This is definitely my year of discovering many diva I like for their acting, also sing. First it was Nico Tortorella, then Kate Hudson and now Paris Hilton. Paris first got my attention, probably around the same time as everybody else, in 2003 when her sex tape was leaked and she starred in “The Simple…

Donna De Lory & James Harrah’s Sing To The Light
Are you looking for some new music to walk your downward dog to? Do you need an in-store playlist for your crystal and oolong tea shop? Are you locked in the bathroom, soaking in a tub surrounded by candles and want tunes to tune out your screaming kids? Have I got the album for you!…
Ingrid Michaelson’s For The Dreamers
Ingrid Michaelson took a five-year hiatus between albums to work on the music and lyrics for the Broadway musical “The Notebook”. I’m totally into checking it out just because of her involvement, even though I didn’t think much of the movie it’s inspired by. It seems to have also inspired Ingrid to be in a…
Tori Amos’ White Telephone To God EP
When Tori Amos drops albums, they tend to be very conceptual and have ties to previous albums. However, when she drops an EP or B-sides, Tori really shines with songs that tend to have more humor and spontaneity. That is definitely the case with her new EP, White Telephone To God. “White Telephone To God”…
Debbie Harry’s Face It
A few days before I was scheduled to leave on vacation for Quebec City, I found out Debbie Harry and Chris Stein of Blondie fame were doing a book signing at Bookmarc (400 Bleecker St) in New York City. It wasn’t the most convenient but there was no way in hell I was missing an…
Bloodwork’s Beaucoup Dinero EP
I first discovered Jenn Champion’s music thanks to her campaign on Kickstarter for her album The Last Night Of Sadness that dropped last year. I really like Jenn’s solo stuff but she also did an EP back in 2020 called Recents, with her wife Arwen Nicks, that’s just as good as Jenn’s solo work. Jenn…
Pandora’s Boxx
I’ve been a fan of Rupaul’s Drag Race ever since the beginning (shocking, I know) and just finished season sixteen. Out of all those seasons, there has only been one queen that I became a fan of. Pandora Boxx from season two. Rupaul doesn’t always make the best decisions on Drag Race, in my gay…
Griff’s Vertigo
Last year Griff dropped her EP Vert1go Vol 1 and then a few months ago she released the Ver2igo Vol 2 EP. Both are great and show the growth of Griff’s music, with more serious lyrics over her signature upbeat pop sound. These EP’s songs are combined with six new tracks to make up Griff’s…
Twinnie’s Blue Hour (Before The Dawn) EP
Pablo Picasso had his Blue Period from 1901 to 1904 (welcome to Art History 101) but I much prefer Twinnie’s Blue Trilogy which started last year with her Blue Hour (After Dark) and Blue Christmas EPs and continues with her latest EP, Blue Hour (Before The Dawn). Blue Hour (Before The Dawn) is a six-pack…
Be Steadwell’s Dear Ex: The Musical
I started June off by celebrating my favorite queer movie of all time, First Period, and decided to end Pride Month celebrating one of my favorite queer divas, Be Steadwell, and her new album Dear Ex: The Musical. Dear Ex is a musical that Be wrote because she had “never seen a musical about Black…
