Hallowe’en drag party at millionaire professor James Stewart’s mansion was crazy

Damn, that was one hot Hallowe’en drag party. I ended up being the most conservatively dressed person there. I should have known that an all-gay-Asian Hallowe’en drag party would end up hoochier than I planned for.

The party was at James Stewart’s newly built $35-million-dollar mansion. The house was just absolutely breathtaking with a built-in pool and a view to match. There was a full catering staff of half-naked men (and sailors) along with a full camera crew to take photos and film video of our entrances and the rest of the party.

Speaking of entrances, we all had to make a public entrance that was being filmed for a DVD down a winding staircase. I wish I had been more prepared, as my entrance ended up being kind of tame in comparison. Next year, I’ve gotta step up my hoochiness for sure and add some drama to the entrance.

My choice for best entrance, best costume, and best hottie she-male was for Jason Ho dressing up as Chun Li from Street Fighter (which is now suddenly relevant again as Street Fighter IV will be hitting store shelves soon). Jason didn’t end up winning the award at the end of the night, but I think he really deserved it.

Costume hunting to transform into Gossip Girls’ Blair Waldorf for Hallowe’en

Today was costume shopping day. Hallowe’en is right around the corner, and I’m excited to be dressing up for the first time in years. I’ve been invited to a drag party at some rich guy’s mansion. For those who don’t know, a drag party is a party in which all guests have to dress up as the opposite sex.

I just found out that the party is going to be mainly young Asian boys dressing up as girls, other than the party’s host of course. It sounds a little strange when I put it that way, but I am not going to pass up an opportunity to party with most of Toronto’s Asian hotties, whether they’re dressed as women or not.

With the help of Jason Ho, I was able to find the perfect brown-haired wig. Once the wig was found, I decided on my costume: Gossip Girl, specifically Blair “B” Waldorf (see photo below). Her signature look is preppy New Yorker accessorized with the back-in-style headband, which I still need to shop for.

I’ll be blogging straight from the party on Friday night with photos.
