watching drag race season 9 and being absolutely GAGGED when sasha velour comes out in AUTHENTIC ukrainian clothes, not some шароварщина bullshit. like i knew she was of ukrainian descent but i didn't know she acknowledged it in any way. it was such a beautiful moment. and then rupaul calls it russian. like what if i killed myself right now

Rewatching S9 has made me realize that Peppermint has been through it. Being beat up in highschool, setting a kitchen on fire, detained in Moscow. And look where she is now one of the sweetest queens ever. I love Pep.

Somehow, someway.. Instagram didn’t transfer my posts over to tumblr 😬

So May 9th, I got to see the gorgeous, the beautiful, the phenomenal, Sasha Velour in NYC for The Big Reveal book tour-drag show!! 🤯🙌🏾

I wrote last year about how heartbroken I was that Sasha had to cancel their show, while I was sewing a costume for it. Well after a European tour, a hiatus, and a whole Book launch, she finally had another show in NYC!!

I finished the costume, and the gloves.. I decided I would cover the shoes at our hotel in NYC, because the show wasn’t until 8:30pm

Tell me why I get an email FROM the theater with Meet & Greet instructions, and what time to be there, huh?!

I called the theater to make sure because I wasn’t tryna show up and they were like, “oops, that’s a mistake,” and turn my ass around. They confirmed that my tickets were INDEED vip tickets. My stomach drops to my pinky toe, because what the fuck?! I’m about to meet Sasha?! 🤯

The clock says 3:15pm and we got 2 1/2 hours to get ready and get out of here. Our lil’ hotel room becomes a studio. Thread and lace and makeup and shit all over the place.

My husband is my armor bearer, doing anything and everything he can to get me out the door. He does my hair, helps with my makeup (because the lighting was so dim), cuts excess lace of my shoes, sews gloves on to my body without stabbing me, ran and grabbed us lunch, and I couldn’t even eat but a few bites, grabs us a Lyft, takes pictures and videos for me.. and so much more like I can not thank him ENOUGH!! (Also this was his first drag show and he loved it ❤️)

Soo we get to the theater, I change shoes, and I’m nervously sitting amongst other Velourian fans. My stomach drops as Johnny Velour (Sasha’s boo-thang) tells the usher that Sasha is ready to begin the M&G. They tell us to line up to the left behind the velvet rope. When we start moving Sasha comes out the stage doors in all her Kaleidoscope beauty and the room gasped like “omfg there she is!!”

I’m about to faint.. y’all… y’all.. in the flesh, in person, to the naked eye, Sasha is fucking GORGEOUS!! (Also she’s quite petite in person, I didn’t think I was bigger than her, lol)

Okay so getting closer in line, this lady and I are having nervous babbles to cope with these surprise VIP tickets.. and we watch Sasha sign someone’s titties! She goes up. I’m next up. Fuck me.

Johnny Velour turns to me to take my The Big Reveal book and steps back and he’s like, “Omg! Your outfit! I see what you did, I love it!” I tell him thank you and I appreciate it and then it’s my turn.. and Sasha is looking at me with her beautiful crystal blue eyes and wide open arms. Looking like a watercolor butterfly..

“Omg?! I can get a hug?” She hugs me. She smells so freaking good, I’m melting.. and her little corseted breasts pressed into my breasts! Please!!

She said she knew who I was. McScuse me, Bitch?!! And gave me such high praise on my outfit. She called me a Goddess, and raved over my covered shoes, and I babbled, after she said she loved me… She’s lucky my husband was there because *roof roof* she could’ve had me, lol. We prom pose for some photos, and then she signed my signed copy of the Big Reveal, and wrote that she loved me AGAIN, and hugged me tightly AGAIN!! and told me to get a snack.

I wobbled off and my husband was there to escort me back to my seat as I loudly proclaimed, “I DID IT!!” 💪🏾

And I did do it. I met Sasha and didn’t burst into fucking flames. Lol

The show was stunning, I had 2nd row seats, I could count Sasha’s lashes, I was so close. I snuck a few pictures, but I was mostly sitting in awe of her beauty! All her numbers are great.. I enjoyed the book readings with the home video clips, and the very profound and educational lecture with Alok Menon about her book, showing resistance and courage using the art of Drag.. I learned so much, my husband and I had great insightful talks about the future of our children after this show that spurned from Sasha’s childhood stories. I can’t wait to see what else she has up her sleeve down the road.

Alright, that’s enough of me thirsting 🥵

Please go see Sasha if she comes to a city near you!
