Elsewhere in the interview, Baskin criticized Joe Exotic, her nemesis on the hit Netflix docuseries. A former zoologist whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage, Exotic has accused Baskin of being responsible for Lewis’ disappearance. (Though some of Lewis’ family members also support this theory, law enforcement has stated that Baskin is not a suspect.) Asked if Exotic, who is gay, is a good representative for the queer community, Baskin said, “I think he’s an embarrassment to the human community.”Following the success of “Tiger King,” Baskin joined the cast of “Dancing With the Stars” for the show’s 29th season. Though she spoofed her public image by dancing to “Eye of the Tiger” and a song from Disney’s “The Lion King,” she was eliminated after three weeks.
