Memorable Quotes

Drag Race España Season 1

  • "Mi estilo drag es... como si cogieras una Barbie, unas tetas de plástico y un Teletubbie y los metieras en una lavadora y lo mezclamos todo. Al sacarlo, salgo yo. Soy como un arcoíris que sale del culo de una musculoca." (In the Meet The Queens)
  • "Yo he sido limpiadora, he sido de mantenimiento, he sido de logística, he sido recepcionista. Tengo más trabajo que la Barbie. Yo siempre, siempre, siempre estoy dispuesta a pegarme una risa y a trabajar. La que vale, vale, cariño. " (In the Meet The Queens)
  • "Yo a Drag Race he venido a reirme, a pasármelo bien, a cortarle el cuello a una hija de puta que me hable malamente y a robar todas las cosas que pueda." (In the Meet The Queens)
  • "¿Qué pasa, maricones? He traído chicharrones." (entrance quote)
  • "Necesito una manzanilla, porque lo mismo me hago caca."
  • "¡Ay que ver, ay que ver! ¡Con la pechá de coser que me he metido, maricón! ¡Y con la pechá de avión que me he metido de venir desde Jerez de la Frontera! ¿A ti te parece normal? ¿A ti te parece normal que me hagáis esto? No me cago, no me cago porque estamos en la tele. Me parece muy fuerte, ¡muy fuerte me parece! ¿Y sabéis que os digo? ¡Que me váis a comer el coño!" (exit quote)
