Alexander Skarsgård - The Diary of A Teenage Girl Premiere, San Francisco, 3 Aug '15. alexanderskarsgard_archive Ig (x)
"💛✨💛10 years ago on this day (August 3, 2015) the San Francisco premiere of ‘The Diary of a Teenage Girl’ was held at the Castro Theatre.
From a story by @variety: The 6-foot-4 Swedish actor revealed that he enjoys dressing in drag so much that he has own drag name. “It’s Lady Libido Lushbody,” Skarsgard, 38, said at the Cinema Society hosted screening.. “It’s a good name!”
[Alexander Skarsgård ] explained that he went drag for the night to celebrate “The Diary of a Teenage Girl’s” special friends & family screening & party held at the Castro Theatre hosted by the local drag queens who worked as part of the film’s crew. [Brian Benson @cousin_wonderlette was the first AD.] The movie was shot in San Francisco in just 24 days with a budget of a little over $1 million. “I got really excited about the party & wanted to come in drag & be part of the fun,” said Skarsgard. “I didn’t want to be excluded & be in a stupid suit. They were kind enough to get me the outfit and the hair. It took about four hours to get dolled up.”
Amie Sarazan @amiesarazan made his gold dress and it was auctioned for charity in 2021 to help save @theoasissf (where they had the after party). The dress was inspired by Farrah Fawcett’s 1978 Oscars gown by Stephen Burrows. His wig was by @beckymotorlodge and his makeup by mercedez_munro.
📸 Alex’s “drag mom” was Lonnie Haley (aka Mercedez Munro) shared photos as well as Christine Yuan for Caviar, Steve Rhodes and Steven Underhill. My edit. The song is “Old but Gold (Woman) from AF Records."
