A Mid Summer BENT Dream

Hello Lovelies!

I don't know how many Los Angeles followers I have out there but if you're one of them and want to attend a very fun, very entertaining drag performance show - along with burlesque and belly dancing tossed in the mix - I'll be headlining at A Mid Summer BENT Dream. Proceeds benefit the Equal Rights Campaign. Fun and fundraising all at once! Plus you get a raffle ticket if you wear a mustache or wings ...who doesn't love a reason to don a 'stache or fairy wings?

The burlesques Snippet You've Been Waiting For

Yes, lovies, it's finally here. My apologies on the delay. For those of you who may not know, I'm also CurlyChronicles on YouTube so that's the handle you hear me mention in the beginning :)
This is my quick little Happy New Year video, late yes, but still relevant ha! My voice is still a tiny bit sore super sexy too!


Enjoy!

BENT - Holidays are a Drag!

Hello lovies!

Happy to announce that I'll be performing for my second time at BENT 9 - Holidays are a Drag, a gender bender showcase where women perform as men, men perform as women and as well women perform as women and men perform as men...Yes, a bit confusing but that's the point ;)  I'll be performing once again as Marlon Brandingo (I love that name!) and making my burlesque debut as Chi Chi Chambray! I'm really excited to do both but more excited for the burlesque because I've always wanted to perform burlesque. Ah, dream come true!

Check the deeeetails below and join me if you're in the area!  It's a lot of fun and the crowd is great.

My First Night in Drag

I've always wanted to get into theater and other areas that have to do with singing or acting, it just looked like a lot of fun...so when I was presented with an opportunity to dress in drag - as a man nonetheless!  I took it and ran with it. I've never performed before so I was slightly jittery right before going on stage..but my performance was very well received and I had a great time!  I performed on Saturday night, how funny that Lady Gaga performed in drag on Sunday! Is it in the air? Here's a shot of me as my drag alter ego, Marlon Brandingo.

 Marlon is totally a badass (but sort of a pretty boy with that earring) 

who gets reallytheatrical on stage and exudes a lot of energy.

Today, I'm back to regular, ultra femme, Retro Natural. T'was so nice to be a guy, I'm gonna do it again in September! Perhaps I'll get into acting next! I think I scared my neighbors, they're kinda macho!

Any performers out there? What style do you do? What made you get into it? I'd love to hear some cool stories!
