Lexi Love on the Legal Battle Over Her Name

What happens when an actress comes after your drag name? Lexi Love (RuPaul's Drag Race S17) joins Nicole to talk through the legal fight she never expected to be in and what it is costing her to protect her career. She opens up about the panic attacks she had while filming her season of Drag Race, and shares the mistreatment she experienced while in rehab, which ended up traumatizing her. Plus, Lexi also talks about her past life teaching anti money laundering to bankers, her best dates, and the night she was left abandoned with a bill she couldn’t pay.
