Have you heard any good gossip lately? Our guest for today's Culure Club episode certainly has!

You may know Crystal from the very first series of Ru Paul's Drag Race UK. However, the Canadian drag queen has been in the news recently for another reason: making LGBT history by taking on Laurence Fox for defamation, and winning.

Crystal takes us through the complexities of the past 3 and a half years, from Laurence Fox calling them a pedophile on Twitter to winning their libel case on all counts. Plus, Crystal tells us about that iconic Elle Woods look. This is a truly empowering story about the importance of sticking up for yourself.
