A dazzling roster of drag superstars is coming together for the Drag Isn’t Dangerous telethon, which will “raise awareness and funds for LGBTQ+ causes and organizations that support drag and trans performers, especially in areas that are under attack.”
Producer Entertainment Group (PEG) is spearheading this one-night-only digital event, having partnered with several LGBTQ+ companies and organizations that include GLAAD, OUTtv, Trixie Cosmetics, SERV Vodka, and Five Senses Reeling, among others. Tickets for Drag Isn’t Dangerous are currently being sold for $20 at Moment.co/dangerous. The event will be live-streamed on Sunday, May 7 at 7 pm ET.
Trixie Mattel said in the release, “The only place where men in dresses sexualize children is a church.”
While, Bob the Drag Queen wrote, “The most traumatizing thing about drag isn’t harming kids, it’s getting sent home first on Drag Race… but I can't relate.”
Jacob Slane of PEG expressed his views on the recent political environment around drag performances, saying, “We are sick of it. These bans are not just about trans people or drag performers. It is a systematic subjugation of LGBTQ+ people.”
Through this campaign, he expects to show that drag performers are not dangerous groomers, sexual deviants, criminals, or whatever is the latest evangelical slur.
