In case you are wandering, these characters are dressing up as Dame Ednas. The first time I came across Dame Edna was watching a Stella McCartney New Years Eve Fashion video. My husband and I cracked up watching the Dame entertain us. She was hilarious. The Real Dame Edna Everage is a character played by Australian dadaist-comedian Barry Humphries. The Dame Edna has been a rep for Mac cosmetics, a Broadway star, a successful comedian. I recommend watching the interview Piers Morgan did with the Dame on April 27, 2011. She is intelligent, witty, and quite respectful to the Royals. The Dame Edna Everage character was originally conceived in 1956. It is one of the longest lived comedic characterisations ever devised. Dame Edna has one of the most impressive acting and stage careers I have ever read about. Dame Edna even had a small part as voice over in Finding Nemo. Take time to hear what the Dame Edna has to say about anything. You will not be sorry.
