As Texas slowly turned up the heat on trans youth and their families over the past year, Violet didn’t want to be the frog trapped in the pot of boiling water. “The frog doesn’t realize it until it’s getting cooked,” she says. “We could see where things were going and we thought, ‘We really need to not wait until it’s too late.’” Violet, whose name has been changed because she fears potential prosecution from her former home state, is the parent of two transgender children. Last year, she decided it was time to leave Texas after Gov. Greg Abbott signed a law banning trans students from playing on sports teams that align with their gender identity. Things only got worse from there. In February, Abbott issued an order directing the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to conduct “investigations of any reported instances of Texas children being subjected to abusive gender-transitioning procedures,” according to his office .

There's no denying that it's not easy for any actor/actress from 'outside' to sustain inside the film industry without struggling. In her recent tete-a-tete with a leading daily, when actress Esha Gupta was asked if she feels she has succeeded in carving a niche for herself, she said that she wants to believe, she has been successful in life. When asked to share her take on the struggles of outsiders, she told ETimes, "As someone who's not from the industry, what I can speak for outsiders is that you don't get a shoulder to cry on.

TMZ.com One thing ya know about Wendy Williams , she doesn't tiptoe around anything ... which is why she told us -- as only Wendy could -- about her ongoing medical struggles, and starting her new career.
