No femme top shaming here!

Ross Mathews wants to clear something up.

In a resurfaced video from a 2013 interview on Howard Stern's SiriusXM show that is currently making its round on the web, the comedian and longtime RuPaul's Drag Race judge revealed that his bedroom activity isn't exactly how you might be picturing it. While stereotypes say that someone as feminine as him must be a bottom in the bedroom, Mathews says the stereotypes aren't true.

"I see you as a power bottom," Stern said to Mathews during their interview. "Am I right?"

"No," Matthews giggled. "No!"

"You're not? You're not a power bottom?" Stern asked.

"Everybody thinks...because of the voice..." Matthews replied. "Because the voice is the most feminine."

After Stern said the voice threw him off, the hosts asked if that meant Mathews is a top. Mathews shyly answered "Yeah." The best part of the video comes when Stern followed that up by asking Mathews if that means he's a "power top."

"Not like a...I don't, like, 'give it.' I'm not like, 'come here, I gotta give it to ya,'" he said before giggling.

There will be no femme top shaming here!

Earlier this year, Mathews, who has been serving as a judge on RuPaul's Drag Race since season 7 and who co-hosts The Drew Barrymore Show on CBS, got married to Dr. Wellinthon Garcia during a beachside ceremony in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

The wedding took place at the Almar Resort, where the couple first met back in January 2020. The ceremony had 110 guests and featured Drew Barrymore herself as the couple's flower girl, something the actress had brought up the idea of.

"I was on The Drew Barrymore Show," Mathews said to People. "One day we were doing a story about weddings and she asked me, 'Are you going to have a flower girl at my wedding?' And I'm like, 'Why? You want the gig? And she was like, 'Oh! Are you asking me to be your flower girl?'"

He continued: "I was like, 'Do you want to be?' She goes, 'Are you serious?' I'm like, 'Are you serious?' And she's like, 'I'm so serious.' So she's our flower girl!"
