Casey Kasem ( Kemal Amin Kasem) is a Lebanese-American broadcaster and animation voice actor. Besides his radio program, American Top 40, Kasem has done character voices for Saturday morning cartoons, most notably Scooby Doo (as Shaggy) and Filmation's version of Batman (as Robin, a role he carried over into Super Friends). He portrayed Cliffjumper and Bluestreak in the generation one Transformers tv series and reprised Cliffjumper in the 1986 film. He was also the off-camera quizmaster on the U.S. version of 100%, and the announcer for NBC's Saturday Morning Ad Bumpers.

The group Bananarama has such a light, cutesypie sound that they make The Go Gos sound like Led Zeppelin by comparison.
