In an honest and, at times, heartbreaking new interview with Gay Star News, RuPaul‘s Drag Race alum Laganja Estranja is spilling major tea on the show that helped propel her into stardom. And we can’t say we entirely blame her. Asked whether she would ever consider returning to All Stars, Laganja says producers approach her every season and she always turns them down.

And now an announcement from a season ten standout has people certain she’ll appear on season five of Drag Race All Stars.
