Love is a universal, attractive element. And other than death, love is the one thing that binds all of humanity.
Jason Voorhees was a kid who was picked on at summer camp, and Michael Myers was someone vilified by his own family. I think that's why gay people like horror movies, because it's seeking revenge on the privileged.
I love taxidermy. I collect taxidermy. I'm fascinated by the art of taxidermy. But on a more artistic level, I look at taxidermy as pulling something from the wild and taming it, and posing it in a style of your own personal pleasure that will last forever, and ever, and ever.
Love is the one thing everyone is looking for, and death is the one thing everyone's running from.
I don't socialize in drag anymore. If I'm in drag, I'm usually onstage or in the dressing room or in a car service.
When your hobby becomes a full-time job that pays you and the people around you, it's not fun anymore.
I don't care how many times I play 'Angry Birds.' When you have the world's cares on your shoulders and you fling those little birds at those rotten pigs, then the whole world just melts away.
The great thing about being a woman is the power of reinvention.
The secret to a great Halloween costume, and I can't stress this enough, is in my opinion is to extract sexuality out of your costume.
Drag culture has always been about excess.
I remember when I wore UFO raver jeans in the 90s. Or my JNCOs! I miss my JNCOs.
My mom let me play in her clothes, wear makeup, and I had high heels from a thrift store. My mom tells me that the only reason she let me dress in her clothes is because she couldn't afford any toys, and it seemed entertaining enough and kept her from having to buy me anything, 'cause everything I wanted was in her makeup box or wardrobe.
I've always said that punk is a time and money thing. You can only be punk if you're poor and you're young. It's for the poor, it's for the young.
My house is a mixture of mid-century 'Brady Bunch' and the Addams family, so it's not uncommon to find vials of blood in my house.
After I went on 'Drag Race,' I was allowed to do so many things. I was allowed to do theater, commercial work, television work, modeling, fashion design, and it was great. But the thing with reality television fame is that it's got a pretty quick expiration date.
I'm kind of a hokey-jokey, campy idiot in black lipstick, but when it comes to my music, I take it very seriously.
Not to be rude to my sisters, but I don't listen to drag music. I listen to everything from punk to Italo disco to Appalachian country music, but I don't know what their records sound like. I hardly listen to my own records. I'm like Cher!
