In the aftermath of Heather Height's Husband Dave competing in the Opie and Anthony Gay off, Heather thought it would be cathartic to invite the harbinger of Dave's potential gayness, and star of the Opie and Anthony Gay off, GoGo Harder. www.gogoharder.com @gogoharder on Twitter. Go-Go Harder is the "boy next door" meets GLITTER SEX BOMB! Go-Go's special brand of Boylesk is theatrical and irreverent, campy and comedic, and most especially glittery and gritty. The love child of Liberace and Tom of Finland, Harder has been showcased nationally in New York City, Key West, Minneapolis, and even in his homestate in Fargo, North Dakota! Harder also shakes his Boylesk booty abroad including Warsaw, Poland for the 2010 Europride Celebration and in London where he headlined the 2011 All Male Boylesque Show for London Burlesque Week. Plus, Go-Go Harder was also crowned Best International Performer at the World Burlesque Games in London, May 2012! Harder continues to perform, teach, and produce Boylesk in New York City, spreading his love of leather, glitter, and of course, g-strings, wherever he can.
