Halloween Edition: Scary Faces!
.jpg)
AAAHHH! Scary!
In the spirit of Halloween I am celebrating ruined celebrity faces! Some of these folks were once America’s sweetheart or the newest heart throb – now they are Halloween zombies all year long. Each event is paired with an equally horrifying face. This Halloween is a nightmare, and Brooklyn The Borough has some scary scenes for you! Boo!
Friday
This is my favorite! Probably because, I’m one of the hosts! Brooklyn The Borough & OutAboutBrooklyn bring you a queer takeover of Public Assembly. Usually the host of punk-rock-indie-scene craziness, for one night only Public goes queer! The front room is the famed and fantastic PantyHos Party by your killer host Ally. The mixed crowd of girls, gender-queer, and generally the best of the borough turn out all the time for this limited engagement (rumor has it this is the first of their last three parties!) The boys who look like girls and the girls who look like boys crew of Gender Bender is in the back room and I’ve organized Fright Night. It’s sure to be wild. Start by grabbing your Babeland bag of goodies and grab a drink. A fortuneteller will be on site to forecast the evening and much more. DJ MISS CAKES will spin electro, disco gay trash and the GO-GO boys and girls will get to it. Have your Halloween coffin shot by GB’s own GO-GO photographer! The show stopping, albeit old, Estelle will be onsite to judge and fabricate, so watch out. The drag stylings of glamazon drag queen Thorgy will perform along side the always mysterious and perfectly strange Ozma. Expect surprise performances, scary giveaways by First Floor Down Productions, and mayhem. Some proceeds of both parties will go to the new Brooklyn Pride Center to help them continue to grow. It’s $5 at the door for each party, but both are only $9! So do it!
Face to Cele-hate: The queen of pop Madonna’s performance in League of their Own was that of a bucksome, rowdy and super hot ballplayer. Her face is a far cry from that refreshing innocence. We love her for it, but its tragic.
Saturday
Happy Halloween!
Day: Prospect Height’s own Ortine is a perfect daytime spot for you to pre-game for the Halloween festivities. The Gender Bender crew from the night before will be recovering in style at our First Annual Halloween Gay Brunch/Record Swap! DJ Sunshine spins old soul and funk and the mimosas won’t stop! Expect Babeland, Seasonal Sangria, and Breakfast Pizza! DJ Ron Like Hell & MISS CAKES were good enough to throw-down for this throwback record swap, so bring some vinyl and exchange some tunes. Costumes encouraged and come rain or shine! Balls to the Wall, Estelle, and Brooklyn The Borough will all be there, mimosa in hand! Come out for some daytime drinking and great brunch!
Face to Cele-hate: Burt Reynolds was one of the hottest cowboy actors in Hollywood when he hit the screen. His once zexy bro-face is now as tight as a drum. It’s a mess.
Night: Right off the Classon G train stat Sputnik has been headquarters for Wednzgays, TMJ and other queer perfection. They are my pick for for Halloween time fun. Costumes, queens, and queers will pack the place for TMJ: Halloween Edition. You can grab a late dinner and join right in with the party, I recommend the Elk Burger! The Obituaries will perform and DJ Lesbian Van Halen, Tikka and Shomi Noise will spin 80s & 90s hits. Drink specials, fake blood, and booty shakin’ will be mandatory and the cuties from Pratt and young professionals of Clinton Hill will no doubt be cruising for a scary piece. Bloodhound Photography will be on site to create its usual urban vintage party shot perfection. It’s 5 bones til 11pm so hit it up early. I will be there to win whatever costume contest they might throw, bring – it – on!
Face to Cele-hate: Meg Ryan’s once perfect face started the “trout mouth” look and is a scene-stealer in all her latest movies. Her once ironic and dear quirkiness post surgery looks a little like the joker’s grimace. Just watch When Harry Meet Sally and then The Women, it is truly unreal.
