Q and A with
Michael Alig
interview
October 09
Daniel Rakowitz, the
pathological cannibal, claims you two were buddies back in the day and
even used to smoke up together at your place on Central Park West.
Any truth to that?
That name doesn't ring a bell. I have a friend, Jenny who lived in that area, but I never lived there personally.

I know that you do a lot of painting now-are
there any websites showcasing your work
Yes, there are some showing my new
artwork, a few pieces, anyway. You can go to The Blackbook Magazine
website and check out a column called "Goodnight, Mr. Lewis", as there
are around 12 paintings posted there. That's the only place showing my newer stuff. World Of Wonder
wants to mostly keep things under wraps because they want my book to be
the first time people see my stuff.
Do you have any tattoos?
I don't, I'm too much of a chicken when it comes to pain! Keoki is covered in them. I don't know how he does it, frankly, I can barely get a shot of heroin in my arm, I'm so scared of needles. And I really LOVE heroin!

Do you enjoy cooking?
Yes, I really miss cooking big dinners for friends!

What are some of your favorite movies?
I have so many favorite movies! It's hard to pick just a few. I like mostly older films, especially those cheesy 70's drive-in horror films like Texas Chainsaw Massacre (only the original) and Last House on The Left (also only the original-these new remakes all SUCK!). I like old Joan Crawford movies (Whatever Happened to Baby Jane; Mildred Pierce; etc)The Wizard of Oz...Dawn of The Dead...The Crazies...so many! It's like asking a mother of 20 to choose her favorite child.

No, no boyfriends in here...I did have a crush on some-one in here for a while and we dated for a couple of years, but then he went home and got married and had a baby and I haven't heard from him anymore. He was so cute, Jessika! His name was Mike and he looked like a cross between Leonardo DiCaprio and Levi Johnston, so, so my type. He's very sneaky and cunning, too. I fully expect him to lie to his wife and sleep with me on the side, behind her back!
Aren't you suppose to be released fairly
soon?
I did see the parole board last year,but they said no! My next possible release date is March 2010. If they don't let me go home then, it won't be too much longer. In fact,I will know my definite release date this November.

What did you think about the movie Party Monster and
Macaulay Culkin portraying you?
I haven't seen it, so I can't really give an opinion. I have seen clips on talk shows, though. And from what I have seen, Macaulay didn't do such a great job of playing me. He acted way too flamboyant and queenie..much more

like Richie Rich than me! And he
speaks in this weird
british accent, which I find puzzling! The
clothes and makeup and party scenes seem very
authentic to me,though.
That's because they had my friends Richie and
Kabuki doing the styling and makeup. In the end,
I suppose that's the most important thing.
The makeup and party scenes. I mean, it's all
anyone I know of, really cares about!
Where did you live in Indiana?
South Bend. We first lived at Castle Point, then we moved to Topsfield, which is way over by where the Scottsdale Mall used to be. I do actually miss South Bend. Usually around the holidays, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas, but not so much that I would like to move back there! :)
I'm guessing you get quite a bit of mail,yes?
I do, sometimes 25-30 letters a day. I do read every letter I receive.
