@ABC y’all do realize there are other lesser know drag queens outside of Ru girls right?!? Please start giving local queens a moment to shine.
Gottmik is she/her? I thought he is a transman? I’m confused.
This is embarrassing.
Tell that demon to stay tf away from kids

I'm Thai who lives in UK
this actually could of included actual ballroom history and show the importance ball culture has had on pop culture
Why are Gotmik's pronouns She/Her, here(2:23)? Is that for the character of Gotmik and Cade the Artist behind Gotmik pronouns are He/Him?

Exactly. It’s a DIP not a DEATHDROP.
Men dressing up as woman? Disturbing
Posing in windows 🤣⚰️

Yes gawd. I am so proud to be queer.
TO EACH THEIR OWN
And in come flying the uncultured homophobic comments.
The current culture of drag is a co-opted culmination of urban Black culture; lexicon, etc. The roots of present day drag are Black roots.
So is current pop culture; especially "twitter slang".
They definitely got some of the pronouns wrong 😑
Why are the media promoting these crazies lol america is doomed beyond repair
Uhmmmm Gottmiks pronouns were listed wrong.
What’s Cara Delevingne got to do with any of this?
Very needed in times like these. Thank you for helping others learn our history. ❤️
Some of my favorite humans! I am in awe of your courage. You are so appreciated and loved. Please know that.
