Robbie Williams & Alexis Arquette

MUSIC Robbie Williams is a mean drag queen in his video “She’s Madonna.” Written by the Pet Shop Boys, the song is incredibly catchy, has a hypnotic, pop beat, and I'll probably burn out on it soon – but not yet. Williams straddles both sides of the fence: interviewed while wearing a dress and alternately singing in a sparkly, bright white suit. The dude is quite comfortable singing to men in dresses and those who are in transition. One of those happens to be Alexis Arquette who has a documentary regarding plans for gender reassignment surgery, titled Alexis Arquette: She’s My Brother, which recently premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. The film chronicles her coming to terms with family concerns and the gay and transgender communities. It’s an A&E production, so it mostly likely will air on that network, but I’m hoping it will open in theaters and other film fests. I’m totally supportive of Alexis and wish her well.

GLADD has guidelines for journalists and those uninformed when speaking about people going through gender reassignment. There is a lot of offensive and insensitive stuff being written and said these days. Maybe this will help keep everyone on the same page.
