Sugar Lee Hooper
Sugar Lee Hooper (real name: Marja van der Toorn) was a Dutch singer and tv personality who passed away last week from complications after a fall from her scooter. She was known for her shaved head and brightly coloured clothes, as well as being the first Dutch celebrity to be married to a same-sex partner (in 1998). She released 3 best-selling albums and had several top 10 hits in the 1990s.
Condolences to the lesbians of Holland and to her partner Andrea van der Kaap. Sugar Lee will be missed!

Anika Moa is a New Zealand singer/songwriter who gave a great interview last week to The Press about her recent civil union to a burlesque dancer named Azaria Universe. Read the article here.
Best quote: "We thought we'd have a quick civil union in a building, but then we had the idea to do what we did and all of a sudden, 150 of our mates were there and now I'm poor."
