This week on The It Girl Podcast, Britney Shields welcomes back one of our most beloved guests — the unstoppable Seven, returning for her second appearance after snatching victory at the Henny Games: Victors Quarter Quell. Since then, she’s been everywhere, serving as the host and producer of her own hit pre-show at Micky’s: Seven’s Heaven.

We break down her winning strategy, her growth since season one, and the art of doing drag right — from respecting your elders to honoring the steps of the ladder before taking the crown. Seven gives us a masterclass on the many corners of the drag universe:

· The bar scene

· The ballroom scene

· The dance and competition scenes

· The pageant scene

…and all the microcultures that make LA drag a sprawling, interconnected ecosystem and how Seven has her fingers in so many of the pots.

Then we enter full It Girl Mode:

· Miss Mexico’s Miss Universe 2025 win and the controversy shaking the global pageant world

· Wicked 2, which is already rewriting the culture before it even drops

· Morgan McMichaels, fresh off being crowned Entertainer of the Year — we honor her legacy, her influence, and the blueprint she created for all of us to follow

· Aaron Parnas, the young independent progressive journalist keeping us informed (and occasionally unwell) with the real-time scoop on social media

Seven also takes a victory lap for predicting the rise of the K-Pop Demon Hunters trend earlier this summer — just another reminder that drag queens are the true cultural forecasters of our generation.

We close with impassioned pleas for “Wheel of Time” and “Pushing Daisies” — two shows that deserve their Renaissance now.

It’s a reunion, a revelation, and a reminder that Seven is always seven steps ahead of the culture.
