The drag entertainer Shane Jenek, better known to the world as Courtney Act, has lived a pretty remarkable life and she’s just getting started.

A front runner on season 6 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, Courtney’s season included many memorable people and moments that became a big part of queer culture.

But it wasn’t all fun, glitter and games. The show had issues with its lack of trans representation which put Courtney in the awkward situation of getting blocked by host RuPaul on Twitter for speaking out against the silent ban.

Ironically, today gender is more fluid than ever, and it feels like all the contestants on Drag Race are either trans or non binary.

Today Australian sensation Courtney Act joins us to give us the inside scoop on writing her new book Caught in the Act: A Memoir by Courtney Act

Episode #3057

In this episode I'm joined by one of the first artists in the world to show their gender fluidity...the super talented Courtney Act.
Courtney, who was one of the stars of Season 6 of RuPaul's Drag Race, is not only a spectacular performer but is incredibly eloquent and passionate and we have a wonderfully honest chat about her childhood, gender fluidity, identity and of course beauty and what it means to both Courtney and Shane.
I loved getting to know Courtney so intimately and can't wait for you to do the same.
Courtney's show Fluid is coming to the UK in Spring 2021. You can buy tickets here http://courtneyact.com/fluid/
