Raja Breaks Down Her Drag Career, RuPaul's All Stars & Fashion Photo RuView | Them 

To me, Raja’s “ugly cry” represents the last genuine reaction to winning the crown, it’s such a beautiful moment.

she's a legend, she's an eye-con and she is the moment. cmon NOW.

I really appreciate that newer drag race fans are really connecting to Raja as a result of All Stars 7.

Oh, what a soft-spoken person she is! Could literally listen to her for hours. And also, there is a lot of wisdom in everything she's talking about. I love that combination

"She didn't abbreviate" 😂 the editors are so good

Everybody say "thank you" to Raja, Drag Race became a high fashion runway because of her, she walked so queens everyone loves today could run.

I remember being 12 and searching for “drag racing” trying to find nascar but ended up finding the premiere of her season, and I’m so thankful I did 🥹 10+ years later seeing her again on my tv, such a full circle and re-inspiring moment.

I love what Bob the Drag Queen says about her 'other girls use references, Raja is the reference' she's so beyond anything else. Her laser dress in the 'All Glowed Up' runway... Masterpiece

Ugh I love Raja so much. She’s a legend. She deserves so much success.

everything she says is so wise. can tell she really enjoys and cares about what she does as an artist. she’s such an inspiration to me, i look up to her so much. i’ll be just like you raja i swear

It's even weird to see Raja competing, she's so beyond, so professional, she already has proved herself as an unique artist to be one of the official and permanent judges along with Ru and MIchelle and to have a program of her own (as she already greatly did). I adored her in her season, love her now and ever!

“She did not abbreviate” - the shade lol. Raja describing her experience on the Simpsons is so pure 💜

Raja means SO MUCH to me, representing for the brown asian kids and being such an icon. We simply have to stan!

Nobody ever talks about what an absolutely stunning creature Raja is out of drag. They're GORGEOUS.

No, Raja your cry was NOT ugly. That’s pretty much impossible. You are one of the most gorgeous people I’ve ever seen. Then and now, in and out of drag - you’re a stunner! Moreover your personality and energy is just as beautiful. You are loved by so many 🥰

Raja SHOULD have been in the top two for her Snatch game. Legendary, just like her.

Just one of the most exquisite creatures to ever walk this earth. Cannot get enough of her.

I’ve been going to her shows since ….. back when she was baby drag queen .. in the early 90s she looked like a supermodel . Everybody knew Raja in LA …Madonna or Janet would sometimes walk into the club .. it was amazing times .

She’s literally on Rupauls level , she’s an ICON

Raja is one of those people in this world that makes my heart so full whenever she comes up. She is such a treasure

Raja is so wise. And her voice? Divine.

After how many seasons of Drag Race, Raja is still my favorite winner ever. ♥♥♥

"I wanted to be that person kids could look up to" if I can say anything with 100% certainty, Auntie Raja is someone many of us look up to. We love you and respect you more than many in our own families.

The peace and confidence she carries within herself is so awe-inspiring. This is the most honest and vulnerable I’ve ever heard Raja speak. She said I am not perfect, but I am an icon. She is absolutely that. Stan Raja forever ❤️

I spoke with her on the phone, she is genuinely such a kind soul. Her advice to me was to be kind and celebrate my queerness. Without her advice, my high school years would have been so much harder. I hope i get to meet her in person one day and let her know how much she helped me.

THE ICON, THE GODDESS, THE IDOL, THE DIVA, THE BEING, THE KING, THE QUEEN, THE VIBE, THE PAST, THE NOW, THE FOREVER...Raja

I love how grounded Raja is in the way she speaks about things. Like with her music video - “that was a hose, that was a leaf blower” lol. I love her message of authenticity and that art is what you make of it ❤️

What an articulate, kind human being. She’s so reflective and appreciative of each of her experiences, regardless of their outcomes. Complete legend and a beautiful soul.

I really love the fact that she took credit for her input in the industry. It’s important to recognise who you are

I wasn't very attached to Raja back in her og season, but now I'm totally in love with her personality, her aesthetic and her beauty. Something about her hits different for me now, she just seems ethereal somehow.

Jinkx and Raja should be the ones with the most stars so far in All Stars 7. They have both been slaying.

I remember watching ANTM as a teen, and loving Sutan because of his humor, love of fashion, and his queerness. After he left the show, I wondered where he went to, and that's how I discovered Drag Race in 2010. I'm so happy to have been a fan for so long. I've met him twice and both times were magical. I'm so happy for all of Raja's success.

I love her, she makes ridiculous things look good and she can walk the runway with anything and still looks gorgeous!

Raja is so extraordinary. She’s in a league of her own, definitely someone who inspires me in multiple ways. She should write a book 😊

I love Raja and her drag but I also love her attitude and her outlook on life 💕 She's so chill and sweet but she also isn't afraid to speak her mind and be herself. She's been open about smoking weed for awhile lol. She's also come up with some of the most creative and iconic looks on Drag Race. I think my favorite Raja look is still the iconic Marie Antoinette look from S3.

I LOVE Raja, she represents the soul of Drag, what's underneath all of the makeup and performance. She is pure art.

They gotta bring back Raja Drawja!!!!

Always love Raja, she is beautiful inside and out and speaks with wisdom, clarity, kindness and a sense of style and history of which she is a part. A legend!

She is an ICON, she is a LEGEND and she is the MOMENT

Raja will forever be an inspiration for me such talented person and genuine, I got the chance to meet raja in Drag-con I believe 2016 and I was freaking out because I just admire it so much as a queen and artist many years back even before drag race anyways, I started talking Spanish because I was in Panic mode (Spanish is my first language) and Raja just calm me down talk to me in Spanish and give me the biggest hug plus took a picture with me … the most precious soul !!! After this I decide it was the time to quit my job and start the career I always wanted as a makeup artist and I never looked back definitely the happiest years of my life !!

That’s a Vivienne Westwood set she’s wearing, so iconic!

this interview almost made me cry. I loved every bit of it

Raja is the queen that made me love drag and the art that comes with it. She’s just a legendary icon and I really really adore her. I also stan Sutan Amrull. That person is genuinely one of the coolest people I’ve ever seen. 🥺♥️

Such an honorable, expressive, and respectable person. Raja’s influence is far reaching and their ability to continually inspire many should never be overlooked. I’m so grateful to be living in this era of freedom and creativity, makes me very excited for the future.

it's weird to see her so understated. I'm used to seeing her incredibly out doing everyone. Raja will always be my fav. I think it's her motherly/calm/advice like personality.

It's so touching to see Raja be genuinely and humbly grateful for all the fabulousness a long and successful Drag career has brought to her life.

Raja pls make your own RU-vid Channel, we want more of you!

"She did not abbreviate" love the sassy editing! What an icon! My fave always 🥰🥰

Raja is the best of MODERN drag. She elevated the art.

Love u raja. I remember watching u on season 3 and now all stars. My grandma and me use to watch the show together and when she saw the trailer with u , she’s love watching your artistry

The amount of joy I felt when I saw the video was 15 minutes almost made me cry

Is anyone else as thrilled as I am that we get to see so much of the EYECON? What a joy to watch the legend remind remind these kids who she is. I may not be in a bad mood for the rest of 2022, maybe next year also.

I miss Raja on fashion photo ruview SO MUCH. Her insights are just not something anyone else can replicate. I think Roger tooting and booting herself and the queens she was competing against would have been hilarious.

I’ve loved her since ANTM. She’s definitely one of my favorite drag queens.

She’s my queen of queens. There’s always a grand excellence that Raja brings that I will never get over

She is a legend. You do not ask a legend to abbreviate, you bask in their presence.

Raja is just pure magic. Serious star quality.

RAJA IS A LEGEND!!

I love raja just has so much grace.

"She did not abbreviate" sent me into orbit 😭😭

I also grew up with Madame & Wayland. I love that Raja played her on Snatch Game.

the best part of this season was seeing how iconic and fierce raja remained after these years

She’s so articulate and eloquent when she speaks. And she speaks intently and always adds a metaphysical element in some way

When anyone says Drag, Raja will always be one of the first things that comes to my mind

I love Raja so much, I’m hoping AS7 brings her even more opportunities and success. I hope the entire world can see how incredible and talented she really is.

She's really such a well spoken, kind, kind of intimidating and nice person. I really wish to be more articulate in my speech like her.

I remember so clearly when she entered the week room for the first time, and immediately obsessed over her authenticity. She’s always been Raja, such a creative, warm and loving human being.

Beautiful, talented, immaculate, gorgeous, wise, soothsayer, witch, genius, goddess, supreme deity, etc

I am grateful for Raja.

Raja is the real definition of explicit fashion.♡!

I need more of this gorgeous human. My favourite Queen ever!❤️😭😭👑👑👑

She's been my all time favorite queen since season 3 💜🧿✨ Love that now she's getting all that recognition.

I love Raja, I’ve been her fan since season 3, OG fashion queen, so cool and effortless ❤️ PS: love her Vivienne Westwood outfit in this interview.

Raja I really love you... You inspire so many people for many years, I´m ver glad that you came back to Rupaul Drag Race to see you shine again

Raja is my spirit animal, love her!

raja is truly a force of nature. her love for creating art in general is so inspiring to me! she is so wise, and yet she still finds ways to grow as an artist. idk how else to say this, but she truly captures the essence of an artist. it just RADIATES.

Thank you editors for leaving in raja going "oh... God i hate this" lmfao

Raja don't even need that star on allstars because he is an actual legendary legend like I remember that episode of top model and he was so fierce and cool to me.

Love Raja she’s like a drag unicorn! Rare & Magical! She give me all the feels! ✨✨

Raja is an inspiration and icon to me, as someone who doesn’t feel like they belong, what she stands for really resonates within and I can’t thank Raja enough.

She is so sincere and sweet. She is my absolute favorite. Every time I think I can’t possibly fall more in love with Raja, I do!! ❤

Raja is different than the drag queens that go on Rupaul’s Drag Race today. He’s not just studied fashion he is fashion. He’s also got a refreshing honesty about himself. He doesn’t come over as entitled in any way. Unlike some of the more the recent queens who’ve won (Aquaria comes to mind ) he’s steeped in the history of drag,drag comedy and his own cutting edge fashion. I wonder if the winners of Rupaul’s Drag Race after season 8 will even be remembered in 5 years,I doubt it😳

I've always admired Raja, she is very talented, genuine, very forward thinking, smart and funny.

My favourite drag race queen of all time. So much admiration for this artist.

So classy and well spoken ❤️ and a gorgeous queen inside and out.

I never heard of drag until I seen Raja in pictures. Stunning person. She is my favorite one .

raja is just simply a a master at her craft, i live for miss rajz

I never see Raja do interviews! MUCH EXCITE

Raja is so inspiring!!! I love her and she is definitely a roll model 😊Much love to her 💕😍 Pretty much her mantra is "Be your-queer-self and do not apologize, enjoy live, laugh and love" Love this queen💕

Definitely saw myself as she walked into the werk room for the first time. I was catching up on Drag Race not too long ago and she made me cry the most helping me heal my inner weirdo child.

My favorite ever! Ever since I saw Raja on season 3, I was like oh my god, she's perfect. And not just the looks, the incredibile fashion sense, but the personality. Wish she was my best friend.

Raja is in my top 3 favorite drag race queens for sure. such a lovely person.

They are so attractive just straight up defying gender it’s insane

She DESERVED the win on that Snatch Game episode.

My fav Drag Queen of all time🥹🥹❤️❤️

I’m so enamored of her. Being her friend, or even just meeting her would be such a gift. Raja is elegance in a 6ft svelte package. I love her buttery caramel voice, her acerbic wit, and her wonderful sense of self. Viva La RAJA!

Raja is such an inspiration to a lot o people inside and outside the drag community. We love you Raja Gemini💗💗💗

Raja is legendary!!! Showing the world a more fashion queen esthetic beyond what many defined as drag at the time

I love her hair! She is amazing in every single angle, shape and artistry. A Legendary Queen!

LOVE YOU RAJA!!! Rebel, Genius, Sacred & True~ XXOOXX
