Kirsten Gillibrand wants to be president, but for one night, she was hanging with queens.

The New York senator and Democratic hopeful stopped by a gay bar in Des Moines, Iowa, Friday night. She joined the girls backstage, swapped dresses with a drag queen, and painted her mug for the gods. (Translation: she applied makeup beautifully.)

On Friday night, Gillibrand wrote on Twitter that she had been invited by “Vana and the amazing queens at the Blazing Saddle for a visit before their show. I felt underdressed, so I brought a dress I picked up yesterday—turns out it fit me, but it fit Vana even better! Thank you for having me, ladies!”

The Saddle, as the bar is referred to by locals, is a gay bar in Des Moines. It has been known as “Gay Cheers” since it opened in 1983.

The New York lawmaker also posted a photo of some good old-fashioned girls-being-girls action, putting on her lipstick in front of a mirror.
