The New York Magazine article is on Google Books. It was pretty in-depth and was written not long after Corey passed and the mummy was discovered.
Yep. I have a t-shirt with a New York Magazine headline that reads “Drag Queen Had a Mummy in Her Closet!”
I don’t really get the decision to change Gran’ma Custer to a Voodoo priestess. Isn’t the whole point of Gran’ma that she represents the hypocrisy of America’s fundamentalist Christians?
Some of the page to screen changes don’t bother me, but some of them are just baffling.
Weren’t the early teasers styled like a documentary? My friend had this theory (when we just had character names and brief descriptions) that the Bowles’ involvement with Ball culture would be Patty a documentary filmmaker doing a psuedo-Paris is Burning. I think they may have been onto something there.
I mean, Patty’s…
They could never do that. All those Barbara and Kori stans would take up torches and pitchforks when Dick finally settles down with his one true love...Midnighter.
Oh, I’m not apologizing because I find it sketchy as fuck that you singled out members of the community. It reeks of the heteronormative.
Meanwhile, the bare ass cheeks comment is just really random. I’ve seen straight guys run around in green Borat-style mankinnis with clovers painted on their butt cheeks during St.…
The media format aside, the comparison is more than fair. Stern asking celebrities frank and crude questions is one of his hallmarks. Plus, Stern’s radio show was filmed and syndicated on television networks during the 90's.
You’re also skimming over the fact that Stern was on FM radio for two decades before moving…
Your comment reads like it’s shitting on drag queens.
Marsha P. Johnson (pictured) was a drag queen and was also, according to a number of witnesses, the person who threw the brick/shot glass at police officers setting off the Stonewall uprising, which is the turning point in LGBTQ rights.
Being a part of the LGBTQ…
No. It wouldn’t stop it in a town in West Virginia or Kentucky and it wouldn’t stop it in Los Angeles or New York City.
But the fact remains that there have been numerous studies into this particular subject. Through historical and genetic testing, it was found that there’s no evidence to support the myth that…
I knew how to say it and spell it, most of the other kids that I knew could say it and spell it, we just didn’t do it in front of adults or snitching siblings/cousins.
And they do it in magazines like People and Rolling Stone. How many children are reading People Magazine?
I’m actually from KY and I can assure that claims of incest and backwoods sodomy have been greatly exaggerated.
Yeah, but she had a talk show a few years after My Life on the D-List and it didn’t last very long. I’m assuming that’s what she’s talking about.
Even as a kid, I would read magazines and wonder why they went with “f*ck, f**ck, etc.” instead of just spelling the dam word.
And whites make up 60% of the population (80% if you can Hispanics) while blacks make up about 12%.
West Virginia is actually one of the few states where first cousin marriage is illegal. The whole “people from Appalachia are all inbred” is a gross, classist, stereotype.
You know it’s coming, but it’s still great.
Probably the way she behaved during the reunion show.
