π Happy 76th Birthday to the incomparable music genius and cultural icon Stevie Wonder β born May 13.
A true honor for Jody Watley to perform with one of her greatest inspirations. Stevie joined Jody on her hit βSome Kind of Lover,β creating an unforgettable musical moment on his 1988 MTV Special βCharactersβ
Another iconic collaboration came during MTVβs 1988 Characters special, where Jody joined Stevie alongside Stevie Ray Vaughan and Salt-N-Pepa for an electrifying performance of βSuperstition.β

On this day β May 2, 1987 β Jody Watleyβs blockbuster, Grammy-nominated debut solo single βLooking For A New Loveβ climbed to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, where it remained for an incredible four consecutive weeks. The now classic hit
βLooking For A New Loveβ also introduced one of pop cultureβs most unforgettable catchphrases β βHasta La Vista, Babyβ β years before it became globally popularized in Terminator 2: Judgment Day by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The single reached #1 on the Billboard R&B and Dance charts, launching one of the most influential solo careers of the late β80s. π₯πΆ
The question is: what song and artist held the #1 spot and kept βLooking For A New Loveβ from reaching the top of the Hot 100? π
