RuPaul's Drag Race alum Alyssa Edwards, who's reboot of Alyssa's Secret: The Reboot premieres today (April 26) on WOW Presents plus revealed that she's ready to compete on Drag Race again.


Here's what she said in a recent interview with Out:


Yeah, I would! Actually, when I started watching all of this, I got back in the lab with a pen and a pad… and I’m like, ‘Look, I have a little place cleared out on my vanity, on my little wall over here, just in case I can have a chance to get a crown.’ I got to manifest that. So, I would love to.


In season five, I thought I was going into the world’s largest pageant. I remember Shangela telling me, ‘No, mom, it’s not a pageant.’ And I said, ‘Yes, it is. There are judges and there are categories,’ And then All Stars 2, oh, I had just a ball. Because, you know what, I learned my superpower. I remember RuPaul always saying that. And I kind of got in on the joke and just started laughing at myself. Not taking it all so seriously.


Watching all of these Versus the World and this and that, I could see myself in that werk room now. I mean, it’s been a decade, so it’d be going to a high school reunion [laughs], but it would be so much fun. That room is exciting. It’s tough, it’s hard, it’s challenging, but it is so much fun. For a few years, I probably would’ve said no. But I think now I’ve arrived at a place where I’m like, ‘Girl, let me pack my purse and let me see if the old broom still sweeps.’


I loved Alyssa on her Drag Race and All Stars seasons, and would love to see her compete on Global Drag Race or All Stars 9.
