Pissi Myles showed up for Wednesday’s impeachment hearings and America took notice!
It was the first day of testimony in Trump‘s impeachment hearings and Myles, who was there reporting for the news startup Happs, in a GOP red mini dress, instantly became a viral sensation, as seen on the cover of The New York Post in The Hollywood Reporter and on The Wow Report
Myles told Out, when asked who is Pissi Myles,
“She’s fat, funny, and fabulous. That’s how I describe her. She’s just a lighthearted idiot.
I was approached by a news startup called Happs. It’s a brand new app that allows people who have an interest in journalism to partake in it by sharing the stories that are happening around them.
It was surreal. There was no way for me to anticipate what I was walking into. By the time I got inside and realized that I was literally steps away from the hall where they were holding the impeachment hearings, it hits you like a wave — you’re standing in something that’s going to be part of American history. Not only that, but I’m making a social commentary by being there in drag and being a voice for queer and other marginalized people. It was really overwhelming.
…it was surprisingly positive. I really didn’t experience a lot of rudeness. It was such an unanticipated, wonderful experience.
It’s unusual to see a drag queen in Congress, and that’s the thing that’s going to save us, if we can start to see that things are not as serious as we think they are. There are so many important things, but they can be dealt with if we take a deep breath, step back, and say,
‘This is something we have every means of fixing and addressing. We don’t have to be so hateful.'”
