I believe Rick Perry was a male cheerleader. Probably not what we were thinking of…
I don’t recall exactly when it was, but it was a sad day for me when I realized that almost no woman actually looks like the amazing women you see on TV, in movies, magazines, etc. It was a similarly sad day when I realized that almost no “singers” actually sound like the sound on their albums (for the younguns here, albums are what us old folks call a collection of mp3’s put together by a band or singer and sold to the public on a phyiscal medium).
As I recall, there were white albums and black albums. This was during segregation.
