    Please explain why Dame Edna is famous?



    Why do people think this is funny?
    I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
    I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

        Cause Tranny is a very popular niche.

          It's not a tranny though, just a cross dresser comedian.

            I basically grew up with him. Not literally, but in the 80's and 90's he was all over the TV in the UK. the Dame Edna Experience I think it was called.

            He is basically a very clever comedian. In interviews he is histerical and that's when he/she truely shines. We didn't get so much of Sir Les. I dont know whether that says something about the Brits loving cross dressers though

            Man oh man, I'm on a role with these posts.

              Vital Stats:
              Birth Name:
              Born: February 17, 1934
              Birth Place: Melbourne, Australia
              Nationality: Australian

              Bio:
              At one time hailed as the strongest proponent of Dada in Australia, the multi-talented Barry Humphries has excelled as a character actor in Europe and Australia and has become one of the best loved landscape painters Down Under, but his fame rests on the Melbourne housewife he first created in connection with the Olympic Games back in 1956. Since then, Dame Edith Everage has commandeered the actor's life, blooming into an international phenomenon, a wonderful parody of celebrity and self-obsession.

                    I haven't seen Dame Edna for ages - but back in the 80's and 90's he/she was immensely funny.

                        because it is a great characterization of a certain group of people. Think about the way the Chruch Lady character Dana Carvy did years ago spoofed a type of person. That said, I think he does better characters.

                        He did a funny comercial here last year where he talked about dreaming of the day he could burn a purple wig.
