Life imitating art: Robbers in drag steal $100 million in jewel heist.

Four armed robbers — two of them men disguised as women — walked into a luxury jewelry store in Paris and swiped an estimated €80 million (U.S. $101 million) in jewels, the Paris prosecutor’s office said. (You can read the whole story here.)

Do you think they got some pointers from my short film, Drag Queen Heist? Probably not. Drag Queen Heist is a lesson in learning what not to do in a heist.

And guess what!? You could buy a copy of the Begging for Shorts DVD, and watch Drag Queen Heist again. Maybe it will offer insights into the minds of Drag Robbers. Just head on over to our store section. If you already have a copy, buy one for your friends and family. I’m seeing stocking stuffers! Happy Holidays!
