Two of the performers — Felipe (The Native American) and Alex (The Soldier) — are original members of Village People. Ray, The Cop (and lead singer) has held his position since 1979, excepting a small hiatus in the mid ’80s.

Their dance movies and harmonies were on point all night. It’s like they do this professionally or something.

Thanks, Village People, for being just as awesome as you were in the ’70s and ’80s.
