""Last year I went on my first ever break from drag. I was coming out of the worst depression of my life, coming out of a crisis of: 'What am I doing with my life? Do I even like drag?'""
""All summer, last summer, I was so off the grid... All I did was chill. And it was so creatively fulfilling. And I realised you have to refill the bucket!""
""If you're an artist, do not disrespect the gift of being an artist, by wearing those tires down until they're bald.""
""No-one needs to be cross-dressing in August.""
