Crossover Act: "'I can do a gig in a dress or not. When I came down the East Coast last time I had a beard and I was in blokey mode, as I call it. And when I went down the West Coast I was in girlie mode. Just like a woman can wear pants or she can wear a skirt. It's her choice, and it's my choice. It's got nothing to do with the comedy. If you look at the comedy, I'm just talking crap about history. Does it matter if I have lipstick on? If I take it off, does the comedy change?' "

Great article from the Washington Post on Eddie Izzard, with nice accompanying blokey photo.
