Several drag stars and celebrities will perform on a live and pre-taped appearance Sunday on the “Drag Isn’t Dangerous” Telethon.
“The recent demonization of drag culture has been greatly upsetting and completely shocking to me. I have had the pleasure of getting to know many drag performers, including one of my idols, the incomparable Trixie Mattel, over the past several years,” actor Jesse Eisenberg said.
Producer Entertainment Group joined up with several organizations, including Black Queer Town Hall, Concord, DeleteMe, Five Senses Reeling/Obsessed GLAAD, GLSEN, Headcount.org, Loyal Studios, OutTV, Q.Digital, OUTtv, Trixie Cosmetics, SERV Vodka and UTA, to create the event.
