On June 6, Texas state representative Bryan Slaton announced new legislation that would ban minors from attending drag shows. He said it was a necessary measure to "protect children from 'perverted adults,'" according to NBC News.
The outlet reported that other lawmakers opposed the prospective bill. RuPaul, celebrity and TV host of "RuPaul's Drag Race," also denounced the bill while on "The Late Late Show."
"I met myself through drag," Kay Sedia said as she addressed the full restaurant to talk about the history of drag and tell diners about Taco Bell's partnership with the It Gets Better Project. "So I always tell people it does get better. I'm a true testament to that."
She talked about the partnership, which naturally reminded us all that we were at a corporate event, but she was able to do it with her own comedic flair that makes a drag show truly entertaining and captivating.
After it wrapped, decorations started to come down, and loose cash was picked up off the floor. I left feeling joyful, emotional, and generally impressed with what Taco Bell's team pulled off. I'd love to see it be more of a year-round offering.
