“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

Happy Birthday, Squeaky Blonde!!! Here's a photo of us from back when we were young...

Class is in session and it’s a drag! Next Friday at Stanford Live, I kick off 2026 with Drag Academy. Join professors BeBe Sweetbriar, Fauxnique, and me w/ students from the sensational Stanford Drag Troupe. Queer music, sequin, & school spirit. Tickets are moving fast! peacheschrist.com/live-shows

An American was murdered by ICE in public. If you’re still calling this “law and order,” you’re repeating propaganda. They want fear and silence. Stay loud! Resistance persists with truth, solidarity, and refusing to look away.

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

❤️❤️❤️

This is a BIG one for us!!!! Tune in to hear our fabulous conversation with the legendary icon, NELL CAMPBELL!!!

Sending the happiest of birthday wishes to my frequent collaborator, and more importantly, chosen family: The incomparable @peacheschrist.com! Our friendship makes every day feel like the best kind of midnight movie. Go wish her the best!

Finally made it to Island of the Dolls, and it lived up to the legend. Creepy, surreal, tragic, and strangely beautiful, like a folk-horror movie floating in the canals. Mexico City continues to be a dream destination for anyone who loves the macabre, the mythic, and religious gore.

Calling all listeners of the Midnight Mass Podcast aka the Children of the Popcorn! Get ready! At midnight, we’re releasing an all-new episode celebrating the mother of all cult movies... @midnightmasspod.bsky.social

Official Child of Christ, THOMAS DEKKER, makes a return to horror and I simply cannot wait!!! @bloody-disgusting.com bloody-disgusting.com/movie/392380...

Picked up the new Mick Rock 'Rocky Horror Picture Show' book for a quick flip, then @darrenstein.bsky.social texts: “I love that you made it in via this Jinkx quote!” Floored cuz I had no idea, lol. Grateful being name-checked by daughther, on a page w/ idol Pat Quinn. Perfect start to the new year!

Born on this day in 1945, Happy 80th Birthday, LLOYD KAUFMAN! 🎉

I finally made a TOP 10 list!!! I share this honor with Jinkx & DeLa... www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/ale...

So many people forget…

Santa gave me his sauce last night!

Ho Ho WOOF! This week on Midnight Mass, Peaches and Michael celebrate 2022’s Violent Night! Joined by critic Alonso Duralde plus writers Pat Casey & Josh Miller, we dive into Santa’s bruiser-daddy era and the joy of subversive holiday chaos. Listen at PEACHESCHRIST.COM! @midnightmasspod.bsky.social

Happy Birthday, Darren!!! Thank you for your creativity, your friendship, your gonzo genius, and for always making the world a little more queer, a lot more fun, and absolutely unforgettable. Here’s to another year of mischief, magic, and miracles together. 🖤🎬🍸 @darrenstein.bsky.social

Happy Birthday to my dear friend Sister Roma! An icon, activist, and community leader, Roma is celebrating by raising funds for the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. If you can, please donate in her honor and help make it rain for a fab cause: givebutter.com/thesisters-r...

Had an immaculate time today filming the iconic @peacheschrist.com and a gaggle of subterranean mutants

Thrilled to announce we’re bringing a brand new show to Stanford Live on January 16! 🎓✨ Tickets are officially on sale now for DRAG ACADEMY — enroll while you can at peacheschrist.com/all-events/?...

Mia Tretta’s powerful piece left me overwhelmed. A survivor of a school shooting now writing about another on her college campus. This can never become normal. Her strength, and that of her mom, my friend Tiffany Shepis, is inspiring. We must keep fighting for change. time.com/7341412/brow...

Holiday Gaiety is wrapped, and PeachOut Productions is just getting started! From Symphony of Terror to Symphonic Pride to our Rock Out shows, we’re ready to bring the magic to your city. Explore our work and tell your local symphony to book us. Demand it! Queer the halls: peachout.peacheschrist.com

I'm a big Todd Haynes fan & saw Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story while in film school, which led me to the brill, Poison. Safe sealed the deal and Velvet Goldmine made my obsession official. Thrilled that Frameline invited me to their annual Lesbian Christmas! sf.gazetteer.co/todd-haynes-...

Glowing from last night’s 8th Holiday Gaiety with the SF Symphony. What an absolute joy, and a true honor, to stand on that stage surrounded by such wildly talented, generous, brilliant artists. I’m full of gratitude for every performer, musician, and collaborator who made the night so magical.🎄

Liverpool debut: After A Christmas Gaiety, the audience waited outside for photos and for one delirious, post-show moment I genuinely felt like one of the Beatles. Sharing the stage with Edwin Outwater and then being met with that legendary Liverpool love, even just for one night, I’ll take it.

I made a video with leather daddy Teddy Bryce and used it to invite Cate Blanchett to CAROL DAY with Frameline in San Francisco. Manifesting respectfully with feeling and leather. 🎥✨ @framelinefestival.bsky.social #CarolDay #CateBlanchett #Frameline #QueerCinema #LeatherDaddy #PeachesChrist

About to hit the stage at the Liverpool Philharmonic for A Christmas Gaiety with leather daddy Teddy Bryce and the brilliantly talented Kyran Thrax. I’ve fallen madly in love with LIVERPOOL!!! 💖🎄

IDOL WORSHIP: An Evening with Mink Stole & Peaches Christ is hitting the road in early 2026! Join us for cult cinema, camp, conversation, and a special concert of songs in Rochester, Toronto, Columbus, Chicago, Madison & Denver. Tickets at peacheschrist.com/idol-worship/ 🎟️✨

Thank you so much! It’s on my chest, left pec. Here’s another more zoomed out shot.

On a long road trip rn and just finished this episode. Everyone articulated so well how this movie (and its subsequent sequels) embedded itself into our DNA as Gen Xers in a huge way. Like @peacheschrist.com I was 10 when it came out, 11 when I saw it on VHS, and it chemically altered me. Blame Fred

Loved the most recent episode! @peacheschrist.com & @michaelvarrati.bsky.social have such love and reverence for this essential piece of horror! Having just had a version of Freddy tattooed on me last week!

I always love chatting horror with my ghoulfriends @peacheschrist.com and @michaelvarrati.bsky.social on my favorite podcast! Midnight Mass!!!!

💔 A European Parliament interpreter could not hold back tears during the speech of 11-year-old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv. The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.

Traveling abroad as an American right now is wild. Everywhere I go I’m met with genuine concern, side-eye, and soft-spoken pity. Folks truly cannot fathom what’s happening back home, and honestly… neither can I. 💔

In response to the unearned hate being flung at Matthew Lillard, I want to present episode 100 from the @midnightmasspod.bsky.social where he cries talking about how his work on SLC Punks inspires kids to feel seen. Shout out to the irreplaceable @peacheschrist.com peacheschrist.com/midnight-mass/

I’ve worked regularly in the UK for 15+ years and yet I still stand at exits like an escaped Victorian child, rattling the handle, forgetting to push the little green button. Confused and panicked, frustrating the locals. What is it even for? In a fire, I will simply perish.

San Francisco! Have you gotten your tickets for HOLIDAY GAIETY at SF Symphony for a show conducted by Edwin Outwater and hosted by moi?!? With a cavalcade of stars including Sasha & Adore! 🎟️ peacheschrist.com/live-shows/

Brunch got possessed in Manchester today! Peaches x Peaches at Cheddar Gorgeous’ house for a delicious brunch, all while solving world problems. The clergy has been notified. #peaches #peachesnisker #cheddargorgeous #peacheschrist

The one year anniversary of Yoon's failed martial law takeover just passed and lots of untold stories came out proving that THE ONLY REASON KOREA IS STILL A FREE COUNTRY IS BECAUSE PEOPLE DISOBEYED ILLEGAL ORDERS. The coup was over in hours because people said no.

Off to unleash the GAIETY symphony spectaculars in Gateshead and Liverpool, but first, a sacred pit stop for chosen family time in Manchester! Ready for all the Mancunian hugs from Bren, Cheddar Gorgeous, Anna Phylactic, Liquorice Black and more…

Thinking about bands I love & the idea of a perfect trilogy, when an artist drops THREE flawless albums back to back. Some fave bands surely have three or more perfect albums, just not consecutively (Siouxsie, PSB, etc.). And yes, I know some of you are about to fight me on DM and The Cure. Discuss

Thankful to be up in Portland with Nihat this week dog-sitting for this incredible cutie, Vinnie.

We dare you to say his name! This week on Midnight Mass, Peaches & Michael celebrate 1992s CANDYMAN- Tony Todd’s icon status, the film’s lasting sociopolitical power, plus guests DeVaughn Taylor & Xero Gravity. From hypnotic eyes to bees. peacheschrist.com/midnight-mass @midnightmasspod.bsky.social

I believe in shopping small- supporting artists, weirdos & community over corporate real-life monsters. Which brings me, SHAMELESSLY, to my Black Friday Sale! This Friday–Dec 19 at store.peacheschrist.com. Shop small. Shop scary. Shop Peaches. 😈

Summer 2026 marks 30 years of Peaches Christ in San Francisco (!) and I’m toying with a celebration. Don’t know- maybe a party, a show, a retrospective, something big and filthy and fabulous. What would you want to see? Tell me your wildest ideas as I start plotting this anniversary insanity.

This is GREAT!
