Because of the snowy weather, tonight’s Halloween Party at Frying Pan restaurant and bar has been cancelled! I will not be hosting costume contest!
But I will still be at Le Bingo! (See Events on right for details.)

Ladyfag is Not a Vampire!
Never having seen nightlife phenomenon Ladyfag before sunset, I naturally assumed she’s a blood-sucking vampire. (Vodka-cranberry in her glass or virgin plasma?!)
But it turns out she can withstand the light of day! This coming Sunday she’s organized Pop Souk, a noon-to-6pm fashion extravaganza featuring loads of indie designers and fabulous folks selling off their fabulous cast-offs.
Ladyfag herself is clearing out her closet.
Finally, my chance to nab some of her incredible eye-catching attire!
I can’t wait to show up to one of her events clad in her old clothes! Ladylinda!
What a Mess! Lady Bunny Debuts New Show!
I didn’t want to start promoting Lady Bunny’s new show, That Ain’t No Lady, at La Escuelita nightclub before I could see it for myself. I only recommend superior products!
So what’s the verdict? Was I delighted by last night’s debut, which Bunny referred to as a “mess rehearsal?” Yes, precisely because it was so messy! Technical difficulties, an unmemorized song list, and a smashed banana prop helped create a perfectly goofy framework for her retrospective of crude, rude, cornball jokes and song parodies.
Bunny vowed from stage that the rest of the show’s run (through October) will be slicker, but there’s absolutely no need. Watching Bunny have to hilariously improvise her way through the topsy-turviness was the best part!
Who was there, groaning and moaning to Bunny’s “zingers?” Lots of her old-time pals, including Perfidia, Billy Beyond, Bobby Miller, Barbara Patterson Lloyd, Lurleen Wallace, Miss Guy, Lahoma Van Zandt, Katie Krocodile, David Yarritu, Jimmy Paul, Dany Johnson and Ande Whyland. I attended with Angela Di Carlo, who’s (relentlessly) promoting her own show. And popping on stage for a second—in flats!—was Carmen Carrera from RuPaul’s Drag Race.
After the show Bunny let loose by madly shimmying around the club to dance classics from her younger days—a consummate performer dedicated to entertaining her fans both onstage and off!
Tardy for the Party Across the Street!
I was beyond fashionably late to gossip journalist Michael Musto’s book release party a couple of nights ago.
But I still managed to catch Mr. Musto and some attendees, plus it was a good chance to check out the Copacabana nightclub, which relocated this summer right across the street from where I live. You never know when I might want to take up Salsa dancing!
Final Applause
This video is a little late… Me mingling with enthusiastic audience members after the closing-night performance on July 15th of The Emperor’s New Codpiece.
I thought that night’s show was our best of all, and it was a great way to wrap things up.
Thanks to one all all who helped support my theatrical venture!
Hanging With The Housewives
Guess who showed up at Rapture, the mammoth lesbian Pride party I hosted this past weekend…
Alex McCord and hubby Simon Van Kempen from The Housewives of New York!
I found them perfectly delightful—down-to-earth, jokey and very happy to be at the event.
After my introduction, they gave a rousing short speech for gay rights and led a toast celebrating New York’s new same-sex marriage law.
Simon opted not to perform his new dance song, “I Am Real,” which was probably a good idea… It’s kind of an acquired taste.
