From the scariest of Halloween aisles, I'm pleased to be ON TOP OF TRUMP!  (He really is the lowest of the low.)

Oh snap!  The Pepper wall's gonna have to wrap around!! 

Nice work, Cody Lee Hardin! 

-At the Full Moon Tattoo & Horror Festival

The kid from "Child's Play," Alex Vincent, just reported seeing a man skipping down the halls, and actually crying with joy with the DVDs of my one-woman shows in hand.  I consider it a sign of my imminent solo performance career-resurrection!

We all know social media's not real.  If you REALLY wanna know the straight dope from your girl, Naomi, I'M ABOUT TO TELL YOU, LIVE, ON STAGE, FLAT OUT, FULL THROTTLE!!!  Plus, FREE BOOZE & SNACKS before & after!  http://nueapower.eventbrite.com/

Never have been to Nashville!  Looking forward to the Full Moon Tattoo & Horror Festival there this weekend!  http://www.fullmooninc.net/nashville-full-moon-tattoo-festival

'Not just another op'nin', nor another show:  

"Kelly's Hollywood" premiere, 

celebrating #worlddownsyndromeday #dsala

Did you know that today is World Down Syndrome Day?  Meet me on the red carpet at the ArcLight Cinemas Sherman Oaks for a special screening of the documentary, "Kelly's Hollywood." Should be a great time for a great cause!  Get tickets at:  http://www.dsala.org

Great day watching hot guys wield big sticks at the 

Luc Robitaille Celebrity Shootout, benefitting Echoes of Hope!

I don't post personal stuff much here... But I feel like I almost OWE it to you all to share, since none of this would even exist without you!  At last, my Pepper room is complete; includes 2 walls and window ledge of pure Pepper.  To think that my art inspired others' art... I get verklempt!  It's the first thing I'd run for in a fire.

EVERY MORNING should begin with a 6:30am dance party!

Gotham City.  Midnight.  April 16.  Where are you?  At "Fear, Inc."'s WORLD PREMIERE, OPENING WEEKEND at Robert DeNiro's TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL, I hope!

What could be freakier than me & Mat Fraser, in a clown's mouth, in Florida, in unplanned, MATCHING OUTFITS?!?!     -At the Treasure Coast Freak Show

Needless to say, last night's Best Buddies International 

"The Art of Friendship" Benefit Photo Auction 

was a jaw-dropping good time!

I just love that my long-time crush, Smith Jerad was at the same party as me!  (And that I took the better Getty image, as if that were even possible!)

#OscarsSoFun!

Makeup by:  Dee Perry
Choker by:  Twisted Silver

You may have caught me on the Oscars telecast last night... Right after the show ended, they cut to the red carpets, and there I was!  Peeking behind the hostess, while she talked about all the starts she was about to interview live! ;)

On this Oscar Sunday, I'd like to thank my dress designer, Natalia Fedner Design & my makeup artist, Dee Perry for their great work, as evidenced below:

Good news abounds for "Fear, Inc" (in which I play a sick-n-twisted hench-woman).  This is just the beginning!  http://deadline.com/2016/02/abigail-breslin-fear-inc-movie-scream-queens-dirty-dancing-1201709744/

Running the table w/ actor, Walter E. Jones at the Young Variety Charity Event.

Today marks the one year anniversary of Ben Woolf's death.  Not a day goes by that I don't think about him:  holding hands as we walked, pretending those "hey shorty" cat-calls were for me, getting blitzed off bread pudding... Which is why, on this day, I want you all to know how much I cherish you.  I know, I know; I only actually know of fraction of people reading this!  But I love you random, horror fans too!  The fact is Ben (and Rose Siggins, and Tracey Collins, and Alexandra Barnes-- all friends I lost last year) taught us that life's too short not to truly value each other and our time together.  Because we just never know when that will run out.

Spent the weekend with bionic women & masked men.  Thanks, Empower Comic Con!

Yay!  We drew crowds for charity!  http://m.cjonline.com/news/2016-02-20/cosplay-event-draws-crowds-charity#gsc.tab=0

They say, "you're not in Kansas anymore," but in my case, that's just not true!

Proud to have been invited by The League of Extraordinary Ladies to Topeka, Kansas's first Empower Comic con next weekend!  http://www.empowercomiccon.com

Hello, lovers!  Here's sending you Valentine's greetings from West Hollywood... May you spend the day draped in the gender of your choosing!

This is my long-time bestie, and former alley way.  Please give it a watch upon it's launch Monday, and for those in LA, join us for the full season on the big screen tomorrow!  https://www.facebook.com/AlleyWaySeries/

Dunno how I entered into this #OscarsSoWhite/Donald Trump discussion, but it is personally quite complimentary: http://www.thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/24/the_cult_of_whiteness_on_oscarssowhite_donald_trump_and_the_end_of_america

DEN-CO!!!

I had a SHOCKINGLY GREAT BIRTHDAY today!  Thank you to my dear friends who made it so!!

In general, this was a terrible, horrible no good, very bad week (though I won't waste the story here-- it's the stuff of a hit solo show/book/movie/TV series!).  Then, the completely unexpected happened... (I was there for actress, Jamie Brewer's bday, not my own.)  Thanks, friends, for the lovely surprise!  https://www.facebook.com/naomi.grossman.5/videos/vb.695503801/10153522012713802/?type=3&theater

#TBT to a birthday gone by... Angeleno-friends are cordially invited to my party on Saturday.  As for my far-away friends, or those not able to make it, it will likely look a lot like this:  

NOBODY PUTS FRIDA KAHLO IN THE CORNER!  

Thanks to Natalia Fedner for the awesome invite, and congrats to the "Dirty Dancing" cast & crew 

on their stellar opening night!

Wikipedia says it's my birthday today.  Which is weird, because the internet is NEVER wrong.  My birthday is Saturday... For you Angelenos, hope to see you then!  And for those sending premature birthday wishes today, thanks/wait!

Such fun guest-teaching today's "Sena-Series Specialty Workshop:  Working the Red Carpet!"

COMING SOON... My bestie, Marcus Folmar (& my!) new web series, "Alley Way."  Dropping in early Feb!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTOXXqZc8as

Last time I was in Laredo, I was sitting on a suitcase at the border for 8 hours, waiting for my Mexican boyfriend at the time to arrive, hoping I wouldn't get kidnapped.   Now I'm headlining.  Come a long way, baby!  -At South Texas Collectors Expo

Reading fan-mail beside my very own pool in January... SOMEBODY PINCH ME, PLEASE!!!  Shout-out to Kevin Stricklin for finding me my dream-home, & his hubby, Francesco Gallo for tricking it out.  Plus a heads-up to those who included a self-addressed, stamped envelope:  expect a little love in the mail from me next week!

For those who missed my talk at Northwestern University (most everyone!), catch the cliff notes on my colleague, Michael Prywes's new podcast, entitled "How I Broke Into."  Insightful stuff!

The news of late has been so dismal (Detroit, the death of every rocker to ever rock, Republicans in general), I'm thinking about making MTV and its fluffy fan-stuff my main news-source:

Enjoying an unprecedented, entire month home... 

But soon, I'm off to the Alamo for Terror Expo!

2015 was the year I took 44 trips to 22 states and 7 countries.  Just thinking about it makes me so tired, I may not make it to midnight.

Talking on Frank Talk Radio (channel 1) today 4-5pm PST.  Join the convo at http://www.latalkradio.com

WALKED TO YOGA from my new place in HALF the time it takes me to DRIVE from the old.  You know what that means:  less time in traffic, more time in Eka Pada Galavasana in my Shama Jade unitard, of course!

No snow, far from family, not a tree in sight... And yet, this has got to be my merriest Christmas yet!  For TODAY I woke up A HOMEOWNER, for the first time IN MY VERY OWN PLACE!!!

On this Christmas Eve, I can't stop thinking about Rose's two kids, Shelby & Luke, dressed here as orphans for our "Orphans" episode.  It all just rings a little too true, having just lost their mother themselves... Please help them through this difficult time:  http://www.gofundme/RoseSiggins

Grazie, Ravello Magazine, per l'intervista!  http://www.ravellomagazine.com/da-oltreoceano-naomi-grossman-protagonista-del-successo-televisivo-american-horror-story-di-ryan-murphy/

Today we say our final goodbyes to Rose Siggins.  #AHS mourns with her children, Shelby & Luke.  Help them move forward:  http://www.gofundme.com/RoseSiggins

Ahhhhh, postxmasshoppingasana!  Infinitely easier and more pleasant than braving the crowds at the mall!  (And why bother when you can just get everybody unitards at www.shamajade.com?!

Happy Birthday, Mom!  You're still as beautiful as ever.  I, conversely, am now bigger than your hand!

Rose Siggins and I shared many, many laughs (this one among them).  I can only hope she's looking down (our cleavages) and laughing.

Rose Siggins never spent a SINGLE SECOND feeling sorry for herself, so neither can we!  (Although I admit I've had my moments this week.)  Her strength and smile truly serve as a reminder and inspiration to us all... Now, onto having a great weekend and happy holidays, like she would want!

This week in New Orleans, I was reminded of the wall of our production office for "AHS: Freak Show."  Each time one of us "died" (on the show), we were turned upside-down.  Bittersweet to see us all right side-up, in retrospect.  

Another memory of Rose, and our beloved band of freaks:

I remember once visiting Rose in the hospital while we were shooting "Freak Show"...  When I entered her room, I was struck by its diversity:  there was Emmy & Oscar winner, Jessica Lange, Emmy nominee, Sarah Paulson, Rose (who, until only recently had been an auto-mechanic), and me... all brought together out of the common concern and love for this woman.  I though, "wow, what a great group" -- not just within those four wall (though that too) -- but that cast and crew, in general. I'm so grateful to have had that time with them, and Rose, in particular.
