John Waters believes that humor is the key to absolutely everything: “I think anybody should be able to say what they want, I believe in the worst kind of end of it...'
. Waiting outside his arts and crafts style house in leafy Baltimore, I tried to pinpoint when this cult creator entered my sphere. It’s funny when you can’t remember a time when you didn’t have the John Waters filth somewhere in your mind. I was a young lad when I first encountered— growing up in South Africa in the ‘90s, it was that perfect meld of racial integration and camp, that a gay boy like me could just eat up.
What John Waters has done is reveal to us exactly who we are. Whether we like it or not. Because guess what, “bad taste is universal” as Waters boasts. People who find him “distasteful” or even “risque” –- probably don’t realize and appreciate that he’s enlightening us to all our absurdity, fuckedupness and cruelty. In “Liarmouth” our anti-hero and leading dame, Marsha Sprinkle, is not only a scammer, but she’s also smart, learning about love, and –- fuck it –- living The American Dream.
To me, the magic of “Dreamlanders” is that they represent all of us — your deepest kink, your darkest wantonness, your foulest, and always, your sweetest. When you watch Waters you sense that he’s just revealing your hand — he’s not telling you anything new, he is simply creatively framing your humanity. He sneaks a sliver of the zeitgeist down your throat, and before you know it, you’re in on the joke.
Waters is this person, intriguing, ruminant and honest, hilarious but forthright. I barely know the man but I felt like his raw truth was always part of our conversation, so it’s only natural to ask things that intrigue and fascinate. I mean, I was wondering about his sex life . I remind Waters that in his memoir,, he does mention that “assholes are not for fucking”, and he responds with a “certainly at 76 I think…”I’m a person who thinks you should do it all, well almost everything .
As Waters points out, Biden might just be senile, and that’s fine, as he’ll send a check for $200,000 to all of us. But in all seriousness, he doesn’t think Trump will win again and he does wish Michelle Obama would run, as he thinks she could win. “The smartest doesn’t matter in politics, to win you need to tap into humor, as that appeals across the board.” So I quietly started thinking about Amy Klobuchar for 2024.
