Spin magazine gave the kick-off concert of our Perez Hilton Presents tour the most amazing review!!!!!!

They say:

"Perez Hilton Kicks Off U.S. Tour
The Queen of All Media throws a party with his favorite acts, including Ida Maria and Ladyhawke. And it is fabulous, dahlin

Perez Hilton helped put Lady Gaga and Mika on the map by featuring them in the "Listen to This" section of his popular site Perezhilton.com. So it was only a matter of time before America's celebrity blog princess became a de facto A&R man with his own label and a national tour.

Thursday night at Atlanta's 1200-seat Variety Playhouse, said tour kicked off much like his fans would expect: The stage was flanked by shiny magenta curtains and a massive "Perez Hilton Presents" backdrop. A video screen played boppy tunes by the Ting Tings and Rihanna, until the house lights dimmed and the host bounded on stage, sporting perfectly messy hair and a tight-fitting turquoise tee that read "I'm Huge on Twitter."

"Hi Atlanta! I hope you guys are drunk," Hilton said by way of greeting. "And if not, it's time to get drunk!" Then suddenly recognizing how young the audience was, he added, "And I don't care how old you are, I approve of underage drinking…as long as you don't drive."

With that, the party was underway.

French pop artist Sliimy, the first artist Hilton has signed to his label, will be appearing at select upcoming tour dates, but for the Atlanta kickoff, New York glam-metal band Semi Precious Weapons opened.

Led by androgynous frontman Justin Tranter, the group looked and sounded like the Sex Pistols — if they had emerged from Andy Warhol's downtown Manhattan Factory scene. "We are Semi Precious Weapons. You should start fucking now," Tranter urged. As for their set? It was like a drag show on speed, with just the right amount of pop fabulousness.

During the changover, Hilton hung in the crowd, smiling and chatting as flash bulbs popped around him, a constant reminder of the magnitude of his self-made celebrity. Then he was back on stage to pump the next act. "I have a silly celebrity website, but music is my passion," he declared, before unleashing Norwegian pop-punker Ida Maria, a rising star in her own right.

Within seconds, Maria and her band — think Courtney Love fronting the Artic Monkeys – had the crowd bouncing like excited Muppets, pogoing along to supercatchy tunes like "I Like You So Much Better When You're Naked." But they also knew how to shut the hell up during stunning, delicate tunes like "Stella."

Before introducing the final act, the sexy, synth-happy Ladyhawke, Hilton said, "Thank you guys so much for coming out. It's the first time I've done this. Thank you." Then back into the crowd he went.

Perhaps it was all the PBR swilling or the fact that Ladyhawke could have been playing the soundtrack to a feel-good 80's-era John Hughes movie, but the atmosphere became less like a concert and more like a giant house party, complete with famous bands and your new BFF, that nice, surprisingly earnest Mr. Hilton.

Looks like he's on to something after all."

Our first-ever tour truly is going to be an international affair!

A magical evening of some of the Perez's favorite acts, the lineup includes Norway's Ida Maria and New Zealand's very own Ladyhawke (above)!

Often compared to Pat Benatar, Kim Wilde, Annie, and New Young Pony Club, Ladyhawke's retro-tinged jams have earned her raves from Rolling Stone to NME.

Her songs know how to get a party going and we are thrilled to have Ladyhawke be part of our "Perez Hilton Presents" lineup.

Tickets go on sale this weekend to the general public. We're hoping they will all sell out! As a thank you to our loyal readers, however, we will be offering you exclusive access to a pre-sale for tour tickets this Thursday.

Keep checking back for info on the pre-sale as well as what cities the tour is hitting and what other artists are part of this truly magical lineup!

We love a Lady!

Our Divas-themed "One Night in Austin" concert extravaganza this Saturday is definitely an international affair!

Representing New Zealand will be one of our favorite Lady after GaGa, Ladyhawke.

Her music takes you back to a carefree time when disco and '80s met and rock and dance were one.

She is fantabulously fierce - and she will also be joining Little Boots on our stage and other equally amazing artists whom we will be revealing over the coming days.

Check out Ladyhawke's delicious Paris is Burning below.

Say hello to Ladyhawke!

She's like Lady Gaga with a bit more of a rock edge - but just as fab.

Hailing from New Zealand, Ladyhawke's first single is called Paris Is Burning. She obviously likes to travel!

And the song definitely takes you back to a carefree time when disco and '80s met and rock and dance were one.

Did she purposefully name the song after one of the best gay movies of all time????

This is the perfect song to jam out to this weekend. Enjoy Paris Is Burning below and then CLICK HERE to check out more tunes from Ladyhawke.
