Meet Zuhal: One Of The Most Prominent Names In The Lebanese Drag Scene

Lebanon’s drag scene continues to flourish and grow more vibrant as the years go by. However, this incredible artform remains unknown to many. This podcast episode is here to shed light on the drag community in Lebanon, featuring one amazing and hilarious drag queen: Zuhal.


Known for presenting quirky and hilarious astrology videos, Zuhal routinely takes us on trips to Kawkab Zuhal with hilarious content and impeccable make up looks. Content creator, comedian, and drag queen Zuhal took on the art of drag a few years back, making a major mark in the LGBTQ+ community across many Arab countries. Zuhal’s talent, artistry, and fiery personality was even featured on the list of VogueWorld’s 100 Pushing Boundaries.


Today, Zuhal thrives while performing drag shows across Lebanon, with every show being more unforgettable than the last. Comedy, relatable content, and amazing looks are guaranteed.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Zuhal on our Beirut Buzz podcast. The episode is here to give you all the intel on the art of drag. Our host Lama is joined by the one and only Ziad, AKA Zuhal, to discuss the Lebanese drag scene, mental health, the social stigmas associated with drag, and so much more.
