At a RuPaul's Drag Race viewing party, Canada's Drag Race host Brooke Lynn Hytes and season eight's Naysha Lopez discussed the inclusion of drag kings. Hytes advocated for diversity, expressing support for drag kings on the show. However, Lopez suggested they deserve their platform, likening it to J.Lo and Shakira's Super Bowl performance. Hytes countered, emphasizing that drag is a drag, regardless of gender presentation. Hytes' stance aligns with their experience hosting Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World, where a cisgender female queen performed as a drag king. The mere conversation sent Drag social media ablaze over the weekend. The debate highlights ongoing discussions within the drag community about inclusivity and representation.
