top 5 drag queens that you need to be following on instagram

What is there not to love about drag?

Drag is an inclusive, exciting and freeing form of self-expression, and we are HERE for it.

Since RuPaul’s Drag Race landed in 2009, drag has hit the mainstream, and we have been able to learn from the masters of the art.

Everyone has their own reality-show faves, however, we think you NEED to follow these queens…

RuPaul ( @rupaulofficial )

Erm HELLO, you cannot discuss the world of drag and exclude the most influential drag queen of our time – Mama Ru!

If you’re not already obsessed with their self-titled show RuPaul’s Drag Race then WHERE have you been?!

RuPaul has played a huge role in opening the eyes of drag to many people across the globe regardless of age, gender or sexuality. Ru has enabled people to understand the importance of this art form and provided a safe space to discuss topics rarely covered in mainstream media before.

This incredible icon sends a message of love, support and unity to every individual of every age. By creating a hub of love on the silver screen they have given a platform to our beautiful LGBTQ+ community, and for that Ru will always be a superstar.

Bimini Bon Boulash @biminibabes

With RuPaul’s Drag Race UK making a recent return to our screens in September we could not include this UK hun.

One quarter of ‘The United Kingdolls’ Bimini stole our hearts with their charisma and chic looks throughout their season of Drag Race. They are also partly to blame for ‘UK, Hun’ still being stuck in our head…

Despite not winning season 2, Bimini has gone on to thrive, with modeling gigs, cameos in music videos and their very own book!

This babe is a boss, and acts as a source of inspiration to us ALL.
