Look fast during the party crashing scene. In one shot, one of the punks pulls the table cloth off the table and then someone who has been sitting under it throws the table over. I'm 99% sure that's RDJ, which would make sense because he and SJP were together at the time. Someone check it out and tell me I'm wrong, I don't think I am. That needs to be labeled under the "trivia" section on the page, don't you think?
shareYou're right it really does look like RDJ. I believe it's him.
shareYes,that is Robert Downey, Jr.
Hey, did you ever try dunking a potato chip in champagne? It's real crazy!
How do you know it is for sure? I think it looks alot like him, but I've just not of heard of certain confirmation.

I grew up in the 80's and I have followed RDJ from the beginning. He is very recognizable in this cameo. See link below.

it is definitely him.
its also around the same time he played the punk.. in back to school with rodney dangerfield.
I am just surprised it has never been confirmed.. he was pretty well known at the time and on SNL with AMH.
he also did tuff turf with james spader.rdj played the drummer in a punk band & also did less than zero with spader.
shareHow cool! I've seen this movie a hundred times and I'm watching it now, so I will have to pay close attention. I'm very surprised I never noticed it before. P.S. It wouldn't be a cameo if he wasn't famous yet, right? More like an extra.

Robert Downey Jr and Sarah Jessica Parker were a couple during this movie ? What ? What were their ages in this period - 1985 ? Wasn't Sarah an 80's teenager ? She might have been under age wasn't she ? She's playing the part of a teenage girl who attends private school and rebels against her parents by dancing on Dance TV with a hot partner. But she's not an adult in this movie. She's clearly under the age of 18. How can she be with Robert Downey Jr ? How old was Robert D. Jr ? Were they both teens and a teen couple at this time ? Someone confirm their ages for me because otherwise I'm going to think that Sarah J. Parker was under age and being in a relationship with an older guy and that's really wrong!
Considering they were both born in 1965, I think it's safe to assume she was dating someone the same age as her at the time. But they would have both been around 20 the time she was filming Girls Just Want To Have Fun.
shareNever noticed that - but I turned on the movie and went to that scene, and I'm pretty sure it's him - looks an awful lot like him to me!
shareYup, it's him.
