00:00Queen of Drag? Sure, why not?
00:02I think I sustained a career for long enough to earn that title.
00:07You know, I've always felt like I was the Queen of Drag anyway.
00:12You know, there was a time when drag was really underground.
00:15During the Bush era, it's right now bigger than ever.
00:18In fact, our show has resurrected club life.
00:23With all the 100 girls who are out there who have come through our show,
00:26they've revived the gay nightclub business.
00:29I'm really proud of that.
00:30I'm most proud though of launching the careers of these kids.
00:34They had careers before, but launching them on an international level.
00:42No, I don't dream in drag.
00:44You know, I've never felt like this body is actually my Alpha and Omega.
00:51I've always felt like the spirit inside this body.
00:54So that's why I've always felt compelled to dress it up and have fun with it.
00:57But I know this body, it won't last forever.
01:00It's a temporary thing.
01:02This body is like a little shell.
01:04And that's why I've always said, you know, you're born naked and the rest is drag.
01:08Everybody is in drag.
01:09Whether they are willing to admit it or not, we all put on an outfit to face the world.
01:18It's really interesting to watch people, men and women, straight or gay, in drag because
01:24it allows other people to see the dark side of the moon or the other part of the personality
01:29that you don't get to access.
01:32It's very freeing, not just for gay people, it's freeing for everyone.
01:36Drag doesn't obscure or hide who you are, it actually reveals who you really are.
01:42I'm doing forever.
01:42I am doing forever.
01:44I don't know.
