Fenton Bailey, whose company World of Wonder produces RuPaul’s Drag Race, wants to take the LGBTQ-themed show global.
Speaking with iNews, Bailey talked about about the conservative opposition to transgender radicalism and drag shows for children, likening them to school bullies aiming to pick on the weak.
“In some ways, I think it’s very simple,” he told the outlet. “It’s like bullies at school, picking on who they think is the weak target. It’s great to create a climate of fear — pointing out what doesn’t seem normal to distract from the fundamental complexities that our political leaders are unable to deal with.”

Bailey asserted that “nothing” has been taken away from ordinary folk by this rapid change of culture, completely oblivious to the fact that qualified female athletes are being sabotaged transgenders and then being vilified if they dare to speak out about it.
Bailey said he hopes to take the show globally to places like China, Russia, and even Uganda.
“Sometimes people say, ‘Isn’t there too much Drag Race?’ I say no, because even though drag has always existed there are still countries where it is oppressed or forbidden. And so to me, what’s worth getting out of bed for, is to figure out how to make Drag Race China, or Drag Race Russia, or Drag Race Iran, because — although not didactically a political show — the message of Drag Race, of individuality and self-invention, of live-and-let-live, is what we need,” he said.
“It may seem ridiculous to say it: how long will it take to get Drag Race Uganda? But I believe it will happen. It may take a long time. It took about five or six years to get a UK version up and running. I couldn’t be happier that it’s on the BBC. But it’s a long game,” he added.

Putin stands in the way in Russia and we must have a regime change in order for drag queens to be able to groom children there.
Reprobates gone wild!
Good luck with that. For all the bitching that “trans-people” do about how horrible it is in the US, they are going to find out very quickly that countries outside of the declining West not only don’t celebrate LGBTQ++, but they hate and kill people who identify as such.
I’m surprised Afghanistan isn’t on their hit list of places to expand to.
Is there an app or website that allows you to bet on certain planes crashing?
If they went to Afghanistan secretly, they’d get a very different reception than if they went publicly ...
“Bacha bazi” is a real thing ...
Yes take it to Iran and leave it there!
Iran first.
Well don’t let us stop you! Load ‘em and get them over there. I know the Russkis and Muzzies will love it!
I’d pay good money to see him going to Iran and pitching the idea to the ayatollahs.
Russia first. Then when released from prison go to Iran and see what happens.
I thought the US is boycotting Russia? RuPaul is guilty of thoughts not in line with the west’s sanctions on Russia.
Russia? Iran?
Good luck. If they try that, they’ll soon see just how great America is. It might be eye-opening for them.
I am for RuPaul taking his show right outside of Bakhmut though.
Cool they should go there to film live on location, I’d actually watch it to see RuPaul get thrown off a roof
They can take it to Iran and Pakistan too
Great idea! I’m sure the Iranians will just love them.
I agree they should go.
Afghanistan or Iran would be great locals.
Absolutely. They should go to Iran. I think that would be an excellent choice of trip for them. Can I help buy tickets?
What assures you that this guy would be released from a Russian or Middle East prison?
