YUSSSSS!!! The reigning, and forever, QUEEN of NYC nightlife, David LaChapelle muse, and the sweetest doll you’ll ever meet, Amanda Lepore has just released her latest life soundtrack LEPORE.– a four track EP of infectious pop/dance, featuring a reenvisioning of one of David Bowie’s most famous songs The Jean Genie. The voluptuary transsexual (who had her bottom ribs broken to achieve her teenie tiny waist) originally released the track as an homage to the rock icon on his 71st birthday. Check out the campy vid below, featuring fan art Amanda has received over the years, edited by Scott J. Heller…and download LEPORE. (Peace Bisquit) on iTunes NOW!!! (above pic by Josef Jasso)
Amanda Lepore:
“When I was in the hospital getting my sex change, I was just wishing I could be a pretty girl working in a mall. If I could have a crystal ball and see what I look like now – you know, modeling, David LaChapelle, hanging out with Daphne Guinness, singing with Lil’ Kim, and traveling all over the world, I’d be like, “Wow, I can’t believe this.” (via Interview Magazine)
