After attending a drag show for the first time, Saint Hoax was struck by the richness of this glamour oriented culture. He took a minute to actually look at the faux-queens and deconstruct their main components.
The recipe for an iconic queen:
- Flamboyant name
- Fierce persona
- Defining outfits
- Personalized hairdo
- A trademark feature
- One hell of a PR team
Saint Hoax then realized that it takes that same exact effort to make a leader. A rush of images containing Hitler's mustache, Bin laden's headgear, Obama's campaigns, Saddam's narcissism crossed through Saint Hoax's mind. It got him thinking that behind every "great" man, there's a queen. Like drag queens, political/religious leaders are expected to entertain, perform and occasionally lip-sync a public speech. But unlike drag queens, the fame hungry leaders don't know when to take their costumes off.
