With partner Henri Belolo, Morali held auditions for 3 more performers and Village People was formed.In addition to Alexander Briley, David Hodo, Glenn Hughes, Jeff Olson, Felipe Rose and Ray Simpson, from 1977 through 1985, short term Village People included Miles Jaye, Randy Jones, Mark Lee, Ray Stephens and Victor Willis.Madonna and Joan Rivers are among the artists who have appeared as opening acts for Village People in Las Vegas, Madison Square Garden, Japans Budokan, Sydneys Horden Pavillion and Hollywoods Greek Theatre.
