Before Billy Idol was Hot in City by singing with himself, he was singing Valley of the Dolls with Generation X. If it wasn’t for his lips I never would’ve recognized the 23 year old singer performing in 1979.

Billy Idol was doing a show in Vegas yesterday and for some reason the 54 year old singer decided to lift his shirt. Those poses might have been sexy back when his songs were hits, but now it is kind of gross. Even though his abs don’t look that bad, I don’t want to be doing like the song that is not on that set list and rocking the Cradle of Love with him.
Is it just me or does Billy Idol look more like Simon LeBon (no offense Simon) than himself? Without the spikes and the gnarl, I hardly recognize him. Hopefully he still sounds as good as he did when he was in his prime, something we will find out when he performs on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on June 24th. The same night Regis Philbin is also going to be a guest on the show. That is definitely going to be an interesting JKL!. I am going to try my hardest to go to because I am sure there is going to be a lot to talk about the next day!!!

I have to admit I just love his sugary sweet Christmas videos! I don’t know why, but there is just something about them. Maybe there is a brainwashing effect to them and I am brainwashed? Either way, they are just happy! Tis the season to be happy!!!
