You already know that I have a deep love for drag. I'm in such a great mood today, I wanted to share with you some incredibly talented drag performers of Montreal... because, as the great Kim Chi once said...
If you can name every single drag race queen but can’t name ten local queens in your hometown, you’re a drag race fan, not a drag fan.
Here are 15 drag queens that help make Montreal internationally known as the huge arts and entertainment metropolis it is.
Follow these queens on Instagram by clicking the posts below - I've also linked their Facebooks and available events in the paragraphs underneath!
Rita Baga
I've said it before, and I'll say it again - Rita Baga is a force in the Montreal drag scene. She has produced and hosted some of the biggest drag events in town, and you can catch her performing all over the city. She is currently hosting MX Fierte's Drag Race Canada every Sunday night at Cabaret Mado's.

Rainbow Drag
Rainbow Drag is what fabulous gay dreams are made of. She is bright. She is colourful. She is a god damn professional. Seriously, I've been to her shows - which she produces herself - and they're nothing less than spectacular. I'm talking backup dancers, confetti explosions and killer choreography.
See what's hiding on the other side of the Rainbow, right here!
Ana LaSabrosa
Anaconda LaSabrosa is your glamorous latina punk rock trash queen - and she does it so well. Anaconda delivers a gender-bent drag style that has paved the way for unique drag artists, everywhere.

Verona Verushka
Verona Verushka is a major talent, guys. Seriously, I just saw this queen perform for the first time on Valentine's Day, and I was floored. The Verushka brand of drag is unique and absolutely required in our city. If her performances weren't enough to suck me into a dark little hole of admiration - the makeup skills behind this queen would do it. Someone give this queen a YouTube Channel, immediately!

Kitana Sweett
A no-brainer, Kitana Sweett is must-have for any Drag list. She is as sweet as her name suggests, and she is also one fierce ass bitch. Kitana had been hosting the Drag Race viewings for past seasons, her looks are always on point and she is easily one of the funniest comedians our city has to offer.
Kitana Sweett is celebrating her 10-year Drag Birthday with a brand new show on April 5.

Tracy Trash
Here we have a formidable Cabaret Mado's staple - Tracy Trash! I've been seeing Tracy at Mado's long before I was ever able to call Montreal a home. She was one of the first names that came to mind when thinking of the Montreal Drag scene.

Gisèle Lullaby
A queen with all the moves, Gisèle Lullaby is a choreography assassin on the stage. She is a resident performer at Cabaret Mado and her high energy on stage has claimed her a spot on this list.

These 15 fabulous queens only scratch the surface of the Montreal drag scene. This list was in no way a ranking of who is the best or has the best make-up, or tightest tuck, or whatever type of ranking you'd like to think it is.
If Drag Race was a show based in Montreal, I'd say this would be a pretty incredible cast!
I will do another edition of this blog sometime. When I was writing this list I was overwhelmed by all the queens I wanted to include. So if I missed you - I apologize and please note that its nothing personal, you're all fabulous!
ALL of these queens bring something special to the Montreal drag table, and you ought to take a seat.
Get out. Support your local drag artists and have some fun!
