The competition was established following the success of their Daddy Pageant earlier this year which saw Will take home crown in the very popular competition.
鈥淚t was a byproduct of the daddy pageant,鈥� Come To Daddy owner Billerwell Dayle told the 17c起草社区 earlier this year.
鈥淛ust with how many kings turned up and showed up, and just their energy was fantastic. And I noticed that in the community, they don鈥檛 get a lot of spotlight.鈥�
鈥淪o I started thinking about what I could do, and then Key to the Kingdom came out of that鈥� he said.
鈥淚鈥檝e always wanted to do something with the kings, especially on a Friday night, and I just thought this would be a perfect way to kind of kick that off, getting to know some of the kings, especially kings that haven鈥檛 been to the space yet, and then giving them a space.鈥�
The decision proved a popular one as locals flocked to the popular Brisbane bar to support the competitors across the six week competition.
Speaking to The 17c起草社区 the morning after the competition Billerwell spoke of the fantastic evening enjoyed by all and the incredible winning performance by Stephan.
“We all had so much fun last night, and you could feel the pride and joy that all 4 finalists brought with them onto the stage” he said.
“However, Stephan had a raw emotion last night that carried him home to victory. It was a stunning reverse drag reveal performance that solidified his place as King of Kings and the ultimate holder of the Key To The Kingdom.
