When Sharon walked on the first runway and did the spooky-ooky drag with the fake blood, the whole course of the show changed. She influenced so much and you can see it in the queens after her season. Love her or not, she is a pioneer.

Antonio Amador Unfortunately, human emotions still will get in the way. The only positive (or logical) thing we can think of is that there will always be pain and processes to slowly heal from that pain. Do what you have to do until you feel better. If something is not right, change it up a little until you feel better.

It's touching how Sharon and Alaska still care a lot about each other ♥ You can see sincerity when they talk about each other.
I wonder if alaska wishes people would stop asking about a breakup that happened years ago, cause i’m over hearing about it. I’m happy alaska seems to be doing much better now then she was before.

+ThatBoyWilly But of course Alaska will always feel grateful for the presence of Sharon Needles in her life .... she won All Stars 2 because she borrowed so much from Sharon Needles, Sharon let her use quite a bit of her ideas I think and it transformed her from previously being the sweet girl next door to someone with a bigger stage presence ..

She even talks about their breakup in one of her songs. I don't think it bothers her so much. It's a part of her life that she needed to go through in order to get to where she is now, as she says in The T, she misses the relationship but she knows it couldn't have worked because they're better apart. I don't think she hates talking about the break up because people who hate talking about a breakup are guilty and bitter. I don't think Alaska hates the time they spent together and I think she's really grateful for Sharon, so she has no reason to look back and hate it. She's also an entertainer, she wants to be in people's thoughts, she wants to leave an impression. Part of drag is facing society and make them think about your piece no matter how positively they embrace it. She owes a lot of her fame to that relationship and breakup. She acknowledges it herself, very, very, publicly. I don't think she ever views it as "omg can you guys talk about something else" because that's literally a part of her life and her following doesn't actually talk about it all that much. For her to overreact to pretty much a dead and quiet reaction by the public (I'm trying to say no one really cares about their breakup anymore really) now would show just how unworthy she is- and she's not. She's very worthy of what she has now and she's handling this publicity (or lack thereof because literally no one but new fans care now) very, very maturely and like congenial individual. It's one reason to make this video-- so everyone knows.

+Nicole Roberts I know Alaska has taken some of Sharon's ideas, for example during the All Stars, she recycled Sharon Needle's Mae West gag from a few years ago (you can see Sharon doing the Mae West impression in one of their "Camping" episodes from a few years ago).. There is however no evidence from you that Sharon Needles has borrowed anything from Alaska, at least not in any observable obvious ways. I don't appreciate how you're trying to lessen Sharon Needles's role in influencing Alaska's stage personality ... its sneaky, its like refusing to give credit to someone by saying that the influence is both ways, thats a very disengenous and ungrateful thing to do ...
Thats is what real love is. You don't have to be in a relationship to be happy for them and wish well. Its more than infatuation.
It looks like she still loves her in a platonic way
It's totally true...... Before Sharon and After Sharon Drag Race..... for sure.
This has Aged.
Really amazing to see Alaska reflect on this whole process ❤️
It's amazing how almost 5 years after their split, Sharon and Alaska still talk about each other a lot and think so highly of one another. I honestly think Sharon was the love of Alaska's life and it's really hard to fully get over someone who you were madly in love with and who changed/impacted your life in so many ways. Their relationship might've been toxic, especially towards the end, but it's still sad that they didn't end up working out.

Season 4 was the first season I had ever watched of RPDR and I fell in love. I was rooting for Sharon Needles the whole time and I agree that she changed the game for everyone.
I was devastated when I heard about their break up. But we don't tolerate toxic relationship and self-preservation is very important. I'm glad their good friends and still nice to each other.
I can't believe how beautiful Alaska is out of drag, like, wow, boy, can we meet.

"There was drag before Sharon and AFTER Sharon"
It was kinda good that they broke up even tho how loved that couple was I think when you have two superstars in one relationship one has to come forward and the other has to fall behind or your relationship is just going to be chaos and unfortunately that was Alaska and even tho we all knew she supported Sharon 100% and never seemed bitter it must of caused a lot of tension for Alaska never being able to shine as brightly as we know she can but now that that’s gone Alaska can now truly be a superstar and what a total superstar she has become but still Sharon+Alaska R.I.P. GOAT and it also cool that they can tour together and be friends and they have had nothing but good things to say about the other

The one word that sprang to mind while I was watching this was grace. Justin/Alaska handled this video with absolute grace and I think it is testament to the love that they shared that she is able to sit there and reflect on their time together with appreciation and gratitude. Sad but beautiful
I'm new to drag race so the other day I was bragging about how special it is to not have seen it all and lived through the fun and excitement because I have it all to come.... The flip side is now my heart is breaking for things years after everybody else.

alaska is just proof for that everything has it's reason & sometimes things just don't work out in the first place, which can also be a good thing. but you can still end up as a winner in the end but then again winning isn't everything.
STOP i love them, it seems like it was an understanding split, and we can see how Alaska was able to find herself and refine her drag after the break up. love them❤️❤️
Alaska, your actually a really inspirational individual. You represent something so powerful, and as a huge fan of yours I’d like to say something regarding this situation. I know that despite all the hardships, you will be able to find happiness again. And that’s all that truly matters. It’s the hard things that make us stronger in life. 💕
Before Sharon and after Sharon drag race is so true. She’s the one that everyone tells me about when they talk about the show. I remember when it finally came on Canadian Netflix all my friends were saying “WATCH SEASON 4!” She is such a game changer and added something so powerful to the show. Alaska’s grace and humbleness is just beautiful too! Such a sweetheart and I aspire to be this wholesome of a person ❤️❤️
That was so nice, I'm so proud of them both
Wow thats very honest. No ego..just telling it like it is. 💖
Now these locals can stop underestimating Sharon's impact on the show.
Wow, Alaska, you are such an inspiration. ❤
He gives Sharon to much credit, Alaska you are my favorite queen in the world!
It's sad that Alaska didn't realise back then that she didn't need Sharon to shine, she could always do it on her own. Although, she is right about Sharon changing Drag Race. They both are amazing and very talented.
Awww i love them both!!
I appreciate when people can realize that ended relationships are just chapters in life, that they are lessons to be learned from. Ended relationships, no good or really bad, can bring new appreciations, and I love seeing people that realize that.

Literally my most favourite Queen, love everything about her. Love her style, her attitude, love her sense of humour. Would pay good money to go to one of her shows
I wish I could talk like this about my ex. Alaska is amazing and so is Sharon, because they proved to people that you can still love (not in a romantic way) your exes. The care they have for each other is amazingly beautiful
The comments were the part of the 50% thanos snapped
And then the devil created Rolaskatox.....
I love how they r still friends even tho they broke up. Still together In my heart
This is really special.
I love them sm💗😭

I adore Alaska. I have watched every season and she is my favorite queen still. Also, Sharon did change drag. Both are awesome!
She looks so much healthier these days ❤❤❤ so happy for her
I mean I'm on tears 😢 she's so nice to her ex that it's beautiful! I love it!
i had no idea they had a relationship, but after seeing this i understand how strong you have to be mentally and physically to not only do drag race, but to get on that stage and sissy that walk without a tear. damn Alaska. my heart goes out to my drag queens❤️
I really think that Raja laid the ground of Sharon to be appreciated and ultimately win the crown. Raja came with this unconventional avant-garde kinda drag that was met with disdain from her fellow competitors as "unpolished" and not as good as the conventional pageant drag. Sharon definitely brought something new, or more like the producers of the show, depending on who you ask 😜 But I definitely think that Raja isn't credited enough on breaking the mold on the show. Love Alaska and hope she comes back for All Winners 2!
I love the honesty. Smooches Alaska
Sharon did change drag race it’s slightly more racist
I feel so sad face r Alaska I want to give her a big hug
I love when people speak civility of their exes, it shows tremendous character
this is totally unrelated but alaska needs to leak her skincare routine bc wow we love a smooth goddess

Most likely you don't even read these comments. But I just want to say it is so impactful to watch a video where an individual doesn't spill bad vibes about an ex. Good for you, I don't know either one of you personally (obviously) but, I've always gotten the impression you both are awesome people. Best of lucks to you and Sharon. Much love ❤

Sooo sorry. I love both of you. Hope you stay friends.
I haven’t seen Alaska for a while on KZread out of drag... she looks so different!
Oh but I loved her from season 3 the audition tapes. She didn’t get picked but they showed her a lot where I wondered why they didn’t. Then Sharon came on and then she finally made it and she was INCREDIBLE. 🙌🏼
When I first saw Sharon on Drag Race, I didn't like her style.......but after watching her, I literally grew to LOVE her and her personality . She is so hard core and I found myself rooting for her!!! Only Sharon Needles.....gotta lover er' !!!
i'm not crying
It is refreshing to see a public breakup and it be civil.
Awe that was sweet
I just love the way Alaska speaks 🥰 #vocalfry
