This Miss Congeniality winner is reminding fans that her feud with another queen is so much deeper than social media drama.

Sometimes it’s not about the drama.

Malaysia Babydoll Foxx isn’t just calling out one of her fellow queens – she’s also calling out the fans who are overlooking mental health for tea.

The RuPaul’s Drag Race season 15 Miss Congeniality winner recently took to X, previously Twitter, to let her fans know she is no longer associated “in any way, shape, or form with MISERABLE IGNORANT B*TCH,” referring to her fellow competitor Mistress Isabelle Brooks.

“This isn’t a joke or a scandal. Please don’t ask me any questions about them,” Foxx wrote. “They are blocked from all my social media platforms as well as my phone. The END!”

When one commenter suggested that Foxx’s feud with Brooks “keeps [her] relevant,” Foxx hit back: “That’s the problem. I don’t want to be. I don’t post on here or instagram. I wish she stops giving me any attention at all.”

The queen then used the moment to remind fans that her posts weren't about drama or social media attention, but instead deeply tied to her personal life and mental health – things she values more than clout.

“To those of you thinking my posts are to stay relevant because a new season of Drag Race is coming. Please stop,” Foxx wrote. “I have been at my lowest and the last thing I need is attention from people who have literally tormented me and I’ve expressed it off the apps…”

Foxx revealed that she has "sometimes regretted doing the show" because of the effect the attention has on her well-being, and that she is often hesitant to open up about it publicly since "I can’t be vulnerable on these apps because it turns into I’m complaining or I’m weak.”

“Mental health is very important and I choose peace over any fame and relevance," she continued. "If I could be completely honest sometimes I’ve regretted doing the show because how people shame me about everything I’ve done on it.”

“I’m constantly reminded of my failures and never the triumphs of coming from where I’m from and inspiring those who have never seen themselves," Foxx said. "If views and numbers are important to you congratulations. I’m not fixated on those things especially if it isn’t genuine."
