Puttin On The Hits in the 80's: Sheila E

I just learned about this because Dlisted.com posted a clip of people lip synching to the Jets.

ANd then this next to it:

I gotta give these people props: At first It hought it WAS Sheila performing on the show. They got the whole Romance 1600 band down..... from Suzy, to Steph..... and the costumes, the dancing..... it's unreal!

Shelia was NEVER that Fat and the lipsyncing wasn't perfect, but it looked interesting.

Allen Fawcett lol

That was pretty cool actually, the costumes were on key. We had a similar show in the UK 'Stars In Their Eyes', except they sung too, not just mimed. smile

You thought that chick playing Shelia was fat??(!!!) ...Nah.

From a distance they looked like Shelia's 1985 band. I remember seeing a bunch of (bad) P impersonators on that show.

That was interesting...one thing though - the stage wasn't big enough for "Goldie Fox" to do the run like Sheila did. Probably wasn't a good idea to do it...

The woman doing Sheila was in no way fat!!! And I read on Youtube that unfortunately she passed away (I don't know if that is true or not) but if it is RIP.

I thought they weregreat!

Also, when Sheila peformed this on SNL she didn't have a lot of room to do the slide either!! smile
