1/13
I have to get something off of my chest.Something that has been weighing very heavy on me for a long time now, but I feel needs to be said for me and for many other right now. I want to preface this with, I'm not sure how this will be taken,if people will support me or not,
13/13
I'll be okay, and I'll be safe.
Please take care, and remember to love yourselves.
This is a ps after reading everything: I was never threatened to be blacklisted or anything from anywhere. EVER. The stigma of sex work, made ME believe that would be a consequence.
3/ 13 against asian sex workers,
I wanted to come out and say that I was a sex worker, specifically working with massage until my debut on season 12.
Why is it important that I come out and say this to everyone? Everyday I have felt the emotional weight of keeping this secret
6/ 13
But right now people need to see, need to hear, and need to know that we need to
#stopasianhate
, and protect sexworkers. What happened last night was
exactly what it looks like. A hate crime against Asian people.
BIG PSA FOR ALL ROCKMSAKURA Fans!!!🚀🚀🚀
We do not send hate to anyone else at ALL. Let me repeat that: AT ALL. Do not take decisions made on this TV so hard that you send hate to real life people. Instead send love to your favs, or dont say anything at all
No toxic fans HERE

How scared I am right now. After this tweet, I hope you will all respect me enough
to understand that I will talk about this further if I want to. But, also know I don't regret doing sexwork and I don't feel shame now that I've come out publicly and said it.
5/13 did for a living, and I had to lie and say I was a fulltime queen because I didn't want to get kicked off (I didn't know if I would, I was just scared). The truth is, my job paid for my expenses while I lived in SF, and helped me pursue and fund my drag,
even on drag race.

Thank you all for reading. This tweet has left me very vulnerable. I really don't know how it will go. If I'll get cancelled, if I lose my supporters. I know I didn't have to make this
tweet. But, I wanted to be brave. Please know I love you all,
4/13 from the community,and my fanbase,because of fear of being blacklisted from things like tv appearances and all stars,slut shamed publicly,or losing job opportunities in different countries (I was never threatened or told I was) . I remember feeling shame during DR when asked

I want everyone to have perspective, that could easily have been me, it
could easily have been people you care about and love.
I have felt safety in the lgbt community, while I was working. I have felt strong and supported. Please, I urge you, if you are a fan of me, of
8/ 13
of drag, and LGBTQIA+
person or ally, please help protect our community right now. Please keep Asian people safe.
I have often distanced myself from talking about matters involving myself sexually, tried to distance myself from thirst baiting,
2/13 if people will leave the fanbase, or send me hate messages, unsubscribe or whatever. Because I don't think those things matter right now.
With the violent crimes that have been affecting the Asian community as of recently and the hate crimes that were committed last night
9/ 13
and avoided talking about
my sex life, because to me, Sakura is not Bryan. Sakura is my vessel for expressing my love of all things cute and kawaii, fun and wild. But I think it's important
right now to use her platform to help you realize how much this means to me.
Please make sure to be nice!!! Even if your person didnt win, do not take this opportunity to send hate to the girl that won. Send love to girls you supported.
12/13
and it has been so wonderful being with you all. I hope that you can all support me, I really do. Please support the families of victims, in anyway you can.
I'm going to log off social media for a while because this post has been giving me anxiety all day.
You don't know what a weight this last episode has been on my shoulders. I have wanted to tell you all so much, that I had it on my tattoo sleeve for the Ruveal when we all first saw each other.
Stop supporting brands that are blatantly racist. I don't care how BOMB you think that lipstick is, formulas can be replicated or made better by other brands, if you are still sporting his brand you are supporting a racist. Point BLANK. NEVER RECREATE MY FACE WITH HIS STUFF
I'm getting so much support from all of you! I couldn't be more happy than I am now. I have never felt more validated in my feelings, than I am when I read messages with similar experiences. Thank you for opening up to me. I'm so glad we can all be together 😭😭😭💖💖💖
I don't know who needs to hear it today, but: where you are in your life right now doesnt define your worth. I worked in fast food for 10 years, and always thought I couldn't do anything else besides blend smoothies and smile. That wasnt true for me, and it isnt for you either 🥰

had my favorite outfit on last night on

Honestly, I never understand why people give shit for costumes on DR. Especially when the performer is going outside the box, is incorporating bright colors that stand out on the runway, and is creating narratives.
