THURSDAY 10/10
THE HO, FO SHO
She’s a low-down dirty diva, is what. She’s what the kids these days are calling “a flipping YouTube sensation!” In fact, that’s how I discovered Wendy—a close friend of mine/kid these days flipped all out, “OMIGAWD, WENDY HO is coming! OMG OMG OMGz!” Of course, my curiosity got a big boner, and I was avocationally obliged to delve into the issue. Who and/or what is a Wendy Ho? What does she want? Where does she come from? What is her business? Who are her people? Where are her manners? Three zillion YouTube views and a conversation with Miss Ho later, this:
Mrs. Ho (yes, the Ho is a fine upstanding married lady) is based in LA. She has worked with Vicky Vox and other big-name drag artists in clubs and cabarets, but it is crucial to note for our purposes that—no!—SHE IS NOT A DRAG QUEEN! (I repeat: NOT a drag queen! Crazy, right?) By way of comparison, she could be called a ghetto-mouthed Lady Rizo with a finely honed sense of poop humor, or like an attractive Peaches: all glamour, glitter, scat, vagina, and sass. (Sounds much like a drag queen, sans the vajeen—I KNOW!—but trust me on this, kitten.)
