Monday 30th September 2019, UK: Attitude magazine – the world’s largest LGBTQ+ media brand – in partnership with Jaguar has launched an online mini-series in which four of the world’s most fabulous drag queens race to raise funds for LGBTQ+ charities.
Hosted by Channel 4’s Drag SOS star Cheddar Gorgeous, Jag Race features Courtney Act and Peppermint, stars of the Emmy Award-winning TV show RuPaul’s Drag Race, alongside The Vivienne (recently announced as a contestant on BBC Three’s hotly-anticipated UK version of the same show) and the ‘North-East’s Premier Show Girl’ Miss Tickle.
Behind the wheel of Jaguar’s all-electric I-PACE, each queen will drag race over a standing quarter mile to snatch the top prize of £10,000 for their chosen charity. The runner-up will bag £6,000 for their charity, with the remaining queens taking £2,000 each.
The charities in play via the Attitude Magazine Foundation are the Albert Kennedy Trust (UK), Stonewall Community Foundation (New York), Sahir House (Liverpool) and Angel Trust (North-East).
Fans can also support the queens’ chosen charities by donating at www.gofundme.com/AttitudeJagRace*
The mini-series celebrates the longstanding relationship between Attitude and Jaguar in the lead-up to the eighth annual Virgin Atlantic Attitude Awards 2019, which Jaguar has co-sponsored for the last four years. The Awards will be hosted at Camden's iconic Roundhouse on 9th October by American TV personality and Ru Paul’s Drag Race judge, Ross Mathews.
