Another memory of Rose, and our beloved band of freaks:
I remember once visiting Rose in the hospital while we were shooting “Freak Show”…  When I entered her room, I was struck by its diversity:  there was Emmy & Oscar winner, Jessica Lange, Emmy nominee, Sarah Paulson, Rose (who, until only recently had been an auto-mechanic), and me… all brought together out of the common concern and love for this woman.  I though, “wow, what a great group” — not just within those four wall (though that too) — but that cast and crew, in general. I’m so grateful to have had that time with them, and Rose, in particular.  

46 weeks ago, I posted this photo on Instagram, and captioned it, “THESE ARE MY PEEPS!”  Since then, we’ve lost TWO of them.  I know it’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all… I just feel like I’m doing an inordinate amount of loving and losing lately.  🙁



I regret to say our dear friend and co-star, Rose Siggins passed away this morning.

I feel like Elsa Mars said it best:  “The death of a beloved monster is always a sorrow, but never a surprise.  If oddly-formed organs or a random physical anomaly doesn’t claim them, then it is the sheer density of their blaze.  A cary’s life burns brighter than most.  It is bound to extinguish sooner.”

Please help support her family during this difficult time: https://gofundme.com/RoseSiggins

I am genuinely verklempt!  The forever fashion-forward Dora Landa surprised me with this box of silk sexiness, apparently “moved by my talent and inspired by my fearless style.”  I, dear madams, am inspired by the beauty before me, as well as your lovely generosity!

Of course it’s better to give than receive, but getting a HAND-KNIT & EMBROIDERED “Freak Show” scarf from my new friend & fan, Casey Welsby was quite nice!





You guys, this is Nicole Behanna.  She’s a fan… whose style I dug when we met the last time I was in Pittsburgh.  So I gave her a bunch of oversized t-shirts, just to see what she could do; she, in turn, made me this super-sexy top (among others)!  Check her out!!! @MorbidDelusionsDesigns
