You are Michael Alig. You are king of the Club Kids. You are the crack-smoking gay party promoter with a penchant for hotpants, red lipstick and Andy Worhol. You created some of the wildest parties this country has ever seen. You had it all.. fame, money,.. men. So what if you helped kill your drug dealer, chopped off his legs, sprinkled him with baking soda, and humped the box you stuffed him in. You're still pretty and you know it!
About me: Garden-variety artsy broad with a love of life, a lot to learn, and a car fetish.
Who I'd like to meet: My guardian angel and my co-driver for La Carrera Panamericana.
“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
Theodore Roosevelt
Speech at the Sorbonne
