Adore Delano (Daniel Anthony Noriega) Quotes
If you come to one of my shows, you’re coming to a show with a fully thought-out character. I don’t need to ‘use drag’ to further my career. It just so happens that I’m one pretty motherfucker in eyelashes. I’m a fully thought-out character, so it kind of hurt my feelings, especially in the beginning. But all drag queens are different little universes, and if you can’t see that I’m another part of the rainbow, then fuck off.
