CNN —Close your eyes and imagine a stand-up comedian. Today, female comics are more likely to be seen in vintage Versace, Gucci or Alessandra Rich than a denim button-down. To the uninitiated, Barone wore a sparkly silver dress. Dev Bowman“For a long time, female comedians were pressured into dressing like their male counterparts,” said Barone. “I don’t want it to seem like I’m saying I’m the first person to ever wear a dress to do stand up comedy,” she said.

☆ Kim Gordon’s Coolest Act Yet

Plenty of people she loved attended her 60th birthday bash in New York, but she still felt unmoored. Gordon’s 70th birthday party last year, though, was another story entirely. For one thing, it was in Los Angeles, the city she’d grown up in and returned to in 2015. But also, as Gordon explained on a video call from her book-strewn home in late February, it doubled as a celebration of finishing her second solo album, “The Collective.”“It was kind of great to have done that on my 70th birthday,” she said and laughed from behind tinted sunglasses. (The title is partially inspired by Jennifer Egan’s novel “The Candy House.”) But left turns are business as usual for Gordon, a restlessly curious artistic polymath who has never settled for the conventional, expected or familiar.
