LUCKY STARZZZ:Yes, she wants me to!
As youll remember from our group interview, there was a lot of talk of hookups this season.
How did you feel about Arrietty saying that in the confessional, and did anything happen between you two?

Lucky Starzzz’s lip-sync against Joella on ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ season 17.MTV
I think it was so funny and cute.
I love weird little metaphors, so I understood.
I was feeling her.

We did like each other.
I thought she was charming.
She’s my closest friend from the cast after the show, Ill say that.
I want to leave it a bit of a mystery.
Were there any art classes after the show?
Maybe one day well do makeup on each other.
But there are no painting lessons for now.
Everybody is in their own painting studio.
Its too much painting, girl.
The brushes are going to get really messed up.
On that note, what’s the tea on Kori and Lydia?
Listen, they have a whole art studio together.
They are painting the house down.
I see the paint splatters everywhere when I walk by.
I smell the paint splatters.
Yeah, theyre painting.
What did you mean by that?
But, Hormona definitely ruffled some feathers.
I lived for Hormona, she was so sweet to me and one of my best friends while filming.
She got me mad one time, but it was little, petty stuff.
What did she do?
It was just a little comment she made while I was struggling, thats it.
But, she did help me.
It was just a weird situation that pissed me off.
I was spiraling, I was going through it, I thought she made it worse with the comment.
What do you remember about that?
That happened all off-camera, the day of.
I was spiraling already, and then I see Lexi talking to Hormona about some stones!
It was so crazy.
It was a crazy little morning.
I wish it was captured on camera, because it was a cute little fight.
I was her sort-of drag daughter.
I always saw her as my drag mom and mentor, but things changed when I got cast.
Weve had our ups and down.
When I auditioned, we werent talking.
She was a support system when we started talking again.
It was just a bunch of weird, petty, dumb stuff.
I didnt have time for that.
I went, filmed, came back, I called her again, but I got so busy.
Eventually, she unfollowed me, it was like a whole mess that didnt have to be so messy.
I spoke to her like, three days ago, actually, after months of not talking.
I just want to be cordial.
Were cordial, I think.
I dont mind, though, Im not sitting here sobbing about it.It is what it is!
I still have a lot of respect for her and respect for her art.
Im always going to be a fan.
But, I dont know, drag daughter/mother?
I consider myself to be her drag abortion.
I say that in a fun way!
I hope that relationship continues to grow.
Hormona and Lexi tried to help, but you broke down in the room.
Why did you have such a strong reaction?
I felt like I was cornered into the wall, with all that was going on.
First of all, I dont sew.
I dont work with fabric.
I dont work with cloth.
Thats not my thing.
Im a crafty person, I hope people understand the difference.
I craft things, I create characters, I create worlds with my drag.
But, I dont sew gowns, I dont sew dresses.
I will create a dress somehow myway.
During critiques, it looked like you were physically uncomfortable wearing something like that.
Why did you have such an uncomfortable reaction?
I honestly felt so ugly.
I know how drag queens are.
I know queens all over the world are going to read me.
What did I do here?
Imagine having a panic attack in public, in front of RuPaul.
Thats how I felt.
You are not a failure.
You showed so many great looks during press week, interviews, and on the premiere episode.
Support myInstagram, support myFacebook, myX, my OnlyFans… just kidding, I dont have OnlyFans.
[Laughs] Im joking.
Look at my dates on my page, keep yourself updated with me.
