Leggs Up and Dancing – WOMR-FM 92.1

Not only is Lady Di and her weekly show, Leggs Up and Dancing, on WOMR-FM 92.1, back on the air on Friday, July 3, from 5 to 7 p.m., she’s also one of the first DJs on Outermost Community Radio to be literally back in the station’s Provincetown studios, which have been closed during the coronavirus pandemic.

After a four-month hiatus due to health problems, Lady Di will be back singing and grooving to the best tunes of the ’50s through the ’80s. Listeners can send in their requests to [email protected] in the week leading up to the show.

“With the music I play, I always try to lift people’s spirits,” Lady Di tells the Independent. “And I sing along with it, not necessarily in tune.”

Lady Di, who will have been on air 21 years this July, has thousands of listeners all over the world (streaming on womr.org). “I feel my purpose is to bring happiness to people, and maybe a little bit of light if there is any darkness in their lives,” she says. She has raised money for WOMR and countless charities. Lady Di is also known as Vernon Porter — Mason, life coach, and sought-after wedding officiant.

After the pandemic, Di says, “I hope people get educated, appreciate how precious life is, and learn to keep an open heart and open mind. Every single person is different, and they all have different attributes. If you treat people right, you’ll be treated right yourself.” —Saskia Maxwell Keller
