Logo is creating six commercials for Absolut, featuring contestants from the second season of "RuPaul's Drag Race" in their full drag regalia.

Each drag performer, among them Pandora Boxx, Raven and Jujubee, will be dressed in tribute to a mixed drink made with Absolut. Pandora Boxx, for instance, is dressed like a Bloody Mary, complete with celery stalk.
