It's the Wednesday mini Dance par-TAY!

Today it's Toni Basil's retro one hit wonder "Hey Mickey." Toni in the late 1960's was a dancer and actress on tv and film, acting opposite Jack Nicholson and dancing in 60's beach musicals to name a few. But by the 80's she became best known for singing this #1 hit song, which is in the music video hall of fame. Fun fact, the record label didn't like the cheerleader chant but eventually they gave in. And Toni is still going strong. She never gave up dancing and works as a celeb choreographer for concert tours and shows. Creating the choreography and dance moves for everyone from Tina Turner's shows to most recently Bette Midler's Las Vegas show. And Toni still looks good.
