GOWNTOWN is Xtra's Halloween Pick!
Thursday/22/October 2009 Filed in: Gowntown
We're about a week away from the debut of GOWNTOWN (Friday October 30)
Barbie-Q and I, Hard Kora have been busy learning some new precision coreo as well as ripping up old costumes to create some new costumes. Project Runway eat your heart out!
DJ Dwayne Minard is even getting a manicure as he preps those hands to spin some great house and disco tunez for all the kids of GOWNTOWN.
Xtra gave us a little nod in their Halloween Roundup today!
"If you’re gonna wig out, maybe you’d better work up to those heels the night before to avoid disastrous drag on the main strip. Consider stopping by The B-Girlz’ presentation of Gowntown on Fri, Oct 30 at Buddies (12 Alexander St) for some transtastic tips at this amateur drag contest featuring DJ Dwayne Minard. Starts at 10:30pm with a $5 cover.
The Girlz were kind enough to offer some advice in advance of the big day. “Remember when applying lipstick,” Barbie-Q advises, “go around the lips and across the teeth.”
“And when getting dressed always have a few glasses of personality,” adds Hard Kora. “I come with an eight-drink minimum.” - Direct Link
Hope to see all our friends and fans with their dancing shoes. It's gonna be fab! - KORA

In 2004, Toronto was plagued by SARS, Mad Cow and Mel Lastman.
The B-Girlz decided they needed to get political and shot a musical tribute video to the town they love best.
The video features a cameo by city councillor and Jack Layton's main squeeze, Olivia Chow!

Barbie-Q Blamed for Swine Flu Epidemic!
The recent Swine Flu outbreak led to an investigation of Barbie-Q by the Canadian Pork Council and the CDC.
After being pubicly (not a typo) labeled a "little pink pig" by her latest boyfriend, Gary Carruthers, the CPC in conjunction with the CDC probed Barbie-Q to find whether or not she may have been linked to the recent spread of the imminent pandemic.
However, a closer examination of the situation revealed that the only spreading Barbie-Q did was her legs, which resulted in a minor rash contracted by Gary that can be easily rectified with petroleum jelly.
Barbie-Q could not be reached for comment."
