Lady Gaga or Lady Boy?

Lady Gaga plans to wear a fake penis on stage.

The ‘Bad Romance’ singer – who has been dogged by speculation she has had a sex change or has both sets of genitals – can understand where rumours she is a hermaphrodite have come from and plans to make fun of them in an “artistic” way.
The 23-year-old star said: “I want to wear a d**k strapped to my vagina. We all know that one of the biggest talking points of the year was that I have a d**k, so why not give them what they want?
“I also carry myself onstage in a masculine way and sing in a low register. This is not of nowhere, right?
“I want to comment on that in a beautiful, artistic way. How I wanna show it. And I want to call this piece ‘Lady Gaga Dies Hard’. Come on, come see me try to persuade everyone to let me wear a penis.”
The controversial star – who is well known for her outlandish stunts and outrageous outfits – also blasted contradictory attitudes to sexuality, which let men be more vocal about their conquests than women.
She told Q magazine: “When a guy says, ‘Oh I f***ed all these chicks this week’, there’s a high-five and giggling. But when a woman does it and its publicised or she’s open about her sexuality or she’s free or liberated, it’s ‘Oh, she must have a d**k’. There’s a threat.”

Wedding Tip: Dinner instead of gift?

Have your guests buy their dinner in lieu of a gift, this is a good way of weeding out the people who are just there for the free night out.

Whitney not the every woman she used to be.

Pop diva Whitney Houston has struggled through the opening night of her first Australian tour since 1988. The singer got through two songs in Brisbane on Monday night before appearing breathless and exhausted, taking a break & then carrying a towel with her for the next few songs.After half a dozen songs, during some of which she coughed, she left the stage to take a break.
