"We were stupefied that he died. I've never gotten over the shock of it. I’m still shocked he’s dead. I wake up sometimes and I’m amazed by that." John Waters.
A moment of silence for a hog princess, please! Baltimore’s finest export, the fabulous Divine (né Harris Glenn Milstead, 19 October 1945 – 7 March 1988) died on this day precisely 37 years ago aged just 42. John Waters’ toilet-mouthed muse and leading lady of choice, cult cinema actor / actress, drag monster, raspy-voiced hi-NRG disco chanteuse, hybrid of Jayne Mansfield and Godzilla designed to scare hippies, all-round freak diva extraordinaire and eternal role model for punks, queers and misfits everywhere - Divine is the mutha of us all! Do something extra filthy in his memory today! Pictured: austere portrait of Divine by the great Peter Hujar at the Metropolitan Museum, 1976.

It was pounding with torrential rain Sunday afternoon, but that didn’t stop Pal and I from making a religious pilgrimage to genuflect before THIS sacred artefact – the bright orange “octopus” dress worn onstage by drag terrorist Divine (1945-1988) when John Waters’ “hog princess” leading lady toured the United Kingdom’s dive bars and fleshpots in the 1980s! Divine’s dress is in the permanent collection of the Queer Britain museum in Kings Cross. Pictured: Pal wearing his Divine t-shirt in tribute!
A moment of silence for a hog princess, please! The fabulous Divine (formerly known as Harris Glenn Milstead, 19 October 1945 – 7 March 1988) died on this day precisely 33 years ago. Underground actor / actress, drag monster, hi-NRG disco chanteuse, all-round freak diva extraordinaire and eternal role model for punks, queers and misfits everywhere - Divine is the mutha of us all! Do something extra filthy in his memory today!
“Divine is a real man. And he’s just as charming out of character, walking down a New York street with his balding head and his favourite mechanic’s overalls or a Zandra Rhodes chiffon caftan. Like a platinum and exaggerated overweight Jayne Mansfield, he can wobble into the best parties in New York and Paris, break through glass barriers and charm everyone.”
/ André Leon Talley on Divine, from the 1984 book Mega Star /
Happy birthday to beloved freak diva / hog princess extraordinaire, the raunchy Queen Mutha of us all, the artist formerly known as Harris Glenn Milstead – Divine (19 October 1945 – 7 March 1988), born 75 years ago today! Do something extra filthy in his memory!
A moment of silence for a hog princess, please: the fabulous Divine (formerly known as Harris Glenn Milstead, 19 October 1945 – 7 March 1988) died on this day precisely 31 years ago.

Divine is the mutha of us all!
