Dame Edna Everage promoted her current Broadway return Back With a Vengeance on ABC's "Live with Regis and Kelly," Nov. 17.

Upon her entrance, the First Lady of Australia shamelessly milks the audience for applause. During her appearance, she described her colorful dress — designed by her son Kenny — as his "Tattoo" dress, "inspired by a tattoo on his roommate's left buttock."

Dame Edna: Back With a Vengeance officially opens on Broadway Nov. 21. Written and performed by Barry Humphries with additional material by Andrew Ross and Robert Horn, Dame Edna also features Wayne Barker as the Master of the Dame's Musick; the Gorgeous Ednaettes, Teri DiGianfelice and Michelle Pampena; and the Equally Gorgeous TestEdnarones, Randy Aaron and Gerrard Carter.
