well, we are on our way back today. it will take us 24 hours to get home but boy do we have some stories for you. Hong Kong was totally insane. We have been so busy that I had no time to post. but we have met some of the most amazing charecters on the planet....I have finally had the "Blade Runner" fantasy I have dreamed about for years. The first night I walked off the plane was like something I wished for as a teen. All the streets were wet reflecting the TONS of neon signs,I walked around with my cyberpunk outfit, black boots and black shades. stopped at a noodle shop and ate a delicious noodle soup while looking at the double decker trams go by under the huge neon chinese letters. another night Debbie and I walked in what she kept calling the "hot rain" in our full costumes from the show. we walked down the rainy street in the middle of traffic chaos and I filmed her walking into a 7Eleven and buying a disposable camera. She looked amazing in full make-up and big blond wig. We have met people like Beth, who was the first female DJ in HK during the 60's (and she will tell you that) she IS Patsy. So much more to tell , and pictures on the way so off to London then ,.....yes! NYC home. we arrive on Mon 11 am. I'm sure I'll post more in London. we have a 3 hour layover...until then

we have done this town!

love to all...

Hey all, we made it to London, 3 hour layover and then...home.

Jade- we perform to DAT tracks. no live band.But a lot of the songs are remixes for nightclub dates.

Wait till you hear about the Hong Kong show! Bill Clinton and this water sweetie. We brought Jaiko and Viva to Hong Kong to perform with us because the venue was so huge. It was an enormous convention center built in the harbor,huge stage, 2 huge projection screens,lights....yadda yadda. The whole thing was so sick. We performed for all these super rich foreign investment suits and their skinny trophy wives. along side a bunch of Hong Kong hipsters who hustled their way in. What a weird night! But the best thing about it was we told them NOTHING about our show, not even the director. So needless to say when Garrett and I tore our suits off to reveal the ladies under-garments......I think it came as quite a surprise to some people...ha! It was so punk, they didn't know what hit them. Then I remembered later that night what Terrance Sellers told me about the men on Wall St. and how most of them are wearing ladies undies under their suits.......some of those men must have had a funny feeling inside when we just stood there in our glory being projected on 20 ft screens. Ha!The show went really well though.

There are so many stories to tell, but I think Miss Bigalow should continue. I'm fried.

but I promise to post picts from the Hong Kong show, they will be the keepers!

love to all.....can't wait to see you.
Since posting the DH and the FS gallery I've received tons of e-mails but this one killed me. Someone swiped one of my sleeves from the stage in London and we had the hardest time getting one made in Hong Kong. Now by the power of the Motherboards I have found the thieves.Check this out.......

I'm hoping this is Rob Roth's email address?!
Well, assuming it IS.... I just wanted to say Hi and tell you how much I LOVED
Deborah Harry and the Fishsticks at G-A-Y in London last month. My friend and
I were right at the front (we got crushed to the point of death but we had a
great view!!) We always see Debbie and Blondie whenever they're in the UK, but
this was definitely the wildest, most fun performance we've ever seen! If only
it were longer tho wink
You all looked like you were having a great time.
And if one of you is missing
a suit-sleeve.... sorry.... it flew towards my friend's head and so we kept
it. We saw you leave the Astoria later, but in our drunken stupor we forgot to
return it to you. And, speaking of clothing, we'd love to know where Debbie
got her corset and transparent stilletto mules from...

We love ya!!!

So yes its true....Debbie and the Fishsticks brought the house down last Saturday night...I have to admit that all of us were really unsure about the event and if we should do anything , but who could say no to Patsy and Edina? Debbie looked amazing and sounded even better. She did "One Way or Another" while Garrett and I tore into each other like madmen and ripped apart our suits to reveal our shredded t-shirts that said Patsy and Edina in silver letters across them. Joanna and Jennifer were gagging, they LOVED the show . Joanna asked me after how we decided which names to wear....I said , duh! I'm the blonde and he's the redhead.

and as if that was not enough , Jennifer invited me to be in the Absolutely Fabulous shoot at Bryant Park the next day. Garrett and I arrived at the tents the next morning wondering if we would make it into a background shot but shortly after arriving we had discovered that Jennifer had made a scene just for us. We only had time for 2 takes because of the "real" fashion show that was going on at the time but it was hilarious. Lets hope it makes it in. I have to say that just hanging out with Jennifer and Joanna in full Patsy and Edina realness in the real Fashion tents of Bryant Park , making fun of the models was the greatest gift I could ask for. Two totally fabulous women!.

The outrageous Edina and Patsy are back for a one off special on BBC ONE later this year.

Joining them are the long suffering Saffy, Mother and Bubble. The show also features special guest stars Whoopi Goldberg (as social counsellor Goldie), with Debbie Harry and Graham Norton playing themselves alongside some very familiar faces from the cat walk scene.

Patsy (Joanna Lumley) has now left her job on a glossy magazine to become a very important Creative Director and Buyer for Jeremy's, a new concept fashion store.

This gives Patsy, Fleur (Harriet Thorpe), and Catriona (Helen Lederer) the perfect opportunity to take London Fashion Week by storm. Having got a taste for flash photography, frocks and male models, Patsy sets her sights across the Atlantic and plans a trip to New York Fashion Week.

Eddie (Jennifer Saunders) meanwhile with no company left to run combines trying to find yet more new ways to lose weight with attempts to train Bubble (Jane Horrocks) as her personal PA, until Mother (June Whitfield) lets it slip that Eddie's long lost son Serge is not studying at the bottom of the ocean, but living in the party capital of America - New York.

Despite Saffy's (Julia Sawalha) best attempts to hide her brother's exact whereabouts, Eddie and Patsy set their sights on the Big Apple in search of Serge and some "bling, bling".

While the pair wreck havoc in the city that never sleeps, Bo (Mo Gaffney) and Serges father, Marshall (Christopher Ryan) are running a Christian TV show and Saffy is observing the world from inside a cupboard as she believes this will help her career as a writer.

The 2002 Ab Fab Special

Wait a minute...
They didn't mention The Fishsticks!
