Results from the first annual Stumped Awards

Creepy Stumped award statues. Though I suppose the faceless Oscar is pretty creepy too.

This past Friday saw the first in what I hope is a long line of Razzie style awards for the best/worst in various drag and queer performance categories (and yes, I think Facebook posts do count as performance. Think about it). In a very unscientific survey that was released to the wilds of queer PDX internetlandia that encourage “ballot stuffing” and various shenanigans and chicanery, you the viewer chose the winners. So in case you missed the red carpet antics and just want the rundown here are the winners.

Genderf**king Takeover & Peep Show Present: The STUMPED Awards

Portland is clearly tired of playing second fiddle to that other west coast city known for award shows and culture. So we’re having more of our own red carpets and cheeky Portland-wood glamour. It is this vein, I’m sure, that some of the folks from Genderf***ing Takeover and Peep Show have put together our own award show to highlight the best and worst drag of 2011 in Stumptown, the 2011 Stumped Awards.

Unlike the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences you actually get to weigh in on the nominees. Voting is already underway at the Stumped Awards survey page and will go until December 8th. I’m sure you’ll see their categories are just a bit more irreverent then the traditional awards show such as “Hottest Mess” and “Most Epic Facebook.” Cuz that’s just how we do it here.
