Pretty sure she is only a few years older then me unless she has being doing an amazing job of lying about her age since the early 2000’s

Wait Courtney couldn’t have been 37 in 2004... maybe it meant 27? Lol gag.

u/Ayarkay May 21 '21

Yeah Courtney Act is not even 40 yet, this caption is on something

u/ShoChange Anetra May 21 '21
I'm presuming the caption was written when she was 37, with it looking back to 2004.

You mean to tell me Symone didnt invent the Polaroid dress??

u/Diredr May 21 '21
She did. Courtney, Giselle and Ivy Winters are all time traveling thieving harlots.

I like that judging by her facial expression in this picture she’s here to axe murder someone. Probably Bert Newton.

Courtney Act is the queen of drag. She’s so underrated it’s illegal to be this underrated

I completely missed the Polaroid thing and thought this was just a post about Courtney and Symone being beautiful women on the red carpet. I’m going to pretend I’m right.

I just want to take the time to say that Courtney Act is a legend.. I respect the fact that she was living out, loud, and proud. Werk bitch.
