Miss Adventure is a fictional character whose adventures (and misadventures) appear in the American supermarket tabloid the Weekly World News.
He is a gay man and worked as a hairdresser in his hometown of Teaneck, New Jersey.
Miss Adventure has climbed Mount Everest in mink and high heels ("The mountain was gorgeous, the snowmen abominable"), journeyed to the center of the earth ("When I go down, honey, I go down"), shot off in a space shuttle ("I'd wish they'd find another way to describe that"), infiltrated the Mafia ("The FBI has a noble drag queen tradition"), discovered the Lost City of Atlantis ("Not much different from a trailer park, really"), traveled out West ("When they call a guy a cowpoke they really mean it"), and survived an overturned cruise ship ("Trust me, it's not the first time I've seen that many sailors with their legs in the air").
Famous quotes containing the word adventure:
“There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won’t.”
