A young boy named Timothy grows up in Compton surrounded by violence and the fierce love of his mother. He grows up to become one of the most famous drag queens in the world. This is the story of that little boy, the queen he became and the many different families who have shaped them along the way.
On today's episode, we’re talking drag, drag queens and the families they make. We are honored to welcome to the #TIMFShow microphone, one of the most famous drag queens in the world...star of RuPaul's Drag Race and more...LATRICE ROYALE!
In this episode, Latrice talks about growing up in Compton, loving her mother deeply, being forced out of the closet at a young age and running away to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, which wasn't the most accepting place for young queer folks. She goes on to make her way down to Miami, spends a brief stint in jail and, on the other side, becomes a world famous drag queen.
Latrice has done interviews all over the globe, but today, we shift the spotlight to include not only Latrice in all of her fabulousness, but also the people and communities she's called "family" over the years. Join us for a series of funny and moving stories about how she shaped them and how they shaped her.
