Laverne Cox – Orange Is the New Black
Fans of the Netflix show Orange is the New Black are familiar with actress and activist Laverne Cox, who played the role of Sophia Burset. She was so popular on that show that she even won an Emmy for it and also became the first transgender celeb to have her wax figure at Madame Tussauds.
Being an icon in the transgender and black community, Cox fully understands her responsibilities and duties, and always advocates for being our true self, irrespective of what others think of us. For this reason, she shared a makeup-free and wig-free selfie with great pride.
