Icon, with Manila Luzon ticket giveaway!

Manila Luzon was set to perform at the very first Icon at Post Modern back in October, but after the death of her lover, and fellow RuPaul’s Drag Race star, Sahara Davenport, she was forced to cancel. Luckily, things have come full circle, and for the last Icon, on Friday, Nov 23, Manila is the featured guest.

Tickets are $15, but if you’d like to get on the guest list, email blitzandshitz@xtra.ca the answer to this question:

When Manila cancelled, which two Drag Race stars came to perform at Icon in her place?

I’ll be emailing the winner tomorrow afternoon. Good luck, and enjoy the party!
