With Love, Valentina Drag Brunch hosted by The Biggest August & special guest Cookie Doe was amazing. Second drag brunch I've gotten to enjoy, August and Cookie put on a funny and talented show! That last lip sync mix was such a fun idea. Also give it up for the volunteer battlers, heck yeah to the energetic lip sync battlers! 🤘 Rocked it. ❤️
Today is an annual event on July 16 that aims to celebrate and recognize the drag art all around the world.
I only have one fic I have ever written partially about drag, and it's a RPF fic I wrote about AOC and Marjorie Taylor-Greene:
AOC...was shocked to suddenly learn that Marjorie had begun dating a man, named Brian Glenn, who directed programming at a right-wing broadcasting network. After that time, the aforementioned Georgian woman had limited her contact with AOC. She had curtailed it even more after it came out that her boyfriend had once dressed in drag. Her view on drag had softened from her previous hardline stance.
Here are several performances of drag queens that have had a major impact on contemporary culture.
And the villain in the Little Mermaid, Ursula, was based on a drag queen, Devine, as well (along with other examples)
Ursula, The Little Mermaid's villain—now played by Melissa McCarthy—was originally inspired by the drag queen Divine.
Don't underestimate the importance of body language!
The late muse of director John Waters, he delighted in inspiring outrage and disgust on and off screen.
The original Ursula was based on the drag queen Divine, who dominated counterculture as a fixture of John Waters’s filmography. The new vers
And then there's series like this
“Maxxie LaWow: Drag Super-shero” is an animated feature film telling the story of Simon, a shy young barista, who discovers a magic wig that
And of course, Bugs Bunny is a sort of drag icon
Even with the success of RuPaul's Drag Race, RuPaul may have some surprising competition for the title of Drag Superstar from Bugs Bunny.
Hello Tumblr. It’s been a long, long while. I think I stopped using this website back in 2018, and I was mentally checked out before then.
I used to lurk around here in the gaming communities. Was big on Markiplier and The Creature Hub (still am, honestly). Nowadays I’m more focused on my local drag community and fandom culture gives me a headache, but I wanted somewhere to yap and exercise my hobbies.
So, expect drag, expect stories about my OCs that are begging to escape my 7 sketchbooks, expect art here and there, maybe some photography, video game addiction, more video game addiction, and cat pictures.
THE BIG NEWS IN MY LIFE. My queer choir did a big show over Pride (at a pretty fucking big local theatre) (collaborating with a pretty fucking famous drag king), and I was one of the solo drag acts!
I came on about two thirds of the way through the second half, in this show all about celebrating queer joy, to do a big villain turn with 'The Smell of Rebellion', from Matilda the Musical, as a sort of mad pirate captain, and then got booed offstage by the entire 100+ person choir at the end of it, and it was AMAZING. I wanna be a big, tear-the-house-down queer musical villain literally every night of the week. I sweated so much, but my god, THIS IS THE SHIT I WAS BORN FOR. Soooooooooo much fun; I cannot imagine anything more fun than that.
Also, I made those trousers! First pair of trousers I've ever made. First anything I've ever sewn from a pattern. Not perfect, but damn if they didn't get the job done.
also also Dick Von Dyke wants to hang out and collab and be actual friends how cool is THAT
