Bled Threads: Constance Sherman

Gaga Stigmata: When I approached you for Bled Threads, people were rushing up to get their photos taken with you – what does everyone recognize you from?

Constance Sherman: People recognize me from Bar Marmont. I host a night there every Thursday where I dress up and was the host from 1995 to 2002. Plus various other
nightclubs and events too numerous to mention!


GS: What are you wearing on a typical day?

CS: On a typical day I’m in jeans and a tee shirt.

GS: Define “drag.”

CS: Drag to me is looking like you truly desire to and are not afraid to do so!


GS: I love that when you drag, you don’t wear wigs. What’s behind this decision?
CS: I lost all my hair at seven years old due to a nervous condition called alopecia. When I started doing drag at around 24 I decided to toss the wig look because I was getting A LOT more attention bald...back to normal more or less!

GS: Who are your biggest fashion influences?

CS: My fashion influences are many from early glam rock to Marlene
Deitrich and Greta Garbo!


GS: Will you tell us about modeling for Robert Mapplethorpe?

CS: To get me to talk about Robert Mapplethorpe you’re going to have to come up with some cash!!


GS: How does it feel to be objectified?

CS: To me being objectified is my way of life and it’s just fine thank you!
