The term "drag" may have been given a wider circulation in Polari(Polari or alternatively Palare, from Italian parlare, "to talk", was a form of cant slang used in the gay subculture in Britain) a gay street argot in England in the early part of the last century. An abbreviation of "dressed as girl". Some authors says it came from the Shakespeare plays, earlier, in England, actors in Shakespearean plays, and indeed in all Elizabethan theater, tragedy as well as comedy, were all male; female parts were played by young men in drag, and “dressea as girl” was written in baseboard when there is a female character. The term originated either in gay slang in the 1870s. And the term Drag Queen appeared in print in 1941. Drag Queen is different from crossdresser, and it is used only for man, and crossdresser could be a man or a woman, not necessarily gay.

A woman who beats men in a drag contest, and wins the Wally at an NHRA (United States) or the Christmas Tree (ANDRA) event. The woman must be a real woman, defeat men, and win the champion's trophy to be crowned a Drag Queen. Courtney Force, Erica Enders-Stevens, and Alexis DeJoria are three examples of Drag Queens in this decade.

I think that its a popular girl that is a drag around other people. I also wondering if you are Miley Cyrus's friend or how you got the information stating that if you told someone Miley's phone number, Miley might bring charges against you.

It'a like saying "it sucks." It's a burden. I'd rather be doing something else.

A transvestite, a man who wears women's clothing. A female impersonator is the PC term for them.
