“Don’t come at me with that mess,” says Porter of the perceived snub (via toofab)
"There's never anything negative coming from me. You're never going to get from it. Okay. It's all love, all love, it's all positivity. Don't come to me with that," Porter continued.
He then detailed his close relationship with RuPaul and said the perceived slight was probably the camera filming him at the wrong time. "They can catch me and it can look like a side-eye, [but] RuPaul is a friend of mine," he said. "I am so proud of him. I stand on his shoulders. I stand on his shoulders. He is doing it. He paved the way for me, so there's never a side-eye about that.
