Well, if you’re taking a trek into West Hollywood to catch Gay Pride (2009) – a bigger & better rainbow-studded hedonistic smorgasbord of sensual delights this year – why not snap up a ticket or two for Dame Edna’s hilarious LIVE! Stage Show at the Ahmanson Theatre (June 9th thru 21st)?
The high-profile two-week fun-filled giggle is being billed as saucy Dame Edna’s “First Last Tour”.
That cheeky broad, taking a sly poke at Cher, perhaps?
For the totally clueless in middle-America Straight-ville, Dame Edna is a popular show gal who tours regularly – known particularly for her infamous naughty chit-chats with rapt audiences throughout her side-splitting LIVE! performances – on the glitzy entertainment circuit.
According to her bio, the Dame was born Edna May Beazley in the enchanting rural community of Wagga Wagga.
The high-kicker’s stage career began humbly enough when she first sauntered into the glare of the spotlight on December 19th in 1955 – as Mrs. Norm Everage (just an average Australian housewife) – from Moonee Pondsa (Melbourne).
From the get-go, the bejewelled beauty has sworn up-and-down, that the lilac-coloured hair she is known for is au naturel.
Yup, she’s an original starry-eyed blue-haired lady!
Ubiquitous diamond-studded cat-eye glasses are also a signature trademark.
The Divine Ms. Edna traverses the globe – kibitzing non-stop with crusty old world leaders from one corner of the Earth to another – as she jet-sets between her luxury residences in London, Sydney, Switzerland, LA LA land, and the oh-so upper crust Martha’s Vineyard.
Allegedly, Dame Edna is a friend and confidante of the Queen!
Elizabeth, silly!
Can a juicy (insightful) tell-all be far behind?
