Danny Mills (actor)

Danny Mills was a small-scale American actor known for his role in the popular cult classic Pink Flamingos, directed by John Waters.

In the film, Mills plays the role of Crackers Johnson, the lewd delinquent son of Babs Johnson played by Divine.

Mills is noted for having a mane of dark brown hair, a missing front tooth, pallid skin, brown eyes and a slender frame. His role in Pink Flamingos established his appearance as a denizen into the alternative LifeStyle. Befriended to John Waters, Danny complied with Waters' controversial script, performing a [...] scene with a chicken with Cookie Mueller and receiving fellatio from Divine, pleading "Do my balls mama!"

As stated in the book "My Son Divine" by By Frances Millstead, Steve Yeager and Kevin Heffernan, on the set of Pink Flamingos Mills is also noted for having inserted a dye bottle full of water in a dog's anus to produce excrement which Divine would later eat. This scene consummates the ending of the "shock value" element of the film Pink Flamingos.

Pink Flamingos is the only film in which Mills ever starred and after its debut he retired from acting . Mills was featured in the 1976 documentary about Edith Massey, Edith's Shopping Bag and the 1998 documentary about Divine, Divine Trash.

Mills currently resides in Baltimore, Maryland.
