triple crown pageant winners
What a magical night last night! Can it be described any other way?
It seemed that the entire Providence area GLTBQ community turned up last night at Lupo’s to watch the crowning of Mr./Miss Gay/Ms. Lesbian 2009. It was a serious who’s who (and who’s doing who in where with what) that literally had our head spinning the whole night. Lupo’s looked ritzy and fabulous, everyone looked glamorous under more costume jewelry than you can shake a bottle of lube at (that came later), and it felt like — if just for a few minutes — that we all stopped being the drunken horny messes that we’ve become accustomed to, and took a step back for a look at how marvelous and proud we all are.
But enough about that.
Let’s get to the winners!
Miss Gay Rhode Island 2009: Divine Lee Sei
We thought she was just lovely throughout the entire show. Divine has Aunty Anita for a drag mother, and it showed in her make-up and costumes as she hula-danced around on stage in a grass skirt and full-on head dress. It wasn’t the sexiest thing we’ve ever seen, but it sure was different and totally new for Rhode Island; in other words, we loved it! If this is the kind of showy wackiness we’re going to see in the future from Miss Divine, we’re sold! And she doesn’t have a lisp!
Mr. Gay Rhode Island 2009: Scotty “2″ Hotty
All we can say is, well, he was the best candidate. Which unfortunately isn’t saying much. We’ve met Scott several times over the years, and never fail to be a little creeped out by the experience. Maybe it’s the crazy-eyes? Maybe it’s the fur coats he wears to the bars. Maybe it’s his name, which seems to take his new title down a notch (as if the Mr. Gay RI title had been in good condition when he won it), who really knows? We’re relieved to have someone like Scotty to have won, because we would have felt kind of bad making fun of Divine Lee.
Ms. Lesbian Rhode Island 2009: Sarah Howes
While we’re absolutely sick to our stomachs over Sarah Beyers not winning the title as a transgendered woman (we’ll get to that later), our new Miss Lesbian wasn’t the most inappropriate choice either. She started folk-singing with a guitar for christ’s sake, something that gays recognize to be exclusively lesbian activity. However, she was nice and sweet and has legs for days — so we’ll take her.
COMING UP: Enough of the winners, the real juice is in the losers! (excuse us, non-winners)

Aunty Anita
This nite was an absolute mess…goes to show why people don’t really support pride..they couldn’t get this shit started on time..they hold it in a place that has no seating unless you preorder a table ! WTF is that! Basically ur not good enough to sit unless u give us money ! LOL And they should have eliminated Mr Gay for lack of talent ! Sarah Beyers needs to decide if she’s a gay boy or str8 boy before she runs for Ms Lesbian..if you’re gonna be a girl, hunny talk like one!
The whole Triple Crown Pageant is a f**kin’ joke! Bunch of pretentious idiots who think they’re doing society a favor by putting on this ridiculous joke of a self-serving contest each year! GLBT folks in other states laugh at the RI gay community over this. Get a friggin’ life and stop making the local gay community look so stupid and immature!
Divine will do a great job. You could visually see the hunger in her eyes, and nobody wanted that title more than she did. Sarah Howes is such an elegant and fabulous creature, she will be great also. Pimp Hustla in the suit that looked like it was made out of a cheap tablecloth? No comment.
