Thursday's Thrift Thrills!
Are you a fan of fans? I know I am...especially when I find a selection of three, count 'em...THREE gorgeous, colorful, souvenier fans from somewhere in Spain...stuck shamelessly in a plastic bag on the knick-knack wall at Value Village...for...(be still my beating heart)...what?? $2.99?! Mine! I knock over small children for finds like this! Just look at the lovely details...the smaller black one is hand-painted...aren't they fun? They'd be just the thing at my next tapas party!

Tuesday Tube
You know who I think is HOT HOT HOT??? ...Seattle burlesque sensation, Iva Handfull, that's who! Why? Because she's edgy, diverse, statuesque and sex-ayyy...that's why! So, for the Tuesday Tube, I just had to include this video she created for a recent Nine Inch Nails contest...it is incredible, I know!! but if you think this is something, you should see her perform her take on Prince or Napoleon Dynamite sometime...
Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!
Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!

Hollywood, here I come!
Is Hollywood ready for the Gams? Well, I guess we'll all find out come June 12, when *A Wink & A Smile* premieres at Laemmle's Sunset 5 in Hollywood, USA...here's the outfit I'm working on...
You know, friends...Butterick Pattern Co. and I have a very different idea of what's meant by the words *VERY EASY* -- to me, anything that requires lining and a zipper is anything but easy...not to mention I've chosen a fabric with a glitter finish, just ready to break a sewing machine needle or two...nevertheless, I'm going to make this dress if it kills me! Raw, wild, untamed GLAMOUR!!! That's just what they need more of in Hollywood, dontcha think? xo Love, Gams

Floity Yitto Boidies
Yes, I'm one of 'em...a flirty little birdy, that is...which is one of the reasons I picked the name Panache! for my original burlesque name...and I just came across the most wonderful collection of terms used for groups of birds...how about a *charm* or a *trembling* of finches...a *bouquet*, a *glittering* or a *shimmer* of hummingbirds (so glamorous!)...a *band*, *cast*, *party*, or *scold* of jays (party animals, obviously!)...a *worm* of robins (how appropriate!)...or, my favorite...a *slurp* of sapsuckers?? Alas, there's only one of my kind of bird around. Probably a good thing.

A Wink and A Smile
Talk about glamour! Guess what, my darlingest of darlings? I'm preparing for tonite's Gala Opening Celebration of the best documentary on earth, "A Wink and A Smile", produced and directed by Deirdre Timmons http://www.winkthemovie.com/ This is the kind of shit I live for: champagne, paparazzi, and enough glitter to cover the earth!
Here's a pic of me and one of my many fans! As you can see, I'm an absolute vision in my *Schiaparelli Pink* tuxedo & tails, which includes a break-away vest! And how do you like my oh-so-perky tophat? huh? huh? Anyway, when I perform my version of "Puttin' on the Ritz" --"Pushin' Up My Tits" -- at the end, I pull the ripcords on the vest to reveal pink sequinned pasties (is it my imagination, or do they sort of look areola-like? heh. guess you'll just have to use your imagination!) Anyway, you can bet I'll be having a wonderful time and wishing you were there, my friends...see you in Hollywood!
Love, Gams

Welcome to my world!
Hello, friends...
it's Me, that Glamorous Gal with the Golden Gullet, Miss Gams Galore, inviting you to take a peek at this new blog I'm creating...I've been living and loving the glamorous life lately, and I'm just dying to share some tasty tidbits with you, my many fans!! In case you didn't already know, I'm a Comedic Diva from Seattle, and a proud graduate of the soon-to-be-infamous Miss Indigo Blue's Academy of Burlesque (don't worry, I'll pass on the link eventually!) My alter-ego is featured in Deirdre Timmon's burlesque documentary, *A Wink and A Smile*, which is making its way around the country as we blog....http://www.winkthemovie.com
What does a glamorous gal like me do, anyway? Well, it's glorified karaoke, really...except I rewrite those tired, overplayed old lyrics and spice 'em up a bit...kinda Weird Al style, only with a Broadway via Vegas twist...and if you like home videos, I have a fun you-tube site, where I sing those little ditties along with my hand-puppet pals, Oso the Bear, Buzz Buzzard, and Vermina the white rat. Vermina is my drinkin' buddy, Buzz is sort of a ladies' man, and Oso, well, he's just a cute and cuddly teddy bear. I think you'll like my songs, but remember, some are for adults only...and it also helps if you know the original songs I'm "par-o-dee-ing"! eh...funnier that way...or not.
Oh, and did I mention I'm a lady of leisure? That's the glamorous term for *bum*...anyway, not only do I occupy my time writing lyrics, but I'm also a vintage fanatic...vintage what?...whaddaya got?? I'm known as the "Picky Little Bitch" for more reasons than one...I'll be sharing some of my finds here...because I must. So, I won't keep you, my darlings, but please check back from time to time...this ought to be fun!
I'll leave you with a pic of my door at the Jupiter Hotel in Portland...see you next time!
Love, Gams
