“My drag references span much further than RuPaul’s Drag Race – not to discredit the show by any means. I think a lot of my drag is knowing what’s come before me, whether that’s drag or fashion, and just really reinterpreting that. I know things that people don’t expect some 22- year-old to know. I went into the werk room saying all these things, and trying to tell people that I knew what I was talking about and no one believed me! I got to show them and prove to them that I do.” – Aquaria for Gay Times, On her creative inspirations.
