I was wondering... If blackface is a no-go, how about brown-face? I'm just thinking of old programmes like "Menudas Estrellas" in which little Spanish girls got all made up and had their skin look darker to sing "I Will Always Love You" trying to look like Whitney Houston, or "Colours of the Wind" again dressed up and with their skin darker to look like Pocahontas.

I also like Harry Connick Jr -particularly I like his music but I understand why so many women like just him-. This video makes me feel proud of being a human being as he is, even when it may be one of the few things we have in common (obviously my voice isn't one of them but sure you already know that, haha). His speech at the end is amazing, encouraging. And, let me say, so respectful for both his country and the audience and public he is. The man has a pair of pelotas. Amazing post.
