The It Girl Podcast with Britney Shields

This week on The It Girl Podcast, Britney Shields (@itsbritneyshields) is joined by three-time Emmy Award–winning makeup artist and all-around creative powerhouse Glen Alen (@glenalen) for a glittering, gossipy, and gloriously unfiltered conversation.

We cover everything from club to kids to the cultural controversy:
  • Cynthia Erivo’s iconic turn in Jesus Christ Superstar
  • Sydney Sweeney’s controversial jeans ad (and the trend of scandal marketing)
  • The Las Culturistas Culture Awards 
  • The legacy of Susanne Bartsch  
  • The enduring glamour of club kid culture, Boy George, and Grace Jones
  • The omnipresence of RuPaul, and building a drag career outside of Drag Race’s shadow
  • How the internet has changed the drag community 
  • Brandi Glanville’s accidental face fire (yes, really)
  • And our heartfelt pleas for Legendary and Precinct to thrive
💌 Special note: If you’re in Los Angeles, go visit Precinct, downtown’s beloved gay club and drag hub. Buy a drink, tip the queens, and help keep this iconic space from closing its doors.
 
The It Girl Podcast is filmed and produced by Mimi von Schack (@mimi.vonschack), Devin O’Brien (@devinobrien06), and Twenty Beach Productions (@twentybeachproductions
