Gay Pride in São Paulo
São Paulo´s gay pride parade is on Sunday with 2 million (!) people expected. Half a million tourists, mostly from elsewhere in Brazil have descended upon the city for a weekend of of non-stop partying. Even Cariocas, notorious for their dislike of SP have been showing up. It seems the whole of New York´s DJ scene has also decamped down here for the week. Last night Alex Lauterstein played Ultralounge. Tonight 30,000 (!) are expected for the e.joy party headlined by Deborah Cox with a DJ set by Tony Moran to follow. Also tonight Peter Rauhofer is playing The Week, São Paulo´s biggest gay club. Saturday night Junior Vasquez will DJ a party at Hotel Unique. The blogger Made In Brazil has very good coverage of the events.

Of course gay pride means fabulous drag queen pictures:




I shot these photos at yesterday´s street festival on Largo do Arouche in downtown São Paulo. The distant figure on the stage is a drag queen doing Tina Turner.

does spelling it out really prevent spam?
