Just one week after Owensboro drag queen Monica Beverly Hillz became the first contestant to come out as transgender during the competition, sadly, she was eliminated on this week's RuPaul's Drag Race.
Apparently, January 2013 is the month that Owensboro gets national television exposure. Just last week, John Foreman of Old Hickory and Roy Henry of Boogalou BBQ battled it out for bragging rights on TLC's BBQ Pitmasters. And now, another Owensboro resident is going to battle for bragging rights in a competition with a . . . how do we put it . . . completely different flavor. Yep! Monica Beverly Hillz is set to take the runway on Season 5 of RuPaul's Drag Race!
Jon Brennan brought Owensboro national exposure when he was cast on MTV's The Real World. Teresa Cook, a.k.a. Kizzy, found her way onto Deal or No Deal. Apollo High School graduate Lisa Blades was recently featured as a model on Project Runway and Models of the Runway. And now, Monica Beverly Hillz, an Owensboro drag queen is about to gain national recognition when she competes on the brand new season of RuPaul's Drag Race!
