| Which was your happiest
day? |
August 8th, 1980. That was the day Lynn and I got
married. The only thing that spoilt it was that the man in the
Registry Office had to go and make a feeble joke by asking which
one of us was the bride... |
| Which was your most embarrassing
day? |
Embarrassed? If I was the sort of person
who got embarrassed, I wouldn't have survived this long. |
| What will you be doing
when you are 65? |
Having face lifts and plastic surgery. I want to
look like Mae West. |
| Have you ever appeared
nude in public? |
Practically every time I do a gig! |
| Is your sun tan natural? |
It's as natural as the rest of me! |
| What's your favourite
type of fishnet tights? |
You'd never catch me dead in a pair of fishnets!
For one thing, they are not practical. And for another thing,
it's just like a tacky drag queen. |
| Are you as trashy as you
seem? |
How trashy do I seem? I like deliberate
Trash. I collect items like Elvis Presley clock radios and '50s
memorabilia. It inspires a lot of my imagery. I like tasteful trash. |
| If you could play a part
in a film, which would you choose? |
The Bette Davis part in Whatever Happened To
Baby Jane? |
| Are you a gender bender? |
What??? ...I think all this so-called gender-bending
is hilarious. I've always been like this and until I got into
pop music, nobody thought of putting me in a gender-bender category.
It used to be that people would just say "You're a queer".
Now it's all got nice and respectable. I don't think I approve
of gender bending. |
