The Dirty Bitches: From My Point Of View
Posted in Bars in Puerto Vallarta, Puerto Vallarta - Places to go! on 01/26/2010 04:50 pm by adminby Frank Sekercak
The Dirty Bitches name was conceived by one of the drag queens, Diva about 8 years ago. Throughout those 8 years, there have been a series of Dirty Bitches. Hoping not to omit any of them thus far, there was Ida Slapter, Cassandra, Priscilla and now the current Dirty Bitches which include Angelica, Jaqueline, Diva and Marlen.
Angelica has been doing drag for awhile now. She is a former Miss Paco Paco, and is the sultry, sexy portion of the Dirty Bitches. Angelica makes a lot of her outfits and does many impressions, including Cher, Mariah Carey and Diana Ross.
Jaqueline also is a former Miss Paco Paco. Jaqueline entered the Miss Paco Paco pageant with seasoned drag queens and took the title that year. She is known for her 10 million dollar legs, with a face and body to match. Among her triumphs are tributes to Tina Turner, Shania Twain and Whitney Houston.
Diva has been with the Dirty Bitches the longest. She has performed all over Mexico and in Europe. Known for her wild outfits and outrageous antics, she is always a crowd pleaser.
Marlen is the newest little bitch on the block. Marlen is also a former Miss Paco Paco. She is in tune with the newer singers such as Katy Perry and Avril Lavigne.
The “girls” have a huge and loyal following from not only Mexico, the United States and Canada but by people literally over most of the world, including, but not limited to France, England, Japan, China, the Netherlands and Africa.
I am amazed at the number of people, when I travel and have on a Dirty Bitches tee shirt, stop me and let me know that they have seen the Dirty Bitches at one time or another.
They have an equally huge following from the straight segment of not only locals in Puerto Vallarta, but again, from all over the world. Everyone from grandmothers to ministers, former drag queens to TV and movie personalities have seen their shows.
This latest move to Club Manana is a giant step for the girls. After many sleepless nights and countless conversations and meetings they felt it was time for them to move on………..and up to a venue more fitting to their talents and more in tune to their future.
Peter Deep of Club Manana has stated that he is thrilled to have the Dirty Bitches on the Club Manana roster of talent that is showcased in this large, diversified complex in Puerto Vallarta.
Their shows begin on Sunday, January 17th on the new rooftop of Club Manana…beginning at 8.30 p.m. The shows will run on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday nights, all at 8.30 p.m. with no cover charge.
New dance routines, costumes and attitudes are promised to all the followers of the Dirty Bitches.
As the MC of the Dirty Bitches show, I, Frank, have agreed to go along with the Dirty Bitches to Club Manana.

l am deeply grateful and honored to be counted among the friends of the Dirty Bitches, we know them in and out of drag and they are a bunch of delightful guys and we can truly attest that to know them is to love them. They can glam it up, camp it down, bring tears to your face, make you laugh like full-bellied hyenas, and a whole bunch of different emotions during their performances. Witnessing Jackie’s transformation from boy to girl in the “l am what l am” song, Diva´s geisha from hell doing ” l just wanna dance”, Marlen’s on the spot Britney, wild hair and all, and Angie’s incarnations, from Junky Bette Midler, to Mariah, to Marilyn, Cher, Jennifer Hudson… And of course, Mr. Brad Pitt himself -After Hurricane Katrina- MC Frank, to round up a hell of a show l would recommend and take anybody for a great -no cover!- time in PV. Kudos to Peter Deep, -what a great name for a patron of the gay world!, l swear!- the owner of the über fabulous Club Mañana for providing such a classy space for the Dirty Beaches show all the way to the top of the club to the spanking-new Sky Bar! l just wish they had an elevator for the senior citizen crowd to get there pronto! But the stairs are not bad anyway, but the elevator hint is there, eh?
Go see them and tip their cleavage in every way! Great fun guaranteed! Bring yourself, family, friends, tricks, as long as they are of legal age, and remember, the drag queens only look vicious, they are actually sweet guys with a passion for hair, sequins and make up.

I have been to several drag shows in my 60 years. When I was asked to go see them for the first time, I thought not another drag show. But once I have been there and seen the show I was amazed. It is the best I have ever seen. And they have alot of talent. We have brought alot of our friends that have visited and they say the same. I could go back and see them over and over. They do a wonderful job and there clothes are wonderful. I’m just glad I dont have to pay for them. LOL Keep up the good work girls, and Frank you are a very big part of the show also. I have seen you have to come up with stuff that was not part of the show when things dont go exactly like they should. The show would not be a great show with out a great MC and you the best. Best wishes to all of you, and keep up the good work. Don and Francisco
