Queering of the Pink Ladies

I spy, with my little lesbian eye — a queer Pink Lady? So, I hasn’t given much thought to the new Paramount+ Grease spinoff “Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies.” Like, yeah, we all basically have OK feelings about the movie and considerably fonder feelings about Olivia Newton-John in her leather jacket/black spandex pants combo. Still, I’m not sure if I’m ready for a 1950s Glee. But, dammit, if one of the Pink Ladies isn’t clearly a Handy Dyke in training. Golly gee wilikers, am I going to have to watch this show? The universe really wants me to watch things I had no initial intention of watching right now.
