Oh, Bob the Drag Queen — you were supposed to be a queen for the people! And considering what sort of behavior is permissible on Grindr, you must have pulled some really shady moves to get banned — banned! — from the app.
So what were Ms. the Queen’s offenses? What depraved hijinks could she have scraped together from the depths of her sick, sick head to raise such a red flag to Grindr’s tireless and chaste moderators?
Well it turns out Bob the Drag Queen had the audacity to represent herself on the grids of Grindr as none other than Bob the Drag Queen.
Needless to say, the whole thing was a bit of a surprise.
How about we take this to the next level?

And it would appear Bob isn’t the only person getting the Grindr axe for impersonating Bob. It happens to Acid Betty all the time:
@thatonequeen @Grindr happens to me all the time. “But I AM BOB!!”

One would expect this mix-up to get sorted out promptly, but looks like it’s just not that simple:
@TheLadyBearica no. @Grindr has said nothing about the matter.

But where there’s a will, there is a way:
@julianmichael97 it’s never too late to send nudes. Haha

It’s hard out there for a Drag Race victor:
@DjButterBunz i can’t even get @Grindr verified. ??

These sites must have a system in place to verify the account user when the user is a famous person, right? This has got to be more and more common these days as more famous folks come out of the closet.

There’s this Bob the Drag Queen, of course, but there was another BOB, from a decade ago. Here she is with the Lady Bunny at Wigstock,
