Excited to kick off a new LGBTQ+ cultural series at the Commonwealth Club with “Peaches Christ: Eat the Rich” on Friday, March 13 at 6pm. Expect drag, punk spirit, and some provocative conversation about power, wealth, and whether billionaires should even exist. Join us! www.ebar.com/story/163829

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for. Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

It’s showtime! This week on @midnightmasspod.bsky.social we celebrate 1988’s BEETLEJUICE. Writer David M. Booher joins to talk Burton’s goth classic, & drag legend Countess Katya Smirnoff-Skyy pays tribute to Catherine O’Hara. Sandworms, shrimp cocktails, & the ghost with the most. PEACHESCHRIST.com

This is a special Midnight Mass episode as it pays big tribute to one of the film's icons... MIDNIGHT TONIGHT

Denver, TONIGHT! Mink and I have lots of problems. Maybe we're twisted? They say we're insane but WE DON'T CARE. It’s the final show of the U.S. / Canadian leg of this tour. Only a few tickets remain. See you there, hopefully! Tickets at peacheschrist.com. New photo by David Hawke.

Trans people in Kansas deserve safety, dignity, and the freedom to live openly without fear. You are not alone. Your lives, your identities, your freedom, and your joy matter. I stand with you.

LONDON, I'm officially jealous you have access to this programming. "Trash! The Wildest Films You’ve Ever Seen" season announced for BFI Southbank and our Idol Worship show is the centerpiece happening. Tickets for BFI members on sale March 10 and General on March 12 www.bfi.org.uk/news/trash-w...

Really want to see @peacheschrist.com and Mink stole live. It might be possible for me to take some time off and go to either #Manchester, #Edinburgh or #Dublin in april to see the show. Do I have any bluesky pals living near or in any of those cities who plan to go and see Idol worship?

39 years ago today, Dream Warriors premiered & rewired my brain. True scares and wildly inventive kills, plus a sassy monster. And that gothic synch score by Badalamenti is GREAT. The one sheet that hung in my childhood bedroom is now properly framed in my living room. Happy Dream Warriors day!

We loved doing the show in Chicago!!! Tonight in Madison and Sunday in Denver before heading to the U.K., Ireland, and Amsterdam in April... Finals show in SF in June : )

With the legendary icon, Cotton Venus in Toronto!!! Mink Stole looks freakishly small here for some odd reason...

When the Commonwealth Club asked what I wanted to talk about, I said “Eat the Rich.” On FRIDAY THE 13TH, March 13, I’m diving into power, greed, class, and who’s really getting devoured. Join me for a sharp, unfiltered conversation at the Commonwealth Club. www.commonwealthclub.org/events/2026-...

Due character limits I couldn't also include Manchester, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Dublin, and Amsterdam!

Mink & I are loving being back on the road. These shows mean the world to me because after 25 years we’re heading toward our grand finale this June in S.F. See us while you can!. This pic is from Rochester on Thursday. Tonight Toronto, then Columbus, Chicago, Madison, Denver, and London in April.

This is Salkinds of wonderful as I guest on top movie salon MIDNIGHT MASS alongside the legendary @peacheschrist.com & @michaelvarrati.bsky.social to talk SUPERGIRL, Dunaway, cute gardeners & a taster about BOND, QUEER BOND... open.spotify.com/episode/31bV... #MidnightMass #Supergirl #BondQueerBond

What’s your all time favorite needle drop in a movie, the kind where the scene would never be the same without that track? Mine is Goodbye Horses by Q Lazzarus in The Silence of the Lambs. I want to know yours.

Finally saw Sam Raimi’s SEND HELP and wow it lived up to the hype. I loved it. Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien absolutely understood the assignment. Camp is wildly underrated because it’s so hard to do well. Thrilled to see Raimi this gloriously unhinged again. Also, Dylan can get it.

A sad day for the children of the popcorn. Bud Cort, unforgettable in Harold and Maude and seen in But I’m a Cheerleader, has passed. A true cult cinema original whose spirit shaped generations of weirdos. Read more: variety.com/2026/film/ne... @midnightmasspod.bsky.social

Was surprised by how much I enjoyed Luc Besson’s DRACULA. It’s a real spectacle! To be fair, for most of the second act I thought I was watching Tommy Wiseau’s “The Castle”.

I may or may not have been a BIT starstruck… so I’m especially happy with how my Our Lives interview with Mink Stole and Peaches Christ turned out. Counting down the days until the 27th! ❤️ @minkstole.bsky.social @peacheschrist.com

Hell yeah!!! Listening to the Chopping Mall episode of @midnightmasspod.bsky.social!! I love @peacheschrist.com and @michaelvarrati.bsky.social It’s my favorite podcast!! @kellimaroney.bsky.social ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Idol Worship: Peaches Christ and Mink Stole provoke, entertain and tell stories drewrowsome.blogspot.com/2026/02/idol... #film #drag #icon @peacheschrist.com #minkstole #paradiseonbloor #horror #bmoviebliss #cult #LGBTQ

I’m beyond thrilled to announce our UK and European IDOL WORSHIP tour with Mink Stole, her first time performing in these cities. Special guests at every stop. Tickets on sale now at peacheschrist.com except London BFI on sale March 12th for public. Counting the days to see our UK and Euro friends!

Today, I met a young drag queen from the U.K. named Faggie Smith. With a name that good, she’s clearly one to keep a very close eye on.

Toured the renovated Castro & I’m blown away. Gorgeous stadium seating, top-notch screen & sound, new 4K projector + full 35mm/70mm capability. Safety upgrades & backstage spaces- incredible. Can't wait to host Trash Talk w/ John Waters, & Showgirls w/ Gina Gershon. news.pollstar.com/2026/01/30/v...

Have a nice day! This week on the Midnight Mass Pod, Peaches & Michael hit the Galleria for 1986’s CHOPPING MALL! From Kelli Maroney & Barbara Crampton to killer robots and dangerous gum chewing, it’s chaos. Guests Bryan & Dave White & Mae Shults join PEACHESCHRIST.COM @midnightmasspod.bsky.social

For @theguardian.com I dug into the incredible life and mysterious death of drag icon Heklina, who was found dead in an apartment in 'unexpected' circumstances. Peaches and many other drag legends helped me tell the story of Heklina's amazing life and the questions remaining around her death.

The Epstein revelations keep deepening and the silence from the MAGA cult gets louder. At what point does anyone admit this is indefensible and step away?

Will never stop loving FRANKENHOOKER. Filthy, perfect midnight movie cinema. Remember the VHS box w/the button that said “Wanna date?” ICONIC. And when All About Evil screened in NYC, Frank Henenlotter appeared and I about died from a panic attack. Thankfully he told me he loved it. #frankenhooker

Drag, camp, and horror. S/O to @peacheschrist.com !

Bringing our beloved SHOWGIRLS spectacular back to the Castro and it’s going to be pure, horny glamour. Big screen decadence, live Goddess worship, & a room full of filthy little devotees ready for a FREE lapdance. SF, we’re doing this again. #showgirls #sf www.sfchronicle.com/entertainmen...

2026 marks 30 years of Peaches Christ in SF and I’m kicking off the celebration in a big way. This Thursday the 26th, I’ll be announcing the first anniversary event in my newsletter & yes, it’s the return of a beloved classic. peacheschrist.com to be the first to know. @midnightmasspod.bsky.social

Incredible article about Heklina in the The Guardian about her iconic legacy. If you ever saw her light up a stage, ever felt the impact of Trannyshack, ever loved SF drag because it was fearless and dangerous and hilarious and alive- this is essential reading. www.theguardian.com/culture/2026...

Loved The Bone Temple, and not just for the alpha peen. Ralph Fiennes fully executed a drag number so good it resurrected my memories of Metal Patricia at the Russian River Massacre around 2001. IYKYK on all counts.

Primary all seven Democrats who voted alongside Republicans to further fund ICE. Say GOODBYE to representatives Tom Suozzi (New York), Henry Cuellar (Texas), Don Davis (North Carolina), Laura Gillen (New York), Jared Golden (Maine), Vicente Gonzalez (Texas), and Marie Glusenkamp Perez (Washington).

So fucked up. A five-year-old imprisoned by ICE is an indictment of our entire country. Please let this be a rock-bottom nightmare we survive, reckon with, and ultimately hold people accountable for their vile, anti-human behavior.

Only interested in supporting candidates who refuse corporate money. Corporate Democrats serve corporate interests. Between corporations, religion, & billionaires, this country has fucked itself. I use End Citizens United and Justice Dems. What other tools help vet truly grassroots candidates?

They’re here! This week on Midnight Mass, Peaches Christ & Michael Varrati haunt the suburbs with 1982’s POLTERGEIST. Joined by Christopher Hamblin and ghost huntress Roz Hernandez, they dig into Carol Anne, clown dolls, and Reagan-era dread. Listen at peacheschrist.com @midnightmasspod.bsky.social

Mink and I are coming soon to Rochester, Toronto, Columbus, Chicago, Madison, and Denver and we’d love to have you join us for some IDOL WORSHIP! peacheschrist.com/idol-worship/ #minkstole #peacheschrist #johnwaters #cultfilm #midnightmovie

Saw the new Gus Van Sant movie and thought it was great.

Opening Drag Academy with It’s a Sin by @petshopboys.co.uk felt like a queer homecoming. Not only was it the 1st number I performed at Trannyshack in 1996 but I was 13 when it came out and obsessed doesn’t quite cover it. At 17, I saw the PSB on the Performance Tour in D.C., and EVERYTHING clicked.

Drag Academy at Stanford Live was pure joy. Huge love to Professors BeBe Sweetbriar & Fauxnique, and stunning students Uranus Stardust, KARMIKA, and Militta. Special pride for my daughter Lavender stepping in last minute and shining. Celebrating queer music history matters now more than ever. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Happy Birthday to the legend himself, TIMMY SPENCE!!! I think this photo might be an actual work of art. Photo by Nicole Fraser-Herron.

DUBLIN! You're lucky, He's lucky, I'm lucky, we're all lucky! Mink Stole & I make our Dublin debut when Idol Worship lands at the prestigious Irish Film Institute on April 18 as part of our massive 2026 tour. VIP available now. General tix on sale Tuesday: ifi.ie/film/idol-wo... This one is special.

“Watching real people perform, make mistakes, and even fail is satisfying and healing in a world of robotic bullshit.” –moi Queer failure is underrated and part of my work. Love this article on Drag Academy at Stanford Live. Few tix remain tomorrow night. www.metrosiliconvalley.com/peaches-chri...

Having been gay-bashed, watching an ICE agent murder a queer woman as her wife begged her to drive away is horrific. It traumatizes queer people who’ve lived w/ this threat since youth. We know if our attackers had guns + authority, we wouldn’t be here. He couldn’t let a gay woman have the last word
