On the liner notes for the classic album Judy Garland At Carnegie Hall it says the fans in the audience who stormed the stage included Rock Hudson.

Funny his image was changed decades later. Aunt Bee on Andy Griffith had a framed picture of him on her dresser.

The album was one of 50 recordings chosen by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry.

When I was very young and naive in my early 20s I kind of liked a guy who was homosexual. Looking back I have no idea how in the world I felt this way other than a motherly protective instinct. I was dating an extremely handsome, 6’4 guy who girls were all constantly after but left me cold, he was so conceited. Always looking in the mirror.

But this homosexual guy was so messed up, so vulnerable I guess I feel protective of him, felt sorry for him. His parents both died very shortly before I met him and in the same month. He was only about 22. Drank themselves to death.

He was always wanting to do this act he constantly practiced asking me to watch. Rehearsing though he never went for any auditions or anything. He wanted to perform as a female impersonator. He only did one impersonation. Judy Garland. Badly. Now I can never see Judy Garland without that memory. Kinda wish I could forget it.

Along with Cher and Madonna. For some reason, which I have never been able to figure out, gay guys are attracted to women they perceive as being "glamourous" (but obviously not a sexual attraction)

Generational thing. Maybe the current generation doesn't even know who she was.

Maybe take or leave her as she was, not based on what homosexuals thought about her 50 years ago.

We should not deprive ourselves or clean presentations of exceptional talent. She was one of the greatest all around talents of all time. I like listening to and watching Judy Garland. She never pushed the stuff on the public either. I will not allow the bad to pick my favorite artists for me.

Here's one to offend EVERYBODY

Because every person in "this crowd" must think alike on every topic, right?
