Brooke Shields Gets $12 A Week Allowance | Letterman 

More Brooke Shields segments please

I love the hairstyles of the women hanging out with Steve Martin in Dave's office! People love making fun of the fashions and hairstyles in the Eighties, but I thought they were fabulous! Dave was such a good host to watch on TV back then...so relaxed and witty with his guests.

Good lord, the sparkling blue eyes, sugary sweet voice, the tender years. 🥰😍😘

All these years... I never noticed or told how tall she is... never knew she is 6 foot.

I have only began to fully reslise how often the subject of philosophy is looked down upon ... When truly.... IMO philosophy is king ;)😅🤙

So beautiful !

Leave Steve alone, Dave, he's busy... 🤨 😼

In 1984, $12 a week was a pretty decent allowance for a 19 year old, if your basic expenses were already covered. Hard to believe today!

Americans should be proud to have Brooke Shields. She certainly has elevated the image of the US with her breathtaking beauty and well mannered behavior.

why were people that didnt belong there knocking on their dorm room door? Reporters? I know, stupid question.

If I didn't know an answer on a Spanish test, I put "Soy un pato grande."

She was at Princeton and Jody Foster was at Yale at the same time!

Ball State University on par to Princeton.😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

She’s divine ❤❤❤

Wow! David Letterman did a lot on Late Night TV back in the day. Steve Martin really wanted to have a party. Also, $12 a week for Brooke Shields!? That's almost minimum wage now.

This probably aired six months earlier and was a rebroadcast. I am a blue duck, is what Dave says in French. Odd she didn't catch any of that.

Amazing how she said people used to show up at her dorm room door unannounced from all over the country. I'm around her age and back then there were no locks or security in dormitories. You could just stroll into any one you wanted whenever you felt like it. I have a couple kids in college now and when I tell them that they can't believe it. Shows how much our world has changed.

She looks like Ted Bundy

1984...big puffy hair!

$12 a week in 1984 had the spending power of $36 a week today

Sound editing at the end?

❤🐶😸

Boy sure it was a cold audience that night.

God
