Who are some famous drag queens?
Some famous drag queens in the heterosexual world are like Milton Berle, although he did a lot of comedy other than doing drag. His drag characters were beloved by 1950's America, which is kind of funny. Flip Wilson was an African American comic and entertainer. His drag character, Geraldine, was very popular in television. Of course Eddie Murphy has done all these movies where he dresses as various female characters. If you're talking about people who exclusively do drag as their entertainment though, there are people like Rue Paul who came out in the 80's and early 90's, and was very popular on MTV. Let's see who else, there are people like Divine, who was a superstar and muse to director John Waters. There are people who never wanted to change their physical sex, and have surgery and hormones, but they had a great female character that they loved putting out there that was very popular.
