Divine lives!

Proving it's impossible to keep a good Baltimore drag queen down, even one who's been dead for 23 years, Charm City's own Divine is back this week, in the pages of Entertainment Weekly. As part of its feature on comedian Melissa McCarthy, EW dressed the recent Emmy winner (for "Mike & Molly") and star of this summer's "Bridesmaids" in a variety of guises – including the gloriously plus-sized Divine.

No word yet on whether McCarthy will be showing up in any John Waters movies.
