38 Days Until RuPaul’s DragCon: Q&A with Manila Luzon

We asked a few of the RuPaul’s Drag Race alumni a few questions about RuPaul’s DragCon, plus some silly questions because who doesn’t love silly answers? See what Manila Luzon had to say…

What do you always have in your purse at RuPaul’s DragCon?

I always carry a powder puff so my nose doesn’t get shiny and coupons for Wendy’s in case I’m hungry after a long night of drinking!

If you were a fruit or a vegetable, what would you be? Why?

People may assume I’m a pineapple, but I’m more like a watermelon because I feel real big from retaining water!

What’s the one thing you would avoid wearing or doing in drag at RuPaul’s DragCon?

Don’t wear anything boring! This is the place to dress up and feel like a queen!

Big Bird! I love feathers!

Since you’ve been to RuPaul’s DragCon before, what advice would you give to someone coming for the first time?

Buy my t-shirt!

I wore nine wigs at once for the cover shoot of my song “Ovahness.”

What is your all time favorite fashion moment from RuPaul’s DragCon?

I love all the mannequins of RuPaul’s gowns she wore through the years. Every look is iconic and surreal to see in person.

The dollar store! All the best drag looks come from the dollar store!
