“This is iconic”: Fans react to Chappell Roan meeting Drag Race winner Sasha Colby
POP EMERGENCY: Chappell Roan has finally met Sasha Colby, and fans are buzzing. Since getting her big break in the music sphere, the emerging talent has consistently used her platform to praise and uplift the drag community, especially the Drag Race season 15 winner.
In May 2024, the ‘Red Wine Supernova’ singer named Sasha as her favourite drag queen, adding that beloved performer inspired her iconic “I’m your favourite artist’s favourite artist” Coachella moment. “She famously said, ‘I’m your favourite drag queen’s favourite drag queen.’ Me saying ‘I’m your artist’s favorite artist at Coachella was a nod to her, how much I admire her, and how much drag is intertwined with my project.
She is everythinggg 2 me,” she wrote. A month later, Chappell gave further insight into the impact Sasha’s phrase has had on her during an appearance on The Tonight Show. “It just hit me through the heart, and so I was like, ‘I hope Sasha Colby one day watches me, and that’s why I said it,” she added.
