If you've been to drag events at The Edge, DNA Lounge, the new Oasis, or enjoyed local drag productions of "The Golden Girls," you've seen the affable Eddie Bell as Cookie Dough.
Those more into nightlife culture know that Bell and his partner Michael Chu (DJ MC2) are two of the nicest people in the community. Bell was hospitalized in Puerto Vallarta (while in rehearsal for a touring production of "The Golden Girls"), and Bell's partner Chu has joined him, and the pair have returned to San Francisco, although with Bell still in a coma. A fund has been set up to help cover medical and travel expenses. Please donate online at: www.gofundme.com/kppdgo
And now, as Cookie's costar Pollo Del Mar has said, "The show must go on!" Cookie's Monster Show continues at The Edge each Thursday, and other events like last week's Mother are raising funds for the couple, proving that queens stick together in times of need.
