In Memory of Legendary Jennifer Banks Evisu



Legendary Jennifer Banks Evisu, Reigning Miss Gay Caribbean USA, Face & Realness Diva, Hair Stylist Extraordinaire, performer and LGBT activist passed away this week due to medical complications. This post is to honor her memory and her legacy. I usually would write on and on about her life, her accomplishments and her contributions but her actions speak louder than any words I could type. (Click here to read her NY Daily News Article) So I leave it to Jennifer to showcase what makes her such a loved, appreciated and well-respected woman in the ballroom/pageant/LGBT scene...

I present to you...
LEGENDARY JENNIFER BANKS EVISU

Myself and the 'Getting My Life' staff send our condolences to Jennifer's Family and Friends. She was an inspiration and shall be missed.
