Drag Race' has given many super-talented people 15 minutes of fame... Many don't strike while the iron's hot though and are only really seen again sitting at finales or reunions for the show.

I know you are not a woman if you are voting for Mitt Romney. Because no woman in her right mind would vote for a man that opposes a woman's right to get a clean abortion or a safe abortion.
Each generation gets more accepting which is great.
Creating content and never being afraid to try something new have been my two hallmarks.
Listen - by the time I'm 40, I'm either gonna be super famous or dead.
My favorite must have beauty product is a good, reliable black eye pencil.
I'm in a band, I sing live.
My grandma spelled my name wrong until she died. Like literally, birthday cards, mail, everything.
My opinion is not valuable to the general public.
I like meeting people, cause they tell me I'm pretty, and I just have to say thank you a lot.
I never went to college.
I'm not complaining at all but 'A Star Is Born' hasn't helped my career in like, opportunity terms.
I have nothing but respect for RuPaul, but it's impossible for me to be happy working with people who don't treat others the way they want to be treated.
I love San Francisco!
One of the most flattering things is when other people are seeing what you're doing and then replicating that kind of thing.
If you don't get something, don't spend your time wallowing. Just move on and then speak up for the next thing, and hope that you're involved in that.
I think finding a way to relate material to yourself can be useful to some people but acting for me is just being really good at make-pretend and lying. I've always been a great liar.
The videos I put on YouTube have expanded my audience beyond what I could have done at just a Hamburger Mary's. People saw the videos, started booking me, and literally 40-plus countries and thousands of gigs later I can basically say that YouTube has bought me a house.
I can ruin my own career, but I will not ruin anyone elses' career with my mouth.
A Star Is Born' was everything. Gaga and Bradley, and having people you look up to laugh at your jokes, felt really good.
I don't know how to do anything else and lack any skill that would be applicable on a resume. Drag is what I know. The gigs are my life.
The hardest skill to master was finding the right lash for my eye. Eyes are the windows to the soul, and some windows need blinds instead of curtains.
I think a cream blush placed under foundation works the best. That way it shows through the skin the way your face does when it naturally blushes.
The next RuPaul is an actor, a singer, a personality, not someone who can just get up at a bar. So I'm looking to do all those things.
What other people think of me isn't any of my business but it's nice when people say nice things.
I'm from the North. We didn't have Chick-fil-A.
I was an awful child. And now I'm an awful adult.
Rocky Horror Picture Show' was my gateway drag/drug. I was somewhere between 13 and 16 when I started going to that.
If you put drag in front of anything, it inherently makes it more fun. So mashing up films with cult followings with drag queens is a natural fit for a good time.
I'm just taking it one day at a time. Actually, one night at a time. I'm not usually up during the day.
I just want to be like a little bit of Bluto from 'Animal House,' mixed with like some amazing diva like RuPaul.
My parents let me get my outfit in the gayest place possible, the 'International Male Catalog.' They sold mostly speedos and thongs and clubwear, and I was like, I'm getting that sheer shirt with the dragon on it, and then those vinyl patent leather pants and the cheetah platform boots.
Always tip a drag queen. If they're good, they deserve it. And if they're bad, at least they'll go away after that buck.
A kiki is any type of social function that's cute at which at no less than 2 but not more than 10 drag queens are in a room together. It's super fun.
My signature scent is naivete.
I like Pride festival because we get to show up and show out. Remind people we have resilience and rainbows.
Vanity from Wigs By Vanity have the best wigs in the business.
I just do my own thing, and my flower continues to blossom like one of those delicious Bloomin' Onions from Outback Steakhouse.
People are so concerned with what they put in their bodies but so few know what they're putting on their skin. I like to use preservative-free, cruelty-free makeup that hasn't been tested on animals.
Contouring in the wrong hands turns into clownturing. I like to build it into my concealer base using cream colours and then put my foundation on over it.
I mean, I find drama to be engaging and it makes your blood pressure go up and you keep watching, but it's not as entertaining as, say, comedy.
I am no one's role model.
I'm a drag queen. I want colors that get attention. The world does not need another palette with eight tans and a blue.
I had a drag mom but she didn't really teach me about makeup. She just basically stuck me into gigs. And then I borrowed clothes from her and her drag to play the gigs.
And who wouldn't want to date Jonathan Bennett, right?
My priority is my happiness.
If I die tomorrow I could die happy, because this feels like possibly the biggest thing I'll ever do in my career, and I'm fine with that. I get to be in a movie with Gaga.
I'm trying to take drag back to its down-and-dirty roots where people get offended at first, and then they're like, 'Oh my God, this crazy queen.'
Showing up is like 90 percent of the battle, and just make sure your hair is really cute.
I love Issa Rae from 'Insecure.'
