Watching ME TV, and an episode of the Ed Sullivan comes on, and there is a drag queen, Jim Bailey, who does his best, Judy Garland impression in 1969.

I had forgotten about him, but this brought back the memory. He did Phyllis Diller too.

Modern drag queens look like they’d be perfect for a remake of Killer Clowns From Outer Space.

I thought it would Flip Wilson with his alter ego Geraldine.

Yeah, but then it an act. Comedy, or burlesque.

I remember watching this with my father and brothers/sister at my Grandparents home and each one commenting as to whether they could “tell” if it was a man or not.

Not at all thinking of it sexually. At least I didn’t. More like a game - Can you tell, or not?

I finally know the meaning of the 70’s song “Go Jim Bailey”.

Drag Queens back then were a joke that people laughed at.

Today they are deadly serious and wish to be taken that way. And they want kids to take them seriously too.
