the "IT GETS BETTER," campaign created to reach out to gay teens at risk just got interesting. sex columnist and hero DAN SAVAGE has been reaching out and including some really diverse role models. my longtime buddy, BUCK ANGEL did his part. check out his heartfelt message to young gays contemplating suicide.
i've know buck since he was a high fashion model named laura. he struggled a lot in his youth, this message hits him close to home.
2ND KINKY CABARET~OH WHAT A NIGHT
the 2ND KINKY CABARET was a wall of talent...
non~ stop erotic talent! each performance a show-stopper unto itself, culminating in a crescendo of applause from an appreciative audience.
as the age old story goes~ people come from all over the world to "make it," in HOLLYWOOD. some do, most don't, but hollywood proper is loaded with unsigned artists/performers/singers etc, and they are loaded with talent, pure, raw talent! .. no sappy american idol doldrums here.
ANTEBELLUM & KINKY CABARET present the very best of unsigned-raw talent from the most esoteric to the classic.
check out pics from 2ND KINKY CABARET~
