"I think if I did stop doing drag, I’d have to move out of Dublin. Because you’re always going to be a drag queen to everyone. I know drag queens who stopped doing drag about five, six years ago and they still get called by their drag name, everyone knows them as a drag queen. That’s not what I want if I leave drag. So if next year if I do quit I’ll say “goodbye Dublin. Time to go somewhere where no-one knows my past life”. Not that I’m ashamed of doing drag, obviously I’m not, but if I’m not doing it anymore … I don’t really want to be known for it. There’s so much of your personal life that gets fucked up because of you doing drag. It’s so hard to form actual relationships – friendship wise or romantic – when you do drag. Especially on the scene, everybody wants to be your friend because they think because you’re a drag queen you’re so much fun then they get to know you and they realise you’re really boring. And I don’t want to have to deal with that."
