V to the 10th Video: Calpernia & Leslie Preparing to Perform in New Orleans Vagina Monologues
Apr 19th
So, after a week of trying to get this video to upload to YouTube (it kept timing out), it has finally made it up! This is some footage of Leslie and me settling into our hotel room, running around town and rehearsing for our monologue. Then I added in some clips from a few other YouTube people who had uploaded video from that night, and some photos.
To my great and lasting heartbreak, I somehow lost my digital camera as I was returning to Los Angeles from New Orleans. On it were many photos of me with the various women in the play, including Jane Fonda, Rosario Dawson, Doris Roberts, Didi Conn, Kristina Krepela, Amber Tamblyn, Ali Larter and of course Eve Ensler. All of the photos are irreplaceable, so this loss will haunt me for some time to come. But thankfully, the most important part was that I got to experience the event, and I will never lose the memories.
Catholic Website on The Vagina Monologues: Lesbian Quizzes 6-Year Old on Her Private Parts
Apr 15th
The full list of stars who participated in the New Orleans “celebration” included, Oprah Winfrey, Faith Hill, Jessica Alba, Sally Field, Ali Larter, Salma Hayek, Jennifer Hudson, Jane Fonda, Glenn Close, Rosario Dawson, Julia Stiles, Kerry Washington, Calpernia Addams, and musicians Common, Eve, and Charmaine Neville
Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans for Truth and father of five children, said it is astonishing that Ensler and her vulgar play are being celebrated given TVM’s past and current promotion of adult predatory behavior against minors: “Imagine if an adult homosexual man were to quiz a six-year-old boy about his penis—or a straight man were to ask a little girl silly questions about her private parts – for use in a play! Would such men be praised by the media and famous personalities?”
Stop the Monologues Project Director Donna Miller, the mother of a teenage girl, said, “I find it horrifying that an author would sexualize a six-year-old girl—particularly when that same author has a record of writing favorably about adult/child sex, at least for lesbians.”

This, from the Catholic Church:
- whose outright active blockage of sex and contraceptive education in Africa could be linked to the devastating spread of HIV there.
- who have historically been responsible for such loving, godly endeavors as The Crusades and The Inquisition (Wikipedia) (YouTube).
- whose own priesthood is responsible for one of the largest pedophilia and sexual abuse scandals in modern history
Tsk tsk.
