Rubioed the Wrong Way

Or
Whipped
The Del Rubio Triplets can start their reunion tour with the death of Milly, the last of the Grim Reaper’s hat trick, at the age of 89. The trio, the Boyds by birth, were a camp sensation of the 1980s with dyed bright blonde bouffant s, gaudy blue eye shadow and showing a lot more leg than any 60-year-olds should wear while offering bizarre interpretations of contemporary classics, such as an acoustic guitar cover version of Devo’s Whip It, which they reprised in an episode of Sliders and in a McDonald’s commercial. Other appearances included Peggy’s aunts on Married... with Children, Full House, The Golden Girls, Night Court, New Monkees and Pee-wee's Playhouse. The group ended with Eadie’s death in 1996, and got even quieter with Elena’s in 2001.
