Brandishing a pink feather duster... this saucy dominatrix called Gigi Von Gigolo provides the first and only audience contact of the night, striding out into the crowd singing and teasing those lucky enough to be in easy reach of her tickling stick." ***** In Da StArS myspace layout GiGi In Wunderbar Director: GIADA D.

My Interests


Make your own Banner Here!
***** ***** "A BRIEF HISTORY OF KITSCH" *****My favourite words are: Wonder, Kitsch, Puddle and Soup. I am more interested in dreams and fantasy then in reality... I love nostalgia, collecting kitsch, daydreaming and reminiscing... I am a very good listener with a curious mind, and i love to hear people's stories. I am always intrigued by the common experiences and emotions we humans share... despite having completely different upbringings, lifestyles and stories. I like to make things happen and i like to entertain... Most of all...i like to "pARTy"!!! That really means to make ART, and to celebrate it with my friends and alter ego's at the kitschpalace. I am most interested in Creation, Inspiration, Motivation and Good Relations.************************************************** *Click on the cookie to read your fortune.
