Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continues to capture the attention and hearts of many individuals. As her reputation further develops, the public is increasingly becoming more intrigued about her personal life.
Although several publications have already released details about her, the 28-year-old U.S. Representative once shared a surprising revelation in an episode of RuPaul's Drag Race. She opened up to the queens about her life before becoming a leader.
Cheat Sheet recently published a report about the moment she had with the contestants of the show. It all happened earlier this year when the series chose her as one of the guest judges for an episode in Season 12.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sat at the judges' panel, alongside Canadian model Winnie Harlow, during the seventh episode of the reality competition show. While she had captivating moments amid the performances with one of the queens, the "real tea" happened during the Untucked session of RuPaul's Drag Race.
AOC revealed that the show is "special" to her. She shared that she is a "long-time fan," and it was a "dream" of hers to sit on the couches of the session.
The U.S. Representative consequently recalled her life before becoming a politician. She informed the queens that when she was bartending over a year ago, she would come home and watch episodes of the Drag Race. She explained that the show is the "only thing" that would help her "disconnect" and "unplug."
Refinery29 previously published, as well, the accounts of what happened between Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the queen of RuPaul's Drag Race. The American politician added that it was "humbling" to become a part of the show.
Some of the queens shared their thoughts about AOC coming to series. Jaida Essence Hall said that they were "equally thrilled" to see and meet her, whom they described as "someone important" in the United States.

Ocasio-Cortez, later on, thanked the show and the queens on social media. She mentioned one of the contestants, Jackie Cox, who praised her amid the performances. AOC, then, noted that she was "honored" to witness Cox's "bravery" and "courage" as she shared her family's immigration story.
Alongside watching RuPaul's Drag Race, The Sunday Morning Herald previously revealed Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's other likes and interests. Among all, the report focused on her skincare routines, noting that it is a "hobby" for her.
She even once released an outline of her regime, which includes double cleansing, toning, using treatments like vitamin C and retinol, and applying sunscreens. AOC, also, pointed out that she is a "science nerd" who enjoys the science behind every product she uses.
