Last night at Underground was the Miss Swinging Richards Pageant. It was hosted at Charlie Brown's Cabaret. Charlie performed and served as the emcee for the competition between the six contestants.

My favorite performance of the night belonged to Sonique. She channeled Madonna as she performed one of my favorite Madonna songs, Open Your Heart.

Alexandria Martin again was her typical over-the top-comical self (my kind of drag and the best thing going in Atlanta drag) but her Muppet sketch did fall flat with the crowd. I adore Alexandria and Sonique so I am partial to both of them.

The winner was Amaya Black. She put on a show with those painful looking splits during her performance.
