Ethan Trex posted a great article this week on the strange early jobs of celebrities. Here’s something else some celebrities did before they got famous…appear on The Dating Game. Read on to see Steve Martin, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Jackson and more.
Andy Kaufman gets stumped by a Santa Claus question.
Steve Martin is naked.
Arnold Schwarzenegger shares his measurements with the contestants.
John Ritter wins dinner at Crazy Ed’s Restaurant.
And Suzanne Somers wins a trip to the Bahamas with a poet.
Farrah Fawcett used to be a brunette. Who knew?
Phyllis Diller chooses a date for her son.
Michael Jackson was a little young to be dating, wasn’t he?
And this clip of Vincent Price asking three guys for a date is just plain weird.
