lest we forget the classic extended video for Black or White. michael jackson morphing into a cat is air tite proof that he does bad drugs. michael also posed inside the thriller album with a tiger. the tendons in his wrist are even more alarming than his bare chest.

Wasn't there a Duran Duran video with cats in it? Like they were all running around the jungle with awesome 80's makeup and I think it showed a leopard or something.

Good memory! Yes, "Hungry Like the Wolf" by Duran Duran just barely qualifies. If you check out this YouTube video, they show a leopard or jaguar's eyes right around the 2:00 or 2:01 mark.

Another song that I thought of, but it seems not to qualify: Animal by Def Leppard, because the video takes place at a circus.

They show zebras, camels, elephants, and rhinos, and they show a picture of a tiger, but no actual felines, so it doesn't count.

Maybe Def Leppard only hangs out at the lame circus or something. What's wrong with you guys? You've got "leopard" right in your name!

Janet Jackson's "Black Cat"

Spent the better part of an hour trying to come up with one. Lisa Loeb's Stay starts out with a pussycat, but that doesn't count. the Scorpions' Rock You Like a Hurricane, however, has lots o' big cats.
