Evolution of My Crazy Bitch

There are those of you who would nail some of my favorite crazy ladies to a cross. If you do, let me know. They’d want someone to take photos. Their craziness is art and I LOVE IT!

For me it started with Wendy O’Williams. Actually it probably started with my grandmother, Mimi. Then Grace Jones! Demolition Man is my favorite but this video for La Vie En Rose give a good visual overview of her beautiful, hard ass, 21 century amazingness. Grace Jones with Pavarotti

Madonna probably had the greatest impact on me. Lucky Star came out when I needed a feisty role model. Express Yourself, Vogue (mtv awards), Human Nature are some of my favorites. Erotica and Like A Prayer are a few of the most controversial but this blew me away when I saw Madonna in Houston in 1989. It was the first time I saw drag queens in person. Yipee! I’ll spare you photos of  me with Madonna haircuts & clothing w/jelly bracelets.  Imagine.

I went out and found my own drag queens and there was a stint where I was highly influenced by the band Vixen. Laugh all you want. I was much more suited to be a metal girl than try to pull off being Madonna! Definitely some Joan Jett and Lita Ford thrown in there.

And finally we have arrived at this point. Lady Gaga. A grand answer to a missing element of music in my life for some time. I was just going to watch this one video and return to work. But I love me some crazy bitches and wanted to tell you about them! oooo la ah ha ha ah

UPDATE: I should add Annie Lennox, Amanda Palmer and the Texas Rollergirls……

Hell Mary Salute

Scarlot Harlot was a bad rollergirl and didn’t make it to the roller derby all season. Tomax sums it all up.

Check out the Austin Chronicle write up and watch the Texas Rollergirls to see what other events will show up in the off season!
Oh yeah, the Hotrods won again…..

Roller Derby Track Shorts. NO NO NO!

I’d like to thank everyone in roller derby who wears their 70s underwear as their uniform for making it possible for this to be a legitimate rollergirl Halloween outfit. Sure this girl is smoking hot in her rainbow bright outfit but mostly all I see is camel toes. There should be a box for these & rocky mountain jeans with a sign that reads, “If your ass doesn’t fit in this box, you shouldn’t put it in track shorts or rocky mountain jeans.”

I think KERRY WARE, producer of DOLLS is feeling me. This is her bio pic for the documentary about the DERBY DOLLS. It’s cute when you’re a kid or you have an insanely beautiful body…

If your booty doesn’t fit in the box wear these shorts so i can at least just laugh at it instead of throwing up in my mouth a  little.

That is all. XxOoXOxo,

2 musicians and a rollergirl walk into a bar….

Oh Yeah! So what about that bar? Chris Jagger is a singer/guitar player, John Peyton is a harmonica player and in case I haven’t reminded you in the last 48 hours, I am the Scarlot Harlot, the red head with bedhead. Now what I am about to tell you isn’t very lady like but the Scarlot Harlot is no lady, Chris and Mick Jagger’ are brothers and the first time I talked to John Peyton, we talked more about how he could own his own roller derby team more than his web page…SO…

After uploading a new music file for John Peyton, I was looking for patches for a roller derby sundress I pieced together with old derby shirts. The Scarlot Harlot had a lovely red plaid school girl skirt covered in patches and wouldn’t you know…there on the front of that dirty girl’s skirt was the Rolling Stones mouth in purple. Oh my!

Having been hit on the head too many times it will just be easier to share a photo montage and it will also give Scarlot, the bedheaded stranger, the opportunity for self promotion of herself, the Texas Rollergirls & roller derby fans  she loves so much. Especially the self promotion part!!!!

It’s true the Scarlot Harlot had the Rolling Stone patch right over her hoochie coo. Oh Dear, but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do to earn the respect of people she knocks down on a regular basis and keep up with sexy cowgirls like Bettie Rage.

Pixie harassed us so much of the time we just learned to ignore her. Scarlot with Satina, Misty Meaner and Pixie.

Gibson guitar headquarters in Austin, Tx.

Once there was unlimited time to gossip in the parking lot, gamble, pose for photos and  listen to Lone Star Revival to save our wicked souls!

Misty Meaner is saluting the Stones or trying to lick me. Probably both! Mean Streak and Amen don’t even care!

When you are just looking for the mouth, it starts getting ridiculous!
While we are talking about the Rolling Stones…I recently watched a documentary about them playing a free concenrt for 1.2 million people in Brazil. Unbelievable.

The Scarlot Harlot as a Holy Roller only had time to put KISS on this skirt. Go watch Hell on Wheels to find out why her skirt color changed. You also have to watch Whip It featuring the Holy Rollers and Marcia Gay Harden who John performs with at the 2010 University of Texas Commencement Ceremonies. No one played harmonica at my UT graduation! It’s a small world indeed.

CHEERS to Jagger Peyton!!! Love all your shows but especially proud of all your charity work and your enthusiasm about all you do!

Hell Marys love the Cathedral of Junk. Save it!

After more than 20 years of life, the Cathedral of Junk is not up to code. Wonder what cranky neighbor or busy body came after this “Keep Austin Weird” artistic landmark.  Maybe a fat cat has an original condo idea for this fella’s backyard?

While I believe there is a solution being worked on right now to Save the Cathedral, it’s ridiculous for a city that boasts “Live Music Capital of the World” and “Keep Austin Weird” to be so reckless with it’s creative types. I don’t recall anyone building a musicians/bartender/sound guy condo downtown so the people who make their money on 6th st or Red River could walk to work. I haven’t forgotten about the Intel building despite it’s recent strickening from the Austin skyline. The artists even converted that eye soar into a work of beauty with aerial performance.

Okay…I’m stepping off my soapbox and want to show the Celesta Danger photos of  the Hell Marys at the Cathedral of Junk which won an Austin Chronicle 2006 Best of Austin Award and has 4.5 stars out of 5 stars on Yelp.  There are more photos but these are just some random ones I found. LEAVE the Cathedral alone! Geezzz! Please post a comment if you have any useful links.

Texas Rollergirls Old School Commercial

Swingtown gives me Boogie Fever

“My name is Beth and I am a Netflix Addict. It’s been five minutes since my last Showtime Series.”

It’s true. Now that I can watch Netflix on my computer, I’ve seen the first season of Californication, Swingtown and am well into the first season of Hotel Babylon in no time at all. All great shows but my main focus here is Swingtown from the director of “Big Love” and “Rome.”

Let’s all dive back into the 70s where there was really a chance you might get to sleep with your neighbor’s wife. The wife swapping, the groovy clothes, the cocaine, the HUSTLE! It’s all there, but the show does a great job of developing the characters and making it funny and crazy without looking like Hustler magazine. A great insight to the sexual revolution and women’s struggling to become equals with their husbands and move out into the working world.

I am a fan of Molly Parker who played Alma Garret, a rich woman who inherited her murdered husband’s gold claim on Deadwood and not just because she reminds me of my old friend Hissy Fit. The main swinger lady reminds me of one of my best friends, Christina Cagle aka Satina. The clothes and music are great. A battle between the June Cleavers of the world and the ladies who want a little more. Unfortunatley, there is only one season of Swingtown despite efforts to bring it back and you will want to know what happens after episode 13!

Whip It Movie Trailer

Juliette Lewis is a Holy Roller!!!!! HELL YEAH! Scarlot Harlot loves that but I don’t know what she will think about  the movie! It is very weak they gave Lewis Dinah-mite’s name!!!! Of course it’s spelled Dinah Might. Obviously a blatant rip off. Booo. We started roller derby back in motion here in Austin, Tx. At the very least, they could pay Dinah-mite some green for all the time and energy she put into developing that character. Without a doubt there will probably be a lot of intellectual property stealing. The trailer looks pretty funny. Drew Barrymore’s laugh in the trailer rings a bell.
