Drag pageant tips/help.

Spiritually conflicted. Not of this world. Veteran
Yes, this might be a random thing task, but that is why it is in "General Banter".
I'm running in a drag pageant in a couple of months and I need some help for a few things.
1.) The presentation category is "Hollywood glam"; where can I find a good dress for around $50? The same can go for the evening wear.
2.) I thought about doing a 70's red carpet look. Which decade do you think will be the most overdone?
3.) I have REALLY thick eyebrows and don't really want to wax them unless I absolutely have to. I've tried the gluestick trick, but it doesn't work for me. Is there another way of doing it?
4.) What's something to do for talent? I've thought about doing an all Adele mix; starting with "Chasing Pavements" going into "Set fire to the Rain" and ending with "Someone like you". Or I've thought about starting with Christina Perri's "1000 Years" then going into the last two Adele songs.
Or. I thought of doing a "Hindi Sad Diamonds" and "Sparkling Diamonds" mix from Moulin Rouge.
Any thoughts?

For the eyebrows, if you don't want to shave then what about a wig with bangs that would cover the brows?
P.S. Loved your Gay and Ugly video. Reminded me of myself in every way...
Fail
Skin colored makeup over the eyebrows, then draw in thinner ones above those for a glam look. It'll look stupid in the mirror, but from the stage, people won't notice.
A guy in drag can dance and lipsynch to just about any woman's voice and get applause. Just vamp it up to the max.
Ah, the lessons a person learns from an adventurous youth. Actually, in this case it came from living in England for a few years, where the drag show is an ancient and honorable tradition.
I'm completely offended by that statement...I look so much better than Dustin Hoffman in drag.
And you betcha we wanna see some great pictures!
