Was that Isaac I saw in the original "Men in Black" movie?

I may have been imagining this, but I saw a tape of Isaac playing in the background of the original "Men in Black" movie. It is in the scene inside headquarters, where Tommy Lee Jones is first explaining to Will Smith about the special alien life forces that are allowed to inhabit this planet. Several tv monitors are on in the background, showing various celebrities who are supposedly aliens. I remember one is Sylvester Stallone. Down in the lower left is a monitor with a (much younger) video of Isaac. I swear it is him.

Of course, this might have already been discovered by some other sharp eyed viewers.  If so, I apologize for a duplicate thread. I never would have known who it was when the original came out.

Have a feeling that if the same movie were to be made today, perhaps it would be Lori Goldstein instead?

@Colinka, Yes, IM was in MIB.  According to Wikipedia: He appears briefly in the film Men in Black (1997) as one of the "celebrity aliens" granted asylum in Earth.
