PLAYBILL.COM'S CUE & A: Lucy The Slut

By Ernio Hernandez
12 Aug 2009

Lucy The Slut
Lucy The Slut

Lucy The Slut — star of Broadway's long-running musical Avenue Q — fills out Playbill.com's questionnaire with random facts, backstage trivia and pop culture tidbits.


Full given name: Lucy The Slut
Hometown: None of your f#@%ing business
Zodiac sign: What's the one with the crabs? That one.
Audition song: Oh, sugar, I don't audition. I get offered gigs outright. Though sometimes I do hafta seal the deal by dancing one of my specialties: the Backseat Samba, the Horizontal Hula, or the Mattress Mambo.
Special skills: Ball juggling, cigar smoking, pony riding, muffin buttering, carpet cleaning, candlewick dipping, nut cracking, rock climbing, tool grinding, pipe laying, clock winding, pearl diving, and basket weaving.
First Broadway show ever saw: Does the peep show at 42nd and 8th count? Changed my life…
If you could go back in time and catch any Broadway show, what would it be? I'd rather meet my Broadway boys after they're done for the night and slam dollar shots at the Port Authority bowling alley. That's Broadway for me.
Current show you have been recommending to friends: I WAS recommending In the Heights as a favor to Lin-Manuel, cuz he and I had our own little weekly matinee in his dressing room, but ever since he left the show, that [Spanish expletive] doesn't return my calls.
Favorite show tune: Is "Superfreak" from a musical?
Most played song on your iPod: "%#@$ the Pain Away" by Peaches
Web obsession: I don't obsess about the internet, men on the internet obsess about me.
Last book you read: "The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet" — why are you looking at me like that? I read. Motherf#@%er.
Must-see TV show: "Hung"
Last good movie you saw: "Harry Potter and the Half-Pierced Prince Albert"
Favorite board/card game: Take your pick: Strip Poker, Strip Go Fish, Strip Twister, Strip Boggle
Performer you would drop everything to go see: Lover, I did drop everything to see Justin Timberlake, if you know what I mean. And believe you me, the view was tasty.
Pop culture guilty pleasure: I'm only admittin' this cuz I'm on my third Long Island Iced Tea, but I love that "Tori and Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood." Their disgustingly sweet relationship almost makes me want to get hitched myself someday. Then it goes to commercial and I come back to my senses.
First stage kiss: Does it count as a kiss if it wasn't my lips? Or his?
Worst onstage mishap: I'm a professional. Whenever something goes wrong on stage, I know how to handle it so no one ever remembers. I flash my %#$&.
Who have you played on "Law & Order"? Which edition? I've come so close to playing almost every dead hooker you've ever seen on those shows, but they always decide to go with someone "less fuschia and less felty."
Pets' names? I have a snake named Pleasure and a gerbil named Richard. I keep them separated.
Favorite junk food: Hot dogs and popsicles.
Who would play you in the movie? Chelsea Handler
Leading lady role you've been dying to play: Hedda Gabler. Don't look at me like that. I have range! Motherf%$#ing…
