The Wonder Festival is a semiannual (Feb, Aug) event, whose main focus is to display and sell “garage kits“, which are sculptures that usually replicate anime and game characters, but also popular mecha/sci-fi characters and creatures.

Recently resurfaced pics of 50 Shades of Grey star Jamie Dornan from his sun-dappled youth after the jump – AND YOU’RE GOING TO FALL OVER IN A DEAD FAINT, he’s THAT attractive. These vaguely erotic, semi-nude pics from the 2003 Abercrombie & Fitch catalogue, shot by Bruce Weber, show just how much he’s changed over the past decade. And yes, that’s Malin Akerman right next to him. Also included, some 2004 lumbersexual shots from photographer Jimmy Backius.

The post Come One! Come all! THIS MONDAY “Big Freedia: Twerk of Art” at the World of Wonder Storefront Gallery! appeared first on World of Wonder.

What sounds like every man’s dream became one teen’s nightmare. Last October, an unidentified Florida boy went to doctors complaining of a penis “too large for intercourse,” saying he was also unable to play sports or even wear most clothing without his massive dong showing through the fabric. Poor guy. Although it was only 7 inches long, he had a circumference of 10 inches, so his penis was about the size as an average mayonnaise jar.

Dr. Rafael Carrion, the urologist who treated the teen, is quoted as saying: “There comes a time in every urologist’s career that a patient makes a request so rare and impossible to comprehend that all training breaks down and leaves the physician speechless”

“His penis had inflated like a balloon,” he said after inspecting it, “Although it was a generous length,its girth was just massive, especially around the middle.”

From HuffPo:

The shape and massive size of the penis was the result of the teen’s sickle cell anemia. Irregular blood cells would block penile blood vessels and lead to swelling and priapism — a long-lasting and painful erection. This had happened three times since the boy was 10, which “progressively led” to a deformed penis, according to the Journal.

Carrion said he couldn’t find any precedent for penis reduction surgery. His team ended up opting to slice along the patient’s circumcision scar, unwrap the skin, and then remove chunks of tissue from each side.

He added that the teen is “very satisfied” with his new penis, which is still “generous” in size but is now more standard in appearance.

After what’s being called the “world’s first” penis reduction surgery, doctors were able to make it symmetrical.

Not sure what’s happening in the first pic, above, so I’d appreciate it if they released actual photos of the phallus in question.

Since he was 10, the teen, who has a history of sickle cell disease, had three episodes of priapism — a medical condition in which the penis stays erect for hours — that “progressively” led to his penis deformity, surgeons said in the report.

Former O-Town heartthrob Ashley Parker Angel – SO BIG in the early aughts, my GOD – seems to be in peak physical condition these days, and he wants his Instagram fans to know it. Scroll through his feed and you’ll see nothing but nothing but rippling muscles, bulging panties, barely concealed pubes, and miles upon miles of tanned manflesh. It’s UH. MAY. ZING. And the peen prints. Have I mentioned the peen prints, yet? WOW. You go, Ashley. Let’s hope this sort of unbridled narcism and charitable attention to your gay fans leads to a Nick Jonas-like comeback.

What do you get when you mash up Comic-Con, BeautyCon, and Hello Kitty Con? RuPaul’s DragCon, of course. It’s the first ever convention that celebrates “the art of drag, queer culture and self-expression for all” and it will launch May 16-17 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. RuPaul is excited:

“I am thrilled to bring this one-of-a-kind event to Los Angeles. DragCon is not just a showcase for the most talented drag queens in the world. It’s a chance for all lovers of drag culture – young and old, gay and straight – to come together, to inspire each other, and to let their freak flags fly high.”

RuPaul’s DragCon will kick off the Gay Pride season with a fierce new twist. DragCon creators expect several thousand attendees to experience a glittering weekend with the largest ever gathering of drag queens and gay icons. The convention will feature over 100 vendors and exhibitors, panel discussions, screenings, autographs, and photo opportunities.

Spearheaded by RuPaul and World of Wonder, RuPaul’s DragCon will give a platform for fans – gay and straight – to meet and interact with world famous drag queens and other celebrity guests in a fan friendly environment. DragCon will include a wide range of programming:

• “Everything You Wanted to Know about Tucking but Were Afraid to Ask,”
• “Lady MacBeth to Lady Gaga: Drag in the Mainstream”
• “Drag King Makeovers”
• “A Drag Revolution: Stonewall Riots”
• “Padding 101: Dude, Where’s My Mattress?”
• “Weaves, Waffles, and Wig Water”

There will also be Q&A sessions with the queens themselves, as well as fashion, make-up and styling workshops (“She-crets of a Drag Queen”) for men and women. Attendees can expect to shop the floor for shoes, apparel, art and many other fabulous products.

World of Wonder’s Fenton Bailey attended the world premiere Sundance screening of the new HBO documentary Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood, and the Prison of Belief and gave us his take afterward here:

“If you suspected all along that Scientology is an evil pernicious religion, this film reaffirms that and adds plenty of added juicy details. I found especially fascinating how Scientology battled and actually beat the IRS, winning covetted tax exempt status as a religious organization. The film seemed to imply that Scientology was not a religion, but in terms of its greed, cruelty and delusional nonsense it seems to behave very much like one, exacting a terrible human price. Many reviews have already commended the testimony of the high-level defectors, but almost stealing the show for me was the clear-eyed testimony of Hollywood director Paul Haggis who by unsparingly sharing his shame gave us a step by beguiling step how the road to hell is paved with good intentions. It’s a tour de force and an especially brave one by director Alex Gibney because as the film makes chillingly clear the one thing they do not believe in is turning the other cheek. Thank goodness for HBO, Sheila Nevins and the army of 160 lawyers they have retained.”

Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief premieres March 29 on HBO. Watch.

San Francisco based pop artist Jason Mecier creates outrageous 3-D mosaic portraits of treasured pop culture icons. You’ve seen his Ru, his Lisa Vanderpump, his Justin Timberlake, and his Honey Boo-Boo, of course – all gorgeously rendered from candy and jewelry and common household objects. Now he’s done an absolutely uncanny portrait of Big Freedia that he’ll be showing EXCLUSIVELY at the World of Wonder Storefront Gallery for our “Big Freedia: Twerk of Art” exhibit. (SPOILER ALERT: It’s a MATTRESS!)

“Big Freedia: Twerk of Art” will also feature works by & inspired by the New Orleans Bounce SENSATION Big Freedia in honor of the 3rd season premiere of Big Freedia: Queen of Bounce on Fuse.

“We’re all going to fucking DIE!” gasped international starlet and RuPaul’s Battle of the Seasons MC, Michelle Visage, when I spoke to her on the phone just moments ago. Her tour bus – carrying THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS DRAG QUEENS – broke down earlier this afternoon in Angola, Indiana, en route to Cleveland, Ohio, where they were to perform at a sold-out concert venue. She muttered something about a ball bearing getting stuck in a wheel, but frankly, her voice was weak, and it trailed off before she could finish the sentence.

Visage, and the rest of the girls (including Raja, Alaska, BenDeLaCreme, Ivy Winters, Jinkx Monsoon, Manila Luzon, and Sharon Needles) are currently huddled together on the bus, in a closed garage, that is SLOWLY FILLING UP WITH CARBON MINOXIDE! It’s been SEVEN HOURS, so it’s only a matter of time before the oxygen runs out and THEY ALL DIE!

“Michelle! Michelle!” I screamed. “If you don’t make it… what do you want people to remember you for?”

Moments passed. Too many moments. I thought she had already perished. Finally she cleared her throat and whispered: “Eyeliner…”

“Yes? And…?”

“…tits…. and CLASS!”

She then handed the phone to Alaska, who bravely gave the following statement: “I would gladly die for art. It would be an honor and a privilege to die in such splendid company.”

And then the phone went dead.

UPDATE:

Playhouse Square in Cleveland, Ohio, has announced that Friday night’s performance of RuPaul’s Drag Race Tour has been postponed as the tour bus carrying DRAG ROYALTY is broken down in Angola, Ind., with no chance of arriving in time for the 9 p.m. curtain.

Spider Martin – Dr. King Leads The March Along With James Forman Of SNCC And Reverend Jessie Douglas Around The State Capitol In Montgomery, March 25, 1965

Charles Moore, Martin Luther King Jr. Addressing A Meeting Of The Montgomery Improvement Association, Which Was Founded In 1955 To Organize The Bus Boycott. A Year Later, The Bus System Was Integrated, 1958

“Selma March 1965” features over 150 photographs depicting the three Selma-to-Montgomery marches that rocked the nation and galvanized the Civil Rights Movement in 1965. Gallerist Stephen Kasher says:

“Never before in New York or any other gallery has the work of photographers James Barker, Spider Martin and Charles Moore been brought together like this. By combining their work, the exhibition captures in a new way the angst, courage and chaos of this seminal moment in American history.”

As the Academy Award nominated film illustrates, on March 7th, 1965, Alabama state troopers and a local posse attacked civil rights demonstrators in Selma, stopping a planned peaceful march to the state capitol in Montgomery, wounding many innocent marchers. Filmed and photographed, “Bloody Sunday” instantly caused nationwide outrage. Days later, another march, led by the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., was turned back. A third, ultimately successful march left Selma on March 21, arriving in Montgomery five days later. By then, President Lyndon B. Johnson, pushed by Dr. King and the horrific images of brutality captured by Martin, Moore and others, had introduced the Voting Rights Act to Congress, which became law later that year.

“Together the images on display present a complex, compelling tableau that is both monumental and intimate, brave and vulnerable. The exhibit is inspiring, but also a chilling reminder that those who fight for social justice do at great risk, with no guarantee that their efforts will be successful – though sometimes they are, if only partially.” –Steven Kasher

“Selma March 1965″ commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Selma marches as well as the Voting Rights Act they catalyzed. It is the 30th public exhibition that Kasher has organized of photography of the Civil Rights Movement. The exhibition opens at Steven Kasher Gallery Thursday, March 5th, 6–8 PM and runs through April 18th, 2015. It will be attended by James Barker, Tracy Martin and Michelle Moore Peel.
