Line 541:
* Cyndi Lauper, another 30-something in the 1980s who got famous about singing about being a "girl" instead of a woman.
* Pete Burns was 26 when he released his album "Youthquake" and the other members of British New Wave band called "Dead or Alive" were in their late 20s and early 30s.
* [[Spice Girls]]
* The [[Beastie Boys]]
* [[The Beach Boys]] continued to sing love songs to teenage girls even after they became middle-aged, bearded, creepy men. Not counting the unreleased track "Lazy Lizzy", in which Brian sings about stalking an underage girl, the most pedo-worthy track to appear on a Beach Boys disc was undoubtedly "Hey Little Tomboy" - made even worse by a bootlegged outtake in which the Boys seem bent on gang-raping the title character.
Line 549:
* At the age of 26, [[Katy Perry]] played a 13-year-old high school student in the music video of her song "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)".
* Several of [[Taylor Swift]]'s videos, such as "Fifteen" and "The Story of Us", in which she plays high schoolers. Minor examples earlier, as she wasn't that much older than her characters, but it's started getting played more and more straight as she gets older ([[Older Than They Look|though to her credit, she doesn't look it]]).
* In [[BTS (band)|BTS]]'s autobiographical videogame ''BTS World'', they [[Autobiographical Role|interpreted themselves]] in scenes fictionalizing their pre-debut era and early career. Problem is, those scenes took place around 2012-2013, when most of the filming and the photography for the game took place between 2016 and 2018. While the majority of the members doesn't look ''that'' much older than their younger selves, it gets very jarring when actual footage of their early career era appears, since the styling they wore at the time is very different to the one the guys have in the game cutscenes, further highlighting the age difference.
** Averting this trope may be what have caused the decision of the most recent installments of their "BTS Universe" story line to be a videogame with CGI models and a drama with actual actors, as the band members are becoming older than their characters in said 'verse.
