Nicholas Galitzine reveals drag name and favourite Drag Race queen
Nicholas Galitzine has discussed his love and “respect” for the art-form of drag. In the latest episode of the Just for Variety with Mark Malkin podcast, the actor reminisced on when he “became a drag queen” on the set of Mary & George and revealed his favourite contestant from RuPaul’s Drag Race.
Towards the end of their conversation (around the 52 minute mark!), the host asked Galitzine if he’s a fan of the Emmy Award-winning series after he reshared a post from judge Michelle Visage.
In the post, Visage shared her love for the LGBTQIA+ sex teen comedy Bottoms, in which Galitzine received acclaim for his role as a himbo jock. “It’s so funny, I never was [a fan of Drag Race] and my sister is a huge, huge fan,” he responded. “I sat down [to watch it] and was entirely engrossed by it.
These people are so talented, oh my god.” Galitzine praised the diverse range of skills that are required of a drag queen, from ‘dancing, performing, humour, makeup and costumes’: “It’s really wonderful, and my sister is getting into the UK season as well. “I just texted her a screenshot of [Michelle Visage’s post] and she’s freaking out.
