Honestly, Maddy is doing some seriously important work with this show. Basically giving queer people an opportunity to tell their entire stories. It humanizes queer people in a way that’s so important when we’re still fighting to be treated equally. Trans people especially.
I thought it was sweet of Maddy to mention that she didn't do the old photos out of respect, but also was nice to hear Kylie explain why (for her at least) it would have been okay.
YES. And she was so personal and genuine when I poured my heart out, before she won, All-Star six, which I was rooting for her all the way because I knew she was a superstore and I knew she was gonna fucking win it. Kylie, has been one of the best celebrity experiences in my life, I should have that I haven’t had any bad experience with celebrities, but she was the best one because I don’t know how to explain it, but I could feel her heart when I spilled my guts to her and she appreciated it so much. She is such a human. I love her. I love this episode. I love drag.
while transitioning isnt linear, and one person does not speak for all trans people, hearing what kylie has been through to get where she is today is helping me cope with a lot of the confusion ive been facing in my life as of recent. thank you kylie and thank you maddy for giving kylie such a safe space to speak her truth. kylie is one of the most down to earth people EVERRR
A friend of mine wanted to transition but was living with strict orthodox russian parents so she was actually scared for her life. So she had no possibility of cross dressing for these 2 years. Thats why my family helped her order estrogen from spain and we got it delivered to our flat so that her parents wouldn"t know. As a law in my country you had to be taken care of a doctor once you take the estrogen so we basically skipped this 2 year period as Kylie did. Im so proud of her for taking these steps and now 9 years later she is happier than ever.
Love this interview. Amazing, as always. What I truly love is that we are seeing icons come on now who are fully aware of Maddy's show, her vibe, and knowing the show is about them as an entire person, and not just a performer. They look forward to what dirt she can bring up, the parting gifts, the quick-witted shade. I've been binging Maddy content lately, not just GITMS, but her appearances on other channels and podcasts, and it is so abundantly clear how she is viewed in such high regard by her fellow queens. I hope she sees that. It's very clear to the rest of us.
I don't think people realize how different the entire culture was when drag race started. Even within the lgbtq community, drag was not that popular and it certainly wasn't well respected. And then, a lot of queens were doing gigs just for tips and drink tickets, being paid even $50 for a night was lucky to have. With transitioning, it was basically taboo to not fit either end of the binary, so there was a massive pressure that if you said you were trans out loud, you were supposed to be "unclockable". We look back at old seasons and say it's antiquated, but that's what progress means. Drag Race then was ahead of its time, but with that said, obviously when we looked backwards some things will look....backwards. That's the point of moving forward.
10:25 Especially crazy, considering that Maddy was straight up on a season where Kerri Colbi spelled majority of the cast into trans women at the snap of her fingers (the only one safe were the girls who already were women and the straight guy).
omggg im so in love with kylie sonique love, shes gotta be one of the most charming winners of all stars, so down to earth and dtf. also maddy, we see you miss girl. a straight guy who is so connected to the community that he can actually understand the crazy realities of transphobia or homophobia and empathize with the hurt. its impressive , true soul.
I cannot fathom the strength of this beautiful individual who went through so much abuse and yet did not become cynical but on the contrary radiates love and kindness ❤ Especially the part about standing up against bullying touched me.
I loved Kylie during the AS6 reading challenge. Jan said to her: "There could be a hundred people in a room, and 99 have no idea who you are." And Kylie says: "I bet you won't fucking forget me after this." 😂 So good! And accurate!
this is another amazing episode. maddy knows her power and wills these meaningful conversations so well. kylie is amazing with her insights on transitioning and her acknowledging her past self and showing him love and appreciation. such a good episode
I cannot with Maddy sticking out the tongue after saying crazy kooky lol Love this episode more of these great interviews please! P.S. Sonique is amazingggg!
This woman’s life is a netflix/ HBO Max docuseries waiting to happen. She has truly one of the most if not the most beautiful soul to come from all the drag race franchises. She deserves everything and more.
I'll never forget what Kylie said on AS6: "On season 2, I believed in my talent and potential. But I knew that was not my moment." And that's so true when you watch season 2. It's obvious that it's not her moment because she's given hardly any screen time.
Whole interview teleported me in my deep places in soul even tho I am not trans person. However we all are humans and living our adventure, exploring our destination. I remember in 2021 how free I felt when Kylie won AS6. A crown well deserved, and now I am feeling relief hearing her story❤
Initially, I wasn't on board with Kylie winning AS6, because I was a Rajah stan. But after rewatching it and as time went on, I am totally on board with her winning. It's a better Rudemption story, and she's so deserving. 🥰
On a real note, this sponser is something that i really think is important. Its really informative to see the biases in a news station and keep up to date on stuff that the left wing may be missing out on knowing avout
Such a fantastic interview! As a girl who is new to transition, I love hearing other trans women who transitioned long ago and their experiences. From one Kylee to another Kylie. 💋🏳️⚧️💕
Sonique is a natural born star. Her story is very inspirational for anyone going through a rough time in life or feeling lost in life. She has inspired me, and I admired that confident, beautiful woman she has become. I wish Sonique a long, wonderful life on this Wonderful Earth 🌎 ❤️ ✨️
My fav queen. It’s crazy how much I relate to her. I’ve been lucky to have met her at dragcon. Yes, I agree about crying but I think it puffs up your skin and it’s cleansing too. I think that release is good for your skin as opposed to holding it in. She’s so amazing. Love ❤
"It was a marathon, not a race" as someone who is transitioning at the moment, this was so beautiful to hear, the whole segment made me so emotional because I've never felt so seen with her statements, I'm on hrt rn, but still not living as a woman, I've been on this journey for around 9 years now, and just now I've started hrt, it felt right, I'm 27, since I was 18 I started to build my connnections with queer people and lived as a girl in my socials, now I'm on the "beginning" again and it feels crazy, because in your mind you already know who you are but outside in your appearance you don't see that... But again, thanks for sharing your experiences and speaking about it so raw, cuz I've felt so seen haha
What a sweetheart she is, I always knew she was beautiful, but I couldn't really tell what she was like from Drag Race & All Stars, but this interview really shined a light on her, I'm so impressed with her journey (we share some similarities with family life BS) & how she has taken her life by the reins & really set after her dreams! What a great interview.❤️
If I could graph my gayness, it would have quite a few highs and lows. However, the highest point - so far - is when I ugly cried during her crowning of AS6. That trip/stumble into a gymnastics move was my Super Bowl moment. There is just something about her!
Kylie is such a beautiful person. She has a beautiful heart, and she just seems like the kind of girl that I would get along with right off the bat. I love her so much
She’s such a beautiful and inspirational person inside and out. She’s been through a lot of really tough shit and still she never stopped believing in her destiny. I’m in awe hearing her talk about her life
I ♥️ SONIQUE !! I thought she was gorgeous and androgynous on season two. And now she’s a ALL STAR ✨GODDESS!! ✨ so sweet and lovely ! I’m also from Atlanta ! Those Atlanta girls ! ♥️
Kylie is so amazing. I love that we got to experience her growth over the years. I have one comment that hopefully makes her feel good. I had no idea she thought of Gwen Stefani as such an icon and she was my first like pop girlie I became obsessed with when I was in middle school. I’ve always thought of her style as Gwen so it’s so affirming to hear that’s actually what she’s going for!
This was a brilliant interview! I greatly enjoyed hearing more about Kylie Sonique Love's life. I'm sad to hear about her childhood, and it seems Voss media didn't give her what she deserved in season 2. I'm glad rupaul changed as a tv show but it makes me feel like it may be thanks to Kylie.

Hey Maddy,
Thank you for being such a strong ally!!!! Your shade is as magnificent as your research!!!
🤩
Why am I mad that Maddy didn't put on a funny outfit for the advertisement 😔 that's one of my favorite parts 😢. But great interview nonetheless 😊
Honestly, Maddy is doing some seriously important work with this show. Basically giving queer people an opportunity to tell their entire stories. It humanizes queer people in a way that’s so important when we’re still fighting to be treated equally. Trans people especially.
I love how Maddy does exactly what you wrote!! But also shades so so hard lol
The Thorgy image appearing when Kylie says “I love Pink” HAHAHHAHA MADDYYYYYYYYY
“SONIQUe the Hedgehog” 😂🧡 what a good ass time this was
I thought it was sweet of Maddy to mention that she didn't do the old photos out of respect, but also was nice to hear Kylie explain why (for her at least) it would have been okay.
The way Kylie leans closer to the mic to read Maddy in the opening. ICONIC! Maddy could never.
That’s why she’s Mother
Cuz being white is a read today
Maddie could lean forward into a microphone if she wanted to. In fact, most human beings can.
@@stevencramsie9172 womp
Not slandering the host unprovoked 😭
Kylie is like that fun aunt who works at a weed store and sneaks you edibles for your birthday behind your mom’s back!
YES. And she was so personal and genuine when I poured my heart out, before she won, All-Star six, which I was rooting for her all the way because I knew she was a superstore and I knew she was gonna fucking win it.

"No one can destroy my hopes & dreams but me" 👏
NEVER CLICKED FASTER IN MY LIFE
Big same
SAME
Fucking love her
Ok, well that's on you, mama.
SAME!!!!
I love Kylie just bulldozing through the shade as if it's the hundredth time she's heard it. lmao
i was wondering if she didnt get the shades or just didnt react
How does Kylie makeup look soo good under every light there is?
when u reach levels of mothering she has no light can diminish that MUG
Because she’s hot (respectfully)
Great skin, the girl is sOooft
Genuinely, she's so gorgeous!!
That's what happens when you're pretty
I could listen to Sonique say anything for any length of time.
The way Kylie says "Whenever" just as much as Maddie.
Yes! Came to comment that too!
A friend of mine wanted to transition but was living with strict orthodox russian parents so she was actually scared for her life. So she had no possibility of cross dressing for these 2 years.

As a queer person who also grew up in a small town in Georgia and is currently trying to move out of the south Kylie's story inspires me so much.
Moved from Alabama to a small town in Northern California. I promise it’s worth it.
Sending you good vibes 💕
Probably my favorite GITMS episode to date. Shouldn’t have expected anything less from Kylie. She’s so wise
36:30 "she was out of fish food Henny" 😂😂 dead
‘those are some dramatic kind eyes today’ lol love Sonique 💗
"SONIQUE THE HEDGEHOG" IS SENDING ME 😭😭😭
I love how every time Maddy shades her Kylie just keeps going
Love this interview. Amazing, as always.

One of my favourite queens and winners ever. Her legacy, her history, her energy, her confidence, her wisom. Kylie is everything ❤👑
23:21 ‘loveeee pink’ lmao
😭😭😭😭😭😭

Must be something in the water over there at Sunset Las Palmas Studios
I love tranos
id say Kerri's snap doesn't work on maddy bc he had developed an immunity after having a past experience with transitioning
@@giz749 also that
Kylie absolutely plays a huge part in trans history ❤ I’m so proud of her & I love her so so so much 😭❤️❤️
thank you maddy we all say in unison
omggg im so in love with kylie sonique love, shes gotta be one of the most charming winners of all stars, so down to earth and dtf. also maddy, we see you miss girl. a straight guy who is so connected to the community that he can actually understand the crazy realities of transphobia or homophobia and empathize with the hurt. its impressive , true soul.
Her journey was really well articulated. Thank you for sharing.
Kylie needs a pod or a doc. Must.have.more.Kylie.
i saw miss Kylie Sonique Love and i clicked so fast, Gia hasnt even thought of making the door, let alone opening it
I cannot fathom the strength of this beautiful individual who went through so much abuse and yet did not become cynical but on the contrary radiates love and kindness ❤ Especially the part about standing up against bullying touched me.
I loved Kylie during the AS6 reading challenge. Jan said to her: "There could be a hundred people in a room, and 99 have no idea who you are." And Kylie says: "I bet you won't fucking forget me after this." 😂 So good! And accurate!
Im foaming at the mouth ty for posting rhis love you sonique
17:49 “ marathon , not a sprint “ lord bless her lol she said “marathon not race” 😂😂😂😂😅😅😅
Kylie wearing the Gwen Stefani L.A.M.B. Where Did My Lamb Go? hoodie with Mario Lopez is iconic
this is another amazing episode. maddy knows her power and wills these meaningful conversations so well. kylie is amazing with her insights on transitioning and her acknowledging her past self and showing him love and appreciation. such a good episode
Kylie is definitely one of the most important queens in drag race history and she's also important in television history in general too!
KYLIE OMGGGG I DID NOT KNOW I NEEDED THIS COMBO 😭😭😭
This is one of the best interviews I've ever seen...not just on this channel....but from all Drag Race Interviews! xoxo
Kylie speaking about how people reached out to her and were inspired truly tells me that she's just as beautiful on the inside
I cannot with Maddy sticking out the tongue after saying crazy kooky lol Love this episode more of these great interviews please! P.S. Sonique is amazingggg!
can’t believe I’m from the same town and graduated from the same college as this queen!
Lol Maddy or Kylie?
@@kellygreengables3936 Kylie! And I’m trans too so I really look up to her ☺️

This woman’s life is a netflix/ HBO Max docuseries waiting to happen. She has truly one of the most if not the most beautiful soul to come from all the drag race franchises. She deserves everything and more.

Maddy finally met her match in the LEGENDARY Ms. Kylie Sonique Love 😍
the video where kylie is dragging that dude around for taking some of her tips. I LOVE HER!!!!!
I don't watch a lot of your content but Kylie kicked me right in! Love her so and you've handled her with aplomb! Excellent. Thank you 💙🥰💋

Absolutely adore you Kylie! Thank you for coming to little ole Baton Rouge last fall. I had a blast and my husband did too!
The queerest conversation between two straight people. Love ur content Maddy!
I love how real honest and unfiltered she is with her insight, obsessed with people like her in this day and age
My fav queen. It’s crazy how much I relate to her. I’ve been lucky to have met her at dragcon.
Yes, I agree about crying but I think it puffs up your skin and it’s cleansing too. I think that release is good for your skin as opposed to holding it in. She’s so amazing. Love ❤

I'd listen to her podcast. She speaks so well about tough subjects, not exploiting or being graphic.
This is one of my fav episodes so far. I’m so proud of her!
I once saw Kylie perform and I was blown away, she's so beautiful!
I BEEN WAITING FOREVER, SO GLAD YOU GOT HER ON
Kylie is such a loving person, full of hearts, grace and beauty ❤
"micro-dosing" transness!!! LOL Brilliant. This transguy thanks you for your journalistic and linguistic excellence.
Kylie, 15 years a crown and 100k later is still pissed that they didn't like her lady gaga is so funny to me 😭
If only Gaga could let her know she liked her impression to give the closure she needs!
How amazingly grounded she is after the abuse she suffered. What a great episode
I ♥️ SONIQUE !! I thought she was gorgeous and androgynous on season two. And now she’s a ALL STAR ✨GODDESS!! ✨ so sweet and lovely ! I’m also from Atlanta ! Those Atlanta girls ! ♥️
I could listen to Kylie all day. She always seems so warm and sweet. Also so fucking quick with the wit. Adore her.

You are amazing at these interviews. Some of us just know the names but you get us to know the actual person.
Kylie having a conversation with her season 2 self was so wholesome.

I truly believe Kylie has never looked bad a day in her life
Gagggggg. Inhouse pharmacy. Sooo funny. Haven't heard that in 12 years. Choked on my tea when she said it. Gagged.
