'Drag Race's Pearl Went From Twink to Hunk Offscreen
\u201crt if ur not ok\u201d— pearl (@pearl ) 1432053855
We met Pearl Liason on RuPaul's Drag Race season seven. The performer had a penchant for looks, wasn't big on words, and caught the eyes of quite a few fans as the show's resident hottie. At the time, Pearl was a bit of a tattoed twink (by that we just mean slender) but as revealed on social media this weekend, she's filled out a bit (the tattoos are still there!).
"I think of her often," Pearl wrote in a recent Instagram post. In it, she included a carousel of photos. The first featured her in her newly muscled prowess while the second featured a much more slim Pearl from her season. Here, we take a look back through some of her photos for a journey through the transformation.
