Alyssa Edwards Has Her Own Web Series

Ok, so calling it a "series" may be a stretch. The videos are only 30-45 seconds long and there are only a couple out so far, but they are damn funny! Why? Because it's Alyssa Edwards! Duh! She stole my heart during the last season of Drag Race, and seeing more of her is exactly what I need in my life. Check out an example below.



Each minisode is set up as a question for Alyssa to answer. The first part is her straightforward, more rehearsed answer. After, a "shhhhh" splash goes over the screen followed by some outtakes or more candid answers to the question. For example, she was asked to choose Lindsay Lohan or Amanda Bynes. She chooses Lindsay, only to reveal at the end she had no idea who Amanda Bynes was anyway.

I know we had a lot of comedy queens in the past, and I know that Alyssa isn't exactly one of them, but what makes her funny is that she isn't meaning to. She says some airhead things that could have been avoided if she'd stopped to think. The goldmine is that she doesn't have that filter and she will blurt out anything and everything -- and it's funny!

Unlike Willam's (now canceled) weekly installments, these episodes seem to be coming out whenever they feel like coming out. Who knows if we will even get more than what we have so far, but God we can hope. Alyssa, in my opinion, is one of the girls who got let go before her time. Was she a winner? Probably not. Was she deserving of all the negativity and the early send off? No.

I love you Alyssa! Keep up the laughs and you'll always have my heart.
