		A Chronicle colleague alerted Culture Blog to a press release sent by a representative for Victor Willis, who was once the lead singer for the Village People (he was the cop) but has had various legal troubles in the past year.
		The difference here seems to be that Victor Willis wrote and sang all the group's hits.
		Moreover, the spokesperson is not suggesting that the Village People can't have replacement singers in the group, what she's really saying is that it's in "bad tase," to perform at the San Mateo County Fair while their original singer is in the San Mateo County jail.

		Where that talent is may be debateable and she is noted for many things....singing is not one of them.

		By 1980 she divorced Willis, (Willis had already left the V.P.'s and had fallen on hard times eventually becoming a homeless drug addict,) and pursued acting instead of singing.
