Afton Cooper

Afton Cooper
We aren’t sure of this qualifies as a candidate, but out of respect to the popular night time soap opera, Dallas, we are going to move ahead with the nomination of Afton Cooper. Played by Audrey Landers, Cooper was one of many love interests for J.R. Ewing and for our purposes was an aspiring singer; who if we remember correctly played a couple gigs. We guess this qualifies.




The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Dallas (1981-89)

Actor:
Audrey Landers

Songs you might remember:
None

Why you should vote for her:
We don’t have a real good reason.

Why you should not vote for her:
She could have been an aspiring (fill in the blank) and it would have made no difference.

The Afrodisiacs

Afrodisiacs The
Let’s play the pop culture cheese wheel shall we? In what could possibly be the fromagiest (yes, we know we invented a word) we had Dana Plato vs. Janet Jackson to win a spot in Willis Jackson’ group (that never had a gig). The end result was a horrific “Ebony and Ivory” cover with the two, and do we even have to comment beyond this? We didn’t think so.




The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
Diff’rent Strokes (1982)

Actors:
Janet Jackson (Charlene DuPrey)
Dana Plato (Kimberly Drummond)
Todd Bridges (Willis Jackson)

Songs you might remember:
Ebony and Ivory

Why you should vote for them:
We got nothing here.

Why you should not vote for them:
Two words: Dana Plato.

Adult Education

Adult Education
When Hall & Oates officially entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, did it usher in the respect that the great Blue Eyed Soul duo finally deserved? Perhaps the occasional cheesy video and Oates’ moustache didn’t help, but will a Hall & Oates cover band help in the comedy, She’s Out of My League? Considering the other characters mocked it, and the only featured performer in the band was the goofy sidekick named Stainer, we are not sure that it well helps change the incorrect perception of the band, although for the record, they were a good cover band!
Adrian Van Voorhies Seven The
Other then Michael McKean, does it matter who is in the Adrian Van Voorhies Seven?   From the Martin Short show, Primetime Glick, we have the house band featuring Adrian Van Voorhies. Van Voorhies (McKean) was given a fictional backstory as a Dutch classically trained musician who spent time on a cruise ship. As for the rest of the group; does it really matter? Now how do we get a special wing for McKean?




The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
Primetime Glick (2001)

Actors:
Michael McKean
…and others of course

Songs you might remember:
None

Why you should vote for him them:
McKean is a subtle superstar in the Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Why you should not vote for them:
This is not even close to McKean’s best work as a fictional musician; and we assume if you found this page, you already know who we are referring to.
