“12 Years A Slave” Star In Drag


I must be getting old. (We all are.) I had completely forgotten that Chiwetel Ejiofor, Oscar-nommed for “12 Years A Slave,” had played the drag queen in the movie version of “Kinky Boots.” I now so associate the role with Billy Porter, who stars in the smash musical version on Broadway, that I had not remembered who was in the picture. Watch the video clip above and remind yourself how much range that Ejiofor has an actor. Terrific!
