I love her. She has no game, no malicious intent, doesn't try to stab other queens in the back and doesn't step on others to get to the top. She doesn't put out the candles of others to make her's shine brighter. She's an unconscious comedienne and very talented dancer too.
She doesn't try to backstab anyone behind their back, she's a pure soul
Perfectly put .You are spot on . đđđđ
Even Trixie said she does not want beef with anyone
She really is a good example and inspiration for her students at the dance studio. She had a few confrontations with some of the queens, but she always stayed the bigger person, while those other queens embarrassed themselves. She has Jade Jolie to thank for her iconic « back rolls » moment tho. đ
100 he's a good person and I love that
A simple interview and Alyssa delivers 15 new quotes *i can't*
that's how we recognize a legend
EVERY SINGLE WORD IS ICONIC TBH
.........bodak yellow.
"edit it right' haha so good!
We only stan legends
"They said it was gonna Be gloomy today in Los Angles, I said that's fine, I'll be the ray of sunshine.... Bodak Yellow"
đđđđ
She is the proof you can be fiercely ambitious AND kind, loving and soft-hearted.
@Lucio MartĂnez oh god yes
her and Shangela will always the the STARS of drag race, the HAUS of Edwards is iconic.
laganja crying in the corner with his blunt
Runyang Yu *his*
Plastique ,Gia and Ganja are crying
@@yuhnosjuicyfatass1489 plastique will redeem herself someday.. hopefully
@@yuhnosjuicyfatass1489 Gia and Laganja are iconic in someway or another.
So happy Alyssa's getting the recognition she truly deserves!
she's a true queen even if she hasn't got a crown
Agreed!
My instant thought while watching this. Can't think of another queen more deserving tbh!
all
The real winner of allstars 2.
Alyssa Edwards is tied with Bianca Del Rio for being my favorite Drag Queen of all time. I have nothing but love, respect, and admiration for both of them. Theyâre both humble, hardworking, talented, and good hearted people. They deserve all of the blessings theyâve received and that they have yet to receive. I love you Alyssa Edwards, always and foreverđđ
Same
Lol. You think Bianca is humble.
Same! I love them both đ
Vanjee & Kennedy deserve honorable mentions.
Jailene Torres except one can dance
Thank you ALEXIS MATEO, Because without her we wouldnt have Alyssa Edwards and .......... MISS VANJIE, MISS VANJIE, MISS VANJIE
yeah i love alexis a lot too :)
Yes!! Alexis is so sweet too â€ïž
MISS... VANJIEE...đ
why Alexis though??
PSA!!! ALYSSA HAS HER OWN NEW NETFLIX SERIES COMING OUT YALL! TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THIS, I LIVE FOR THIS BEAST
How is the show called? I didn't know if I should get Netflix but damn now I definitely will!
@@mbbm1999 it's called Dancing Queen
Buttermilk Biscuit WHAAAAAAAT
WHATS IT CALLED WHENS IT START
@@coryjohns Thanks!
Alyssa is the most memorable queen in RPDR history â€ïž
shes definitely the most QUOTABLE queen
Sheâs fabulous with a larger than life personality.
Alexandra R. That should be gia xD
There are a few....but Alyssa is def one of themâ€ïž
tongue pop
So Miss Alexis Mateos not only gave birth to Miss Vanjiee, but she also gave us Alyssa and the Haus of Edwards? Miss thing, she is a legend, an icon and we stan forever. Also "don't forget to be gay" I'm totally going to tattoo this on my chest
She is just overflowing with charisma and personality. She knows she's a legend and there's not a moment that she doesn't let you know, but it never feels grating and she's still so gracious and humble. Ughh, so much love for this queen.
"This is a pageant on tv" đ I love her so much â€
the alyssa tatiana lip sync is one of the most iconic lip syncs of herstory đđ
still salty neither of them won a season. clearly they were top queens too good for this show
kyeoptawerk93 they were fucked up by Rolaskatox
@@kiertavasirkus Truest shit in this comment section
âI donât get cute I get drop dead gorgeous.â âBack rolls?!â Amd what the f*** is going on in here on this day?â She is an ICON
"I will be the ray of sunshine...bodak yellow" Ugh i love her so much!!
The one person who disliked the video is probably Jade Jolie
LMAO Petty
Jade who? I still feel super bitter about the whole Season 5 thing
Who?
... where them shoulders should match them hips, but they don't, so ...
Back rolls
I already knew that her show on netflix is better than dancemom
What's the show called???
SHE HAS A SHOW?
WHAT
Go check her instagram. Itâs about her dancing studio Beyond Believe Dance Company, i dont really what its exactly called
@@th4n1t it's called Dancing Queens
I cried when she said âIâm truly the definition âDonât Dream It Be Itâ đâ€ïžâ€ïž yess Queen đ
Legs? For days. Mug? Beat. Body? Snatched. Hair? Together. Clean. Consistent. Legend.
Back? Rolls.
@@dannymadison6335 how did I miss that!
@@nefelichristogoula316 haha I couldn't resist đđđ
Hotel? Trivago
ICON
Alyssa and her show Alyssaâs secret pulled me out of my depression. Now kids mental health is not a joke. I tried everything, from meds to therapy but only Alyssaâs secret made me smile and eventually brought me back to life. Drag queens are heroes!!!
UNHhhh kept me going last year! đ
I agree. Alyssa's Secret helped me deal with my depression and I even have a playlist to watch when I'm sad
â€ïžâ€ïž
Tau S that's beautiful đ
Luis GĂłmez thanks
The real winner of season five, All Stars 2, and all time Fan Favorite, Miss Congeniality etc...Icon. Legend.
A true legend. She might not have won on either of her season but she's still one of the most iconic queens ever. The embodiement of charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent.
"...I'm glad she didn't hold me to it." GAG LMAO
Worry less, giggle more and don't forget to be gay... I am #deceased
Awesome â€ïž
hi Ryan.
"I knew I wanted to be this large over the top character that justin couldn't or was too afraid to be" đ this resonates deeply and gives me hope for my own creative dreams. I love drag queens so much. So thankful for their inspiration and work!
â...and shut up and driveâ
enough said.
I don't care what anyone says but I LOVED THAT CAMERA DRESS! I LIVED FOR IT!
Katie Lever me too! I lived for it
i mean i donât think it fit the theme properly it GIRL it was such a good dress
Katie Lever me too
I loved that dress too!
Not only that, she looks hot in that wig. Probably my favourite look of hers.
Ive met Alyssa a couple of times out in Dallas. She is sweet and humble, and deserves all this recognition!!
How lucky you're đđđ
Writing this message is as close as I will ever get to the greatest piece of drag icon there is,forever love our Queen Alyssa Edwardsđ€best wishes to you all from the other side of the World (almost đ) Greetings from Norway đ
Landon Carver
Oh you lucky duck you!
I'm not surprised she turned out to be sweet as pie, when you met her.
You lucky, lucky person!
You bitch!
đ
I love how calm, collected and sweet she is while still being the campy diva we all love! Sheâs so talented and always makes my day!
Television ICON. The best queen to EVER to be on drag race. Surprisingly for a gay man; there's *nothing* shady, poisonous, or toxic about her energy. A pure innocent talented heart. She's addicting on all levels. A total healer. I hope she elevates beyond Alyssa's secret.
âAnd donât forget to be gay and have a good old timeâ
Words to live by
Amen đđ»
Am I the only one who cried while and after watching this. She is such an iconic queen who ever stepped in to the werkroom and on the main stage. I love her so much! Go, Alyssa!
As soon as she said don't dream it, be it. Those words hit me at 8yrs old, the first time I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show. 20 years later and oh, yeah that brought the tears.
She is so amazing.
No one:
Literally no one:
Alyssa: tongue pops
What an icon
âBeyonce done told yâall and wrote a song about it.â
Yassss, KWEEN!
SHE'S BACK BACK BACK BACK AGAIN
Forgot a back
"Why you laughin??!" still kills me đđđđ
If Sheldon Cooper didn't go into the field of Quantum Physics.
She doesn't like Sheldon out of drag she legit looks like Toni Collette with less hair. It's crazy!
@@MK-dn8oq OMG! THANK YOU! Yes! Totally Toni Collette! I've often wondered who that face reminds me of!
i just love her drag!!!!!! perfect!!!!
kisses from Belgium xxxxxx
The three dislikes are Phi Phi, Coco, and Jade đ
r lune yesss perioddd a queenn
Coco face crack of the centery
What a ray of sunshine ! She deserved to be a top 4 for as2!
she deserved to be a winner actually :( but hey...life had something else for her, even BETTER then winning RPDR :D
Don't get me started....that elimination đ
They needed it. She is a star anyway đ§đ»ââïž
I love Alyssa, it makes me so happy to see Ru inviting her back to teach the queens how to dance and walk the runway for the show. A true drag race LEGEND.
When Alyssa opened her mouth, I started taking notes!
I didn't know I could love her even more. I was proved wrong after watching this video.
Alyssa deserves the world!
This is amazing, Alyssa is such a class act. I am waiting for Shangela's video next... that girl is the epitome of perseverance and putting her head up when it's the shittiest.
âthe youth of today and future of tomorrowâ
..all in your hands miss alyssa
"Don't get bitter, just get better." Thank you Alyssa Edwards for giving me this mantra to LIVE BYđđđđđ§Ą
This is one of the infinite reasons why Alyssa Edwards is my all-time favorite queen. Throughout the years, I learned to admire her as a performer, to respect her as a human and to love her as the mother I never had. There is no greater feeling for a fan than seeing one of your biggest inspirations in life ascend to new heights and achieving their goals. Love you lots and lots, Ms. Edwards, and I hope someday I can be as inspiring to someone else as you were to me
I could listen to Alyssa speak forever sheâs so elegant and just amazing! Definitely one of my favorite queens from drag race! â€ïžâ€ïžđđ
Alyssa Edwards is definitely in my top 3 Drag Queens. I think she deserved to be in the top of All Stars 2. Plus she is humble, cannot say that about a lot of them.
I love ALYSSA EDWARDS!!!!! Of course I do sheâs a fellow Texan. Iâm so happy to see the rags to richest stories. Sheâs definitely gonna go further than anyone in the drag industry. Her heart is pure and all will come true for the purest of heart.
Her show on netflix better show in every country
Yes, it will be international :)
It's going to premiere globally October 5
I love her so much and she slays! But lets talk about how professional and amazing she is in and out of drag
shes never meant to be RPDR winner coz shes destined to be a TV STAR! way to go alyssa!
I love her so much, and I love it when she lets us see who Justin is, as well. Both equally beautiful â€ïžâ€ïž
What a super sweet interview, Iâll keep saying this, sheâs not a star, sheâs a constellation đ
The queen of the back rollsđđđ
She has gone through so much in her personal life and she still decides sheâs going to be the best she can be and a ray of sunshine. How can you not love her?! I highly highly recommend her new show on Netflix. It has everything, tears, joy, laughs. You gotta watch it!
She deserves a segment like this. She is a true performer. She is a professional and SHE IS F I E R C E!!!!!!
If there's one queen that should be in the hall of fame it's her. If anything I'm convinced Ru felt threatened and that's why she never let her rightfully win.
I agree with this but sis Ru wasnt the one threatened, the other girls were and you could tell that. You could tell Alaska and Detox were very aware of how Ru always had a soft spot for alyssa and they were shook
Buttermilk Biscuit Ru looked visibly disappointed on AS2 when they sent her home for the second time over Roxxy Andrews.
If Ru had wanted her to stay over the drama caused by having her unfairly ejected she would never have put her in the bottom three. She'd have done a Roxxy, Alaska bottom two, which is how it should have been OR she would have given the lip synch win to Katya. As much as Rupaul loves Alyssa, she loves the ratings more.
Ru Lives for Alyssa! He even invited her to walk the red carpet with him one time! She was shocked when they eliminated Alyssa on AS2! Trust, Ru is not threatened whatsoever
And you also can't deny season 5 was a little rough for her, she was in the bottom three times
Love Alyssa.. the talent, the looks, the humour, but most of all.. the big heart. She draws the eye and lights up the room, now that's Star Quality!
I think we all can agree that even tho Alyssa didnât win, she has easily become a fan favourite and an iconic, legendary queenđđ
Alyssa has really grown and blossom greatness
I can watch anything Alyssa related for hours!!!!
I was just watching Laganja, perfect timing!
now, we know phiphi logged onto 74 different devices and disliked this...
She needs her own Crown for being a Quintessential Drag Queen đž One of my all time favorite â€ïž
For me, Alyssa is the most beautiful queen evaaahhh!!!! đ her mouth and eyes hypnotize anybody.
a legitimate drag race royalty
Always and Forever: ALYSSA EDWARDS!!! *TONGUE POP*
this was the best drag queen interview in the series.
And she should have won AS2 as far as I am concerned
Wow, I can't wait for Alyssa to start hosting Drag Race once Rupaul decides to move on
Oooh, wouldn't that be something? I think that's an amazing idea!
Alyssa is just a little drop of sunshine, love her so much
This was my very first video of any rpdr, meaning Alyssa was the very first queen i saw. Ever. Thank you so much.
the ending was very touching.
Alyssa is so inspirational
YOU COULD NOT LOVE HER MORE
My favorite queen hands down. A lot of queens speak poorly of others, but other than being notoriously late Alyssa is so PROFESSIONAL. Alyssa is so much more than a dancing queen..she is talented, DROP DEAD GORGEOUS, inspirational, hilarious and a force to be reckoned with. She may not have won the crown in S5 or AS2 but she won the crowd both times.
Just finished watching your Netflix series!!! Absolutely gagged!! Your an amazing inspiration to those children and the way you intertwined both your teaching and drag pure genius! Congrats Alyssa/Justin
I loved Alyssa the moment I saw her, such carisama, uniqueness, nerve and talent all in one sickening woman!
Iâm just smiling through the whole video! Thank you Alyssa!
Spoken like a true professional and class act! I love Alyssa and cant wait for her Netflix show! I was there at dragcon both days and met her, so sweet and kind!
How could I love her more than I already do! She seems like a wonderful person inside and out. A true role model who didnt change herself or her drag
Alyssa truly is so elegant and wise. I have always admired her, but this video just made me respect her so much more. Always and forever, a superstar
Alyssa looks like Yellow Diamond đ
Rupaul is gracious and graceful. Not just beautiful on the inside n out. Thank you for bringing us Alyssa Edwards. A true beauty inside n out and a very gifted n talented human being.
This winner !! Made me cry with this interview... sheâs the definition of Winning isnât everything, want to is .... youâre a Star Alyssa ! And thatâs a fact.... wow
That ma'am, is a biological woman.
If Drag had a God/Goddess it would be Alyssa Edwards.
She is so emotionally intelligent and I think thatâs why sheâs such a special queen.
The pure joy i get from Alyssa. Truly such a beautiful soul that lifts everyone up.
Sheâs such an inspiring, precious queen. Love you, Alyssa!
My favorite queen of all time. So happy for her!
I love Alyssa so much. Seeing someone so compassionate and legendary like her it touches me
She is my favourite Queen, I quote her on a daily basis, and I feel terrible cause I didn't get to see her live. She has that sparkle!
This made me emotional, i miss drag race
Honey, Miss Alyssa looks BROWN COW, STUNNING in yellow! I need to get my Netflix account on point so that I can watch this, hunty.
I love the fact that Alyssa is such a great role model! She really cares for her dance students & young fansđđ
Iâm so glad drag has become part of the mainstream drag queens work hard they deserve recognition and a proper paycheque
I hope they'll do one of Shangela next đ
Halleloooo
And one for laganga also
