Lafayette on True Blood

I'm watching this show for the first time tonight because HBO is doing a marathon and I just wanted to say how much I love the gay character Lafayette. mushy

He reminds me of so many of the gay, Southern, thug boys that befriended and nurtured me in college. Part queen, part thug, part mother, part gangster, always hustlin' and generous to a fault. Masculine and feminine, straight up punk but every bit a man. A mass of swirling contradictions but still a man nonetheless.

One in particular, Paul, was known for his cooking and no matter what time day or night you could go to Paul's apartment and he'd feed you, advise you, talk about yo ass, entertain you with a floor show worthy of Vegas, and cut you with a blade if you got too drunk and fucked up his place. lol

My other thug boys, James and Melvin, would give their last dolla if I asked for it and would be quick to fight if some chick tried to start shit with me at a party. Despite being thuggish, ruggish queens they taught me a lot about being a lady, helped me buy makeup for the first time, pointed out the football and basketball players that tried to holla at me but were secretly fucking around with them on the side. I still love them fools for everything they did. We were each other's family when we had none and I thank God for them. mushy

Most importantly there's my best friend who is also one of these gay "dudes" that looked out for me and I'm glad he bled on my white suit the night we met 17 years ago this month. That's the nucca that if I ever had to get rid of a body, I'd call him and he'd calmly ask: "Do you have a shovel or should I bring one?" That's my muthafucka for life. wink

Anyways, this scene reminded me of my partnas and I just wanted to shout 'em out. thumbs up!



So, if you feel like it, feel free to kick a shout out to somebody that had your back, back in the day. cool

I lurrrvveee Lafayette!!! I want him as my roommate. I saw this episode and LMFAO. Did you see the way he pulled off his earrings??? falloff

As for having someone in your past that "had your back.."

Walter was my best friend from 1st grade on. In fact, he was my only friend besides a mentally handicapped girl named Valerie Blakeley. I was an ugly, lonely child...kept to myself. Got picked on constantly and was basically an outcast. Walter Harper's family founded the town I lived in. His family was prestigious, but he was a "different" type of soul. By the time I was in the 6th grade, and the abuse by my peers escalated to that truly evil stage, he protected me. He was "popular." He had money. He was admired. He was smart. We were in art class and college prep classes together, even though I knew I was not going to be allowed to go to college.

He was my shoulder. My confidant. If someone picked on me, he set them straight. In 10th grade, my sis and I were taken out of school to wait for the end of the world. The only thing I missed was Walter.

I got married at 16 and moved away. He went to college in Baltimore. He still kept in touch with me. (I still have his letters.) Poetry...to me and my daughter...genuine concern...dreams and wishes. Happy New Years and birthday wishes.

Years later after my divorce, I went back to that town his family named to see him, as I'd heard he was back visiting his family. I called and went to visit. I looked good. cool Me...who was once a freckle-faced, curly red-headed geek of a girl who had no friends...was slim and dressed well, and when he saw me he hugged me much too hard.

We sat on the couch while he told me he was gay, had AIDS, and was dying. I could not speak. I could not cry. I was numb. He was "home" for good. Even though he'd made his life at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore as a psychiatrist, he was home to be with his family until the end.

I had to lie to my family to be able to see him in his last days. I had to say he had cancer and I wanted to be with him for support. I even got flack because his family was Catholic.

Anyway, here's to Walter James Harper. The kindest and most gentle and loving soul I have ever met in my life...he was, to me, the true meaning of what a human being is about. I miss you, Walter...Happy New Year. rose

Oh yes, i'm glad you have discovered "True Blood", and yes Lafayette at first, made me cringe, but then he grew on me and became my favorite character. Tis true, he's a gay thug, but you better not cross his ass, or he will man handle you. I loved that scene when he called out them ignorant trailer trash bastards at the diner, and when he handled that two faced politician. Lafayette is the only reason why I watch the show. You never know what he's going to do next. I just hope he gets to beat Jason's ass next season.

hug That's what I'm talkin' 'bout. It's amazing the people God puts in your life. Outsiders would think you have nothing in common or don't understand the friendship but to you, eventually, it makes perfect, natural sense. My friend Paul is also living with AIDS and I haven't spoken to him in years but I'm still grateful for his impact on my life.

nod Girl, when he did that I was like eek "Uh oh!" lol

He's totally like my friend James especially in the scene where he's talking to the girls about pussy. James used to always tell me, "Girl, if I had what you have I'd rule the world!!! But I can still work MY "pussy" though (tapping his ass)" spit That boy was/is a mess. mushy

the best public ass beating I ever saw was between a French Quarter thug-queen in drag and this big, football player sized dude on Mardi Gras day the year I came back in the service (1996)....the big dude was talking shit, calling the queen out with the usual slurs and shit....the queen told him one time not to forget he was still a man...then walked right up to the dude and Mike Tyson'd him...and then commenced to whuppin' his ass right in front of the rest of the big dude's friends while they hooped, holla'd and laughed at his big ass....

Naw Lafayette can't be dead because he has such a fan following. HBO should know damn well that if they kill Lafayette off, they might as well cancel the damn show.

I'd hate it if Lafayette were really dead, but he apparently does die in the first few pages of the second book.

His death would be in keeping with the books, but Alan Ball is notorious for doing what he wants to do. Unfortunately, he's also notorious for not necessarily giving his audience what they want or expect.

Well if what you are saying is true, and Lafayette is dead, then what is there left to keep me watching the show? It damn sure isn't to see Jason's dumb ass or to see Sookie have a love hate soap opera relationship with Bill.

Well if what you are saying is true, and Lafayette is dead, then there's no point in me watching.

I'm fighting with that too. lol But I'll still watch for Bill.

There's a street named Lafayette here around the Metro Detroit Area. Just a little known fact. At least, from world renowned standpoint. *Clears Throat* You can thank me, later. lurking

For real, and although I like Tara's character that actress' voice is annoying as hell and her Louisiana accent is way to twangy and high pitched. People from Louisiana don't talk like that. Even the white folks sound EXTRA soulful. I woulda sworn Harry Connick Jr was black when he first came out. He's worked on losing the "blackness" in his drawl but it comes back strong when he's in Nawlins or talking about Bush during the Katrina aftermath. lol I was too entertained by how "black" Harry sounded everytime he talked about that shit. I love his dirty draws. lol

Well I'm sort of pissed with HBO for cancelling ROME after just two seasons. ROME was my shit!!! Then they up'd and rushed the series finale at the end of season 2 and thats it. I read somewhere that they cancelled it because the production for it had gotten too expensive to keep up with. disbelief

Both Rome and Carnavale were expensive. At least you got a finale though. They left us high and dry. confused

She's doing WAY too much. I've spent a lot of time in the area of LA that this show is supposed to be based in and NO ONE talks likes that. lol

Yeah, out here in Lafayette, LA we don't speak like that at all. The closest was Rene lol! But that was fake too. Sorry for those who didn't see it yet. I am going to buy the first season as soon as it comes out.
Do I think Lafayette's dead, I hope not but people are saying that it is in the books and the whole second book is about finding out who his killer is but they might change that. I've signed a petition to keep him on the show. Also, if he is dead, he will be in back flashes. I hope he's going to be a vampire or other in shows to come. I also hope it's Tara's mom or that fake voodoo lady in that car and not him. All I know is that next season will be a great one and we all will be watching come June 2009. I can't wait that long! mad I swear I'm stalking that true blood site for new stuff LOL! wink

I've signed a petition to keep him on the show. Also, if he is dead, he will be in back flashes. I hope he's going to be a vampire or other in shows to come. I also hope it's Tara's mom or that fake voodoo lady in that car and not him. All I know is that next season will be a great one and we all will be watching come June 2009. I can't wait that long! mad I swear I'm stalking that true blood site for new stuff LOL! wink

lol I dunno, that was a pretty masculine leg with red toes. I don't think Tara's mama would paint her nails that color. lol I also love Adina Porter, the actress that plays Tara's mother. She killed it in Lackawanna Blues as the butch lesbian. I liked when the narrator said she was the coolest dude he ever knew. lol

There was only one person that I can remember that was my LAFAYETTE. His name was Larry but everyone called him Mommy. Yep, he was there as counselor, mother, protector, you name it. I've lost touch with him.
