You may know Crystal from the very first series of Ru Paul's Drag Race UK. However, the Canadian drag queen has been in the news recently for another reason: making LGBT history by taking on Laurence Fox for defamation, and winning.
Crystal takes us through the complexities of the past 3 and a half years, from Laurence Fox calling them a pedophile on Twitter to winning their libel case on all counts. Plus, Crystal tells us about that iconic Elle Woods look. This is a truly empowering story about the importance of sticking up for yourself.
