To sayCrystal Envywas a Top 4 material inRuPaul’s Drag RaceSeason 17 would be an understatement.
The Snatch Game episode saw Crystal failing her Richie impersonation alongsideLana Ja’Rae(who opted to impersonateRosa Parks).
She told EW:
“It was very much those emotions when I was there as well.

At the end of the day, Im so happy for my experience because I did really well.
I was in the top almost every week I was there.
Im doing better now.
Ive had time to process, some good therapy was helpful.”
“Immediately I wanted to be like, Are you sure?
It didnt feel like my time to go home.
I had a steady trajectory up the cliff and then I just fell right off.
It was shocking and heartbreaking.
Its also heartbreaking to see your heart break on television.
For it to not end the way you envision it, and also unexpectedly… Im a self-aware person.
If I was doing bad, Id be like, okay, this is my time.
Its hard to accept the fate when youre kind of killing it,” Crystal added.
Crystal then apologized to Richie for her Snatch Game performance, saying “Dont hate me, Nicole.
I do love you.
I do RuPaulogize to Nicole Richie.
I love you, respect you, and admire you.
I was just so nerve-racked in the moment.”
