I woke up this morning to this email

(Thanks, honey, for making my day. You’re a star!)

Ze!, honey…

Oh my God, you are SO cute girlfriend. I just got your CD today via airmail – all the way from Malaysia. Damn, I thought it was coming to me here in So. California from like New York or something. So, all is forgiven that it took, like, 3 weeks to get here ha! The CD is fabulous. Actually, it gets EPIC in many many instances. You really missed your moment in the sun though. I can see you existing in the early 80’sw when music was new-wave, crazy, fast, experimental, about ANY topic and totally had a sense of humor. Why weren’t you born earlier?!

Just wanted to write to you and wish you all the success you deserve, sincerely. You are so talented and your music is a true beacon to artists everywhere. I wish I mattered more in influential circles than I actually do so I could introduce you to the masses here in L.A. Just keep doing what you do and love what you’re doing and you’ll get “there”, wherever “there” is for you girlfriend.

As a drooling fan, can I please ask you to release “X Lover” next with a bunch of remixes? Or, “Haircut” could also be a song/video for the history books, F.Y.I. Speaking of f.y.i., I credit the guy over at the (UK?) site electroqueer.com for introducing me to your music, so big props to him. And, I TOTALLY get all your references to MADONNA and see how your music and aesthetics connect to hers… and love you more for it!

Big hugs and smooches from a queen in Long Beach, CA

Singing BOYS I LIKE at a gay festival has been the ultimate dream. Heck, I canceled my show with Joachim at Chicago’s Lollapalooza for this – it was a pain getting my ass on that boat in amsterdam in time for the Canal Parade (i was at an M.I.A. concert 3 hours away the night before but thats a different story) and it rained the entire fckn day but hell, it was WORTH IT. Also performing on Lovedance boat #36 were the Vengaboys and they were SO much fun! Couldn’t possibly get more gay than that! Loved it. And, is it a surprise that i actually knew pretty much all the words to their songs? Here are pictures taken by photographer Jack Undercover. More pictures are on my facebook.

Rocket to Uranus!

p/s: Thank you, Amsterdam. The experience was surreal.
