An actress from Van Halen s iconic video for Hot for Teacher has recreated the role in a new video. Ruth Silveira, who played the mother in the
1984 video, was recruited to be the mother once again in Joe Hernandez-Kolski and Thing of Twins video for This Rap Makes No Sense.
At the start of both videos, Silveira helps get her son Waldo ready to go out. Now Waldo, I hope you find some friends this year, she says to the boy in Hot for Teacher. In the new video, the line has been changed to, Now Waldo, I know you have a lot of friends you want to see, but you have to stay inside just a little longer.
