READ TIME: 1 MIN.
"RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 7 winner Violet Chachki took to Twitter Saturday to share a disturbing incident that went down at a gay sex club in Paris.
The drag superstar said she was "dragged" out of Le Depot for "not being masc presenting enough."
"I'm in shock and disgusted," Chachki wrote, adding a middle finger emoji. "Fuck the French."
Chachki was in Paris for Fashion Week and attending a party at Le Depot. The performer and model also posted a video via Periscope that shows her arguing with staff shortly after being removed from the club.
She later gave an interview with Hornet and went into more details about the incident.
"It was a fashion week party. At a club that has dark rooms downstairs for sex," she said. "I was there seeing 3 friends that were performing/DJ. I wasn't in drag but I had makeup on.
"I met someone there who also had makeup on but was obviously male bodied but very feminine," Chachki went on to say. "We tried to go downstairs to the sexy part when like 4 guys picked us up and dragged us out of the club."
She again took to Twitter Sunday night to comment on the incident, saying she is "over it."
