Two newspaper props seen on screen in the opening moments of the music video for Bette Midler's cover of "Beast of Burden" by The Rolling Stones. These props come directly from the personal collection of the music video's director, Allan Arkush.

These fictional "The National Tabloid" newspapers feature cover story headlines with accompanying black and white photographs. One headline reads, "Bette Dumps Sheik For Mick!" with a photograph of the Sheik (Martin von Haselberg) looking despondent underneath. The other headline reads, "Mick Dumps Everyone For Bette!!" with a photograph of multiple women dabbing their tear-stricken eyes with handkerchiefs. The interior of the newspapers contain the same two pages reprinted to fill out each prop.

Midler recorded "Beast of Burden" for her 1983 album No Frills and it was released as the third single off the album, becoming a top ten single in Europe. The music video for the song featured Midler and Mick Jagger teaming up to perform the song and was nominated for three awards in the first ever edition of the MTV Video Music Awards in 1984.
