VIDEO CLIPS OF TOQUE DE TOKYO, JAPANESE TV DOCUMENTARY WITH ANTOINE DE CAUNES. FRENCH CANAL PLUS PROGRAM.

Tis an exciting time… in addition to bringing the NOH8 non-profit to Tokyo, I have new writing and TV jobs are in the works. (Will let you know everything soon.)
I know you’ve been itching to see the Toqué de Tokyo French TV documentary I co-hosted in Japan, with Antoine de Caunes. Finally, I’ve put up clips on my YouTube.
I was Antoine’s guide to Tokyo theme restaurants and crazy subcultures in the 90-minute TV special. I took him to an ear cleaning parlor, theme cafes (babies, cats, maids), and two wild Goth cyber fetish clubs (Tokyo Decadance and Department H). Watch me ride in a rickshaw and laugh manically with my partner in crime, Yukiro Dravarious! (The video is above and here.)

We gave Antoine a taste of our psychedelic clubbing world. (Yukiro went as Jem and the Holograms.)

It’s fun to have my friends involved in the TV shoots. G-suS and Count de Sang gave him a bite of Tokyo Decadance’s nightlife.

On my list of places to visit: the Drop Dead Festival for Gothic Punk and Weird Wave music/culture. The last one was in Lithuania, of all places.

Unzipped pants and nipple tape… what more do you need in a boy?

Here are links to all the BEHIND-THE-SCENES PHOTOS from the Tokyo TV shoot:

What do you think of my Toque de Tokyo TV clips? Were you mesmerized or petrified by any of the places we visited?

MR BLACK LOS ANGELES, BARDOT HOLLYWOOD: LOS ANGELES GAY LGBT CLUB. LA CLUBS, BEST NIGHTLIFE EVENTS LISTING.

Where am I? Who are these glamorous aliens?

Hint: despite the Asian poses, I’m in Hollywood, not Japan.

Sebastiano Serafini and I are at Mr Black, the Tuesday night glam extravaganza organized by Luke Nero and hosted by Lenora Claire (the lady in red).

The gay club night is famous for the bare-butt servers! Seba was so angry that my head covered up the money shot.

It was Seba’s first night in LA, and he was treated right… Luke reserved us a VIP table, and we pirates got complimentary spiced rum.

The club, Bardot, has multiple rooms and nooks to explore. Sebastiano got hit on by a lot of boys…

Even though it was a Tuesday night, Mr Black’s dance-floor was packed and there was a long lineup outside.

Creatures of the night… what a hot mess they make.

The nightclub is known for its glitzy fashion. A dead animal scarf is not an uncommon sight.

A sip of a strong bellini. (Prosecco and peach puree, very popular in Italy.)

Mr Black takes place every Tuesday night at Bardot (Hollywood and Vine). Put on your glittery makeup and platforms, and come on down!

After, we went to the infamous 24-hour Fred 62 diner in Los Feliz for a delicious “La La Salad.” We snuggled into a booth with Lenora and Phyliss, who recently opened Pop Tart art gallery in LA (with works by Austin Young).
Want more photos and adventures from Mr. Black? I went last year with Yukiro and Clint Catalyst.
Would you venture into a club like this? What would you wear to be the life of the party?
