I’D MARRY SARAH PALIN BUT I’M NOT A LESBIAN!
Category: News and Politics
Today is National Coming Out Day so I have a little secret for you:
I'M A FUCKING FAGGOT!
And I'm proud of it. I barely ever talk politics but I'm putting down my Louis Vuitton for a moment to be real with you.
There are ballot initiatives all across the country trying to deny equal rights to gays and lesbians. Not special rights - equal rights. No one is asking for an "I suck cock" tax break. All gay marriage initiatives do is provide the same rights and protections to gay couples as straight couples. Denying anyone rights, such as being able to visit your loved one in the hospital, is inhumane. If these laws were to ban mixed-race couples or inter-faith marriage or any of the other differences that make people unique, would it have such strong support?
There is strong support to give gays equal rights and its coming from people of all sexualities. Everyone should come together for tolerance. Newly married hot hetero Pete Wentz and all of Fall Out Boy donated money to the No on Prop 8 fight in California. The sexiest straight man on the planet - Brad Pitt - gave money. They know its not about protecting rights for their marriages but extending the rights they already enjoy to the deserving and loving gay couples that don't have the same protection. Pete Wentz could be sitting at home with his pregnant wife and not care about the rights of gays. He's not gay so it doesn't affect him. Brad Pitt could be chasing after his 16 children and not bothering to fight for someone else's happiness. But they, and many others both famous and not, are fighting for the rights of gays even though they, as married straight people, already have the rights gays are fighting to receive.
A lot of the support is based around faith. Well, like it or not, we're not a Christian nation. If we allow one religion's view to legislate the rights of all our citizens, where does it stop? If gays can't get married because "God made Adam and Eve", then why doesn't the government revoke citizenship status for anyone not Christian? If we're going to legislate Christianity, lets burn the Natural History Museum down for having skeletons of dinosaurs. Hell, burning is fun, lets go back to burning witches since the Bible says you can't suffer a witch to live. Maybe Congress can set up some stakes and we can burn all the Wiccans. That's equality!
That is not how this country works. There is a video by the Yes on Prop 8 camp that gets up in arms that San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom says gay marriage is going to "happen whether you like it or not." And you know what? That is true. Just like women got voting rights and black people finally got the right to sit wherever they want on the bus. Equality will happen whether bigots want it to or not and that is a BEAUTIFUL thing. As these old assholes who were raised in a culture were hating gays was acceptable finally do the world a favor and drop fucking dead, their children who grew up watching Wil and Grace will take over and equality WILL happen. But we have to fight for it because that day could be 30 years from now but with our voices raised, it could be tomorrow.
Connecticut just became the 3rd state in the nation to make gay marriage a reality for the many loving couples that live there. Again, the bigots who are behind the Yes on Prop 8 campaign posted this very deceptive video where a little girl comes home from school and happily tells her mother she learned in school today that two princes can get married and when she grows up she can marry a princess if she wants. Really cute, right? What an amazing message for tolerance and equity. But no, promoting tolerance and acceptance of everyone's lifestyles in schools is something to be feared and avoided! I personally don't think schools should teach anything about marriage - gay or straight - because that is a family matter. But schools should absolutely promote tolerance and acceptance of all. Or should we not learn about anyone who is different from us? Should we stop teaching white school children about Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks? Should only the deaf, dumb, and blind be able to learn about Helen Keller? Hell, if you have a vag then you get to skip out on most of American History because you don't need to know about our Founding Fathers. You should just be barefoot, pregnant in the kitchen making me a fucking sandwich. And lets not talk about that Ghandi dude. He's not the same as me so obviously nothing he said can have any value on my life!
This "defense of marriage" crap is largely based on a bunch of bullshit. A few weeks ago at a Senate hearing on equal family benefits for gay and lesbian federal workers, Howard Weizmann referenced the plot of "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry" as evidence the program would be scammed. Since that movie was about two STRAIGHT guys scamming the system, don't you think it would prove heterosexuals are more likely to commit fraud? Oh wait, its not proving anything because its A FUCKING MOVIE! What's next, dictating our education policy based on Ferris Buller's Day Off? How about giving a copy of Tropic Thunder to our troops in Iraq and telling them to copy that?
Oh and speaking of gays in the military, fuck your Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Being gay shouldn't be some secret shame. We allow people of every color and creed in our nation's armed forces. Why should who you fuck make any difference? The government, based on Don't Ask Don't Tell fired Arabic and Farsi translators in the middle of a war with groups that primarily speak those languages. Even though we are desperately in need of competent translators to help us figure out terrorists threats, what hole you stick your dick in or if you're getting dicked at all is more important to the government than national security. This report goes back to 1998 so is it so outrageous to think that maybe if we had a competent translator working on the pre-9/11 chatter that tragedy could have been avoided? Is what goes on in someone's bedroom so important that we'd put the nation at risk because of it?
Denying gays their rights is NOT defending marriage. Gays are not mounting a crusade to make sure heteros can't get married. We are simply asking for the same LEGAL rights they receive. That is the issue at hand. Marriage is not just a union between you, your spouse, and God. The government grants you a whole slew of rights to go along with it and it is simply wrong to deny these rights to a group of people for any reason. And civil unions are NOT enough. Separate but equal did not work for racial issues and it will not work for issues based on sexuality. I'm sure the water at the "colored's only" fountain was just fine but I'm sure that it was a bitter drink for everyone who had to swallow it knowing that they weren't "good enough" to drink from the same fountains as their fellow white citizens. Intolerance and bigotry is intolerance and bigotry no matter how you label it. A consolation prize is not good enough. This is about erasing intolerance from our law books. There is no legal reason why gay people should not have the same exact rights as everyone else. None.
Intolerance should be legislated against. Just like voting rights have been granted to all citizens instead of just white landed males. Just like people who are killed based on their skin color are charged with a hate crime. I have a tattoo of a hate crime victim - Matthew Shepard - on my shoulder. He was murdered because he was gay - no other reason - and it is still not considered a hate crime because gays are not currently protected by hate crime legislation. How on earth the murder of Matthew Shepard, which was clearly motivated solely based on his sexuality, is not a hate crime is beyond me. I memorialized him in a tattoo and I have him to 'watch my back'; a sad reminder that until this nation is more tolerant that I have to watch myself because I'm gay and some hateful bigot could hurt me too.
Yeah, I'm fucking fabulous. I have great cars, amazing clothes, wonderful fans, and a great life. But I still can't marry my boyfriend and get the same protection the poorest redneck in a trailer park has. No amount of money can buy me that right. No amount of fame can protect me from a bigot trying to hurt me just because I like men. For all I have, for as lucky as I am, myself and thousands of other gay men and women just like me are lacking the same basic rights guaranteed to the straight world.
So PLEASE, if there is a gay marriage initiative on the ballot in your state, please vote for EQUAL rights and vote to give gays the SAME rights as everyone else! Vote NO on Prop 8 in California! Vote NO on Prop 102 in Arizona! Anywhere you are, vote to give gays and lesbians the same rights as everyone else!

Starstruck (feat. Danger Radio)
Tell me who's watching me..
Every day there's camera's flashin' I hide behind dark sunglasses Everyone wants to take a shot Cuz nobody has what I got Steppin out on the scene Living life in a magazine A million eyes I can't avoid In limousines I'm paranoid
(Chorus:) I always feel like somebody's watchin' me And I have no privacy I always feel like somebody's watchin' me Tell me is it just a dream?
The star in my eye is dying Flashbulbs always blinding My lipgloss is shining But that look is lying Fake smiles, let's pretend Everyone acts like they're my friend Build up, knock down, that's the trend I'm not buying it That's why..
(Chorus:) I always feel like somebody's watchin' me And I have no privacy I always feel like somebody's watchin' me Who's playin' tricks on me? I always feel like somebody's watchin' me Tell me is it just a dream?
Step back! Stop an stare There's people everywhere.. I don't care Stop an stare
(Chorus repeat until end)

POPSICLE RECORDS & MY FUTURE...!!!!
Current mood: dripping
I'm making my dreams happen and I have some huge news to tell you all!!! I NOW HAVE MY VERY OWN RECORD LABEL!
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? It means that no one is gonna fucking control me. I get to do what I WANT and what I KNOW is best for my OWN career. Sorry, I'm not some manufactured fake band who doesn't know who they are so they rely on guys in suits to tell them what to say and how to look. I don't think I could live with myself every day, waking up knowing I was a fake bitch. I've always wanted something like this and I'm so thankful that I've been given this opportunity! I've teamed up with Independent Label Group/Warner Music to do things the right way. They believed in what my vision was and now I'm making it happen! I get to put out my OWN music and have all the control. Some old executive can't pick my album cover for me and tell me what I should sound like. I've held out on signing anything for a LONG time because I never wanted to sell my soul. I honestly didn't even know what KIND of music I wanted to continue to make. I've only put out an EP which was recorded a long time ago and since then.. I've gone through SO much. Fell in love and out of love with so many different kinds of MUSIC. I don't even want to place myself in a box and say, "Jeffree Star will sound like ______" because my album is going to be all over the place. MY NEW SOUND is much more advanced & where I wanna take my music! There's been plenty of times where labels have offered me some crazy deal where I'd be trapped forever and never promising I'd get attention when I KNEW I wasn't their main focus.. NO THANKS. And this ALSO means I get to SIGN BANDS TO MY LABEL!!! I always know what's gonna be hot, I know about every band before anyone and I'm living and breathing music 24/7.. so I'll be looking for bands that are actually TALENTED to sign to my label.. my fans always trust what I show them or ask to check out, my top 8 always has the bands I'm in love with that the moment... So, talented people, please show yourself! haha I cant WAIT to start on this huge project.
What is my label going to be calledddd? POPSICLE RECORDS
The FIRST release will be my 6 song EP entitled "Cupcakes Taste Like Violence" which will be IN STORES EVERYWHERE/on iTunes DECEMBER 9TH!!!! Are you readddddy?? I'll be putting up a new track from the CD on OCTOBER 3rd... and I'm gonna let you ALL download it for FREE since you've all been SO fucking amazing to me for waiting this long! Its a little THANK YOU and the least I can do<333 I just want everyone to hear my new music, my new sound and give it to everyone if you enjoy it. Theeeeen next year will be the long waited debut FULL length album by ME... called "BEAUTY KILLER" Not just digital music anymore.. I want everyone to be able to go into any stores and pick up my CD. I'm working on all new songs right now, as welll as the album art work and I just finished the cover for the EP.. its fucking FIERCE!!!
here is the tracklisting for my NEW FIRST release.. OUT Dec. 9th so mark the muthafuckin calendar:
Cupcakes Taste Like Violence EP 1. Miss Boombox 2. Lollipop Luxury 3. Cupcakes Taste Like Violence 4. Picture Perfect! 5. So Fierce 6. Heart Surgery (UVEV Remix)
See you all on tour soon...! Late OCT. & NOV. with BROKENCYDE as well as A EUROPE tour with them in MARCH... JUST FOR THE RECORD: I know so many of you have big dreams and please never lose your determination. I've been told SO many times that I'd never be anything, I was gonna disappear in 6 months. But my passion and devotion has pushed me to NEVER give up. I'm 21 and now own a record label! I've played sold out shows across America and Europe. I created my own merchandise line that's the top seller in Hot Topic. WHO HELPED ME? NO ONE. My drive will never go away. Haters, take lessons because you're all wasting so much energy on me for no reason. Kiss my rhinestoned pussy and start being positive because hate isn't attractive. =)
PS. Thank you to all my friends and fans forever. PSS. Heather Peggs & Mike Caren, you make me wetter then a swimming pool. Hell Ya!
UMMM THIS IS BY FAR my favorite collection of merch I've done so far!!!
here are THREE new items hitting HOT TOPIC stores this month!! some stores already have it so go get this shit before its gone!!! EVERYTHING is LIMITED EDITION as usual so this means once its gone, ITS GONE forever!
my fav is the rainbow & hearts sleeveless hoodie... its beyond FIERCE.
& of course I gotta start using my album title BEAUTY KILLER on stuff, so much more to come!!
[click photo to buy merch!]
I LOVE that my fans look better then everyone else.

Release date: 2008-07-01
I GOTTEN SOME MESSAGES RECENTLY THAT GO LIKE THIS:"My GOD your doing warped tour thats a real joke... WARPED is suposse to be PUNK RAWK, Metal, rock and all that hard stuff... seeing you play at warped is a real embarassment im asking myself if this could be a joke.... were suposse to hear good rock not DRAGGGG..."
Well thank the lord you people aren't booking Warped Tour because I am indeed playing and it is NO joke. So if you're going to be embarrassed, there are about 10 other stages and hundreds of other bands that may look better on your "PUNK RAWK" score card.
That's always been the fun of Warped Tour for me - the diversity. I've gone to Warped Tour since it started and being able to see everyone from the Vandals to Chiodos to Eminem has always been the best part of the tour. Its certainly kept the tour alive and helped it become the biggest punk rock tour on the planet. If Kevin Lyman kept bringing back the same lineup that he started with in 1995, he'd be broke and it wouldn't work since half those bands don't exist anymore and we'd all be going to see some other ever-evolving, up-to-the-music-minute tour because that is what is successful. Bands change and evolve, genres die and rise again, and musical tastes roll forward. If you're not growing, you'll get left where you belong - in the dust. So turn on your classic rock radio and stay home this summer if you can't accept that really simple fact. Want to hear "Don't Speak" live as played by Warped Tour First Year Veterans No Doubt? You're gonna have to get Gwen off her solo tour and sit through some Rocksteady singles because its 2008 and music has moved the fuck on.
How much has punk, rock, and metal changed since 1995? Hell, since the genres started? What IS punk anymore? Is it the Ramones? The Cure? NOFX? Green Day? Bad Religion? Good Charlotte? They all come up as punk on my iTunes and computers supposedly don't have emotions so they can't be prejudiced, right? What is metal? Metallica? Slayer? Black Sabbath? KoRn? Shadows Fall? Jethro Tull won the first Grammy award for Metal so they MUST be metal right? Well what the fuck are tours like Ozzfest and Metal Master Tour doing booking bands that don't sound like Jethro Tull! Metallica LOST to Jethro Tull - obviously, they aren't metal at all and never were! Fuck, JUDAS PREIST is HEADLINING the Metal Master tour! Don't people know that guy is a "faggot"?!? Judas Priest can't be metal if they have a "queer" in the band. And forget bands like Goatwhore and Motorhead. Shit, if you don't have someone who plays flute, mandolin, and harmonica just like Jethro Tull you can't be metal.
If we're supposed to be listening to "good rock" and not "drag", you better burn those 'Ziggy Stardust' albums. David Bowie was as drag as drag could be so there is certainly no place for him in punk rock. Thank god Bowie didn't influence any modern punk acts like AFI, My Chemical Romance, Placebo, the Used, or Fall Out Boy. Wait, are they punk or only punk on iTunes? If you sell a million records, are you still punk?
Let's start some sarcasm k? Just to be safe, we should separate bands that sell more than 10,000 records from those that sell more than 100,000. Those that sell 1,000,000+ shouldn't tour at all. It obviously doesn't help little bands that are just starting out to be on a tour with other, larger bands that draw in new fans. In fact, music shouldn't evolve at all so anyone who starts a new band should just be shot. Death to new genres of music! I just want to see No Doubt play their first record. Maybe they could tour with Jethro Tull! That'd be a classic punk rawk/metal tour just like Warped Tour is supposed to be. Plenty of people would go to see that.
And forget putting any hip hop-influenced acts on the bills. Real metal and punk artists will never listen to hip hop or collaborate with hip hop artists. Gym Class Who? No, no, no punk fans will never, ever want to hear something sung by dudes without mohawks. CDs of punk bands covering hip hop and pop will never sell. Punk goes Pop? Punk goes Krunk? No, no, no, never! Real punk bands like Fall Out Boy will never, ever work with hip hop producers.... wait, I never did decide if Fall Out Boy was punk or just iTunes punk... remind me, what is punk nowadays?
In all seriousness, fuck labels and what is supposed to be "punk" and "rock" and "metal." Good music is good music and tastes differ on what that is. Don't like Norma Jean? Go watch the Horrorpops. Don't like Reel Big Fish? Go watch The Saint Aliva Cartel. In fact, please watch them because their guitarist Rob has a really smart quote - "It wouldn't make sense for [Warped Tour] to be the same tour in 2007 as it was in 1997. These are the bands that kids like, and the tour is smart enough to grow and adapt to that. You still get bands like Bad Religion playing, so it's not like it's lost all its roots."
Let me roll my eyes while I say this: Some "totally punk" bands have complained that Warped Tour is too commercial, that bands on the tour have labels feeding them money and making sure their hair is trendy-spiked-black and their clothes are all the same as the Warped Tour fans. Well, I don't have a label, my hair is pinker than Barbie's corvette, and I'm pretty sure I'm the only bitch in Fendi shoes there. Does that make me punker than Against Me! who have a record deal? Anti-Flag has their own label so they can't be punk at all - they are part of the machine, right? Thank god I'm not like trendy bands with spikey black hair who wear makeup like Mötley Crüe! They're just doing it because they saw it on FUSE. And fuck that guy in the Hurley shirt, he just wants to fit in with the crowd! Wait, what do you mean that is Kevin Lyman? Well, what does Kevin Lyman know about Warped Tour anyway, right? Its not like he started it. Now let's be real because being funny doesn't last forever:
Warped Tour is supposed to have something for everyone and that is what makes is a strong, successful tour year after year. It helped break the bands that define genres like emo, hardcore, ska, and every flavor of punk/rock/metal you can make up a dumb name for. From 'mathcore' to 'screamo' to 'folkmetal', its gonna be on some stage at Warped this year if it hasn't already had its run. I think everyone should be thanking Kevin Lyman for believing that punk can't and shouldn't have one face and one sound forever. No one can listen to the same song on repeat for 14 years. It gets old. Except 'Spice Up Your Life.'
So me and my fierce band will be playing our "drag" music on Warped Tour from June 20th to June 29th. Come out and see us play with a bunch of other "joke" bands that don't sound a thing like 1995-era punk rock. Unless you're too busy going to see Jethro Tull live... In all seriousness, I just want to personally THANK WARPED TOUR for allowing me to be a part of their show. I'm honored and it's going to be an amazing summer.. see all your beautiful faces there.
My first headlining tour ended a week ago.. it feels so weird to be home. Driving my cars for the first time in awhile.. I can finally go fast because being in a bus is sllllow. Pinkberry, the beach at night. Chanel, Prada and Louis Vuitton. My close friends & cuddling. Watching COPS at 5AM eating popsicles. I missed these things.
I have so many good memories from this past tour.. 2008 is all about putting things in the past and letting shit go..
But it makes me sad when people who aren't in my life try and talk shit because I've made up with people. Wouldn't you be happy for two people who had drama and reunited again?? Raquel and I met 7 years ago.. we've had our ups and downs but I always knew I'd see her beautiful face again.. If people want to judge us for being friends again, please spare yourself the energy and just smile instead. It's a lot less negative. And as far as Chris Crocker and I go.. you can believe what you want but just know the past is dead and we're completely fine now.. underneath pink satin sheets or otherwise.
Do you wish you could be friends with someone you don't like anymore or that doesn't like you right now?
here are a few pictures from the road.
jacuzzi after party the worst place on earth ;) drama is our middle name 3AM never felt better Bamboozle red bull tent party being cute in Denver watching FTSK, so good! last night of the tour =(
Now it's time for me to get the fuck in the studio and record my cd which is titled "BEAUTY KILLER" I'm soooo excited.. if you came to any of the shows this past month then you've heard a few new songs.. "Cupcakes Taste Like Violence" & "Somebody's Watching Me" which will be on the CD! You're not ready..!!! <3 ANDDD...
I HAVE SOMETHING SPECIAL IN STORES.. Hot Topic presents the new JSTAR Ice Cream/Cupcake Wallets.. hot blue&fuschia! ITS ONLINE @ hottopic . com.. and it's starting to get into stores right now.. !!!

It feels so good to know that I'll be gone from home for a month.. from all the LA drama queens, negative energy and attitudes. To be honest, I wasn't sure how I'd survive touring for more then a few weeks.. because I've never even done a full tour before. Doing a week in London last year was alot to handle but I feel more prepared now.. It was scary for a second but now that the first week is over, I can rest assure that I won't die. But I WILL have to search for an amazing hair dresser on the road to touch up my roots because I ain't havin' dem look like shit haha The best thing I did before we left, was Matt took me to a shooting range with some friends and we got out all our anger by firing a bunch of different guns. It's honestly really good therapy.. I have anger management issues sometimes. When someone talks shit to me, I always end up in jail or something dramatic because my Compton girl side comes out and I gotta get crazy ;) Sooo... firing a Desert Eagle and wearing those funny clear glasses was the high light of my week.
The first few shows have been amazing.. right now Breathe Carolina and Dr Manhattan are opening up the shows for my "Jstar Will Steal Your Man Tour" - I kind of felt like the first day of school, because you never know how youre gonna get along with everyone. The Breathe Carolina guys have stayed at my house before and we've hung out so I'm so excited I get to see them every day.. best guys ever and I only take bands out that I LOVE musically.. because who wants to hear bands you hate every night right? I played there music for a months straight before meeting them haha - Last night after we played Phoenix, Arizona.. all of us turned on Lil' Jon and turned the venue into a dance party.. the Dr. Manhattan guys dance better then any ghetto bitch I know haha so amazing.. I'll post videos laterrr.<3
Before I fall asleep in the back of the bus, I need to share the highlights of the week:
Playing Bamboozle Left and having MTV say I was the best performance. Being in the middle of nowhere and having truck drivers stare at my ass. Buying Indian jewelry and hand-made ponchos Walking in high heels in the desert. My random nose bleed after I took off my fake eyelashes because the weather is so dry out Louis Vuitton blankets and head phones while I sleep The feeling of no makeup .. a long day.. Me buying a taser, mace and switchblades on the road Denny's milkshakes at 4AM Getting my new "Eat Me Bitch" t-shirts and wearing them to bed Pulling 70 kids dance on stage during "We Want Cunt" and sweating my life away Lipstick smears on everything Stopping in New Mexico and seeing an All Time Low poster above the cash register and giving them mine to hang right next to it haha so amazing Getting crunk to T-Pain and dancing until we can't breathe Playing Uno for 3 hours straight and losing our minds Smashing my head against the headboard and falling over in the middle of the night The 60 year old woman who said she loved the portrait of my mother on my leg & I asked if I could fuck her husband Wishing there was a Fendi store at the truck stops so I didn't have to look at old porn magazines & stale candy
work it, bitch!
I love these people.
Dr. Starhattan
Jac is the best.

hi, I'm dying.
always making a mess.
LV dreams.
bang bang.
we're kinda cute.<./font>
um where am I??
I'll check back with you all sooooon.. I bought the best new camera before we left so I'll be taking a bunch every day
Thank you to everyone so far who've came out and danced there hearts out.. You're the best. And we only wish you could know how much you mean to us..
Every year it seems like the months go by faster.. when I was younger, time used to go by so slow and I wanted so much from life but I had to wait until school was over. I had to wait for what my mother called "growing up" - it's been 3 years now since I graduated high school.. I'm 21 now and the days are going by so fast it's hard to look back on everything.. You sometimes don't realize what you have accomplished until you sit down for a second and reflect on everything that's happened in life. You remember where you came from and it makes you actually feel like you've done something important.
SO much has happened this past year. A few years ago I was just a broke kid from Orange County who had a dream, doing makeup for music and porn videos so I could eat and survive.. I'd look at everyone in front of the camera and think "I should be there.." I'd think that being behind the scenes wasn't for me. Seeing my friends on stage made me want this more than anything.. and now [fast forward] I've played sold out shows across the US and in other countries.. I've been on magazine covers, been on tv shows.. I've worked so hard for what I wanted..I've met so many amazing new friends along this journey and now I can support myself and buy everything I've ever wanted.. I can say fuck you to all the nonbelievers and I LOVE YOU too all the people who understand what I'm about and enjoy WHAT and WHO I am.. I NEVER thought that my t-shirts would be sold across the world and that so many amazing people would be into what I was.. it's crazy to think I was just some kid who people thought would never be anything. I always felt like I never wanted to go to college and follow the boring path that everyone else was gonna take after we graduated.. and I stuck to what I believed it. It's funny when people pretend to dislike me and say "what do you even DO? you're just famous for being YOU." which may have been true a few years ago when I was known for makeup but obviously I want to do everything, and I am.
I'm a musician, model, makeup artist, merchandise designer and QUEEN bitch ;) BUT, I don't do ANYTHING right?
Now I can sit here and reflect on life and realize that I'm actually HAPPY sometimes.. I haven't felt this way in a long time. I was so used to being happy being unhappy, that I forgot to look at the past, if that makes sense.. I have so much planned for 2008.. there are so many things to accomplish and I can't wait to start doing it all.. If you ever feel like giving up [because we all do, I feel like that all the time..] just know that anything is possible.. who would have thought that a pink haired freak show who called himself CUNT would turn into this, right? I love being able to laugh and smile about life.. I guess, I just want everyone to not feel so closed in about the future. When you're 16, you can't have it all. You have to wait and suffer and go through life, it's called LIVING. And it may suck right now, but it makes you who YOU are. I'm glad I haven't had everything handed to me, because then I wouldn't appreciate it at all.
The morning when I woke up and I realized that no one but myself mattered in the long run, was the moment I'll never forget. And I don't mean that in a self-absorbed way. I mean, not caring what anyone thinks about me when they don't know me. It's very easy to follow the crowd and be like everyone else.. but why not be who you are on the inside. Ignore opinions and people telling you what you should like. I just woke up and said "Fuck it, if I wanna like the Spice Girls and have pink hair then everyone else can get over it and learn how to have the guts to do what they want." That might sound stupid when you say it out loud but I have a lot of respect for people that don't succumb to what the world thinks is "right" - and that doesn't mean you have to have a bright color hair or dress weird to be considered "yourself" because that's constricting what I'm saying.. I just think that everyone should be happy without worrying what the person next to them is saying. Be strong. Be yourself. You only live once and I don't ever wanna change. Don't give up on whatever it is you want to be. I get labeled a "bitch" because I don't put up with people putting me down. I don't turn around and pretend I don't hear people talking shit behind my back. I go up and tap them on the shoulder and say "fuck you" and that's what more people need to do. Stop being insecure and stand up for yourself. There's no time for fake friendships and hurt feelings. Look at yourself in the mirror and say "I don't care anymore" that may sound like Dr. Phil but I'm being serious. Stop caring if the guy you like doesn't like your weight. Stop worrying about if someone isn't going to like you because you like a band that they don't. It's all so petty. I'm proud to be a bitch instead of a coward.
My life may be weird and boring and stupid to some, but at least its mine--not some assembly line, secondhanded, hand-me-down life.
They said I'd never be anything but who has the world watching them? Who has such amazing and dedicated fans? People need to hate me because they hate themselves. They want to believe the rumors about me because they don't have their own rumors. I'm here to stay, with my diamond rims and pink lipstick, so get used to it and worry about yourself before you try and be negative towards me. What does the future hold for Jeffree Star? Go and buy some sunglasses because the future is bright pink, bitch.
See you all SOON.. on the road.. on your tv screen.. through your speakers. I'll be there.
HOLLYWOOD IS FULL OF SHIT! Does everyone really believe what they see on TV or read online? Hollywood is a place that I've grown up with.. It's ruined my life before and made me who I am today. There's no denying any of that.. I LOVE it here. I would never move away.. It's ME. But with everything, there's always the dark side. LA is full of SHIT and so are 90% of the assholes that live here. It's so easy to read someone's Myspace page and think that what they're showing you is true. All these scene "queen" bitches who pretend they're rich when in reality they can hardly make it so they have to use every band they can get near.. And all these fake ass BANDS who lie and say they have a record deal and tons of money, when in reality they're a fucking joke in this city but sadly, kids across the world think they're "cool" for 5 seconds because of what they say and who they PORTRAY themselves to be.
The only reason why I'm wasting 10 minutes of my time saying this, is because I get asked ALL THE TIME: "Are you friends with ______??"
It's common, because there are thousands of pictures of me online w/people and everyone wonders.. are they friends, enemies..? does he still talk with so-and-so.. and I think it's time I address some of these things. I don't want to be associated with A LOT of my past anymore because my EX-friends are fucking jokes or I don't believe in what they stand for anymore.
HATERS. That's what it comes down to.. and we can all argue every day about people being "jealous" and hating JEFFREE STAR, but it doesn't matter.. you can't deny the facts.
Talking shit is an art form I mastered a long time ago and youre far behind in the game. Every time you speak your mind, I'm laughing because you dont make sense. Every time you say I'm ugly, I look in the mirror and smile. Every time you call me a fucking cunt, I agree. Every time you push me, I smash your face with my compact. Every time you steal what I've made, I create more. Im a machine, but sorry sweetheart my battery is fully charged and Im not going anywhere. So here we go.. ready? DEAR HATERS...
I love being dissected, looked at and told I'm wrong. I love how everyone can say what they want but once its my turn I have to keep quiet. But every time I REPLY, I'm told another LIE and the story goes on.. My life is exactly what it is: MY FUCKING LIFE. So why are you pretending to be a part of it? Sorry but the DO NOT ENTER sign means YOU and I'm tired of seeing the same 14 year old faces running their mouths when they have no idea what theyre talking about. You pretend to know everything about me when I never let you see it all in the first place. I keep myself to ME because its MINE and I'm not letting you take that away.. But I will take away your dignity and I'll eat it whole and vomit it back up. Make sure to clean up the mess.
I'm the QUEEN BITCH, the motherfucker you love to hate. I call myself these things with sarcasm. I'm not a beauty queen. This isnt a TV show, this is ME. I'm not some model dying for attention and showing my body so everyone can tell me I'm not fat. I'm not sitting here begging for compliments because you can go fuck yourself some more. This isn't a sex video and though I may dress like I just walked out of a porno, there is no FUCKING involved here.
THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO PROVE BECAUSE THERE WAS NOTHING TO PROVE IN THE FIRST PLACE
get it?
I'm not pretty. I'm not special or unique. I'm just honest and that seems to be a problem here. And how do we solve problems? We kill them, talk about them and FIX them. Would you like to fix me? I'd rather punch you in the face so find someone else. A million times I've been crucified, but unlike Jesus Christ, I'm still standing here with nothing to hide. I'm in your face when you tell me to fuck off. I'm spitting in your face when you hide behind your computer screen. I'm waiting for you when you pretend youre going to kick my ass. NOTHING HAS EVER HAPPENED. But why not? I've gotten into a hundred fights before with people who MEANT it. But no one on this website does.. The people I know in REAL life on Myspace who have talked shit are all scared people. There lives are fucking pathetic so they try and infect mine. But I have my own disease so youve chosen the wrong contestant to star in your little game show. The games I play are simple: finish what you start. But thats another problem everyone ELSE seems to have.
So let me be honest for a second.. I see so many people writing posts about how I'm an attention whore. Im a fag, an ugly cross dressing bitch.. well those words are easy to type on a computer and those words are easy to say when you have a made-up screen name and FAKE photos to go with the name.. and its also easy to tell me how STUPID and UGLY I am when you live 8 states away.. or even in the same town as me. But when you come face to face with these people, it's the same story. They all back down and say they didnt mean to or I'm so sorry because they're full of shit.
Analyze my LIFE....my LYRICS...or simply ask. I will always play a game of show and tell with you. As long as you are willing to do the same with me. I will read until my eyes grow tired and bored from your constant digging...in attempt to bury me alive when I have already been dead...on the inside. I HAVE been there. HAVE YOU? Too young to know the truth about me past or present but I don't resent you or hold you in contempt for what you do not know. Everyday I grow..... STRONGER weaker LOUDER meeker FINDER keeper FIND HIM keep HIM ...away from ...me not talking to... me stopped talking to ...ME? If ONLY YOU would STOP TALKING ...every time YOU fucking see .......me. If only...I didn't feel fake when YOU smile in MY face. Let my lwords eat you alive ...it seems all the LIES survive together. Come take your piece of me...if that's what you want. Rip me apart until I bleed... because it's all MY fault.
In the end it won't mean anything because I'm tired of being angry. I'm glad that so many have devotion for wanting me dead. I'm glad YOU hate me because that means you're THINKING and wasn't that my goal in the first place? I just want you to LEARN something since YOU'RE so close-minded. Isn't that right?
WHENEVER I POST AN ENTRY ON THIS WEBSITE IT SEEMS I INVOKE A CERTAIN STRANGE RESPONSE THAT IS SHARED BY MANY. MOST OF THE TIME THE LETTERS I GET ARE BEAUTIFUL, WELL WRITTEN, POSITIVE AND SUPPORTIVE. OCCASIONALLY I WILL GET A FEW THAT ARE NOT JUST NASTY BUT SO POORLY WRITTEN, THEY ARE EMBARRASSING TO EVEN READ ("INGNORANCE DOES NOT EQUAL INTELLIGENCE") YET THE PERSON WRITING THEM IS OF THE OPINION THEY ARE IN SOME WAY SO PROFOUND AND/OR PROLIFIC. IF CALLING ME A "FAGGOT" OR A "BITCH" IS THE BEST YOU CAN DO WHEN DENOUNCING MY WEBSITE AND LYRICS...I THINK YOU TRULY NEED TO GET A NEW VOCABULARY AND INVEST IN A NEW DICTIONARY MY DARLING. I WILL SAY...CHANGING YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS AFTER BEING BLOCKED OR IGNORED JUST SO YOUR SAME USELESS AND REPETATIVE HATE MAIL WILL GET THROUGH OVER AND OVER AGAIN DOES SHOW STAMINA.. SO YOU ARE HEREBY GIVEN AN "A".........BECAUSE ALTHOUGH IT DOES NOT TAKE A GREAT DEAL OF EFFORT TO BE AN "A...sshole"....YOU HAVE DONE THE WORK!
I KNOW THAT I AM OPENING MYSELF UP TO CRITICISM. IT'S ALWAYS NICE TO FEEL SUPPORT AND PRAISE BUT I DON'T EXPECT IT AND NEVER TAKE IT FOR GRANTED. IT SEEMS EVERYONE IS A CRITIC..EVERYONE ...INCLUDING MYSELF.
I FEEL...SO I WRITE WHAT I FEEL. I WRITE WHEN I READ OR SEE OR HEAR SOMETHING OR SOMEONE WHO INSPIRES ME TO DO SO. THEN THERE ARE THE TIMES I JUST WRITE TO HEAL.
I HAVE BEEN ON THE ATTACK LATELY. BEEN ATTACKED..AND ATTACKING BACK. I DON'T FORGET NOR DO I FORGIVE EASILY IN MY LIFE. PEOPLE THINK THEY KNOW ME BECAUSE I POUR IT OUT. I NEVER POUR IT ALL OUT. I ALWAYS KEEP JUST ENOUGH FOR MYSELF. IN CASE I NEED IT IN THE END.
I WILL GIVE AWAY WHAT I CAN. SOMETHINGS I CANNOT. I CANNOT TELL THE FULL STORY BEHIND EVERY EVENT IN MY LIFE OR PERSON I HAVE COME TO KNOW. THERE ARE ALWAYS TWO SIDES TO THE STORY AND WE ALL HAVE OWN PERSONAL VERSION AS TO WHAT HAPPENED...WITH WHO...WHY...AND WHEN. MY WORDS ARE ALWAYS TO BE LEFT TO EVERYONE'S OWN INTERPRETATION ALTHOUGH THEY ARE BASED ON A REAL LIFE EVENT OR PERSON FROM MY OWN LIFE.
I WILL EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED WITH CERTAIN PEOPLE WHEN I FEEL IT IS TRULY NECESSARY TO DO SO. I HAVE NEVER HAD MUCH TO OFFER EXCEPT MY LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP...AND LOYALTY. SOMETIMES THAT IS NOT ENOUGH FOR CERTAIN PEOPLE. FRIENDSHIP IS NOT SOMETHING I TAKE FOR GRANTED. I REFUSE TO PRETEND TO BE SOMEONES FRIEND WHEN I KNOW I AM NOT.
I ALSO REFUSE TO LET SOMEONE PRETEND TO BE MINE WHEN I KNOW THEY ARE NOT. I HATE FAKENESS...ESPECIALLY IN PEOPLE I ONCE ADORED. THE INTERNET IS SUCH AN UGLY PLACE SO FILLED WITH HATE AND RUMORS. IT IS WHAT IT IS, AND WE ALL USE IT IN WHATEVER WAY WE FEEL WILL BEST SUIT US. WE ALL HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR WHAT WE SAY....SOME OF US CAN HIDE BEHIND A MADE UP SCREEN NAME...IT'S EASY THAT WAY. IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH EFFORT TO FIND OUT WHO SOMEONE IS...WHEN AND IF WE WANT TO...NOT MUCH EFFORT AT ALL. MY QUESTION IS THIS....
WHY DO YOU CARE SO MUCH WHEN YOU DON'T CARE AT ALL? IS IT LIKE A CAR CRASH? YOU HAVE TO LOOK...YOU HAVE TO SEE FOR YOURSELF WHAT IT SAYS? MAYBE IT IS...MAYBE THIS JOURNAL IS LIKE A CAR CRASH TO SOME OF YOU WHO HATE ME...YOU CAN'T STAND WHAT I SAY..YET, YOU CAN'T FUCKING STOP READING IT...AND WRITING SHIT ME ABOUT IT. HMMMMM?
WELL...NO ONE IS DEAD HERE. NO ONE HAS BEEN KILLED AT THE SCENE. I AM ALIVE AND STILL BREATHING AND WRITING. DOES THAT SCARE YOU? IF IT DOES THEN MAYBE ...YOU ARE THE ONE WITH THE PROBLEM...NOT ME.
I PUT MYSELF HERE..UNDER THIS MICROSCOPE FOR ALL TO SEE AND PICK APART. MY FLAWS ARE OBVIOUS...I DON'T HIDE THEM. I COULDN'T IF I TRIED. SHOULD I APOLOGIZE FOR THINGS I HAVE SAID? DO THEY PLAN ON QUOTING ME? SHOULD I APOLOGIZE FOR MY WEIGHT? FOR BEING GAY? WILL IT BE USED AGAINST ME?
PROBABLY.
BUT IT'S WHO I AM. IT'S ME. ALL OF IT.
TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT...IT'S UP TO YOU. NO ONE IS FORCING YOU TO LISTEN TO IT OR READ IT. NO ONE IS FORCING YOU TO UNDERSTAND IT....
UNDERSTANDING COMES FROM KNOWING.
and not many people really know me...THEY JUST THINK THEY DO.
KNOW YOURSELF FIRST. "Only a fool walks into the future looking back on his past." It's the weak ones who will always be simple to eat and kill. You all seem to be so good at hating me that it's hard to hate you back because you're all so hopeless. You're all so ugly. You are all so pathetic. So the story has been told and the magazine will be thrown in the trash, just like your wasted efforts to prove something thats not even there. Thank you, my fans, for everything because without YOU guys, I wouldn't be where I am today. Opinions with TRUTH and things to back them up are what MEANS something, not childish insults and name calling. You WON'T be taken serious.
Let me delete your names and erase your faces If you're so afraid of me than stay the fuck away.
THIS IS THE END.
Some things are better left FUCKING SAID. Not unsaid.
Love + Lipstick,
JEFFREE *
