Age Quote by Manila Luzon

“There's a difference between being a drag queen on TV where the masses can tune in and watch, and then at a nightclub where you have to be a certain age to get in. There's a different decorum. We're all trying to push boundaries, but also trying to stay in our lane.” quote by Manila Luzon
