    volume 9 issue 17/2020 “LIP-SYNC FOR YOUR LIFE” (ABROAD) THE DISTRIBUTION, ADAPTATION AND CIRCULATION OF RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE IN ITALY Luca Barra Dipartimento delle Arti, Università di Bologna [email protected] Paola Brembilla Dipartimento delle Arti, Università di Bologna [email protected] Linda Rossato Dipartimento di Studi Linguistici e Culturali Comparati, Università Ca’ Foscari, Venezia [email protected] Lucio Spaziante Dipartimento di Filosofia e Comunicazione, Università di Bologna [email protected] Abstract: The article aims to critically explore and understand the ways both RuPaul’s star persona and its show, RuPaul’s Drag Race, are distributed in Italy, circulate across, and impact on the Italian television industry and media culture. It also aims to express how many forms of national mediation, professional negotiation and audience reception deeply modify, and re-shape the TV product. To tackle the manifold facets of this case, four aspects will be analyzed: (trans)national distribution; adaptation and dubbing; global/local stardom; reception and cultural impact. Over a decade, the Italian edition and distribution of the show have changed, together with the national media landscape and its audiences. Keywords: Italian television, media industries, reception studies, dubbing, stardom, celebrity 1 Introduction RuPaul’s Drag Race is a TV show, a reality competition with drag queen contestants performing and being evaluated by expert judges, which has reached the eleventh season and given birth to several extensions and spinoffs. In the US, the program has long been broadcast on linear channel Logo (2009-2016), and has then moved to VH1 (2017-), which is part of the same company, Viacom.

  • View Gender Performance and Transgression As It Relates to a Long-Standing System of Domination and Oppression in Latin America
    Gender Transgression and Hegemony: the Politics of Gender Expression and Sexuality in Contemporary Managua Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By John Stephen Petrus, M.A. Graduate Program in Spanish and Portuguese The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Ileana Rodríguez, Advisor Laura Podalsky, Co-Advisor Guisela Latorre Copyright by John Stephen Petrus 2015 Abstract In this dissertation I study transgressive gender expression and performance in contemporary Nicaragua (1979-present) in order learn about how distinctive strategies of gender expression relate to the coloniality of power and knowledge and transnational political ideologies. I show how Nicaraguan performers contend with, mediate, critique, and/or reinforce expectations of gender performance promoted by local and global centers of power. The goal of this project is to provide a better understanding of how coloniality has continued to function with respect to gender performance in very recent years and also to highlight the brave, complex, creative, and astute cultural interventions that are being created by Nicaraguan artists and performers that grapple with oppressive gender systems. I carry out my analysis by reading and engaging intellectually with audio-visual cultural texts from a variety of media including performance art, television programs, short documentaries, low-budget videos, film, and photography produced in the last two decades. Specifically, I analyze the gender performances in the television show International News Network in chapter 1, in recent Nicaraguan film and video productions in chapter 2, in Elyla Sinvergüenza’s performance art in chapter 3, and in annual diversidad sexual events LGBTI Pride and Operación Queer in chapter 4.
