#Repost from @starsofthescreen #Divine #HarrisGlennMilstead • • • Harris Glenn Milstead, better known by his stage name Divine (October 19, 1945 – March 7, 1988), was an American actor, singer and drag queen. . Closely associated with independent filmmaker John Waters, Divine was a character actor, usually performing in a female drag persona. . Born in Baltimore, Maryland to a conservative middle-class family, Milstead developed an early interest in drag while working as a hairdresser. . By the mid-1960s he had befriended Waters, who gave him the name "Divine" and the tagline "The most beautiful woman in the world... almost.". . Divine joined Waters' acting troupe and took a lead role in both of Waters' early full-length movies, Mondo Trasho (1969) and Multiple Maniacs (1970). . Divine next starred in Waters' Pink Flamingos (1972), which became a cult classic, and established Divine's fame within the American counterculture. . Female Trouble (1974) followed, as did Polyester (1981) and Hairspray (1988), the latter of which represented his breakthrough into mainstream cinema. Independent of Waters, he appeared in Lust in the Dust (1985) and Trouble in Mind (1985). . In 1981, Divine embarked on a career in Disco and achieved global chart success with hits like "You Think You're a Man", "I'm So Beautiful", and "Walk Like a Man", all of which were performed in drag. . Described by People magazine as the "Drag Queen of the Century", Divine has remained a cult figure. . Various books and documentary films devoted to his life have been produced, including Divine Trash (1998) and I Am Divine (2013). . Original photographer credit: Greg Gorman
