What is a drag queen?

A drag queen is a person, typically a man, who dresses in exaggerated and often glamorous clothing and makeup as part of a performance art form. Drag queens often use elaborate costumes and makeup to transform themselves into characters with a strong sense of style and personality. These performances are often associated with the LGBTQ+ community and can be found in various contexts, including nightclubs, cabarets, and drag shows.

Drag queens may perform lip-syncing, dance routines, or comedy acts, and they often adopt a persona or stage name for their performances. The art of drag often plays with and challenges traditional gender roles and expectations, and it is a form of self-expression and entertainment that has a rich history in the LGBTQ+ community.

It's important to note that not all drag queens are gay or transgender; people of various gender identities and sexual orientations may engage in drag performance. Drag is a diverse and inclusive art form that celebrates individuality and creativity.
