TONY ATLAS REVEALS FRIENDSHIP WITH EXILED FILIPINO PRESIDENT OVER FOOT
FETISH
Before his death, exiled former President of the Philippines
Ferdinand Marcos was embroiled in the international scandal of human rights
violations, corruption, and the suggestion that his regime was responsible for
the assassination of rival politician Aquino. Marcos' wife Imelda became a
punchline during this this chaos, as it was revealed that she housed thousands
of pairs of shoes in massive, room-sized closets in their mansion. No secret
that women like shoes. But it seems there may have been more to that massive
collection, as "Mr. USA" Tony Atlas reveals rather startlingly in the latest
release in the YouShoot DVD series, which went on sale today at
www.kayfabecommentaries.com.
In this remarkably candid episode of the
always edgy and irreverent DVD show, Atlas claims he and the exiled, shamed
leader forged a friendship over a common interest...the worship of women's feet
and shoes. Tony suggests in the show that the massive rooms filled with shoes
were at the behest of Ferdinand Marcos, as a result of his fetish. Tony Atlas
opens up (waaaay open) about the origins of his facewalking fetish and how his
lifetime of asking women to partake in this activity led Marcos and Atlas to
each other in the 80s. Marcos was exiled from the Philippines to Hawaii.
In the shoot DVD, Atlas reveals that a psychiatrist uncovered the root cause of
the foot fetish -- a young Tony Atlas didn't walk until three years old. So in
those formative years, he spent an inordinate amount of time around the feet of
the women that his mother had around the house. And Atlas, like most fetishists,
is very specific about what "works" for him, and what doesn't. No heels (those
were worn by church ladies in rural Virginia), just flat rubber-soled shoes for
his face, please. Those were the shoes of the "working women" who visited his
house.
Though Atlas does spend a great deal of time discussing, musing,
and playing games about shoes (yes games, it's YouShoot kids!), there's also
lots of wrestling, steroids, and a controversial chapter about race in the two
hour and fifteen minute edition of the shoot-DVD series that has become a
phenomenon. Atlas implies that African American wrestlers got an easier ride
than white wrestlers and the biggest enemy to a black wrestler was not Bill
Watts or Dick Murdoch (who Tony reveals as a card-carryoing member of the KKK),
but rather every other black wrestler.
Tony Atlas is outspoken and a ton
of fun on the YouShoot: Tony Atlas DVD which is available at
www.kayfabecommentaries.com.
