Here's the full recap of this year's LadyLand Festival, featuring Christina Aguilera, Caroline Polachek and others.
Knowing her audience, Aguilera had a series of surprises in store -- early on in the performance, the"Ain't No Other Man" singer brought out stars Aquaria, Milk, Jaida Essence Hall and Dahlia Sin for a lip-sync medley to a string of singles.
"Getting to perform in front of all of you is a dream come true," Polachek said."Here's to resilience." For drag fans in the audience, Jaida Essence Hall and Aquaria delivered their own incredible shows. Offering her services as an emcee of sorts for the evening, Hall kept the crowd engaged and attentive, right up until her very own lip sync number, where she showed off her dance skills with kicks, splits, dips, costume changes, a wig reveal and just abut every other trick you would hope to see in a top-tier lip sync number.
The night also saw a star-turn performance from Nina Sky, the fabulous DJ duo behind 2004's"Move Ya Body," with NYC hip-hop duo The Dragon Sisters joining them onstage for a blissed-out dance party. Up-and-coming rapper La Goony Chonga brought fans to their feet with her booty-shaking set early on in the evening, delivering high-energy versions of songs like"Pa Mi,""Que Te Gusta" and"Duro 2005.
Whether it was the stunning musical performances, heart-pounding DJ sets, gag-worthy drag numbers or just the overall sense of reuniting a community that had been apart for so long, LadyLand Festival delivered a rollicking, euphoric evening on Saturday. As a pregnant Ladyfag put it shortly before Aguilera's set,"The best way to heal is through collective joy."
