I am BEAUTIFUL and I KNOW I’m Beautiful!!!
The Transgender Flag was first created in 1999 by Monica Helms, a transgender woman. Light blue and pink are featured because they’re the traditional colors associated with baby boys and girls, respectively. The white stands for those who are intersex, transitioning or those who don’t feel identified with any gender. Tonight we want to see Male Figures in Light Blue, Female Figures in Light Pink, and GNC Figures in White. No matter what your subcategory, we should see the energy of Pioneer Crystal LaBeija’s iconic phrase, as you sell us your show stopping face as make us KNOW you’re Beautiful.
Male Figure, Female Figure, GNC (3 Trophies) $500

Winner commentates Virgin Categories
Call and response is derived from the historical African roots that served as the foundation for African American cultural traditions. The call and response format became a diasporic tradition, and it was part of Africans and African Americans creating a new, unique tradition in the United States. In ALL BLACK, bring us a chant that utilizes call and response for your 10s, but make sure your chant still gets the girls up.
Virgin/New Categories
(no oty points will be given for virgin categories)
Virgin (never walked a ball in the kiki scene) - As a new birth, you are a beacon of light in a world of darkness. White light is a combination of all colors in the color spectrum. It has all the colors of the rainbow. Combining primary colors of light like red, blue, and green creates secondary colors: yellow, cyan, and magenta. All other colors can be broken down into different combinations of the three primary colors. Tonight, Bring it, head-to-toe, in an all white effect that shows us you understand that you are the future of your respective category.
New (walked kiki balls for < 1 year) - A rainbow is often a sign of hope, the beauty after the storm. But, for the queer community it carries a symbolic meaning–representing inclusivity and diversity, an all-embracing image of love and friendship. Tonight, Bring it as the queer symbol of hope, the rainbow flag, and your effect must include all colors of the rainbow, R-O-Y-G-B-I-V.
