"female impressionism"

I was looking at this thing right now on gay celebrities (I NEED TO STOP FOCUSING ON RANDOM TRIVIA AND DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE WITH MY LIFE), and there was a caption on one of the guys saying that he was a "New York female impressionist."

Of course, my first thought was that he was a painter. He was, indeed, holding a painting in the picture of him.

But then the rest of the caption talked about how he was beaten and stuff for being gay and how he was dressed. And that's when I realized that being a "female impressionist" has nothing to do with actually being female or being an impressionist.

It has everything to do, apparently, with being a drag queen.

The news media... is so strange. "Female impressionism?" At least they could pick a phrase that doesn't come hand in hand with images of Renoir and Manet. O.o;;

UPDATE: A real female impressionist.
