Jinkx and BenDeLaCreme Snag Queerty Awards

February 25, 2021• byMichael Strangeways

Two former Seattleites grabbed Queerty Awards last night honoring the best in LGBTQ art, entertainment and media. Our own Jinkx Monsoon won in the “Drag Royalty” category beating out other RuPaul’s Drag Race favorites like Raven and Shea Couleé but also another Seattle diva, Dina Martina.

Jinkx also won for the oddly named category “Lockdown LOL” which included a grab bag of digital performances. She shared the award with BenDeLaCreme for their popular 2020 show “Jinkx and DeLa Holiday Special” which aired on Hulu. The two drag divas beat out a wide variety of talented performers including Saturday Night Live’s Kate McKinnon and Bowen Yang and comedians Wanda Sykes and Fortune Feimster.

Congrats to Jinkx and DeLa and check out all the winners HERE.

But, not necessarily in that order.
