Sassify Zine - May 2020
We are more than our trauma. I think it would also be rad for people to see the beauty and the complexity of who we are as a community…’’
Fox Fisher
The tyrants of drag the Boulet Brothers are redefining everything you know about queer and drag culture. In my vision of a future queer utopia the Boulet Brothers would rule supreme. In their search for the next drag super monster, expect bewildering sights, filth, horror and glamour.

DEFINE SASSINESS...
Sassiness is a tongue pop at the end of a sentence, or a neck crane, or a swish of your
hip as you stomp off. It’s the ‘fuck’ in ‘‘fuck you.’’
DO YOUR DRAG PERSONAS GIVE BETTER SASS THAN YOUR OUT-OF-DRAG
COUNTERPARTS?
What do you think?
IS THE CONCEPT OF SASS PERTINENT TO SUCCESS?
Well, it’s always important to believe inyourself and exude confidence
DO YOU HAVE A HIDDEN TEMPTATION?
No. When we want things, we just go get them.
HAVE YOU EVER GIVEN INTO A TEMPTATION?
Every time we have wanted something and indulged in it, it’s a total pleasure. We believe
that as long as you’re not hurting yourself or anyone else, you should indulge in whatever
you love until your heart is content.
WHAT GUILTY PLEASURE CAN YOU NOT LIVE WITHOUT?
An assistant. A right-hand man. A manservant. A pretty one.
WHAT SORT OF FILTH, GLAMOUR AND HORROR CAN WE EXPECT FROM YOU IN THE
FUTURE?
At the time of writing the Boulet Brothers were fresh off Boulet Brothers ‘DRAGULA: Search for the World’s First Drag Super monster’ season one, which you can watch on Heyqween.tv. We are taking the girls from season one on a performance tour, and then we have some massive news for season two, but you will have to wait and read about that later!
With Season two just concluding we will have to wait patiently for our season three fix.
