The Wedrock Benefit was truly astounding. Beyond what I would call a simple fundraiser, it was a revelation and a revolution in one fell swoop. This was by far the best show I have ever had the honor to participate in. All the artists in the house, who believe in truth, freedom, equality and love, […]
I love this building, and I can imagine staying here forever. There was a photography book that we had at the counter at the bookstore my parents owned. It was something like “Residents of The Chelsea Hotel” and it was a bunch of people sitting on their beds. There were quotes next to their photos […]
New York reminds me so much of you. Coming into town, I would always stare out the window of the cab, looking at the streets, loving them, knowing you were here, wondering what you were doing that moment. Then I would recall smell of lemons, that perfume you gave me last time I saw you, […]
This entry is from T. Thanks, T. Rallies, campaigns and protests fill the air these days. My attention is constantly being hijacked by images of anti- war protesters, political candidates and bumper stickers. People all over the planet pour into the streets with posted signs and symbols of thought, hoping to be heard and equally […]
Think of all the people you love. Think about how hard it would be to think about never seeing them again. Maybe even just one person. What if you didn’t get to say goodbye? What if you didn’t get to tell them the most important thing, that you had meant to tell them, but you […]
David Bowie is more than a star, more than a celebrity, more than an icon, more than anyone, anything, anywhere. Also, he is fucking cool. The coolest guy in the world. There is an intensity in the room that I cannot discern. I am only trying to get out. I cannot meet him. He means […]
Note from Team Cho: Just got this email from a friend of Margaret’s who writes for the Ellen DeGeneres show: Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2004 8:10 PM I just saw the Entertainment Weekly where the people name Margaret #1! Awesome. Also, we are taping a show with David Bowie as we speak and in his […]
We used to drive up this way, along the beach to Santa Barbara, years ago. We’d stop for donuts, see the full moon on the beach, then find a space where turning back and going home made sense. I had remembered that, and you, from the view of the water, the clear sky on the […]
Semante Santa is Holy Week in Mexico. That was where I was attempting to spend my vacation. I have a hard time relaxing. It was nice to escape to a completely different world, not so far in miles, but impossibly distant in the way we live. For the important days, my husband and I rattled […]
“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” So if we play the consensually agreed upon societal roles, deny our voice and acquiesce to a kind of resigned weakness, let the powerful and mighty have their way, support the exploitation of our rights and freedoms and raise no voice in opposition, then we, […]
Randall Terry, you reap what you sow. He just did a live interview on CNN talking about how homosexuality is a ‘sexual addiction,’ and how his son has taken thousands of dollars from OUT magazine (he was actually paid the standard $5000 fee) to promote the ‘homosexual agenda.’ Along with coming out as gay, the […]
Aaron Brown is so fine. And I think that he treated himself to some new glasses. I am not positive, because they are strikingly similar to the last terrifically flattering pair, but since I watch him fairly obsessively, I knew there was something different, that I could not really put my finger on, until my […]
