Why won't you date me?
Why won't you date me?
Why won't you date me?
Please tell me why!
Baby, welcome to another episode of Why Won't You Date Me?
A podcast where me, Nicole Byer, tries to figure out how I'm still single,
even though you could slap my pussy and say,
Ew, I hate it.
My guest today is a drag queen, comedian, actor, and costume designer.
She was crowned winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 6.
You better believe it's fucking
Bianca Del Rio. Hello, how are you? I am fabulous. Bianca, thank you so much for taking the time to
do this. You have a show tonight, a show. Well, this is airing in January. We are recording this
in November. Let's keep it real with the children.
You're a busy fucking lady.
But you know what?
Listen, I say this.
You have to get out and hustle.
And the biggest hustle is I can't complain.
I've been home for a year and a half with this pandemic bullshit.
So as soon as they said, let's get on the road, I packed my drag and said, fuck it.
Let's go and let's make it happen.
So I've been fortunate enough to start the tour in September
and it lasted until November in America.
And I think it was something like 68 dates.
And now we are, or 68 days.
And I can't remember how many shows it was in between there.
And, you know, then I'm going into a musical in Los Angeles
that will be here in January.
Wait, what is this musical?
Well, I was doing this musical. I did it like two and a half years ago called
Everybody's Talking About Jamie on the West End.
And I had two stints in it.
I did an eight-week run and I enjoyed it so much
I went back and did a three-week run on the West End
and then they offered me the tour, which
I'm doing, actually, leaving
on Thursday for,
to tour the UK and then we have a five-week
sit-down here in Los Angeles
at the Amundsen Theater.
So I'm quite excited.
My God, she's fucking busy.
Well, you know what?
The thing is, you don't get in drag to not hustle.
You know, these bitches that put on a wig
and sit home and complain.
And you know what it's like.
You've got 42 shows going on.
You've got to take it while it's in front of you.
I mean, you're right.
Because I'm always like, what if people stop wanting it?
I better fucking do everything now.
Exactly.
And also, if you're enjoying it.
I enjoy a busy schedule.
I like a tight schedule.
I don't want anybody to feel sorry for me.
I'm grateful for the opportunities.
But, you know, the day-to-day back and forth, especially being on the road, you know, and schlepping from one city to the next by bus is not the most glamorous but it's better than going on an airplane it's better going through
security so you can hit more dates and do more cities by being on the bus so you know you pick
your battles with this and so i've been very lucky you know okay so this bus yeah are there there's
beds obviously on this i've never been on a tour bus the only tour bus i like know of is selena's
tour bus in the movie selena okay well i would say what's great about it is there's about 12
bunks that exist for everyone else but in the very back i have my own room which is fancy
so you get your it's you know you set your air condition in your little cabin uh which is lovely
back there and what's great is you know you know it works. You kind of get to the city around noon.
You get into the venue.
You set up all of your shit.
You get into drag.
I have a meet and greet at 5.30 that I hug 150 people before the show.
And then they open the doors at 7.
Everyone then sits down.
The show starts at 8.
You finish the show by 11.
You get out of drag.
You put on your pajamas.
You get back on the bus.
You pass out with Mexican Xanax. and you wake up in the next city so that's the magic of the bus you know what i mean
that's the magic wait a minute i cannot believe you do a meet and greet before the show yes i do
i do that well mainly because this is this is my system and if you if you experience this you'll
understand why is that first of all, in drag, I look
fresher at 5.30 than I
would after the show. And also,
people are still scared of me then. They're not
wasted yet. They're not drunk yet.
They're still a little fearful.
And usually, the 150
to 200 people that come through meet and greet
are the people that are in the first
20 rows. So even if the whole
show goes to shit,
I know I've got those 20 rows that I've met that I can use as part of the show. You know,
whether I know who's the crazy one, I know who's the angry one. I know who's the couple.
I know who brought their child. So all of that works to my advantage because that's usually all
I see is the first 20 rows. So it's a win-win. This strategery. It's also like this great warmup act. You know,
you get to see the people that really like you, you get some time to spend with them.
And you know, after the show, you're a sweaty mess. They're going to be drunk. Then, you know,
you're waiting to get out of drag, your feet are hurting. So they catch me at a better time. And
then when I'm done with the show, I'm out of that shit and on the bus. So it's a win-win for me.
This I love. Quick question.
Do you wear heels while you perform?
Yes.
I'm not lazy.
Yes.
I mean, what am I going to wear?
Some orthopedic drag shoe?
I would be in Crocs under the gown.
Let's get real.
I would not.
I can't wear heels.
I couldn't get it.
What's the deal here?
I mean, I think, I guess with drag, it's just the i couldn't get it you know what's the deal here like i mean
i think i guess with drag it's just the way that it starts you know is that you are the big deal
is you get your heels you get your corset you get your wig and i that's always been a huge part of
it and so i'm short i'm i think i'm like five eight i'm short by drag standards uh some of the
ones you know are monsters yes huge i'm about a five eight so a heel helps you know and then i
get a big enough wig
to kind of balance it out.
But I don't feel complete
unless I have heels on and earrings.
Those are my two things.
A wig is for me.
I don't like performing without a wig.
Well, that too.
I'm wigless today
because she's in the home.
But yeah, I don't feel complete
unless I'm like,
the wig is on,
the lashes are on, and she's here to do it
you know and it's also interesting to me how
I've seen queens it's the earrings that
kill me because they spend so much time on their face
they have a wig and they have
you know nails on and bracelets on
a necklace and I go why stop with
no earrings nobody is pretty enough
not to have a fucking earring on
every time I will text a bitch.
If I see them on Instagram, I text them, where's your earrings?
Where's your earrings?
I fucking love that.
I'd love to think there's a queen out there who's like getting ready, looks in the mirror one last time.
They're like, Bianca's going to get me.
I got to put on some earrings.
I got to put on some earrings.
You need to, bitch.
Nobody is pretty enough not to have them.
I'm telling you.
This is a boring question but how
did you get into drag i know that you were a costumer yeah it well it started kind of um
through costumes is that when i started you know acting so to speak uh but there was a show this
is brilliant musical called a pageant that they were doing and i was costuming the show and doing
wigs and makeup for the show and they needed somebody to play an extra part a show um and it was this weird part that covered a costume change so i kind of went into the show and doing wigs and makeup for the show. They needed somebody to play an extra part of the show. And it was this weird part
that covered a costume change. So I
kind of went into the show just thinking I was gonna
fill in. And then it kind of snowballed
into 26 years
now. Well, January. It'll be 26 years of doing
drag. So it's this crazy
ride
that I didn't plan or didn't think
would happen, but it definitely started through
theater, which is the way to go, you know?
26 years?
I know, I'm old.
She's older than she looks.
Well, I got a good doctor, yeah.
I mean, give me the fucking number.
Your skin is incredible.
I'll hook you up.
No, the thing was, you know, I don't think it was ever,
you know, back then, drag was,
you couldn't find it anywhere.
It was either in a gay bar
or a small cabaret space or theater, you know back then drag was you couldn't find it anywhere it was either in a gay bar or a small
cabaret space or theater you know um so it wasn't as celebrated as it was now we didn't have social
media obviously or drag race or you know there was rue on television with her vh1 talk show at
the time and stuff but that was probably the biggest untouchable moment you're like oh i'll
never get there that's never gonna happen for me Those opportunities don't exist. I mean, I was doing drag when the gays didn't even like drag.
You know what I mean? Like, you know, the fags at the bar were too butch for drag queens. So
that was a different number. There were bars I couldn't get into if I was in drag because they
were men's. Yeah, there were men's bars. Yeah. We're all about men here. We're not going to
have you in drag. And now those same faggots are just running out of the bar to get a
fucking selfie.
So,
you know,
that's our community.
I think,
I just think it's so weird to be like,
I mean,
I guess it happens with like black people too.
When you're like an other in society to like other,
the others,
others.
Yes.
Like,
yes.
Be like,
okay,
so we're, you know, the other group, but then there's like a be like okay so we're you know the other group but
then there's like a weird set of others that we don't fuck with yes just like why why are we all
why do that it's truly insane well you know the gays are the worst but that's usually how they
operate i mean it's usually it's the game is that we want acceptance but you can't come in
and that's what it was that's what it was. That's what it was early on. It was very segregated on that level. And, you know, lots of people weren't interested in drag queens. I
mean, because if you did drag, it's too feminine and we're not interested in dating you. But now
it's changed the game, you know, with drag race. And also people never saw us out of drag. No one
really cared, you know? So now that drag is in people's living rooms and they see you as a person
or see you as an actor or see you as a performer, it's a different game, you know?
Yes. Bianca, let me ask.
Yes.
Are you single? Are you in a relationship?
I am single.
Okay.
I had two long-term relationships that were, you know, choices I had made prior to Drag Race.
Okay.
The ones I had after
Drag Race have not turned out so well. And, you know, it's that weird thing now where I'm 46 and
everybody's younger than me as it is. So it's a weird dynamic because you want to meet somebody
that's aware of what you do for a living, but you also don't want to date a fan. So it is that weird
place. And where do you meet people you know it's like like friends of
mine are always saying you need a doctor that you know yeah i can't even get in a fucking appointment
with my insurance how the fuck am i gonna get to date a doctor if i can't even get seen by one
so i was trying to do uh a matchmaker and i filled out this whole thing and then two years later
they were like hey nicole are you still interested and i was like no
no two years past you're not even gonna acknowledge that the two years passed you're just like
hey yeah you've been waiting for this and i'm like yeah i've been waiting but not for you goodbye
no it just seems so it also just seems so weird to me i don't know even like the grinder situation i
i was like, okay,
well, let me see what the kids are doing on Grindr, you know, if this is going to work.
But then I was reported for not being me. Someone didn't believe that it was me that they thought.
And I'm like, well, then that's just too much bullshit. So it's one more thing to scroll
through. And, you know, I find, and I'm a firm believer, I don't know if this is you, Nicole,
but I think, I believe you can't have it all.
You know what I mean? So I'm a firm believer with, you know, I'm best when I'm single because I'm
focusing on what I can control, which is, you know, my career and my schedule and my life.
That if I get somebody in there, I get too wrapped up. See, I'm the giver. And then I start,
you know, making sure some bitch is okay. And I'm daddy Warbucks. And you know, little Annie
ain't worth it. She's still a little bitch. So i've had to come to terms with that i had to come to terms
with that but maybe maybe it's not for me you know what i mean i can go be a hoe but i don't need to
be attached you know interesting yeah i don't so the thing i worry about is if I were to be in a relationship and I was happy, I'm like, what would I talk about on stage?
Agreed.
How do you make happiness funny?
No, in exact happiness is not funny.
And also, some of us are not meant to be happy.
That's what gives us the gift of being.
No, I'm serious.
I mean, being a miserable cunt is a gift, I do believe.
At least we're using the proper outlet. You know, we're not that miserable cunt that's sitting in a cubicle. We're a miserable cunt on radio or on television.
On TV, on the stage, being like, we're all miserable, right? And everyone's like, yes, I spent money to hear you be miserable.
Here you be miserable.
Agreed.
Agreed.
So I think that's what's important.
I think at least we have something, you know?
It's better than not.
It's better than the alternative. And to be honest, you know, with gay relationships in particular, especially with social media, I know several people, I'm not going to name names, but on social media that will post a happy photo of a queen with a little boyfriend and they're eating a cupcake and they're just
happy as can be. And I know good and goddamn well that they're fucking other people and they're
lying to each other. So it's really hard to, I guess, find that genuine aspect of it. I don't
believe any relationship I see because I can read between the lines. So I don't know if someone
would bring me happiness. I wouldn't mind somebody coming along to enjoy the ride because I get some amazing experiences.
But it's been very difficult finding that person.
It really has.
Yeah.
I don't know where that person lies.
Like, who's just like easy breezy, easy to be around, happy for you at all times, fucks you, takes you out to dinner. Yeah. Isn't annoying.
Is happy with you going out of town for weeks at a time.
Yeah.
Chill with your success.
Has their own shit going.
Like,
where is that person?
It's never the person I attract.
I can tell you that.
It's never.
And that's, that's been the crazy thing.
And,
and if you ask somebody of that,
or,
or if you,
you know,
someone always says,
Oh,
I've got this friend that loves you.
And I go, well, what does that mean?
Does that mean, oh, they loved this idea of you on Drag Race, or they love you as a drag queen?
And then you've got to break that shit down because you're dealing with different personalities.
But it's tricky.
It's tricky.
And I know several queens that date fans, you know, that get off on that, you know, that will, you know, have sex and scream hallelujah.
And I don't, that's not my kind of thing. thing you know what i mean that's not my kind of thing
no yeah it's not my type of thing either i just i guess it's because i'm like i want to be loved
and i want someone who's just like in it for the long term because i'm like a fan there's nothing
more unattractive or unappealing than like fucking
someone rolling over and they're just like so what's it like to do this and this and this and
you're like it's my fucking job it's a job it's exactly it's very hard it's it's it's a it's a
very thin line to find somebody that's complimentary and understands it and appreciates it to someone that is a crazy fan. And that's the area that gets, that gets really gray. And I don't
mind people being fascinated or interested in, I'll, I'll give anybody a chance. I mean, I'm not
picky. So it's one of those things where I'm like, let's see, you know what I mean? I don't have a
type so to speak, so I don't cut people off, but overall it's never really kind of worked out,
you know, the maturity level of
understanding you know we need to find dolly parton's husband you know what i mean that's
the kind of husband we need this man lives in the shadows yeah loves that big tittied blonde bitch
has nothing to say talks to her at home yep i love it i and she's always like and he great
and it's like we don't know we don't we't have a fucking clue. And that's how it should
be. How lucky. I love
that. If anybody deserves it, it's
Dolly. You know what I mean? So, you know,
good for her. But that's what I think
we need to find. I need to find somebody
with no social media, somebody
who, uh, that becomes a phantom
person that can live around
and entertain me when I need it, you know?
Yes, that's what I want.
Someone who's just like,
who could just giggle with me and then make me giggle.
Yeah.
And then,
you know,
I just,
yeah,
I have this like idea in my head and I'm like,
where art thou?
Yes.
Well,
I mean,
have you,
besides this one dating app,
is that,
I mean,
do you date regularly?
Do you meet people that you're like,
Hey,
I'm going to go out and hang out with them.
So since, uh, since she became a pfizer princess she's been dating okay okay now what is a date what does a date mean to you is a date like hooking up or is a date like
going to dinner schmoozing and we'll see what happens so usually no dinner okay are you i gotta wait for the food i gotta figure out a
conversation with you we gotta have a drink and then the server's like i fucked up your order and
we gotta wait longer and then the service is bad and then i'm there for two and a half hours and
you told me nothing interesting okay we're gonna go for a drink got it and i'm gonna tell you i have from six to eight
because i have something after i'm meeting friends for dinner um and then if it's going well i'm like
actually i'm gonna cancel dinner because there was no dinner right right right nobody's waiting
on me right right right right right either have another drink and then like try to fuck or if i'm
like this person seems like they're trying to respect me, even though I haven't asked.
I will not try to fuck them and then, you know, try to fuck on the second date.
Got it.
So that's what I try to do.
But dinner, no, that's like an investment.
Well, I do think that's an investment.
And also dinner is tricky with gays, you know, because of the whole bottoming thing.
So they've got to be careful.
I'm not a bottom,
so I don't worry about such things, but when they come, you know,
you don't pick a Mexican restaurant. If you, unless you know,
it's going nowhere. Yeah. Yeah.
Because I always say when a bottom says it's not a good night, trust them.
You hear me? Trust them, bitch. Trust them. But I think it's, um,
I think that's good though. I mean, at least that you're out there and you got to kind of see the people. The trick with it is, for me, with the Grindr situation, I thought by traveling, I'm like, ooh, those nights that I'm in a hotel, this would be fun. But then also with the schedule, the nights that I'm off, I'm like, I don't even want to fucking have anybody breathing near me. You know, I'm just so, you know, so over it that my idea is like, wouldn't it be great? But like you said, if you could cut out the talking and the drinking and all that, let's just get to it and get out. That's rare.
and they'd be like okay let's do it and you're like great yeah but now that i've gotten older and i'm dating older dudes i feel like they're like i want to get to know you and i'm like
for what i'm driving i'm coming through tacoma i'm not coming back here for another year and a
half we're never gonna see each other again why but don't you find them that's also it's a little
tricky now since the pandemic everybody is just like really fucking emotional and everybody's got this attachment. I've missed you. I just enjoy your company. No, bitch, suck my dick and let's go. Like that's that's what you want. You know what I mean? I don't need friendship. I don't need someone else to add on Instagram. You know, look, let's just, just, yeah. Fully agree. I fucked somebody after one of my shows recently.
Okay.
And we like sat in the hotel room for so long,
just talking and I didn't know how to be like,
oh my God, don't you want to go home and go to sleep?
I have to wake up early and get on a flight.
But like, I've already invested 22 minutes yeah so yeah but the crazy thing is though that you you know you've been
on stage talking all night to begin with and then you gotta fucking entertain this bitch after the
show it's like look if you if you know i did a show and you liked it then fucking reward me with
dessert and then just get the fuck out. Like,
like, give me a little taste and go be a gracious bitch and take it like a hoe and get the fuck
like that. That's what I would want to have happen. Yeah, that's exactly what I want. Real
quick. We got to take a break. Sure. And we're back.
Bianca, I gotta know, how did you get into comedy?
Have you always just, you've been funny.
You're a funny person.
It varies.
You know, it's one of those things where with drag, once I started doing drag, I was, you know, doing lip sync and shit like everybody else does.
Because that's what we all did in the 90s.
And what ended up happening was the host of the show was out.
And at that time nobody wanted
to talk like no one wanted to be in front of the audience because remember this is new orleans 1996
uh so 2 a.m on a wednesday night uh because we're a party town bitch um the thing was i was basically
filling in for a host uh because she was out and I basically had to talk while drunk people
drank more and covered costume changes. So my hate and disdain for an audience is kind of,
that's where it began. That's where the bitterness started. And I guess that's where it developed.
You know, you find a set of skills when you're faced with a situation. So it wasn't like,
let me tell you a joke. It was more of insult improvisational moments that would happen because I'm just the clown at the circus in this bar at 2 a.m. doing a show.
And through that is how it all snowballed.
And then obviously once Drag Race happened, which was much later in my life, I was 37.
Well, I was 37 when we started filming, 38 when I finished filming.
In case somebody is going to try to fact check
me on this bullshit, because they love to do that.
Oh, you know people will tweet and be like,
actually? Yeah, uh-huh.
So, um,
when Strag Race happened, I was
ready to hang up drag, just in general. I thought,
you know, I'll quit at 40. It's been a long run.
I've been sick of doing bars. You don't have that point
in your life gets where you're like, I can't do this
anymore. You know, the struggle is real.
And working all day and doing shows at night.
And sometimes you'd have a show.
Sometimes you get fired.
You know, it was the game.
Then I said, let me try Drag Race.
You know, I've seen some other untalented friends of mine find success.
You know, Manila and Jiggly.
And I thought, well, let me take a chance.
So I went ahead and did it.
And with that, I knew there was already a formula in place for Drag Race at that time. Everybody
was doing music videos or albums or all of that. And we all had the same manager. And I told the
manager, no, I don't want to do an album. I don't want to say I want to tour. I want to do my own
show. And so literally that May when I won through October,
I traveled and hit every bar there was against his wishes.
I said, I'm going every fucking place I could possibly go.
And I went and ran around and ran around.
And by October, I had my first show at the Gramercy in New York City.
And that's where it snowballed.
So now I'm on my fifth solo tour that I'm able to do globally, which is wild.
So that was always my plan. You
know, I said, if music videos made money, I'd have made 12, bitch. So the trick was to get on
the road and to go to go to the people. So that's kind of how the game started, you know, and that's
why I've always stayed in that lane. I don't get to do much television or much film work because
of the fact that I'm never available because I'm on the road, you know, and I choose to be on the road, you know? I mean, what a dream, though. But your journey is very
much that of like a stand up where it's like you do clubs, you do five shows a weekend to people
who in some towns are just there to see whatever comedian on the weekend. And you're like, oh,
you don't like me and I'm interrupting your dinner correct until you get to do like theaters
like that's the dream like just to do a weekend of shows at a theater and girl i mean the insanity
of it for me in general was just you know i have this amazing company that i work with with aeg
who produces things and this head of comedy i was touring solo you know kind of mom and pop in it
for the first tour and i was in a lot of theaters that were owned by aeg and the head of comedy is like who is this faggot and why is he selling out and let's
talk to him so they made me a great offer which is how i've been able to get to do carnegie hall
which is how i've been able to get to do um uh what the hell was the one in wembley arena uh in
um uh in the uk which is 12 000 people which is 12,000 people, which is insane.
It's insane. So it's just been this amazing and I hate the word journey,
but it's been this, this, this,
this journey that I realized that the trick is to go out to the people.
And that's what I enjoy doing,
especially after this past year and a half, you know, with COVID you're like,
girl, I'm happy to see anything, you know?
But I mean, what a you're like, girl, I'm happy to see anything, you know?
But I mean,
what a testament to like your comedy,
your personality,
your persona, because it's like,
this is your fifth tour.
So like you're hitting,
like you're revisiting spots and people are still coming out.
Like,
I'm sure people have seen you like five,
10 times.
Yeah.
Probably travel cities to come see you.
So I think that's like, so fucking i saw you at um uh drive and drag at the rose bowl oh god yes you
were so effortlessly funny and like you're so fun to watch and then a queen got on stage and was saying their thoughts about the vaccine.
And you were so funny because I watched a switch in your brain go,
hmm, people have phones, people record things.
Yes, yes, yes.
I'm going to just let this person say what they want to say.
And when they're done, I'll continue the show.
And I was like, whoo!
Well, it's a tricky game now because as a comedian, don't you know this?
There's there's no such thing as context anymore.
Correct.
You say something and and and all of a sudden the punch line is what they post with no context about where it began or if it's a running joke or if it's a thought.
And here come these people that already fucking hate you that go.
You know, and that's that's what I avoid.
That's why tweeting can be tricky.
We talked about that once before.
It's like, if you tweet the wrong thing or without context, they come after you. Now, when I'm on stage, the people know I'm a nasty bitch.
The people pay to see a nasty bitch and I got to deliver being a nasty bitch.
But, but, but in that world, it does get very tricky.
So sometimes you just have to bite your tongue and let it ride, let the wave pass.
And then you just do what you're hired to do.
But when I do my solo show, no one's safe.
I don't give two fucks.
I mean, Jiggly Cagente came to see me the other day and she said, girl, they're going to put you in jail.
So I'm excited.
I take that as a compliment.
I love Jiggly. So, girl, they're going to put you in jail so i'm excited i take that as a compliment i love jiggly so girl they're gonna put you in jail they're gonna put you in jail yeah uh like what do you have any plans for anything else or is live shows what you want to do for
well the the the game is uh and and you know we i think we're all in a place of what's going on during the pandemic, that I knew I had a tour starting. And so we've done America now. And as I said, I'm going into the musical and back into the musical because it's Latin America. Then it's all over the UK and Europe. And then it's all over Australia.
So I will continue my tour into September of 2022.
So I'm back on the road through that time.
So I'm, I'm just happy to have a schedule.
I really haven't thought it through. And, and immediately it was just like,
okay, check this, check this off the list. Let me get my, you know, vaccine.
Let me do what I need to do.
How is this going to work out for meet and greets what theaters we're going to and shockingly starting
with america they were on their best behavior they really did follow through shocking shocking
girl even look florida and texas where masks and teeth are optional they were on they were on their
best behavior so i was i was. So I was quite surprised.
I was quite surprised.
I know.
How have the meet and greets been?
Like, I'm a little scared still to do meet and greets.
So I haven't been doing them.
Well, they have to show proof of vaccine.
And you also have to wear your mask.
And then right when we have distance between us when we take the photo.
And right when we take the photo, you can take your mask off.
So that's the game.
So I've made it through however many cities I've been through and knock on wood, things have gone well.
And also just people have been respectful.
In the end, I'm still kind of shocked that people want to pay extra money to meet me.
So you're just like, all right.
But they do respect the rules.
And, you know, thanks to Photoshop, they can move us closer together.
But that's really, you know, the Avril they can move us closer together but that's really you know
that the avril labrine approach to meet and greet but um i know i still take the time to talk to
them and schmooze with them you know they just have to keep their their masks on while you know
while we're doing all of it so we have enough people around us and people on our team that
keep them and remind them and make sure that we're all safe. And I get tested every goddamn week. So it's, it's insane. I get tested so much. I can't wait to not have a fucking nasal swab up my nose.
Oh wait, they've been doing your nose?
Yeah. What do you get?
Well, I'll talk to the, it's been up my ass, but I'll find out. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
Honestly, I would take it up my ass. Let's just, let's just call it what it is. She horny all the time.
She always be wanting it.
A little tickle, a little tickle.
Just a little, ooh, tickle to the booty hole.
Ooh, ooh, little tie.
Ooh, boo.
Did you ever see, did you ever see that, that, uh, there was a fabulous meme that said,
whoever has my voodoo doll, just please lick the booty hole.
I mean, yes. my voodoo doll just please lick the booty hole i mean yes if someone has a voodoo doll of me
lick my pussy and then lick the booty hole but don't go back to the pussy because don't give me
a yeasty got it got it i didn't realize that was okay so that's how that works okay that's how that
works okay so you got a yeasty you got to do number one before number two got it yes got it
yes good to know and never to the do the two switch because it's not no bueno.
I gotcha.
Okay, great.
Then you end up with a pumpernickel loaf.
Yeah, you don't want that.
I love Cheesecake Factory and I love a pumpernickel loaf.
It is so fucking good.
Well, that's also the advantage of being on the road is, you know, the food options.
You know, you get excited when there's an Olive Garden or Cheesecake Factory.
You know, America, like, that's like a step up.
You're like, ooh, I've got options and large portions.
So that's another advantage to the road.
You know, when we have our off days that we'll have our family dinners where we end up at some restaurant of that type, which you don't really get when you're living in the cities.
You know, we live in New York or Los Angeles.
You eat delicious, very well-crafted food. No're living in the cities. You know, we live in New York or Los Angeles.
You eat delicious, very well crafted food.
No, I'm kidding.
Right, right, right.
But I love shitty food.
Of course.
How do you relax, Bianca?
Do you relax?
Xanax.
I don't do well with time alone.
Like people say, oh, you should take a vacation.
Okay, I can have a day,
you know, maybe putting things off. I like to read is one of the things I like to do,
but there's always something to do. And there's always something to think about, you know,
and I don't do well with too much time off. That's why the pandemic was a bit challenging. I just moved into a new house. So I have that to take care of and reorganize and get my life
together. But it was kind of driving me crazy on the mental level because I just enjoy knowing I have a schedule.
I just, I need, I need that.
I need to know I need to be somewhere doing something no matter how big or small.
I just enjoy the business of it all.
So unwinding is not an option.
Now I've been known to take a weed gummy and pass out in a pool.
I've been known to take a Xanax and fall asleep on the beach which is nice
okay that kind of stuff i can do yeah i love how you're like i'll sleep if it's tropical
and kind of dangerous yes yes completely i'm risky like that yeah Yeah. Okay, so me being a single woman.
Yeah.
Looking, trolling for dick.
She's horny for it at all times.
Yeah.
What do you think I could be doing to get that dick?
Well, I mean, I think men would probably be a little more accepting or be open to your approach.
I think your approach of saying, hey, let's fuck is the way to go.
I mean, it cuts out all the bullshit.
I think that you're doing it right because you don't want to be that girl that's going, I'm hoping this turns into marriage.
I mean, that scares a motherfucker.
And if anybody agrees to that, they're crazy.
But I think your boldness and thinking like a gay man is the way to go is saying, let's cut the shit, which most gay men should cut shit out because that's a technical problem. Although my good friend, Lady Bunny says that diarrhea is a water based lubricant. But nonetheless, when you're in the moment, I think being being up front is the way to go.
And I think you're doing that saying,
hey, I got a time between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m.
and look, I'm this and I just want you to lick it
and stick it and roll.
I think that's the approach to go.
And I don't know if you can do that on those sites.
I don't know if those straight sites are that direct.
I mean, you can.
I just feel like a lot of men have just, I don't know. I feel like I said it before. I think things have just changed and they're like, wait, what? You don't want to know how I went on a hike yesterday?
No.
And I'm like, I've never cared not one time about anyone going on a hike.
No, but what age group are you dealing with here?
going on a hike no but what what age group were you dealing with here so it used to be i just recently upped it it was from like 25 to 47 and now i'm like i don't think i could
fuck with the youth anymore okay so i upped it to 30 or no 29 to like 100
you know all right all right an old horny man is just like hey yeah you got what i like i'm
like okay let's do it you know what's funny is that i remember i talking to a friend of mine
one day and i said you know i just need to find some rich old man you know that's just what a
rich old man and my friend looked at me and said cunt you, you are the rich old man. And I realized, damn, she got me.
But it was, it's that thing. I think, I just think honesty is the way to go about it. I think it's
just important to say, hey, this is what I'm into. This is what I'm about, you know, and nip it in
the bud. If they start talking about their height, bitch, I don't want to hear about your height. I
don't, I don't care. Or put that in your bio. If you go on hikes, don't tell me about it.
Don't tell me about your day. Yeah. If you go on hikes, don't tell me about it. Don't tell me about your day.
Yeah, if you have extra time, don't bother with me.
That, your friend saying you are the rich old man is like that Cher quote where...
Oh, yeah, her mom.
Her mom is like, you just need a nice rich man.
She's like, I am the rich man.
It's true.
It's true.
It's that scary thing where you're like i mean imagine how to share date like
how can you oh my god i mean you know we're peons compared to share but imagine that life
you know and then also the fact that she's in her 70s and looking gorgeous i'm hoping
i'm hoping she's got some action going on because it's fucking share but when you become share share
share share it's like yeah is it possible to be a real person? You know,
who could live up to that? Yeah, who? I feel like everyone would just be so disappointing. There's a
wonderful clip of Cher meeting Kim Kardashian on the Kardashians. And Cher is just like,
okay, thank you. Goodbye. And you're just like, yeah, even Kim Kardashian doesn't impress Cher.
It's incredible.
No, and there's few people that you could say that about,
but Cher is definitely one of those that you go,
you know, maybe Oprah, maybe Oprah.
Maybe.
Maybe Oprah, yeah.
Maybe you get a slight smile and like an oh out of her.
Yeah, and that's it.
Yeah.
But I mean, I can't imagine,
I think that the best way to, I mean, I appreciate appreciate honesty and that's very hard to find in the gay world. Let's be real. And even though I live in a world of make believe of, you know, fantasy and clownness is that the biggest clowns I meet are the people that are like, I want to be in a relationship. I really want to make this work. I really want to see something with it when all you want to do is fuck and then tell a story about it which is completely fine with me um but let's just set the boundaries up front you know what i mean i mean sometimes i will just push myself to go on a date
because i'm like you know what you might actually like them or you might have a really good good
story yes yes story yeah always i can't remember when this was but i some i was like
going out with somebody for like the second time and i was like i really like them and in my car i
was like i don't want a story i just want this to go well yes and then sure enough i got me a story
out of it and didn't see them again i was was like, okay, maybe this is what it is.
Like maybe the universe, God, whoever is just like,
sorry, you have to stay single
because that's how you've made money.
Exactly, that's what I'm saying.
That's where I have to sell myself.
As I paint myself as a clown every night,
I have to go, maybe these are the cards I was dealt.
Maybe I'm meant to just not
be with it because I find that on every other level, everything works out so much better for
me when I'm not attached. And also I'm just, I mean, I'm not into astrology or any of that
bullshit, but I say that, that, you know, I'm, maybe I'm just one of those people that, you know,
I give too much attention to this person and it usually just blows up in my face, you know? So
I think I do better because I can then focus on up in my face, you know? So I think I
do better because I can then focus on what I can control, you know, which is my own life, you know?
And occasionally you pick up somebody here and there to have hookup, but overall relationships
are just very, very hard. And also I think when you're a comedian or when you're out there and
you're fearless and you're saying what you're saying, sometimes they're so intimidated by you
that you can't get a person that's anywhere near your
level you know i don't want somebody that's scared of me you know what i mean yeah and it would just
be nice i think i feel like i've had to explain to so many people that i'm like okay what i say
on stage is yeah they're true stories or whatever but also like there's other stories that have
happened that i don't say on
stage because i'm a fully three dimension four dimensional three dimensional i'm a person in
the round i'm a spherical person not spiritual spherical
i feel like people just get stuck on what they see on stage and they don't realize that like you have so many more experiences that you just don't choose to talk about because that's not inherently funny or that's not what I'm trying to paint right now or whatever. not my identity, you know? And it's one of those things where, of course, I would like it if somebody understood it
or has a sense of humor and gets it
because if it's dark humor or whatever, that helps.
But God forbid, that's not, I mean,
I'm not going to be cracking jokes or reading you
when we're in bed, you know what I mean?
That doesn't come to mind.
It's happened, but it doesn't come to mind.
So I think, yeah, I think that's,
it's like having a smart person that,
oh God, this sounds crazy, but like having a smart person that is understanding.
Why is that so difficult?
Why is that so difficult?
I don't know.
And I, it's truly, you distilled it to the simplest aspect of what we want.
Just a smart person who understands.
Yeah, yeah, completely.
Because the smart people usually get it and understand, you know, I mean, I have friends that are very smart, but I don't want to sleep with them.
And I think it's just, it's weird because I don't know if there's a way out.
I haven't seen any successful relationships, you know, in my world.
As I said, the ones that I do see online, I question it because I know a little too
much information.
But I also wish, sometimes I wish I could be like J-Lo and just fuck everybody
and just move from man to man to man to man to man.
And then go back to the ones I had before.
I mean,
wouldn't that be nice?
What a dream.
What a dream.
What a dream.
Like she is never manless and it's,
it's,
it's fine.
You know,
it seems to be working for her,
but I don't know if I could do that either.
You know?
Yeah.
I mean, I feel like you're too busy
to balance that i feel like i'm too busy to ever balance like a pr relationship and yeah be seen
here be seen there now we're fucking this person yeah that's like that's like a second career she's
got going on well that's the only career she's got going on. Let's be real here. She'll do a movie here and there
and then she's like,
Ben Affleck,
where's my Dunkin' Donuts?
Let's lay on a balcony.
Girl, that kills me,
those publicity shots.
But it is interesting
that that's basically
what I know her to be.
Is she a recording artist?
Maybe.
Is she a movie star?
Maybe.
Is she an actress?
Possibly.
But is she a hoe?
Yes, and a damn good one!
J-Lo is a hoe!
Jenny from the block, and they meant
she was making her rounds on the block.
And she's been sucking lots of cot
around the block, Jenny.
I mean, I'm not mad at her.
I would love for her to send me a cease and desist.
Can you stop talking about me like this?
Please. But no, but in the end,
you go, is that, I mean, it seems to be working for her, but
I don't know if I could do it.
But then there's that moment, you know, those, those peak hours when you're wide awake and
you're just like, maybe that is the way to go.
Maybe that is happiness.
You know, I don't know.
Maybe.
I don't know.
But like, also she has so much money and stuff that like, she doesn't have to hustle.
I don't even know if she hustled to have a crew
i don't know i'm i'm always like wondering about people who live like that i'm like
what was your hustle like to get to where you are yeah because you don't see everybody's hustle you
don't see everybody's like grind or whatever but i wonder that does make you wonder and and not to
mention just for the longevity somebody had said i read one the, I don't know who it was, but it was something on Twitter.
I was pissing myself.
And they said, y'all don't give Jennifer Lopez enough credit for being a good actress.
She's been acting like a singer for 20 years.
And I have been cackling.
It was not my joke, but I was cackling when I read it.
I'm like, now that's good.
Now that's good.
That's good.
I love a shady tweet where you don't even tag the person.
You're just like, here's a fun thought.
Because I think if you're going to be shady, you don't need to tag the person.
Nobody needs to.
They don't need to know.
No, they don't know.
And I also think that, you know, if it's coming from a comedian, I would hope the individual would have a sense of humor.
Actually, I heard a story about Cher and Joan Rivers in particular is that share was performing in in las vegas and so was joan
and after share show in the 70s 80s she would go see joan at night and she goes she would get
share would get very upset if joan did not talk about her in the show because you know she had
all those jokes about share went shopping with her boyfriend at toys r us you know all that kind of shit that she goes she would be offended if she
did not talk about her and i got love that's that's how it should be you know what i mean
that's what it should be about we should all be able to make fun of ourselves for christ's sake
i feel like if a joke is coming from like a place of truth yes that's comedy yeah and like you and it's funny like the j-lo joke i think is
funny i think even she would laugh at it yeah i mean if she if she had a sense of humor about
herself well we know mariah mariah carey was laughing at it yeah you know that mariah carey's
so fucking funny i don't know her oh it was like an interview where they were like jennifer lopez
says she sleeps a full like 10 hours a night and she was like an interview where they were like jennifer lopez says she sleeps a
full like 10 hours a night and she was like i would sleep too if i didn't sing and i was like
it's so fucking funny to me i yeah i think like i don't know like i wish more people could like
laugh at themselves a little bit they Well, they should. They should.
As opposed to just being, I don't want to say everybody's offended by everything because I don't think that is a true statement.
I think we're just becoming more aware of other people's experiences and becoming a little bit more understanding and sensitive.
But I'm like, sometimes people get overly sensitive on behalf of other people who haven't even said that they're offended.
Well, that's the trick.
That's the thing that I find fascinating. And I often say, you know, I refuse to apologize for anything
or try to do some PR stint where it's like,
well, I didn't mean that.
My words got no, no, no.
Either you like it or you don't.
It's not for everybody.
And also in the end, if the individual that I'm talking about ain't mad,
why the fuck are you mad?
And you already hate me, so you're looking for something to come after me with, you know what I
mean? And that's where I say, you know, your audience is your audience and everyone is not
going to like you, you know, and that is okay. But I also think that maybe, you know, it's not
to say that people don't always have opinions, but I think because of social media is so much
more noise, you know, and they just want to jump in the game and say, well, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, or you've done this or you've
done that. And, and that's where, you know, then you're not my audience, you know, then you don't
get it. So I'm not going to entertain it, which is probably the hardest thing not to entertain.
I agree with you. Cause I don't apologize for jokes that I've said in the past that have offended
people. I just don't tell them anymore. I'm like, understand i get it i i shouldn't be talking about this that makes sense like if i
apologize and i'm saying i went on stage and was like i intended to make you mad i'm like no i
thought it was funny at the time and now i've learned and i get that it's not funny yeah we're
not giving people time to grow i don't think yeah. Yeah. And also, I just think it's important that, you know, you don't need to apologize to something
that it just, it kills me because there's a fine line where when someone tells me, well,
you know, that's offensive, or I find this, that, okay, well, it may not be funny to you,
but it may be funny to someone else.
So, okay, so you don't like it.
Then maybe I'm not for you.
You know, and I often say, too, you know, you've got someone like Celine Dion, she's a singer, right? Every song she sings
is not a fucking hit. So what? Let's just, let's just kill her because she did this one song we
don't like. And then therefore she's no longer credited as a singer and she no longer matters.
And you're like, that's not how this works. Everything is not going to be a winner. Everything
is not always thoroughly thought through.
But I also refuse.
Oh, is she apologizing for some of the albums and hair choices she's had?
No.
Should she?
Yes.
But no, that's how I have to look at it.
Because that's what people want from you.
They want you to feed into their madness.
And I'm like, I'm not trying to fuck with some 13-year-old girl on Twitter who's mad at me because she likes Trixie and doesn't like me.
I don't give a shit.
You know what I mean?
I mean, honestly, I think that is such a great way to look at it.
It's like we don't get mad at singers or whatever for like, you know, shitty stuff that they put out.
And it's like, not every joke is a winner.
Not every joke is a fucking hit.
Not even on the same night.
Like one night it could kill the
next night it doesn't it can it can work in this context or setting and not in that and that's
where the filming comes in and that's where the retelling comes in and then there's no context to
it which really can change it if you say hey i mean there was some of the funniest jokes i'd ever
heard which was uh eddie murphy and brawl back in what, 1984, I believe it was. I mean,
offensive gay stuff that I was pissing myself laughing at. But if you say it was from 1984,
and this is what it was, and this is what we had, it's the context you need to understand.
And I recently heard that he apologized for these jokes. And I'm'm going this is crazy to me that why now like at that time that
richard pryor one of the most brilliant people you know i just think that that's that's where
it goes wrong and that's where i think wanting to be liked can get you fucked you know what i mean
i yeah i think i would appreciate it more i didn't know he apologized for that because i think that
special is so funny and it's like yeah some of it is
offense a lot of it is offensive yes but it is the 80s completely different time and you know
there wasn't as much discourse and discussion over shit so it's like let's leave that art in that
time completely that's where that belongs and we know that it's not okay now i just i feel like people aren't being smart about stuff
would you think but then also there's the other side who's like cancel culture is the devil and
you're like oh my god why are you being so wild about this yes because you we want you to not
talk about trans people anymore you are mad you're like you're this is the hill you're gonna fucking die on
i feel like everyone is being insane well it's on level 10 and i think because we're we're so
the access is there you know that we turn on our phones and it's either facebook it's instagram
it's twitter you know there's so much and they just need to fill it with context you turn on
the news you know back in the day the news actually gave you news. Now they give you opinions. So imagine that times 10 with our social media world. I don't even have to watch
the news anymore to know what's going on. I check Twitter. And then when you check Twitter, there's
going to be 40 characters explaining what they think and then this and then that. So it gets
really tricky. And as I said, without context or proper information or knowing where it comes from,
it really doesn't help any of us.
And it just becomes this vicious fucking cycle of bullshit that you're like, is this even true?
Did this even happen?
You know?
Yeah.
I mean, I love that Twitter now is like, do you want to read the article before you retweet this?
And it's like, I should.
I should.
What am I doing?
Absolutely.
I'm just like blindly like, this is terrible.
Then you're like,
oh, actually, I got to walk that back. That article has nothing to do with what I thought it did. The headline led me to believe something else. Yes. Yes. Bianca, we have to take another
break. Sure. And we're back. Okay, I just really want to talk to you about your like signature makeup style like
i feel like you were like this is how i do it you're not getting anything different and i love
that well let's just be honest there's certain queens that do things that are that are that are
beauty queens that are pretty queens and they live by okay this is how i do it or there's just queens
that are transformation queens you know that are like hey i can be anything and try and i look i respect all of that that is their art
and everybody runs differently i like a particular style i know what works for me and this is what
i'm doing and i'm making no fucking exceptions and it you know it has evolved obviously uh you
know the more money you get the more eyeliner you get the more it starts to expand into your hairline
um but also i just think that that's just what i've always liked i like looking artificial money you get, the more eyeliner you get, the more it starts to expand into your hairline.
But also, I just think that that's just what I've always liked. I like looking artificial, because I'm not going to be a pretty soft woman. I'm not trying to fool anybody. I am a clown.
And that's just what I know that works for me, you know? So I love it, especially I was just
doing a live the other day backstage and some bitch
you know i was playing gladys knight because i'm trying to educate the children on important people
that are performers i'm like miss katie labelle miss dion warwick was gladys knight i said all
of these brilliant women are still with us so please celebrate these fabulous artists and stuff
and i'm playing songs and saying you need to watch this, you need to watch this concert. You need to watch this. So as I'm doing it,
I had to stop Gladys Knight because some fucking bitch came in with her
thing.
Every time I see your stories,
you've got the same makeup.
I had to stop Gladys Knight and said,
look at you fucking cunt.
That's what I'm doing.
This is,
I'm doing the same show every night.
This is just what I'm fucking doing.
You want to see looks,
go look at Nina Bodina Brown with her little paper plate
hats that she makes. She'll give
you looks. I'm not that bitch.
I'm not that bitch. And why are you looking for
looks from me when I gave you none
on Drag Race to begin with?
You know? So I'm
not saying that they can't do what that is, but I'm going
what does that even mean? I was even told once
I was even told once by someone that I'm
not a real drag queen because I don't lip sync. whatever the fuck that means. But that's the world we live
in. So as you're trying to educate people, this is their opinion. So they're like, oh, it's the
same. You do the same makeup. Yeah. Because when you look at a picture of it, you know that it's
me. When you see a wig, you know, that's Lady Bunny. You know, you see that dress and those
legs, you know exactly what that is, you know? And I think that it's a Coco Peru, one fucking wig, her entire career, one fucking wig.
Those little bangs and that bob.
Bitch.
And she is, I'm like, why didn't I think of that?
So it's that thing where I go, that's your thing, you know, and that's what works for you.
RuPaul never wears bangs.
Okay.
Anybody talking about that hot topic?
No, but she's never worn bangsul never wears bangs okay anybody talking about that hot topic no but she's never
worn bangs never wears bangs or as they say in the uk fringe she doesn't wear fringe there's no
fringe on her no um so it's it's um it's that thing where i just thought this is what works
for me and and and on occasion you know i have moments where i've been in dressing rooms with
someone like naomi smalls and plastique where I go, girl, why am I even trying?
I mean, with those two, with those two.
I mean, no, I mean, they are women.
And I mean, I am definitely their wicked stepmother.
So it's that kind of a thing where I've just accepted this is what I do.
And it's also, you know, for me, it's therapeutic when I'm getting ready.
You know, you set up and it's part of the process. I started going through my dialogue in my head of what
happens with the show. I put on my Gladys Knight, I put on my Dionne Warwick or whoever the diva of
the day is. And, you know, you just go into the zone. So I know a lot of queens now have, you
know, makeup artists that do things for them or have people that do their ways. I still do
everything myself because I just, I, for me, that's the passion going into the process. So yeah,
that's kind of how it's evolved. And it just helps me get ready.
It's like, right from this time to this time,
I start my process and people leave me the fuck alone.
It's one of the few times I'm by myself, you know,
where I'm not being bombarded and I'm not saying it's problematic.
I mean, when I'm ready to be the show pony,
I'm ready to be the show pony. I'm on be the show pony i'm on time and let's go let's fucking go yeah do you do your own wigs as well
yes that's where i started your fucking wig line is so clean it's so nice well let me tell you
these hoes don't get it now these hoes are all talking about i spent a thousand dollars on human
hair and all my wigs are synthetic.
All of them are synthetic.
The trick to it is you have to have proper wig lace.
And the lace is what matters.
So if you're getting a manufactured wig that has the thicker lace because the wig was made on a machine,
therefore, it had to be thicker for them to run it on the machine.
So therefore, you're going to see it.
But there's a process that you do before that, which I'll tell you privately of how I get it clean, but also having the proper lace is important. So I also have it custom for
my head and then ventilate it, which then it fits my head properly. So there's no pulling and there's
no sideburn action. And, um, it's just a much thinner, more delicate lace that you have to
just take care of, you know? Yeah. It's tricky. It's tricky. It's tricky. Yeah. And I mean, we,
I, I'm wearing still some of
the same because i do a lot of piling of hair you know like like legos um so the some of the
lace fronts i still have i have multiples in in same colors obviously um are from when i wore on
drag race eight years ago that's insane and the thing is the lace is an inch long and you can't
spook it and iucked with that shitty
fucking lighting because we were back in the day uh where i don't think i think we were i think we
were filmed in hd but when it aired on logo it was not an hd but um i think on netflix or wherever
it is now it's it's an hd but yeah that that lace is an inch long and you can't see it it just melts
into your skin even courtney act who has her own wig
company is always like that hairline bitch that hairline it's incredible i like when i get to meet
you up close i i was like stop staring nicole like look her in the eyes and be a normal person
but i was like fuck man you cut backstage i'll show you i'll show you you come backstage i will
show you properly but that's
you know that's also just been a thing you know i like i started with wigs for the opera you know
and i was making wigs for opera divas and you know as the women got bigger the hair had to get bigger
you know uh and i love it that was the game many madame butterflies were done so you know the
folding of black hair i know what to do with and and i guess that's just how i've always looked at
it and there's something there's something I said before, just therapeutic about getting your own
self together. I'm not stressed. I know what I'm doing for myself. I know what works for me. I know
what I can get done in a short period of time. And it's just my little process.
Yeah, I feel the same way. I love just getting ready for a show alone in the hotel bathroom.
way i love just getting ready for a show alone in the hotel bathroom and just take like an hour and a half and i paint and i curl and put the lashes on and i'm like ah she's ready and then i'm like
oh no i'm running five minutes late yeah of course of course of course but that's also the thing too
it's just you know all of that is just part of the package that you do like i've been on the street
where someone will walk up to me and say read read me or say something funny. And I'm just like, bitch, I'm at Starbucks. Like this has nothing to do
with like, you got to catch me when, when you're paying, you know, cause then it makes sense.
I'm off the fucking clock.
Yeah. And, and, and also just that it doesn't work that way when I'm in that,
you know, that monkey suit or that suit of armor, it's a different game, you know,
that then all bets are off but just
walking down the street i might have an opinion but i'm not you know letting everybody know about
it on the street you know uh i absolutely understand that bianca we have come to the end
i ask all my guests this real quick oh god okay would you date me yes i would date you
in a hot minute. And I
already know the trick. I know the trick. You're not going to waste my time. I'm going to lick
your pussy before I lick your asshole. I'm not going back and forth. And listen, I'm not mad
at licking your asshole because I like to talk shit anyway. So this is perfect. This is perfect.
But I would gladly let's go on a date. Let's go on a date. Let's do it. Let's do it. Yes.
