An 8-year-old drag queen has given excellent advice and got some of her own from Drag Race star Vivacious.

The Canadian queen, Lactatia, appears in a video with the RuPaul’s Drag Race star and gives some pretty good advice about doing things you’re scared of.

In the video, posted by ELLE magazine, Lactatia says: “Lactatia is the diva-est diva you could ever think of.

“If you’re shy because of people that don’t want you to do something then you have to just man up and be like Ok I’m not listening to you I can do what I want. And this is what I want to do.”

She is then surprised by Vivacious who tells her to “keep going”.

Check out the video below:

Canadian Nemis Quinn Mélançon Golden hit the headlines earlier this year when he stole the show during a Bianca Del Rio comedy set.

In his breakthrough moment, RuPaul’s Drag Race queen Bianca Del Rio pulled him onstage was performing in Montreal, Canada, as part of the Werq the World Tour.

The eight-year-old Montreal native won the audience over with his sassy answers, explaining that it wasn’t his first drag show.

Bianca told him: “I absolutely adore you.

“I love the fact that you’re here, and what I love most about this is that your mum is here supporting you.”

And under his stage name, Lactatia, he carried on taking the world by storm in an interview with YouTube channel LGBT in the city.

Speaking with poise and certainty, he told the audience: “I think that anyone can do what they want in life.

“It doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks,” he continued.

“If you wanna be a drag queen and your parents don’t let you, you need new parents.

“If you wanna be a drag queen and your friends don’t you, you need new friends.”

Wise words.
