Sara Haines: All are welcome at a drag show
“The View” Co-Host Sara Haines Celebrates the Inclusivity of Drag Shows
During a recent episode of “The View,” co-host Sara Haines engaged in a lively conversation with drag queen RuPaul Charles about the controversy surrounding drag performances in certain states. Haines passionately expressed her belief that “everyone belongs at a drag show,” emphasizing the importance of inclusivity and community.
Haines brought up the legislation in states like Tennessee that prohibits adult cabaret male or female impersonators from performing explicit acts in public. However, she pointed out that these performances can still take place in age-restricted venues, suggesting that the bans are not truly about protecting children.
Expressing her admiration for the drag community, Haines stated, “This is all happening while simultaneously we’re watching some places in this country ban drag shows. Now I want to know your thoughts because to me one of the things that appeals about a drag show and often the community is this is a community that took time to find clarity.”

Haines continued, “To see themselves, to be authentic when it wasn’t one of the actors on the stage. They had to pave their own way. So, I have always found that everyone belongs at a drag show.”
Turning the question to RuPaul, Haines asked for his thoughts. RuPaul responded with his iconic statement, “You’re born naked and the rest is drag.”
RuPaul, the host of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” chimed in, “Everybody is playing a role, everyone one. You know it. When you get out of the shower you put on your in drag, right?”
RuPaul further explained, “So here’s the thing, art doesn’t have to explain itself. Drag is art. Drag pokes fun at that stage play. It’s there to remind you not to take yourself too seriously…And the people who want to go up against all that are afraid of our light…That is the anecdote to all of this negativity.”
