Jackie Beat home tour
By David A. Keeps
From the curb, it looks like just another 1949 California ranch house. But walk past the plastic skulls planted in the flower bed several Halloweens ago and the American flag rippling in the breeze, and there it is, in your face: a lipstick-red front door monogrammed with a gold J and B. Jackie Beat, queen of all queens in Los Angeles' drag circuit, has dressed up a once-boring Highland Park bungalow as a palace of vintage style, a house that throws on a wig and a gown 365 days a year. |

Lose the American flag, lady (unless you replace the stars with skulls, then it would make a nice statement).
Otherwise, the rest of the house is great.
Score: 9/10
IKEA, go take your sterlized "ICU hospital ward" decor and jump off a cliff. This house has character.
