The Bad Romances of Bastian Korff

25 Sep 2012 / Comments Off / in Interviews/by Christopher Bryant

Bad Romances.

Bastian Korff talks cabaret, finding the emotion in the pop songs he covers, and the difference between British and German audiences.

“Bastian Korff has a splendid, powerful voice. In his stripped-down renditions of classic pop he finds the heart of the song, and what he sings is raw and decidedly real.”

Everybody Hates Madonna

13 Aug 2012 / Comments Off / in Features/by Little Bastard

The Sentencing of Madonna.

It seems these days that everybody hates Madonna, writes Little Bastard. But do the critics reveal more about their assumptions and prejudices than they do about her?

“It’s an artist’s raison d’être to challenge the political landscape and this has always been a part of Madonna’s work. As her platform gets bigger and the world slowly gets closer to hell in its hand basket, Madonna’s shows have become more intensely political.”

Madonna • MDNA Tour

19 Jul 2012 / Comments Off / in Music/by Nick Smith

[rating=4]
Madonna, July 17, 2012

Madonna’s MDNA tour. A controversial, unpredictable, original and brilliantly executed show.

“The show’s stopper is a thoroughly genuine and passionate reinterpretation of ‘Like A Virgin’, although the dramatic and loaded impact suffers at the hands of the Westminster’s noise abatement legislation. I must admit the show would be far better suited to a more intimate, indoor venue.”

Fantasea • Azealia Banks

14 Jul 2012 / Comments Off / in Music/by Little Bastard

[rating=4]
Released July 12, 2012
‘Fantasea’ has an authentic, underground, raw sound that separates it from the other American hiphop mix tapes flooding the internet.

“If you grew up with Lil’ Kim and Missy Elliot and have a taste for filthy, feisty Femcees then you should love Azealia Banks. She’s Nicki Minaj without the commercial kookiness.”

Born This Way

  • Nato in Questo Modo tattoo, Born this way
12 Mar 2012 / Comments Off / in Editorial/by Editor

Born this way video goes viral

Jessica Romani posted a video to YouTube of her father showing her brother Dylan his “born this way” tattoo. Wipeout Homophobia on Facebook posted the link and it went viral.

“This video humanises what is all too often dehumanised by bigotry. It shows a father expressing his love for his son; it shows what the ‘issues’ mean to real people.”

Featured Song – Day 19

19 Feb 2012 / Comments Off / in LGBT History Month/by Readers Wifes

Born This Way, Carl Bean.

The Readers Wifes ninetheenth choice of song with LGBT significance: Born This Way, Carl Bean. For 2012 LGBT History Month.

“I’m happy, I’m carefree and I’m gay… I was born this way”. If Gaga echoed these exact same sentiments recently, ageing Disco heads will remember it as a late-‘70s Lib anthem.

An Interview with Charlie Hides

01 Feb 2012 / Comments Off / in Interviews/by Christopher Bryant

Charlie Hides talks Madonna, Lady Gaga and Cher

The multi-talented Charlie Hides tells the story behind his hit YouTube channel and the immensely popular series ‘Madonna’s Lady Gaga Nightmare’.

I’ve got a very dark sense of humour. It’s very politically incorrect. My live show is completely different from what I do on YouTube.

About Polari Magazine

Polari Magazine is an LGBT arts and culture magazine that explores the subculture by looking at what is important to the people who are in it. It’s about the lives we lead, not the lifestyles we’re supposed to lead.

Its content is informed & insightful, and features a diverse range of writers from every section of the community. Its intent is to help LGBT readers learn about their own heritage and to sustain a link between the present and the past.

Polari is designed to nurture the idea of community, whether that be social and political, or artistic and creative. It is your magazine, whether you want to read it, or whether you want to get involved in it, if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, or queer.

Polari Magazine is all these: it's a gay online magazine; it's a gay and lesbian online magazine; it's an LGBT arts and culture magazine. Ultimately, it is a queer magazine.
