Diva Dweller Spotlight | Gary

Diva Dweller Wall of Fame – Gary Gary was introduced to Team Diva at the housewarming/remodel party of another lovely Diva Dweller and friend Stefanie. Upon meeting, we instantly realized this guy was smart, fun, witty, and above all else a super nice guy. Divaland is full of good peeps just like him so it was fate that our world came together. Gary was living on Capitol Hill for a long time and loving hill life. He knew this was an area of the city he wanted to live in or be close to. Gary started working with another agent with no success. He got to a point where all signs directed him to Team Diva. He set up a meeting with us and we hit the streets. Gary was a blast to look at condos with. Working together was awesome as we have similar tastes so we were looking at all of… Read More »

Rocky’s Pride Starts Now

Pride On The Hill

Pride starts now. The Divas asked me what my plans were this weekend and after naming off no less than twenty different events I realized I needed to narrow my activities down a bit. I have learned one of the keys to a successful pride is not to over do it. So not including a few private house parties, here are the main events I plan to attend this weekend. Friday  Because I had so much fun at last pride’s White Party I made this the first stop on Friday night. This year’s party is hosted by one of Seattle’s top Drag Queens, Atasha Manilla. Headlining the party is Club Queen Dev and DJ Von Kiss. The next stop of the night is The Melrose Market where I’m letting loose all night long at RA- Pride Edition, hosted by Verotica Prudmoore. If this is like any of her past events it’s gonna be one… Read More »

Maya Soto and the Warrior Princesses | Next Week

Last December, Team Diva sponsored the NEXT Fest NW kickoff party for Velocity Dance Center. This really was one of the most fun events we have hosted and was full to the brim with incredible pieces by up-and-coming performance artists. Although all of the performances were top notch, one of our favorites of the evening was most certainly the Warrior Princesses, led by Maya Soto. For those of you that were there, you will remember these girls took out all the stops, dancing beautifully in frilly white gowns and dripping in fake blood. One of the girls even performed with a broken foot – talk about warrior princess! Well lucky for us, this performance at NEXT Fest was only a sneak peek at the full piece, Gathering Bones. The full piece will be debuting at Velocity for one weekend only in May, so the time has come to start snatching up… Read More »

Velocity is Burning | Money Raised + a Bird of a Time

The Divas want to send out a huge thanks to all of you who came out to support Velocity Dance Center at the Next Fest NW kickoff last Thursday! The whole event was pure FIRE. We met some fabulous new friends. We watched our fellow Leo, Robbie Turner, take control of the limelight and bring out all of our inner Divas. We saw some break-taking performances by Velocity birds and warrior princesses. We had chocolate bon bons melting in our mouths as Miss Kitty Baby shimmied all around the floor. We even had a last minute Kiki with Miss DonnaTella Howe. By the end of the night, everyone at the Cabaret was stunned. Not only did the event bring together a wild group of performers and art junkies, but it also racked up funds to continue Velocity’s work in the dance community. By the end of the evening, Velocity Is Burning! had raised… Read More »
