On Saturday, Edge On The Net posted an interview with Mantle where the contestant revealed what it was like to be part of the competititon.
"I'm the type of person [where] a gig is a gig," Mantle said. "It's one of many television gigs. I had a great time and it was a lot of fun. I knew the first challenge was a sewing challenge and that was going to be the biggest challenge for me as I have never even picked up a needle and thread. I shop at Neiman's."

As the first contestant to be eliminated, Mantle explained what that difficult experience was like.
"It's interesting and as it was happening, I couldn't process it fast enough," Mantle said. "What I am taking from this is that I faced the biggest fear, every RuPaul's contestant biggets fear, and that is to be [the] first eliminated. I am still standing and surviving, and I wrote a song called 'Eliminated' and released the video on YouTube the night of the premiere, and in one night it's gotten over 5,000 views."
With the drag race out of the way, Mantle still has plans for her future career.
"I am in a movie called 'Confessions of a Womanizer' with Gary Busey and C. Thomas Howell, which comes out soon, and I am very excited about [it]," Mantle said. "As I mentioned above, I released my song yesterday called 'Eliminated' and my album is coming out in a few months. I am also excited about all the live shows I will be performing around the country, and to meet all the fans."
