Utica is more than just a Drag Race alum — she’s rewriting the rules of fashion, spirituality, and queerness. On this week’s HIGHKEY!, hosts Ryan Mitchell and Yvie Oddly sit down with Utica (aka Ethan from Project Runway) for a conversation that’s equal parts hilarious and heartfelt. From growing up religious in the Midwest to becoming a “slutty little party girl” in Chicago, Utica opens up about her journey to self-expression and how drag inspires mainstream fashion. The trio get real about Law Roach’s critiques, the politics of drag, the wild crossover between Drag Race and Project Runway, and why queerness is both natural and revolutionary. Plus: the ladies get HighKey! about music, fashion, and shutting the f*** up.
