Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Grace Jones, and the Spice Girls are just a few of the countless guests that have frequented Lucky Cheng's over the years. The popular spot boats New York City's longest-running Drag Dinner Show and celebrated their silver anniversary in raucous fashion on Thursday.

Paulina the Princess of Power hosted the festivities at Stage 48, where drag performers like Phaedra Phaded, Nedra Belle, and Lailah Lancing joined professional wrestler Rick Cataldo aka TheBoyDiva for a celebratory event that also served as the launch of Matter of Pride, a new drag wrestling show to be featured at Lucky Cheng's and the first of its kind.

Proceeds from the event supported The Tutu Project, a nonprofit that helps fund expenses for breast cancer patients that are not covered by insurance. Click through to see some of the scenes from the evening.
