What happened to Ben?

My son’s homework today: Tell the class where your parents got your name.
My eldest son Benjamin was named after Ben Volpeliere-Pierrot, lead singer of ’80s British pop band, Curiosity Killed the Cat. To show my son what this guy looks like, we went to Google and found these:

With the band

Ben says, “Mommy is he bald?” Probably. He was adorable.

This was Ben Volpeliere-Pierrot in 1987

The hat kind of reminds me of the late John F. Kennedy Jr. *sniff*

One thing I wish they had taught us in high school is how the body works when we get older.
Wish they had told us about moisturizing, metabolism, dieting, working out, and growing old.
I was really shocked to see a more recent photo of Ben Volpelierre-Pierrot.
Only two years older than me. I wish it weren’t true.
Mood: Sad

EDIT: Somebody has better Googling skills than me. Apparently this is the correct Ben Volepierre-Pierrot!! Thank God!!
As Grace and I would say, I would still tap that ass!

Oi! Someone bring them to Manila please!!
