Few Ru-Girls are quite as notorious as Serena ChaCha. Eight years ago, the headstrong Fort Lauderdale-based queen sashayed into the Werk Room for season 5 ofand almost immediately butted heads with all her competitors. Whether she was calling other queens “ghetto” or bragging about her recently-earned art school college degree, the then 21-year-old was far from the season’s Miss Congeniality.
The people who voted and the people who selected to put me there [in the bottom]. I did nothing wrong. Sorry! How does it feel for you to come back to All Stars eight years later and then be the first one to leave? Well, listen. I'll never say who I thought would have been the weaker links because that's just not what I do. But people interviewing me always ask, "Oh, who were you surprised to see?" But they forget the positive side of that. Walking in, I thought a few girls would have been weaker links based on their entrance looks. But it was a flip side right after. That's why I reserved those opinions. But I was happy that everybody was there and everybody had something strong.
When you were competing eight years ago, the internet fandom did not play nearly as large a role in how queens from the show fared outside of it. Now, however, most of the fanbase is on Twitter and Instagram and they’ve been known to be quite vocal with their opinions. How has the fan response been to you returning this season?
