On Saturday some of the biggest ladies in music hit An Evening with Women, the
L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center‘s rock-concert fundraiser at the Beverly Hilton.
Roseanne, Ashlee Simpson, “Titanium” singer
Sia and
Sara Gilbert caught performances by
Courtney Love, Linda Perry,
Camp Freddy,
Wanda Sykes, Kat Von D,
Aimee Mann,
Gina Gershon and
Samantha Ronson, who spun at the afterparty. The annual An Evening with Women event raises money for the
LAGLC‘s services for girls and women (and gurlz, wimmin and womyn).

Cool pics of the event.
I was there too and scored vid interviews with Comedian Wanda Sykes, Actress Roseanne Barr, Actress Gina Gershon, Olympic Diver Greg Louganis, Reporter Jane Velez-Mitchell, Singer Linda Perry, Comedian Fortune Feimster of Chelsea Lately, Singer Naia Kete of The Voice, Singer Felipe Rose of The Village People, and Designer Michael Moloney of Extreme Makeover Home Edition.
I asked Wanda to slap me they way Will Smith slapped the reporter at the MIB premiere but she had no idea what I was talking about and gave me a WTF look.
Linda Perry is not convinced that Obama is a good guy. Presidential candidate Roseanne Barr said people should vote for her instead of Obama in the CA Primary since he has no Democrat challenger. I asked the rest about their best advice for LGBT people in small towns and they gave good answers.
However, do not jokingly ask Michael Moloney to makeover your house – he does not like that.

Wow, Ashlee Simpson?
Must have been hard to get tickets for that.
I am so jealous!

Didn’t Courtney Love storm of the stage at a Brazil concert and only remained after the audience started chanting “The Foo Fighters Are Gay” ??? LA Lesbians are such sell outs.

Yes, I agree that LA lesbians stink. Courtney Love is a hypocritical piece of shit who appears to be homophobic towards men.
Linda Perry is hideous to boot and, in my view, is not very gay-friendly.
Message to LA lesbians: we don’t like you, so fuck off.

Gina Gershon is a woman I would seriously go straight for…like, no joke. I’ve had a true crush on her since Showgirls – and not some queeny fan crush either, but the real thing. Who knows, maybe the homophobes are right and I haven’t met the ‘right woman’. Brb, gotta cut up a newspaper and mail her a note (jk!).

LA lesbian hate? How disgusting. It shouldn’t have anything to do with sexuality.

It was actually someone else in Courtney’s band. I believe it was the drummer.
