A Very Ultra Summer With... AJ Clementine

Hello angels. In our last installment of our #VeryUltra summer (we're heartbroken too), we’re thrilled to be talking to Tik Tok sensation—830,000 followers and counting—and trans activist AJ Clementine. AJ began her career on Youtube, offering a raw and vulnerable depiction of her own experiencing transitioning. Now, she's one of the most formidable emerging forces in the Australian media, working with the country's biggest fashion and beauty brands, including being the first trans model to front an underwear campaign for Bonds. We talk to AJ about the pitfalls of having such a prolific online presence, what it's like to have the internet obsess over your relationship, how important it is to have healthy depictions of transness in pop culture, among many other things. We truly could not think of a more Ultra moment to leave our series on—we can't wait for you to listen, and please rate, review, and subscribe.
