TNG TV: 7 Minutes in Heaven w/ Leslie Hall

This post was submitted by Zack Rosen

Expository fact number one: Leslie Hall is an Ames, Iowa woman whose glittery stage persona is the frontwoman for “lady rap” outfit Leslie and the LYs. She owns and operates a mobile museum of tacky gem sweaters. She sells in t-shirts in plus sizes, is fiercely proud of the midwest and has won a rabid fan base for challenging perceptions of what a pop star can be.

Expository fact number two: Leslie Hall makes her own line of spandex one-pieces that rival American Apparel in fit, quality and the fact that they don’t subsidize Dov Charney’s molestation habits. That is what I am wearing in the above interview.

Expository fact number three: Leslie Hall, as she appears above, is a character. When Leslie Hall takes off he makeup and her costumes there is a sweet, smart and deceptively low-key woman underneath. Which leads to

Expository fact number four: I believe that Leslie Hall, no matter how goofy and put-on she tries to be, is making several important points about originality, individualism and contemporary femininity. So you’re hysterical, Leslie, but don’t think that’s the only reason we love you.
