Latrice Royale on 'Harlem Nights' (1989)

Feeling Seen

Drag superstar Latrice Royale has been in the game since before Ru Paul's Drag Race was a phenomenon. She won Miss Congeniality on her season of that show, and went on to appear on All-Stars and Drag U. An actor and performer, Latrice is one of the co-hosts of the just-launched Season 4 of HBO's We're Here. And if you know anything about Latrice, just a few moments with Della Reese's character, Vera Walker, in the Eddie Murphy-directed dramedy Harlem Nights will show you how Latrice's persona may have been shaped by Vera's no-nonsense power and heart of gold.

Then, Jordan has one quick think about Humane, directed the latest Cronenberg to join the family business, Caitlin.
