The Devil's Music 44: Jackie Beat

The legendary Jackie Beat is a world famous drag queen, actor, singer, writer and comedic genius. Hilarious, sardonic and larger than life, she’s appeared in several films and television series, acting and as herself as well as accruing writing credits on comedy specials. You may remember her from the series “Fashion Police”. Pre-pandemic, she toured worldwide, and is currently picking up where she left off.

In this episode, Jackie and hostess Pleasant Gehman dish about everything from stage makeup tips to pronoun usage, the 1980’s punk rock and drag crossover world, the Tranimal phenomenon, John Waters, Divine and RuPaul. Like almost every touring performer, Jackie’s had paranormal experiences in theaters, and they discuss that. However, unlike Jackie, not many people can recount the time they spent a harrowing night in an extremely haunted hotel with Dita Von Tease.
