Billy Crystal made a hilarious reference to that in his "Mahvelous" album:

"...I got a good job, you know, this whole "You loooook..." thing... you know, everywhere I go, they say it. Like, EVERYBODY. Like 22 Mart Street, Peking duck (in Chinese accent) "Ohhh, you look maaaavhlus...how you, Mistah Crystal...ah so, you look mahvelus...ah...better to look good than, uh...I still workin' on it..." It's fun. A lot better than what I used to get when I was doing "Soap"...(in New York blue collar voice) "HEY! FAGGOT!" Like I said, its all good..."

I had a friend in college who was gay. He played Bassoon, and French for Bassoon is "Fagot". The sheet music always has the name of the instrument at the top, and I used to tease him, "Faggot".
