Notes / Anecdotes | Beauty Kills was also called The Bil Bike Story. This was one of the few shows Michael was in that was considered a drama. The playwright, Emilio Cubeiro, was an eccentric straight man who loved to wear leather and notoriously participated in S & M in the city. He gave Michael his first tattoo.
