Pussy Tourette is the stage name for an American drag queen, composer and singer. Beginning as a go-go dancer in San Francisco's underground scene, Tourette was acclaimed the hottest and sauciest act on the city's cabaret scene when she started singing her original compositions live. Touring nationally has helped her develop nothing less than a fanatical following. Five Tourette songs are featured in "Sex Is", which won the Best Gay Film Award at the Berlin International Film Festival.
