Meet The Queens Of TLC’s ‘Drag Me Down The Aisle’
Any bride could probably say she wished she had a few extra hands and creative minds behind her wedding day. For one lucky bride, that wish has been granted on TLC’s newest wedding special “Drag Me Down The Aisle.”
The new series, according to a press release, follows Amish Country bride Emily, who seeks the help of four drag queens to help her create and plan the perfect wedding—within three weeks.
“[Emily] is newly engaged, head-over-heels in love with her fiance and excited to get married; but deeply rooted body image issues have her second-guessing her ‘dream’ dress, and an extremely tight budget has not allowed her the fairytale wedding she had hoped for,” the release states.
Cue her new helpers—four Drag Queens with plenty of experience when it comes to weddings. The queens will help her with all aspects of her big day from “the dress to the venue to the inner glow a bride always strives for.”
So who are the Queens who will be helping her on this journey? Get to know the fabulous ladies below.
Alexis Michelle:
Best known for her fifth-place finish during Season 9 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Michelle is also known for her work helping hundreds of brides get glam for their big day as a professional makeup artist. You can follow her on Instagram @alexislives.
Bebe Zahara Benet:
Benet made history as the first-ever winner of “Drag race,” taking the title in the show’s first season, before returning for Season 3 of “All-Stars,” where she placed third alongside Shangela. In addition to her career as a performer, she is a seasoned event planner and even launched her own company, Revel Entertainment, in 2016. Follow her on Instagram @bebezahara.
Jujubee:
A seasoned expert on “RuPaul’s Drag U,” Jujubee placed third on “Drag Race” Season 2 and again landed in that spot alongside Shannel on “All-Stars” Season 1. She has worked as a professional makeup artist for MAC cosmetics and can be followed on Instagram @jujubeeonline.
Thorgy Thor:
Thor placed sixth during “Drag Race” Season 8 and ninth during “All-Stars” Season 3, and music may just be her calling. She is a trained musician who can play the violin, viola and cello, so she is likely going to be a big help for Emily in that department. Follow her on Instagram @thorgythor.
