Those attending the White House ceremony for Tuesday’s signing of legislation codifying same-sex marriage into federal law included two prominent drag queens.
Marti G. Cummings, a New York City drag queen and political activist, and Brita Filter, who was featured on season 12 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” were among those in the audience for President Biden’s signing of the Respect for Marriage Act on the South Lawn.
Both performers shared photos afterward on social media that showed Brita Filter decked out in drag and Marti G. Cummings, who identifies as a “nonbinary drag artist,” wearing men’s clothes at the ceremony.
