Are there any Drag Queens or Drag Kings on Basil?

I know Basil has quite a few Transgendered, Transexual, and cross dressing people, but are there any Drag Q/K?

PS: There is a big difference between a transgender, a transexual, cross crosser, and Drag Q/K.

They have their own characters of course, but if they're doing a comedy act or lip syncing it would make more sense to dress up as a popular celebrity, instead of your own character who not many people know of.

[quote=NotZach]A Drag Queen is a man that impersonates a female (usually a celebrity, or they make their own characters) and over exaggerate stereotypes of the celebrity they're impersonating, while wearing clothes / makeup that exaggerate the female form usually for comedic purposes. A Drag king is a female impersonating a male character for similar reasons.

I guess it's kind of like how Sacha Baron Cohen created Borat and Brüno.

@MaikuX3: Not always. It depends on the act he or she is doing. If it involves crude or sexual themes / language, then naturally they'd take it to an 18+ crowd.[/quote]
