To celebrate the holidays, Queerty is playing Santa to all your favorite folks and asking what they want under the tree/ next to the menorah/ beside the Saturnalia bonfire this year, no Ms. America answers allowed.
The much beloved and besotted drag queen cabaret duo Kiki & Herb is one of the great civilizing forces of the world. Who else could work a William Butler Yeats line into a cover of "Total Eclipse of the Heart"? As one half of the duo, Justin Bond went from downtown performance darling to Tony-nominated Broadway star. To celebrate the holidays, Bond will be performing the entire Carpenter's album Close to You (plus some seasonal tunes) at the Abrons Art Center in New York City from Dec 11th – 13th. Tickets available here.
After playing Carnegie Hall, what else could a drag chanteuse want? Find out after the jump.
"For years I've wanted — and it isn't small, but someone will be able to either purchase or hot-wire one for me — I want a mid-80's 'Chocolate-Brown Mercedes Sedan'… the one Sheila E. sang about in 'Glamorous Life'. I don't necessarily support the auto industry bail-out because I think they're greedy idiots who could've done a lot more to protect the environment! BUT Aunt Mommy has a road trip in mind for 2009 and wants to travel in vintage comfort with plenty of room for all my high heels in the trunk, my fancy man to my right and a couple hot drivers in the back seat… preferably in mint condition, color negotiable.

Great choice Queerty, now we're going to have to listen to some lame-ass Banana Republicans tell us how you shouldn't be pushing people like Kiki until straight people decide we should have equal rights. Oh well, I hope he gets his Sheila E. car anyway!
Why am I getting images of Too Wong Foo flashing in my head?
Reminds me, time to dig out Kiki & Herbs "Christmas" CD, "Do You Hear What We Hear?" and upload it onto my iPod!
Justin Bond is a really sweet person and deserves whatever he wants this Christmas!
since your playing Santa
how about a CURE and my friends back?
your should have been you're
another mental snag I have, words that sound alike are a b*tch for me, I always get their there and they're f*cked up
Justin really is wonderful performer and person. Years ago at an Out 100 event downtown,I asked him as a complete stranger to come meet my other half (who also adores Justin). Justin sweetly offer me his hand, we walk through the crowd to the amazed face of my partner. Wish I could see the NYC show this year (moved back to SoCal)
