We love parodies, and chances are that most of the people reading this do too.  Sometimes, though parodies just go horribly wrong, and though they don’t often spring to mind, allow us to remind you of Right Said Fred.

This muscle bound group may have been from England, but the shaven head youngsters looked like a modern day advertisement for the Hitler Youth.  Their attempt was to mock the arrogance of fashion models by proclaiming that they are too sexy for various things.  This includes anything from parties, a hat and a pussycat. Yes a pussycat.  Their attempt to portray this profession as shallow seems so strange from a group who were lacking depth themselves.

Surprisingly, these goofs actually had a decent shelf life in their native England, but we have to hand it to the British as once you are a star there, you are star for life.  Thankfully, that isn’t the case on the Western side of the Atlantic as they have fallen off the catwalk for good here.  Guess they were too sexy for us.
