In this last bit, Wendy talks about being a pop culture icon, her secret dancefloor weapon when DJing, and why she feels like a 25 year old (and how she “doesn’t give a fuck what a bunch of 40 year olds are doing…”).

Interview With Wendy James – Part One

8:21PM Jess McGuire | Good evening, ladies and gents! If you are a fan of Wendy James, formerly of Transvision Vamp and currently in Australia wandering around the country doing a few “DJ sets” at various venues, and you believe – perhaps naively – that you can tolerate listening to my talking voice in your spare time, then maybe you would like to listen to a recent interview I did with Wendy which was broadcast on RRR 102.7FM last night? You would? Sucker! Alright, Here is a quick taste – “part one”, if you like – of the interview, where Wendy talks about the kind of music she’ll be spinning during her sets. Coming up shortly on Defamer Australia, you can hear Wendy discuss how she managed to get Elvis Costello to write her a whole album, her solo career, and how she feels about devoted fans twenty years on from Transvision Vamp’s domination of the pop charts.
