AT&T & The Trevor Project celebrated National Coming Out Day with 3 concerts in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. New York performances included Betty Who, Parson James, and Carmen Carrera at Stage 48 in Manhattan. Over 200 mega fans spent the evening getting a preview of Betty Who & Parson James’ upcoming albums, which will be released in 2019, and Carmen Carrera announced a South American tour and revealed she’d love to be a part of an upcoming season of RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars.
