TLC SETS APRIL SERIES PREMIERE FOR "DRAGNIFICENT!" AS DRAG QUEENS EXTRAORDINAIRE RESCUE PEOPLE DESPERATE FOR LIFE-CHANGING MAKEOVERS

-The Series Stars Beloved Drag Queens Alexis Michelle, BeBe Zahara Benet, Jujubee and Thorgy Thor-

LOS ANGELES - Following its buzzed-about 2019 special, today TLC proudly announces the series premiere of DRAGNIFICENT!, featuring some of America's most beloved drag queens as they flip the switch and sprinkle their glitz on people who desperately wish for a mega- makeover as part of an upcoming life milestone. The series will take viewers on a loud, outrageous and heartwarming ride as the queens help each person reveal the best version of themselves - inside and out. DRAGNIFICENT! will premiere in April, 2020.

"The response to our special with Alexis, BeBe, Jujubee and Thorgy last year was an enthusiastic 'heck yeah,' and we are so proud to bring them all back for a full season run in DRAGNIFICENT!," said Howard Lee, President and GM, TLC. "TLC viewers love our tears-of-joy stories of transformation, self-discovery and self-love. We can't think of a better treat for viewers than following four of America's favorite drag queens as they help someone feel as fabulous and confident as they deserve to be."

At the heart of DRAGNIFICENT! are makeovers that tug on the heartstrings, with a team of experts who tackle their challenges by drawing on their individual expertise and overall fabulousness: Alexis Michelle is a makeup artist, specializing in weddings and special events; BeBe is an experienced event planner who can transform any room into a fantasy space; Jujubee, a fashion expert known for her dynamic and iconic looks, draws on her deep knowledge in drag couture and women's fashion; and Thorgy Thor is a classically trained musician who knows how to get the party started.

In each episode, the cast will help someone reimagine their appearance for a special day and reveal themselves as they have only dreamed, while taking viewers on a touching journey of their life and struggles to this point. Whether it be a bride who wants to feel beautiful walking down the aisle, an alumna who wants to strut her stuff at an upcoming high school reunion, or a woman coming to terms with her new body after losing a massive amount of weight, there is nothing our queens can't tackle.

No matter how big the event or transformation, our fairy godmothers are just the team needed to give these people the confidence, courage and grace they need to be their best at the biggest moments of their lives.
