WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT JACKIE BEAT...
“Jackie Beat is the greatest drag queen on earth!” - Roseanne Barr
“A true triple threat...Talent, Beauty and the Beat. Jackie has it all! A great talent, pure genius!” - RuPaul
"Beat is a trained theater actress, but no amount of training could make a person this talented, this witty, or this scathing. The show should just be called ’Jackie Beat is a Fucking Genius.’" - The Village Voice
“Menacing, sad and hysterically funny... and then there’s the voice. Jackie’s voice has the power and range of a Broadway star and an old-school Black Diva.” - Provincetown Magazine
"Beat's sharp stand-up routine remains virtually unchallenged in the drag scene." - HX Magazine
"Hilarious... Incredibly satisfying... Seriously recommended. What are you waiting for?"
- NEXT Magazine
"A large and in-charge petulant drag queen who flies in the face of supermodel wannabes and mundane underworld depravity." - New York Press
"Jackie Beat gives 'til it hurts! This gal can sing!" - Time Out New York
"Beat keeps the crowd howling!" - New York Post
"A breath (make that a blast) of fresh air in a genre that constantly teeters on the brink of irrelevance." - Genre Magazine
"If she actually slays you with her barbed-wire witticism, I'm sure that she'll politely step over your carcass on the way to the bar." - HX Magazine
"A large, sexy and twisted gal, armed with an endless store of one-liners. A rollercoaster ride of raunch and rudeness." - The Seattle Weekly
"Jackie Beat always puts on an awe-inspiring, hilarious show." - Edge Magazine
"Jackie Beat is so funny she could get laughs by merely reading the want ads." - The LA Weekly
"Ms. Beat's performances are in little danger of being relegated to the theme-club, drag queen barrio from which she is rapidly emerging as a star." - Bang Magazine
Jackie Beat is superb. Rippingly funny... Equally hilarious and oddly moving. A polished performer, her wigs and costumes reveal rather than mask." - The LA Weekly
"Jackie Beat is a campy riot!" - The LA Reader
"You haven't arrived on the scene until you have felt the cold glare of Jackie Beat reading your tired ass." - Planet Homo
"A divine drag queen with a heart of coal, Miss Beat is a treat!" - LGNY
"One of downtown's scarier divas. Something for everyone... well, everyone with really bad taste, at least." - Sidewalk New York
"First terrorists, then anthrax and now Jackie Beat!" – HX Magazine
"Perversely twisted" – Next Magazine
"Jackie Beat, the self-proclaimed World’s Best Drag Queen, is not to be missed." – New York Blade
"For Beat, lack of subtlety isn’t just a lifetime trait; it’s an art form." – Back Stage
"Some small children may be frightened" – The New York Times
“Just when you thought that trannies were about as hip as Deee-Lite and platform shoes, Lady Beat has come up and hit us over the head with her humor, her falsies, her creativity, her artistic endeavors and her staying power.” - Beardburn.com
AND THE CRITICS JUST LOVE JACKIE'S AWARD-WINNING HOLIDAY SHOW, TOO...
“A crabby alternative to Christmas cheer. Tacky, tasteless and hysterical! An oasis of bile in a season of sappy sentiment.” - Time Out New York
“Unforgettable! A holiday tradition is born!” - On & Off Magazine
“Jackie Beat’s holiday show will knock you out!” - The Village Voice
“A hilarious not-to-be-missed holiday tradition!” - HX Magazine

Books
Just finished "Dark at the Roots" by Sarah Thyre. LOVED IT! Right now I am tearing through Rue McClanahan's saucy autobiography, "My First Five Husbands." In case you've been living under a rock for the past 25 years, you just awoke from a coma, you're stupid and/or straight or you are a mere child who idolizes Jeffree Star -- Rue played Blanche Deveraux on The Golden Girls. Turns out she was quite the slut in real life, too! A MUST READ! Update: Just finished Rue's book (GENIUS!) and then I read "Starstruck" by Michael Joseph Gross. SO GOOD! Fame is so fucked. Just finished CULT OF THE AMATEUR by Andrew Keen -- highly recommended! Okay, an update: Finished "When You Are Engulfed In Flames" by David Sedaris (loved it!) and "Life With My Sister Madonna" by Christopher Ciccone (no Pulitzer Prize here, but fun!) and now I am reading "Right Is Wrong" by Arianna Huffington. Had to put Ariana's book down for awhile and read "Hollywood Gays" -- sent to me for my birthday from Senor Amor & Miss Jonona. Thanks! It was a great read! Then my pal Daniel loaned me Chelsea Handler's book "Are You There Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea" and it was a fluffy good time. I love how when someone kisses her without permission she calls it "Face Rape". Anyhoo, back to Ariana...

People who read.
Anyone who can sit through an entire movie without text messaging.
Faggots who prefer Karen Carpenter, Chrissy Hynde or Billie Holiday over Madonna.
Nice people. Nice is more important than smart or fashionable.
Funny people. If you cannot laugh at yourself -- keep walking.
Dog lovers. If you do not love dogs -- get the fuck away from me.
Love you Jackie, hope life is treating you well. Maybe we'll see you in Houston, Texas again soon. Do you remember a bad called Army of Lovers? I just rediscovered them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Army_of_Lovers
