Of course, none of it bothered her.

During the roast, you were standing up there getting heckled by Loni Love and flipped off by RuPaul.

Not many people can say thats happened to them.

Whats going through your mind at that point?I literally felt like I could die happy.

I did the thing.

The judges mentioned that a few of your jokes came off as mean, rather than funny.

So I was trying to tap into that.

I dont know if it was successful.

I dont want to offend anyone at all, but I did what I could.

It was a stressful challenge.

You did get to go out with one big, final lip-sync performance.

Had you been much of a lip-sync performer before the show?Absolutely, I love lip-syncing.

Its actually one of my favorite, favorite things to do.

Okay, I can do that.

You just want me to have fun?

What was it like to have to go against Symone after you won a challenge together?Literally amazing.

Of course scary, cause shes just so talented.

I dont regret anything.

I feel like I left on a great, great note.

Had you been familiar withB.A.P.S.before?No, Id never seen the movieB.A.P.S.at the time.

You also talked a bit about cultural appropriation with regard to your Bob Ross wig for Snatch Game.

It just popped in my head.

I was like,Oh my God, theyre the same color as his hair.

Each one has their hands together and theyre all praying!

I love that.I think its fun, its unique, its oddly fashionable.

Very kooky, which is definitely what I strive for.

What was filming that like?During that episode, I was pretty down on myself about my commercial.

I think its cause I was told it was bad.

But after seeing it on the big screen, I love it.

I havent laughed out loud at myself so hard before.

I loved it too.

You talk about being from this small town of Utica, and its in your name.

Its a farm town, so its just my immediate family that I will speak to.

But my family has been so wonderful with this whole experience.

I definitely believe thatDrag Racebrings families together, and that is so true with mine.
