Madame Delphina Sees All

How psyched are we that Madame Delphina (Lea DeLaria), the unexpectedly accurate clairvoyant, is back on "One Life to Live"? Dorian (Robin Strasser), the Dionne Warwick to her Linda Georgian, corralled her to La Boulaie to give newlyweds David and Addie (Tuc Watkins and Pamela Payton-Wright) a reading that would send them to divorce court. Delphina refused because the "Daddie" vibes were too good. On a side note, have you noticed how similar Delphina's hair is to Velma's from Scooby Doo? All she needs is to dump the muumuus and crystals and replace them with glasses and bobby socks.

Anyway, Delphina first appeared back in 1999 when Dorian contacted her for spiritual advice following the death of Dorian's beloved, Mel (Stephen Merkle). Among the results were, of course, Mel chastising Dorian for her naughty actions (then it was running over Jessica, now it's forcing Charlie off the wagon). Remember when Delphina channeled Mel, and she and Dorian kissed!? Dorian should go on "The L Word"!

Expect Delphina to stick around for awhile. Not only will she have some interesting crosses -- and advice -- for Roxy, Tess, Bo, and the rest of the Cramers, but her portrayer, Lea Delaria, will play an interesting role in the forthcoming 1968 storyline.

BTW, Lea DeLaria is kind of awesome. She's an accomplished stand-up comedian, actress, and jazz musician. Also, she was totally in "The Rocky Horror Show" on Broadway, where she played Eddie (among other roles), who was played by Meat Loaf in the movie. Which is really hot.

What predictions do you have for the Llanview residents this summer?
