oh for sure, it's just sad that in this day and age that people are so bothered just by the fact that someone is a drag queen, without knowing anything else at all about them. but hey, i guess that just makes your job easier if your intent is to shock

yeah my intent wasn't to start a debate, i just think it's amusing that sharon and scott actually have pretty similar taste in humor in that department.

anyway i'm going to stop trying to change scott's mind on this cause clearly that's not going to happen. i'll just let his compulsive need to comment endlessly on this (even in unrelated threads!) speak for itself. what's important is the show is probably the most fun thing on tv and sharon is one of the clear standouts on it. she really is doing pittsburgh proud.

I think it's equally amusing that you would support anyone that has the same taste of humor as I do.

Bump. Sharon won again. She looked perfect and showed how intelligent she is.

I wonder with all her new-found fame and sucess, if Sharon's going to stay around Pittsburgh. She could very well up and move to New York or Chicago or something. She even said on the show that she's never been asked to play Pittsburgh Pride and she doesn't seem to do local shows.

Gosh, I hope she doesn't forget where she came from

She wears Pittsburgh as a badge of honor. It is an integral part of her character. I really don't think she's going anywhere. Besides, who cares if you're not playing Pittsburgh pride when you're being flown to gigs all over the country?

she definitely does local shows as well. i think she doesn't get asked to play pgh pride because she's pretty controversial and not very family friendly (even for a drag queen!).

i think i might go watch the finale at the blue moon if she's in it.

Just found her "412/724 *****" music video on Youtube. Loved her tribute to Pittsburgh.
