JOY BEHAR asked the burning question - that most everyone else was wondering "What is so informational about TYRA BANKS SHOW?" I wondered the same about Dr. Phil.. KATHY GRIFFIN hits him the mark when she  describes him as "A Big Bag of Bullshit! " I was so bummed because Soap Net had sent me an email asking me if I wanted passes to go to The Emmys ...I did not read it until it was too late..I went last year as a guest of IGNACIO SERRICCHIO and met some of the folks from The Soap Net Channel....It would have been so much fun !

JP5 may be doing a tour of CA  with THE KO-KO's and WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES  in September or October. Did you see CYNDI LAUPER, MARGARET CHO on KATHY GRIFFIN'S "MY LIFE ON THE D LIST" when they went to a Pride Show in Australia..I laughed so hard when  KATHY said COCK FEATURE to OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN...And of course nearly broke a rib when she said that Australia's Pride Event was almost as big as the one that OPRAH and GAIL throw in OPRAH'S backyard... SUCK IT... MARTINA BUTLER is featured on BIZZ KIDS airing on PBS on episode #18 be sure to check it out....She is doing great with her career at such an early age...YVONNE and MIKE FRANKO busy getting their house ready to rent in San Francisco...

HELLIN KILLER went first to see THE SEX PISTOLS in Vegas then dashed off to NYC....Proving she is a real jet setter.......RHODES INGTERTON and his lovely Wife along with CHE and JOE who is the drummer with  THE TINGLERZ went to see THE SEX PISTOLS  in Vegas....Where is JOSIE COTTON????  JON GRIES was busy filming a Movie and was  unable to attend the Memorial Services for JOHN PHILLIP LAW..  But I was happy that IKE LUBINECKI from Reno and GREG who used to manage MAX'S FISH in NYC  were in LA and went with me...It was such a wonderful event.... Upon entering the house I saw PAULA whom I had met a couple years prior at a Birthday Party I threw. She had come with JOHN as his guest...Coincidentally-  PAULA lives in Victoria and she was so bummed that she missed seeing The WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES when the band played in Victoria- the week prior to JOHN'S  memorial.. ... She had not seen any advertisements or posters for the show.. Oddly enough she lives two blocks from Logan's Pub...I also met JOHN'S lovely Daughter DAWN LAW (who looks alot like Cameron Diaz) and her partner SABRINA..We met JOHN'S brother TOM LAW, along with various other family members and friends...One the most interesting people there was PRINCE STASH KLOSSOWSKI, son of French/ Polish Painter BALTHUS... STASH is good friends with KEITH RICHARDS and his niece LUCY is married to MARLON RICHARDS....STASH is also a pal of BEBE BUELL and LIV TYLER... STASH who was a charmer invited me to stay at his Italian Villa when I go to Italy.....IKE and STASH chatted a lot about art and his friendship with JOHN ....STASH is an Actor, Producer, Director, along with being the Percussion player for VINCE TAYLOR and THE PLAYBOYS... Most amazing at the memorial was JOHN PHILLIP LAW'S Housekeeper DELORES who seemed just like a member of the family... Her son GERRARD spoke of the special bond that DELORES  and JOHN shared.... JOHN and DELORES were more like Brother and Sister or Best Friends than Employee/ Employer........The Food and drinks were great and the weather that afternoon was divine..  We will miss you- JOHN PHILLIP LAW R.I.P........Later that night IKE, GREG and I drove around Griffith Park..We were hoping to catch  KIRSTIE ALLEY eating  a bucket of wings and legs from KFC .... We were marveling at how much  Griffith Park reminded us of the location shots from the old TV series "THE BIG VALLEY" starring BARBARA STANWYCK..By night's end we were using the catch phrase "Don't You Know Who I Am? I'm VICTORIA BARKLEY and I own Half of Stockton California."  IKEY was so happy to chat on the Cell Phone with CARL MACKI and  MERI ST. MARY.. GREG will also be happy to know that JIM WALLERSTEIN was happy to get his "Hello"..... MIKE BUTLER'S side band THE BUTLERS are playing all over San Francisco... Go check em out.... PUNK GLOBE recieved an email  from  DAVIDE who plays with NO - MAYBE- YES - a Band who come from  Italy. They  are planning a tour  to the USA in August...  Be on the look out for them. .
