Vintage Video: Aerobicise Keeps It Greasy



I haven't posted anything for the past few days due to the fact that I had to take care of some Real Life Stuff like look for a job and check my Food Stamp Benefits Card to see if my shit hit yet. What? You thought that writing Beezo Blue pays the rent? Please. I'm wolfing down a piping hot styrofoam cup full of Oodles Of Noodles as we speak. But I digress.

And since I haven't gotten around to posting a Music Throwback Sunday item this week, I've come across the next best thing. Back in '82, Showtime used to air an exercise program which consisted of what looked like sweat-drenched, lesbian-friendly models, bumping booties and flinging their legs in the air to the beat of an electro-funk disco track, all in the guise of physical fitness. Yeah, right. This was no doubt the daddy of soft porn cable. Equal parts sexy and hilarious, it was an instant classic. And if Beyonce doesn't copy this for her next video, well, then I suppose I'll just about lose all faith in humankind.
