The Armless Drag Queen | BORN DIFFERENT ─ Barcroft TV

SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft TV: http://bit.ly/Oc61Hj

AN armless drag queen is storming Newcastle's drag scene with her act as a masturbating T-Rex. Sophie Harris has thrombocytopenia absent radius - also known as TAR syndrome - a rare congenital disorder which meant she was born without forearms. The 26-year-old has found confidence and acceptance by performing as a drag artist inspired by the famous - and armless - Greek statue. Sophie saw her first drag show on holiday in Turkey when she was ten-years-old and instantly fell in love with their flamboyance. She initially held back from the scene until she learned more about female bodied and transgender drag queens and decided to create her own drag persona, Venus Dimilo.
