Congratulations! Zander Murray is the latest gay celeb to undergo a totally fabulous drag makeover.

As reported by Outsports, Murray, who was the first Scottish senior soccer player to come out as gay in 2022, recently sat down with U.K. drag phenom Cherry West.

In the interview, he talked about coming out and wanting to break stereotypes about LGBTQ+ people. What better way to break stereotypes than to prove that anyone can have fun with a little drag!

Murray seemed a bit nervous at first, but he loosened up as the glam started to come together.

Murray previously expressed his frustrations to PinkNews about the stereotype of gay men being "girly."

"I always get the, 'Oh Zander, you're OK, you're alright, but see all them dressing up in drag and being dead girly? Nah, not having that,' and it's up to me in that position to challenge that," he said. "Doing this collab, it's just shown that I'm part of this community, whether you like it or not."

We like it! Murray was absolutely gorgeous in his look, and he is a shoe-in for the next season of "RuPauls Drag Race." See his totally cute transformation and conversation below.
