I've got the movie title (thanks for the alley-oop clue!) and what I think are likely fragments of the name. I may give in soon. :D

Good job, Poet!

I saw this years ago. It's mindless but amusing. There's a line where someone is trying to introduce the guy and says, "This is Bob Maloogaloogalooga," and Bob adds, "looga...one Malooga and four loogas."

You can see I have a juvenile sense of humor. :D

SHAMPOO / GEORGE ROUNDY / WARREN BEATTY

...like many my age, I never saw this film, but read and enjoyed the MAD Magazine parody.

P.S. "Yogaurt / Pornos Emerge"? ... :roll:

BINGO IS SMUT MUSHTOOL / MONKEY GRANDSTAND
- musical piece / composer
- the title has nothing whatsoever... to make it fit with this theme :D
- this piece is well known from an animated feature film, but based on his first name, you wouldn't expect to hear the composer boasting about it...

3. It's an old movie, and the dimpled artist was very young at the time.

HENKE "DUDEVOICE" WEASEL / DISNEY ISNT BLAND
- singer-musician / song
- his nickname fits the theme, again, by not fitting
- musician got the nickname because of a hair-product mishap
- song name is victually inclined
- known as a sax player - started in jump/blues, but also played with some of the all-time jazz greats from an early age

4. Back in the day, both actress and actor were sex symbols.
5. In her personal life, the actress was far from being an angel, not even a blue one.

HIWARRANT / HOSS JAPERY
- film / writer-director (original)
- film, originally made in the late Eighties, has been recently remade and acclaimed (I liked the original too much to see the new one)
- film title is a natural fit for this thread... as a product
- ... and the director, whose oeuvre is generally much less family-friendly than this film, has a very distinct theme-related facial feature
- the director had a bit part in the remake
