“Once I got up on the stage and I saw her singing and being herself, that cheered me [on] to just be myself, let me go, and dance and have fun.”
In September, a mother wrote an essay on Huffington Post that she thought drag queens were better role models for her children than princesses.
"When it comes down to it, I respect drag queens," she wrote. "They are artists. They are able to conceptualize an idea and transform themselves -- without the help of magic, I might add. They are risk takers. They are punk. But Disney princesses? They are a man-made franchise created to sell cheaply made shit to our daughters. They are a perpetuation of the stereotype of the weak, dumb woman who obediently waits for a man to come along and make her valuable. Between the two I'll always promote the big-wigged man crooning 'I'm Every Woman.' Werq."

They started by hanging out at the playground.
Joselyn was so excited!
