Like, Oh My God, Where Are Those '80s Artists Now?


RICK SPRINGFIELD
Then: Springfield was an Australian teen-pop-star-turned-American-daytime-TV heartthrob. “Jessie’s Girl” put him on the U.S. charts in 1981. He left his “General Hospital” job two years later and put on his skinny tie for screaming girls at stadiums around the country.
Now: After successfully fighting depression but failing to make a musical comeback, Springfield returned to “General Hospital” in 2005. But then lightning did strike twice and Rick had a 2008 hit with his album "Venus in Overdrive." Now he gets to play “Jessie’s Girl” to screaming housewives around the country.
