Saw that and was like "oh Divine from all those John Waters films is dead noooo!" and then discovered he's been dead since 1988. :(

Yeah nobody from outside the UK who is younger than about 37 will know who the hell she is.

I bet Normski's shitting it though.

I have no idea why Pfork writes these things. Nobody outside this dude’s immediate family has a clue who he is.

I have a couple of his albums actually, this one is good:

My Dad went to school with Divine. My dad was as singer in a popular band in Baltimore at the time and had a national top 20 ish hit. Things were different back then, More regional with radio stations. Many stories. Anyway, his hit song is in the original hairspray and also in the top 20 songs that changed Brian Eno BBC Arena doc

Very cool.  What was his band's name.

Jake Phelps, the editor of Thrasher Magazine has died. Weird dude, but he made cool things happen.

Found her weirdly hot and she probably contributed to my tastes in odd looking women
