Weird – I thought I had posted this video but it was left in my drafts….Played it on the podcast ages ago!
I had heard the name Bimini Bon-Boulash being banded around (not being a Drag Race fan the UK version passed me by partly for reasons as described by Ginny Lemon, I like punk/transgressive drag not the glamorous US variant. But even I saw the clip where Bimini talked about being non-binary with Ginny Lemon, I think both the first enby draq queens on the show?).
I saw this on my recommends list on YouTube and went ‘ooh’. A mix of punk, electro, UK hip hop, pop, like a Drag Prodigy, Sleaford Mods or RatBoy and an unapologetically working class ‘gender freak’. How can you not love this?
And it turns out Bimini has great taste in music – I mean spookily similar if you tune into their Pride 6Music show which goes from Peaches and Lily Allen to Scissor Sisters and David Bowie – not surprised they worked at NY Downlow at Glasto, I suspect they must’ve been to Duckie as well with that playlist.
