this is such a good idea. i dont think id ever listen to a drag queens story as willingly as listening to sharon needles. shes been through so much! i love hearing about it
+darin ak agreed, i was shocked Bianca won the "Best winner of the series," granted Bianca is great - i feel that due to season 4 airing in 2012, and season 6 airing in 2014 it was just more relevant Sharon is awesome.
This interview reminded me of why I fell in love with Sharon Needles when RPDR S4 aired back in 2012. Such an insightful, interesting queen. Great interview.
Sharon you sneaky sneaky lady. . " and thats when i met the love of my life. . . . . . . . . . . Pittsburgh. . " we all thought she was gonna say Alaska . . . especially since it was prefaced by why she moved to Pennsylvania
The reason Sharon won partly to do with the fact that she went in with no expectations of doing well or winning - because of that she didn’t edit or drag for the competition therefore she was the most authentic and endearing in the season- whereas phi phi was just trying so hard and really wanted to win and ultimately that went against her
Wow, Sharon is an amazing interview! She gives you everything and is a great story teller. I loved hearing about her past... I never knew any of that and it was so fascinating. She has come a very long way. Good for her! I met her at DragCon last year. I didn't intend to... I was actually afraid that she was going to be judgmental and stuck up, for some stupid reason in my head. But, I saw her off to the side smoking a cigarette and we had a lighthearted chat... what a charmer, she is! After that, she stole my heart and became my favorite. So, in case anyone is wondering.... she's fabulous IRL, too :)
For someone who dropped out of school and lived in the streets she is super intelligent and we'll read and retains history so well and that's why I like her
i don't know if other people feel like this, but i think sharon's just so magnificent when she's talking about her life. i'm not sure if i feel this way because i'm just an almost-not-a-tennager-anymore who's too old for a lot of things and haven't done shit about my life in the way she did. i feel like she's been everwhyere, found freedom in the most hauting it can be, found fame and beauty and created art just because of her thoughts and the things she likes and now she's a mark that will live forever in the drag world. the way she grew makes me really sentimental and inspired. hope i can get a little piece of sharon needles in me too.
Statistically Sharon, Jinkx & Bianca are the strongest winners, Sharon won 4 main challenges, Jinkx was in the Top 3 for 8 consecutive weeks and also won 2 main challenges & Bianca never even once fell in the bottom 3 and also won 3 main challenges. Chad & Alaska are also good, both winning 3 challenges in a row (on all stars ofc)
i can really notice jonny a has taken comments as advice like for example jonny dressing better (professionally) and letting the guest talk and take the spotlight , all in all really outstanding episode!!!!
It amazes me how many performing queens are ignorant of so much drag culture. How can you be unaware of Divine, or the Warhol girls? It's so much richer than pageant queen culture and it's helpful to gay culture as a whole. No better message than 'Let your freak flag fly'.
This has to be the best episode of Hey Qween EVAH!!!!!! Sharon Needles remains one the finest ever performers from RPDR. Heavily laden with charisma and talent.
I Simply cannot get enough of Jonny McGovern. He is SO entertaining and wow, what a fascinating interview with Sharron! GREAT show! Thank you to all who produce it! Loving you guys over here in France. * Bisous*
Quality decent interview! Way better than watching any main stream celebrity interview. Refreshing to listen to someone who actually has something decent to say and be so real.
This is one of the best interviews ever! I have always enjoyed Sharron but I was never a superfan-- now I totally am. She is so smart and honest and a truly talented, self aware performer . Johnny thank you for this wonderfully led interview. I am so happy that this show s back and I love the new set and singers and Lady Red you are even more stunning of a Goddess!
Love this interview. So real and down to earth. Cracking the beer on set was genius. I LOVED IT! Great reality check about reality TV. So much respect for her. YASSSS Death Cube!
I love the intro! I hope you add it to all future episodes! Sharon always gives really great interviews! It felt a little awkward at first, but I am so glad she did it! I also love the Look at Huh segments where she throws some serious tea and some unexpected shade.
I need Sharon to write a book! I'm so intrigued by her, she's the definition of a true punk rebel! I still can't get over how fascinated I am with her. She speaks volumes to me
LOVE Sharon Needles! Loved that there were so many dimensions to her personality! Very funny and also once the other queens allowed her to be, very supportive to others and kind. One of the best seasons and my favourite winner so far. I am one of the people who is in a country which used to get RuPaul's Drag Race (UK) but somebody in their wisdom (THEM up there on their cloud) decided not to pay for any more seasons after Season 3. I am a straight woman but I love and admire the artistry and imagination that goes into drag! If I could even do my make up half as good as they do....Thank god for RUclips but now even this is not allowing the latest season to be shown.
This was a great episode. I'm so happy Johnny didn't talk over her the whole time. Also, why must these be edited? It's an online show. Post the entire interview.
Thank the LORDT you episode is back to being longer. I hate shorter episodes so much because I'm always gagging for more. LOVE YOU GUYS :) You make my work morning!!! +HeyQween
I am so excited about this new season. Everybody looks, sounds, jitters so good! Lady Red is all the treasures of springtime dressed as a succulent chocolate bunny in bright Easter-colored regalia. Mr. McGovern radiates charm, as usual, but now in the most princely purple. Best wishes for a new season!
no shade but it's honestly so weird how e.g. Madame LaQueer got on season 4 but Alaska didn't.... like what??? It would have been an even crazier season if Sharon and Alaska had been there together.
Sharon Needles helped Alaska and Aquaria blossom. Wow girl, you are one star incubator while being star yourself! You go girl! Sharon is not my favorite drag queen to be honest, but I have huge respect for her cause she works hard and that is visible! She is in the spotlight and she won like 6 seasons ago or something? RESPECT!
Once again Sharon reminds me why ive became such a big Drag fan. As a victim of consistent mental illness discrimination, social anxiety and bullying, The concept of being able to create another more exerted, flamboyant part of you, that doesnt have to feel ashamed, embarrassed or in hatred of yourself, just you doing you with camp-ness, skill , colourfulness, humour (and in Sharon's case) *Punk f*cking rock* inspires me on a daily basis.
Love sharon and interview is so her. Like shes charming and entertaining and smart but also drunk and arrogant and getting in her own way. I'm glad she's pushing through but I always expect more from her.
I've been sitting here for 15 mins just watching the intro on replay; the 1st time I actually cut a 2 step when the beat dropped. Bless Him for the rainbows and the rhinestones!
Sharon needs to write an autobiography, she's so smart and interesting but at the same time gracious.
Yes
"Booing is just an applause from the ghosts"
this is such a good idea. i dont think id ever listen to a drag queens story as willingly as listening to sharon needles. shes been through so much! i love hearing about it
AGREE!
She's so well spoken and intelligent, I could listen to her forever!
Yeah
sharons alaska voice is EVERYTHING
+Holly Rebecca Yeah Sharon should really quit riding Alaska's tails someday.
+Holly Rebecca what time is it?
+cheeseisgod111298 17:21
Yesss it was so good!
+ggfanjase thanks!
I love how Sharon won 4 seasons ago and is still relevant.
DID ANYONE READ THE DESCRIPTION AND SEE ALL THE FUCKING AMAZING PEOPLE COMING TO SEASON!?!?!
+stephanie cohen *THIS SEASON*
+stephanie cohen did you see that they only wrote kasha Davis it's MRS KASHA DAVIS, SHE IS A MARRIED LADY
+stephanie cohen Yeah. You keep telling her that.
+stephanie cohen BEST.OBSERVATION. EVER!
TOP 3 WINNERS
3. Sharon Needles
2. Raja
1. Bianca Del Rio
+Mitchell Kimbrough not a single lie!
+Mitchell Kimbrough Yeah, I love them all, but objectively speaking Bianca is number 1. I would also add Jinkx to the list.
Dalsemien Jinkx was great, but she didn't have as strong of a season as Bianca & Raja.
literally my exact list 🔥🔥
YES I couldn't agree more. My top 3 for sure.
Sharon killed season 4 she is the most deserving winner of rpdr
+darin ak I think raja was really serving it, too! But I mean... every winner deserves to be a winner in some way :)
+javon cinnimin sticks williams lol thats a good comment to have at the top of the comment stream. see you next tuesday!
+darin ak agreed, i was shocked Bianca won the "Best winner of the series," granted Bianca is great - i feel that due to season 4 airing in 2012, and season 6 airing in 2014 it was just more relevant
Sharon is awesome.
+willy head also Chad. All stars. Sharon was a true winner. Even if she didn't win season 4 she would have won all stars.
I wanted Latrice to win season 4 :(
WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THOSE LEGS??? GORGEOUS
captivating
this is one of the best sharon interviews ever!!!!!! love it and love the alaska impression lol
Omg I know, I wanted more of that lol
swimmchick21 OMG your profile picture 😂😻
Sharon was a delight. Very charming and intelligent interview.
This interview reminded me of why I fell in love with Sharon Needles when RPDR S4 aired back in 2012. Such an insightful, interesting queen. Great interview.
Sharon you sneaky sneaky lady. . " and thats when i met the love of my life. . . . . . . . . . . Pittsburgh. . "
we all thought she was gonna say Alaska . . . especially since it was prefaced by why she moved to Pennsylvania
Would've been a little inappropriate to say with her fiancé sitting in the audience, lmao. I still live for Shalaska though.
agreed, but she was using some word play on us ;)
Call Me Witcher would've cried if she said that like

It took me couple years that Sharon's name was a pun meaning sharing needles
woah... still had no clue
+Ceka Rez YOU OPENED MY EYES
+Ceka Rez OMG is these real life? I've never noticed it!!
+Ceka Rez oh I always just thought it was because it's the closest name to Aaron.
+Izzy Foster me too
Love Sharon she is so smart, articulate and interesting.
For someone who dropped out of school and lived in the streets she is super intelligent and we'll read and retains history so well and that's why I like her
I feel like I'm going to hell for liking the intro of them mocking the gospel and the Holy Spirit lol
Where?
Nina Bo'nina Brown HEY BITCHHH
*nina bonina jasmine masters brown* HEY BITCH
ahahaha right
Sue me lol
i don't know if other people feel like this, but i think sharon's just so magnificent when she's talking about her life. i'm not sure if i feel this way because i'm just an almost-not-a-tennager-anymore who's too old for a lot of things and haven't done shit about my life in the way she did. i feel like she's been everwhyere, found freedom in the most hauting it can be, found fame and beauty and created art just because of her thoughts and the things she likes and now she's a mark that will live forever in the drag world. the way she grew makes me really sentimental and inspired. hope i can get a little piece of sharon needles in me too.

Alaska won 4 in total with one time in the bottom
Sharon is such an intelligent person, I could hear her talking all day
Sharon is a real inspiration. Intelligent, beautiful and creative. I'm always impressed by her
Sharon is giving us all Kelly Bundy. Gorgeous.
+C@ndidK I'll get my eyes tested when you go back to elementary school.
+Hazel Eleanor I thought the same exact thing when watching this.
I see it too.
+Hazel Eleanor Kelly Bundy is one of her idols haha.
They really do favor! I was looking for the comments!
Please tell me there is a book in the works... such a wonderful storyteller, I was absolutely captivated.
This was actually a really good interview. I enjoyed this episode a lot
i can really notice jonny a has taken comments as advice like for example jonny dressing better (professionally) and letting the guest talk and take the spotlight , all in all really outstanding episode!!!!
This interview gave me a whole new level of respect for Sharon, love this queen
I was so disappointed that Adam didn't introduce Sharon with the "Don't share your needles with Sharon Needles" song.
It amazes me how many performing queens are ignorant of so much drag culture. How can you be unaware of Divine, or the Warhol girls? It's so much richer than pageant queen culture and it's helpful to gay culture as a whole. No better message than 'Let your freak flag fly'.

she looks beautiful and is so incredible talented, intelligent and well-spoken.
i love her
I luv Sharon's pronunciation of "epitome."
saaaame
LOVE Sharon Needles! Loved that there were so many dimensions to her personality! Very funny and also once the other queens allowed her to be, very supportive to others and kind. One of the best seasons and my favourite winner so far. I am one of the people who is in a country which used to get RuPaul's Drag Race (UK) but somebody in their wisdom (THEM up there on their cloud) decided not to pay for any more seasons after Season 3.

i am OBSESSED with this interview i've watched it 3 times
So pumped for the new season! Met both Jonny and Lady Red and they were absolutely the nicest people.
I wish Sharon will realize just how awesome she is. She and Alaska are my all time favorites. Byeeeee
Thank the LORDT you episode is back to being longer. I hate shorter episodes so much because I'm always gagging for more. LOVE YOU GUYS :) You make my work morning!!! +HeyQween
I've learned to much about Sharon because of this, I love her even more!!
Jonny is back finally.
Thx from Brazil.
This show just gets better everyday, love you guys!
I could listen to her talk all day. So much more than just spook house glamour.
Sharon is still my everything! Love her 4ever.
YOU GUYS
Loved this episode, Sharon has such interesting stories & tells them so well.
its been years but i could legit listen to Sharon talk forever
OMG you guys are back.
I'm so happy
"On a channel that nobody has." Fucking true though, thank god for the internet or I would never even know drag race existed.
Sharon has inspired me for 5yrs. Her honesty and intelligence is awesome. Can't wait to see what's next
the new intro is EVERYTHING
I am so excited about this new season. Everybody looks, sounds, jitters so good!
Lady Red is all the treasures of springtime dressed as a succulent chocolate bunny in bright Easter-colored regalia.
Mr. McGovern radiates charm, as usual, but now in the most princely purple. Best wishes for a new season!
no shade but it's honestly so weird how e.g. Madame LaQueer got on season 4 but Alaska didn't.... like what??? It would have been an even crazier season if Sharon and Alaska had been there together.
Omg thank you ,y'all are back and better than ever ❤️❤️❤️💋
Oml "Go back to party city bitch" when Sharon did that I died 😂
Sharon Needles helped Alaska and Aquaria blossom. Wow girl, you are one star incubator while being star yourself! You go girl! Sharon is not my favorite drag queen to be honest, but I have huge respect for her cause she works hard and that is visible! She is in the spotlight and she won like 6 seasons ago or something? RESPECT!
Such a smart, informed, sensitive, honest person - as well as the great Sharon Needles.
I hope she stays healthy, or gets healthier!
omg what a cute episode! Thank you 😍
I love it could listen to Sharon has to say for hours!!!!
I am living for that introduction yaaaaaaasssss💁🏼
oH my goodness that's Erickatoure and One Half Nelson under those costumes isn't it 👍
+Wing ϟ yes
my rpdr obsession in the beginning was simultaneous w/ my sharon needles obsession. Only queen I had bought merchandise from lol
Once again Sharon reminds me why ive became such a big Drag fan.

I didn't know anything about Sharron before this, but she brought out PBR and I was like.... love.
Sharon is so hot omg in and out of drag
Love sharon and interview is so her. Like shes charming and entertaining and smart but also drunk and arrogant and getting in her own way. I'm glad she's pushing through but I always expect more from her.
This was one of the best interviews of Hey Qween, Sharon really spilled the T !!
I've been sitting here for 15 mins just watching the intro on replay; the 1st time I actually cut a 2 step when the beat dropped. Bless Him for the rainbows and the rhinestones!
SHARON'S IMPERSONATION OF ALASKA >>>>>>>>
I love the intro. It gets me EVERY TIME.
Loved! Living for Sharon!
Listening to this has fully reminded me of all the reasons I fell in love with Sharon in the first place.
Sharon reminds me of Kelly Bundy with this look. I can picture Katya dressed as Peggy, sitting next to her.
People in South Africa want to watch more amazing drag performers like Sharon! Would LOVE it if the BOTS tour made a stop here.
I would move to America to be in that audience everyday
I absolutely ADORE Ms. Sharon!
I could listen to her talking all day😍😍😍😍
man Sharon's legs..damn, hot af. Also she grew so much.
So happy season 4 is here! Love you Jonny and Lady Red!
