How do you deal with copycats?
Copy cats serve their purpose. They make you more creative in the sence that they make me change my style again in order to be as unique as possable.
How high are you heals?
7-8 inch boots and I have had one or two falls. One serious one in Russia when I was working as a backing dancer for Nikki Bell at a music awards, I slipped on a bottle at the after party and had to go the ozzy the next day before flying back. Hung over like I'd never felt before, ugh. Liver oh mercy.

Always good moments. Don't ever leave the house unless I'm more than happy in the mirror. I'v workd it in a bin bag before now and I looked AMAZING. Best drag moment.....working on the bedlam boat party after garlands at Eden ,Ibiza.
