Drag Race Riots

*Leatrice:* When does the new season start?
*Remora:* Honey, they’re on like week 6 already!

Remora: Well, the season is over. I can say truthfully it was not what I expected. If I had expected it, I don’t think there would have been a Drag Race Riots!

Flobesha: we’re glad tyra won! that aint no bullshit!

Remora: Let’s concentrate on the good first. Season 2 launched many appealing media figurines: Shangela, Mystique, Sonique, Jujubee, Jessica Wild, Raven, Pandora, Tyra, possibly more.

I wish the eliminations had been more merit based and that the challenges weren’t so ridiculous and irrelevant to drag. Like last season, I finished this one wishing there were more performances in it, and also that I knew what the contestants’ normal acts are. Give them a chance to do what they do.

Flobesha: yes i too feel that there should be more emphasis on drag in a drag-themed show

Remora: In the future comes Drag U. What that’s gonna be like is anyone’s guess. And casting is already starting for season 3. An inside rumorist tells us that season 3 is to be the last season of RPDR. Who knows?

Blogging season 2 was fun and we got more into it than expected, which became a strange experience when the show took so many strange and unappealing directions. But we met a ton of great people and made the viewing experience a much better time for ourselves, and maybe for a few other people too. See you next season? Ask me later. I shall always think kindly of you all.

Miss Raquel Welch: actress, drag queen.

                i am comforted to know that there are queens on other planets, which is where this video came from.

myra breckinridge is a dish and don’t you ever forget it.

we recently reported a provocative development in the race to become america’s next drag superstar. this tantalizing information emerged from an unexpected source: the upcoming new show on Logo, Drag U!. a promo was released, featuring some of our favorite contestants from both seasons of RPDR — including 2 of this season’s Top 3. notably absent? one tyra sanchez. on top of that, raven was shown asking ‘thought you had seen the last of me?’ and all of the girls seemed to be reading from the same script, giving the sense that all of them were non-winners making surprise returns. well, to answer your question, raven, no we really hadn’t thought we’d seen the last of you, since we mostly expected you to win. and juju? well her bookings calendar obviously isn’t packed solid either.  but here’s the most telling fact of all—the drag u! promo video is suddenly nowhere to be found! someone yanked it—was it the producers? did they realise their mistake a little late, in yet another public relations blunder? we sometimes wonder if the show is run by ill-trained monkeys. if tyra’s the winner (and the rumor mill is bursting with word that she is), we’ll know for sure that the answer is “Maybe!”

What can I say about Juju…?  Juju is witty as all hell, can read a bitch to filth, and shows Kimora Lee Simmons what she ought to do with her damn face.  She also has mutant super powers that enable her to act like a total bitch, fuck her on camera challenges to hell, and still have people think her shit smells like White Diamonds perfume.

 
I love Juju.  Case and point.  I love Juju even though I see her sneaking people off to the bar to have a bitch session about their fellow drag queens, drag mothers, et al.  I love Juju even though she’s Tati’s best good friend and then tells Raven she wouldn’t feel right losing to Tati.  I love Juju even though she hasn’t put in a damn performance worthy of making it past round three.  I love Juju even though Tatum was right about wearing pink lipstick with a bronze gown.  I love Juju even though she didn’t defend Tati to The Mean Girls on Tati’s final episode.

Juju has that certain something that makes her irresistible, and I would love to hate her for it but I can’t.  

She’s Juju.
