Actress Charlize Theron, 47, has come to the defense of the drag queen community after US politicians promised to look into the possibility of enacting stricter laws against the group. Representatives of the most conservative wing of the US government accuse drag queens of sexualizing children and want to restrict or even ban the performances of many artists in the field.
Winner of the Oscar for Best Actress in 2004 for her work in “Monster: Assassin Desire” (2003), the actress is the mother of a trans girl and participated in the event “Drag Isn’t Dangerous”, which draws attention to prejudice and false allegations about drag, as well as raising funds for LGBTQIA+ causes. “We love you queens! We’re on your side, and I will screw anyone that’s, like, trying to screw anything up with you,” Charlize said in a video released after the meeting.
She even refuted the accusation that drag queens interfere and harm the formation of a child. “In all seriousness, there are so many things that are hurting and really killing our kids, and we all know what I’m talking about right now,” she began. She continued to vent. “No more room for hate, only love, and love equals drag queens!”
In addition to Theron, actresses Marcia Gay Harden and Melissa McCarthy, actor Jesse Eisenberg, comedian Sarah Silverman and other Hollywood stars were present at the event, which also featured performances by several famous drag queens.
