Drag Race winner Tyra Sanchez arrested after protesting with “big old dildo”

James Ross, formerly known as ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ winner Tyra Sanchez, has been arrested again in Florida.

The star was arrested on 6 July in Starke after publicly protesting his latest arrest in May for allegedly attempting to resist arrest in the wake of a car accident.

“We’ve arrested James William Ross. He came out and was in his little outfit, and he had the police sign, hanging it up and showing and dancing,” the Chief of Police, Jeff Johnson, told Entertainment Weekly.

“He was in a little G-string with a black bra on. It still was within the ‘freedom of speech’ category. The problem we had was it was in an intersection within a construction zone, but it wasn’t really causing a traffic problem.”

The officer added that it became an issue after Ross “went home” and came back with “a big old dildo” strapped on under his tights.

“He comes back out on the road and starts shaking it,” he continued, “and that’s when people started stopping and cussing at him, and causing a traffic problem. It was bad from there on.”

Johnson stated that Ross will be booked on one charge of breach of peace.

After winning season two of ‘Drag Race’ in 2010, Ross retired his drag persona in March 2020 and announced his desire to distance himself from the show.

Two years after that, in 2022, Ross announced that he would return to drag in exclusive performances on OnlyFans under the new name of King Tyra.

Lithuania's top court strikes down unconstitutional 'gay propaganda' law
First introduced in 2009, the law was used to ban children’s books featuring LGBTQ+ characters or same-sex relationships, and restricted broadcasting material on LGBTQ+ identities on public television programmes.In its ruling, the court found that information about diverse family structures and relationships cannot automatically be deemed “inappropriate” for children.Moreover, it was found that the so-called ‘gay propaganda’ law restricts children’s development into “mature, well-rounded individuals”, which goes against the state’s constitutional duty to ensure “harmonious and comprehensive child development”. The court also ruled that the law fails to respect human rights, dignity, and democratic values of equality, pluralism and tolerance.Activists in Lithuania had already challenged the ‘gay propaganda’ law before the European Court of Human Rights, which found that the ban violated the European Convention on Human Rights.In a statement following the Constitutional Court’s ruling, activist group Lithuanian Gay League said: “While direct enforcement of (this) provision decreased in recent years, its presence in law continued to cast a long shadow over Lithuania’s LGBTIQ+ community.“The provision’s existence created a significant chilling effect, leading to self-censorship among LGBTIQ+ individuals, organisations, and media outlets,” the statement continued.
