I call it PRIDE

...a deeper love.

The INTENTION with this blog is to update with not only regularity, but frequency. So in that vein, here's a small write-up, but only a week after my last post.

I'm pleasantly surprised by how popular my YouTube channel is! Lots of hits, lots of subscriptions.

September 8th's Wednesday Show featured some fun (slightly hoarse) tunes. I styled the wig I won from the In 'N' Out "Girls on the Go" audition, and now it's a super-cute sort of 40's brush-out look. It was a big hit. My setlist for the night:

Ladies' Night (the group number)
Hopelessly Devoted to You (lip-sync)
How Lovely to Be a Woman
Emotions (some hilariously lip-synced Mariah Carey)
I Will Follow Him (group)
Liza (a lip-sync to live Liza in French. a BIG HOT MESS, omg)
Blue
In the Mood (lip-synced Bette Midler)
Somewhere That's Green--and I gave myself a makeup black eye. Which was fun. But no dollahz. haha
Best of My Love (group closer)

I was super disappointed the black eye didn't get more ...reactions. There were chuckles, at least. But c'mon, a makeup black eye and a fur arm sling? I thought that would at LEAST get some pity money. Haha oh well. It WAS my last individual number, and those are never the big clean-up numbers--or really, numbers that make any money at all. haha

It was also a farewell party for a departing Queen named Sandy Shores. She didn't work at TC's, but brought a big farewell crew, and I think they had a good time. It was nice to give some people a nice send-off celebration. One of Tanya's friends (who was also Sandy's friend...? Maybe?) recorded a good chunk of the evening. I'm in the group video (but left out of the credits, sad face), but I've included the video featuring some of my individual performances. The hot mess Liza number is in there, where the nerves are VISIBLE on my face. But there's some good stuff in there, so I hope you enjoy the compilation.



Saturday, September 11th was Jenny Larue's fundraising carwash. Tanya and I came out to support her, all tarted up, and we raised a little bit of money. I worked the sign on the corner, which resulted in a nice light sunburn on my shoulders with an awkward tan line. haha but for a good cause. Also, to explain the title of this post, September 11th was Gay Pride in Savannah, GA. I missed everyone terrrrrrrribly. It would have been nice to go back and work as was the plan back in April, but I've spent all summer making unreturned phone calls and sending Emails without a reply. Oh well. I guess when I go back in October to visit, it'll only be a visit. I did send flowers though, so hopefully they enjoyed those. Hard to believe that only one year ago, I was in rehearsals for Hedwig and the Angry Inch, barely just thinking about trying to get an audition to join Club One's cast. It's been an eventful year for me. <3
