I need to feel like I'm part of something. I need to feel part of the world when I go to sleep.

when I moved to Canada in '93, I started reading fashion magazines, and that's where I spotted the M.A.C ad that RuPaul were in. That's sort of how I first "met" you - in the red bodysuit. That was so iconic to me.

I miss All Stars, by the way. I was just telling people: how am I going to get by until January?

When I was growing up, you sort of did the unthinkable. You did something that has never really been replicated.

I realized the importance of archiving. So I save key pieces from my collections, as well as any red-carpet things that become iconic. I always ask for that stuff back. I'm like, "It's going in my archives."

I hope I am the antithesis of disposable fashion.

I would love to take an old space and restore it to exactly the way I want it. Like an old factory, just something with great bones and lots of character. I'd take an old house and flip it into something very modern inside, or the other way around.
