Number twenty-three in a series.
Interview (and a shot of Josh's alter-ego) after the jump.
- What's your secret to staying so beautiful?
Being interviewed by people who've never laid eyes on me. - Is it true what the tabloids are saying about your relationship?
Are there any pictures? Before I answer I need to know. - This new project of yours is certainly taking everyone by surprise. Tell us about it.
Surprise? What's so surprising about a memoir of being an ad exec by day/drag queen by night dating a crack-addicted S&M male escort hitting the New York Times Bestseller list? I Am Not Myself These Days deals with the universal, age old story of boy - meets - boy - dressed - as - girl - with - goldfish - titties. It's fun for the whole family. Are they surprised it's soon to be a major motion picture produced by Clive Barker? Are they surprised that I've been invited to speak at Jerry Falwell's Liberty University? Are they surprised that PETA is protesting the use of live goldfish in my costumes' breasts? Are they surprised that it's outselling Star Jones' book almost two to one? People are too easily surprised apparently. - Who are you wearing?
It's my own design. I killed the baby seals myself. See how I've arranged the eyeholes to spell out "PETA, SCHMETA"? - Would you ever do a role that required nudity?
I like to constantly surprise the public with different sides of me. Unfortunately, most have already seen the front and back.

I Am Not Myself These Days is available at better bookstores everywhere. (And it's the MO Book Club Book of the MOnth!)
