soldierboy is killing me
can he stay on the show, and be detox's mascot? CAN THAT BE A THING PLZ
I'd def let him kill me.
Also, I only just a few weeks ago put together that Michelle Visage was in Seduction, so it was extra sweet to hear her song put up as a LSFYL.
― cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:01 (eleven years ago) link
I looked her up on Wiki to find out who she was supposed to be, and that was the first time I'd ever heard Seduction. V cool

Oh, and Jinkx's mom crying was the emotional highlight for me.
― cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:33 (eleven years ago) link
Er, Detox's.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:33 (eleven years ago) link
xxpost totally, soldierboy worked those pumps something fierce too
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:34 (eleven years ago) link
yeah the mom moment was basically rivers of tears on my couch
No, I meant Jinkx's stage mom crying because he long ago gave up any hope to fraternize with the younger crowd. That sort of got to me.
― cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:40 (eleven years ago) link
oh yeah, that was really touching too. he was an interesting guy

Indeed. And thanks re: which mom, I was all "Er wait." Yes, dude's a treasure.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 23:20 (eleven years ago) link
And boom, top 3. And I agree Alaska won that round and as soon as I saw it was Yma Sumac for the lip sync I was all "Jinkx survives" and so it proves...
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 05:01 (eleven years ago) link
Meantime hmmm indeed. Also interesting to note in this interview how Alyssa fesses up to being a Jinkx fan!

i'm waiting for eric to start the drag race alumnae dance singles poll, when is that going to happen eric
― ampersand cooper black (elmo argonaut), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 14:58 (eleven years ago) link
i'm not saying any of the music is particularly good but if this show is pretty good at getting its fans to buy singles on itunes
― ampersand cooper black (elmo argonaut), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 15:06 (eleven years ago) link
Taking advantage of the market. (Hey, why not.)
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 15:14 (eleven years ago) link
Meanwhile Jinkx ruling every roost from over the weekend, whether solo:

having more & more affection for Alaska as this thing goes on
she's really grown on me
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 21:09 (eleven years ago) link
and Ru's point about her pulling off the suit/pants in drag was key
She's great! I still want Jinkx to win and then some but if it's Alaska, no complaints. (If it's Roxxy, derp.)
There were some great red carpet clips with Jinkx and Alaska in the promos for the awards last night. Alaska as Not-Sharon matched with Jinkx AS Alaska. Her imitating Alaska giving GPS directions had me roffling for a good two minutes, it was so note perfect.

Also c'mon, this exists:

And Jinkx just now on FB. Yeah, I think I'm ride or die with her for life now:
In the heat of everything. Amidst all the criticisms and all the fan adoration and all the craziness, the one thing that stays the most important to me is the texts of undying love and pride from my youngest brother, Jacob, that mean the most and give me all the strength I need.I love you Bug.
I love you Bug.

On the one hand, it's nice that there's still a clear villain going into the final 3. On the other hand, I hate that there has to be a villain going into the final 3.
Sort of shocked that Alaska called out Jinkx on the runway to go home, but maybe it was intended to light a fire under her going into the LSFYL.
Beautiful editing on the Untucked ep as Jinkx went from thinking Roxxy was complimenting her to realizing she was, yet again again, reading her.
― cacao nibs (Eric H.), Wednesday, 17 April 2013 04:33 (eleven years ago) link
Oh, and Alaska has Miss Congeniality in the bag I think.

Getting a big time Nancy Boys vibe from that cooking demo. (Nancy Boys being the premiere and as far as I know only drag variety show on Minneapolis public television.)

Alaska is growing on me. I like Jinkx the best personality wise, but I will say I don't think she's winner material. I would just prefer she were my friend above any of the other queens.
― homosexual II, Wednesday, 17 April 2013 16:58 (eleven years ago) link
also Roxxxy Andrews is a pretty benign villain. Phi Phi was far more annoying.
― homosexual II, Wednesday, 17 April 2013 17:00 (eleven years ago) link
eh roxxxy is just one of those people who confuses meanness for wit iirc
― ampersand cooper black (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 17 April 2013 17:38 (eleven years ago) link
There's been some image control on Rox & Detox's Twitter accounts this week, but I still blame selective editing for some of the nasty the former displayed ... or at least the amplitude of it.
― cacao nibs (Eric H.), Wednesday, 17 April 2013 18:01 (eleven years ago) link
So we've got tonight, recap next week (I assume) and then the finale in two weeks...
