Bob the Drag queen throws some slight shade to Drag Race All Stars

While catching up with Harry Jowsey on his podcast, Boyfriend Material, Drag Race legend Bob the Drag Queen was asked if he’d ever return to Drag Race. Bob’s reply? Politley is throwing some shade to All Stars alumni. 

“I think I’m good. I won already.” He continued to say. “Also, going to All Stars is, no shade, but that’s for losers. Go back to when you lost and I won.”

Harry chimed in, saying, " The ratings wouldgo crazy” if Bob returned to the cult show. But the drag star was quick to shut down any speculation of a franchise appearance.  

“In their defense, I was busy and probably would’ve said no anyway, but it is true that I wasn’t invited.”

Bob has a point. Since taking home the crown on the eighth season of Drag Race, Bob has become one of the franchise’s most successful queens. 

From hosting the popular Sibling Rivalry podcast with Monét X Change and appearing on The Traitors US season 3 to becoming a New York Times Best Seller, Bob is booked and busy. 

However, there is one reality show the 38-year-old says he would actually be interested in competing on.

"I'm actually a standup comedian who kind of ended up doing reality TV. I've done a few shows. I've done more than people know I've done," Bob, 38, explained while chatting with Parade on the red carpet at the opening night of Broadway's The Last Five Years

"I've actually done Last Comic Standing, I've done America's Got Talent, I've done RuPaul's Drag Race. I hosted my own show on HBO for a while. I was on The Traitors. I had a show called Drag My Dad on MTV [Facebook Watch]. So I do a lot of reality TV, shockingly, but I never intended to become a reality TV person. It just kind of ended up happening."

He admitted, "I would probably do The Amazing Race with Monét X Change."
