LGBTQ+ Pride Month Show Spotlight: "We're Here"

 Remember how I said in my last post that many queens from Ru Paul's Drag Race have gone on to star in other shows? 

Ladies and gentlemen, exhibit A: "We're Here."

We're Here was on for four seasons on HBO Max. 

The first three seasons starred Eureka, Shangela, and Bob the Drag Queen.

Season Four starred Sasha Velour, Priyanka, and Jada Essence Hall. 

On the show, the drag queens traveled across the country, recruiting people (see what I did there?) to get drag queen makeovers and star in a town drag show. People from all walks of life, all genders, all colors - inclusive. 

True confessions - I have not watched Season Four yet. 

But I ADORED seasons one through three. 

So fun. 

So touching.

So much heart. 

So fabulous. 

These makeovers were transformative. 

I wish every homophobe was made to watch this show. 

Maybe it would change their narrow-minded views about gay people, especially about trans people. 

If you only watch two episodes, watch Florida Part One and Florida Part Two of Season Three.

But really, watch all of it. 

It will make you have all the feels.

Here's a clip from Season 1, with Hunter, and her Drag Mother Shangela:
