GIGI GORGEOUS

A couple of years ago, Gigi Gorgeous made big news around the LGBTQ community after she got detained in a national airport in Dubai by airport officials and immigration officers because of her gender. That issue made a huge ruckus and to a point that Gigi’s camp was already considering hiring a lawyer and taking the matter into the legal side of things.

Fortunately, things settled down but that incident raised global awareness for LGBTQ communities about the status of certain countries and their take about their gender choices. She recently released her memoir, He Said, She Said: Lessons, Stories, and Mistakes From My Transgender Journey.
