After Miss Vida Boheme and Miss Noxeema Jackson win a major New York drag contest and a trip to Hollywood, they are persuaded to take the inexperienced 'drag princess' Chi Chi Rodriguez with them. They hire a beat-up old Cadillac and set off for L.A., but their car breaks down in a small town in the middle of nowhere. With just their wits and an endless supply of garish costumes, they transform the town and everyone who lives there--at least until homophobic cop Sheriff Dollard catches up with them...
Noxie, you remember John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt?
Of course, his name is my name too.
Do people always shout? Oh, I hate that.
Oh, my God, I'm like a compass near north.
Attitude is everything.
