Willie Aames, teen heartthrob of the 1980’s hit TV show “Eight Is Enough,” is now a cruise ship director! If you book a vacation on Oceania cruise lines there’s a good chance your cruise director will be a former Tiger Beat alumni!
Aames often gets recognized by cruise guests, but has a good sense of humor about it,
“I make a joke now where I say, ‘Hi, I’m your favorite ex-teen idol,” he says. “Being a teen idol or being a heartthrob on all the magazines, with Sean Cassidy, Leif Garrett, and Scott Baio –- it was embarrassing! I never understood it. I mean, why me? I never really got it.”
As he plans the ship’s activities and mingles with shuffle-board playing guests, he takes “Oprah: Where Are They Now?” cameras on board to show what his life is like now on the high seas.
