I'm so happy for all the success Jinkx is having. She's a truly gifted performer, and she'll do GREAT as Mama M! I only wish I could get to NYC to see it!
My daughter and I are going to see this on Saturday (Jan 21st) and I'm SO FRICKIN EXCITED!! I've loved and rooted for Jinkx since her season of RuPaul's Drag Race. I can't wait to see and hear her embody Matron Mama Morton on Broadway! You're a star, baby!
Wait - she's playing MATRON MAMA MORTON?!? Holy $#!t! I don't think a queen's ever gotten higher in the Chicago cast list than Mary Sunshine! Well, there IS Richard Gere in the film, of course, but I digress....This really is a stunning development.
I'd LOVE to see Jinkx as Mama Morton! My partner and I were privileged to see her twice in the space of a month in Lancaster UK & it was a fabulous show! We both met her and Major Scales which was a huge treat, AND had our pictures taken with them both, cheek kisses allowed too! Come back soon Jinkx! XXXXX
In very early theater, men played all the roles. The humor in Shakespeare In Love is based on this. Jinkx is just being historically/hertorically correct. Would love to see her.
I hate the time their in Chicago! Ugh Phantom is leaving Broadway and I spent all my "extra" money getting a ticket (with a discount lol). I hope and honestly expect they will be FANTASTIC in Chicago! That voice is a bombshell ♥️♥️
yes she originated a role in a broadway play based on the go-gos that now gets performed in like high schools and stuff, she said it was a really queer play in its contents
Oh yes of course, but this is the first time a drag artist has played the role of Mama Morton in Chicago on Broadway in the 26 years of this current production, so that's where the "herstory" comes in :)
I've seen Chicago the musical 3 times, and if I am being completely honest; it's such a horrible musical on stage. There's no set, there aren't great costumes, minimal props, and having the orchestra on the stage is so damn distracting. I really wish it was "umphed up" more. But, break a leg Jinkx. You'll be great.
Jinkx’s laugh plays on a loop in my head 😂 she’s perfect for this role!
Yes, we can't wait to see Jinkx in action!

So excited for the Queen of Queens! Break a leg Jinx your amazing!
She's going to crush this role! 😍
She is perfection!!! So talented! She deserves every single good thing that comes her way.
Can't wait to see my favorite Queen in my all time favorite Broadway show! Love you Jinkx!!!
I’m so happy for our little jinxy poo. She’s really the sweetest most wonderful person. Oh how I wish I could be her friend 😆

Jinkx is very genuine and likable...and quite knowledgeable.

Comments like this make me smile. The children need more literature like yours. 💗
So happy for you Jinkx! You’re a great casting choice for this role!
Jinx was meant for the stage on broadway..all we need now is a new film musical of La Cage with jinx in it
I'd LOVE to see Jinkx as Mama Morton! My partner and I were privileged to see her twice in the space of a month in Lancaster UK & it was a fabulous show! We both met her and Major Scales which was a huge treat, AND had our pictures taken with them both, cheek kisses allowed too! Come back soon Jinkx! XXXXX
How fabulous, what wonderful memories & you have the photos to treasure too! :)
There is no place like Chicago!my fave
Looking gorgeous Jinx your makeup up is awesome.
God I love her so much! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this interview🙏

I'm so happy for jinkx,I know that it's always been her dream to make it on broadway congrats jerick we love you
So sweet, lovely and patient.
I love this! Thank you Jinkx for hammering against the idea that you have to identify a certain way to play a certain character. Powerful!
I’ve always wanted to play Mama Rose but I think Jinkx would be perfect to play Mama Rose!
Jinkx, you’re incredible. I resonated so much with what you said.
this color on jinx is stunning
we're coming to opening night and i can't wait!
Amazing!! Enjoy & let us know how it was :)
so well deserved!
I hate the time their in Chicago! Ugh Phantom is leaving Broadway and I spent all my "extra" money getting a ticket (with a discount lol). I hope and honestly expect they will be FANTASTIC in Chicago! That voice is a bombshell ♥️♥️
I’d be willing to bet that most folks watching the show wouldn’t know for sure that Jinkx is a drag Queen unless they were told before hand.
She will get a Tony!😍😍😍
Just realized that it's tomorrow! Break a leg!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great Interview!
Thanks for watching! So glad you enjoyed it.
I have my tickets!
Amazing! Hope you have a blast.
I can’t wait to see how **** mother is in this interview💚
There’s literally a Drag character in the show already….
Peppermint was on Broadway?
yes she originated a role in a broadway play based on the go-gos that now gets performed in like high schools and stuff, she said it was a really queer play in its contents
I thought she was nominated for a Tony.
Tbh she could of been Roxy too
The hair color…. And I’m sure Jinx could do the voice, but Lois from Family guy 😮
ginger spice's mom is here yall
Stay away from the edibles Jinkx..😅
"Drag Herstory" except for the fact that the big twist at the end of Chicago is that Mary Sunshine is actually a man. lol

He’s lost some weight. It’s very becoming.
