You know why I love Bobby? Because he cares about people, but also about nature and ecology.

Happy Birthday, Bobby! A very nice guy, by all accounts.

Another...

Sherman mostly retired from music in the 1970s for a career as a paramedic and later police officer, though he still performed and recorded occasionally.

Another...

In 1998, after a 25-year absence, eager fans flocked to see him in concert as part of "The Teen Idol Tour" with Peter Noone, and Davy Jones. Fellow Monkees member Micky Dolenz replaced Davy Jones on the tour in 1999. He did his last concert as a solo performer in Lincoln, Rhode Island on August 25, 2001. Bobby has retired from public life; however, he still does corporate events occasionally as well as his ongoing charities. He was ranked #8 in TV Guide's list of "TV's 25 Greatest Teen Idols" (January 23, 2005 issue).

But this is how I remember Bobby Sherman with all that great hair and blue eyes:

R7, Now, Marcia, this is about Bobby, not Davey. Sometimes people find that they're not favorites, but they're still appreciated. Think of Jan. Think of Bobby Sherman as the Jan Brady of Tiger Beat dreams. He still deserves our attention. You can start a topic on Davey Jones when it's his turn. We know how to take turns, don't we, Marcia? I think you need to go to your room and think about that a bit.

Bobby in 1964 before he became a long haired heart throb.

Anyone remember that show where Roz did a big favor for Frasier, so to repay her, he brings Bobby Sherman to meet her. She freaks out.

When my sister was a teen, she read "16 Magazine" and "Tiger Beat" religiously. The big stars: Davy Jones, Bobby Sherman, Donny Osmond, David Cassidy,...and inexplicably no-talent Sajid Khan.

I wonder if he dreams of Sal Mineo.

That's not Bobby Sherman, R9. It looks like Greg Brady to me.

R14 Whet Sajid khan? Last I remember he was popular in the Philippines.

Why was Sajid Khan ever famous? He had no talent at all. At least Bobby could sing and had 4 top ten hits.

God how my loins burned for him back in the 60's.

I loved Here Come the Brides but, of course, not for the brides. The men on that show were fucking hot and then there was Joan Blondell as 'Lottie.'

He was also said to be quite smart with money and is still quite wealthy. That's saying a lot considering the years he was in show business. The money wasn't that big in those days, but he clearly managed and grew his money quite well.

Didn't he have an affair with another famous man?

Bobby Sherman was the most handsome, sexy singer in pop music. Love him!

Anyone who lives long enough will not age well. It just takes some longer for the good looks to completely go away than others.

Marge Simpson: When I was a girl, I had a crush on Bobby Sherman.

Lisa Simpson: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Yes, he supposedly had an affair with Sal Mineo. There have been arguments from time to time here about whether it was true or not, and the reason I ended up bumping this thread today was that I suddenly remembered that "kcguy" was a friend of Jill Haworth's. She was engaged to Sal Mineo for a few years but broke up with him when, the story goes, she found Sal and Bobby in bed together.

I was going to post in a thread KCGuy had participated in to ask him what he knew about it, found a bunch of threads like this one ... and then I learned that he had recently died. :( One of the Broadway gossip threads was named in his honor--I think #205 or #305, something like that.
