Before Jon Hamm was Mad Men's main man, he was just another slightly awkward guy looking for love on a TV dating game show. Thanks to recently unearthed footage of Jon's 1995 appearance on The Big Date, the world got to see the actor's pre-fame "fabulosity" at its finest. Jon himself was also treated to this blast from the past, and on Tuesday's The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson, he poked some fun at his younger self. In a vintage clip from the cringe-worthy appearance, Jon promised prospective date Mary Carter a "fabulous foot massage."

The White Stripes split up. The Black Keys hit their success into the stratosphere. Death From Above 1979 reform. It’s all go in the world of the rock ‘n’ roll guitar/drum garage duos. So it looks set to continue with us Brits getting in our foot (feet?) in on the hullaballo.
Formed in 2004 it’s been a long time coming for Blood Red Shoes to stake their claim as ‘go to duo’, but with The White Stripes stricken from the record, The Black Keys success at an all time high because of the aforementioned split and their constant mining of the garage blues well, Dfa 1979 as unpredictable as ever and this reunion likely to be short lived; what better time than now?
2012 (specifically March 26th) sees the release of their third studio album, their strongest album yet and their best shot at the big leagues.
