Mae and her musclemen, that act she did at the Sahara Hotel was legendary.
ReplyDeleteShe sang songs, cracked double entendre one-liners, while the boys did some antics of their own. They would wear robes with shorts underneath with their backs to the audience, giving the impression they wear nude. One night, as a joke, one of her bodybuilders was actually naked to shock old Mae. Another time one of them flashed his ass at the audience. It was said some of them were more than bros.
Boys will be boys. -Rj
I can't imagine "old Mae" would have been shocked by the sight of a cock. I believe she recruited quite a few of her Muscle Marys from gay bars... Jx
