Princess Poppy Officially Retires With Final Interview at DragCon 2023

Maybe she truly is homophobic.

Princess Poppy had a short run on the recent 15th season of RuPaul's Drag Race, coming in 15th place.

Ever since her elimination, the queen has been very quiet on social media and even announced that she was quitting drag at the reunion.

With DragCon 2023 now in the books, Poppy is fully prepared to leave drag behind for good.

"I am so excited for DragCon to be over. I was not [at my booth]. It was so undecorated that nobody had any idea that it was my booth. I really like that a lot! I was completely unrecognizable as well," Poppy tells Out.

As one of the funniest queens from the 15th season, many fans are curious as to what Poppy will be doing as she moves on from the drag world.

"I think my look is very clear. I'm starting a meth making business! I've never seen Breaking Bad, [but] I'm breaking Princess Poppy."

Although drag isn't her dream career anymore, the queen is grateful that she had the ability to compete on Drag Race and show off her talent to the world.

"I am very grateful for the experience. I'm really glad for the opportunity that it gave me. I also now know that drag is no longer the career path that I want to do. Thanks Drag Race! I [also] think there's queens that should quit. You know who you are. I just genuinely think that I reached my peak. I wore jeans on national TV, so it's all downhill from there."

However, Poppy might be planning the ultimate gag by eventually returning to TV on an upcoming season of All Stars.

"I think I should just quit drag. [Then,] I go back. I win. I win $200,000 and then I quit again! I think that would be so fierce."
