    Memories of Dick Clark

    More from KCRep

    Dick Clark American Icon

     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     KCRep remembers how ageless Dick Clark seemed on television. She says her fondest memory of Dick Clark was having dancing parties at her home with friends from around the neighborhood while they watched American Bandstand.
    - Jareen, CNN iReport producer

    My earliest memories of Dick Clark is watching American Bandstand, I would invite my friends in the neighborhood to come watch in the den and we would all dance around the wooden floor. When Chubby Checker introduced the Twist, well, we all went a little crazy for a while.

    The Twist
    The Mashed Potato
    The Jerk
    not your parents dances for sure and not like DWTS but fun fun fun and good times.

    I remember always thinking how Dick Clark never seemed to age from year to year and I wondered how he did that. Good living and being a good person, that must have been what it was.

    10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 New York on New Years Eve will never be the same. Rest in peace Mr. Clark.
