Bob the Drag Queen And Purse First Studios Announcements

Fall is officially here, and Bob the Drag Queen is ready to serve all season long! Bob kicked off the month at the Fast Company Innovation Festival, where he shared his entrepreneurial wisdom with some of the world’s greatest business strategists and creators. Then, he stepped back into the reality TV world as a guest judge for People’s Next Red Carpet Reporter, where he put contestants’ high-heel relay skills to the test. Speaking of red carpets, Bob and Monét X Change stunned at the MTV Video Music Awards, where they caught up with Entertainment Tonight for an exclusive interview. The duo’s polka-dot and sheer ensembles were also featured in TMZ, The Hollywood Reporter, Today, and many more outlets. Season 2 of Celebrity Weakest Link welcomed Bob as a “Reality Villain” and highlighted his intense showdown with the other contestants, which was every bit as chaotic as expected. No topics were off the table during this month’s episodes of Only Child with Tove Lo, Scott Evans, Steph Tolev, and more. With Now Clap! continuing its run across North America, Bob’s busy fall is just getting started!

"Sibling Rivalry", his highly-rated podcast with Monét X Change, has also won a Queerty Award as well as a GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Podcast.

Over the past few years, Bob has not had much down time between interviewing with Gayle King, Sherri Shepherd, Ke$ha, and NPR’s Ari Shapiro, attempting murder on third season of Peacock’s “The Traitors”, being the Master of Ceremonies for Madonna’s international Celebration Tour, completing his own world comedy tour, writing a New York Times best-selling book, Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert and releasing his newest comedy special "This is Wild" on exclusively streaming on Hulu.
