Greetings from the Drag Grave

It's been a moment since i've blogged but i hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!! i promise that i'm back and blogging full time again (i'm thinking of it as pre-new years resolution). So since i'm playing catch up . . .

Behind the Scenes of a Faux Queen

So, this past weekend i was feeling nostalgic and extremely thankful for this amazing creative life i am living and i decided to go back through some (not all cause there is WAY TOO MANY) of my drag photos. Here are some of my favorite backstage photos from my 7 + years in the drag world. Enjoy!!

gearing up for miss texas ffi

today is going to be a dragstatical day!! not only are my dallas cowboys playing, but tonight is miss texas ffi (for female impersonators).

this pageant was my first foray into the world of drag pageants. i had danced in an ffi prelim with jenna skyy in 2007 and miss texas ffi 2008. she didn't win that year, but the experience was amazing and i've been hooked on drag pageants ever since.

the royalty at this pageant is like no other. i mean serious: alyssa edwards, layla larue (who now owns the system and was one of the first drag queens i ever saw), leyla e. o'hara, and the current reigning all american goddess, asia o'hara. what a legacy and what an amazing evening this is going to be for one special queen.

i'm looking forward to seeing all my drag buddies and fellow queens. make sure you check back later today for some pre-pageant outfit shots!
