Kevin Bacon and his wife Kyra Sedgwick have re-affirmed their status as fabulous queer allies by dancing to Taylor Swift in opposition to oppressive drag bans. There are certain things that we had on our 2023 Bingo cards. A new season of All Stars, for example. Rihanna using her Super Bowl performance to promote Fenty Beauty. Unfortunately, continued attempted oppression of queer performers and trans people in the United States was also on there. What we didn’t necessarily have down was Kevin Bacon coming out as one of the loudest voices opposing the aforementioned anti-queer bills being passed across the United States. Following a Footloose-inspired challenge on Drag Race, the omnipresent actor Instagrammed his support of the episode, then gave another message of support at the reunion – and has now completed his hat trick of allyship. He wrote, “#DragBans are bad karma. Right now, drag performers and the LGBTQIA+ community need our help.”
Currently, anti-LGBTQ+ bills are being passed across the United States at an alarming rate, targeting everything from a drag artist’s right to perform in public to a trans individual’s ability to access gender-affirming healthcare. That’s why, as evidenced by Kevin Bacon, the support of allies is crucial.
