Hello lovely, how's dragon been so far?
Drag Con has been great. Everyone’s so friendly here. Americans are horrible.
So you prefer it over here?
I do but we all know that! So yeah.
What’s the concept behind your booth this year?
We're doing little Hunger Games, Season 13, Tina Burner on fire. The Hunger Games. It kind of ended up looking like Hogwarts. Very erm... Hufflepuff? One of them, I don’t really know the houses.
Ah you should!
Who is, Hufflepuff. Slytherin...
Griffindor, Ravenclaw.
Griffindor! it's very Gryffindor, very red and gold.
So are you going to sacrifice some fans then? They're gonna come in, fight for the meet and greet. Whoever surives that’s who gets it.
That would be great. I think if I survive, I get the meet and greet.
What do you hope 2023 brings you?
All Stars!
Called it!
No, what I hope 2023 brings is... I don't know more travel I love to travel. I mean, I never stop. I just haven't been in New York much, but I'm enjoying. Like going everywhere else. I wanna come over here more one so there we go. That's where I want to be.
I'm gonna ask you a few little questions about keep it or burn it.
Love it!
First one, drunk hen do parties at drag shows?
Keep it, keep it because I find it amusing, it's for my entertainment actually.
Netflix stopping you from sharing passwords?
Burn it!
It's annoying isn’t it.
Kind of annoying, yeah. I steal everybody's, I share everything, even WOW Presents Plus.
No passwords sharing on there! We all have accounts… People who say if you're not wearing heels, you're not doing drag.
I'm wearing slides right now.
It’s okay they can’t see it...
You know what I mean? It’s hard, I still wear my heels after really long days when I see someone in flats and I know can wear heels. I think if you can wear heels, you should be wearing heels. If you can't wear them for some reason. Then don't wear them but I want to see a doctors note!
Before you sign it off.
I want to see it all.
Thank you so much my love, enjoy the rest of your Drag Con.
You as well.
Take care!
