Honestly, I havent even had a minute to myself, she says.

In a way, thats how she wants it, though.

Days after her win, shes in the same mind-set.

Its been over a decade since season two, and a lot had changed.

I felt like this time I could really pay attention to who I am.

For me, that started with the Rumerican Horror Story acting challenge.

I would much rather win something that I didnt know I was good at it.

That would mean more to me than just trying to justify something I already knew.

When we were going over the different roles, Jessica seemed like the most close to home to me.

So, it was a challenge within myself too.

The first time that I did a split [again] was on that stage during the lip sync.

Christina Aguilera, Dirrty, that song gets everybody going.

And I said, Honey, its an old drag secret, we use spray adhesive.

That stuff was glued to these titties.

One of the other moments that was exciting to see from you was the Dolly Parton Snatch Game.

I knew that if I came back, that is something that I could not fail at.

And I just could not think about who I would actually do.

I was like,Wait a minute, no ones ever done Dolly.

Im country as hell.

That was the first time I ever did Dolly, on that set.

[Laughs] I was like, Oh, really!

That is such a small part of who I am, Im so much more interesting than those things.

I am a tomboy, but I love being super-girly, you know?

I wanted to embrace every part of me.

Thats just personal life, drag is fun.

[That challenge] let me do something I never got to do.

Thats really the pat on the back that I needed, was the true fans of Aerosmith.

I just needed to get to know myself a little bit better and get comfortable in my own skin.

Theres nothing better than winning when youre 100 percent authentic with yourself.

I dont think I was ready then.

I was one of the first people to come out as trans on TV, period.

But at the end of the day, me being transgender is not the most interesting thing about me.
