Forty something years into a lifetime of looking great but feeling fake, Cally Beaton is ready to come out about her double life in her hilarious brand-new stand-up show, Super Cally Fragile Lipstick. Accomplished and insecure, perky yet prone to crying, sophisticated and so not, a woman who wears lipstick and a testosterone patch, Cally is now ready to emerge from the birth canal of her very own personal Venn diagram to muse amusingly on how being super and fragile can be OK. And very, very funny (just in case you didn't get that bit).

Cally Beaton: How to recover an award nomination

A couple of days ago, I wrote the second of two blogs about Cally Beaton and others claiming to have won an increasingly prestigious Malcolm Hardee Comedy Award at the Edinburgh Fringe.

How publicists can lose you an Fringe award nomination

The story was picked-up yesterday by comedy industry website Chortle - as part of a list of false publicity claims by various performers - which reported re Cally Beaton that: "The press release for her delightfully named show Super Cally Fragile Lipstick boasts that she won the 'Malcolm Hardee First Minute Award', last year. Today, Chortle has a piece which includes the suicidal lines: "Comedian Cally Beaton also felt that she had ended up on the list through no fault of her own... Her publicist said they were told Beaton had won a 'First Minute Award at the Malcolm Hardee Awards."

Don't give up the day job

Doctor by day, standup by night? A funny media exec? A Late Night Gimp Fighter-cum-barrister? The world of comedy is moonlighting central, as Si Hawkins finds out.
