The clip was first posted by Hawaii-area drag queen Marina del Rey to her Facebook profile. In the two-minute long clip, the woman, identified as Beth Bourne, begins recording video with her cell phone and starts berating drag queens that were in the lobby of the Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach.
The clip opens with her asking for someone to call the police, before launching into her tirade.....
She again asks to speak to the police and she apparently got her wish. Del Rey says that Bourne was handcuffed and escorted out of the hotel for causing a disturbance. Bourne was not actually arrested or charged, del Rey said, but the hotel did tresspass her from the property.
In another post, del Ray said that the queens were there to record a video for a pageant. The premise of the video was that the drag queens were posing as hotel staff while in full drag.
"This woman saw us filming and came to a slow burn and then she popped off. Her rant went on and on - possibly with the attempt to get a riled angered response. She didnt get one. In this video - you see my perspective. In her video - u will see three drag queens surrounded by staff and guests - just sitting down," del Rey wrote.

I am amused that this "lady" had to be handcuffed

OP
They really should have after this scandal where a Moms for Liberty co-founder's husband raped their lover.

In western culture, way back when, women and girls weren't allowed to perform on stage.

Instead of becoming more compassionate towards trans people, she became more hate-filled.

That was uncivilized and hateful. I suggest she try to put a little love in her heart

That one may be a step too far. If I took my grandkids to a hotel where there was a youth paster convention going on....

I saw Chappell Roan at the Norva in Norfolk VA a couple of weeks ago. Awesome concert.

Since Republicans have made men in drag the worst sin in the world, this should be a political ad this year.

What an idiot. From what I can see, everyone was more polite to her than they needed to be.

Hotels should compile a list of these cretins who cause a disturbance to their other guests.

Why are right wingers and the religious right so dead set against gays, trans, and others? --- Misdirection.
