Luckily Crystal has known that she'd be eliminated in Episode 7 for nearly a year and has planned accordingly.
Despite having months to come to terms with her elimination, Crystal knows she's still going to be emotional when she watches it happen again on TV.
"I'm gonna make sure I give myself a good hour in between the viewing and the show after to completely redo my makeup, because I will probably be hysterical," she says. "I just feel my feelings very very much, and I cry, so I think it'll definitely take a toll on me."
"It'll also take a toll on me to see myself getting eliminated in that werewolf look," she laughs. "Listen, that look is sickening and c*nt, but it's not howI usually look sickening and c*nt like. I'm like, 'Oh my god, I go home with a full Neanderthal brow bone on.'"

Exactly. I was so surprised. What was going through your head when you were eliminated?There's a typo on this. No, I was angry. I was mad. I was sad. I guess you could say all the negative emotions. You put your heart and soul into the competition, and it can be taken from you so, so fast, especially when you're doing pretty well. I mean, I was kind of killing it. Almost every week, I was in the top. So when you land low, and you immediately get the boot, it's a heartbreak. It's like, damn one little mess up can really really send you packing.
Let's talk about the Snatch Game. How did you decide to pick Nicole Richie, and were there any other options floating around in your brain?I had two that I auditioned with, and they were the two that I went into the show with. I was very confident in my Nicole Richie when I auditioned with it. Snatch Game is hard. It was one of those challenges I knew either I would like glide by, or it would be my downfall. Unfortunately, it gave me the boot. I chose Nicole Richie because she was a reality star I grew up with. I watched her on The Simple Life all the time, way too young watching The Simple Life. Her and Paris [Hilton] were iconic to me. I love the two of them. I would have probably done Paris as well, but she was already done. I wanted to do someone who hasn't been done yet, so I went with Nicole. My second option was another reality star I grew up watching from Jersey Shore: Jwoww. I think maybe if I did that, I could have been safe. But who knows because maybe I wouldn't have opened up and let that wall down. I think I was just so nervous in Snatch Game. It was scary girl.
Whose idea was that, and how many somersaults did you do while filming? Oh my God, I think my shoulder is still bruised from those somersaults. I don't know how the idea came about. You can see it play out where we we're literally rolling the tumbleweeds, and they weren't rolling. So I was like, okay, we need to fix this. I want to say maybe Hormona was the one that was like, "Crystal, roll in the background." I just kept rolling and literally did it like 40, 50 times back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, because we shot each take, I think, for around 15 minutes or so. I was doing it the whole time they are doing their little lip-syncing.
You had so many highs this season. The Dochii lip sync was so incredible and that song was trending afterwards. What was it like watching yourself do that on the big screen?It was crazy to see. I mean, I knew I was going to excel in these things. No shade, but I know my talents, and I know things that I do well. Being at the viewing parties and seeing the reception from everyone in the audience cheering for you when you come on screen and you turn the corner in your runway and you're killing it was so, so, so heartwarming and so rewarding. Like all the hard work and dedication I've put into this craft, and this art form is truly coming to fruition, and I'm getting my flowers.
Thank you so much for chatting with me. I'm sad that you got eliminated, but I'm excited for you to be one of the robbed queens of RuPaul's Drag Race and have the fandom up in arms on your behalf.Oh, girl, I hope they're up in arms on my behalf. Call RuPaul and say, "Hey, we want her back for All Stars!
