Bianca Del Rio, otherwise known as Roy Haylock, is a dimple-cheeked, larger-than-life drag queen and outrageous comic who isn’t afraid to shock and offend. When it comes to insult comics, Bianca is in a class by herself. Fierce, funny, and fabulous, she has sandblasted her name in the annals of pop culture on RuPaul’s Drag Race. Thanks to her snarky frankness, impeccable timing, and politically incorrect humor, she became the show’s breakout star, winning its sixth season. Dubbed the “Joan Rivers of the Drag World” (The New York Times), there isn’t anything Bianca is afraid to say. A self-professed “clown in a gown”, Bianca is quick to point out that she is the biggest joke of all.  

Aaron Jay Young’s Queen is the culmination of over four years of work, showcasing the diversity and inclusivity at the heart of drag culture. With over 125 striking portraits, the book features some of the drag community’s most iconic and creative performers, including Shangela, Bob the Drag Queen, Trixie Mattel, Gigi Goode, Sasha Velour, and more than 100 other queens.
