Drag Queen Story Hour For Your Kids

Los Angeles drag queen, Lil Miss Hot Mess has just released a children’s book The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish for all those on quarantine with little ones looking for some fun time with drag queens.

Drag Queens and children? YES! or should we be cliché and say, “YASSSS!” For all those parents who understand that you can’t catch drag queenness by letting a drag queen read, much less write, a storybook to your child, we have a great addition for your library!

She’s unable to go on her book tour because she had too many Coronas… no, that’s not it, COVID-19, that’s right, it’s us who had too many Coronas. (Let’s be honest, can you have too many?) But we digress.

This queen is doing for you parents out there, so let’s get the word out and buy her book! It’s available on Amazon, just click this LINK. Of course, you can always visit Amazon directly and look up The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish or you can click on all the links in this post to get there directly.

GO FUND DRAG!!

Drag Queens In Need GoFundMe Image

Some more great news in light of all the weird news we’ve seen lately. There is a hero amongst us and her name is Zoe Tobocman also known as @truffleandbass on Instagram. She is the creator of the “Queens in Need” GoFundMe page.

She loves drag… as she and everyone should… and wanted to help out those who have been affected by not being able to perform for their audiences and subsequently not having enough money for their needs. As “they” say, “it costs a lot to look this cheap”.

Enter the QUEENS IN NEED GoFundMe page which she has promised to donate 100% of the proceeds to the drag queens who apply for assistance. Apparently she works better than unemployment or other government agencies in her quick response and qualifications.

Make sure you share the link to the GoFundMe page so we can get more visibility and CLICK HERE for the application.

HUGE SHOUT OUT TO ZOE TOBOCMAN/@truffleandbass for creating this and NATALIE RENEE@dragenthusiast for partnering with us on getting the word out.

As an added bonus, Drag Queens Galore is donating a $25 Amazon Gift Card at random selection to one of the generous donors to the GoFundMe

Where are the queens?

A brief summary of how you can get some more drag queens on TV outside of the competition shows

Willam in Wig

Do you ever feel like when you watch these “drag shows” you really wish you could see more of them outside of the competitions?

Well, I guess Mama Ru does too because as usual, she’s brought her favorites to her Netflix show with her. Now we all know Moms don’t have favorites (wink wink) but let’s face it, there are clearly some she wants to be around a little more often than others. The Netflix show AJ and The Queen follows a queen and her incredibly insightful young co-star on a journey of miles and miles of self maturity and experience.

What about other shows like Dragula? Will The Boulet Brothers make a feature-length film, we can already tell they like to tell stories by the intros of the competition show Dragula, also on Netflix. Will we get the full story in one long piece or will they leave the acting chops to Ru and continue with the chopping of heads of the losing contestants? Unfortunately, we don’t have any inside scoop on that yet, but we’ll keep asking The Boulet Brothers once they remove the restraining order.

In the meantime, we urge you to watch as much of the projects the queens do to keep them booked and working. Local queens (Non-Drag Race contestants – as of the publishing of this story) like Misty Violet, Allusia, and the LA gang can be seen in Cherry Pop with Bob The Drag Queen, Tempest DuJour, and more. While documentaries like “Wig” on HBO show off a slew of New York Queens when they pulled off the revival of Wigstock.

Whatever you do, get some more drag in your life because life is just too serious and drag queens let us have a good time and escape for a while. Thank you to all the queens who support us and entertain us and help us get through life with some laughter and flare. It can’t be easy in those heels and wigs… not to mention the tucks – AKA prison for your jewels.

Debut single from queer Scottish artist encourages Britons to vote

Debut single from queer Scottish artist encourages Britons to vote

Queer Scottish artist Ripley is to release their debut single in the lead-up to the general election to encourage young voters to take action.

The spacey disco stomper Electric Democracy is released 6 December 2019 and will be available to stream or purchase on Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp and iTunes.

An exclusive press preview of the track can be listened to here: https://soundcloud.com/ripleydq/electric-democracy-press-preview-only/s-F9zpW

The song explores Britain’s divided politics, the rise in xenophobia, fear of Brexit and a growing sense that many Britons feel unrepresented by today’s main political parties.

‘So much British pop shies away from the crisis the United Kingdom is currently in,’ says Ripley. ‘Electric Democracy holds a mirror to the country, to its politicians and calls for change. But it also places emphasis on the individual. We all need to take responsibility. We need to get up and vote if we’re to get the UK out of this awful Tory mess.’

Electric Democracy is produced by Allan McIntyre, whose previous work includes remixing singles by DJ Jon Pleased Wimmin and Scarlet Fantastic and co-producing remixes for Paloma Faith and U2.

McIntyre adds: ‘We thought it was ideal to give voice to our very real concerns about the state of our democracy, but in an upbeat, funky and pant-wetting way!’

Ripley is an Edinburgh-born political cabaret artist turned musician who has gained critical acclaim with the satirical Like A Sturgeon show, which was listed as one of the must-see Edinburgh Festival Fringe shows of 2018.

Electric Democracy is Ripley’s first foray into creating original music and leads a string of protest pop songs set to be released independently in 2020.
