Milk:

Q: What is it like being at NYC DragCon?

A: It’s amazing.  This is my hometown.  It was weird getting into drag to come to the Javits Center.  But, I love the glass ceilings here.  They are ready to be busted.  But it is sad knowing that Hillary was here when she lost the election.  I don’t know if you’re a democrat like me, but DragCon is really livening up this place again.

Q: What is it like to meet all your fans here in NYC?

A: Well, all of these people are from all over the country.  It is insane.  The draw that this has is absolutely wild and amazing.  The fandom of Drag Race is so talented and exciting and the fact that they are the future generation is pretty damn cool.

Q: If you could lip sync against any queen and to any song, who would you lip sync against and to what song?

A: It would be a Barbra Streisand song.  And I would do it against Tammie Brown.  Tammie Brown, Barbra Streisand, I think it would be weird and a MOMA piece.

Q: You could hang it up in the Louvre too.

A: Exactly, right next to the Mona Lisa.

Q: What’s the weirdest experience you have had with fans?

A: I think just when fans don’t come up to me to say hi, they just take a creepy, stealthy picture of me sitting on the subway and then tweet it saying ‘oh, I was just too afraid to go up to say hi to Milk,’ and it was just a picture of me picking my nose.

Q: So All Stars 3 and Season 10 have been confirmed, so what are you excited for about it?

A: I am just excited to see Drag Race.  Drag Race is my favorite show ever, even though it causes me, like on Season 6, so much stress.  It is my favorite show ever.  And to just see drag queens know that they are coming back to TV and shared across the globe is so rad.

Q: Even watching it is stressful like you’re sitting there biting your nails

A: I think people are starting to realize how hard drag is.  Like season after season and seeing the shit that we have to do is pretty cool.

Q: If you could be a part of any challenge or create your own challenge, what challenge would that be?

A: I think the challenge that I wish I could’ve done is from season 9, the cheerleading challenge.  That looked like so much fun.

Q: Except it destroyed Charlie.

A: Did it?  I heard she had diarrhea.

Q: I heard she hurt her body but then I heard she was purposefully trying to feign masturbation in that lip sync.

A: Oh my god.  But, yeah, I think that would be a fun challenge.
