On Monday, August 13 I was pleased to appear on the first live segment interview on the newly launched HuffPost Live, a new live news stream broadcasting 12 hours a day. The topic of discussion was what drag queens teach us about gender and it featured portraits from my Half-Drag . . . a different kind of beauty project and a discussion with myself live in the studio and 4 of the drag queens that I photographed via remote video chat. It mwas a lively and informative discussion and the feedback has been greaat. here is the clip.

Half-Drag From Italian Vogue to ABC News

This is what the term “gone viral” is all about. Every time my project appears on a blog, website or an online magazine I get contacted by others, or it just pops up on it’s own. In this case I was contacted by ABCnews.com as a result of Italian Vogue. In the past month my Half-Drag has appeared on over 50 sites all around the world (that I know of) with new ones popping up every day. This project is really resonating with people!

I’m very pleased to announce that my Half-Drag project has just been featured on the online version of Italian Vogue. Little did I know when I started this project that it would take on a life of it’s own. A special thanks to all of the great queens here in NYC that wanted to take part in this project. You guys/girls have been the best.

This is the latest in My Half-Drag project of the amazing gender bending Azraea. In the past 3 weeks this project has taken off like wild fire across the internet on blogs and websites in the U.S., Brazil,  Canada, France, England, Japan, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Austria, Lithuania, and Italy and Israel. As a result my website has been inundated with visitors actually peaking at 17 thousand visitors last week. I was even contacted by Italian Vogue and they will be running 20 of my images on their online edition next week. Very exciting!
