When it comes to beloved queens from RuPaul’s Drag Race, one word that comes to mind easily is Katya. Katya was one of the breakout stars of season seven for so many different reasons, in particular her hilarious personality, comic timing, great fashion, and openness about her troubled past. It made the choice for Miss Congeniality that season a no brainer, to the point where there was even a fake out at the finale for her to win over the real winner, Violet Chachki.

Last Call for Summer Skin! The Last Lazy Days in Manhattan!
Summer is winding down, but the last rays of sun are still upon us. The recent weather may have drenched us literally and figuratively with rain and humidity but that doesn’t mean there aren’t still sunny days left before we tuck them away for Fall.

Exclusive With RuPaul’s Drag Race All Star Alaska Thunderfuck!
“Hiiiiiiiii!!!” was the first word that we heard out of RuPaul’s Drag Race legend Alaska Thunderfuck 5000 when she entered the werk room on Season 5 of the best and biggest reality show on television over the past ten years. Since her triumphant entrance, she took that season by storm, making it all the way to the final three, despite a lot of pressure and odds against her, and narrowly lost to Jinkx Monsoon. In this case, just as in many cases for RPDR, losing the crown doesn’t mean you lose in life. And Alaska is the farthest thing from that, as she has arose to become a huge force in the drag industry and one of the most beloved cast members the show has ever seen.
