Not even the man himself is immune from getting Rick Rolled. Rick Astley’s 1987 hit “Never Gonna Give You Up” has found a second coming with the viral internet trend of “Rickrolling.” However, Astley, 55, wasn’t too keen about the online meme at first. “Rickrolling” refers to people who are tricked into clicking on a hyperlink that leads to the music video to his single. The clip has since reached more than 1 billion views YouTube.
The ’80s rocker admitted he was annoyed at first by the trend, which has picked up steam in recent years. But his daughter helped him warm up to it. He recently chatted with Fox News about his iconic single, getting “Rickrolled” himself and whether he ever pulled the prank on someone else. Astley revealed that his friend, who was living in California, “Rickrolled” him “before I even knew what it was.”
