“For me, it’s personal, because I have rheumatoid arthritis,” the comedian and sportscaster confessed to RuPaul. “I was diagnosed when I was in my early thirties and it changed my life, because I was young and in the best shape of my life — and in about 18 months, I became a shell of myself. This disease ravaged me. I have permanent destruction in my feet. I’ve had inflammation throughout my body. I was depressed. I lost who I was. And then I got treatment and I got better, but I never got back to who I was. I’ve kind of felt like an old man since then. And I would love to find like a fluidity and a confidence out there. … I’m hoping I come out like some starlet diva.”

Project HEAL, had his own emotional Drag Race journey. “I love this show, because it’s something that I think is very, very special, especially right now when we’re in a time when we are breaking down the barriers of what it means to be a man,” he explained. “I grew up in a pretty small town in northern Canada. For me, as a little boy, it’s like you had these ideas of what it means to be a man, and through my entire life, I’ve always felt like that doesn’t fit for me. …When I finally found Drag Race, it was like this ‘a-ha!’ moment where I could just be like, ‘Oh my God, these people are defining their identity for themselves and just being themselves.’”” data-reactid=”51″ type=”text”>Iseman sashayed away with $20,000 for the Arthritis Foundation, but Milligan, who earned the same amount of prize money for Project HEAL, had his own emotional Drag Race journey. “I love this show, because it’s something that I think is very, very special, especially right now when we’re in a time when we are breaking down the barriers of what it means to be a man,” he explained. “I grew up in a pretty small town in northern Canada.

This is something I’m never going to forget.”
“It’s really empowering to see heterosexual/straight/cisgender/white Dustin Milligan be so open about how the gender roles that were thrust upon him that he never felt comfortable with. It’s brave of him,” added his mentor, Nina.
