    she may be one of the underrated winner of drag race but the way she chose to use her platform to elevate the art of drag by actually giving back platforms for other drag artists and not to mention how educational she is whenever she's on camera is just so special and dare i say, beyond what the other winners did.

      What exactly do you mean by underrated? I think she is one of the most unique and inspirational, and I’m sure we all know that

      She is only underrated if you are a clueless fan who knows nothing of drag outside of RPDR. She is actually one of the more successful and celebrated winners in the world at large.

    as much as shea statistically should’ve won season 9, sasha has more than proven herself as the rightful winner and has lived up to her title arguably more than many other winners. she almost transcends drag the way queens like raja do. sidenote, seeing sasha on an all winners season would be so magical. i think she’d really give a challenge to the other winners

    Nightgowns is such a heartwarming experience because you can see that it was crafted for the people to know it was a craft. It is like art saying "this is art". And it so brilliant and shows so much of the community that we do not see in the mainstream media. And I totally agree with Sasha: after you go out of the rules you accepted for yourself, you start seeing that not all of that matters. You can be so much more.
