Captain Lou Albano Dies At 76

Captain Lou Albano Dies at 76

by Mike Krumboltz Captain Lou Albano, a former professional wrestler and actor (though never a sea captain), recently passed away at the age of 76 of natural causes. In the wake of his death, searches surged on the man and his unique body of work. While primarily a manager in the World Wrestling Federation, Albano may have been best known for his role in the '80s music video "Girls Just Want to Have Fun." Albano played the part of Cyndi Lauper's ill-humored dad who simply couldn't understand his daughter's desire to cut loose.
