Lurid Digs: A Touch of La Scala

John Calendo: Madame Callas slept here. Madame Callas still sleeps here.

School of Bobby Trendy is how I would describe this bedroom. Leather, as we know, is the lifestyle choice of the drama queen — the queen whose bedroom (cum dungeon, of course) must ever have a hint of the canopy and that certain touch of La Scala, however heavy handed. The gilt frames, the vermilion velvets, the embroidered pillows in delicate fabrics — this giddy embrace of embalmed kitsch brings to mind nothing less than the Liberace Museum in Las Vegas.

Off to the side and just out of frame one imagines a bedside sling, complete with bejeweled manacles and swan-neck supports festooned with cherubim and rose garlands. Oh how those manacles glitter with not quite real rubies, like brilliant drops of blood, when things get into full swing.

And so this brave soul offers himself to the worldwide web:
Str8-Acting Looking for Str8-Acting Only: Wanted — Slave, to worship his boots, ingest his bodily fluids and sing a chaste Mimi to his mean Musetta.

More gay amateur interior design critiques.
YES! — More Lurid Digs…right this way.
