Laverne Cox and Dylan Mulvaney

Actress Laverne Cox has offered some sterling advice to Dylan Mulvaney while on the red carpet at the 65th Grammy awards.

Mulvaney, who gained popularity on TikTok with her series ‘Day X of Being a Girl’, in which she talks her 10.6 million followers through the challenges of being a trans individual, has lived much of her transition in the public eye.

Recently, she shared the results of her facial feminisation surgery with the world; and that became the topic of discussion when she came face to face with Cox on the red carpet at the Grammy awards.

After approaching telling Cox and telling her that she was on her 2023 vision board, Dylan received some motherly advice from the trans icon.

“It’s insane that you’re documenting so much of your life,” the Orange Is The New Black star remarked after saying how “lovely” it was that she was on Mulvaney’s vision board.

“Make sure you keep things for yourself. Everything cannot be for the public. They love it, but everything cannot be for them.”
