VIDEO : John Waters Receives 'Crown of Queer Royalty' at 27th Lambda Literary Awards

The ?Lammys?, now in their 27th year, are the highlight of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender literary world. Yet steeped as they are in celebrity and ceremony, the Lammys weren?t as stuffy or straight as many LGBT awards shows often are: they were unabashedly, gleefully queer, representing the many facets of queer life.
The campiest and most enjoyable moment of the evening was when legendary 92-year-old columnist Liz Smith presented the Excellence in Literature Award to John Waters.
