Which Queens Are Being Rumored For 'RuPaul' Season 8?
In an interview with Huffington Post on Monday, Season 7 contestant Katya mentioned something that could be beneficial to drag queens who might be on the series in Season 8. Whether someone wants to make it on the show or just be a "Russian bisexual transvestite hooker" in the future, Katya said it's important to stay healthy and not pay attention to what's going on in the world.
"Brush your teeth, do your stretches, and don't read the news or watch TV," she said. "Ignorance is not only bliss, but it keeps the skin tight and fresh."

As a drag performer, Katya life is filled with enticing moments, sometimes including strange gifts from fans. She revealed a present that someone gave her, which came with a bizarre outcome.
"At a meet and greet in a nightclub in Texas a girl who looked about 15-years-old gave me a copy of Adventures In Babysitting and she whispered in my ear that it's really just home movie footage of her dad practicing judo," Katya said. "Then she stuck her middle finger in her mouth and walked away."
Katya came in at fifth place in the seventh season of the reality competition.
RuPaul's Drag Race Season 8 is expected to premiere in spring 2016 on Logo TV.
