Watch Drag Queen Vivacious' Makeup Transformation | About Face | ELLE

The legendary Vivacious began her journey into the world of drag in 1992. Back then, it wasn't about trying to look like a woman; it was about being avant garde and larger than life — something that Vivacious did on the club scene, and as a contestant on Ru Paul's Drag Race. In this episode of "About Face," she talks about her origins, how drag doubles as armor, and why she won't let anyone call her anything but Vivacious.
