Margaret Loves Bears!

Okay, we all know that, as a staunch advocate for the LGBT community, Margaret Cho loves all gays. But she has a particular affinity for bears, the fuller-figured, less-likely to be waxed or plucked, flannel-wearing section of the gay male population.

A few years ago, Margaret began a foray into music, proclaiming, "If Madonna can learn to play the guitar, so can I!" As part of her recently realized musician status, she befriended Jill Sobule, best known for "I Kissed A Girl" -- long before Katy Perry recorded a song by the same name.

Margaret has also been directing music videos for artists she admires. Her latest directorial effort is "The Bear Song" by Pixie Herculon (aka Jill Sobule with a cameo by Margaret herself).

Check out the video! It's a hoot! And please purchase the song on iTunes or Amazon! Spread the word!



And while you're buying music, check out Margaret's dance jam "I Cho Am A Woman."

Margaret Cho FINGERBANGS LA!

Tomorrow night, January 27, it's Margaret's musical extravaganza Fingerbang! She likens it to Hee-Haw, but less country and less corny. Our gal has gotten "guitarded" (her word, not mine) and has been singing songs such as "Eat Me Out" (on the Beautiful tour) and a Repeal Prop 8 ditty.

She'll be joined by Jill Sobule (she was kissing girls in the '90s, long before Katy Perry) as well as "Sensuous Woman" costars Liam Sullivan, Ian Harvie, Kurt Hall and Selene Luna. Check Margaret's site for info. Of course I'll be there and I'll report back on the festivities. I can't wait!!
