MADDELYNN

One of my other sought out favorites queens, has always been Maddelynn Hatter. When in New York, it's one show you need to see. She was almost right behind Sharon Needles on the scene for bringing this new form of dark and twisted drag. Now there are numerous queens on the scene. but I must say, I have never met a queen where the name couldn't be more perfect. To date, the way she forms her mannerisms and shapes that mouth, I would truly believe she is mad!!!! If there is anyone that knows how to stand out, it's this New York City drag daredevil Maddelynn Hatter. With a strong aesthetic, twisted act and an even stronger perspective, this creep queen wonder is truly one of a kind, So much so, that her unique performance style has torpedoed to headlining gigs at The Black Party in New York as well as in Provincetown, MA. I think every queen should experience a Maddelynn show. They are visually stimulating and engaging, and I have never seen a queen like her look people in the eye and  connect with her audience. She likes bright colors and a whole bunch of different kinds of music to perform to from Fiona Apple, to Marilyn Manson to Zedd! Maddelynn finds the need to be physically moved and inspired by the music, or its simply all about the look. She puts some concept around what the music makes her feel as well. If ever the Mad Hatter came to life, it came to life in this queen.

One of my favorite performances of her from Drag Carnage...still gives me chills
