Celebrities, celebrities everywhere!

Last month, Taylor Swift showed off her squad by assembling a team of superheroes for her “Bad Blood” music video. Last week, Madonna dropped her “B*tch I’m Madonna” video which featured cameos by Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj, Diplo, Kanye West and more, proving that people love music videos that are filled with their favourite A-listers.

However, this star-studded video treatment is nothing new. Michael Jackson did it a quarter-century ago and artistes including Katy Perry, Paul McCartney, Johnny Cash, and Jay Z have all produced some of the most amazing visuals featuring some of the most famous people.

That being said, here’s a list of our favourite celebrities-filled music videos:

1. Michael Jackson – “Liberian Girl”

YouTube video

Taken from the late King Of Pop’s seventh studio album Bad, “Liberian Girl” was the ninth single to be released by Michael Jackson. The video accompanying the track featured a number of his celebrity friends amongst whom were Beverly Johnson, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Sherman Hemsley, Brigitte Nielsen, Paula Abdul, Carl Weathers, Whoopi Goldberg, Quincy Jones, Jackie Collins, Amy Irving, Jasmine Guy, Rosanna Arquette, Billy Dee Williams and Lou Diamond Phillips.

“Liberian Girl” was not the only music video featuring his famous friends. A couple of years later, he had Iman, Eddie Murphy and Magic Johnson in his music video for “Remember The Time“.

2. Paul McCartney – “Queenie Eye”

YouTube video

Two years back, the Beatles’ Sir James Paul McCartney, better known as Paul McCartney, released the music video for his single “Queenie Eye”. The video directed by Simon Aboud was filmed at the Abbey Road Studios. It featured cameos by Johnny Depp, Meryl Streep, Gary Barlow, Lily Cole, James Corden, Alice Eve, Jeremy Irons, Jude Law, Kate Moss, Sean Penn, Chris Pine and Tracey Ullman.

Last year, Pharrell broke the internet with the release of his “Despicable Me 2” soundtrack single “Happy“. Not only did he get people from around the world recording their own parody videos, he also launched a “24-hour music video” that included a bunch of celebrities making appearances throughout the day to sing along to the looped tack.

Those celebrities were Jamie Foxx, Steve Carell, Magic Johnson, Jimmy Kimmel, Miranda Cosgrove, Buddy, Tyler the Creator, Cyrcle, Gavin DeGraw, Urijah Faber, Michaella Tastad, Luisa Fernanda Espinosa, Francesco, Ryan Heffington, Whit Hertford, Sarunas J.
