MELINDA MELTDOWN :: This week’s Canada’s Drag Race saw the elimination of the queen who gave us such good Drag Race drama: Melinda “I Quit!” Verga. We spoke to Verga the morning after her TV elimination, who talked all about her infamous, iconic hissy fit; starting her drag career late (at 37); what the queer scene in Edmonton is like; what she learned about herself from doing Canada’s Drag Race, and what she meant when she exited, saying Drag Race had taught her to find happiness even in the toughest moments. See our conversation, below.
Watch this space Tuesday, when we bring you our conversations with the Top Four, then on Friday when we sit down with the winner of Canada’s Drag Race Season 4.
