UNITED KINGDOM - Trans artist, Chrisie Edkins, is looking to help spread transgender & transsexual awareness here in the United States & around the world. Edkins is so dedicated to it that she is even willing to perform for free. From now till the end of 2012, Edkins will perform at any Pride/LGBT event around the world for free. The only requirement for the Pride organizer(s) that book her is that they must arrange transportation and accommodations for her. That’s right, just get Edkins to the event and give her somewhere to sleep, and she will perform for free.
