Drag Queens and Dancing

I can certainly say that life here in London is definitely not boring. Last week my friend Lisa asked me if I wanted to go to a drag show on Sunday, to which I replied, count me in! I mean, how can you say no to a drag show?  Her friend was performing and we were going as moral support.  So, on Sunday night, I walked into Ku Bar in Leicester Square and was greeted by one of the most beautiful Queens standing a towering foot and a half above me, with a body to kill for!   That would be Vicki Vivacious...our hostess for the evening.  I knew by the look of things that this was going to be a fun night! The acts for the evening were Josie Quant (I will leave out the nickname they gave Josie as my mom reads this blog) and Misty Lee.  Vicki and Misty sang a few little ditties (yes I just called them ditties) and Josie did a bit of comedy.  I have to admit, I think one of my favorite things about drag queens is the lack of filtering that occurs, those bitches will say anything...and I LOVE IT!  I mean, honestly, why hold back?



One thing that make the night interesting was in attendence was a "Stag/Stagette" party do and it was a mix of gay men, straight men and women.  The straight men were deathly afraid of the drag queens, the girl's were obnoxious and the engaged couple were total diva's.  They made for some comedy over the evening and the made me want to either get into a fight or tear my hair out at other parts of the evening.  I happy to have the show end only to be done dealing with this party, but sad that the show was over as it was so much fun!

Lisa and I were going to take off after the show but were persuaded to stay by a couple of the guys that Lisa knows. We danced with some really adorable and handsome men all night long.  I had a good laugh after we left when I told Lisa that all my friends are telling me how I am going to meet some gorgeous men while I am here...and I have, but they are all gay!  I have to admit though, I've really missed having gay men in my life.  I have my darling Jack in New York, of course but I am really loving it here in London :)
