Amanda Lepore in NYC

Spicy — Fri, 22 May 2009 04:35:32 +0000

Amanda Lepore hangs out at Novita Restaurant in New York City.

Whenever I post pics of Amanda I get emails asking who she is. So here it is, in a nutshell.

Wikipedia: Amanda Lepore (born Armand Lepore) is an American transsexual icon who has received attention for her modeling, fashion, partying, and business skills. She has been the advertising face for Heatherette, M.A.C. (cosmetics), Mego Jeans, Swatch, CAMP Cosmetics and more. Fashion design company Heatherette has used Lepore’s image on much of their clothing and has chosen her several times to model their brand during Fashion Week. Lepore is also noted as a regular subject in much of David LaChapelle’s work. She participated in his Artists and Prostitutes 1985-2005 exhibit in New York where she “lived” in a voyeuristic life-sized set. She is represented by “Classic Entertainment Group (Manhattan, NY). Lepore resides in New York City and works as a nightlife hostess at many of the city’s popular parties and clubs.

More human than a human!

Armani Commercial with Ryan Phillipe and Amanda Lepore

Spicy — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 20:22:51 +0000

I love this futuristic, post apocalyptic like commercial for Armani jeans.

Shot by my favorite photographer, David LaChapelle, it’s totally bizarre, very colorful and a little creepy. This was his first video effort.

It was only recently released from the Armani archives and stars a then unknown (and naked!) Ryan Philllipe and New York’s world famous transsexual, Amanda Lepore. LaChapelle discovered Phillipe in a New York diner.

Check it out, it’s bad ass.

Thanks David!

Amanda Lepore and ‘Colorful’ Friends

Spicy — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 18:57:16 +0000

Amanda Lepore is just so much fun to gawk at…usually her friends are too.

For those who don’t know, Amanda is the best known transsexual in New York. Last week she attended the birthday party of ‘Phillipe Blond’ whom I think is a drag queen because I don’t see any funbags on his chest. He sort of looks like Nicolette Sheridan, but better! And more feminine…heh.

Other people who attended the party are ‘Ladyfag’ (left) and ‘Rainblo’ (right).

Heatherette Show – New York Fashion Week

Spicy — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 19:11:00 +0000

I always love seeing the pictures from the Heatherette shows.

Never a dull moment!

Designers Richie Rich and Travor Rains always have a wild show in store. Their shows are always colorful, pure eye candy.

Yes, that’s Kimora..

As always Amanda Lepore was the star, this time playing Glenda the good witch during the ‘Wizard of Oz’ theme of the show. Lydia Hearst was Dorothy, (I want that bag!), the Scarecrow (or is that the Tin Man or both?) looked like Buck Rogers‘ slave boy…equipped with easy access in the rear.

Heatherette designer, Richie Rich, had a ‘Sparkle’ (blow?) party at Lotus in New York.

With this group of people, there is never a dull moment! Amanda Lepore and ‘June’ attended.

I don’t know a lot about June, but I am totally fascinated with Amanda. I’d love to interview her someday. Oh the stories she could tell!
