A trio of men dressed in women's clothing and sporting long hair, and who declared themselves to be drag queens, caused quite a stir at the Norman Manley International Airport last Saturday.
The men, who were reportedly turned back from Curaçao, caught the eyes and attentions of both airport staff as well as those in the airport's arrival section.

A source from the airport told THE WEEKEND STAR that the men, who said they were going to the island for a drag queen show, left Jamaica on Saturday morning only to return later that night. The source said the Immigration authorities in Curaçao had denied the men access to the country. They reportedly claimed that they were going to the island to participate in a drag queen show.
The men, who were all wearing tights, skinny jeans, form fitting blouses and the latest wigs, caught the eyes of everyone with their effeminate demeanour and 'over the top' personalities. One of the men reportedly sported a Louis Vuitton bag, which hung from his elbow.
After leaving the arrivals section, the men also created a scene on the outside of the airport where persons who had come to meet their relatives were gathered.
Attempts to contact the immigration officials in Curaçao were futile.
