I'm trying to watch all of the new "Meet the Queens" and they're all aggressively boring so far

actually eureka and nina might be good

Might have to wait for the premiere for it to click.

Shea Coulee is the winner, calling it now

So, um ... thirsty for like half this cast.

Although lol at what Pearl hath wrought with her septum ring.

I'm trying to watch all of the new "Meet the Queens" and they're all aggressively boring so far

I've been watching Charlie Hides' videos on Youtube for some years. He does impersonations of many female legends, including recurring sketches where Madonna, Gaga and Cher compete for the biggest gay icon title. I really hope he gets to Snatch Game!

Damn, this snuck up on me. Season premiere tonight!

Going to Badlands in Sac tonight to see Delta Work host the premiere party -- and Raja & Aja performing after :D

A+

ok apparently VH1/Logo don't put it on their website or their apps even 12 hours later, and I can't find it anywhere online, aggghghghh

Yeah I was wondering about that. (I will therefore refrain from spoilers...for now.)

I had this all worked out where I'd spend Saturday mornings for the next 3 mos watching RPDR but NooOOOOOoOOoOOOOOooooo

yeah can't find it anywhere still

untucked is up, lol

We need VG's report from the field from last night.

ok found it it was good! Does anyone else think they know who the #14thqueen is?

I had a couple of hunches but can't be sure.

i cant type much on my phone atm
but it was good! my friend wondered if it was tatianna? delta work thought maybe coco montrese

I feel like the shoe closeup at the end of Untucked should be a massive giveaway to us but I'm still racking my brain. I can't but think it would be a recent queen, though -- say last season, MAYBE season 7.

i need to rewatch - the bar had 20 small tvs with no single BIG screen so i couldn't catch a lot of detail

ps couple notes on the after-performances of Aja & Raja at the bar last night:
Aja is a great performer, high energy & very polished but by the same token not terribly unique? i love her look though, hope she does well this season.
Raja awesome obv. Weird to see her lipsyncing for tips, thought she didnt really go in for that? But she has grown her hair out & had a full grey blowout that looked so good I forgot it wasn't a wig. She knows how to work the crowd & they were eating out of her hand the whole time. Not high-energy, just lots of stalking & posing as you wpuld expect. Luv huh.

Also: depressing amount of Ann Taylor separates, low heels & nasty wigs among the local queens. u_u

here's my Raja pic

ok i rewatched

what if it's jasmine masters

it's def a skinny black queen
& she looked tall going up the stairs

ru loves the messed up queens & she burned the internet down about how she didnt get a fair shake or whatever

i hope it's not but also get yr popcorn dot gif

sorry for vomit

untucked, loooool at them coming for Nina. ok girls.

Yeah that turned out to be a verrrry bad prediction on their part!

Jasmine, eh? I could see that.

reddit's insisting it's cynthia lee fontaine but I don't get any sense of that at all. I think they all think that because there was a shot of her ass as though that's some kind of clue

how awesome was the Gaga 'workshop' in Untucked. Holy shit that was some great stuff.

Yeah she was top notch in both the main episode and the Untucked. Would totally be down with her as a judge through the whole thing!

Would be happy to chat with Peppermint about whatever. She seems like a good narrator for the bunch.

love nina and shea so far

Nina is cool! And I love Sasha I think.
I thought I liked Charlie before but maybe not anymore.
Trinity is terrifying. That is some death's head plastic surgery jeeeezus lord
Eureka drives me up a wall, she needs to dial it down about 20 notches.

there's also an NPR "on the set" type segment where you can hear what sounds exactly like Cynthia Lee's voice

my thoughts:

wow I never in a million years ever thought something would endear me to Lady Gaga even a little bit esp after the Super Bowl Tiffany's commercial but I found myself kinda liking her in this
Charlie is so terrible, nothing in the episode made him seem terrible but I get the sense that he is going to be deeply terrible, just y'all wait
I'm surprised Sasha gave Aja all this hype because she seems really fucking boring and forgettable
Eureka is trying too hard and it makes me sad, like why don't you just be nice instead of trying to be a catty asshole
Farrah is already getting on my last damn nerve
the weird clumpy makeup on Peachy Nina's chin was v distracting!
holy shit I laughed so fucking hard at Ross Matthews this episode, actually the whole judge's panel made me laugh harder this episode than I have ever before

i heard charlie did a blackface character in live performances

Yeah after watching Charlie I got a strong nope vibe

Hated how she singled out James Mansfield in untucked

Charlie's funniest thing was the mumble through his age bit. Beyond that, so far: *shrug*

Otm

aja's make up looks like modelling clay, yeeeikes that is some shiny trowelled on nastiness

Maybe learned some tricks from fellow queens bc she didn't look as bad on Friday night

I only just started watching this first episode but wow that Ronnie is fishy, I think she can go far.

Sasha looks like Acid Betty, Jr.

Kinda yeah!

kimora black out of drag is heart-eyes emoji

So what do you think of the Kimora Cheekbones DRAMA

Also loved how Valentina's 'coming out' wasn't being gay but being a drag queen.

Although lol at what Pearl hath wrought with her septum ring.

I did like Gaga's advice to Aja re: just that.

Gaga otm re that

lol @ kimora's oh wait I forgot I had my lips done, she's trolling so hard.

Ronnie is hella fishy <3

i almost forgot: WTF @ Farrah Moan having a reveal look and not using it!?!?GIRL. Total rookie move.

i was just thinking abt pearl's septum ring, i honestly just think it's a matter of pearl having a septum piercing back when they were idk slightly a little more punky/hipstery and now they are just common af

also "oh, wait, now i remember, I DID have my lips done, yeah" lmao gurl GURL stop
