Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor Orville Peck may be nervous about bringing drag queens onstage during his concerts in red states, but he refuses to let fear get in the way of fighting for LGBTQ rights. “We played Knoxville, and we did Memphis, and we played a few places in Tennessee and just the South in general. And I doubled down, and I had a drag queen come out in the middle of the show, and I would do a big speech,” Peck tells me. “To me, drag is extremely important not just because a lot of my lovely dear friends do it,” he continues. “It’s a cornerstone of not just gay culture but gay civil rights. It is literally why I have the ability to be an openly gay man in country music. Was I scared? Yes, but I did it anyway because sometimes you just have to do something no matter what.”

Thania Garcia As part of her nationwide tour across the United States, Hayley Kiyoko performed in Nashville on May 1 and was joined by drag queens in defiance of the state’s evolving legislation against drag performances. Although the law is currently blocked in federal court, Kiyoko said an “undercover cop” advised her to keep drag queens off her stage. The “Girls Like Girls” singer shared on social media that she had the idea to bring out two drag performers — Ivy St James and LiberTea — after seeing a drag show in the city. She said the decision caused “an emotional rollercoaster to say the least.” In a caption of a series of teary-eyed videos and concert footage, Kiyoko wrote she was “advised by local law enforcement that having a drag performance at my all ages show could result in legal action.” She told her followers that an “undercover cop” at her soundcheck had warned her to not bring out any drag performers and she “was shattered as you can see in the videos I recorded reacting to the situation in real time before the show started.”

Hayley Kiyoko has claimed she was threatened with legal action before her performance with drag queens at her concert in Nashville, Tennessee.The singer took to Instagram to share a video in which she explained that she was told since her shows are all ages if she were to bring out drag queens, she could face legal action. This is due to Tennessee’s new anti-drag restrictions.“They warned us to not bring any drag performers on stage,” Kiyoko shared in the caption of the video.
