A Jenkins Salute To America

(Melody, Ida, Daphne and Mee-Maw salute the troops at Woody's Tavern.)

Nothing says patriotism like a couple of drunk drag queens stumbling through a slew of rousing musical numbers. So Ida and I headed out to Woody's Tavern to celebrate America day with our hunky pals, Mee-Maw and Melody. We sang all of our crowd pleasing hits like "Rehab" and "Landslide". We also unveiled a couple of new songs that I'll be posting here shortly.

In the meantime, here's a grand production number that Mee-Maw and Melody joined me on:

This patriotic anthem for the ages is called "The House We Live In" and comes from my favorite Broadway musical, Grey Gardens. In case you missed this grand spectacle during it's run, it featured Christine Ebersole in her Tony-winning role as Little Edie. The musical is based on the cult classic documentary of the same name. The doc is available on DVD and is must viewing for it's unflinching look at the redemptive power of fashion amidst the squalor of decay.

I hope you all have an inspiring America day. To tied you over until the rest of the videos to be posted, check out the photo gallery from our celebration over at Down with Daphne.

Smooches,

Daphne

Pussycat Dolls

(Chicken sporting some seriously sassy attitude in the Electric Blue Kitty Wig.)

Here's a little something for all you pussy lovers out there. No longer does tabby have to go around with boring old grey or calico colored fur. Like a true Jenkins, your little feline diva can have some fabulous unnaturally colored hair.

The fine foks at Kitty Wigs have assembled a plethora of feline fashion wigs to accomodate your tempermental kitty's every mood. Whether they're a cool cat in the jazzy Electric Blue number shown at the top or a Pink Passion temptress like the photos on the right, you'll find what you need at this revolutionary website.

And that's not all: each wig comes carefully package in it's own stylish hat box. Each package comes complete with a toy mouse to distract your kitty from the blinding flashes of the paparrazi that are sure to ensue when she makes a devastating debut in her sensational new look.

When placing your order, be sure to tell them that Daphne sent you. I'm hoping with enough referrals, I might get a discount for my own little model, Orchid. Special thanks to the amorous Amber for sending this link along.

In the meantime, here's a little Pussy-themed clip that Ida took a few weeks back of my dear friend, Trista Ray, the Broadway Baby:

Trista has since gone one to seize the title for Kentucky Newcomer 2008. To think, I knew her when.

Smooches,
Daph
