THE VILLBERGS

Most of the drag world is compromised mostly of  solo queens doing their schtick, followed by whole drag house. But when it comes to drag duo's there aren't as many. I have featured the fun and lively Coyle twins, Sugar and Spice here, who are shaking up the drag scene, and they aren't even of age yet. Then there was the South American boyfriend duo The Deendjeers, and of course the most fabulous of spooks, The Boulet Brothers. But probably the most unusual, glamorous and avant garde would have to  the Villbergs. It's almost like the edginess of Jodie Harsh, the glam of Amanda Lepore and club kid Leigh Bowery all came together to result in the Villbergs.  The Swedish internationally recognized power drag couple, consist of a talkative glittery goblin, and a dead pan beautiful self centered man lady...and they welcome all to see the world through their eyes. The Villbergs are considered top tier drag artist to revival even the likes of Sasha Velour, designers, muses, and globetrotters. These couture creatures  of the alternative world exist in the midland between the fashion industry and the artsy culture scene and the club world of Europe. With backgrounds between them in architecture, graphics design, fashion design, pattern making, styling and make up, they can create some of the most creative and jaw dropping ensembles I have seen in all the years I have been doing drag and after. Their matching ensembles are just mind blowing. From the wigs to the clothing, they have designed and created everything of their own design, and the duo's visual concept has evolved into a one of a kind vision of couture and art joined. Some of their unique sense of style has resulted in collaborations with some of the worlds leading photographers, as part of their platform is a jaw dropping candy shop on Instagram, where there creations can often be seen with world famous landmarks in the background. There show's in Sweden are as legendary as them. How many queen's put on a show in an ice palace??? If I was still doing drag on a regular basis, these two would be some of my newest role models, though it might break the bank. And trust...if I get to Sweden one day you damn well know I will have to go to one of their shows. I can also get behind them unnerving the masc crowd with their pronouns and Mr Villberg calling his partner the Mrs.!!!!!! WERK IT BITCHES!

A Q and A with the boys. The Mrs cracks me up.
