As a result of all of the recognition she’s received since Drag Race aired, Willow admitted, “I’d love to be humbled.”
Acknowledging that “it feels great to have a huge notification from the world that I’m going in the right direction in my life,” Willow knows the balance she requires.
“I’d love to escape to the woods for a while and reconnect with myself, because you can kind of lose yourself in all the conflama of fame and celebrity.”
