So is this a #RealityShow ?

IMHO - #RealityTV came from #TV #Executives trying to figure out how to make the very #cheapest #Programming possible - that would still support #Advertising.

They have been wildly successful in producing the most unwatchable drek imaginable - but the $$$ dollars keep rolling in..

#AI produced #drek consisting of AIs talking to one another? I can hardly imagine anything worse - Will no doubt be hugely popular - winning #Emmys #Grammys, etc.

Hulk Hogan Escorts Cyndi Lauper at the 1985 Grammy Awards

At the 27th Annual Grammy Awards on February 26, 1985, an unforgettable moment occurred when Cyndi Lauper was accompanied by WWF Champion Hulk Hogan, who acted as her bodyguard for the evening. In a series of now-iconic photographs, Hogan can be seen carrying Lauper in his arms, highlighting the playful and surreal energy of the mid-1980s entertainment scene. Lauper won the Best New Artist award that night, surpassing nominees like The Judds and Corey Hart. Her unique style, featuring vibrant orange-red hair and a layered, eclectic outfit, contrasted humorously with Hogan's formal black tuxedo, while he kept his trademark mustache and tan. This collaboration was part of the larger Rock 'n' Wrestling Connection, a promotional crossover between MTV and WWF, which also involved Lauper in storylines with wrestling manager 'Captain' Lou Albano. Hogan, as the face of this movement, symbolized the blending of pop music and professional wrestling, making the evening a defining moment in both pop culture and Grammy history. The combination of music, wrestling theatrics, and over-the-top fashion captured the neon-soaked chaos and high-energy spirit of the 1980s.
