‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ alum Katya Zamolodchikova is taking a hiatus to focus on sobriety.
Known as Brian McCook out of drag, Cook announced on April 9, Tuesday, through a video on Instagram that he will be taking a break from his career to check back into rehab.
“Hi, everybody. There’s a saying for the active alcoholic or drug addict. The trajectory of the life course has three possible outcomes: A. jail; B. institutions; or C. death. Unfortunately, I find myself squarely and firmly and quite uncomfortably in the B camp right now. But, in an effort to make things good with you in the future, I gotta make things good for me right now,” Cook said in the clip.
He continued: “Rest assured that any rescheduled dates or potential loss of money will be rectified as swiftly and competently as possible. I gotta swiftly and competently rectify my ass right now. Thank you so much for your patience and compassion and I hope that you have a wonderful day.”
