I LOVE Curtis’s architectural confections! Like I said before, the use of Swedish fish as statuary on his last creation was inspired!
I wonder if he has ever tried a modern landmark, like Falling Water? I can’t wait to see this year’s masterpiece.
Love this show.
Funny story about recignizing you boys in public: last night my boyfriend and I were at Melrose on Broadway, and while I paid the check, he asks from behind me, “Does Mark have a moustache?”
I’m like, “Uh, he used to. Why?”
So he holds up the back of Gay Chicago magazine — your Live At Steamworks ad – and looked really confused. Apparently he also thought those were your real bodies.
I lol’d.
Great show!
For what it’s worth – Curtis said that the “Judeo-Christian” view is that sex is a sin. But, the Jews don’t believe sex is a sin – not even a little bit. Just the Christians.
For the Jews – if a woman’s not getting good sex (or enough sex, for that matter) it’s legal grounds for a divorce.
Are you kidding me Robbie? Try telling a Hassidic Jewish person that sex isn’t dirty. Not all Jewish people are pro-gay, and many sects force women to live in segregated homes. THAT is sex positive? Give me a break!
No religion is free from bull. And the ones who claim their’s is the “friendly” one is simply wrong.
Does Curtis have posted pictures of his past gingerbread creations? I would love to see more. Can not wait for the holidays just to see what he will come up with this year. A truly funny show. I almost spit out my fudgesicle when you guys were talking about yelling at people in the hospital-as over the top examples of blaming people who are sick instead of having compassion for them.
Poor Beyonce and her barely noticeable wardrobe malfunction. Janet Jackson can sing and dance better than her and even expose her nipple better than Beyonce.
Why is society so scared of female nipples?

Most hassidic people would agree that sex isn’t dirty – in fact, there are laws that a man MUST pleasure his wife.
And what you call “force segregated” – for many it’s part of the effort to build up sex – to make it into something holy and special, rather than just another thing to do.
You may not agree with their motivations (neither do I, for that matter) but that doesn’t make them evil people.
i kept seeing that pierced lady this summer in edinburgh, she frequented the same cafe i would go to for wifi and i *loved* her street performances. it was fun watching her scare children.
Great show with Curtis!
Fausto, why not play some of your “special” music on the show from time to time? I would appreciate it!
I know Elaine, the pierced lady. She frequented the old LGBT Centre in Glasgow often as I guess she fitted in with us other ‘freaks’. She’s a lovely lady but totally mad. She’s Brazilian, but says she lives in Scotland as she likes men in kilts. When asked where she liked to be kissed, she replied ‘All over’ and her first ever piercing was in her ladyparts. She said on a TV show recently that her whole life she wanted to be in the Guinness Book of Records but her parents held her back. That’s some way to rebel against them!
