Even though she missed out on the All Stars 3 crown last week, Shangela’s career is doing just fine, she’ll soon be on the big screen with Lady Gaga.

The RuPaul’s Drag Race queen has dropped some hints about her role in the upcoming film A Star is Born.

Starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, the film is a remake of the 1937 film starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March.

The movie about a film star who helps an aspiring actress was remade a further two times. Once in 1954 starring Judy Garland and James Mason, and then again in 1976 starring Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.

Shangela wouldn’t give too much away about her ‘not giant’ role but said she loved working with Lady Gaga.

‘I’m in drag, I’m kind of Lady Gaga’s drag mother, a bar owner,’ Shangela told Billboard.

‘I can’t give much more away than that. But it’s gonna be really fun, it’s not a giant role but it’s a good role that’s memorable.’

It’s not the first time Lady Gaga has rubbed shoulders with a cast member of Drag Race. She appeared as a guest judge in the first episode of season nine and gave the queens notes to help them develop their drag.

Shangela had nothing but praise for Lady Gaga saying working with her was a ‘dream come true’.

‘When you look up to someone, idolize them, and their journey and experience and how they work, and then you get to work with them and see they’re everything you dreamed,’ Shangela said.

‘And she was everything I had ever dreamed she would be. Professional, kind, funny.’

The Texas-born queen will also star in the sequel to Drag Race winner, Bianca Del Rio’s film, Hurricane Bianca.

Streisand approves

Fellow gay icon, Barbra Streisand has seen parts of Gaga’s performance in the new A Star is Born and has give her approval.

‘Oh, I can’t say too much,’ Streisand told TV producer Ryan Murphy in a Q&A at PaleyFest last week.

‘I haven’t seen too much, but it’s good. It’s very, very good.’

A Star is Born will hit cinemas on 5 October this year.

I don’t have a gay bone in my body: Kendall Jenner addresses sexuality

In a recent interview with Vogue, Kendall Jenner addressed the rumors of her sexuality.

Apparently, the internet was convinced the Kardashian-Jenner clan member was gay.

Why? Well, Jenner has some ideas about that.

‘I think it’s because I’m not like all my other sisters, who are like, “Here’s me and my boyfriend!” So it was a thing for a minute because no one ever saw me with a guy,’ she explained. ‘I would always go that extra mile to be low-key with guys, sneaking around all the time. You don’t want to, like, look crazy.’

She’s fairly certain where she stands, though.

Continuing her thoughts: ‘I don’t think I have a bisexual or gay bone in my body, but I don’t know! Who knows?! I’m all down for experience—not against it whatsoever—but I’ve never been there before.’

Then, however, she concludes: ‘I’m not gay. I have literally nothing to hide. I would never hide something like that.’

So brave

Twitter quickly leapt on Jenner — and for ‘coming out’ as straight.

Incisive, witty humour came out in full.

Kendall Jenner came out as straight. I just really wish these people would keep their private lives private. Children idolize her. Now they’re goin to get the idea that being straight is okay, normal even.

— Leanna Renee (@leannuh_renay) March 14, 2018

in 10 years people are going to ask you where you were and what you were doing when kendall jenner came out as straight and i think that’s really beautiful

— jake (@HUNTYCHAN) March 14, 2018

This is so difficult for me to confess… I’ve never told this to anyone ever, not even family… but I feel like it’s finally time. So here it goes:

I’m a straight woman

Thanks Kendall Jenner for being a voice for all of us and for inspiring us to be our true selves pic.twitter.com/LHha4Ji9XB

— Ashley (new account) (@lacubeIIo) March 14, 2018

There’s also plenty of confusion.

i’m so confused by this entire paragraph of kendall jenner insisting that she’s not gay but she’s up for any experience but she’s not gay guys pic.twitter.com/MBqa7d8huO

— ellie (@eleanorbate) March 14, 2018

Others aren’t convinced someone in the family isn’t gay….

Listen I don’t care if Kendall Jenner said she’s not gay in her Vogue interview, Kris Jenner has six children you cannot convince me that they’re all straight

Tom and Abby from Queer Eye just got engaged and love is not dead

The loveable bear, Tom Jackson, from the first episode of the rebooted Queer Eye has had an emotional rollercoaster of a love life, especially since the show went to air.

One of his main motivations to get a Queer Eye makeover was to woo back his third ex-wife Abby.

Things seemed to go pretty well in the episode called ‘You Can’t Fix Ugly’, when Abby turned up to support him at a car show and seemed to enjoy Tom’s cooking efforts.

But last month, Tom announced on Twitter that the pair had split up in September last year and proceeded to post multiple, heartbreaking photos of the pair.

I just watched my episode for about the 20th time. I cry like a baby ever time I watch it. Just to let the world know, Abby and I are no longer together. She will always be the love of my life. I will always love her more than anything!!!!!!!

— Tom Jackson (@TomJack20176306) February 28, 2018

Just a week later though, Tom lifted all our spirits when he announced that he was back together with Abby.

We were all happy for the pair and it rekindled our belief that love was not cancelled.

We hear wedding bells

And in even greater news, Tom has just announced the pair is officially engaged.

‘It’s official, Abby and I are engaged. What a Netflix special the would be. If the Fab 5 planned and attended our wedding!!!!!!!!!,’ Tom wrote on Twitter less than two hours ago.

— Tom Jackson (@TomJack20176306) March 13, 2018

He also posted a photo of the pair together with Abby wearing a gorgeous engagement ring. It is not known whether it is the same engagement ring from when they first got married in the mid-90s.

Let’s hope he doesn’t serve redneck margaritas at the wedding, but this is definitely one Netflix special we would watch.

Bisexual boxer Nicola Adams turned into Barbie doll

Bisexual boxer Nicola Adams has inspired a Barbie doll, released for International Women’s Day.

The two-times Olympic gold medal winner is the first UK and bisexual star to be a ‘Shero’.

Mattel says they chose Nicola to honor her and inspire other women.

Nicola Adams is first ‘bisexual’ Barbie

‘I am so excited and honored to be… first ever boxer Barbie,’ Nicola said.

The Nicola Adams doll has boxing gloves, gear embroidered with her ‘Lioness’ nickname, and her cropped hairstyle’.

‘My hope is that everything I do helps more people realise they can do anything they put their mind to,’ Nicola added.

‘Without my own role models, I wouldn’t be where I am today.

‘Growing up, my biggest role models were my mum and Muhammad Ali – there were no female boxers in media when I was a kid, and I might have discovered my passion sooner if I’d seen other women boxing.

‘That’s why empowering the next generation of kids is something I’m passionate about. It’s great to work with Barbie to share my story now.’

Other Barbie ‘Sheroes’

Mattel has chosen 14 other women from across the world to be a Barbie ‘Shero’.

Others being honored this year include director Patty Jenkins, gold medalist Chloe Kim,and conservationist Bindi Irwin.

Also being turned into dolls are windsurfer Çağla Kubat, chef Hélène Darroze, volleyball star Hui Ruoqi, designer Leyla Piedayesh, golfer Lorena Ochoa, journalist Martyna Wojchiechowska, soccer player Sara Gama, actress and philanthropist Xiaotong Guan, ballerina Yuan Yuan Tan and fashion designer Vicky Martin Berrocal.

‘Barbie hopes to encourage girls to pursue their dreams,’ Mattel said.

Barbie have also introduced their Inspiring Women doll line – a range celebrating inspirational historical figures.

The first three dolls will be Mexican artist Frieda Kahlo, aviator Amelia Earhart and NASA mathematician Katherine Johnson, one of the women depicted in 2017 film Hidden Figures.

International Women’s Day 2018 is on Thursday 8 March.

Peppermint finally speaks out on RuPaul’s controversial trans comments.

The first openly trans woman on RuPaul’s Drag Race has broken her silence on RuPaul’s comments about trans queens..

Peppermint penned an op-ed in Billboard saying she disagreed with RuPaul’s comments.

‘Doing Drag Race was one of the best moments of my life. RuPaul kicked open so many doors for queer and gender non-conforming folks and is an absolute trailblazer in the world of drag,’ Peppermint wrote.

‘But recently, Ru made statements I disagree with.’

Earlier this week drag legend, RuPaul, created a wave of controversy after telling The Guardian that contestants who had undergone gender confirming surgery would not be allowed on his VH1 reality show.

The backlash to his comments was swift and he issued a statement a few hours later on Twitter, but stopped short of apologizing. He also incorrectly used a flag for trains rather than the trans pride flag in one of his tweets.

No one defines your womanhood

Peppermint said she has learned a lot since she started transitioning in 2012.

One of the most important lessons was that no one has the ability to define your gender identity or ‘transness’.

‘I also learned women should not be defined by what surgeries they have or haven’t had,’ she wrote.

‘The most important takeaway is that ones transition, the beginning, the middle, and end, is entirely personal and cannot be categorized or measured in the context of being blessed by someone else’s validation or approval.’

Peppermint did agree with RuPaul about one thing, that ‘drag is a big F-You to male dominated culture’.

‘Trans women and women, have always been directly and indirectly contributing to the art form of drag,’ Peppermint wrote.

‘My hope is that together, we can uplift all forms of drag, both on TV, and in the real world.

‘Gay men do not own the idea of gender performance.

‘Unfortunately it won’t be the first or last time we will hear a woman can’t do something a man can. I’m out to change that.’
