Veronica Mills became Wellington's Miss Fag-Hag 2008 in January, then Miss Sophie took away a similar honour in Christchurch last weekend - and now it's Hamilton's Shine nightclub's turn to crown the Waikato's best straight female friend to gay guys. "We know it's not the most elegant title in the land but who cares," says drag MC Lousia Vuitton of the Miss Fag-Hag Waikato contest. "It's a great excuse for a pageant and party and everyone else is doing it so why shouldn't Hamilton?" Showtime is 12:30am on Saturday 8 March, and the winner will receive ahamper of professional haircare products and a $150 Shine nightclub bar tab. The Hamilton LGBT nightclub is popular with woman - lesbian and straight alike - in the early evening, so management have set aside 7pm until 10pm on the first Saturday of each month as Women's Happy Hours, with drink specials, finger food, entertainment and theme nights. To nominate a Miss Fag-Hag Waikato contestant, pick up an entry form from the bar at Shine nightclub or email info@shinenightclub.co.nz (mention you read about it on GayNZ.com). Entries close Sunday 2 March.
