The process of going on 'Drag Race' is, in my opinion, more than a fiscal investment. It's cultural. It's the 'Game of Thrones' of reality TV.

Activism doesn't always mean laying in the streets and getting arrested and shouting 'hell no, we won't go' at the top of your lungs.

Confidence has not always been something I had in my whole life. But when I found it? Man you don't have to be confident in every area of your life.
