Drag Queens Replace Cocaine as Model Accessory

We were all kind of surprised and delighted to see Carolyn and Andre J on the cover of French Vogue.

Now Kate Moss has been spotted with her own cross dressing pal, Jodie Harsh. The Daily Mail saw them partying together in London, and we know that Jodie has DJed several London Fashion parties where Kate’s been center stage. And while Kate stars in spreads for ELLE and Vogue, Jodie Harsh is a fashion stylist for SuperSuper Magazine, which is like a British version of Nylon, if Nylon snorted Pixie Sticks for breakfast.

But word is the 23-year-old Jodie (neé Jay Clark) was so stunning in her (his?) 80’s disco outfit and bleach-blonde pouf that she (he?) stole the spotlight from Kate.

The hot model accessory used to be a cute photographer or the obligatory rock star. But now it seems models only want to hang out with Drag Queens and trannies - and even Carine Roitfeld wants to see more.

Maybe this is the complement to menswear-inspired clothing?

C'mon girls, that whole "should we call the drag queen she or he?" is so unhip hetero in the suburbs.

I don't know if I should be offended, or just stupified!

Now, usually I love this site, but this post made my blood boil. How dare you compare drag queens-- on transvestites-- to accessories? As if they were some kind of non-living, unfeeling trend that can go in and out of style. It's one thing to celebrate sexual diversity, and quite another to liken them to a purse or illicit drug.

I think you may be reading too much into the title; if you actually read the post, it compares drag queens to hot models and photographers. We have great respect and appreciation for Andre and also for Jodi, actually.

And while it's unfortunate that many famous people use others as accessories or ornaments, it's certainly true. We're merely observing it.
