Their original career was derailed by 1980's ''Film/CantStopTheMusic'', a musical comedy film directed by Nancy Walker. It is a pseudo-biography of the group [[VeryLooselyBasedOnATrueStory which bears only a vague resemblance to the actual story of their formation]]. ''Newsweek'' described the movie like this: "''Can't Stop the Music'' ushers in a whole new concept in entertainment -- it's the first all-singing, all-dancing horror film; the ''Film/DawnOfTheDead1978'' of the disco era." This movie, along with ''Film/{{Xanadu|1980}}'', inspired John Wilson to create the UsefulNotes/{{Golden Raspberry Award}}s to honor the worst that Hollywood had to offer, and contributed to rendering the (live-action) movie musical genre [[PopularityPolynomial functionally dead for about twenty years]].

Changed line(s) 42 (click to see context) from:
* {{Leatherman}}: Glenn Hughes. His Leatherman persona directly influenced [[HellBentForLeather Rob Halford]] of Music/JudasPriest. Ironically, for as much as his IconicOutfit became a defining image in gay culture, Hughes was actually straight. When Hughes died he was reportedly buried in that very outfit.

Village People are a concept {{disco}} group consisting of gay stereotypes formed in the late [[TheSeventies 1970s]]. The group is as well known for their on-stage costumes as for their catchy tunes and suggestive lyrics. Original members were: policeman (Victor Willis), American Indian chief (Felipe Rose), cowboy (Randy Jones), construction worker (David Hodo), leatherman (Glenn Hughes) and Military man (Alex Briley). For the release of "In the Navy", both Willis and Briley appeared temporarily as sailors. Originally created to target disco's primarily gay fan base by featuring stereotypical gay fantasy personas, the band's popularity quickly brought them into mainstream. The group is seen by some music critics as less serious for their camp style, appearance and musical choices.
