Hair-hoppers



Two birthday boys on this day, linked by a common muse?

House fave - and several-times featured "Totty of the Day" Mr Johnny Depp blows out 51 candles today. We'd like to help him with the "blow" bit...

The late, great Mr Jackie Wilson - another favourite of the genius that is John Waters - would have celebrated his 80th birthday today.

For this Tacky Music Monday let's pay tribute to the three of them, with a routine by the latter that could easily have been lifted straight from one of Mr Waters' musical movies - Hairspray or Cry Baby [Mr Depp at his most gorgeous] - it's Baby Workout!

Check out those bobby-soxers! And those trousers...


John Christopher "Johnny" Depp II (born 9th June 1963)

Jack Leroy "Jackie" Wilson, Jr. (9th June 1934 – 21st January 1984)
