stalked and pride

A new business has taken shack in one of the suites in my floor and there's this Asian dude who works there. He could be cute, except his face is 18 shades of brown like the palette of an artist who works only in sepia, and he has both an underbite and an overbite, giving him a very horse-like appearance ( Read more... )

I saw Jennifer Holliday live in Seattle once. She's a friend of one of the former owners of one of the two leather bars in town, and she agreed to a "One Night Only" concert for the bar's birthday party. So I arrive early, in time to see every leather queen and slave in town arrive. I shit you not, every man over 30 had either a Playbill or Original Cast Recording for Effie to sign. It was rather heartwarming to see both the men in collars and the men holding the leashes singing along to "I Am Changing" and "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going." Of course, Miss Holliday was electric. I tingled. And nearly pissed myself when she got to the final "you're gonna lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ve ... ... ... MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE."

It was less heartwarming to see them sing along with "A Woman's Got the Power," but I figured what the hell.

God that must have been a beautiful experience. If only I was there! =(

I have this live version of And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going and I swear she does these incredible runs with her voice that I've only heard being emitted by heavy machinery theretofore!

I will be there and I will be drunker than drunk, because to be honest that's why I go, to get trashed in public and look at all the pretty (and not so pretty) people!

Hopefully I run into you and can take pictures of you in all your alcoholized glory!

I expected a tiny little blonde singing that song.

I know right? I also expected her to be sprinkling fairy dust on my shoulder and hanging out with some manchild named "Peter Pan"!

I'd only talk to someone in the bathroom if I knew them. Your conversations, however, were really weird.

At Milwaukee's Pridefest this weekend, Rupaul, Sophie B. Hawkins, and Taylor Dayne are performing. I just found out recently that Sophie's dykeadelic and her most recent work is dirtier than kd lang and Melissa Etheridge in a fourgy with ellen and portia de rossi. And yes, that's Taylor "Tell It To My Heart" Dayne. I'm still debating whether or not I should go.

As for Chicago's parade, Wilson Cruz (Ricky from My So Called Life) is the Grand Marshal. Then later in August for Market Days, Rupaul's performing. What is with Rupaul and the Midwest?

I'm so jealous Kim Locke's gonna be there! When I first heard her debut single 8th World Wonder, I thought some skinny white chick was singing. But no, it was this plump Halfrican bronze medalist. Laughing out loud. Actually, her voice was so altered on that song. I still love her.

I'll take pictures of K.Lo for you. <3

Sophie has some good songs, but like, overall, she's sort of boring. Not pride caliber, to be sure. A lesbianic fourgy... that brings salty tears to my eyes.

Taylor Dayne is awesome! She was on that VH1 show where they were trying to makeover has-been pop stars into successes... It was sort of sad...

Debby Holiday is awesome!

She has exactly one hit on the dance charts, a song called Dive which started as a rock-ish acoustic number, then got flamingly remixed into oblivion, at which point super gays embraced it as gospel.
