Okay last one

Nice long interview with Queen Bianca, where they mention that part of the pre-taping included a shared crown scenario with Adore & Bianca (!)

Adore in a Misfits shirt? Life is wonderful.

And you know I was *wondering* if they'd do a joint crown thing. Hadn't heard any rumors of it.

that would've been kinda cool

though it would have been weird for Courtney

And you know I was *wondering* if they'd do a joint crown thing. Hadn't heard any rumors of it.

If this had happened, it would've involved Laganja.

no lols for you, that was terrible

Really disappointed that during the wedding, Joslyn didn't tear off her gown to reveal the nine white bikinis underneath.

xpost I'm just getting started!

I lied, I got nothing else. :(

Oh: Jinkx's makeup was a little, let's say, minimalist.

There was something odd about the headpiece & the wig, it looked like it might have need to be built up with more wig? idk. made her face look very small

the dress was neat though

I think she was going for a Statue of Liberty thing, with the green dress and the spiky crown.

PS the Alyssa's Secrets with Shangela are hysterical.

lol'd hard at Ben winning a gift certificate.

A couple of chin-stroking pieces

I kind of agree with the wire piece, but it was probably the most fun finale they've had so I don't really care?

I sort of wish the finale was more of a two parter project runway kind of deal where they have longer to put together something for a challenge and really show their own brand of drag but it's not going to keep me up at night

Yeah same here. Also, let's be frank, the ONLY reason they just don't go ahead and do it live is because of the potential for fuck-ups and raunch.

totally

though who doesn't want to see that, let's be honest

The AVClub writer is horrible.

I'd say crown Ornacia

Stevie if you don't go see this for us I will hunt you down

The Heathers are back...

A Stacy Lane cameo would've been EVERYTHING.

That's pretty painful to listen to. Drag queen music isn't very good is it. Are there any other than Divine and "Supermodel (You Betta Work)" that were succesfull ?
If Boy George counts then they all have a lot of work to do.

Oh I forgot Sylvester and Kevin Aviance.

I can't think of a single RpDR alum music video that I've thought was remotely listenable.

I like Willam & DWV's parody songs the best of any of the recent drag queen songs

I've heard Adore's stuff is good?

but idk

I've heard that __Tatianna__'s stuff is good. I listened to a couple, and they didn't scream TURN ME OFF.

I liked Adore's first single, I haven't heard any more yet

Interesting article here that Jinkx just shared out -- she's one of the interviewees.

As an aside, it's interesting to see Dela's boy last-name being used, since he'd been so careful about obscuring it for so long.

This is too adorable and gives me faith in humanity:

Aw neat!

And a new Jinkx interview

http://blogs.villagevoice.com/music/2014/06/jinkx_monsoon_free_download.php

Party.

I met Adore briefly at Toronto Pride! She was really sweet and went out of her way to come give me kisses even though her team was waiting for her. She said "they're gonna kill me but I don't care!"

Hey VG forgot to mention here that THE BEATDOWN IS BACK

Jinkx, having fun with Fred

Flintstone or Durst?

All and more. (In actuality, Schneider.)

Love it !
