Pop Quiz: Sandra Bernhard


Aidin Vaziri | We were really excited to interview Sandra Bernhard about her smash off-Broadway show, "Everything Bad & Beautiful," which features the comedian-actor-singer-mother performing pop songs such as Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" and Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" with her band, the Rebellious Jezebels. But then she told us that wasn't the show she was going to perform at Bimbo's 365 Club. Which, in a way, is a thousand times better because the star of shows such as Showtime's "The L Word" and NBC's "Crossing Jordan" is always at her best when she's at her most unpredictable.

Q: So at this show you don't sing any Bob Dylan or Christina Aguilera songs?
A: No, but there are other songs. Why? Are you disappointed?
Q: Yes, because all the rest of my questions are about Bob Dylan or Christina Aguilera songs.
A: You can still ask them. I'm going to come twice.
Q: Will there be a lot of nudity?
A: There will be some scintillation. There always is.
Q: For some reason, I expect nudity with you.
A: Yeah, I'm sure someone will end up nude that night. There's skin, for sure.
