Tammy Faye Messner Hosts 'Drag Bingo'
DURHAM, N.C. (Jan. 5) - A "drag bingo" event hosted by Tammy Faye Messner drew about 700 people to raise money for an AIDS service organization.
The former Tammy Faye Bakker said she was one of the first women to speak out about caring for people with AIDS when she was on the "The PTL Club" television show with her ex-husband in the 1980s.
"I was just doing what Jesus wanted me
to do."

"I was just doing what Jesus wanted me to do," said Messner, who has remarried and lives in the Charlotte area. She divorced televangelist Jim Bakker in 1992 while he was serving a sentence for financial fraud.
About 15 drag queens participated in "An Evening with Tammy Faye," including "Sierra Nevada," who wore a royal blue dress and heels.
"I am wearing sensible shoes and this church dress because it is Tammy Faye, and because my feet still hurt from wearing 8-inch heels a month ago," Sierra Nevada said.
The event was expected to raise $10,000 for Alliance of AIDS Services-Carolina. Those who attended filled out bingo cards as numbers were called by Messner, who joined the drag queens in entertaining the crowd.
Messner will appear on the WB network's "The Surreal Life" starting Jan. 11.
