Shangela recently made history by joining season 31 of Dancing With the Stars as the show’s first male same-sex pair to regularly compete. She also became the first-ever drag performer to get cast in the U.S. series. During an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Shangela revealed that she called up Courtney Act to ask her RuPaul’s Drag Race sister for advice regarding the ballroom television series. Shangie recalled, “Prior to the first episode, I said, ‘Hey, sis, I’m getting ready, I’m doing the salsa, what do you think?’ and we talked. We had great conversations; she gave me good advice about the show.”
Shangie also reached out to another Drag Race legend who competed on Strictly Come Dancing: Michelle Visage. The All-Stars 3 finalist said,
“Baby, you’ve got to get those shoulders down, lean back, look at that head position, and move those feet with strong legs.”
In the meantime, Shangela wants none other than RuPaul himself to do Dancing With the Stars next. Shangie shared excitedly, “You know who I really want to see do it? RuPaul. I’d like to see RuPaul in that ballroom, she’s all about elegance and grace, and I’m sure she’d turn a quick-step out.”
