There were cross dressers, women in fishnets, a little person, celebs, frat boy authors, tattooed artists, and musicians dressed as nurses. Just another night on Hollywood Blvd? Perhaps. But mix in the opening night of an art show totally dedicated to erotic, unusual, and sometimes disturbing images of tv legends, The Golden Girls, and you get something very different, even for Hollywood.

Curator Lenora Claire was glowing as she worked her way out of the hot and happy gallery to chat with those waiting in line outside trying to get in. Inside, the walls were lined with dozens of Golden Girl-inspired art work in a wide variety of styles, and the work inspired a packed gallery full of smiles and laughter from pretty much everyone who was lucky enough to be there.

The Golden Gals Gone Wild art exhibit was so much fun. The mood was so lighthearted.

There was art for pretty much everyone.

There were spiritual Golden Girls

Happy Golden Girls

Super Hero Golden Girls

Were there celebs? Yes, duh. It's Hollywood and this is awesome.

Were there dudes who were getting more chicks than us, but of course.

Did Tucker Max appear to support his bro the Gay Bigfoot? Yup, and he even had fans there waiting for him.

But the best was around 11pm when we discovered what the four fuzzy boxes were spread out on the floor of the gallery. They were little platforms for the huge-headed Golden Girl go-go dancers.

Despite his glare at our photographer, Mr. Ribisi seemed happy with the show, as he was spotted outside of the show congratulating Lenora Claire.
