Fierce Hunty!

Drag Queens. Something I have found recently that I find beautiful and fascinating. so I decided to write a post about them because a lot of people are offended by them or they just really don't understand them!

RuPaul's drag race is a T.V. show I started watchin on Netflix about 3 months ago and that is where I fell in love. It's a show about drag queens competing to be the most fierce. It's exactly like America's Next Top Model, but drag queens competeing for the crown. They create their own outfits and create characters that are amazing. It's just such an art form to watch them transform into their drag character. Some were really amazing and beautiful some, not so much... Here are some of my favorites from the show:

Pandora Boxx

she is one that matches my personality like crazy. She has the "campy" sense of humor and is very much a fun loving queen. she has a certain style that is unique to her and is absoultely flawless on her. She is very down to Earth too. She isn't a bitchy queen and is willing to pour her heart out if you get the right setting. She loves talking to her fans too. I have had the opportunity to speak to Pandora through Twitter and Facebook. I love Pandora Boxx she is one queen that really showed me that we should be proud of who we are whatever past we come from.

Manila Luzon

Manila is a queen who is so funny and kwirky that it almost drives you nuts :) She knows what style is and knows how to pull it off well. She can paint her face like no one's business. (will explain terms in the end) Manila also has a single out that is called "Hot Couture" that song has gotten me through some hard nights at work. She knows how to werk the runway and is always talking to her fans. (fanilas) She likes to "like" posts from her Fanilas on facebook so that makes it fun. She lives in NYC and is always out doing her thang!

RuPaul

RuPaul is the supermodel of the world. she is in her fifties and she knows what it takes to reach the top. She has had a rough past and yet is on top. She is the drag queen of all drag queens. She has been around a long time and knows how to werk! She is the host of her own TV show, RuPaul's Drag Race and is so funny. There are so many inuendos it's hilarious. She knows how to talk to people and has such a positive outlook on life it is so inspiring. RuPaul is on my list of people to meet and of inspiring people. I sure do love her

Sharon Needles

Sharon Needles is a queen that is new in the industry. she pushes the limits and knows how to werk hunty! She is a drag version of Lady gaga! THe underdog and cinderella story on RuPaul's drag race season4 :) I absolutely love Sharon Needles I think she is inspiring and not a bitchy queen. She knows her stuff and knows what to do to turn heads. She is so fierce and I voted for her last season :) She also has such a good spirit. and is very very humble.

The terms that are very associated with drag queens are as follows:

Fish: an awesome queen that knows her stuff! and looks good

Paint: When a queen says paint your face it means putting make-up on and making her look purrty.

Werk: Another way to spell Work :)

Hunty: Another way to say Hunny

Charisma, Uniquness, Nerve, and Talent: Take the first letter of each of those words ;)

Anyway Just a little tad bit on my favorite queens and some cool things to know :)

  1. Have you seen the commercial that some did. It was a spoof of chick-fil-a. I think it was because they got kicked out or something, not 100% sure. But it was awesome!
