Former Rep. George Santos announced Monday that he will revive his drag queen persona in customized videos for sale on Cameo.
Santos, the first-term Republican who was ousted from Congress in December, said on X that he would create the Cameo account for his drag alter ego, Kitara Rivache, for a limited time.
“Y’all weren’t ready for this drop?” Santos, 35, said. “I’ve decided to bring Kitara out of the closet after 18 years!”
The personalized videos that he creates on Cameo — a digital platform that lets fans pay celebrities to record short, customized videos — will cost $350 each, according to the new account’s page. Santos started using Cameo just days after he was ousted from Congress; in December, he told Semafor that the money he made on the platform in just 48 hours exceeded the $170,000 he would have made serving in Congress for the entire year.
The disgraced former congressman from New York said 20% of the proceeds from his Kitara videos will go to two nonprofits: International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, which aims to build support for Israel by fostering connections between Jews and Christians; and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, which supports first responders, military service members, veterans and, according to its website, helps “America to Never Forget September 11, 2001.”
