I've been looking at a lot of Facebook and YouTube videos on Bianca Del Rio, the winner of this season's "RuPaul's Drag Race" (if you've not watched the finale by now, I'm sure you've had it spoiled already). The more I see of her online, the more I enjoy her work. I knew she and an editor buddy have been doing fundraising for an independent movie called Hurricane Bianca, starring Roy Haylock (Bianca's real name) as a schoolteacher who gets fired for being gay and then comes back as Bianca to exact revenge. It looks like it could be very funny, so I really hope they garner enough money. I'll be contributing soon I think.

During the finale, they did a retrospect on drag and its place in history, including drag queens who were social activists, actors/singers, and famous comedians who had drag characters, such as Flip Wilson's Geraldine. It wasn't entirely serious, because when they got to Lady Bunny, they described her as:

Lady Bunny Filthy Bitch

I admit, I bust out laughing at that one.
