When you think you’ve found the trans flag but accidentally Google something else
RuPaul has faced a backlash over comments the drag queen made last week about allowing openly transgender people to compete on his VH1 reality programme, RuPaul’s Drag Race.
That need not bother us right now. What is interesting is how RuPaul chose to respond on Twitter. People noticed there was, maybe, something not quite right.
In the 10 years we’ve been casting Drag Race, the only thing we've ever screened for is charisma uniqueness nerve and talent. And that will never change. pic.twitter.com/0jsyt6MRvO
