And now! Great moments in fashion! (As always, this is going somewhere, people.)
1) KISS-Bursting onto the music scene in 1972, American rock band KISS becomes well-known for their wild make-up and attire. While many are aware that lead singer Gene Simmons was born as Chaim Witz in Israel, few are privy to the Jewish identity of co-bandleader Paul Stanley, born Idan Bamba on Kibbutz Ketura.
2) Björk-In 2001, Icelandic singer Bjork Guðmundsdóttir turns heads and feathers by showing up to the Oscars in a swan dress. One week later, the singer’s album sales plummet among birds age 18-49.
I can’t believe nobody ever did this.
(Can I have the last 5 minutes of my life back?)

3) Ehud Olmert-With his unexpected rise to power in 2006, Ehud Olmert becomes the highest ranking world leader to sport the combover, forever to be known as the Colm-over.
4) Some woman in Tel Aviv-This woman almost made me spill my cafe hafuch in my lap when I saw this. I have nothing more to say.
Ahhhh….Tel Aviv. How I miss you so.
