China the Queen of it All “Remembers the Good Old Days of Cherry Grove”

Branded by her “Q-Tip” hair, short, provocative dresses, huge, decadent drag jewels, giant lashes framing her soulful eyes, and heels bigger than most men’s dicks, China isDrag Royalty, an iconic legend at age 87. Although warm and caring she’s on top of her game when it comes to Drag banter and sarcastic rivalry. While in the midst of a drag cornucopia, and a frenzied gathering of China’s friends and colleagues, she suddenly took a swig...

The FMs: “Eyes Are Suffering”

The genius behind The FMs, Matt Namer, was recently coaxed to relieve the inner-most essence of their new single “Eyes Are Suffering”. The band, known amongst other things as a true force in the sensibility and reconstruction of the complacency of the world, has once again created a powerful message, an anthemic reality within this explosive track. The band itself is an orgasmic anomaly, ready to right the wrongs of society in the most musically...

BARBRA HERR:  ALL LIP, NO SYNC!

One of NYC’s longest-reigning drag queens reclaims her own voice at The Duplex After 40 years in lip-sync showbiz, life has become a bit of a drag for one of the Big Apple’s oldest living — and working — gay nightlife legends. This summer, Bronx born drag legend Barbra Herr is leaving the concrete jungle for sunny Puerto Rico to care for her ailing father — but not before she reclaims her OWN voice on...

LOGAN  HARDCORE

WHEN I ENVISION LOGAN HARDCORE, THE FIRST WORD THAT COMES TO MIND IS “VIVACIOUS” AND THE SECOND IS “AMAZING.” LOGAN’S DRAG PERFORMANCES ARE NOT ONLY ENTERTAINING BUT FLAWLESS. SHE TAKES COMMAND OF HER AUDIENCE AND SIMPLY OWNS THE STAGE. CURRENTLY A CONTENDER FOR “RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE” SEASON SEVEN, THIS QUEEN POSSESSES A UNIQUE TYPE OF HONESTY AND OUTSPOKENNESS AS WELL AS A WILDLY FUNNY SENSE OF HUMOR. I ENJOYED INTERVIEWING HER IMMENSELY AS SHE MADE...

BIANCA DEL RIO ’YOU SELL YOUR SOUL TO THE DEVIL AND YOU NEVER AGE’

Bianca Del Rio is as good as it gets…and even better…when it comes to drag. Currently one of the three grand finalists on season six of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Bianca (aka Roy Haylock) is also an accomplished comedian, actor, singer and costume designer. She has so many credits to her name that I would require a separate issue of “Get Out!” to list them all. Adorned with a huge following, Bianca’s name was on the...

Alexander Pope

Straight from 2014 Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion week, I caught up with Alexander Pope, a fashion designer on this season’s “Project Runway”, to discuss his transition from drag DJ to Broadway to fashion and, finally, world domination . We talk about it all: From DJing at the hottest minimal electro clubs to becoming friends and co-collaborators with me, Acid Betty – The super hybrid drag bitch of the world who notably became famous for the fashions designed by Alexander Pope. Congratulations on ALMOST winning season 12 of “Project Runway”! Do you still hate me for convincing you to do it?...

Kashi Golean

Newly crowned “Miss Campy ” 2013, Kashi Golean travels four hours from her home in Albany to do a quick Long Island show, all equipt with makeup, wigs and handmade costumes, which make the audience laugh before she even reaches the stage to perform . “Watch out queens,” she has stolen the hearts of Long Island and NYC, as fellow queens now “live for her.” Her “downstate” followi ng is rapidly continuing to grow at enormous speed, and for those who do not yet know her, the time has come for her introduction. So Kashi Golean, how did you get...
