It's always exciting when you spot your favorite star in a music video. Artists have been employing the clever lure of celebrity cameos for decades, and we can never get enough of it.

And don't even get us started on all the familiar faces in the visuals for Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's "WAP" and Taylor Swift's "You Need to Calm Down." Some appearances you probably even forgot about, like Keke Palmer in Ludacris and Mary J. Blige's "Runaway Love" or Saoirse Ronan in Ed Sheeran's "Galway Girl." The list goes on, so without further ado, we present you with some of the best celebrity music-video cameos!
