Big Freedia’s ass is everywhere

New Orleans bounce queen storms Toronto and Montreal

Big Freedia (aka Freddie Ross) blew through Toronto and Montreal this week with a whole lot of ass-loving. In both cities the New Orleans-based artist, whose hits include “Azz Everywhere” and “Gin in My System,” preached her religion of bounce music.

“My definition of bounce is up-tempo. Heavy bass, call-and-response type music,” Freedia says. “It definitely has a lot to do with the ass-shaking, booty-popping onstage.”

If you missed Big Freedia’s show, don’t worry — she’s everywhere.

A documentary on Freedia is coming out soon; she’s starring in a new reality show, Almost Famous, launching this summer; and she’s also released a new workout DVD — so you can work your ass at home.
