Fierce and erudite, Mx Velour kept the whole season thoughtful and intellectual, actually deploying her experience living and studying in Russia on a student research Fulbright to explain the difficulties that gay men face abroad. Mx Velour was a wonderful in-show historienne, making note of the impact of drag, pointing to its various evolutions, and always staying ahead of the curve as she also served as a repository of knowledge. Her Graciousness was incredibly gracious, to boot. All hail Queen Sasha Velour! "Yes, ma'am, I'll take that dollar: doesn't even matter I'm a Fulbright scholar. I'd rather be modest, but I need to show it: There's a lot of pretty girls, but a Queen gotta know shit." #squadgoals
