Screen talk event with makers of the film ‘Emilia Pérez’
Like most of my tweeps, this trans-identified male came to my attention following his hysterical tizzy to Cannes when he won Best Actress, in typical AGP fashion, taking the full throttle approach in an appeal for pity.

He also ticks the G too, as he had a very short period where he was exclusively same sex attracted and didn’t date girls.
