For a special Pride Month installment of our “Tell Us Something Good” celebrity recommendation series, we talked with iconic local drag queen Cookie Couture, who will be hosting the virtual Tush Pride event next Thursday, June 24. She told us about her favorite fish and chips spot in town, the best HBO shows to binge, and her vision for the future of drag in Seattle. Get to know her more below, then go get tickets for Tush!
This interview was conducted over email and has been edited for clarity and concision.
How would you introduce yourself to our readers? Can you tell us a little about Tush Pride and any other projects or events you might have in the works?
If you’d asked me that question in 2019, I’d say that I’m a drag queen and events producer, but now I’d introduce myself as a more multifaceted Seattle drag creative. I’ll book the show, design the flyer, host it, create my audio tracks, perform in it, and DJ the after-show accompanied by party visuals created by me. I’m a one-woman drag party good time experience.
