This is important.

and
@georgesalazar
in ‘Little Shop Of Horrors’ - LGBTQ+ performers of colour, portraying roles that have been dominated by white people because it’s not ‘what people are familiar with’.
For me, the most authentic Seymour and Audrey ever.
The fact the Drag Race UK S5 cast aren’t even being given a tour…. What’s the point now for the economic and psychological rollercoaster? A piece of gold plated tin?!
At least give the drags a chance to meet their public and showcase beyond the cameras.
@BrandonStraka
The category is ‘Best performance by an Actor in a leading role in a Musical’
So if you’re going to try and be snide about this beautiful human, at least fact check yourself.
THIS. This is one of the many reason I adore and admire
@NinaWest
. Not just for her insane talent and shows, but for the fact she stands up with her voice and lets it’s ring out true. BRAVO. ❤️❤️
On the eve of
@dragraceukbbc
airing tomorrow, can we take a moment to realise that this is the first season of Drag Race that has been funded by tax payers...... 😂😂😂😂 VIVA LA REVOLUTION.
Happy Pride Month.
If you’re a queer person + you are not responding to what’s going on, SHAME ON YOU.
We wouldn’t have the platforms that we do today if it wasn’t for black people.
We OWE them our rights + their lives are what we owe them.

If you test positive for Covid-19 and don’t take responsibility to isolate like is instructed by health care professionals, then you have chosen the responsibility to being an absolute wazzock who deserves nothing but a good whack in the face.
Much love ❤️

@PolitePixie
picked the snatch game
@TiaKofi
wanted to do but was told not to do it …
Tia Kofi is referenced in every episode of season 4 more then some of the contestants tbh.
Can’t wait for Pixie to wear the ice cream dress next! Camp!
Here’s a secret. 1 deserving drag artist got crowned. 11 didn’t. But you know what?
Those 12 gave us an amazing season of tv and all deserve love and support.
Including all drag across the world. Kings, Queens, Things, Whatever’s.
Queer Artists are incredible❤️

Happy birthday to the wonderful

! Cancer and Aries always are blessed to know each other and I am that for knowing you! The reunion is coming and I can’t wait for it ❤️❤️❤️
I literally just read a status about someone moaning that Pride has become to political and should be more about fun.... UHMM EXCUSE ME LAYDEH! Pride is protest for the people that are still struggling to live their authentic self. If you want a Strongbow Dark Fruits, go home ❤️
Last night’s
@dragraceukbbc
gave us 3 amazing talking points:
1) Gender Expression, Identity and the way you express your own drag is a personal journey. If you don’t feel like you understand the journey of an NB Person, try and have a respectful conversation with one about it.
Very proud of the Family Gorgeous on
#DragSOS
❤️ and yes that is my spinning head at the beginning of the episode..... my cameo will descend upon the masses!!!!
But very proud of everyone involved in the show. I cried. I laughed. I smiled ❤️
I hope any people employed with this company are getting other work.
I hope everyone who is entitled to them gets refunds.
I hope all affected with their mental health get the help they need.
I hope this begins the end of difficult work environments for any drag artists.
3) The stigma of Drag Artists not being capable to do jobs outside their drag persona can have an affect on them and their self worth. There is more to people behind a fabulous persona you get to see.
Have these conversations with your circle and learn more. It’s important ❤️
So remember the drag show for children that I ventured out with last year... FANTABULOSA is back on the road for 2019, touring all over the UK!!
We've got 3 opportunities to come and work with us on the project:
Application details are here:

tour ❤️❤️❤️ A dazzling array of artistic expression and journeying through what it means to live. I wept. I laughed. I smiled. I gasped.
A true queer visionary who I’m so very proud of ❤️ and yes, I look like a dad
JK Rowling retweeting medication that aids mental health issues is ‘lazy’...
Guess we shouldn’t talk about St Mungo’s, Chapter 23, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix should we?
I suppose torture and supporting conversion therapy is her thing too. What a Death Eater.
I know the man died. And yes it’s sad. My condolences to his family.
But bloody hell. Why are news outlets reporting them as ‘gaffes, quotes and quips’ when they are clearly discriminatory comments on race, sexuality, cultures, gender equality. 😳😳😳
I’ve just had 4 random messages telling me I’m an awful human for supporting a racist president.....
I AM NO TRUMP SUPPORTER. HE’S A RACIST, MISOGYNISTIC, QUEERPHOBIC CREATURE.
My name is a FART JOKE. Farts are funny until shit gets real. And the shit is real with that twat.
Imagine complaining about there being support acts before the headlines and saying that the support was shit…. In front of the support act….. 🙃
Well Darren from Cardiff, this support act wants you to take your feedback and shove it up your non-appreciative of drag arse 😂❤️
The BBC has become a bloated monolith devoted to metropolitan liberal groupthink, where programming and news decisions are made to impress a tiny band of followers on Twitter, rather than appeal to the great British public.
Okay.
The amount of ‘I hope you die from COVID’ direct messages I’m getting from people thinking I’m the President of the United States is ALARMING.
People need to CHILL 😂😂😂
So this is happening! I’m launching a weekly cabaret show from Saturday 14th September at
@KIKIManchester1
! I’m excited to do something a little different! Me + my resident team are gonna try and bring a taste of something different and curious to your Saturdays! 9pm - 12am! ❤️
If your polling station is in a school and you vote Tory tomorrow , you might as well shit on a student’s desk on your way out as your condemning their life to be like that ❤️
#VoteLabour
An awakening in Black Lives Matter movement across the globe to fight systemic racism.
Yet, the story of a white girl that went missing 13 years ago is frontpage in the UK Press.
They value the mystery case of a white girl more then value the fight for equality of black people.
For those people that interact with drag that hasn’t been on telly:
1) Say Hello. It’s not hard.
2) Don’t just stand there and ignore people or just say ‘oh, you were good too’
3) Don’t mistake me for
@ShadyLawrence
when you’ve literally watched me do 30 mins of show 😂😂😂
@LGBTCons
You literally damn the community you claim to be part of with every political choice you all seem to make.
Being LGBT+, Our mere existence of going out there and living our life is made political. If you support Conservatives, you stand in hate with the LGBT+ community.
Well here is it. Here is the first of hopefully many more tastes of British Drag to his the Drag Race Runway. We have a lot to offer in the world of Drag and this is just the beginning! Congrats to all the girls! May the best woman win!

@gobshitechris
If this ever happens again, message me, if I’m free I will come round we will have a laugh and a good time.
We can cast a gay hex because drag artists are good that.
I know it’s not the romantic potential dicking you would want but NEVER feel like you aren’t worthy. ❤️
2) Pay Gaps and the way that Queer Artists are being undervalued by a lot of venues and bookers is alarming and it needs to be a conversation that is openly had for people to be paid their worth for the amazing art they bring. If they don’t appreciate you, they don’t deserve you.
Losing my hair and shaving my head, the first person I needed to see was
@CheddarGorgeous
- she was there when I felt very insecure and continues to be a guiding voice in my life. That’s why she’s me drag mum ❤��� That and because we know too much about each other 😂
#DragRaceUK
Seeing as it’s
#PrideMonth
, let’s talk Pride shall we.
Somebody explain to me how
@PrideCymru
are asking their local drag artists to perform on the main stage for £25?
I’d REALLY love to know because I know you ain’t paying your other acts that 👀
I instantly fell in love with
@NinaWest
after seeing after seeing her Christmas Sex Toys number on YouTube.
Then she went on Drag Race And was realised for the star she is.
So happy to have finally met you and look forward to seeing you soon baba! ❤️❤️
