“Everyone says as you get older, it gets better. It’s the truth,” Billy later expressed about turning 50. “I’m experiencing a type of success that I didn’t even know how to dream of. It’s really really remarkable, and the best part about it is that once you get to a certain age, you give zero [bleep] about anything.”

That same night, Billy rocked a wig and had himself a Marvelous 50th Birthday Party at a private residence, hosted by Ketel One Family Made Vodka, in Los Angeles.

Billy was accompanied by his husband Adam Smith, Ricky Martin, Queer Eye‘s Tan France, Miss J Alexander, EJ Johnson, Shaun Ross, Deborah Cox, Padma Lakshmi, Trace Lysette, DJ Lina and Shoshana Bean, who surprised Billy with a special performance.
