CHAU3145 This is a rare 7" x 5" hand signed photo for Al Pillay female impersonator and pop singer who has personally autographed the souvenir where his signature rests perfectly accompanying his portrait in mint condition.
_His first TV appearances soon followed with stints on C4's first "yoof" program Whatever You Want with Keith Allen and Four For Tonight with Ruby Wax. A parallel career soon developed when he caught the eyes and ears of Stock, Aitken, and Waterman, who wrote and produced his worldwide disco smash 'Pistol in My Pocket.' As Humberside's answer to Sylvester, the early 1980s were spent touring the world's top clubs in a whirl of sequins and feathers, PAs and limos (yes, really!). His most prominent successes were in Australia, Paris, and Italy, as well as having the No. 1 spot on Brit dance floors throughout the 1980s._
_When the call came from The Comic Strip Presents... Al was ready. Ready to steal the show in Gino, Susie, Consuela, and The Bullshitters. His performance in the movie 'The Supergrass' inspired Peter Richardson to write 'Eat The Rich' as a vehicle for Al's multi-faceted talent. Also smitten with La Pillay was Bristol Funkster Gary Clail who invited him to contribute to his Top Ten hit Human Nature. The sight of Al on Top Of The Pops in Vegas-style headdress singing 'Let the Carnival begin, every pleasure, every sin' brightened up many a Thursday night._
