She is everyone's favorite Russian and she has come to expose herself! She is the fan favorite of the drag community and will be talking #DragRace, #Rupaul, #Trixie, her new book, her struggle with addiction, and so much more. NOTHING and NOBODY is off limits. I sit down with the one and only #Katya for a special interview.

[@gabriellaberman]

it’s funny to me that Katya said don’t meet your heroes and that your expectations will lead to resentment. I bumped into Katya out of drag in Melbourne and she was exactly how I expected her to be. So authentic

[@jessica23claire]

[@kennethbitanga4800]

I met Alaska right after she won and she sure was rolling off the winnings. It was disappointing to meet her. She was very rude. I even bought merch, and she was still uppity. She used to be my favorite, not anymore.

Katya showcases the art of being oneself, AND a good person - which is way harder than being a bad person, and why people will choose to be the latest more often than not. Katya is a good person, in-and-out of drag, which is saying A LOT in today's society, consumerism, politics, etc. They choose to be themselves AND a good-person, which is, I'll admit - at LEAST - a BIT admirable, amirite?

She does, it's not just a perceived action from you @B.S. Bernasconi. It's a very popular action among drug addicts & alcoholics. I'm an addict going on 3 years clean & I've noticed it for years in group therapy or even just talking to a fellow addict, there's just so much shame & the feeling of "im not worthy" or "likeable" or "attracting in any way". Definitely comes with the territory of being afflicted with that horrible disease, repressed memories of abuse for being homosexual & underestimating how much talent, love & appreciation exists within a human being.

Really enjoy your interview style, Joseph. Respectful, letting her talk, asking the right questions. The only tip I'd have is maybe have a lav mic (assuming you have one on Katya) on yourself as well (edit: I now see you're also wearing a lav mic, but it sounds quite different from when you're talking compared to Katya, is that possible) and stay with that sound even when you go to the wide shots, as now the sound sometimes gets a little 'hollow' when you go to one of those wider shots :-) But overall a great interview, I really enjoyed watching it, you have new subscriber!

Coming in late, but just finished watching Unhhhh (every episode very quickly, yikes to my life right now) and rewatched Moving Parts from a different perspective and I just want to say that Katya (and Brian) is such an introspective and insightful person while also being naturally funny, likeable, and just a person who I appreciate so much. She is one of the very few people in the spotlight who I wish I knew personally. I just can’t emphasize enough how much I appreciate this person. Also, the interviewer is really good and deserves mad props for his conversational style. I imagine it would be challenging to avoid the temptation to change subjects to get through your questions but he seemed to create a nice space for them to both be authentic and kept the conversation as organic as possible during a formal interview.

I see Katya, I click.

[@kathrynmays4708]

Katya is my most favorite human being ever 👑 .. Also “Uuunnh” is the best show ever

[@blake12396]

y’all cannot tell me this isn’t a Sean Cody set...

[@JesseDanLee]

17:18 "She's going to wipe my ass with the floor" . . . visceral and moving.

[@sharonneedles7956]

KATYA IS LIFE and in her words, "i have never been one to use excessive hyperbole."

[@mariahpokedawg7124]

Katya is so damn relateable. "Wait that was a lie" 😂😂 i love that she does that. Most people would just pretend the statement was true

[@jackl8025]

The real question is why it did it take KZbin 11 whole hours to recommend this to me?

Katya: I'm not a winner Fans: But we want you to win anyway

Katya's dad making his three year old son a cheerleader pompom wig is everything to me

[@lynliberty4972]

Katya's "Read U, Write U" performance on S7 was by far the best! Funniest, best choreo - plus, she's gorgeous! Love!

[@kalawren1670]

Interviewer - So did you start feeling better aftet that? Katya - NO

[@gavinconnelll6757]

Yes, she's a great drag queen but can we just appreciate how damn SMART she is? Her mind is incredible

[@Tyler-tq1yf]

Everything she says and how she acts is just...... Relatable

[@nolsee1176]

Thank you, Joseph, for asking the good questions and then not interrupting the guests. Your interview etiquette is really great, you should be proud.

I’m literally at the moment studying complicated topics in pediatrics, and Katyas voice is so soothing it makes me concentrate...

[@gaia260686]

Season 7 is my absolute favourite. That Shakespeare challenge, it floors me everytime 😂

[@boles14212]

I am SO fucking excited to watch this interview!! You really give such brilliant interviews...your questions and topics are so well thought out and you deliver them so well. I have a feeling this is going to be awesome!!

[@ShatteringPsyche]

She’s a Lana fan. And here I thought no one was perfect ❤️ Queen

Nothing like a psychological woman to fulfill our fantasies!

"I've gotta do uuuuggggh Britney...which is fine" lol

[@shawolarmyatiny]

Aww Katya I can relate about not being able to love yourself, the recovering addict in me won't allow my own self love at the moment cos there's not enough room available because my self loathing is taking up all the space but I have an enormous amount of love for you Katya your bravery & honesty when talking about your recovery & mental health were inspiring I respect you so much, thank you for always being you. Sending loads of well wishes & lots of love from Scotland💖

[@mogensbrnnum255]

The White Rose I hope you’re feeling better 💗

[@elidisco]

I just opened this intending to watch only a few minutes but I got totally sucked in. Thoroughly entertaining and eye opening! Katya's personality is so appealing and the interviewer was great :)

[@nicovamp]

Same thing happened to me

[@marisarae766]

Katya is like a different (superior) breed of drag queen/human. So humble and intelligent.

[@aweevents5744]

Her and Sasha are 🧠 👸

Katyas analysis on winning is like watching art come together
