Hinton Battle was the original Scarecrow in The Wiz, Mabel King was the original Evillene* (in both the stage show AND the movie), and Tasha Thomas was the original Aunt Em.
*Evillene is the name of the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wiz, so this is a picture of two Wicked Witches of the West meeting (!!!!!!!!!)

thank you gene simmons and paul stanley for creating the hottest band in the world.
you deserve all of the fans, support, and love tenfold.
without you guys, peter criss, ace frehley, the amazing and sadly late eric carr, vinnie vincent, bruce kulick, eric singer, and tommy thayer, KIϟϟ never would have been what it is known for.
if it weren’t for gene and paul’s determination to be something they never saw on stage, KIϟϟ wouldn’t have even existed.
you all undoubtedly have made a difference in rock ‘n’ roll in its entirety.
we love you and will never let KIϟϟ be forgotten. <3
