Remember the hilarious video for Lionel Richie’s 1984 hit, “Hello”?

Well, if you are too young or don’t remember, it was basically about a man who was in love with some blind chick. At one point in the video, the woman makes him a sculpture of his head. A little creepy, yes. But what was even creepier was the way it looked.

Recently, even Lionel himself laughed at the head saying he thought it was terrible.

Last year, an art class in the UK decided to do what they called “The Hello Experiment” based on the sculpture in the original video.

What would happen, they asked, if the class were blindfolded while trying to make a sculpture of Richie’s head?

And with that, they played a little inspirational music and went to work. Check out the video to see how they did with their sculptures. There’s a couple good ones, but mostly in a comical way.

Watch ‘The Hello Experiment’ here.

Maybe the original sculpture wasn’t so bad after all..

”Forget about surviving 40 years in the music business. Just surviving 27 years of Nicole Richie has been a struggle-and-a-half, I want to tell you. I stand here as a survivor, I want you to know, for all the parents out there.”
