In 2020, Bernardo Sim of Screen Rant wrote, "It is fair to say that The Princess was a bit misunderstood on Drag Race, but it is great to see that this hasn't stopped her from being an incredibly successful drag entertainer. In fact, The Princess is the current host and emcee at Play Nashville, which is widely regarded as one of the best and most successful LGBTQ+ venues in the country."[7] She continues to perform in Nashville regularly.[8][9]
