"Atomic Blonde" Ambition

Atomic
Charlize Theron

Look on the on the red carpet in Berlin, Germany - It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Charlize Theron at the world premiere of her movie Atomic Blonde! Hooray!

Yes, according to the hype Charlize will be portraying the first female 007, you know as in Blonde, James Blonde, although she seems to have a slightly more violent streak given the trailer I have seen and the films R rating.

No matter, Charlize is one of the few women in film that audiences buy kicking ass. If I were going to see a movie of this ilk, AB would be it (and who knows I just might.) 

Charlize looks amazing as per usual, in her Dior outfit, no I am not a fashion queen it says Dior on her bra top, duh.

Moving on July 28th is the day the Atomic Blonde drops, that's so lit!

What Would Clea Cutthroat Do?

Your Mistress of the Night: Clea Cutthroat 

Have you ever found yourself sitting in your Berlin pad with nothing to do on a Saturday night and suddenly you wonder: What would Clea Cutthroat do?

Well on Saturday July 18th you know exactly what she will be doing and you can join her too!

That's right all you Gays, Lesbians & anyone else who wants to commune (the more the merrier ; ) - Berlin's very own Burlesque Biotch Clea Cutthroat is throwing a party for people who are you!

She will be your Mistress of Ceremonies for the WC Party at The Chelsea Bar in Berlin, Germany starting at 10pm Saturday July 18th. With two floors of sleaze baby!

Heaven is for everybody, Hell is for the guys only. Got it?!

So I asked Mistress Clea to give you ten good fucking reasons you should cum and taste the rainbow at the WC Party! Read on my minions...

1. HEAVENLY CREATURES! It’s true! We’re providing you the gateway to HEAVEN! However, heaven ain’t some fabled world of clouds, gods, & baby angels….we found our heaven, and let me tell ya, it’s delightful! Drag queens, bears, lipstick lesbians, leather daddies, boyz, bisexual & talented bartenders, Half naked hot boys, strippers, DJs, art installations…and liquor.

2. SIN IS IN! Yup! Ya know, as the saying goes…I got a sweet little fluffly unicorn sitting on one shoulder, and a dominatrix leather-clad-vixen sitting on the other. What can I say? I enjoy duality in everything. Plus, what’s the fun of being good, if you can’t get dirty sometimes?

3. HELL HERE! We will provide the enchantment, and we’ll even provide all the temptation for you in HELL! (Gentlemen only) It’s run by this real bitch of a Drag Queen called Satan…she’s a real pain in my ass, but throws one hell of a party.

4. 007! WE HAVE SECRETS! It’s true, we’re mysterious and we wanna seduce ya with awesomeness. I could tell you more, but then I would have to kill you …and we’d rather kiss you, or at least throw some glitter on ya!

5. NO FLAMINGO IS SAFE! It’s true…we got this weird thing with flamingos…just ask John Waters.

6. SHE BOP! Heaven & Hell got one thing in common: MUSIC! We will make sure that those apple bottoms don’t stop clapping all night long.

7. SOFT LIGHTING! Now, you all know what I’m talking about. We’ll make sure that your face it lit properly…and if you need any help keeping your contour on point, our performers will be there all night ready with brushes to beat your face with

8. LIQUID EYELINER! We have amazing performers! This Month we have Raven, The Dark Prince of Boylesque from Australia! He’s such an incredible performer and we’re honored to have him. I’ll also be performing…can’t let the night go by without a little chaos and punk rock realness from yours truly

9. IT’S FUN! (translation: we have lots AND LOTS of alcohol!)

10. WE LOVE YOU! Parties are great, and we know that there are tons to choose from, but we wanted to make a party that WE wanted to go to! So, we painted the biggest picture, and we want WC to take away your inhibitions, forget your stress, and blow your mind.

Clea Cutthroat's Top 5 Halloween Tricks

Tricks!
Photo: Daria A Marchik

No Halloween would be complete at Entertain Me without a visit from it's resident Burlesque Biotch, so without further adieu here she is all the way from Berlin, Germany with her Top 5 Tricks for the season, the girl who will tickle your pickle Ms. Clea Cutthroat...!!!

Halloween is when a ho can be a ho. A slut can be a slut.

Every nurse gets 8-inch stilettos, mice get lingerie, firemen come in daisy dukes, and a bloody tampon costume looks more like a cream dream.

I ain’t too proud.

I am one of those ladies who celebrate my inner slut, and wear my lip gloss, heavy eyeliner, 12-inch stilettos and black lace thong with pride...every damn day.

Throw on some animal ears, fake blood, and glitter and…boom!

I’m ready to trick, and to be treated.

However, since my daily work does involve rolls of duct tape, nudity, platform boots, blood and knives…Halloween is really something different (kind of). Well, at the very least, it’s a chance for me to give the performance artist a night off, strap on a fake chainsaw and let the dollar dolla’ bills rain down on me.

Michael asked me for my list of my “Top 5 Halloween Tricks”. Well, luckily Michael and I have bonded over a bloody margarita or five…so, as I’m perched here with my extra dirty martini, lounging in my favorite bloody couture and fluffy fur stripper heels, I’m feeling loose lipped just thinking about my favorite tricks over this ghoulish holiday season.

So many ghouls, too little time.

All Hail Queen Clea!

5. The first trick that comes to mind is “Candy Corn Nipple Guy”. This trick always asks me to suck on his nipples for hours! I swear, with him I always charge for overtime. He begs me to tell him that they taste like candy, but they taste like I’m sucking on a metal lollipop.

I charge per candy corn.

4. The next trick would have to be Candle Man. This trick is just freakin’ creeeeeeeepy. He’s obsessed with me dressing up like Elvira (THAT is not the weird part). The weird part, is that he gets dressed up like a pirate with a rhinestone eye patch, sits down on his vinyl brown couch, and just holds a plates of candles while I strip for him. When he’s really in a mood, he likes holding the plate of candles over me as they drip. Takes hours, and one time I feel asleep, but hey…pirates always have gold, and this fine boo-tay never leaves without anything short of a treasure chest.

3. My third favorite Halloween trick is Mr. Ding-Dong-Ditch. This freaky ass trick doesn’t even want me to come into his house! He pays me to ring his bell and run away. Every Halloween!

Easiest job I ever had.

2. Now let me tell ya about this next trick. Little Miss Redrum. She is insanely hot, but girl is craaaaaazy! She pays me to reenact The Shining with her. The twist here is that she lives is southern Texas, so since it’s always hot, she fills the pool with fake blood, so we hold hands and wear identical twins bikinis while chillin’ in the pool. I don’t get paid much, but she’s fine and she has a frozen margarita machine…good enough for me!

1. Last, but certainly not least, my favorite trick on All Hallows Eve would have to be Satan. Hands down! Dude is slick! Always rolls up in his silver Porsche, perfectly tailored burgundy suit, and a wickedly sexy smile. We drink dirty martinis together in the penthouse Jacuzzi. He asks me what I want, and I get it. Dude is nothing but class all the way! That other guy always makes me eat stale ass bread and drink table wine. I mean, every girl has the right to be glossy and flossy. Mmmmm, hold up…I gotta go move my Porsche.

Cocktails With Clea

Ever wonder what it would be like to have cocktails with Berlin-Burlesque-Biotch Clea Cutthroat?

Well thanks to the Internet and Burlesque Bitch online you can now get up close and viral with Clea as she mixes you one of her fabulous libations and let's you into the world according to Cutthroat.

Recently I broke out my riding crop and ordered Clea to give me five. Five good reasons that people should want to have cocktails with her.

She of course complied and is a smart Burlesque Biotch - Please take note of reason number five, not only does Clea know of what she speaks, it is a mantra you should all adhere to.

OK, Clea - I'm ready...give me five, now!

Give Me My Wine!

Clea Cutthroat:

1. It's free! Cheaper than any cocktail in the WORLD!!! So much fun, color, and laughs at a bargain price of $Free.00! 

2. In Drag Race language, I would describe it as: the "C" is for charisma, "L" is for libations, "E" is for extravaganza, and "A" is for adventure.

3. In times of uncertainty, I always ask myself, "What would Madonna Do?". I'm just sure she would read it! Or, at the very least, have a cute pool boy read it to her 

4. You get the latest news on showgirls, drag queens, circus freaks & geeks, as well as free cocktail recipes from around the world! Perfect for showing off at your next date or dinner party.

5. Because Michael Shinafelt said so! And after asking Madonna, my next question to myself is ALWAYS..."What would Michael do?"

The Horror: Clea Cutthroat

Bloody Clea: Say It 3 Times and See What
Happens

For Berlin performance artist and "Entertain Me" favorite, Clea Cutthroat everyday is some version of Halloween...is it any surprise it is her favorite Holiday?

Clea is currently on tour with the band Bonaparte, I decided to get my inner "Ghost Face" on and try to make her "Scream"...I don't think I did a very effective job of it, hey this was my first try at terrorizing someone cut me some slack!

Paging Ms. Cutthroat, you have a call....

MS: Hello, who is this?

CC: Michael, put down the margarita, it’s me…Clea! Naturally.

MS: Clea Cutthroat the performance artist who lives in Berlin?

CC: The one & only!

MS: What are you doing right now?

CC: I’m drinking margarita’s out of my Gatorade squeeze bottle as I sew hot pink sequins on spandex…one by one…a task that’s tedious enough to drive anyone insane (hence the margarita).

MS:Tell me your favorite scary movie.

CC: "The Shining"! Scared the shit out of my when I was 9…and still gives me the creeps every time blood gushes down the hallway after me, or I run into strange twin children as I’m grocery shopping.

MS: Mine is the original “Halloween”.

CC: Can’t go wrong with some Jamie Lee Curtis! Wasn’t there one with Busta Rhymes?

MS: Oh, that's a good one.

CC: I knew you would like the Busta version as well 

MS: What are you going to be this Halloween?

Covered In Blood Again? With Bonaparte

CC: I’m actually performing in Graz, Austria this Halloween as its right in the middle of my tour with Bonaparte. So, in that case, I’ll be dead, a voodoo queen, a showgirl, a dominatrix, an aerobics instructor….well, you could say that everyday is a bit like Halloween 

BUT , if I get a chance to go to a proper Halloween party after the show…I’m going as the Queen herself…Elvira!

…and you, Michael? What’s up your sleeve this year? 

MS: Me? I'm not telling you anything.

CC: Hmph. I’ll get it out of you after your third margarita 

MS: Everyday is pretty much like Halloween for you, isn't it?

CC: Yes. I am damn lucky! BUT the only down side would be that living in Europe you don’t get the same excitement for Halloween. It’s slowly catching on…but, nothing as compared to NYC. One year I’ll have to make it back to The States for some proper celebrations.

MS: Do you take your make-up off at night or sleep in it?

CC: I could sleep in it, but then I would need a medicine cabinet full of Clearasil, and I could go as a lump of acne for Halloween! Lol! No, no…I take it all off! 

MS: Answer this next question or Bonaparte, every single one of them dies.

CC: Maybe it’s the margarita in my squeeze bottle, but this doesn’t make any sense…NEXT QUESTION!

MS: How much wood could a woodchuck, chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

CC: I plead the 5th.

MS: My patience is being tried Ms. Cutthroat.

CC: How do you think I feel after the woodchuck question?

MS: Oh, all right, how about this one? If you really did Cutthroat's how many throat's would you cut?

CC: Only as many as it would take till I could make a new ball gown 

MS: Wrong answer, Happy Halloween Clea!

10 Random Thoughts: Clea Cutthroat

Once upon a time there was a little grrrrrrrrrl named Mollie Black who grew up in that sprawling, and I do mean sprawling, suburb of Los Angeles, CA known as, the valley.

Mollie was drawn, much like Jessica Rabbit, to performing, however this is not your typical LA raised Movie Star Tale....Mollie was a goth grrrrrrrrrl....so what is a little goth chica who grew up in sunny LA to do?

Flee to Berlin, Germany, and ebmrace her darkside, of course, here to address 10 Random Thoughts from yours truly is Berlin's Queen Of The Underground Scene: Ms. Clea Cutthroat ...!


CABARET
The word alone makes my mind immediately spin to Sally Bowles’s infamous emerald green finger nails. It also makes me think to all of the bad cabaret shows that I did in New York. Oh, I have some really goooooooood friends for coming to support me at whatever random, weird restaurant with the strange, no budget cabaret show I was dancing in. I guess that is why God created the 2 drink minimum. Of course, “cabaret” also makes me think to Berlin…but, I don’t go to cabarets here. Is that wrong? If so, the Pope I hear is still in Germany, so maybe he can absolve me of my sins ;)
　
MISTRESS OF THE DARK
“That gal in the dress that always says ‘yes’”,

Sometimes I fall a bit behind on TV series, being over here in Berlin, but I just recently found “The Search for the Next Elvira” while I was on my last tour. I must admit I did feel a bit ashamed that I didn’t know of it before, but I tossed that guilt into the pile of dead virgins lying at Elvira’s feet, and devoured every episode in about one night. No joke. I was totally addicted from the first second. Needless to say, the next night, my wigs were all getting ratted, sprayed and I was Elivra-fied. I think it is completely fair to say that next to Madonna, Elvira is one of my favorite female Icons.”My name’s Elvira, but you can call me ‘tonight’”.ELVIRA!!!! Love her! But, does anyone not love her? Who better to idolize when you’re a little Goth girl growing up in the San Fernando Valley?
<><><><><><><><><><>

BLOOD 
That word makes me happy. Yes, happy. But, it has a total positive connotation to me. When you say blood, I immediately think: life, warm, show, performance, glitter, audience, fake blood with strawberry taste….and I did it waaaaaaaaaaaaay before Lady Gaga. Love her, but the blood thang...that’s mine J.

I have no love for “emo blood”. I have absolutely no interest in blood symbolism that is overly ripe with wallowing-self-pity-emo-whining filled-self hatred- nonsense.

I use fake blood on stage, some performers use real blood. I choose fake blood because that is within my comfort zone. For whatever innate, organic reason, blood symbolizes power, overcoming obstacles, and release to me. I hate this “emo” imagery I see. (i.e. suicide razor blades, bloody suicide wounds, “misery loves company” imagery etc.) It’s bullshit and it’s counterproductive. Yes, there is no one that goes thru this life without a struggle, and yes, art is allowed to express anything it wants too…but, anything that is coming out of me, even though I use punk, fetish, contemporary, horror, or pop imagery, does not champion weakness or self pity.

Ok…whew! That was an unexpected rant, off to the next word!

HALLOWEEN
HALLOWEEN! MY FAVORITE HOLIDAY! The Halloween craze has definitely picked up here in Berlin, over the last 5 years that I’ve been here- Thank God!

But I have no idea what to wear this year! AAAAHHHH!!!! I’m throwing a Halloween party this year, and the drag queen that I’m hosting the night with is going as a giant tampon…what goes with a tampon? A maxi pad?!?! No, no no….Hmmm, maybe I could go as a pregnant Beyonce?

MADONNA
Bring the Queen roses people! ROSES! Why would anyone ever think to bring her hydrangeas? I mean, its MADONNA…I wouldn’t bring her chrysanthemums, or daisies; you bring the woman roses or OFF WITH YOUR HEAD! Well, at least he didn’t give her sunflowers. Hell, maybe the point here is please don’t ever give ME sunflowers ;)

What can I really say about Madonna…First record that I ever owned, first tape I ever owned, (yes, I know I am dating myself here) and my ultimate female idol. I love her, she’s untouchable, and thank GOD she is so bitchy in all the right ways. She’s the Queen people, always and forever.
　
BERLIN
Home! Berlin is fate for me. I had never thought of leaving NYC, or the States for that matter…was all pure chance that I came to Berlin, and when I moved here, it was like golden dominos of fate just fell into place. Finally, I was in the right place, at the right time. I still love NYC, I still love the States, but Berlin is absolutely where I am meant to be at the moment.

But, if there is one thing I’ve learned…never say never…so, I don’t know if I’ll be in Berlin or Bali in 10 years, but I’m enjoying soaking in all the creativity that this city has to offer.
I’ll also be soaking in fake tanning bed rays soon! Its winter now and the days grow shorter by the second. That, I will never like, but if you keep busy enough it gets easier. Or, maybe in ten years I’ll have a winter house in Bali that I can escape too.

LADY GAGA
The first Lady of Media. She is a bold and dynamic artist. She has an amazing creative team around her and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t interested in watching her development over the next years, and there are not so many current pop artist that peak my interest in that way. She is clearly inspired by the underground scene and by artists before her…but, at the end of the day, aren’t we all? But, even if she is the First Lady of Pop, Madonna will always be my Queen.

More important than whatever fashion “Do” or “Don’t” Gaga is wearing at the moment, more than anything else she does, I have infinite respect for what she has done for the LBGT community. I applaud her for using her celebrity for championing the community, and bringing issues of tolerance, bullying, same sex marriage, “don’t ask don’t tell”, to the forefront of mainstream media. Hell, she’s meeting with Obama. So, even if you don’t like her current hair color, you have to give her due respect. She’s active, she’s vocal, she’s loud, and I do believe that she is sincerely passionate and invested in the fight.

NAPKINS
I have to be honest; the only thing that comes to my head is a runny nose. So, I decided to Google the napkin and see if could learn some interesting fun facts to share.

I learned that napkins can be dated back to the Spartans, who used small pieces of dough to wipe their hands clean while eating. Interesting, huh? So, we went from dough, to a whole rainbow spectrum of paper napkin sizes, colors, and shapes.

Huh. Yeah, I could share more, but I lost interest, and I fear that you’re losing interest….so let’s keep it going ladies, shall we?
　

JUSTIN BIEBER
From napkins, to Justin Bieber. Well, I don’t think that the Spartans used small pieces of Justin Bieber to clean their hands…but they sure could’ve taken a cue from his manicured eyebrows. I mean, how old is he? 16? And his eyebrows are puuuurfekt. Somehow that kind of freaks me out. My second revelation about him is that he has a women’s perfume called Someday. Ick.

It all just makes me roll my eyes, gag up my vanilla latte, and toss up my hands in frustration. WHY!?! But then…I have a clear flash back. A memory that I’ve tried to delete, that I’ve tried to hide…but let’s be honest…when I was 14, I had NKOTB bed sheets. Yes, sheets. So, really…Go Justin! Cuz, if I was 14 now, I would still have Madonna posters all over my wall, and I would still be praying every night to somehow get cleavage like Elvira…and I would be rocking the Bieber manicured eyebrow.
　
GUTTER
That’s easy: punk, and, (drum roll please) BOWLING! I can talk a great game, but I am absolutely the gutter-ball-bowling-princess. Well, and if we take the word “gutter” to bowling, I gotta be sure to mention one of my favorite movies: The Big Lebowski!

And you know, I think bowling is just a nice way to wrap this all up. So, let’s all rock our Elvira wig, grab our beer with a dainty cocktail napkin, lace up our bowling shoes while Madonna’s “Holiday” is blasting over the sound system, and let’s throw some gutter balls right down that shiny lane. But, ya better beware- losing team gets sprayed down with Beiber’s Someday Eau deParfum.


Have a bloody good time and keep up with Clea at:
