Family Reunion
May 6th, 2013 by Nina with No Comments
There is yet another crazy week upon us, but with Monday almost half over, that only means we are one day closer to the weekend!
This weekend is already promising to be one for the books. The Axis Lounge show on Saturday night promises to be a memorable family reunion especially for me on Mother’s Day Weekend! I am excited to announce the return of KARI KERNING and BARBIE ROBERTS in the cabaret this Saturday at midnight, with Freesia Balls and me!
Join us after WILLAM for this special night. I know it is going to get ridiculous!
May 11, AXIS!

Tough Jobs
April 30th, 2013 by Nina with No Comments
Do you remember that show Dirty Jobs, with Mike Rowe? He would go into all of these crazy situations that people do day in and day out to earn a living, like a sanitation plant or roadkill taxidermists. Well, I am proud to say I have a tough, DIRTY job just like Mike Rowe. I know, I know…cue the strings…
From Saturday’s GLOW PARTY at Axis:
Please note the adorable GLOW panties I am sporting. 
Neil Patrick Harris, Can You Hear Me?
April 2nd, 2013 by Nina with No Comments
I am shameless. I am ok with that, and, by the looks of things, you are as well.
Well, as a fan of Neil Patrick Harris, or NPH for short, I have noticed that he tweets a good deal about food. It is no secret that Columbus has some great eats…and as an unofficial ambassador to this fair hamlet of ours, I have decided to take it upon myself to invite NPH and his adorable husband David to Columbus to dine with me at some of my favorite eats around the city!
Could you imagine if this happened? I know I can. Maybe if we will it hard enough it will come true? Or you could tweet him and suggest it? Either way, it is fun to be a little ridiculous and maybe, just maybe he will see it and be intrigued enough to swing by Arch City for gnosh!

NINA DOES CBUS Art
March 11th, 2013 by Nina with No Comments
All of the art work for this show has been by local artists. One more will come out next week.
In the mean time, here are the three pieces and the artists’ names!
Artist Michael Owens takes Nina to new heights in the first piece. Nina is scaling the historic and beautiful Leveque Tower.
Covered in tats and surrounded by some of the best in all-things-local, Nina looks particularly fetching, thanks to artist Jim Haskins, a CCAD grad and resident of the capital city! Can you name all the nods?
The latest ad was created by my drag daughter Barbie Roberts…aka Christian Cimoroni. Attack of the 50 Foot queen, indeed! This piece is graphic and glorious!
