From the stages of New York to the finals of Britain's Got Talent, drag queen and opera singer Jasmine Rice LaBeija is redefining what it means to be an artist in 2025.
In this powerful interview with our team, Jasmine opens up about:
🌟 Breaking barriers on international platforms
🎵 Blending opera and drag artistry
💪 Standing strong against rising anti-LGBTQ attacks
🏳️⚧️ The importance of visibility and representation

Drag is art. Drag is culture. Drag is unstoppable. 👑
