Ex-Rep. George Santos revives drag queen persona Kitara, says it's for charity

NEW YORK — (S)he’s ba-a-a-ck — and it’s all for a good cause!
Ex-Rep. George Santos on Monday is reviving his long-hidden drag queen persona for what he claims is a charity fundraising effort after the collapse of his political career.
The disgraced former lawmaker tweeted that he will record personalized short videos using the cross-dressing alter ego that he abandoned nearly two decades ago, for anyone who wants to pay.
“Y’all were so obsessed with me being a drag queen so now i’m going to use that to make some money for charity,” Santos told the News.
“It’s me trolling you,” Santos added.
The short videos on the Cameo platform cost a hefty $350 a pop.
Addressing his online audience as “you messy b—-es,” Santos asserted that 10% of the proceeds would go to a 9/11 victims group and another 10% to a pro-Israel Christian group.
All the rest of the profits will go to wardrobe, hair and makeup expenses, at least according to Santos.
“George Santos will make nothing,” he said. “I’m doing it for charity.”
Santos insisted he was “never a drag queen” and that nosy journalists twisted a photo of him dressed in women’s clothes that was taken 18 years ago in Brazil.
