saw Dame Edna tonight
 

Thought it might be gay - no pun intended - but it was some pretty funny shit.

Anyone else ever see him/her?

the people that have seen her are long dead.

haha

S-he basically makes fun of people in the audience - especially old people.

I can't stand that bitch.

it's funnier than people think from just looking at "her" thats for sure.

Seen her on TV, never live.. doesn't look like she'd be very funny

She is really a he

Barry Humphries is the actor's name and he has a number of great characters besides Dame Edna.

I agree, funny shit. :thumbsup

He is even funnier when not restricted to "comply" for TV audiences! :)

never thought he was funny when I used to see the PBS specials but once I saw the character on the BBC (less censorship) I got it. His other characters are good too.

That's what I thought is pretty dirty and offensive - which makes it funny.
