“Jimmy Moore behind the glitter”, feature in Fugues magazine
Fugues magazine dedicates a long feature to Jimmy Moore, drag artist and Taylor Swift impersonator. The article reveals what happens behind the scenes of his Eras Tour tribute in Québec, his new book La Taylor Swift du Québec and the path he has taken through early conflicts, tensions in the drag scene and a lot of resilience.

Published on November 26, 2025 on the Fugues website, the article “Jimmy Moore derrière les paillettes” explores Jimmy’s journey through his tribute shows, his books and his special connection with his audience. Journalist Samuel Larochelle is just as interested in the packed venues as he is in the human being who had to learn from his mistakes and find his place in the drag family.
In this feature, Fugues talks about:
-
The Eras Tour phenomenon, Jimmy Moore style
How his recreation of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has gathered tens of thousands of people over more than thirty shows, with a loyal crowd where Swifties and families come back again and again.
-
His book La Taylor Swift du Québec
Jimmy talks about how proud he is to publish, his long time dream of seeing his books in bookstores and how writing lets him create a more intimate bond with his fans.
-
The realities of working as a drag artist
He openly discusses the tough working conditions, the sacrifices, the exhaustion, the conflicts and everything the audience does not see, far beyond the glitter and the lights. His goal is to show the truth behind the stage, not only the glamorous version.
-
His personal evolution
Jimmy looks back on his beginnings, the ego he once had, tensions with other drag artists and the way he has learned, over time, to let his work speak for itself instead of hiding behind a persona inspired by his idols.
-
His view on public controversies
He explains that he prefers to make up his own mind about people, even when they are controversial, and that he is wary of social media storms built on half information and outrage.
