Bianca Del Rio

“Everything is not serious. If you don't like what I'm saying, change the channel - don't look at me, don't buy a ticket. You either get it or you don't, and it's fascinating because it's usually intelligent people with a sense of humor who get it.”

“I have problems like everybody else. I have problems with razor burn, and I try not to eat food that will make me gassy before meet-and-greets with fans.”

“Basically, I want the most unnatural look possible.”

“There's always something that you go 'I should've done this better, I would've done that.'”

“In the gay world, and in drag in particular, they love to put you on a pedestal and then two minutes later rip you down.”

“I've had some great gigs and had horrible ones. I always look at the horrible ones, and think there's got to be something in this that I can use later in my show. It all pays off in the end.”

“Obviously I have to use makeup remover, which I have my own makeup remover called Bianca Remover, which you can buy online.”

“I wish I had a sad story, but I don't. Too many gay people have a sad story.”

“We all have things we're ashamed of.”

“I've never been a dreamer.”

“I mean, I'm a drag queen, any excuse to wear a costume means it's going to be a good time.”

“I was always a creative child. I also liked to paint and draw. All those years of doing those types of things, I was grateful I had those experiences because it changed my life later on. I know they weren't acceptable for what society assumed a boy should do, but I think its just your passion, it's what you're drawn to.”

“Everything that I was ridiculed for as a child - being too feminine or wearing a dress - has made my life fabulous now.”

“I am a grown man who is an entertainer with a specific type of humour and if you don't like it, that's okay, I owe you nothing.”

“Shockingly, I'm pretty normal.”

“It's important for me to get close to Sarah Huckabee Sanders and actually fix her makeup.”

“You gotta have moisturizer cause I'm old. You gotta have that. You know for every glass of wine I drink I get drier and drier so I have to keep my self well moisturized.”

“Drag queens are not pathetic creatures. Drag queens are fabulous and fun.”

“Everything is not a political statement. Everything is not about being an advocate. Sometimes it's just pure entertainment.”

“I can laugh at anything, there's humour in all of it and I think the minute you find it, the better life is.”
