And so I’m just glad that I get to live my dream every day. They’re actually just standard, almost like a fluffy cot. We kind of had to rush it, but I’m super glad for the bunk that I have because, you know, I love a top bunk. My bunk, thus far, is at the top in the back. Today will be the first day we get to board. The people are the insight to what’s happening in the city, and if the city is good or not. I feel like that’s the best way to know a city, than just to see the buildings. But even then, I always feel like when we have to meet and greet, we have opportunities to talk to people from the city. When we land in a city, most often we try to make sure we force ourselves to get up and go out and explore the city and see everything that’s there and just have a good time and try to take in as much as we can. So I feel like that would be so fun to go and see where all the magic started. Yeah, of course! I think that would be so iconic, especially considering there’s this really cute Diana Ross tribute on the “RuPaul” runway recently. What would you like to explore while you’re in Detroit? Here, Hall talks about learning confidence from trans women, inspiring Black queer youth, and how she’s ready to win on a real, non-virtual stage. (No clubbing, for instance.) But, even though she just joined and has only experienced rehearsal, the tour has “already been the best time.” As you might imagine, the tour’s Covid precautions are strict - or “very cute,” as she puts it. Those girls, all contestants on the show, include Daya Betty, Angeria Paris VanMicheals, Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, Kameron Michaels, Rosé, Jorgeous and Asia O’Hara.Īnd while it might be Hall’s longest visit to Detroit, it’s unlikely you’ll see her working the dance floor at Menjo’s. The Milwaukee native called just as she was joining the tour, which brings together a troupe of queens for the official “RuPaul’s Drag Race” show July 30 at the Michigan Lottery Amphitheater in Sterling Heights.

“I can finally touch down and actually touch down,” says Hall, who won “RuPaul’s Drag Race” Season 12 and has been killing it on “All Stars.” When Jaida Essence Hall gets to Michigan for the Werq the World tour, her visit will mark the first time she’s been anywhere in the state outside Detroit Metro Airport.
