DIRT WOMAN FOR MAYOR!

Far more interesting than the tawdry presidential race, "Dirt Woman" (pictured), has thrown it's filth-encrusted hat into the race for mayor of Richmond, VA. Thanks to Rob for sending this link my way. Also, big thanks to Lance for digging up these incredible pix!



I first encountered the very entertainig Dirt on video in the 80's. The Now Explosion was a genius Atlanta band which included Lahoma Van Zandt, Larry Tee and go-go dancers RuPaul, Lurleen Wallace and myself. When the band toured Richmond, they interviewed Dirt, a transient tranny fixture on the streets of Richmond. Though her accent is so strong that her words are barely intelligible, they are delivered with an almost righteous authoritativenss, as the interviewer, bandmate Lizette Quatro-Christian, quizzes Dirt Woman on her name, her past, etc. It's been 15 years since I've viewed this tape, but how could I forget how this queen earned her di-stink-tive nickname? Quoting from memory, Dirt explains proudly that once when the police apprehended her, "I shit in the back of they squad car and so they don't pick me up no more." We all have those pivotal, life-changing moments in our lives, don't we?

Enough Mudslinging, Dirtwoman for Mayor by Chris Dovi

With Mayor L. Douglas Wilder’s meat-cleaver approach to political compromise, many of the city’s pundits — and citizens — are calling for a change. A change to someone who can rise above the mudslinging and dirty business.

Enter: Dirtwoman.




“My platform is to clean Richmond up and help the School Board, and help the police out,” says Dirtwoman, aka Donnie Corker, who may be Richmond’s best known transvestite-with-a-heart.

I'm so glad you posted this Bunny. The pics you have up here are from a calendar Dirt did a few years ago. I wish the heck I could find the audio clips of his mother Mae that were up for a while after she passed away a couple years back, been goggling all morning but no luck. Suffice to say, the apple didn't fall far from the tree. I'll tell you what, Dirt would definitely do a better job than Doug Wilder is at this point. And according to the article promises to "dress in drag every day". So really how could we go wrong. He would have to fit his duties into his bingo schedule tho, cause he's at those suckers like 5 times a week.

I lived in Richmond during Art School in the early 90s. I once saw Dirt Woman Jello-Wrestle the shock-rock band Gwar! Thanks for the 411 on his/her political aspirations...it will certainly be fun to watch the campaign safely from DC! - Lance - Washington, DC

This{Donnie Corker}aka Dirt Woman for mayor stuff is all lies. I personally know the brother{Charles Corker}, of the {LATE} Donnie"Dirt Woman" Corker. Donnie passed away in recent years, and I READ the obituary in the local Richmond newspaper. Again, its ALL BULL$HIT!
