'''Drop Dead, Gorgeous''' is a six-member post-hardcore/metalcore band from Denver, Colorado.

They released their first [[EP]] entitled [[Be Mine, Valentine]] in January 2006, followed by their first full length album in May 2006, [[In Vogue]]. They could only tour for 3 months across the U.S. and through Canada a year due to the fact that their members hadn't graduated high school yet. News also broke out on October 20th, 2006, on Rise Records' website, that they recently signed to [[Geffen Records|Geffen/Suretone Records]], and their new record would be produced by [[Ross Robinson]]. They filmed a music video for "Dressed for Friend Requests" when they played their homecoming show in Denver over their last 2006 tour before heading into the studio to record the follow up to ''In Vogue''. The new record entitled "Worse Than A Fairy Tale" was released on August 14th 2007, and was leaked on the internet on July 31th. The band has seen some lineup shifts since August 2006 after 2 years of having the same six members, however as of June 2007 the original lineup was intact again.
