Entertainer

In the real world, people go against my beliefs all the time, and I don't make it my place to - like, I'm not super confrontational.

Any time there is an economic downturn or political strife, lipstick sales skyrocket. If you have a hard day, it's this $14 thing that lifts your day. I think drag has that same lipstick effect.

'Drag Race' is sort of like trying to lift weights - like, 50 pounds when you should've been lifting 20.

I'm such a Shangela fan. I think she exemplifies 'Drag Race' greatness. She's like the Tiffany 'New York' Pollard of 'Drag Race.' She's like a patron saint of reality TV.

Katya is literally my flesh and blood. Best friend status.

I'm strange! I have a weird sense of humor! I look crazy!

I'm very business-minded. I think that's something that sets me aside from other drag queens.

Something 'Drag Race' is really good at is portraying us as artists but also human beings. And normal human beings don't know everything. They don't have all the answers.

I plan to publicize my breakups and profit from them like other celebrities.

Bad things can happen to you, but it doesn't mean you have to have regrets. It's all about what you do with it.

Drag is pastiche and parody and satire. Drag queens are never meant to be stars. We make fun of stars. Drag queens are the people that 'point' at the star.

I want to literally quit drag and go live in the woods somewhere and write music for my favorite female singers, like Miley Cyrus or Kacey Musgraves. I would love to be able to write music for them and hear these women I admire sing my songs. That would be like doing drag without having to get into drag myself.

Some people say that 'Drag Race' is about glory and immortalizing yourself in the Hall of Fame. For me, it's about shaking RuPaul down for her money.

Me myself, Brian, I'm a Midwesterner at heart, and I have this deep, bone-dry sense of humor, and I've found it worked to combine this Barbie with a dry, sarcastic man.

Whatever is underneath all the drag, it actually doesn't really matter. It kind of just matters, are you a great entertainer? And are you nice to work with? Are you good at your job?

That's something I like about drag - I get to do everything. Collaborative arts are hard for me because I don't really like to relinquish control.

My look and my character come from my experiences as a child. I wasn't allowed to have girl toys, and I grew up poor. I also had a rough relationship with my stepdad.

June Carter Cash is probably my all-time favorite member of the Carter Family.

Mental health and sobriety is not a straight line, and 'Drag Race' is a family, and we support our family members through anything.

I look like Forrest Gump.
