nbs: Gigi! You were on the site so so long ago, and now you're back! What's been happening? How're things?
gg: Things are amazing! So busy with a new life and new things. I'm learning to tattoo and I LOVE it! Just finished a painting for the Golden girls gone wild show in miami that Lenora Claire is running at WEAM, and I'm single now-which is new.

nbs: And tattooing? I hear you're doing a few Normal Bob Smith works with your inking too?
gg: ha! yes!! - I'm tattooing the Gigi dress-up doll AND your Satan on a cross on my friend's arm-he's getting his whole arm done by me- sooo stoked!

nbs: In 2005 you and I worked on a Gigi dressup game! I would love to go back in there and add more outfits, and show off how far I think my talent has come since then. Are we going to take that to the next level?
gg: yes please! I always loved your work and would love to see how you could make the dress up doll better. which I think will be challenge-because it's already pretty fucking awesome! I have way more ink now-so the Gigi doll needs to be brought up to par-

nbs: I'm looking forward to that.
So one of the last times we hung out you took me to the Amanda Lepore birthday party in Chicago. I would love to know more about the scene you're involved in there in Chicago and elsewhere.
gg: It's funny because I'm such a hermit these days-and I'm part of different "scenes" by default- mostly because people just know me or my art.

nbs: Your paintings are very striking. I'll be posting them on your page too.
gg: Just Did a Halloween artshow with Clive barker, but he didn't show up so that kinda sucked- but my painting was hung up right next to his work.

nbs: Very cool. So it has been a while. You've been a Super Chic on the site years ago. Have you noticed changes that've occurred here with the site's life since then?
gg: it's WAY more posh! I esp. love the little Satan and Jesus cartoon beating each other up! and the Super Chic's page is super yummy! ha

nbs: I have to agree
gg: So many wonderful flavors. you know I still have my original Jesus magents you gave years ago on my fridge! and everyone loves them and can't help dressing up the old boy!

nbs: Well, I you're going to have more soon. I do appreciate you taking them around to stores for me to find stores who're interested.
Gigi, let me conclude this by saying you look better than ever, and I'm delighted to have you back as a Super Chic. I'm flattered to no end.
gg: Awww - Thank you sweetie-I'm thrilled to be back up as a Super Chic!
