Choreographer-turned-singer Toni Basil became a one-hit wonder with her 1982 monster hit, "Mickey." Guess what she looks like now!

Thanks TMZ for taking down my original comment!
Toni Basil is a bitch. I met her and she was rude!

I'm laughing. I never comment on this site, but have to this time. What is all this "that's Pat Benatar" stuff? That is so NOT Pat Benatar. Have you seen her recently? She has aged WAY better than Toni. Was a Sr. when Mickey was a hit and I would recognize her then and now anywhere. She looks like herself; just a bit older. No way would I compare her to Pat Benatar with that elongated nose area! Nothing against it; it's just NOT Pat Benatar.

75. Toni is an inspiration. I followed Toni since she was in the group "The Lockers". She is a pure dancer. She looks young because she is physically young. I know this because I have been dancing with her in a studio. Her work ethic is the fountain of youth. Most people grow old because they give in to physical limitations. Toni is driven to do challenging choreography from others to keep herself sharp by dancing. Dancing can keep both the mind and body sharp by learning to adjust to limitations not give in to them. Toni has found the fountain of youth through keeping her mind and body strong by dancing. She says it all the time. I NEED TO DANCE. It keeps your mind and body strong. I hope people would take the positive view of others and she their strengths instead of looking for negativity to make themselves feel better.
She knows the formula for the fountain of youth. She is an amazing dancer and I hope to learn her work ethic.

DUH again! The BEFORE pic is Pat Benatar, not the after! I definitely 'memba' Toni Basil AND her video on MTV...vividly, and if that's Toni Basil in the before photo, then it was completely overlooked all this time that she is Pat Benatar's FREAKIN' TWIN. And whoever said that that is Toni in her Mickey video, you better go check out YouTube and see the video again as methinks you haven't seen it in a while, if at all. Toni had short bangs and ponytails in that video, 'kay? Go here to amazon to view her album: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000002Z8S

Why does everybody keep saying that's Pat Benatar?...Yes they look VERY similar at that stage of their career and I`m sure Pat is by 100 times more well known but you can see the difference by the nose more than anything..Pats nose the nostiles aren`t as upwardly open

The first pic is Pat Benatar. She is wearing a cheerleaders outfit in the pic, but that doesn't make her Toni Basil. You guys really blew it this time!
