	Jim Rose Circus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was founded in Seattle by Jim Rose in the early 1990s.
		Bebe the Circus Queen (Beatrice Aschard) would perform a variety of stunts such as having a watermelon placed on her back and split with a sword, laying on a bed of nails while weights were placed on her chest...
		Jim Rose himself performed in between acts, often committing masochistic deeds such as attaching paper currency to his forehead with a staple gun or driving a long nail into his nostril.

	Jim Rose Circus - 10/4/98
		Jim told him that he had a present for him, which the Enigma seemed pretty happy about (although the only thing that he was saying was just a series of grunts and groans, so I could be mistaken).
		Jim then walked to the side of the front row, looking for someone who was obviously terrified, to confirm that it was a live scorpion.
		Jim described it as a 'no-holes barred' contest where the aim was to put a strap-on dildo inside the other's mouth for a 1-2-3 count.

	Live Review: The Jim Rose Circus, Graceland, March 15, 1997
		Starting the show was Bebe the Circus Queen, a skinny ringer for Elvira, who walked barefoot up a ladder of swords, then lay topless on a bed of nails while Rose stood on her chest.
		Jim Rose is obviously a guy you don't screw with, as some audience participants found out when they wouldn't fake being hypnotized.
		Jim Rose knows how to keep a crowd on its toes and, as our MC, he never skipped a beat between his sardonic wit and frenetic stage energy.

	The flowering of Jim Rose - Arts - Entertainment - theage.com.au
		Rose's father was a real-estate assessor and an amateur magician who taught his son endless card tricks and sleight-of-hand illusions.
		With backstage access to the circus and its lurid sideshows, he was fascinated by the way the sword swallowers, fire eaters and motorcycle daredevils wooed the crowds.
		Rose learned how to become a human dartboard, lie on a bed of nails, and shove his face into shards of broken glass while getting a passer-by to stand on his head.

		Rose led the packed club of slightly intoxicated people through disgusting and sometimes lurid acts.
		Before B.B. left the spotlight for her role as Rose's assistant for the rest of the evening, she took a power sander to a metallic bikini she was wearing and shot hot sparks from her crotch.
		Rose is still the only person who is successfully touring with a circus sideshow of freaks and packing venues, where well-known bands sometimes fail to sell out shows.

		Rose has created his tour de force, a theatrical production that's the culmination of a career spent exposing the masses to testicle weightlifting and Mexican transvestite wrestling.
		Indeed, that's the lesson Rose learned when he first saw the Human Dartboard, which he says is "the first human marvel act that made my jaw drop." After that show, when he met the Dartboard, Rose remarked on the fact that so many people had fainted during the act.
		As a ringmaster, Rose single-handedly brought back freak-show amusements to the forefront of American culture, taking a nearly extinct form of circus entertainment and combining it with a modern rock 'n' roll sensibility.

		it was the hippest show happening, and Circus of the Scars is the recounting of the halcyon days of Rose and his troupe, spanning the globe, as they did, in their constant efforts to push the envelope of the senses and send the weak-kneed reeling--or, in some cases, hurling.
		The Jim Rose Circus Sideshow, with its many-wondered calvacade of freaks and characters, provide a background for probably one of the best road diaries as I've read in a long time.

	Crimson Celluloid :: Resident DVDvil :: The Jim Rose Circus Show
		Though “The Jim Rose Circus Show” had its first taste of fame during the 1992 Lollapalooza Festival, I first heard of it because of an episode of “The X-Files.”; In the 2nd Season episode, ‘Humbug’, Rose (along with veteran performer The Enigma) co-starred as inhabitants of a town peopled by ex-circus freaks.
		More recently Rose’s circus was featured on an episode of “The Simpsons” and had it’s own reality show on the Travel Channel, where cameras followed the troupe as it toured the country.
		As my senses reeled at the strange acts that were presented in the circus, there was one other thought that kept creeping up, based on my past experience working in special effects for haunted houses, and the theatre world.

		Jim Rose was the first on stage and put a spoon up his nose and swallowed 4 razor blades and a piece of cotton then spat out the cotton with the razor blades attached.
		We were then introduced to Bibi the Circus Queen who walked up a ladder made from swords and laid down (topless, to the approval of the audience) on a bed of nails and had Mr Rose stand on her.
		Having these maniacs running round the audience in pitch fl with chain-saws was, shall I say, an interesting part of the show while Jim Rose and Bibi squirted us with water pistols, good at first but dragged on a bit.

		Sword swallowers, hoop contortionists, escape artists, human pincushions and medieval magicians are just a few of the freaks and geeks who've toured with the Jim Rose Sideshow.
		Rose's personal feats include eating lightbulbs, pounding nails up his nose and eating razor blades.
		His compatriots are human marvels and daredevils who've spent years disciplining their bodies and learning ancient knowledge, and they're willing to do those things that your mother always said you shouldn't.

		Lifto's penile power lift are commonplace--Jim and his circus cronies call it a "falling ovation." Unfortunately, the police in Lubbock, Texas are having anything but falling ovations over Jim's idea of circus fun.
		I ask Jim how it feels to be crowned king of the freaks--he has, after all, appeared on episodes of The X Files and The Simpsons and has been featured in Newsweek.

		While I’d never heard of Jim Rose before, I took the opportunity to watch this disc on a plane coming back from Fort Lauderdale.
		Last and by far not least, there’s Enigma (who guest starred with Jim in an episode of “X-Files”), a man with a jigsaw puzzle (tattoo?) on every inch of his body.
		This is by far not for anybody with a weak stomach and certainly NOT for anybody under the age of 18.

		The last time Rose appeared in Edinburgh he left in a blaze of glory after his circus of freaks played to sell-out crowds at the 1999 Fringe.
		A short time later, Rose insisted that he would never bring his circus back to Edinburgh at Festival time and has not been seen in these parts since.
		The new show - called the Jim Rose Dubya Circus of Freaks - has been devised as a satirical look at America under the Bush administration and sees Rose stamping new political ground in addition to parading his bizarre performers.

		Amber Pie did the trick where you pass your body through a couple of unstrung badminton rackets, which is always a pleasure, though she wasn't a patch on Mr Frodo, the new Circus Oz contortionist.
		It made me think not of traditional circus acrobats, whose skill and training have some things in common with dancers and athletes, but of kids who play with their bodies and others' just to see what happens.
		Not to say that what the Jim Rose people do is easy, but that's not the point: the real point is that it's a gross-out.

	Gross-out ‘Jim Rose Circus Show’ expanded on DVD (printable version)
		Rose’s circus gained its fame on the early ’90s Lollapalooza tour — with other appearances on “The X-Files” and “The Simpsons” (Homer was a human cannonball).
		Rose’s hoarse circus-barker voice gets annoying fast and the stunts aren’t as unusual anymore.
		Instead of the Rose circus, if you want circus freaks, try the great 1932 movie “Freaks”; if you want to see the limits of human pain tested, watch the Bob Flanagan documentary “Sick”; and if you want gross-out stunts, get “Jackass.”

		THE JIM ROSE CIRCUS doesn't ride elephants or swing on trapezes, and if you're looking for three rings you'll more than likely find them attached to the sensitive portions of a troupe member's anatomy.
		But it's clear that Rose, 41, loves his work, and even an early morning interview reveals a little of the carnival barker within as he describes his chief attractions.
		The troupe -- which includes his wife BEBE and "THE ENIGMA," the jigsaw-tattooed character who starred with Rose on the most popular episode of The 'X' Files -- have already proven their ability to draw capacity crowds of 17,000 in Melbourne, Australia; 13,000 in Sydney; 11,000 in Barcelona, Spain ; and 14,000 in Edinburgh, Scotland.

		HE MAY once have been at the forefront of the freak circus game, resurrecting the entire genre in his 1990s heyday, but Jim Rose looked like a tired old has-been as he failed to ignite an up-for-it crowd at the Arches.
		Then Rose tripped on to the stage, a wiry chap with a handlebar moustache and receding hairline.
		Much has been made of Rose’s political references, his anti-Bush stance resulting in the deranged gang now being unable to get a gig in the US during election year, but this wasn’t apparent from his live performance, the only obvious dissent being a few rather weak "F*** George Bush" jibes.
