LA-based drag queen laurenbanall has gone viral with performances cosplaying as Erika Kirk, and is now using her virality to fundraise for US civil rights charity the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). In two videos shared over the weekend, Lauren Banall appears dressed in a red blazer and black trousers, with a long blonde wig pulled back and pinned up. She is donning eye-bulging blue contact lenses. Both clips have since gone viral, and at the time of writing have a combined viewership of more than six million. In a third video, Lauren Banall introduced herself in Erika Kirk drag as “Erika Qwerk” and urged her newfound followers to donate to her GoFundMe page, which is raising money to support the ACLU. The ACLU campaigns for the rights of marginalised and persecuted minorities, including the transgender and wider LGBTQ+ community and immigrants. #LGBTQNews #Drag #ACLU #DragQueen
