TIL about Jim Bailey:
In brief:
He performed in drag as Judy Garland, Phyllis Diller, Barbra Streisand, and several other performers, as well as alongside them, many of whom he was friends with
His TV performances included The Ed Sullivan Show, The Carol Burnett Show, The Dean Martin Show, The Merv Griffin Show, and many others
He performed all over the world for decades, including Carnegie Hall 9 times, London's Palladium 17 times, and numerous venues in Las Vegas, as well as at Super Bowl XII
He performed twice for England's royal family and for four US presidents
And as far as we know, he didn't groom anyone
So fuck off with all this anti-drag shit
