Whether you choose to go out in Bangkok or stay in and watch MTV, it's hard to escape LouLou Ferrari these days. As our party pic archives show, this clubland queen has been turning heads on a nightly basis for at least as long as BangkokRecorder has been running, so we thought it was time to give the glamorous harlot her own interview.
For the uninitiated, just who is LouLou Ferrari?
LouLou Ferrari is Goddess of the Fucking Galaxy, and she ain’t going nowhere!
 It seems like you manage to be at every party worth going to. How do you decide exactly which events to grace with your presence?
It depends if I can be bothered going out really. Freebies usually play a big part in my decision too though... but a lot of people don’t realise that I'm actually paid to be at some parties, by clubs and/or brands. Everyone just presumes that because I'm out and pissed on a daily basis & that I'm a freeloading alcoholic, which I'm happy to be branded with because I am. But, at the same time, the people saying these things are the people who have to pay to get in to clubs & who have to buy their own drinks!
You're known for your quick tongue. Has your bitchy side ever gotten you into hot water?
Thank God, I don’t actually care about anyone’s feelings but my own... That’s mean and stupid, I know, but if someone thinks it’s a good idea to answer me back, and does - then the leash comes off and my god you better run for cover! I'm not a total bitch though, I just don’t take crap from anyone who thinks they’re better than me, ‘cause there’s a 99% chance they're not!
On your MySpace page, you state that you don't like liars. How important is it to always tell the truth?
Lying is bad! And yes, that is my real age!
 Your long locks and outlandish costumes have become your trademark. How much time do you dedicate to your look?
It depends on what I'm doing. If I'm stripped and in/on a box, then I don’t need to spend hours perfecting my makeup as no-one ever gets to see it up-close, whereas if I'm doing some kind of modelling - whatever - where I have people and cameras in my face, then yeah, its gotta be perfect...ish!
What was it like working with Tata Young on the 'El Nin Yo' music video? Was there enough room for 2 divas on the set?
Oh my God! That’s so funny, everyone asks like that! It was great, Tata was fun to work with, we got along fine, we have a lot in common as you can tell, except I coulda pulled off that video waaaaaay better! (laughs)
What have been your other favourite appearances in stage, film... or home video?
The one that shot me into the clubbing world was about three years ago at Bed (who I now hate for reasons which I wont go in to right now) Anyway, it was the 8th birthday party for Pop Magazine, and I naturally turned up in a bright red thong, downed a couple of bars, lost my phone, got up to dance, fell off, had another few bars, got back up, flipped my hair... that fell off... and everything after that is a blur! Needless to say, I caused my usual stir and the next time I was in bed they offered me a job.
 My favourite bar apperance was probably at my 21st birthday - I went as Christina from the Moulin Rouge... At the time I was working at Mystique, and with the help of 300 freebie condoms, a team of showgirls, a foam machine and a tattoo-covered Daryl, it was the birthday of all birthdays!
How ironic are you being when you say you look up to Jodie Marsh?
I love the phrase 'famous for being infamous' ... That girl’s just like me. People brand her with all kinds of crap... but, again, they forget that she’s being paid just to turn up to places in a bikini and eyelashes, guaranteeing attention. If I go to a party, I will be seen by everyone. Tthey can say what they want but it beats paper pushing any day!
What is right with Bangkok's nightlife right now?
Not much.
...and what would you change about it?
The police closing and pee-test things... I mean, God!
 You seem to be almost completely nocturnal. Where can you be found at 2am, when the dancefloors are emptying out?
Probably passed out in a corner, clinging to an empy bottle of something.
Depending on my drunken state, I'll either party on somewhere or bring the party home with me!
Do you eat food, or is it possible to survive on long island ice teas?
I usually get the munchies when I'm pissed and head to the nearest food stall. But yeah, I live on cherries and lime wedges mainly!
