A video of historical importance from 30 years ago: This is the infamous opening song and dance number to the March 29, 1989 awards show, with Rob Lowe singing to Snow White, dancing tables and so much more. This bombed so badly that the show's producer, Allan Carr (who made the movie GREASE) was shunned by Hollywood and never worked again. He died 10 years later, much of that time a recluse.
