Jessy Dubai Chats LGBT Issues With ABC News Radio

NEW YORK CITY — Jessy Dubai recently spoke with ABC News Radio about the intersection of LGBT social issues with mainstream entertainment.

The trans star spoke about the Emmy-nominated FX network drama “Pose” and Taylor Swift’s advocacy for the LGBT community.

"When someone famous uses their platform in order to make a positive impact, I think that's something to praise them for," Dubai told ABC Radio. "So (Swift) knowing that she has this huge platform and she can do something about it — which is positive? It's something amazing.”
