Famous Informative Speech

Perhaps to you, Aerosmith ignites memories of your drunk uncle at every Christmas party but he's not the only one who loves the famous 1970's rock band. They're called one of the best ever for a reason. Hence, it's no surprise that drunk uncle's and celebrities alike share the same love for Steven Tyler and the boys. The list is a long one but we managed to narrow it down to the top 5 with Donald Trump, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, Rihanna and Zayn Malik.

1. DONALD TRUMP

In October of 2015, Donald Trump was nothing more than a reality T.V star, a real-estate mogul and a joke of a presidential candidate. A year later, Donald Trump is gearing up for a stint in the White House. Does he have Aerosmith to thank? Apparently, frontman Steven Tyler warned Donald Trump about using their song "Dream On" during his presidential campaign in 2015.

KATY PERRY

Katy Perry is a pop star first but she occasionally dabbles into the grittier side of rock. One example of this is Katy Perry's collaboration with Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry (no relation). At the 2009 MTV Music Awards, Katy Perry and Joe Perry joined forces for an inspiring cover of Queens "We Will Rock You". Furthermore, this is the same show where Katy Perry and then boyfriend Russel Brand met. They can thank Joe Perry for that.

3. JUSTIN BIEBER

Say what you will about Justin Bieber, but the kid knows how to put on a live show. Just check out his cover of Aerosmith's "Walk this Way". While it's certainly not exactly a note for note rendition of the rock classic, it pays tribute to one of the greats with a flair of Justin Bieber style.

4. RIHANNA

Changing up the pace, we move from Justin Bieber to Rihanna. Justin Bieber lives in his own world but Rihanna, well, Rihanna is just like us all. She too likes to get stoned, buy snacks and sing Aerosmith in the car. Well, people caught Rihanna doing just that on 4/20. In Hawaii of all places. Ok, maybe she isn't like the rest of us. Neither is Zayn Malik

5. ZAYN

    At first glance, you wouldn’t think that hard rock legends Van Halen and pop punk band Blink 182 have much in common. As far as sound goes, that’s pretty much the case, the two bands are worlds apart in terms of genre and their respective fan bases. However, what they have in common is something much more fundamental. In 1986 Van Halen had become one of the most popular bands of their generation, but a nasty divorce between lead singer David Lee Roth and the rest of the band left them in a tough spot. That’s when they turned to Sammy Hagar and began a new chapter of Van Halen.…

    Although this part does not last long, it is important, as it is clear that they are preparing for a big moment later in the song. A strong feeling of expectation is left with the listener as the big sound of the group fades softly into the background, allowing a piano and the vocals to dominate the sing’s first section. In this part, Steven Tyler sings his first verse, exclaiming his enchantment with a woman that he has romantically lost himself in the moment with. It is this style of sweet, underwhelming simplicity that contrasts with and brings out the schmaltz of the chorus.…
