Why should I? A million girls — literally, because there’s a million girls in the franchise — could have got an opportunity to come back, but they called me.
AS6 includes a couple of queens who are back, back, back yet again, even more that have spent years campaigning to get on for years now and one or two of the franchise’s most polarizing personalities.
Kylie Sonique Love: Initially, I was really hoping to get a call for season 5, but I’m so grateful that I didn’t.
I don’t think I’m one of those girls who could be like, “Oh, just call me next year.” And I’m happy I did it because it was just needed and necessary.
I think a lot of people might have some criticism of me going back so quickly after my season, but I’m like, “Look at Monét.
And once I got the call and hung up the phone, I was like, “Oh my god, what did I just do? Am I ready?” Ready or not, here we come.
I feel like the first time it was cut short, and sometimes there’s nothing you can do about that and it’s totally fine.
Like Jan said, you don’t get this opportunity all the time, and I’m one of those people that I just go for stuff.
This time around, people are going to get to meet not just Jiggly again, but they’re going to meet Bianca, who’s the driving force of the Megazord that is Jiggly.
And all these years later — half a decade later — I know who I am, and I know what my drag is and I have a very specific point of view that I want to share with the world.
And when I got the call this time, there was something telling me, “You’re ready to do it.
Ginger: I expected something because with All Stars, as I learned on day one of All Stars 2, it’s an ever-changing game.
Eureka!: Honestly, that’s tea.
That what we’ve come to expect from All Stars is that we don’t know what to expect.
Eureka!: That is the drama, really, when you get to the nuts and bolts of it all.
And hopefully everybody knows that about themselves and is excited to go on this journey that we’re not really even sure what it’s going to be yet.
And everybody is so hungry for that crown.” So, we knew from day one, that it was not going to be an easy fight.
Pandora: Because it’s been so long since I had done the show, it was very surreal to walk back into the room.
Scarlet: I think that’s what drag queens should be.
Yes to all of the above.
When you’re early in your transition, you’re still trying to navigate who you are and at that time in Drag Race, it was not that I wasn’t allowed to compete as who I was because those questions were asked because they knew.
I think that’s what’s so important about being able to express yourself the way that makes you feel the most authentic is you are able to see how bright you really can shine without the insecurities of what other people put on us.
I feel like she left that door open for the rest of us to come in, and I think it was really beautiful to be able to compete next to Kylie.
I feel whole and I feel like I’m truly showing the world who I am — the person that is the heart and mind of the entity that is Jiggly Caliente — and it feels amazing.
