Drag shows are a way to show the world that there are many ways to please yourself and others. Drag queens are the embodiment of fun and enjoyment, and they show the world how to take care of yourself and others.

The Hot Ones game show is based on a successful A-list celebrity interview series that has over 600 million total views. The game show pits two teams against each other in a competition where each team is competing for a chance to win $25,000. Players must compete by eating hot wings covered in hot sauce, with their Scoville ratings increasing from round to round. If the teams fail to eat all the hot wings, they are sent to the “hall of shame.”

The company is a Black-owned business, created by Andre Springer. He is a native New Yorker of Barbadian descent who started performing in NYC at age twenty. Springer has also created a drag alter ego, Shaquanda Coca Mulatta, and created a hot pepper sauce line around it. Andre spent years working in the restaurant industry before making Shaquanda’s Hot Pepper Sauce. He met Linda Simpson while working on Gay Jeopardy in Queens.
Shaquanda’s Hot Pepper Sauce was born of Springer’s desire to create a spicy condiment that would appeal to the drag community. The sauce contains chili peppers, onions, tomato paste, demerara sugar, and ginger juice. The sauce can be found at Otherwild in Los Angeles, and Fat Radish in Brooklyn. Shaquanda’s Hot Pepper Sauce is a staple in the drag scene and is perfect for the stage.
