Beth Ditto's Temptation

Lesbian singer Beth Ditto and Jarvis Cocker recently covered the 1983 hit, “Temptation”.

Beth Ditto Hot & Rockin!

My favorite Queer woman of rock Beth Ditto is featured in this months Spin magazine in an interview that shows how fab she really is, I just love her!

Do you find it at all marginalizing to be on Music With a Twist, a Columbia subsidiary for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender artists?
No, I love being on a queer label. You're sitting in a room with a group of people who have all the same reference points as you, you don't have to explain anything about your identity to them, and people aren't like, "What's a tranny?" It's not about integration versus segregation; it's just a way to get the music out there.

You've said that you think being a bigger, gay woman might have held the band back from mainstream success, but do you think it's also worked to your advantage?
I never would say that it worked to our advantage, but I think it's a breath of fresh air for a lot of people. And you gotta play the game. If you can work it, then you work it no matter what. And talent transcends all those things.

You have been known to strip onstage during live shows. Isn't there a danger that it will attract exactly the kind of attention that female musicians want to avoid?
I have a lot of things to say about that, and one of them is that it's important that the body becomes a normal thing. I don't think the rules are the same for me as they were for Courtney Love or [Bikini Kill/Le Tigre frontwoman] Kathleen Hanna, because I don't think my body was accepted in the same way. In the beginning, people were really uncomfortable with a big girl, so it was a radical political statement; and it's even more radical to not be objectified with your clothes off. Also, onstage, it's so hot we're dying. It just feels nice sometimes.

OUT 100 Staring Beth Ditto.

The five musicians on OUT Magazines top 100. Out musicans are so hot. Especially the plus size dive beth....yum.

Beth Ditto Happy Being A Big Fat Dyke!

The 26-year old diva singer of the group The Gossip tells The Telegraph she’s happy being a “big fat dyke”.

‘I didn’t hate my body. Other people did, which was hard to understand. ‘There was this fat-girl revolution. My whole life I’d felt that because you were fat you were never going to be successful, and then I met these people who said, “Actually, that’s not true. It’s sexy.”’

‘You can spend all that energy trying to change who you are and not get important things done, or you can accept it and do what matters. If what matters to you is starving yourself and working out, then that to me is so depressing. In the meantime you could be making a really amazing song or painting a great picture or meeting people who actually care about you.’

Beth Ditto Needs To Kiss Me!

Beth Ditto Gossips To The Advocate

BBW proud Beth Ditto the lesbian front woman for the band Gossip gave a wonderful interview in The Advocate. Here some hits but check out the full article. She is just fantastic!

So do you know who you're voting for in the presidential election?
I don't know who I'm voting for yet, and people keep asking me a lot. I think that on the one hand, people are surprised that I don't say “Hillary” immediately, but I just don't think civil unions are the best, because “separate but equal” is unconstitutional! It's bullshit, and we've been through this already.

When you were a kid, is there a certain singer that really resonated with you?
Miss Piggy is extremely iconic. There's no one higher than Miss Piggy. It's funny, but it's true -- she definitely was a huge influence on me as a teenager. Oh, and Patty Duke!

A party being thrown by an idol of yours whom you've never met before.
So, Roseanne Barr's gonna be there?

Roseanne Barr's gonna be there.

OK, so if Roseanne is there, I'd probably wear something hilarious. Like, I'd try to find that chicken shirt she always wore [on her sitcom]. Do you know that shirt, the one with the chicken eggs on it?
