I recently reached out to Mississipi drag queen Glitterfck to be on an episode of Transformations. Of course, we don’t have the budget to fly anyone in, we’re a pretty bare-bones operation, so I told him “if you’re ever in the area….” Well, lo and behold, that determined little queen has started a gofundme page to get a plane ticket to Hollywood! HA! I love it! Check it out after the jump!
Writes Lyndon:
Here recently I got offered the opportunity to travel to Hollywood and be on a makeup Web Series, TRANSFORMATIONS, with James St. James. With life dealing me the cards I’ve been dealt, as much as I would love too, I currently do not have the funds to take this amazing journey. Being on this Web series could open so many doors for my future and would be one of my greatest opportunities for getting my name and art branded. I would love to be able to come up with the expenses for this trip in the near future but doing it on my own I fear may take too long and I may miss my shot. I don’t usually ask for help or anything but I truly believe this would make me happy and be such a great opportunity for me and my art to grow. If you’d like to help out you have no idea how grateful I would be.. if you can’t.. I’m still thankful for you. Hopefully, one day soon I’ll be hearing “Welcome to my face” and you’ll be seeing my art be constructed on one of my biggest role models face!”
I don’t know how many doors it opens, lol, but it’s a very sweet Even sweeter was the email he sent to us:
“Wow! What an amazing opportunity! Who would have thought that little old me from southern Mississippi would be offered the chance to work with one of my favorite people ever doing something I enjoy so much? I would absolutely love to be a part of your web series TRANSFORMATIONS and showcase my artistry to you, James and my fellow WOW presents followers. Currently, as much as I’d love the experience, I do no have the financial means to take a trip to Los Angeles and will not be visiting anytime in the near future.
Thank you so much for your consideration,
Lyndon Adam (Glitterfck)
p.s. On a less businessy sounding note,
It has been my goal of creativity to get on transformations since the series started last year. James St James is actually the reason I began playing in makeup 5yrs ago when I ran from my religious family beliefs and began dating my Boyfriend who introduced me to DISCO BLOODBATH and PARTY MONSTER as well as the rest of the fabulous world I had been hidden from all my childhood life. I was born and raised southern Pentecostal so I never knew anything about club scenes or the fabulous life growing up….. hell the only designer I could have named was Tommy Hilfiger and that’s the real blasphemy! Any how, I squealed when I received this email from you and have literally thought all week of ways I could finagle my finances to support this experience on my life’s art adventure. Being a gender neutral, gender bending lady dude Artist working in a western steakhouse off tips makes the struggle all so real! If I ever get the finances or the opportunity for the finances to take that journey in the near future, believe me this little glitterfcking bird is going to fly! So much love sent y’alls way and I hope your faces are filled with smiles! Please tell James I said Hello and thank you as well!!!!!!!!! XoXoX Lyndon Glitterfck
