I love people crossing into the, you know, you're a performer. You, we work hard for money
1:16
Getting 걸 her to come up here and give that kind of performance
1:21
What a trailblazing thing you're doing. I can't wait to see all your best
1:26

1:50

1:58

2:17
Yes. Way to ruin a good thing. What's your go-to vocal warm up
2:28

2:36
Me, me, me, me, me, me. Thank you. Thank you. It's so legendary
2:48
And I just had it just directly at me. I can't even believe I survived
2:53
It's surreal and so lovely to have you here. And you said something really beautiful
3:00
and you don't have to recreate it. I just want to take a moment to point out that this is extremely special especially at this point in our history because we are at a point in history right now in our country where people
3:17
I don't need to say who, but are actively trying to strip away the rights and freedoms
3:22
and liberties of citizens of this country. I'm talking about the LGBTQ AI plus community
3:35
like many marginalized communities are still fighting for equality and their rights in
3:41
23. And what keeps getting thrown in our face as a community is that it's their religious freedom
3:48
Well, I'm a drag queen on a Broadway stage with a famous Christian woman who has never used her faith
3:57
as a weapon against her body. You don't realize that there is a right side to this argument and a wrong side to this argument
4:22
You tell them, you know why, I'm not going to say that in the mic button, you can tell them
4:28
You have one, you know what? And you have Christian with a dig once in for sense
4:35
talk about this shared experience then there is no reason why anyone should try to use religion as a justification for hate It Honestly I so glad that you brought all that and I will just end that little statement with
4:58
And Kathy and I talk about this all the time. As a Christian woman, it has always been so fascinating to me that people are fascinated by me
5:06
not loving, loving the LGBTQIA community. QIA community because I just think, I always think, what would Jesus do? What would Jesus say
5:16
He would fight hate with love. He would pray those, and sometimes I want to say, you know
5:21
read between the lines. So that's really, and this is the real authentic me right now. I just
5:27
want to fight it with love. And anybody that hasn't seen that, just try to fight it with love
5:34
And even if it's spit in your face. Because then what do they have
5:39
What do they have? What can they say? God is here in this room right now
5:45
And I know some people don't believe in Jesus. Don't believe me. I'm wrapping it up. For those of us who do, we need to speak out a little bit more
