The new Netflix documentary about the recording of 1985’s “We Are The World” brought nostalgia to viewers as well as the backstory behind the presence of legendary actor and comedian Dan Aykroyd. The Greatest Night in Pop featured archival footage and interviews with the performers‚ including Dan. In the charity single’s video‚ one can spot Dan in the back and next to the late Harry Belafonte‚ and this had piqued fans’ curiosity for years as to how he got there. Everyone else‚ including Bob Dylan‚ Diana Ross‚ and Michael Jackson‚ were established music stars‚ making Dan the odd one out. Why did Dan Aykroyd sing “We Are The World”? Youtube video screenshot Although the movie says he was on a “wishlist” of performers alongside Bette Midler‚ David Byrne‚ and Van Halen‚ Dan revealed in 2009 that he joined accidentally. “I was looking for a money manager‚ not a talent manager. But he said‚ so long as you are here‚ would you like to come and join this ‘We are the World’ thing?” he said‚ recalling that he met the manager while “interviewing business managers in L.A.” with his dad. RELATED: Dan Aykroyd Gives Details Of Traumatic Experience That Almost Ended His Comedy Career Before It Started Initially‚ he was skeptical but obliged because he considered his experience with selling “a few million records with the Blues Brothers” relevant to the music scene. “I thought‚ ‘how do I fit in here?’” he said. “In my other persona‚ I am a musician‚ so I showed up and was a part of it…” Speaking of singing‚ Dan did a hip-hop track with Tom Hanks two years later that ended up being a terrible joke.

And he himself had to be like‚ what am I doing here and I can’t believe I wore this outfit!” another said of the Ghostbusters star.
