202: Queenie Black

In response to fan requests, Mark and Nicole were joined by artist and goth trendsetter Queenie Black for a fun show which truly takes you to the lighter side of the dark side. Queenie talked about growing up as a "Valley Girl" who transitioned from being a punk rocker to loving Adam and The Antz (with a Z) to loving the emerging Death Rock scene as it was known then. She gives her own definition of what is goth and what is gothic, talks about her impressive 190 pound weight loss and how she deals with having vitiligo. She has become an impressive artist, with her dolls fetching big numbers on ebay, offering all sorts of unique creepy fun things on her etsy site and she details the story of how she was courted by Hot Topic and how a corporate takeover led her to manufacture a significant number of dolls with now distribution.She also describes her online following which has accepted her as royalty from the chat rooms in the 90s to TikTok and beyond today...Discover the wonderful world of Queenie and Pocket Full of Posiez herelinktr.ee.com/queenie_pocketfullofposiezSee Queenie at the Haunted Souls Bizarre, May 7th at Heritage Square Museum. 1pm-6pm  3800 Homer St. Los Angeles Ca. 90033. it is a free event but you have to get tickets to reserve time.
