    We all know that Lizzo is here for LGBTQ+ people. In recent months, she's brought drag artists to the stage while drag is being attacked by Republican-led legislatures across the country. During a Nashville show back in April, Lizzo brought featured a ton of drag performers in her show during a time when the state's anti-drag bill was still being legally challenged. The legislation was eventually found to be unconstitutional. Last month, Lizzo also brought some drag artists onstage to celebrate Pride.

    Here are the drag queens and kings you should know that were featured in Lizzo's shows.
