Sharon Needles in Vancouver tonight

Sharon Needles is judging the finale of Vancouver’s Next Drag Superstar tonight, and she’ll also be performing music off her debut album, PG-13, after the show. Doors open at 9pm, the contest kicks off at 10. The girls were given three challenges this week: make an outfit from unknown items wrapped in a box, team up and duet, and perform an assigned song. The winner gets a trip for two to New York City to party with the cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race.

I’ll be interviewing Sharon Needles backstage, but to tide you over, here’s me talking with the witch last time she was in town:
