In this glitter-soaked conversation, I sit down with the dazzling Rubella Vaxine to spill the tea on the many layers of drag. From the rush of the spotlight to the backstage battles with anxiety, Rubella opens up about the power of self-love in a world that doesn’t always “get” drag. We dive into the evolving LGBTQ+ scene, the magic of chosen family, and the fierce importance of inclusivity. With honesty and humour, Rubella also tackles body image and the misconceptions that cling to drag queens like last night’s lashes. This episode serves up realness, resilience, and rhinestones, shining a light on how drag transforms not just performers, but audiences too.
