We love Margaret Cho. From her struggles with her body issues and feeling like an outsider because of her Korean-American heritage to her outrageous opinions on gay men and porn, she's become something of the ultimate fag hag—a term she famously adopted for herself as a celebration of her love for the gays in her life.

As if we didn't adore Margaret enough already, now she's gone and accepted a gig as the co-host of the upcoming GayVN Awards in San Francisco alongside Janice Dickinson and special guest Alec Mapa.

Unzipped caught up with Margaret to find out what she's got planned for the big night, who she's been fucking with a strap-on, and which porn star is her favorite.

So let's get on with the Cho, shall we? Read our exclusive interview after the jump...

Margaret Cho: Unzipped

You’re co-hosting the gay porn awards this year. Is this your dream come true?
Totally! I don’t know why I haven’t done it yet, but I’m thrilled to be doing it now. I’m pretty sure they asked me because I’m a big fan of porn in general, so it seems like the right thing for me. I think it’s going to be really cool.

When Billy Crystal hosted the Oscars, he used to start the show with song-and-dance routines about all the movies. How do you plan to get the party started?
I don’t know yet. I have to figure it out. I could do a song-and-dance. I mean, I really like songs about semen, and this would be the perfect venue for it. It’s essentially preaching to the converted—or to the perverted, as the case may be.

Have you seen very many of the nominated movies?
I haven’t actually. I need to be a member of the academy, so that I can get all that stuff for, um, research. Yeah.

Speaking of sexy award nominees, what was up with Sean Penn’s package in Milk?
Oh, my God! It was hot! He looked just like Harvey Milk—it was trippy. I think it was historically appropriate that his crotch was so big.

You’ve talked a lot in your stand-up about how gay porn has been part of your life. What’s your relationship to it now?
Well, now I’ve kind of gotten more into lesbian porn and kinky porn. Like, I hang out with a lot of the people from Kink.com, so they’re sort of my main porn friends now, but I need to get more into gay porn again. I wanna see more of the kinky leather stuff.

Speaking of Kink.com, have you tried out their Fucking Machine?
Yes! I tried the Sybian—not one of the real elaborate machines—just one of the basic ones. It was sort of like a kinky mechanical bull, which I liked. I would like to try some of the other machines, but I’m sort of scared they might go haywire on me, with all the smoke coming out, and it would be really scary.

What are your thoughts on slow-mo come shots?
I like them! You just know someone’s gonna make a movie called Cumdog Millionaire, and it’ll be nothing but slow-mo come shots coming at ya in 3D, with really hot Indian guys and Bollywood music. I would totally watch that!

We know that a lot of chicks really dig gay porn, especially lesbians. What do you think that’s about?
I just think it’s hot. I think people can appreciate beautiful people getting it on no matter what. I think it’s the same kind of impulse that men have when they want to watch two women together. I feel like women are very visual, too, and the male form is very beautiful, so I think it’s wonderful.

You’ve been known to take your clothes off a good bit in recent years. If you were in a porn film, what kind would it be?
It would have to be like a hardcore leather movie. Or maybe rubber. I’m such a leatherbear—I’m real like that.

Using the porn star equation of your first pet’s name and the name of the street you lived on as a kid, what would your porn star name be?
Lucky Washington, but I think I would just rather be myself. I did burlesque for a little while, but I kept my own name because it gets kind of confusing to have two names.

When’s the last time you fucked someone with a strap-on?
Hmm, what day is this? It was Monday—either Monday or Tuesday. I have a good strap-on because it’s a modified double-edge dildo so that instead of a harness, one end of it sticks in you. It’s so good. Lesbian engineering lately has gotten so off the chain, so I’m really happy about that.

You’ve talked a lot about body image in the gay community and how it’s affected by things like the media. Do you think there’s a possibility for porn to combat that at all?
I hope that there is. I think there is potential for that. Still, a lot of it perpetuates the body tyranny of slenderness and fitness, but I think there’s an opportunity in porn to really educate people and change their minds about different kinds of shapes and sizes and how everybody can be sexy. I think people would buy that—I do. The thing that I love about the way that my friends at Kink.com do it is that there’s a lot of variety and they show different kinds of beautiful and different kinds of shapes and sizes and ages. I feel like in the gay community, outside of the bears, there is less of that kind of accessibility or freedom in terms of what they feel is beautiful. So it’s a little bit of a tougher situation—and probably a tougher sell—but you know the gay boys.

Who is your favorite gay porn star?
Jeff Stryker. I mean, honey please, he’s the one that you need to know.

Can you give us a preview of something you might be commenting on at the GayVNs?
Well, I’ve been doing lots of sucking, and I think there’s, like, no ergonomic way to give head. My neck is so sore—I have hooker whiplash. Also, when you fuck a lot of people, like I've been known to, you get a lot of different kinds of jizz. This one guy that I fucked, his come was super clear, like aloe—like you could put it on a cut and it would heal. So I’m going to be talking about stuff like that. I won’t be holding back at all!

Perfect. If you were cast in a porn movie, which of your co-hosts would you want to do a scene with: Alec Mapa or Janice Dickinson?
I’d like to do it with both of them. I love that! I would have to be the bottom—always and forever—and I think it would be really, really fun.

I see Janice as a top, but Alec?
Yeah, why not? It could happen! I think it would be hot. Maybe we could even win an award next year for best three-way!
