Proof that there's always room for another cheaply-made video blog, Atom's Krayon Brooks is one funny guy, which makes sense, because in reality he's Mike Rose, one half of the team behind Planet Unicorn. In any event, he has a very important message for all of us about what we should do the next time we're asked to go to a straight wedding.


Italian designer Agatha Ruiz de la Prada got a bit of surprise during her show yesterday, when actor Sacha Baron Cohen, who's filming a flick based on his over-the-top fashionista, Bruno, took to the catwalk in a design of his own creation. Security guards and the police weren't pleased and dragged him out.

Watch the video, after the jump…

» Who Wouldn't Call Him Back?

Jeffery Self, half of YouTube's VGL Boys, is debuting his new solo show, People I Slept With Who Never Called Me Back, at Ars Nova tonight. I know Jeffery well, I directed his My Life on the Craigslist, and he's a rising star in gay comedy. In his new show, Self promises to spill the dirt on the boys who never called him back. Hopefully a few will be in the audience. If you haven't seen any of the VGL Boys videos, my favorite is their classic on gay marriage.

It's Okay To Laugh...


Many of you may think we lead exceedingly glamorous lives and party hop all night long. We don't.

For example, rather than going out on the town last night, we stayed in and relived the magic of Paul Mooney's 2006 show, Jesus Is Black. Mooney, of course, made his name as Richard Pryor's side kick back in the day.

Pryor may be gone, but Mooney's carrying the comedic torch.

Since it's Friday and everyone needs a laugh in the morning hours, here are two clips from Mooney's show. The language ain't safe for work. Also, if you're offended by race talk, you may want to just look away.

Your really must run out right now and get the Comedy Central Roast of Pamela Anderson Uncensored! We’d missed it when it originally aired, but since its release on DVD we’ve been unable to pull ourselves away from the television.

Bea Arthur reads from Anderson’s book Star Struck and deadpans a passage on anal sex. Courtney Love is a glorious mess, slurring words and falling down. Lady Bunny, repeated jokes about Andy Dick’s sexuality and Tommy Lee’s pecker size round out what may be the funniest 80 minutes ever captured on a DVD.

It’s great to see celebrities not taking themselves too seriously, dishing like real people, and being funny, not contrived.

Many of The Gays are obsessed with hair: highlight, product, and styles. And many of The Gays have a deep appreciation for comic books: the hulking heroes, the chiseled bodies, and the secret life storylines.

Thanks to the dear Chris over at Uffish, we’ve stumbled upon the The 2006 MySpace Legion Of Extraordinary Stupid Hair Super Heroes! We can’t stop laughing. Bad hair and comic books: A big gay dream come true!

Lady Bunny is a drag legend, a NYC nightlife fixture, and one funny comedian. Recently Bunny caught up with Bradford Shellhammer to discuss her new DVD, Star Jones, and the perfect boyfriend. FYI, It's not that safe for work.

Hi Bunny. What made you decide to blog?
Well, the first reason was to keep people engaged with Ladybunny.net. No matter how fantastic your site is, ain't nobody gonna come back if you don't update it. Since I need a web designer to make major changes, the blog is a do-it-yourself way to keep my site current with everything from comments on current affairs to my schedule of appearances.

Before I had a blog, I forwarded sick shit to friends constantly. Now I just post it. Luckily, now fans of the blog send sick shit to me! And the launching of my website coincided with George Bush's reign of terror. Actually seeing the second World Trade Center (don't ask me what I was doing up at that hour!) shook me up, but instead of asking, "What do we do?" I thought, "What have we done to deserve this?". Bush's decision to retaliate against Iraq, a country with no WMDs and no connections with the perpetrators of 9/11, sparked my interest in politics–which mainly consists of slamming this administration. There's a lot of humor crap on my blog, too, but I've gotten a great response for the political rants. Which is fairly surprising, since most gays aren't very political these days. Face it, the ACT UP days, when getting involved was even seen as trendy/hot, are long gone. I wish there were more gays interested in things like rising HIV infections, but the tone of most gay rags is very shallow and hunk-oriented. Enjoy the hunks! Masturbate over them. But balance the hunks with issues, especially if they're issues like AIDS, which are killing us!

Name you favorite drag queen and why?
Dame Edna. She is so demented! And she's hetero! I actually like her out-of-drag characters just as much as her drag. She's a class A kook and has really taken it to a huge scale with TV specials, Broadway shows, Vanity Fair articles, etc. And when she met Joan Rivers she told her "You look fantastic. Please don't ever consider plastic surgery!"

The Pam Anderson Roast. What was that night like?
I had a blast hanging out with the celebs. Hell, with Tommy Lee next to me and Dennis Rod-man behind me, I was surrounded by about two feet of dick! Call me a sick freak, but I've always dreamt of one in each end! So it was hard for me to concentrate on the lines–the lines that Courtney was shoving up my nose! KIDDING! And I got to meet my idol, Charo! But ultimately, it was disappointing since they cut most of my lines. I had submitted jokes, which Comedy Central deemed too filthy. So they basically wrote me a script, which wasn't that funny, and I knew it. A few of the jokes they provided for me were about Comedy Central comedians who I had never heard of like Adam Carolla. And then they went on to let everyone else tell really filthy jokes! But all in all, it was better to be on it briefly than not at all–it was the highest Nielsen rated special in years. And it was a pretty fucking hilarious show! Pam was a great sport, and they really let Bea Arthur have it.

After the jump Bunny tells us her nastiest joke.

B Squad

We all know those types. The so called straight guys everyone knows are gay. They actually believe they are straight. Like Details.

In the age of the metrosexual and "gay vague" sketch comedy group the B Squad have made a not safe for work, hilarious, and extremely hot softcore porn movie addressing the subject. View the movie titled Paul & Frank.

They are best friends. But they are not gay. Via New York City Boys.

•Finally. Kate Bush releases her new single on iTunes. It only took, what, ten years.

Holly Woodlawn

•The incomparable Holly Woodlawn, Warhol muse and pioneering trannie, is playing one night only in NYC next Tuesday. Expect a who’s who of the downtown scene to be in attendance.

•Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Pittsburgh, Ft. Lauderdale, Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, and San Francisco are in for a treat! Kiki and Herb are reunited and touring the US. Dare we say Justin Bond is the best drag performer alive? Thanks Aaron.

•Any friend of Matty is a friend of ours. That is why we are totally going to see the self-proclaimed “gay comic hottie” Adam Sank. He is performing this Saturday and Sunday in NYC. Wonder if he is better than our fave fag comic, Jimmy Fallon. Oh wait. He’s straight.

F.A.G in a bag? It is grooming products. Not cocaine.

Chuck Knipp is the controversial comedian who plays the characters of Shirley Q. Liquor and Betty Butterfield with equal gusto. Labeled a racist by many and a comic genius by others, Knipp first caught our attention as Ms. Liquor many years back. However, it is his portrayal of Miss Butterfield that is truly memorable.

Betty Butterfield

A friend of Queerty sent us a link to MmmHellooo this morning and seriously we have just lost an hour of our lives. The site houses a huge collection of Butterfield movies. Sadly, Michael Musto recently reported that Knipp lost his home to Katrina. Mr. Knipp is safe though. And we are anxiously awaiting Betty’s stories of her hurricane experiences. Reacquaint yourself with Betty Butterfield.
