Featured Queen: Arabia Scarabee
Arabia Scarabee is the drag persona of Cian Coakley, a 15 year old queen from Tidworth, UK. Cian started doing drag in summer of 2014, after taking inspiration from Sharon Needles. Read our Q&A with Arabia below.
How does drag make you feel?
Drag makes me feel unique and I just feel like a totally new person each time
Who are you inspirations for your drag persona?
Oh definitely Miss fame and Violet just the mix of fetish and high fashion is every thing to me and is who I'm basing Arabia on
Who are you all time favourite Queens?
Miss Fame, Violet Chachki and Pearl
Do you have a specific look you like to go for, or does your look vastly vary?
Well really it truly depends on how I'm thinking sometimes I like to have a very out of the box look but then I also like to have "bed room eyes"
What would be your ultimate ambition you would like to achieve through drag?
I really want to be on runways and being a high fashion drag model
If you could only have 3 makeup products to do your complete drag makeup look for the rest of
your life, what would they be?
- Highlighter (the stronger the better) eyeliner and some contour powder
What is your one favourite piece of fashion or accessory from your wardrobe? (Include a
picture, if you like)
Oh definitely my pleather dress that I wear way to much
Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?
Dead.
What's your opinion on the recent increase in popularity of drag, due to things such as RuPaul's Drag Race?
I'm on the fence about it like yes it's boosting the culture of drag but once people watch drag race they think they know everything about drag and its history when they truly don't
Anything else we should know about your drag persona?
- She's crazy
- She's a myth
- Into fetish/bondage fashions
- Wanna be living doll
- She will be something big someday
