In the final installment of “As the Drag Queen Turns”, I have video of Shelby’s performances. I had to fumble around with the YouTube, but I finally got it working. (I’m not a kid any more and my techno-savvy pretty much ended with the VCR, so now every time I have to figure out how to work some new thing, I end up clenching my fist and telling it to get the hell off my lawn.)

So follow this link to four videos: the Swimsuit Competition (if you only watch one, watch this one. You will be astounded.), the Talent Competition, the Evening Gown Competition (featuring my beer can dress!), and the Awards Ceremony. We missed the actual crowning because we ere too busy jumping around, but you do get to see all the other contestants.

And if you’d like to see more bits of the event, others have posted some videos. Check out the Opening Montage where you can see the contestants before, during and after their transformations. And Oh. Mah. God. Miss Tara Ligament’s talent performance (she was a really amped up cheerleader with amazing legs. Go ahead, you’ll see.).

We had such a blast while we were visiting Stacy (that’s my friend who played Shelby Free). His friend, George, threw a party before the pageant and we met the most amazing bunch of people, it really was like walking into a whole new family of friends. We loved it so well that we’ll be back next year! Wooooo!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who sent donations and well-wishes to Stacy and Aid for AIDS. It means so much. With your help, Stacy raised over $8,500 – the most money that any contestant has ever raised. In all, the pageant raised over $350,000 for a worthy cause. Feels good, don’t it?

  1. The gown video made me tear up. *heart* That was some awesome and funny and sad stuff, all at once. The dress is AMAZING.

    Thank you stitchy for posting these videos. They made me smile.

    When a white trash drag queen in a beer can evening gown can win best in drag show, well…it makes me believe that anything is possible in America. (wiping a tear from my eye).

  6. quand on sait que la plupart des principaux hedges funds font la veille des armes, que les agences attendent le nouveau gouvernement les poings fermés et que le secteur bancaire Euro redoute tout simplement que le marché interbancaire n’implose, l’article de LEAP laisse songeur même si certaines perspectives à l’internationale sont potentielles…347a745
