Ru, meanwhile, said about America's new drag superstar, "Her charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent is gigantic, and the world of entertainment has been blessed with a bright new star!" She further added that Naomi Smalls and Kim Chi are much more than just runners-up: "They are gorgeous, talented queens who have captured the hearts and imaginations of the world and are destined for greatness."
