Dressed in a black jacket that was covered with pro-LGBTQIA+ patches on it, Melissa jokingly asked, “Does anybody want a Babybel?” before tossing tiny cheese packets to the queens.
Before leaving, Melissa got emotional as she shared some powerful words of encouragement with the queens.
“I just adore you all, I adore what you do,” Melissa shared. “Drag is a big part of why I have a career. I was going to drag shows when I shouldn’t have been, and it literally gave me the courage to get up on stage. I started in drag, I started in a big old red wig called Miss Y.”
“So, when I look at you fighting to carve out your space, it makes me so proud, and I just want to thank you for it and root for you,” Melissa continued. “You’re all gorgeous ladies, and I just love you. Just keep doing what you’re doing; it’s not only wildly entertaining and it brings joy, it’s important. Fight for it, because it’s worth it.”
Melissa has been a big support of the LGBTQIA+ and drag communities and last year, shared how the world of drag influenced her role as Ursula in the live-action The Little Mermaid.
New episodes of RuPaul’s Drag Race air on Friday nights at 8pm ET on MTV.
