Canada vs the World-winner Lemon is in her ruling era, and she’s zesty and sharp, but not a bit bitter.
Season two of Canada’s Drag Race: Canada vs the World saw some seriously heavy hitters from across the Drag Race global universe going head to head in the Great White North. Among them were iconic queens Kennedy Davenport, Alexis Mateo, and Eureka of the United States. Along with U.K. fan fave Cheryl, who truly is in her glow-up era, and the always (iconically) mouthy Miss Fiercalicious who brought the drama and a package to die for — and that’s just the top five — well, six if you count the Canadian queen who managed to lap them in the race and snatch the crown, Lemon.
This season, Lemon made it clear that she was on a mission, not just to win for the sake of winning but to prove to herself, her sisters, and the rest of the world that she really is a winner. Anyone who questioned that, stands corrected today.
Lemon came correct this season with a package that made our pocketbooks hurt, incredible performance skills, and ruthless reads, and she was ready to let loose and have fun in the acting challenges. All of which made her not only one to watch but one to try and keep up with.
When the dust settled and she had managed to beat Kennedy and Alexis in a lip-sync showdown — no small feat — she earned her spot among Drag Race royalty. Her fans cheered, while a small but oh-so-loud minority in the audience predictably started claiming “rigga morris.”
PRIDE sat down with Lemon to talk about her meteoric season, her connection to her sisters — and the drama. She dishes on whether or not there was a secret alliance among the girls, why she was determined to win by beating the fiercest competition the show had to offer, and why criticism from the fandom rolls off her back and will never make her bitter.
