"He was Jayne Mansfield meets Godzilla."

"He wanted me to eat with him all the time."

"He was a pothead!"

"How would you feel about kissing a 300-pound transvestite?"

"It's his actual turd."

No, these aren't comments from the Danny Kaye documentary coming out.

It's from the documentary Jeffrey Schwarz is making about late, great drag star Divine.

Watch the clip and see a bunch of notables comment of Divvy's eccentric genius -- including my own immortal quote, "It was punk. It was glamorous. I was vomiting" -- and even learn how you can become a producer and walk the red carpet!

Wearing your own turd!

I can't wait to see it. Ms. Divine was the best! So many great and outrageous performances, though Francine Fishpaw may be my favorite of all!

I have watched this promo video four times today. Just love Divine's turn of a phrase. A big loss for movie fans.

I'm fairly young, but having discovered Divine a few years ago and having been an over the top fan since, I simply can't contain the absolutely thrill I have for this! I'm actually kind of glad John isn't doing it, as I think it'd feel to personal for him, and some aspects he might disregard as, "Oh that's just Divi!" So the "from a fan for the fans" remains true. Although I'm certain John will be quite helpful in any way.

You do have to wonder.

"It was punk. It was glamorous. I was vomiting"-- about sums it all up for me. Ha! But watching these clips mad me realize something. Divine was a better actor than Tab Hunter!! Sounds like a great project...now if I only had a spare scheckel. Paging Barry Diller!!!
