rom the moment she screamed her way onto our screens, we knew Sasha Velour was a gal with something to say. The self-proclaimed ‘thinking queen’ has used her winner’s platform to not only showcase her fabulously unconventional drag, but also to share the story of queer history with the world — both of which are covered in her, out now. In typical Sasha fashion, this isn’t just some coffee-table vanity project with pretty pictures. In her words, the beautifully self-illustrated publication “documents the history of drag but woven together with my personal experiences of drag”. The season 9 winner also explains why her iconic ‘So Emotional’ lip sync will never get old — though she admits her frequent use of the rose emoji makes her “eyeroll a little at myself”.
