Plus, she even received plenty of compliments for her natural good looks out of drag all over social media. "It was unexpected! It's truly insane to comprehend. I got sexy Trixie! That one I'm keeping in my pocket. I've been a kept woman for 10 years, so getting that reaction was nice. Baby, the men out there are thirsty. It's the wild west," Mitchell tells Out.
