[@RegisEduardo.s]

RZZR Again... 30, 40, 50, 100 years... how that changes anything? You have to be professional no matter what. He keeps interrupting her when she's not even finish... when she responds, he not even react... that's not an interview... that's a robot reading lines from a paper. If you are a interviewer/host the most basic thing you have to do is INTERACT with your subject. Time in career don't do nothing for me when you are unprepared and unprofessional with the person in front of you. Specially for someone with his career, he should know better how to behave with his subjects.

I think he doesn’t like this segment cause it’s made for these types of videos. I highly recommend watching the full interview

[@mattcruz764]

This segment is made to be like a quick draw type of thing so that it can be posted onto youtube. Try watching the whole interview (I haven't watched it yet) because he's not always like this x)

[@Phaisalasiri]

He’s so over it

Ennio Togni I mean the way he interacts with them. Here, he doesn't respond to her jokes, barely looks her in the eye, and doesn't wait for her full answers.

“How about a girl?” Me internally: im sure katya would want to come along

To the contrary, I think it makes it immeasurably funnier. If Larry got the jokes, they probably wouldn't be very funny.

[@MinecraftCow345]

Larry rarely laughs- he's a fairly stoic person. In the actual interview she makes him giggle and laugh and even she's taken aback because it doesn't happen too often. Y'all judging this trailblazer so quickly on a youtube-designed segment.

Edit: Ok i will admitt i commented like 30s in to video. After seeing this i have to say that he was pretty cool and light hearted lol, look up his other interviews he if you want to see him little bit grumpy, this was not the case at all.

"Why not a girl?" Larry, I'm not sure how to tell you this, but uhh...

It's so bizarre seeing drag queens on really mainstream stuff, but I guess you could argue RPDR is pretty mainstream now. Like I'm glad things are happening for them... it's just... it feels so weird.

[@SierraG]

same. the first time i saw trixie she was literally a shot girl/drag opener at a gay bar...this is pretty unbelievable to me! insane how far she has come (and how tbh her and Katya pioneered this new resurgence of mainstream drag)

[@deathbeforedecaf7755]

Rupaul has been mainstream since the 90s so yeah drag race has been mainstream since inception. Js

[@APR944]

KGAugh james I find it sort of sad. XX

[@SierraG]

watertownnative really? You think the first few seasons of drag race were mainstream? Not even a little bit lol. You could argue Rupaul was mainstream for a period during the 90s but in the past decade or two he was definitely not influencing pop culture much if at all, nor was drag race until a couple years ago

[@bunnbunn1751]

Larry was an old man trying hard to understand trixie. Y’all don’t give this man enough credit. When you’re born and raised in the era he was, you can’t expect him to fully conceptualize the lifestyle of a drag queen. Props to him for even bringing her on and attempting to.

[@naurcho]

Still waiting on that first kiss, but we've all heard the DragCon story about Katya laying it on her, 4ft away from a sleeping Courtney Act. I hope people are open to learning more from/about Trixie instead of stopping their curiosity at "I can't get past her look". Drag queens look so different from one another, and cover all kinds of performance art. Tracey Martel is a comedian, tap dancer, musician, singer, and bus driver. Versatility, in a pencil skirt.

[@vmin96]

Nacho Agreed. Trixie is very good for drag because in her own words she challenges the current ideal of femininity. Trixie says that we should question ourselves for looking at her insanely small waist and curves and makeup and think it resembles a woman. Trixie the character is a challenge to current standards of ultimate female. It truly is amazing if you stop and just listen to what she has to say. :)
