Mrs. Kasha Davis calls herself "RuPaul's first housewife." And indeed, the Rochester, NY. native could likely bake the perfect apple pie, mix a mean martini and read you the house down -- while never mussing her hair.

Davis was eliminated during this week's DESPY challenge, which tasked the 10 remaining queens with putting together an awards show. She put on a fierce front during Teena Marie's "Covergirl" but lost to the seemingly unbeatble Kandy Ho.

Davis gets bonus points, however, for her imromptu Joan Rivers impression during the show's mini-challenge.

Mrs. Kasha Davis is a very proper name for a drag queen. Where'd it come from?

First and foremost, because I've been married 12 years to my darling husband Steven, Mr. Davis. But it really came about when my drag mother, Naomi Kane – who is also the drag mother of Pandora Boxx and Darienne Lake – was like, 'You're Mrs. Kasha Davis." She owned a drag club here in New York and essentially quarantined all of us. I'm a little bit of a prude. I don't know if you've heard this about drag queens, but sometimes they get around. I was always like, 'Well I'll have a cocktail, sit over here and watch.

How does that tie into your overall philosophy on drag?

I want to transcend. I don't want it to just be the gay community. I want to go to the straight community because that's where the dollars are. It's a matter of entertainment. It's not just about putting on a dress and hanging out in a club. It's really for me more theatrical.

Were you surprised at being eliminated?

We did well in the mini-challenge. After the end of the lip sync, I stood there on the side of the stage and thought, 'Get it, girl. I'm staying.' Last week, Trixie (Mattel) went home on a comedy challenge. This week. I went home on a hosting challenge. I host! That's what I do. I was very shocked. But I think what I did to myself, taking ownership, is that I overthought it. Kathy Griffin was giving us suggestions on what to say. I just tried to do what people wanted instead of doing my own thing. Lesson learned.

What was your favorite part of the 'Drag Race' experience?

The set that they do the show on was one of the original studios for 'I Love Lucy.' That's huge for me. But also, RuPaul is one of the most sincere, genuine people that you'd ever wanna meet. He really wants us all to succeed. He's such a big heart. I was very surprised at how much he knew about me and how much he wanted me to do well.

Which queen(s) did you click with the quickest?

I probably am the closest with Ginger. She and I have a similiarity in terms of what we do. Tempest (DuJour) and I have been doing some touring together. She and I have had a blast together. We find ourselves to be the ones like, 'Let's go to a nicer restaurant.' No offense, young kids. They wanna go to Chipotle or whatever that place is. Jasmine (Masters) cracks me the hell up. She's just a hoot. At the same time, I admire and find very interesting the talent and the wit of Katya.

Who's personality was the most, um, challenging?

Pearl – just because she is everything I wish I was when I was young. I actually called her the other day and said, 'I'm so sorry I keep saying that you're this, that and the other.' I wish I allowed myself to be that way at her age. And I probably was, but I just took what I considered my responsible, business route. In terms of an artist, I have so much respect for the fact that she just goes for whatever it is.

Who were you planning to impersonate during the Snatch Game?

Liza Minnelli, of course. I play her every once in awhile when I go to rehab.

You'll be at South Beach nighclug June 13. What comes to mind when you hear Houston?

Shoulder pads and big hair.

Your new single is called 'Cocktail.' Available on iTunes! (Wink.) What's your drink of choice?

I should say gin because that's usually what I have in videos. But lately it's just been a nice, cheap box wine. Let's not spend a lot of money. It's just a waste.
