SS: As the season progressed, it felt like we began to see the evolution of your shadiness a little bit. I would never want to be offensive or cause any malice. In fact when I went off the cuff during the Roast, I was like “ah, this is what it feels like to be who you are and let the jokes be natural!” I’ve grown to realize that you always have to come from a place of love. I attempted to do my version of a Roast within the lens of trying to be like the other girls. I was trying to fit in with the other girls. I’ve learned that I was trying to fit a mold that was asked of me. I tell myself to breathe and get through it. I freeze up under pressure and when I’m not doing well. Since I always come from a place of love, when you even get an inkling of trying to put insult humor in there, it just ends up a mess.ĭT: I found it interesting when you said were “still learning what’s comedy and what’s offensive.” Why do you think you were still seeking an answer to that question and did the show help you find one? When it comes to insult comedy, you have to get the rhythm and the cadence and you have to come from a place of love.

I remember thinking that my jokes were going to work, and then Loni Love and Michelle Visage were like “your jokes…you should figure out how to tell them better, maybe try not to be as mean?” I was like “oh my god, am I being mean?” and they were like “possibly.” I went into this spiral of “oh my gosh, am I being offensive?” I remember getting really stressed out. Was there ever a moment where you thought you should rethink your strategy, or was it all about doubling down? SS: There’s no doubt that you took some big swings. And then you get the double middle fingers from RuPaul? I think you can be happy. When I went off script, I had some really good zingers in there. You have to do insults and, for me, I find it hard to use scripts and what not. However, it’s still a burnt bag of popcorn. There are definitely some good kernels in there and it’s like a delicious kettle corn.
So, ask one of the nicest people in the cast to do a Roast? It was like a burnt bag of popcorn. I have my Dunkin’ Donuts.ĭT: Say no more.
