Lisa Loungin off set 3

You may very well ask yourself, what Lisa is doing collaborating with the dark side. But this was a special exception and one of those mysterious times where, enemies work together towards a common goal..

 

 

I was persuaded to participate in a campagne against discrimination here in Denmark, a nation wide campagne that will bring a poster of me (Yes, yours truly) up at busstops around the great nation of Denmark. Further more I along with many others, will be posted at the central square in Copenhagen, on a LOOOONG poster, holding hands, making a chain ”against discrimination”. - I, you see, can stand up for that, I´m cool with being a part of that chain. That is why I said. ”Yes”

 

 

I was up early and was behind schedule already soon after. I think that, when you are not a real girl, dressing up, putting on make up etc. take TWICE the time as ”ordinary” women. Yet, I am getting there, getting better and quicker. I will get it in time. But time was running out and I left forgetting only the little things, that doesn't really matter.

 

 

I meet with my sweet man at central Nørrebro and strolled through the "worst" part of town (to be a T-girl), so much at ease with my self, as I have never been before. Going out, has become almost.. ”normal”... but in relation to how I simply LOVE it, not so normal AT ALL :o)The sun was shining with only few clouds on the sky. We arrived at the studio, where we meet with all the others participating in the project. Needless to say, the people there where ALL cool as the North pole. I shoot some pictures upstairs in the ”lounge” while waiting for my turn to be shoot (on camera that is.)

 

 

Women, find me extra ordinary interesting lately. It is VERY evident to me, that there has been a ”change” in how girls and women perceive me. That change has come as a result of me ”getting better”. I had the BIGGEST compliment EVER to day. As the 3 (very young) girls who was part of the ”camera team”, coordinating with people, food and all the practical stuff, sat and talked to me and one said. "Seriously” she said ”If I passed you on the street, I am quite sure I would NOT notice, you where a guy.” The other 2 girls nodded in agreement with very serious expressions, one saying. ”I can´t imagine I would either. Unless I REALLY looked at you, if you talked to me or something.” - They didn't say it as a compliment, but just as an observation. - MY GOD I thought to my self, I AM getting seriously good!

 

 

Going on a studioset, there is always a girl running around powdering people of before shooting. I thought to my self that it might be VERY well for me to get a ”top cover make over”, before going before the HIGH POWER lights that was on that set. I sat down in the chair in the makeup room, she looked critically at me for 2 seconds and said. ”You look just fine, there is nothing I want to do with you. Do you mind if I just powder the reflective spots?” Which I of cause didn´t! I did touch up on my lipstick. I showed her the one I was using and the one she suggested was so close in colour, we smiled to eachother. DAMN I'm good, I actually know what I am doing!? (But I DID have her write down the lipstick SHE suggested, as I did use that one and it was just that tiny bit better in colour and ESPECIALLY wear I can TELL you that – Guerlain Lipstick B64 ”Le Brilliant” - But don't necessarily go there if you are white of skin colour)

 

 

At the set arrived a STAR. The united states may have their Snoop Dog and though we LOVE Snoop in Denmark (and he is ALWAYS welcome back) we have our very own rap star and he is called ”MC Clemens”. There he was smiling, though with the hangover that comes with ”living the life” and he is a ”cool dude” make no mistake. My kind' a guy and in the ”human chain” I was to hold him in one hand and my handsome man in the other. Lets just say, you shall hear no complaints from Lisa, absolutely no objections what so ever, not even a tiny ”peep”.

 

 

”To be honest... I´m.. kind'a like.. a closet fan of you!” I admitted, using the force. ”Can I have a picture taken with you?” I asked and drew so much energy from the force, the light flickered slightly in the studio. ”SURE!” he said smiling BIG TIME! :o) We took a picture and then HE SAID mind you, it´s was NOT me. - He said quote: ”Hey, we can´t have that. We need another shoot with me doing the ”L” for Lisa.” and there you have it! - The second picture of me and MC Clemens him self, doing the ”Lisa”... - Well lets just say, I felt the day started pretty good.

 

 

After shooting I went along with Jacob to the ”office” of warehouse 9. - You probably being from half around the world, of cause would have no idea what Warehouse 9 is. To make a long story short, it is the only real surviving T-girl place in Denmark, with an environment that embraces all the facets of T-girl life. None other than warehouse 9, can rightfully claim to feel the beat of the heart of T-girls in Denmark. Warehouse 9 is where all T-girls are not only welcome, but instinctively feel at home. It is governed by some serious cracy ass T-girls, but just as crazy as they are, their hearts know no evil and embraces every little tiny (and preferably crazy) creature on earth, ESPECIALLY including T-girls, of any gender and of any opinion.

 

 

I am used to meeting the persons behind Warehouse 9 at the ”events” that they arrange, many mainly for T-girls. It was fun to meet them in the ”daily life”, as I have always wondered how they ”were”. I meet miss Fish, who is not only a driving force behind Warehouse 9, but also a great artist, political activist and one of the worlds few good people. She is always together with ”the gentleman”, he is one of a kind, always joyful in a contaminating degree that goes with his smile. I also meet a lot of other people I had not seen before, and more than half was ”T-people” of both sexes I should add.

 

 

I needed to buy some earphones for my Mp3, but obviously Jacob like to go shopping :o) So we just walked around the central city for hours and hours. Walking up ”strøget” I caught this guy on video. Now check THAT out!!! What he is doing is actually VERY VERY close to the movements of Tai Chi Chuan. VERY interesting considering, one of the preliminary exercises to Tai Chi Chuan is holding little bowls of water in both hands, while making yin yang circles with both hands at the same time, not spilling a drop. (much more easy said than done, especially making it look ”gracefully”.. but that very same ”grace”, which in reality is excess control, is very much in deed, what we witness here)

 

 

We found an ”Italian fair" sort of thing, where the most delicate things from Itali was sold. We went through it systematically, tasting little bits of everything. Which was VERY tasty and very cozy :o)

 

 

I was amazed. Just walking through the city Jacob meet 4 different groups of people he knew (being doormand is a most social position it would seem) among which was a bicycle taxi driver who drove us through the city to a good (but a bit expensive) burgerbar. ”No no, you don´t have to pay.” we were told by the bicycle driver. ”That was pretty cool”, I found myself thinking. Being driven through town like a princess, in an open carriage and for free :o)

 

 

My flats didn't survive the walking around and around (had I had stilettos on to day, I would have died, even had it been my most favourite) but it is only fair to say I got them cheap and they actually was very old. But a sign it was time to call it a day.

 

 

Unfortunately, I am not allowed to show pictures from ”within the set” before the campaign is released. So the pictures to day is all ”off set” - But do you think that perhaps maybe, I will post pictures in here on Flickr, that is thrown in the face of all the danish public, with my own free ”slogan” written underneath?

 

 

Well... if you say ”YES!”

 

 

Then perhaps you already, know me pretty well :o)
