What is Sal-E getting himself into? Last time we hung out with our local Technicolor child of the night he was dishing out the goods for the good people of the world who manage to comment on my Gay Bloggies entries. Now he’s back to announce he’s starting a Chicago chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
Who wants to dress up as a wacky nun in drag? I do! These 21st century nuns for the queer community roots go back to the San Francisco Cockettes scene from of the late 1960s. They began officially in 1979 when three friends dressed up as nuns wearing psychedelic clown makeup, one sporting a cigar and machine gun. They thought it would be a great way to challenge established ideas of gay masculinity, religion, plus raise funds for charities and have fun.
I think it’s wonderful that Sal-E is doing this as many of the groups all over the country work hard to raise awareness and money for a wide range of charities.
On today’s show we talk about Sal-E’s new African American female mannequin he bought from Jo-Jo who was acquired in the and infamous “boiling-skull” incident. A Hindu holy man loses his holy prosthetic leg and we talk about making my “XXX-Mas Karaoke Medley” video for the Gay Bloggies competition. Special thanks to Taylor E Ross for helping me put together the music and playing a rocking guitar.
Pictured here with Santa Marc is Sal-E checking out this new fan art we got from Matt, one of our listeners. No matter which way you turn the painting, it spells out the letters FOF. It has a rainbow circle in the middle to represent the way our show ties the GLBTQC community together. What a sweet guy! We love it.
What’s a good gift for your queer inspired friend this holiday season? Why not get them RuPaul’s new movie “Starrbooty” out on DVD as a stocking stuffer? Believe it or not, it’s actually quite a delightfully campy movie inspired by the trashy films of Russ Meyers (the King of Trash) and John Waters (known as the Prince of Puke). Directed by fashion photographer Mike Ruiz, the film stars Supermodel to the world RuPaul as a secret agent who becomes a street hooker in order to rescue her niece from the clutches of her arch nemesis, Erika Manners, portrayed by Candis Cane.
The thin plot of the film really is just an excuse to stage RuPaul in some hilarious scenes that pay homage to the karate Blaxplotatin films of the 1970s and to showcase some wacky costumes and crazy characters speaking in memorable overdubbed voices.
Along with Valley of the Dolls, Beyond the Valley of the Dolls and Showgirls, Starrbooty makes a nice addition to any campy film collectors library.
Dear Santa, what do I really want for Christmas? Besides love, peace and music, sweet sweet music, I want to win the Gay Bloggies!

December 17, 2007 at 05:27A note about the Gay Bloggies:
Please don’t post any comments (good or bad) on the other competitors entries. Instead, post your comments about their entries in mine.
As you may know, comments encourage traffic (and votes) to their entries and lower my chances of winning this competition. If I win the competition, Marc will sit on a cake dressed up as Santa Claus and we’ll party like it’s 1999. Which means we’re going to freak out, Y2K style (but in a totally good way) ok?
