Are you destined to be discovered like Susan Boyle or robbed of your title like Adam Lambert? (We can hear the arguments over that one already!) Whether you croon like Jennifer Hudson or croak like William Hung, step up to the mic and take your best shot at being named the QFest Queer Idol! This is no regular karaoke – Pick your favorite from queer composers like Cole Porter and Stephen Sondheim, or from queer icons like Judy Garland, Peggy Lee, Madonna, Cher, or queer songs like “The Man I Love” and “These Boots Are Made for Walking” or from queer sensibility shows like “Grease” and “Hairspray”. Channel your favorite queer idol and belt out that tune! And just like your favorite primetime competition, a panel of expert judges will assess your skills and the audience will help determine who takes the title, so make sure your rooting section is the biggest! Prizes and Surprises will be supplied by the hotties from homopop.com, home of everything sticky and sweet.
Celebrity judges will include H.P. Mendoza Rising Star Awardee and Fruit Fly Director and others.
