Charlize Theron is an ally to the drag queen community and is happy to have words with anyone who isn't.

The South African actor recently made a virtual appearance among friends for a Drag Isn't Dangerous telethon to voice her support for the drag community.

"We love you, queens. We're in your corner, and we've got you. And I will fuck anybody up who's trying to fuck with anything with you guys," Theron says in a video tweeted by the fan account Charlize Theron Daily.

Theron asked viewers to "please support all the great organisations that are out there helping all of this nonsense go away like it should".

She added: "All of these incredibly stupid policies. Bye," before concluding, "No more room for hate, only love, and love equals drag queens!"

The Oscar-winner's comments come amid a state of unrest for the drag community in the US, where Tennessee recently became the first state to pass legislation restricting drag shows.
