The Lady Bunny

The Lady Bunny (real name: Jon Ingle) is an American drag queen originally from Chattanooga, Tennessee, who has lived in New York since the 1980's. She is the founder and emcee of the annual Wigstock event and is well-known as a nightclub DJ, promoter and celebrity. She has also released disco singles - "Shame, Shame, Shame!" & "The Pussycat Song" She has appeared in films such as "Wigstock The Movie", "Peoria Babylon", and "To Wong Foo Thanks For Everything Julie Newmar"

She began her career alongside Larry Tee and RuPaul as a fixture on the Atlanta, Georgia gay scene. She appeared in a variety of low budget films with them.

Her blog on her web site, ladybunny.net, is a sharp, politically aware and at times loopy take on current affairs and cultural issues. Her unique style of drag performance usually invoves her lipsynching to a compilation of karaoke versions of popular songs over which she has recorder her own vocals singing parodies of the original lyrics. The new lyrics are usually sexually explicit, or revolve around food, or both. (For instance, her parody of the Gwen Stefani song Hollaback Girl has the lyric "I shit a banana/a banana in my ass!")

She has recently released her first DVD, Rated X for X-tra Retarded.
