Timeline
Charlie Hides (born 12 July 1964) is a British-American drag queen, impersonator, actor, and comedian.
Hides is known for his YouTube channel, and his participation in the ninth season of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Hides was born in Boston, Massachusetts on 12 July 1964.
He attended the Massachusetts College of Art and Design.
He currently lives in London and has multiple citizenship, being a citizen of the United States, United Kingdom, and Ireland.
Hides began as a successful drag act in Provincetown, Massachusetts in the 1990s.
There he would incorporate live singing as well as comedic skits into his act.
This success continued when he moved to London in the 2000s where he began performing on the London cabaret circuit in gay-venues, and legendary drag/cabaret venues, such as The Two Brewers and The Royal Vauxhall Tavern.
As his success grew, he became a sensation across the United Kingdom and would regularly tour the UK.
Hides started a YouTube channel after high-definition video uploading became available on the website.
Following the creation of his channel, he uploaded some of the videos that he used in live performances and comedy routines.
Hides is gay, and in 2004 married his partner James Hides in the town of Provincetown, Massachusetts.
Following live performances in London clubs, Hides started a YouTube channel in March 2011.
He has produced hundreds of videos satirizing popular culture, and impersonating celebrities such as Cher, Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Lana Del Rey.
Since Hides created the Charlie Hides TV YouTube channel in March 2011, he has uploaded over 200 videos.
These include series such as Madonna/Lady Gaga Nightmares and Shit ____ Says.
In 2013, Hides uploaded a sketch that starred Australian singer and actress Kylie Minogue.
He impersonated Cher during a telephone call with Minogue.
In a 2013 interview with the Herald Sun, Cher said that Hides was her "favourite Cher impersonator".
When Lady Gaga was in London, she sent flowers to Hides, alongside a note.
Hides has also stated that Liza Minnelli, Elton John and Kris Jenner have been "very kind".
In 2014, The Charlie Hides Show aired on London Live as a pilot show, incorporating elements from his live performances and YouTube channel.
Hides has occasionally drawn the attention of some of the acts that he impersonates.
In 2015, Hides starred on the TV show Big Brother's Bit on the Side, where he impersonated celebrities whilst commenting on Celebrity Big Brother contestants.
Hides also had a cameo role in the film Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie, as a drag performer.
On 2 February 2017, Logo TV announced that Hides would participate as a contestant in the ninth season of American reality competition RuPaul's Drag Race.
Aged 52 at the time of competing, Hides was the oldest contestant to participate in any Drag Race franchise.
This record would be broken in late 2023, when it was announced that 57-year-old Kitten Kaboodle would compete on the fourth season of Canada’s Drag Race.
The season premiered on 24 March 2017, on VH1.
In an interview with BBC News Newsbeat, Hides said:
"The label drag queen is not just a cookie cutter, one-size fits all type of label. There's pageant girls, there's comics, there's celebrity impersonators. There's every different type of queen under the sun. That's one of the things that Drag Race has definitely shown over the course of nine seasons. That there's so many different ways to express yourself using this art form.
You'd think it's just gay men, but it's got a huge following of women who are watching for the fashion.
They're watching for the colourful sense of humour and then they're identifying with us.
The contestants are human beings and not just seen as some dancing clowns or as freaks.
We are definitely in need of laughter, sunshine, brightness and colour.
We are the counter culture, the opposition party.
We are everything that the moral majority and small-minded bigots fear." On the fourth episode of the show, entitled "Good Morning Bitches", Hides was eliminated from the competition. He was placed in the bottom two by the judges, and therefore had to participate in a "Lip-Sync for Your Life" to Britney Spears' "I Wanna Go" against fellow contestant Trinity Taylor. Hides commented on the lip-sync, saying that the self-described "disaster" was a result of having a fractured rib, due to a cheerleading challenge several episodes prior. In the episode's challenge, Hides was critiqued for his performance in the talk show segment of the episode. The morning after his elimination, Hides uploaded a music video for his new single, "The Dame".
In 2019, Hides' began regularly performing and hosting 'Drag Queen Bingo' and saw instant success with every show selling out that he began taking it across the United Kingdom.
'Drag Queen Bingo' would become Hides' regular show, taking over from his evening cabaret shows, and in 2020 he set up the company dragqueen.bingo.
