Drag queen “Clint Torres” walks the runway as part of a dance showcase as audience members wave money as tips. Several students came up to the stage to offer money. Iowa State’s LGBT Alliance hosted its annual drag show on Oct. 31 in the Memorial Union. The show followed a Halloween theme as participants wore costumes, body paint and unique outfits.

The Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Ally Alliance held a drag show to help fund-raise for members of the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender community to go to the Midwest Bisexual Lesbian Gay Transgender Ally College Conference, or MBLGTACC.

The show was on Halloween night and twenty five drag queens and kings performed. The show lasted around two and a half hours.

Some performances that crowd got riled up were Cuntarina VandeKamp’s “Epic Mix” finale, LaBry So Fly’s performance of “Good Kisser” by Usher, and Omaria Demornay’s performance of “Partition” by Beyonce.
