Bobby Sherman Dies at 81

He was a massive pop idol and TV actor in the late 60's/early 70's, then went into law enforcement in L. A. A LOT of boomer women are feeling really heartbroken today, recalling his posters on their bedroom walls.

Admirably, he knew when his teen idol career was over and got into an adult job. Not all performers do the same. I saw a pre- concert photo of Barry Manilow not long ago and he looked like a corpse. SCTV made this sendup a few years ago...

That Perry Como skit was one of the most hilarious parodies on SCTV ever!!
