“When I walked in on 'Drag Race' and saw Katya, I had no idea she was gonna be funny, because she was stunning. She had this perfect red lip, I remember looking into her eyes and being like, 'This is a woman!' Then she was really funny. She kind of presents normal, and it's a one-two punch with the comedy.”

“As drag queens and as comic people, we listen to our own artistic compass all the time.”

“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.”

“What I love that has happened for years now with 'Drag Race' is the queens can go on to have any kind of career.”

“For me, drag is not about being a woman - or being anything, specifically.”

“For me, I went into 'Drag Race' wanting to further catapult my career, to travel around the world, and perform for all my fans.”
