Is Maurice From ‘Beauty and the Beast’ a Radio Station Engineer in Real Life?
Our friends over at radio station 93.1 KISS FM in El Paso, Texas recently came to shocking realization -- their engineer, Dave, might have been in the Walt Disney classic 'Beauty and the Beast.' And if not, then he's definitely the real-life incarnation of the animated movie character.
Maurice is by far one of the best Disney dads of all time, always making the coolest inventions and supporting his daughter's decision to date a beast. But, sadly, Mr. Dave did not play him and was not the basis for those Disney animation artists. Rats!
