And I keep having to question how much of my love for Pearl was based, as per the Bianca read in the recap, on how fucking hot she was as a boy.

Loved this season, but Violet winning is the most wtf since the Other Tyra. (BTW Logo TV you kind of spoiled me by having a thumbnail of Violet getting crowned on the video page.) Do not at all get the reaction to Ging Is Mean movement, and I know that all reality shows boil down to popularity contests, but I don't think any of the critical things Ginger said over the course of the season was beyond the pale or at all remarkable.
The solo lip syncs were a terrible idea, I just watched the backup dancers most of the time.
― Falconetti Pot (Leee), Wednesday, 3 June 2015 18:24 (nine years ago) link
solo lip-sunch would have been worth it if ru had cleared the rights to songs people actually knew & enjoyed, rather than using original songs nobody will ever care about.
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Wednesday, 3 June 2015 18:48 (nine years ago) link
yeah the songs were a bit weird

SPEAKING of songs.

I wonder if they will only include queens from the last 4 seasons. I'm thinking Alaska, Alyssa, Adore, and Katya are a lock to be on it. Would love to see Ongina, Max, and Joslyn Fox too. And of course Willam, but I doubt she'd do it.
― LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 30 July 2015 17:02 (eight years ago) link
Willam wants to do it! - but idk if Ru wants to. We'll see I guess

Vivienne Pinay was on Face/Off this week (out of drag as Michael)
He got a makeover with his partner & got married on stage which was cool! but omg the makeover was sooooo bad. I felt awful for him! He is so gorgeous out of drag & he looked sad & gross :( He should have kicked the artists off & done it himself!
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 12 August 2015 05:12 (eight years ago) link
oh and it was kinda extreme drag makeup too which made it even worse.

So G1nger M1nj dumped her husband for another guy. His ex was gracious if not hurt.
Then today his ex packed his remaining things for G1nger and told him he could come get it while my roommate and him went out.
They came back and G1nger and his new boyfriend stole all of his stuff except his clothes. TV...couch...bed. everything.
Someone was warped by being on this show.
― Hammer Smashed Bagels, Wednesday, 28 October 2015 01:13 (eight years ago) link
Sorry for the misuse of pronouns.. I'm tired.
Just really kinda shocked. And ex-husband has gone public w it so it's getting ugly
― Hammer Smashed Bagels, Wednesday, 28 October 2015 01:23 (eight years ago) link
I just checked upthread and reconfirmed that you were the one who had posted that you knew her and her husband, to be sure -- and damn, what a mess.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 28 October 2015 03:12 (eight years ago) link
yeah. I feel terrible for the hubby. His roommate also ditched out on him to move in with Ginger and a friend so now he's on the hook for the rent which he can't afford.
― Hammer Smashed Bagels, Wednesday, 28 October 2015 03:21 (eight years ago) link

Yes !! While I wait I've been rewatching all the Seasons with my bf who hadn't seen any of them and it's been so much fun!! So many amazing queens, creative challenges, jaw-dropping looks, fun personnalities, hilarious quotes, and fierce lip-synchs! Needless to say he's just as hooked as I am.
― LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 1 December 2015 22:07 (eight years ago) link
Wouldn't RuPaul's Christmas Ball from 1993 actually be the "first-ever drag themed holiday special"?
― cory artangel (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 1 December 2015 22:12 (eight years ago) link
Yeah I thought that too.

What brought these vivacious vixens together? We don’t want to spoil it, but we will say it has to do with the first challenge of Season 8’s premiere episode

raven just carries herself like a winner. i fully understand why tyra won but i am glad that raven is so fucking classy that i completely forget tyra

Loved the first episode. Lot's of great personalities. I can already remember most of them off the top of my head. Makes me excited about the new season!
― LeRooLeRoo, Wednesday, 9 March 2016 04:51 (eight years ago) link
I am sooooo feeling Bob the Drag Queen. Like, in all aspects. And Acid Betty omggg. Loving these grown New York queens, basically. Fuck yes.
― Flamenco Drop (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 9 March 2016 05:07 (eight years ago) link
Derek Barry didn't show terribly well in untucked... and Bob is packin a healthy amount of competitive shade.
― Flamenco Drop (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 9 March 2016 05:09 (eight years ago) link
is derek barry the right name? britney. whatever her name was
Derrick Barry I think. He did better than I thought he would in the challenge though. I mean it was simple, but I didn't expect him to have humor.
