I truly cannot believe these queens are getting all the "death threats" they claim to be getting. What even consists of a "death threat"? Is it a disgruntled 12 year old telling a queen to kill themselves? Is it an unhinged person with an actual PLAN? Why are these queens getting so many death threats. Of course, I can understand why Brita would get so many death threats. Her death would be as impactful as 9/11 was on the city of New York, as she's the undisputed Queen of New York.

Big girls with big mouths and personalities are exploited on Drag Race for ratings and clicks, then eliminated in the top 3 or 4. Kandy's essential sweetness shines through her at times unflattering edit. She reminds me of a young Charo. Kandy is sexy, but also zany. ❤️

Bullshit. There are many who grew up poor and never heard the word no. It has nothing to do with "no you can't have that" but parents who never said "no you can't behave that way." Kandy is one of them.

^^Agreed, R52. I don't know what Kandy's deal is personally. But as to the point of being told no, it has nothing to do with money. Sure, you get those spoilt brats who get everything and grow up without having worked a day in their life and that's a different kind of spoiled. There are plenty of ways to indulge a kid and one is by not creating firm boundaries and letting them run amok. I've seen it many a time, for example the kid who regularly hurts other children (and I mean throwing metal objects at kids faces) and the parents laugh or say "aww, my poor X" when they told about it. That kid learns it's okay to do that because they won't get admonished for it. What happens to them when they get older?

She looked like a tank covered in flowers. Vangie had no real talent - just some cute loud charm. Ms. Muse has that AND so much more. Kandy has a sexy shape and knows how to dress for it. Her comedic talents are evident, but so far she shines most in fashion and beauty. I think we will really see her soar during tomorrow's music and dancing main challenge. I predict that she'll win.

by Anonymousreply 66February 5, 2021 3:41 AM

Watch Drag Race U.K. R63. It's delightful. And on concurrently. I agree that season 13 is a dull line up of basic talents and personalities. It's not about to get better either. Some OK runways will come our way, but this is not a stand out group. Not ONE of them. The Kandy obsession/hate comes from the self appointed "moderator" of these threads. He's a nutty fat old white man going on about the pushy people of color, every season. He likes NO one black except Chi Chi, Bob and sometimes Symone. He's in love with Vangie, cuz he finds that dude cute. And white. Ha.

That said, Season 12 and Season 10 really were great. I don't understand all the misty memories for Season 4 or 6 for instance. Sharon and Bianca were good winners and contestants, but neither did anything unexpected or outstanding once we saw who they were. As in, after 3 episodes. Sharon is particularly dumb. She had a different look, at the time. For the show. It's been done much better many times since. Alaska was far more punk rock in real life. Season 6 is when Untucked started feeling ridiculously staged. Some good and attractive personalities on that season - though they mostly performed poorly. People forget. Adore, Laganga, Joslyn Fox, Darienne Lake, Vivacious and Courtney Act??? Come on. They were reality TV personalities, with little talent. Bendela is highly overrated. Weird dude in all those showgirl costumes and the scary fake persona. Not a bad impersonator. He went home in 5th place, where he belonged. Like Trixie, it took two tries to get rid of him. He was great on All Stars 3, with no competition but Shangela. Who was robbed.

To me, Seasons 2, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 12 are the best. Season 12 is as good as ANY other season of Drag Race IMO. All Stars 2 and 4 were also really good TV. The ladytestants were competing in top form.

How old are the posters here? Charles Nelson Reilly??? who the fuck should know him. I know my references but I've never heard of him. I had to google and still can't see no way to get there. It's like that Paul Lynde impersonation. Who cares? RuPaul is OLD. That's what fucks up the Drag Race show. Ru, Ross, Carson and (to a lesser extent) Visage. They've seen lots of drag and have all their puns and references, but they're way too old. So the producers end up picking undeserving winners.

Canada and U.K. Drag Race proved what a winning format and showcase the show still can be. Full or raw talent and true surprises. RPDR judging panel needs permanent changes. Keep Michele and Ru, get some human people with flavor and good looks in the other two chairs. Start with that.

Before anyone objects.....Season 7 IS the bomb. Slow start, but some of the best challenges and performers and attractive weirdos E V E R.

Where are you watching season 2 of UK, r69? I have no interest in subscribing to WoW for a bunch of YouTube videos and UK2.

Kandy is the Eric Cartman of season 13, without good writing. Her biggest laugh out of Ru is when she didn't understand the words that were being used. That's why she got mad for being called arrogant, she doesn't understand the meaning of the word. Queens in earlier seasons would have owned it and loved it. She couldn't define the word. She is the perfect reality show contestant, a bully who is always a victim.

Symone is getting the winners edit. In past seasons a queen would have been read for not matching the vertical stripes on the seam. GottMik is getting a good edit, too. I still don't understand how that outfit she designed was so well-liked. It was a series of foul flags pinned to straps. She won for an outfit she purchased in a design challenge. Based on the edit I assume the competition is between these two. Also, until Priyanka in Canada all winners have either the Ball challenge or Snatch Game. Tina Burner seems to be getting the 'Graham Norton Agreed to Scale for UK to get you on this season' pass. I am over The Happy Meal realness.

Drag Race is the only reality show where the contestants have to spend thousands of dollars before arriving just to compete. No other competition show does this. It used to be more even by hving more design challenges, but its all 'look' queens with design and styling teams putting their looks together before they get there.

Which is why I think they should do a season where wardrobe, makeup, and wigs should all be provided by the production and the queens should be required to use what they're given and adapt that to their own styles. Some of these queens are living in 5 floor walk up studio apartments and are jacking their credit up by taking out loans, and then you have queens who have wealthy parents or other types of "benefactors" giving them top name designer looks.

For a disco themed episode, it was really kind of flaccid and depressing. I LOVE disco and the disco era, but the cheesy original song they used for most of the musical number was kind of a mess and a chore to sit through. I'm bummed that Tamisha had to go home losing a lip sync to Kandy of all people. Kandy was bad, but I'm not sure she was the worst this week. They were obviously capitalizing on their feud by pitting them against one another and I suspect also to give Kandy a wake-up call that she's not as safe and stellar as she thinks she is. Olivia Lux is delightful and I'm so glad she won, but her LBD look was kind of meh. Symone could have won for her runway look alone.

Sorry if this has been said (and I have no issue with Gottmik being trans. So far, I quite like him.), but if she has nothing to tuck, well, doesn't it make her naked outfit a little unfair? No man with junk, tucked or not, could have worn that. Isn't half the fun or "magic trick" aspect of drag is to wonder just how a man can wear some of the outfits while having to do SOMETHING with their cock and balls?

by Anonymousreply 118February 6, 2021 9:59 AM

Tamisha’s storyline actually sort of depressed me - and I normally fast forward through the trauma porn of the show. Here is a true drag QUEEN who, after years in the industry, is able to show her talent to the world, only for her to have cancer and a freaking colostomy bag! How painful that she wasn’t able to show what she was made of and I do hope they allow her to come back on another season (not an All Stars) once she has more time to heal.

Also really puts Gotmilk into perspective. Here is someone who unlike Tamisha, hides behind excuses. Won’t to X Y and Z because its triggering. She had all the connections she needed in the drag world. Comes from money. And only got into drag (and became a man) so she could be on drag race. It is easy to wear skimpy, fashionable clothes when you have a female form, went to an elite art school, and have rich friends.

Kandy Moose's excuse for her bad behavior - my mom was in jail and that isn't really me, etc - was as fake and useless as she is.

Her disco outfit was NOT good and her runway - a dress painted on a bag? - was also terrible.

But Utica??? Please the makeup was horrendous. Her constant mugging and contortions really detract from her outfits. Does she have any other talent? It's hard to tell underneath all that "Look at me - I'm Carol Burnett/Lucille Ball" which of course she doesn't even come close to being.....

I wouldn't miss her if she left - you know exactly what she's going to do in every challenge - only the ugly costume and makeup change a little - the tricks remain the same.

Mik- still working that unfair advantage of not having a dick- she can go pee any old time she wants, without any de-taping/re-taping. I forget whom it was on DRUK, but someone wore a very skimpy bottom, and you could see all the tape in the back and got called out for it. It's a very common ploy for reality shows to supply very little food and a lot of alcohol, so people will get messy. Because the queens are all taped up, they're not going to be drinking a lot of hydrating liquids.

I really respect Tamisha and love that no-bullshit attitude. They should add her as the House Mother Mentor to the contestants, but I guess that would be impinging on Ru's "Mother" role.

Candy brings nothing to drag- it certainly is not the "New Face". Perhaps they edited all the charm that the other contestants are claiming. She would be a great Khloe Kardashian for Snatch Game though.

You can tell Ru and Michelle really loves the UK contestants, and they look like they're actually enjoying themselves.

Am I allowed to say Gottmik has fairly obvious female form and curves? She definitely throws a wrench in drag queen jokes. The show is respectful: any comments about female bodies Gottmik is nowhere in the shot. She trying pretty hard to snap it up with the other girls. Not a huge fan of the open mouthed drag face she gives.

That's all my Gottmik talk. Surprised there's not a dedicated thread.

by Anonymousreply 125February 6, 2021 3:25 PM

Was a bad episode overall with Tamisha being in the bottom two and eventually being sent home topping (bottoming?) it off. Kandy was bad in the disco number - you could see her choreography was off as was her costume - and her runway look was horrible in design and presentation. It actually took me a few moments of rewinding to understand the dark streaks on her face and collar were intentional, meant to mimic the design on the "dress". Her lip sync was just as bad. As for the other queens, I've had enough of Tina, Gottmik and Utica. If they're not repeating their styles week after week (Tina will come out in yellow and red, Gottmik will be half-naked to show off their new boy body, Utica will be "wacky" although not in a funny and/or charming way), they're out of their element. And surprisingly, none of them are hardly called out on it, except Utica who has been told to stop acting up on the runway but apparently doesn't know how NOT to. The only saving points were the majority of the other queens who performed adequately in the disco challenge or who had good looks, but nothing very over the top. (Only other high point was watching and hoping Denali and Rosé might make out.)

Gottmik is good. She's here to play and have fun, she wants us to know she has a sense of humor about herself. I'm just thinking about this because drag allows for gender being a joke or in the context of the show, a game [sic]. A lot of trans people don't seem to feel that way. At least on the internet.

RDR is essentially a game show, and it’s rigged as badly as Twenty-One in the 1950s.

I would bet my dog’s life that they’re shooting these out of order. The ones with Loni Love shot in one day. The ones with Nicole Byers on another day. That means the queens know the exact order of their finish, and they are actually shooting shows where already removed queens are “competing”.

One last comment. I don’t care how young these queens are, they ought to know who Donna Summer and Diana Ross are...and know that they’re not dead. Even the old bitches, Tina and Tamisha didn’t know who Charles Nelson Reilly was.

Someone line Trinity "the Tuck" who has numerous procedures to make the "illusion" more permanent with face fillers, fat injections, etc. She's just one of many queens who have had these procedures. Versus queens who use couch cushions to pad and overfill their natural lips to create the "illusion."

I think the first few seasons of the show were enjoyable because it seemed that the queens were on a much more level playing field. Sure, you had Shannel with her expensive "costumes" and Chad Michaels transforming into Cher 2.0, but it just felt more "fair." Not that it was more fair, it just FELT more fair as a viewer.

r137, I don't know how to answer that...I worked with Detox pre-RPDS, and she already had pec & butt implants and silicone implants or injections in the soles of her feet so she could wear heels for longer periods of time. I have worked with other drag queens with plastic surgery to enhance the "Illusion", but my take of it was it was just to facilitate the preparation and removal time, as this was their full-time job, and it was never for RPDS exclusively.

I also did a commercial for a prep-type drug (that particular ad was haunted by deaths, and was never aired) with a Southern transexual queen- she had confided to me that she got all her surgery just for performance, and it was easier to live as a women, than a man, because the way she looked. However, she really didn't want to be a woman. Sadly she died from complications of a butt implant procedure about 6 months after filming. The first death was one of the guys committing suicide 3 months after filming- that was tragic, because he had just gotten married right before we filmed the spot, and he and his husband seemed so happy.

R140 Well, I just think the answer is that a lot of the queens are coming into the competition with unfair advantages. Not just Gottmik because she has no dick. If anything, it's not Gottmik's genitalia that's giving her an unfair advantage, it's the fact that she's coming from significant amounts of money with an expensive designer wardrobe. Unlike Tamisha (for example) who made all of her outfits. Don't get me wrong, I can't stand Gottmik!!!

by Anonymousreply 142February 6, 2021 6:38 PM

It's not just that she has no dick, it's also the fact that she has a clearly female body, even without her breast and T shots she still looks very female. It's more obvious when she's standing next to the other queens. Trinity/Detox and other queens who have had excessive cosmetic plastic surgery done to their face and body still look like men, but just freaky looking men. Even with all that surgery, fillers and botox none of them look like they are any closer to fulfilling the "illusion" than any other queen.

I agree about Gottmik's advantage being more about money, it's the same with more & more queens each year. I think the other problem with that is we don't see any "work" getting done on these looks; everything's premade & done outside the production. The workroom barely gets used for physical labor aside from putting makeup on & the occasional dreadful mini-challenge. Now half the episodes are spent showing rehearsals & prep for another shitty group performance. The disco number was not worth it. I'd rather see queens creating their looks in the workroom, which they used to show a lot more.

I agree Gottmik shouldn't be on the show. Parading your tit-cut scars doesn't make you a drag queen. Everything about him is female-expressing, and he's enough of a cause célèbre with plenty of money and support behind him that he's torquing the season. Another final four, of course, certainly - the show wouldn't let her go no matter what.

A solid tight tuck is part of drag and when you have a contestant without that issue, they have a strong advantage. I really hope this is a one and done with this Gotmikwhatever experiment, and the EVERYONE IS TRANSQUEERBLAHBLAH fad will have died down in a couple of years, because this really does throw off the balance of the show. Why not go for the drag king circuit? I could see that working much more for him/herm/them/snore. Mik can always get her tits stuffed back in, and something tells me that's going to happen once she has her moment of dubious fame. COVID couldn't have come at a better time to ignore her off the map.

Yeah, fuck Mikk and fuck this season. Drag Race was so great in its early seasons where we saw people we never saw on TV before with a sharp, cutting sense of REALNESS and serving T.

Now we’re all supposed to smile and pretend like the sky is purple as a biological woman marches down the runway in a merkin in a drag competition. No. Doesn’t work that way.

I’m not interested in another season where the critiques are given to eleven men and one woman two feet shorter and a hundred pounds lighter than them. That’s boring. And why is Drag Race supposed to be a personal Make-A-Wish handout to a rich straight woman with severe mental illness?

the interview above with tanisha is interesting. she refers to her now-deceased drag mother and said "But she was a fierce boy in Atlanta that could stand against the trans girls or anybody."

this was probably 30 years ago or so. but were trans girls in atlanta a different camp from gay drag queens?

[quote]I don't see how a male drag queen could have pulled that exact same look off.

See also: Carmen Carrera. Not exactly sure what his parts are like now but he was intact back in season 3.

But in any case, I don't think "fishiness" has ever been a requirement, regardless of what Visage says. They want to see versatility (which Mik hasn't shown yet) and talent more than who can make a pretty girl/believable woman. I think Mik will get the cut when the numbers get low enough that she can't be just safe. She didn't have the greatest outfit or performance, but it was better than the ones who landed in the bottom 3.

[quote]Tamisha lived every word of that lip sync.

Only the ones she could remember. They were both sloppy.

Really bad episode. Denali and Rose are watchable and Tina looked good for once. Symone was a bit more in the background and looked fantastic. But surprisingly not a great dancer. Olivia was like the real Tina Turner - just exuding joy and sexiness.

I don't care about Mik. The idea that a great tuck is so important is just not true. Some queens hate to tuck and always wear full skirts, some queens don't have much to tuck and it's not that hard - just painful. And a few others see it as the most important part of the illusion. Mik is not more feminine looking than Trinity or Detox, Jaida Hall, Valentina or JuJu (in Drag) or Kenya Michaels or Courtney Act or Mariah or many, many other former contestants. I don't see any advantage about that. Mik's aesthetic is not fishy or feminine anyway. The BIG deal to me is that she's a WOMAN.

And yes Aquaria wore something similar to Mik's look too. But better. And she WON the challenge. Because Aquaria has a lot of......style and TALENT.

Does no one remember that Courtney act didn't pad? He was one of the most natural looking "women" on the show. Ever. As Katya would say - that's a biological woman! Still Courtney was called out on her meaty tuck. His wig and makeup were flawless Aussie or California girl natural beauty - but she has no breast or hip pads and wears bare legs....because she CAN. Also her body looks like a thin tanned man in a slinky dress. That was far back as season 6 and Shane definitely wanted to win. He's a true non binary and wasn't about to change his look though. When he wanted to look more shapely on the bottom he wore a skirt with structure that flared out. But he didn't pad his hips. I'm boring even myself. But one more thing....Yara Sofia. Another bare leg goddess - but this time with real female shape. A tiny waist and curved hips and the most beautiful ASS. She had gorgeous body and skin wearing a tiny bikini without hosiery, closed shoes OR pads. That's not fat injections. It's silicone. Very well done. Cheaply in Puerto Rico. Fingers crossed for Yara. His female illusion was very convincing the more naked he got. Far more convincing than GottMik. Too many of the contestants AND judges are dysmorphic. The fun art of female illusion is being displaced on Drag Race over time. But look at Symone. That's a bald headed skinny dark skin black man with nothing but confidence and brains and innate sexiness and camp. He makes me BELIEVE. Not that he's a woman - but that I don't know or care! Slow week for Symone. That shiny boy better win this thing. He owns this Factree.

Speaking of silicone injections and implants - here is Trinity the Tucks response to someone who said that anal bleach might burn her hole.....

The pageantry systems used to serve more or less the same function as far as helping queens further their careers. Before S1 premiered, I remember that Victoria "Porkchop" Parker was considered a front runner due to her pageant success (along with appearances in two drag documentaries).

I'm sure most viewers of RPDR US aren't watching the UK edition, but airing these shows back to back really highlights how overproduced the US edition has become. The UK version is so much more enjoyable because the drama has been more "fun." For example in the most recent episode: production being shut down due to COVID-19, one contestant ripping off another's outfit!!! and RuPaul lost his damn mind over an outfit from H&M. No doubt that all reality shows are produced with a narrative in mind, UK edition is not an exception, but at least they make it SEEM more organic to viewers. It's not nearly as heavy handed as Kandy sucking the fucking air out of the room during every episode about being called arrogant!

I’m not hating Gottmik. She consistently seems to be doing well and has a personality and is funny so I’m fine with her being in the top three. Olivia seems to be coming back a bit while Symone is getting that mid season fade. The fashion is starting to feel a bit repetitive with Symone (although I loved her hair this week)? I don’t know, I’m just losing sight of her. It might be editing. She seemed a bit weak in the challenge.

Elliott laughs like Phyllis Diller. (look it up) He IS depressing, but he turned out that lip sync and it was nice to see. Bitch can dance for real. The dress was great and the moves were sleazy. He's not a bad person. We can see he's a misfit. A lot of drag queens claim that moniker and I guess maybe when they were kids they felt that way. So do most gay men, even non drag queens. But Elliott is just a bit weird and a downer kind of self pitying presence. Glad he made it through this week. He won't be around much longer. There are three tops and nothing in between for the whole season.

The Lala Ri experience was no Jaidynn Diore Fierce.

Utica is going nowhere but home soon. I think he's a mean girl too - though they are editing most of it out, you can see it in his expressions and responses when he's not given what he wants, in parts or feedback. He's kind of scary. Thorgy Thor was a lot like that too, but miles more talented than Utica.

Same with Tina Burner, he reminds me of Robbie Turner. Sketchy as fuck.

It's really a terrible season. Way worse than season 7 or 8.

Kandy did nothing but shut her ugly mouth up a bit in the challenge and throw a bathmat over her shoulders for the runway and suddenly she's in the top 3? This is not unfair judging, it's reality show fuckery. It's extremely transparent. Nah.

I thought that Denali and Rose and Olivia were the clear tops. I love Symone, he turns me on and that outfit was a meticulous creation. Sexy boy/girl that Deborah. The NO PADDING big mouths have yet to sound off about his beaded near naked runway. Pussy got your tongue? Some little titties wouldn't have hurt but the fashion of it all on his sleek shiny body kind of did the work. That beaded box braid wig is a Beyonce world class number - no matter if he did it himself. You better win this thing Symone. ❤️

GottMik is doing just fine. She was funny in the challenge. Her runway look has been done much more memorably by Latrice Royale. All Stars 23.

I'm not a fan of T.S. Madison. That bitch has always been crude as fuck and yes we know that you're a hooker and a porn performer. Burns me that Ru has NEVER let a former drag race contestant on the judging panel, but invites someone as classless as T.S. Madison. We know why.

TS madison is a transexual prostitute and porn performer, who over time became famous on Youtube and other formats. Really crude basic online fame, but she's well known. She is soon coming out with her own reality show. My friend has already filmed it. But the evolution of TS Madison did not begin with WOW. I am not calling him a prostitute to be derogatory, that's exactly what he was. A tranny and then a post op transexual. Prostitute and porn performer/personality.

r255, and they had a similar situation to the Kandy being called arrogant situation with someone being called something slag (I can't remember it right now), and it was more watchable and delightfully shady.

This episode was a big ball of meh. I hated Utica humping around on the ground...but you know when a queen pronounces that acting/singing/improv/dancing, etc is her specialty, she gets the fail edit. Olivia, Symone, and Mik in the top 3 now.

The major problem is that the improvisational challenges are so bad to begin with. Ross Matthews is not funny in the slightest and it's highly doubtful the queens are coming up with their own lines or told "just do whatever you think is funny". Every now and then, one of these challenges might produce a chuckle or two, but the entire concept and dialogue of the Bossy Rossy Show (ugh!) was unfunny - trying to make fun of The Jerry Springer Show and similar should be rife for parody but this was just bland.

by Anonymousreply 322February 15, 2021 12:02 AM

This isn't your first Bossy Rossy show R322. The judges should go. Michelle is gorgeous and loves the queens and really is the mother of them all. Ru is having a small renaissance. She can feel her legs again. But Carson and Ross are both terrible. Since when is being a 50 year old white queen a qualification to judge acting, fashion or comedy? And no, Carson knows nothing about fashion. Ross knows nothing about comedy. His comedy is self pity and some weird throwback to fat queeny men crossing their legs funny.

Put Nicole Byer in a perma spot even if Michelle has a fit. Then give another one to a cute young ethnic gay guy, or just cute and young. Keiynan Lonsdale or Priyanka from Canada's Drag Race! Or even one of those figure skaters with insight - Adam or Johnny Weir. Or let Jamal Syms judge every week. He's sexy and sweet energy. Or get a beauty influencer if they can find one who doesn't drug and molest young straight guys. The point is Ross should go. And Carson is worse.

The cast of season 13 is not helping the Bossy Rossy show.

Do you really think that someone "wrote" Kandy Muse's lines for her R322? She said - and I quote - shut up bitch. And then got lots of praise for it. The fuckery is not in being scripted - but in the editing and judging.

Kandy is the protagonist of the season. And one of the stupidest of all time. The SHOW is keeping her around. RPDR is not above eliminating a GREAT contestant in some weird heartbreak. They just think we will bring them back for an All Stars Season, 2 years later. I guess that was fair before COVID, because all the contestants toured and favorites rose above their elimination order. Alyssa is still your lovely 5th alternate. But now....the great Jaida Essence Hall spent her whole win and drag race reign in lockdown. She really was one of the best winners in many seasons. Don't fuck with people Drag Race.

The fandom cancelled gorgeous Jeffrey Bowyer Chapman for his weird RuPaul imitation bitchery. Boy left twitter and won't be back for a second season as host of Canada's Drag Race. (Ru remains loyal to him - a good thing)

Ross and Carson are seen as harmless. They are the least effective permanent judges on the show, ever. And going strong. Their words are written for them. That's exactly what Ru wants. Michelle he trusts. Otherwise he doesn't want funnier or more insightful judges, not as long as he wins the Emmy every year. (He choses only unattractive white gay men as permanent judges) He beats the Amazing Race. But he'll take it. Bossy Bussy.

R323 I'm sure Kandy did come up with the bitch line by yourself, thinking it would be hysterical. My basic point was I doubt these challenges are truly improvisation, with the queens getting getting insight and suggestions from the show especially since EVERY reality show tries to push certain story lines, even to the point of creating dialogue.

The improv challenges would be better if they taught (eyeroll) the queens a BIT about improv BEFORE having them do the challenges. Just because you're funny, doesn't mean you'll succeed at improv. I'd like to see the show get a comedian with improv skills (I dunno who'd be willing to do the show -- maybe someone like Amy Poheler) to do a little improv workshop with the queens to warm them up. The improv challenges are just as bad as the Rusicals for me.

R324 I'd be ok with the show keeping Nicole Byers and Loni Love on as judges, their critiques have been much better than whatever Carson and Ross ramble on about. Carson is more tolerable to me than Ross, because Ross gets too "inspirational" with the queens.

I think what you're seeing is hours and hours of footage edited together and it doesn't always allow for a natural progression of time for the viewers at home. For instance two events that are shown one right after the other on air, may have happened hours or days apart in real time.

I have not seen this particularly addressed on Drag Race, but on other reality competition shows I've read interviews were the contestants will say that what is shown on TV is a fraction of everything that actually happens and that it may not always happen in the order that it is shown on TV.

WoW, how soon people forget. They've had Devon Greene (the unfunny Betty Bowers) Rita Rudner and the wonderful Cecily Strong coach the queens before in comedy and improv. Not to mention Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth! Kathy Najimy was a bitch once directing. Kathy Griffin tried to help them in comedy once too. The seasons blurrr. Nobody can learn improv in an afternoon anyway. I always find DL funny that way. Expecting so much from unscripted material. Most always go for the gross misogynist cheap shit. Whores and loud mouth whores. And their mothers. That's why Jinkx and Bendela and even the gross BoB stood out so much. They had other takes on being a character. Most of these queens are not sketch players. But a funny person who likes to play with personas can do improv - whether they're a drag queen or not. But what's Ross's excuse? He's holding his fat face and showing his ankles and giggling? Unlike reality show contestants, he gets paid.

Priyanka was an out of the box suggestion, but he's a very smart and fast guy, a proven performer and Drag Queen winner. He hosted a very popular kids show in Canada before becoming a drag queen. And then he won Canada's Drag Race. And he was funny all the way through. Attractive dude. The poster who says he is terrible is the same racist hate filled fuck pig that hates everyone darker. Priyanka as a guy on the judging panel is what I meant. (Because Ru would NEVER let Trixie or BOB or Bianca take a judge's seat. Piggish RuPaul. Any one of them would be great. Lots of other popular alumni [Katya, Alaska, Willam, Allyssa] would NOT make great weekly judges.)

But racists got to race, so as soon as I typed Priyanka, R332 was on the ready. Fucking freak who thinks he runs these threads. I don't give a rusty fuck about Priyanka, but there was a solid reason for my suggestion as a judge. R332 would automatically dismiss anyone of color, except for the ones he views as white. (see Vangie, ha) He likes minstrel shows like BOB too. But NO to black queens or brown queens or Asian queens. Fuck that fat white man @ R332. Tired of that fuck being here.

And yes R345, Canada's Drag Race was many times more entertaining. At first glance I thought who are these men? Then, they transformed into something more than instagram queens or pageant girls. Because you can't make a living being that in Canada. The girls were club performers. So we saw the best LSFYL and challenge performances on Drag Race for many years. And unscripted friendships and rivalries. The runway, not so much. But charming and inventive, like the OG Drag Race.

Canada and the UK do most things better. Facts are facts.

The problem with Elliott and most drag queens in general is they try to be "outrageous" in what they say, but more often than not, it doesn't translate well when read in print, especially online. I don't think he's racist or transphobic, but his comments were either ill-informed or bad jokes which were misinterpreted (or possibly a combination of both). If any of the more comedic queens had made the same comments, there likely wouldn't have been as much as a fuss.

Is it too early to discuss the Snatch Game preview? From the trailer it looks like Gottmik is Paris Hilton, Utica is Bob Ross, Denali is Jonathan Van Ness, Rose is Mary Queen of Scots, Tina Burner is Richard Simmons, Symone is Harriet Tubman (that's a choice!). I couldn't make out who Elliott and Kandy are playing.

Based on the previews, Utica's impersonation looks AWFUL so I am guessing she'll be in the bottom.

See RATS the Rusical on UK Drag Race for a much better experience. It's a great concept, well done. They all sing their own parts. And the Eurovision track is a fucking HIT. UK Hun. Bing Bang Bong.

In case people forget how much better things can be, here is 1/2 the cast on episode ONE of Season 12. What a great season it was. I'm That Bitch. This ain't even the Rusical. Just an introduction.

Bitch Perfect is probably still the best Rusical of all time.

This weeks performance went on forever. It was a disaster musically AND in the queen's execution of simple choreography and costuming. They were all terrible. Denali has some mad cute dimples though and Rose can actually sing. Tina Burner is no Alexis Michelle. That's saying something....

Kandy was a triple threat this week - she stunk in the Rusical, the runway AND the lip sync. I honestly think if it had been any other queen, she would have received harsher critiques especially for the Rusical. She messed up the choreo a couple of times (no big mistakes, but you could tell she messed steps) as well as also messing up the lip sync of the lyrics. Her runway look was my least favorite for design/style and make up. Not one judge commented on its awful shape - that is it had no shape other than "blob". And her make up was horrible. As mentioned already, the lip sync was about equally matched but at least Symone had movement and flow while Kandy mostly flopped around on the floor of the stage.

Then there’s the queens who join some of the numerous houses of Davenport and O’Hara, who’ve rarely produced a successful contestant, with the same tired moves, same tired body suits, same tired quotes...mediocrity handed down from generation to generation.

And then there’s the long rumored local legends who somehow never managed to make it on the first twelve seasons, yet everyone is aghast when their 2AM Midwestern shithole drag doesn’t hold up in the harsh glare of the TV lights.

Now, we have biological women competing which, at the very core, is antithetical to what the show is about which is men creating the illusion of the other gender.

R488 I've always found the wardrobe/costume situation on the show to be fascinating, so after last year's Madonna Rusical I did a bit of digging to figure out what they bring costumes for and what they don't.

Generally, the queens *do not* bring costumes for Rusicals. For Rusicals, they have costumes chosen (large -- medium - small) for each role and the queen that gets the required role picks the costume for that role that fits them. According to Monet X Change, I believe, this is what happened with the costuming for the Cher Rusical. They also have seamstresses and wardrobe people to take care of the fittings. HOWEVER, I'm not sure how this works for All Stars. I know that queens on All Stars 3 had to bring their own costumes for Divas Live.

For mini-challenges and main challenges, of course, they bring their own costumes.

I believe that for design challenges the queens (sometimes) get extra help from seamstresses to finish the outfits. I'm not sure how much help they actually provide, or if it changes from season to season. For example, in season 1 the queens had assistance working on their Absolut outfits, iirc. Othertimes, they can bring their outfits to their hotel and work on them overnight. I'm really not sure how much help they get with regards to each garment, which fascinates me. I mean, they probably couldn't assist La La Ri with her outfit...

Trixie and Jan are not having it with Tina's critiques this week on the new episode of the Pit Stop. They mostly suck Ru's clit, but I enjoy it when Trixie says the show is rigga morris.

Do the queens know before the season starts what the maxi challenges are going to be so they can have their outfits ready? I mean, I can't imagine they can whip these things up in 24 hours. I have to believe they know well in advance.

Well, except for Kandy Muse, who looks like she puts all her stuff together in the span of five minutes.

by Anonymousreply 508February 21, 2021 10:16 PM

R508 From what I can gather, it depends. The queens get a list of about 20 "themed" outfits for the runway and mini-challenges.

I think that maxi challenge outfits are sometimes on the list, sometimes not. They have a costume department that they use for some challenges, as well, so it just depends. I listened to an interview with Bob who said that for the Bitch Perfect challenge, for example, they used a mix of their own clothes and provided outfits/accessories. They were basically presented with a bunch of items from the costume department and they could to incorporate pieces of their own wardrobe into their looks, if they wanted to.

I do think Tina deserved to be in the bottom because Elliott, Utica, and Olivia were better than her IMO.

This is one of the reasons that some queens with no fashion sense or hair skills sometimes look better in the the maxi challenges and Rusicals R508. They are essentially provided wardrobe, makeup and hair. It's quite noticeable. Look how great Chi Chi, Thorgy and Derrick Berry look in Bitch perfect, compared to their usual personal style choices. It's not that the wardrobe is more expensive, it just often suits them better. No winner has ever looked as bad as BoB on the runway. Week after week. Now he has money and his own stylist and makeup artist and he still looks like SHIT. Because he has very bad taste. He wore tights and pumps and a thrift store short sequin jacket for his BEST DRAG look on the final episode of season 8. With some hacked up 30 dollar wig, blue eyeshadow and garish red lipstick. He's atrocious looking and should not be judging anyone. No one takes him seriously but he gets good guests. Peppermint looks like a biological woman this week on Purse First. Bob looks like a pervert enjoying Halloween, as always. Very Gacy. Very much that, as the queens say.

Raven slipped on to Drag Race UK this week, looking skinny and gorgeous. Perfect hair, dress and makeup. Hard as nails that one, but still a vision.

by Anonymousreply 512February 21, 2021 10:36 PM

He's fucking rich and successful. Could Bob look any worse??? Peppermint is ready to take over hosting the Wendy Williams show or revive Oprah in the afternoons!! Or back to Broadway. So pretty and funny and so over BoB thinking he knows better. Peppermint is going to win All Stars 6! Like Shangela and a very few others, she could be on TV weekly, in any mainstream supporting role. I ❤️ PeP.

GotMikk I can see has a bit of talent, but Kandy seems to think putting on pretty dresses, glittery makeup and trout pout is all you need for drag. Such a difference from earlier seasons where you had pretty seasoned and battle scarred queens. It doesn’t seem like the same drag.

Gottmik killed another performance/runway again. You may hate her, and maybe she doesn't belong on the show, but she's there and she's killing it. And still, Denali outshone her. Elliott was great in the challenge and runway, and his taxi outfit was so much better than Tina's. (Don't care what redditors/the tween/frau fanbase think about it.)

I thought Utica was 1000x better than Rose who performed well, but completely emotionless. The minute Rose stepped onto the runway in that ORANGE outfit, I thought she had lost to Utica. Even Symone showed more emotion with her being ashamed of her singing voice.

Kandy is there because the producers thought, hey "big girl" + "reminds us of Vanjie" = FAN FAVORITE. No one stepped back to realize just how unlikable she is.

Also, can we not cross-contaminate the UK race and this thread? We're not all always caught up on both and sucks to get spoiled when you're specifically avoiding one thread but read the other. I should know better, but still hopeful after all these years.

R565 Interestingly, I don't think the whole trope of annoying New York queens became "a thing" until season 8 with Bob, Acid Betty and Thorgy. Of course, there were always queens from NYC like Bianca, Milk, Jiggly, etc. but after season 8 every fucking season had to have a trio of New York queens who just go ON and ON about how they're from NYC and how yaaaas mama they're the best because in New York you have to be what?! Sickening. It's just gotten old! Yes, I'm sure to be a successful drag queen in New York you have to be good, because there's so much competition... but from what I've seen on the show, there's better drag across the country.

Season 10 didn't need five NY queens. I'm sure the RPDR world could have waited for Dusty Ray or Yuhua to appear on a later season.

Last year had five NY queens as well, and three of them were among the first six eliminated. The only ones who were there at the end were the Canadian and the one who was disqualified before the season even began.
