Lady Bunny breaks down the difference between "Drag Race" and the world of drag 

I really wish Bunny would be in that fourth permanent judges spot. She just would contribute so much. Imagine her clowning these queens. The level of humor would be so elevated!

She's a lot more inclusive than RuPaul. Lady Bunny has tons of perspective and understands that drag is done in so many ways.

He asks Bunny one question and she talks for thirty minutes straight. I love it lol

I love Bunny reading Ru for judging queens on their drag when Ru hasn't got up in drag herself without someone else doing it for her in 15 years 😂😂

Lady bunny’s first exposure to drag was when she saw a pterodactyl and couldn’t tell if it was male or female

Lady Bunny basically interviewed herself

At least Lady Bunny can remember their names.

“I am a 55 year old man. I don’t get paid without makeup! “ I love a straight-talking performer.

Pouring all the T at the party, Lady Bunny. She’s legit iconic and legendary and a class act with humor and brains. She needs her own show on tv too.

"ladies and gentlemen.. Pearl!!" 💀

My love for Bunny knows no bounds. I was lucky enough to catch her in 1984 at Backstreet Atlanta, months before she and Ru and Larry made the trek to NYC. I said "join me for a few drinks?" and she very graciously told me to put that 15 bucks (remember, this was when drinks were cheap) in the tip jar for the bartender, and introduced me to Charlie Brown, saying "this Southern boy was brought up right, he knows how to treat a Lady." That's class. It's a moment I will never forget.

Bunny is a genius hidden under 15 wigs

I am so glad he beamed down from the Starship Enterprise to interview Lady Bunny

Thank goodness for Lady BunBun. I am getting tired of people saying that every drag queen needs to be one thing. Drag is many things to many people. If we try and put it into a box we're going against what drag is all about.

Bunny should be more celebrated than she is. ❤️ 🐰

if anyone can read Rupaul it's lady bunny!

Y'all she wasn't throwing shade at Pearl saying she's not talented. All Lady Bunny is saying is, Pearl isn't a stage performer. Pearl has her own gig.

I am so happy this conversation happened. It totally boggles my mind that people completely miss the point of drag. When you wake up in the morning and put on your "woman" clothes, "man" clothes, "I'm a gay person" clothes, "INSERT WHATEVER" clothes, YOU ARE IN DRAG. Drag for me has always been about conscious play with IDEAS ABOUT WHO WE ARE rather than who we actually are which extends far beyond any label. I'm excited for boy and man drag and weirder non gender conforming drag to become a thing because I think it will create space for us to move further out of the prison of identity. The other point mentioned in this video that I want to applaud: HOW IS THIS COMMUNITY SO VICIOUS?! Queer spaces are a perfect example of internalized hatred and abuse. After being misunderstood and abused by mainstream society, now we mistreat and slander individuals within our own "community" for being different...or rather different than what is expected.

I love how the interviewer gets cracked up at times! Bunny is such a great queen! She's like my dear old, old, old alcoholic, old, old skanky, goddess aunt. I wish she would read this so she'd know how much I love her!!!

A Legend speaking. Obsessed. Such an intellectual person. Thank you Bunbun !

Yall should remember that Bianca indeed was criticized for wearing harsh make up especially in the eye but child Trixie came in . Bianca became just simple decent rich unclockable rich white woman and we all know she is not even white lol

“If Drag is self expression, then we should throw out all the rules.” Bless you Bunny - the true T. Also “you’re dumb and you’re mean!” 😂❤️❤️❤️

Sasha Velor also was very different compared to the "expected" pagent drag. It's the only thing, that I don't like about Michelle Visage judging drag race is her focus on everything being "Glamour Drag" and if anyone doesn't follow that cookie cutter gets marked down. The one I really got angry about was Katia and a Hello Kitty challenge where Michelle ripped her outfit, but it actually was a Japanese character on the front of the outfit, she just couldn't see it and it ended up sending Katia home. RuPaul is looking like Mrs Roper from Three's Company. Loved it Bianca rimmed a wasp nest.

Hilarious, intelligent, and honest to a T. Werk, Ms. Bunny.

"She had rimmed a wasps nest" lmao

I adore this rancid rabbit. A true hall of famer. Deserving of life achievement.

I’m laughing so hard that she just said Ornacia instead of Vivacious lmaoo, fkdhdlyljfkgjf

Absolutely on point, its sad to see such a beautiful community, yet so vicious. Bunny is so funny!

I love how Bunny just answered questions how she wanted to.

The reason Bunny's not a judge on DR is because Ru probably knows the power of only having one queen on the panel.

miss bunny spilling the tea on the judgmental fetuses

Everybody talking about Milk not getting critized about her drag need to know that before All Stars she actually got critized a lot for her "non-feminine" and glamorous looks, not for her attitude. All this happened after the interview, Lady Bunny was talking about the hate she got on s6 for her looks.

I swear Lady Bunny can do no wrong!!!

I feel like lady bunny has been waiting for AGES to say that lil speech lmao I LIIIIIVE

Wow Lady Bunny and I share the same Drag Mother Taisha Le’ne Khan.... I never knew ♥️✨

I just love Lady Bunny! so right everything she said!

I’m surprised at the lack of comments from the 14 y/o drag fans sending Bunny death threats. When a legend speaks its time for the children to shut up and listen.

I love bunny she’s so experienced that she can go on forever and she knows what’s she’s talking about ❤️

I'm a simple person - I see 'Lady Bunny' and i subscribe! It's a travesty to me that queens like Bunny and Jackie Beat aren't asked to judge on Drag Race. I'd much prefer that than the usual parade of Hollywood idiots with something to promote.

I feel like the one who's worst about "boy drag" is Michelle. It drives me nuts. I love the variety shown on drag race. Like if specific challenge calls for glam, pageant looks, sure. But damn, let a queen have a look. I would love a bearded queen!

I love Lady Bunny! She always schools the children.

I think she makes excellent points, very well spoken and astute!

Lady Bunny on her early understanding of drag: “There were always different kinds of drag, some would be trans performers who did drag...” Wish she would tell her Gurl Ru that.

Sharon Needes, Talent: Vegetarianism.

YEEEES LADY BUNNY! TEACH THE CHIL'REN!

"Trump voters of drag" - actually a perfect description haha

Rimmed a wasps nest! Gagged 😂😂

Y’all listen to the legend now. Lady Bunny is on point.

Why is Lady Bunny never been RPDR’s judge? She’s amazing! 🐰💄✨

Lady Bunny must know the impact she played alongside Ru as new-wave queens, she seems fairly humble here about herself but it seems her perceptions of her life and career in drag don't recognize that her contributions, style, and personality have made ripples in what drag is.

too many judgy wee queens furiously typing without thinking. I have total respect for any performer who does drag, they make a huge effort whether it's your cuppa tea or not !

Im a younger fan (16) and honestly I love all types of drag outside of drag race, I especially like more surreal, and out of the box types of drag. I completely agree w lady bunny about drag race giving a limited perspective on the art form as a whole, however.

Absolutely class interview. Lady Bunny is hilarious, iconic and talks a hell of a lot of sense henny!!

Can Bunny run for president please ?

"I'll have you know, I identify as TRANS FATS!!" Oh Bunbun, we love you so much lol.

Lady Bunny is right. I started drag at 14 years old and I'm 50 now . I love drag race but it's not reality it's as she said it's a competition show

This was so necessary! Love Lady Bunny. Glad she mentioned Drew Droege. I think about that kinda often, people forget that there’s a whole world of drag, and that RPDR is a TV show simply showing a slice of it. Not everyone wants to be on RPDR, and just because they do drag shouldn’t feel obliged!

Loving the goddess herself Lady Bunny telling this Star Fleet cadet just how it really is.

Can we all just agree that young people need to sit down, listen more, give their opinion a little bit less often and with more respect and information?

This guy asks questions like hes not in the same room as Bunny.

What a pleasant surprise! A nice long, quietly paced interview with an intelligent and articulate performer and expert on the scene! I had no idea Lady Bunny was so much more than a foul mouthed dropper of one liners and f-bombs. (Forgive me! :-D ). Now I really, really like her. Thank you, guys.

drag is real theatre, not instagram. Queens have personalities, not fkg snapchat. So happy to have discovered drag in 1986 thru Wigstock. I've been watching Ru and Bunny for a looooong time.

That was the oddest episode of Star Trek (TOS) I've ever seen. Who knew that's what Bones and Nurse Chapel talk about in the Medbay on their downtime?

Can we just replace Ross with Lady Bunny as a judge? After that Christmas special, he’s dead to me..

I love bunny she talks a lot of sense and she’s been around long enough to have experienced every single thing that happened back in in the day

LOOOOVE THIS INTERVIEW! THANKS FOR DOING AND SHARING IT!

So Ready For that book!!'

The thing with Drag Race now is that they have a lot of kids with surgeries and pretty faces but little talent if we compare it with the first rounds of seasons...

Preach Lady Bunny! The couch audience needs to stop judging and hating time to start perpetuating acceptance.

Love Lady Bunny ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Talented, whip smart and unapologetic!

Queen Mama Bunny speaks truth!! We love and appreciate you so much Bunbun! The most dignified queen in all of Drag. ;-)

Milks drag is amazing, Milk as a person represented on Allstars 3 is terrible

I love that Lady has her gripes with RPDR and even Ru himself, but she's supportive of the queen's, works with them, DJs at some of Ru's events, and can remember the past queens BETTER THAN RU CAN. an icon. (this sounds like I'm dissing Ru, but that's not my intent. oops.)

Preach Lady Bunny! I was at Backstreets in Atlanta back the late 80’s early nineties. Variety makes it better! 🌹❤️🌹

The more I see Lady Bunny, the more I realize that Trixie is slowly turning into Lady Bunny 😂😂 or at least, adopting her look! I'm not mad at it tho!

It's called arm chair thinking. You know, you just sit and judge things that you don't do. Lady Bunny, I've been to a short show in Denver and I love you for saying that we are not all meant to be the same. That has been keeping me alive for the last few years.

This is a really great interview. Never heard her views on these great issues. She so honest and so kind - heart of gold. Love from Iceland

I freaking LOVE Lady Bunny! She’s always been amazing and hilarious 💜

I remember about 10 years ago, I was in a taxi in the west village, when I saw Lady Bunny running across the street and around a corner. Was like seeing a real live unicorn! 🦄 loved it!!!

Super interesting what she says about what a narrow view RPDR gives including the desire for drama and gossip that isn’t even what it would normally be about.

My idol, and icon. I had the pleasure of working with Bunny, and I adore her so much!! One of the best queens in the world!! Love my Bun-Bun!!

The fact that you reference Millie Jackson makes me revere you Bunny. Amazing. Great interviewing by Even, as usual.

Lady Bunny just told all the true. I´m a black Drag Queen in Germany, doing my thing for over 14 years and still get backlashed or bad treated because i don't have the "Ru Gurls" standards(?) or appearance(!). But `´m still in the business after all this years....

Omg that's what I call a living legend long life to bunny greetings from Puerto rico

She's so fricking right

"I jumped in a horse and buggy..." OMG lol

Excellent interview. Lively and full of substance the whole way through.

I had to come back and rewatch this during these miserable times. I needed joy in my life. Thanks Bunny 💕😷😍

A great interview, I have a lot of new respect for Lady Bunny! As a 15 year old gay boy, I aim to support my local drag scene one day, and get the real experience of drag

"Develop your own thing" Never has a truer word been spoken. That will be refreshing to see.

Watching this back from 2024, it is wild to me that the biggest drama drag culture was encountering 5 years ago was Milk's androgyny.

That was soooo much T!! Lady Bunny saying that Ru does not make her outfits, does not do her own hair and makeup or accessaries. But she judges other people who do all that themselves. I realize Ru has worked long and hard and deserves to be where she is at. Now she can afford the luxury of having things done for her and done well. Shout out Delta and Raven. Lots of Love and kindness.

To be fair, these are the girls Ru is casting so in a way Ru really does control the image of drag in a sense.

Skinny (legs) Legend

This interview was everything and the questions for her were really well thought out!

Even, the interviewer, did a great job here. He saw that Bunny was giving him gold and knew to just sit back and let her monologue. Great interview.

About time Bunny gets her place in Rupaul's dragrace. I want to hear her opinion....,who gives a shit about what Ross Matthews or Carson Kressley have to say. Really.

Fantastic interview!

Lady Bunny gives me life!

Ok, about minute 21...I really like the guy interviewing Bunny, he's attentive, he's not putting himself in front of everything, and all. Buuut...you really did ask the same question for the 3rd time now just in a different way. No hate, just trying to be constructive ^^ All in all I really love this interview! Good questions and Bunny is fantastic! I never knew her really except from Drag Racers talking about her. Like it. She's smart and she knows what she's talking about. And she's funny of course :D
