Regina's Queen City Pride 2018 was this last week and the legendary
Lady Bunny was the star performer at Pride after Dark on Saturday, doing her drag comedy and DJing for the party.
Lady Bunny began drag career with her close friend Ru Paul in Atlanta and in the 1980's she moved to NYC and became one of the outrageously flamboyant
Club Kids. She organized Wigstock, a drag queen festival, and appeared in many movies including
To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar. and guest appeared in the television series
Sex and the City.
Regina's Pride Parade was last Saturday and was largest in the city's 3 decade Pride Parade history.

But in an unfortunate demonstration of exclusion by a few in the LGBTQ community, Jon Ryan, a vocal supporter of LGBTQ rights, withdrew his presence from the parade because some were upset that he, a straight man, was to lead the Pride Parade.
