This is the Queerty Interview, where we bring you conversations with the most exciting LGBTQ+ voices in entertainment, activism, and beyond. I’m Cameron Scheetz, Entertainment Editor at Queerty, and today we’re kicking off our Dragaholic Austin series with the one and only Cynthia Lee Fontaine.
Hosted by AJ Gibson and Emile Ennis Jr., this episode dives into Cynthia’s journey from community health work and activism in Puerto Rico to becoming a fan favorite on RuPaul’s Drag Race. Known for her beloved “cucu” and undeniable charisma, Cynthia opens up about her family’s legacy of activism, the power of chosen family, and how drag became her tool for empowerment and community building. It’s a conversation about resilience, identity, and the power of showing up on stage and in life.
