Electric performer and multimedia thinker, CELESTE, takes us to the streets for a colorful and out-of-this-world edition of Edible Moments. The devilish, unmistakable diva dishes kisses and cool calm against some of Buds’ most tantalizing cross-examinations.
“I would love to get stoned with the iconic Charo.”
Favorite musicians right now?
As of now, I’ve been hooked on Blue Hawaii, Tinashe, Roisin Murphy and serpentwithfeet.
Who is your dream person to get stoned with and why?
I would love to get stoned with the iconic CHARO — I feel we would have a blast riding round LA. I’d probably die from laughter.
Describe your first kiss?
I think my first kiss was actually on a Ferris wheel at a fair. I was in elementary school. It was with one of my friends at the time; her name was Thelma. We got off the wheel and never spoke about it ever again.
Favorite drag queen?
My favorite drag queen/performer would have to be Chiquitita, based out of NYC. She’s quite the force despite her young age and her performances drip with emotion and a sensuality that is unforgettable. Also, her makeup is unparalleled!
Mushrooms or LSD? Who’s gayer?
Mushrooms all the way and they are definitely gayer than LSD!
Flowers or edibles?
