OK, so maybe she skirts around the reference entirely, but the line of questioning from the Advocate still amused me greatly:

RuPaul’s Drag Race on Logo is clearly inspired by Top Model, and RuPaul has even instructed contestants to be “hotter than Tyra wearing a fat suit in July.” But if a drag queen really wanted to emulate you, what would be your best advice?

The key to a drag queen doing me is overdoing me. You’ve got to go all the way over the top, times 10. First of all, get a honey brown weave or wig, some green contact lenses, and some big-ass chicken cutlets to stuff the bra. You also need a killer runway walk, but that weave has to be fly. The bigger the better, but quality is key -- no cheap weave hair! And always be ready to smile with your eyes -- “smize” -- at the drop of a hat.
