Hosted by veteran drag performer RuPaul, Drag Race features drag queen entertainers vying for the title of “America’s Next Drag Superstar.” Since premiering in 2009, the show has become a queer cultural phenomenon that successfully commodifies and markets Camp and drag performance to television audiences at heretofore unprecedented levels. Over its nine seasons, the show has provided more than 100 drag queen artists with a platform to showcase their talents, and the Drag Race franchise has expanded to include multiple television series and interactive live events.

After talking to producers beginning in 1998, RuPaul Charles premiered his namesake reality show, RuPaul’s Drag Race (RPDR) in 2009 (Daems 14). The show, with the potential to break down barriers of gender expression and sexuality, has had a fair share of controversies—particularly surrounding transphobia and misogyny.

Drag has recently become popularized through various visual media. This study uses visual media and political queer theory to analyze drag’s association with the building block of society: the family unit. Through use of contemporary content analysis and survey data, this thesis examines how the rise of drag in visual media, specifically the television show RuPaul’s Drag Race, has transformed the political structure of drag families.

    WHERE’S MY THANKS: CITIZENSHIP AND THE REGULATION OF QUEER LATINOS IN CONTEMPORARY POPULAR CULTURE By R. GABRIEL MAYORA A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2016 © 2016 R. Gabriel Mayora To mami, papi, Yesu y Reyving por ser mis ángeles en la tierra y por los sacrificios que hicieron para que yo llegara a este punto. Su sabiduría y amor son la mejor herencia. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Though I wrote this dissertation myself, it feels like it belongs to the countless of people who helped me every step of the way. I dedicate this dissertation to Ramón and Maritza Mayora, mami y papi, who gave up everything so that I could have a place in the world. My siblings Yesu y Reyving worked all kinds of jobs to support our family when we immigrated to the U.S., and without them, I simply would not have had the chance to be doing what I chose to do. Yira’s unconditional support helped make this journey a lot more bearable. Without the input and enthusiasm of Efraín Barradas, Amy Ongiri, and Kim Emery, I would be completely lost. I thank them for asking the tough questions; my work is stronger because of them. Creed Greer, Martin Simpson, Terry Harpold, and Kenneth Kidd kept me employed so that I could actually afford to work on this project. Without Leah Rosenberg, Sid Dobrin, Emilia Hodge, Sarah McLemore, who helped me receive the Delores Auzenne Dissertation Award, I would not have been able to finish it.

    PONTIFICIA UNIVERSIDAD CATÓLICA DEL PERÚ FACULTAD DE CIENCIAS Y ARTES DE LA COMUNICACIÓN Reality show y discurso de género: una mirada a la teoría de la performatividad de género en el reality show Rupaul’s Drag Race TESIS PARA OPTAR EL TÍTULO PROFESIONAL DE LICENCIADA EN COMUNICACIÓN AUDIOVISUAL AUTORA JIMENA ALEJANDRA MENDEZU ROSAS ASESOR GUILLERMO VASQUEZ FERMI Lima, Junio, 2020 Resumen Esta investigación tiene como objeto de estudio al reality show Rupaul’s Drag Race, el cual es analizado a partir de la teoría de la performatividad de género de la filósofa estadounidense Judith Butler, donde la autora toma como ejemplo a la performance drag para mostrar que el género es se performa, es decir, que se construye y da la ilusión de ser una esencia a través de los actos performativos. Para Butler, las drag queens imitan y actúan el género para hacer su performance, por lo que evidencian esta performatividad. Mediante el análisis del discurso, analizaremos bajo una mirada cualitativa-deductiva siete capítulos del reality show para reconocer si se cumple o no la performatividad del género en ellos; además de identificar en qué segmento de la estructura narrativa del programa se muestran más y quiénes son los personajes dentro del reality que más se acercan a este concepto. Finalmente, como conclusión principal hallamos que la teoría de la performatividad se cumple, en su mayoría, en el reality show Rupaul’s Drag Race y que son las drag queens que se acercan más a este concepto a través de lo expresado verbalmente por ellas en la ejecución de los desafíos principales del programa y la presentación de sus personajes en la pasarela.

  • Feminist “Realness”
    HEGEMONIC “REALNESS”? AN INTERSECTIONAL FEMINIST ANALYSIS OF RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE by Sarah Tucker Jenkins A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida May 2013 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express her sincere thanks to her thesis advisor, Dr. Christine Scodari, and her thesis committee members, Dr. Barclay Barrios and Dr. Wairimu Njambi for their feedback and support.

Lastly, a big thank you to her entire family and all her friends, for their unending support and encouragement. iii ABSTRACT Author: Sarah Tucker Jenkins Title: Hegemonic “Realness”? An Intersectional Feminist Analysis of RuPaul’s Drag Race Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Christine Scodari Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2013 RuPaul’s Drag Race is one of the few reality television shows focusing on QLGBT (queer, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) identified individuals that has made it into mainstream consciousness. RuPaul’s Drag Race debuted in 2009 and appears on the channels, Logo and VH1. This thesis analyzes the four seasons from 2009 through 2012. RuPaul’s Drag Race provides a unique perspective on the ways that gender identity, sexuality, size, class, race, and ethnicity intersect and interact in people‟s lives.
