Photo of a drag performer with long blonde hair and glamorous makeup posing confidently against a solid blue background. She is wearing a fitted rust-colored dress with black gloves and holding a white mg. Her expression is animated, with a bright smile, and their outstretched arm and open hand suggest a welcoming or theatrical gesture. A faint play button overlay is visible over the image.

“What glues us together? I realized it’s love. I'm a drag queen, so I'm really good at loving myself and loving the way I look and loving the way my face looks in a mirror.”

From homeless teenager to the winner of RuPaul's Drag Race, Sharon Needles learned to love herself. In her hilarious and heart-felt talk full of drugs, alcohol, and cursing, Sharon describes the struggles of finding herself as an outsider artist and drag performer — and the complexities of fame and relationships. You’ll love this talk from our Pittsburg chapter.
