Geo Creed Wyeth aka "Tha Novice" is America's 1st Queer Idol
Last Night at American TranStand, a benefit for the Sylvia Rivera Law Project, the youngest D Word-er did us all proud, now that he's a legal 21 and blossoming into the incredible performer we knew he could be. Geo Creed Wyeth ("tha novice") won the first ever Queer Idol contest from a crowded field of wannabes. And who judged him so? Why, none other than the creator of "the L Word" herself, Ilene Chaiken, as one of 3 celebrity judges, including the always suave Murray Hill and the always eloquent Emanuel Xavier.
Daniela Sea, Ilene Chaiken & Imani Henry
Of course, Ilene Chaiken was in attendence to boost her baby, The L Word, by showcasing next season's Trans storyline with the actress in the FTM role, Daniela Sea. Let's see... Our FTM character Dex was played by Geo Wyeth. Hmmmm... There's a nice symetry to Ilene crowning him last night... Don't ya' think? I certainly felt like a proud Mom. I didn't get to thank her, though, as I was kept away from Ilene and the other VIP's by virtue of my peasant-colored wrist band. The VIP's got blue bands and us commoners got orange. I wore that proudly, too. Don't worry - I'd never cause a rukus. After all, without Ilene and The L Word, where would The D Word & I be?

Upon meetin Ilene
Hi, I didn't know you did a parody of L word. I'll look for it. At any rate, I went to the Talent show and happened to meet some long term lovers who invited me to sit with them up in the royal section. Ilene and her posse were right there!!. I just happened to bring 2 headshots, a resume and some pieces of writing.(I'm an actor and used to live in New York. I was there for the very first WOW festival and read a section of a play I wrote. I kind of know Sarah Schulman. I do know Jeff Weiss. He lives in the same town as I do. Karen Malpede Theater for the New City. Lois Weaver. Enough name dropping) Ilene was very sweet. And with baited breath I rolled my photo, et al up and placed my peasant wrist band around it and told her it was a present from me. By the way I thought Dex was the best. And I'm as good an actor as Cherry Jones and I would act in one of your screenplays. I need to meet some creative lezies. I live in Bethlehem Pa, for christssake. No pun intended. Take care, Danielle Notaro dann18018@yahoo.com 610-866-9459 |
