Vance is a sharp dresser. Probably too sharp - he makes Mr. T look
shabby. Mr. T doesn't really like being in the same picture as Mr. V. I
guess it evens out because Mrs. T doesn't like being in the general area
of Mr. T. It's an incredibly dysfunctional scene.

Did ya know that Mr. T and Nancy Reagan were good friends...???
ABC News (2016)
Inside Nancy Reagan's Unlikely Friendship With Mr. T
The bouncer-turned-actor and actress-turned-first lady were close.
March 11, 2016,
"In addition to the relatives and politicians set to attend former first
lady Nancy Reagan's funeral today, one of the other familiar faces in
the crowd will be Mr. T, the actor known best for pitying fools and
starring in “The A-Team” TV series...
Mr. T, whose birth name is Lawrence Tureaud, was listed as one of the
notable invited guests for the funeral in California today, which is
more than 30 years after he first met Nancy Reagan...
The unlikely friendship between a former bouncer-turned-actor and an
actress-turned-first lady started after she asked him to be involved in
her drug-prevention program, Just Say No...
But the program itself wasn't the first time they came into contact,
according to the 63-year-old actor...
In a series of Tweets he posted after the news of her death, he said he
was first invited to the White House by the Reagans in December 1983 and
then asked to help her with the Just Say No program...
That December visit was particularly memorable because it resulted in
one of the best-known photos of the pair...
The Reagans regularly asked celebrities to come to the White House and
dress up as Santa for Christmas parties. Comedian Rich Little and
weatherman Willard Scott were among the other celebrities asked later
on, but Mr. T was the man with the big white beard in Christmas 1983...
"I was one of the wildest Santa Clauses they ever had,” he said in a
recent interview. “I had my cut-off sleeves. I had my combat boots
on.”...
At one point in the night, Nancy Reagan hopped up on his lap and gave
him a kiss on the head, lending itself well to a cute photo moment...
They then started to work together in her effort to stop child drug
use...."
