Not a Tyler fan, bit I respect his hustle and philanthropy...
The difference between him in drag and almost everyone else he's compared to though, is that he has done it so much, that it is what he is primarily known for by the masses.
when people think of Martin, for the most part I don't think shenanai or mama payne is the first thing that pops into people's mind. As a performer he's closer to Rupaul than he is to Martin or Eddie, etc.
