Tell 'em, Farrah!
Not long after the incident, Farrah tweeted about what happened and reassured Drag Race fans that there's "no need to apologise on behalf of the city- our show was amazing and theres homophobic twats all over the world. Love you guys!” She also trying to track down photos of the abusers.

Iconic!
It's a sad reality that homophobic and transphobic abuse is still a daily reality for so many in the LGBTQ community but it's heartening to see Farrah Moan fight back like that and watch all the love the pair are receiving on social media. Keep on slaying, queens!
