Varla Jean Merman is Beautiful

By John Q. Sanchez on June 10, 2008 | Share & Save | Link | Print |


Optimistic Varla confronts some of the challenges of New Orleans’s post-Katrina dating scene in this touching slice of Louisiana life. You know who sent this to me? Miss Understood! Also: Ty, Garrett!

Previously: Varla teams with Flotilla DeBarge to perform Cher’s “Dark Lady.”

That’s so romantic. How sweet!

That really IS beautiful. Thank you!

I love Varla Jean. I’m sure you’ve seen “Girls Will Be Girls”

Classic Varla. Here’s a shot from a couple of weeks ago of her shilling for her new show in Ptown.: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lovepepper/2572128260/

Girls Will Be Girls, what’s that? ;)

I used to see VJM in the East Village years ago and still vividly remember her performing at the Wonder Bar and at the end of her act she drank from a big bottle of Clorox and fell to the floor. She’s still got the best sense of humor.

Oh Fausto - we will most definitely need to have a movie night!
