Southern town ‘outraged’ and ‘appalled’ over drag dance troupe in Christmas parade

As far as I’m concerned it isn’t the holiday season until you see men dressed as slutty Mrs Clauses dancing down the street.

Evidently, the hicks . . . sorry, I mean residents, of Semmes, Alabama, don’t agree.

The Prancing Elites were booked to dance in the Semmes Christmas parade. Troupe mother Kentrell Collins reportedly told parade organizers he and his dancers were female impersonators, and the organizers were excited to have them on board.

Obviously, they weren’t thinking of the miniature hicks . . . sorry, I mean children.

*Start southern idiom/idiocy*

“I was outraged and appalled,” Claudia Davis told Fox 10. “I never expect anything like this at the Semmes Christmas parade. If they were gonna put this kind of activity in the parade, they should have notified the people of Semmes so that we had a choice whether we wanted our children to attend and see something like that.”

*End southern idiom/idiocy*

Fox 10 also interviewed the Prancing Elites, who, unfortunately, apologized “if they offended anyone.”

Oh, girls, never be sorry for putting the ho in the holidays — it’s the only thing that gets us through it.
