Al Sharpton's permed and slicked back tresses might be misguided, outdated, and just, really, really bad, but he's never going to change his 'do, no matter how many times David Banner calls him a "permed-out pimp." Why? Because it's a style he cultivated in order to emulate his pretend dad, James Brown.

Sharpton, who looks like more of a slightly younger brother of James Brown than his son, could be at age 53 young enough to be the Godfather of Soul's offspring, since he's only a youthful 53. For those of you shocked by the fact that Al Sharpton is, relatively speaking, a spring chicken, you aren't the only ones.
