You are sooo butt hurt over this.The next time there’s a chorus for student loan forgiveness, remember that our top schools are employing people like Vagistan.
When it comes to ‘LaWhore Vagistan’ at Harvard, I’m not even outraged — it’s hilarious
Harvard hiring a professor who goes by the drag queen name LaWhore Vagistan to teach a course on Rupaul shows the absurdity of academia.nypost.com

You’re the one advocating being a professional drag queen. Not me. Besides I’m semiretired. Mostly golf .
I should have been a professional golfer. They make far more money than dentists.

IDK. Before my time. I bet Harvard didn’t offer drag queen studies back then. It was no doubt a better school in those days.

Male prostitutes? Are you aware that not all Drag Queens are gay? Some are married.

AI Overview
Drag queen expenses include the costs of high-quality makeup, skincare, expensive wigs, custom costumes, and heels, which can range from hundreds to thousands of dollars for a single outfit or wig. Additional expenses involve regular beauty products, travel for gigs, and professional services like wig restyling. Costs can vary significantly, with dedicated performers potentially spending thousands annually on their drag, especially those competing on shows like RuPaul's Drag Race where high-caliber looks are expected.
Makeup & Skincare
Cost: Expect to spend regularly on professional makeup, such as eyeshadow palettes, foundations, contour kits, and lipsticks.
Products: High-quality brands can cost between $20 and $100 for palettes, and lipsticks can be under $10 each.
Frequency: You'll need to replenish these supplies, along with skincare products, makeup remover, primers, and moisturizers, on a regular basis.
Wigs
Cost: Wigs can cost anywhere from $20 for basic styles to over $700 for high-quality, lace-front wigs.
Professional Services: Wig styling and restyling can cost $50 to $200, depending on complexity and hair needs.
Time Investment: Some queens, if skilled, will take apart and sew wigs together or restyle them themselves, which can be a multi-hour process.
Costumes & Outfits
Cost: Custom-made costumes can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars. Basic outfits might start around $200.
Fabric & Supplies: Making your own requires investment in fabric and sewing supplies, with fabric alone potentially costing $70 or more.
Essential Items: You also need to account for tights, padding to create a figure, and sturdy heels.
Other Expenses
Accessories: Jewelry, falsies, and other accessories are a regular part of a drag look.
Transportation: Gas money or ride-hailing services are needed to get to and from gigs.
Professional Services: Fees for agents, managers, or other personal assistants can add to the cost.
Promotional Materials: Expenses like professional photos, portfolios, and website costs are necessary for promotion.
How it Adds Up
Overall Cost: While some queens spend moderately, others can spend over $10,000 annually, or even much more for high-end looks.
Drag Race Pressure: Queens on competitive shows like RuPaul's Drag Race face immense pressure to deliver expensive, high-quality looks for each challenge, sometimes leading to significant debt.
