OMG Nebraska is so hot he looks like Alexander Skarsgård.

i just learned the most amazing bts gossip
Did u guys know that Shannel & Derrick Barry used to date?

how awesome is that

Bianca generated a lot of controversy at Montreal Pride last night. During the outdoors show she was hosting, she joked about Blair Saint-Clair's rape and rape in general. I thought it was shocking in a Bianca kind of way, but a lot of the 12 000 plus crowd was offended and booed her. Fierté Montréal made an official statement today to appologise and dissociate themselves with "some of the content that was said last night".

i was at the pride show but left before the rape comments - bianca definitely on brutally top form, making cruel/hilarious digs against all and every comer...

Per VG's comment there, Race Chasers is unsurprisingly now a totally essential listen. The episode with Ongina guesting was next level for the background detail there.

i am still kinda outraged that ongina didn’t actually get to be a spokesperson for MAC! jerks

her story abt seeing Shanel for the first time & asking if she was a host was adorable

Latest Race Chasers great as ever, and of course more behind the scenes stuff in general (Willam says that Sharon didn't shower on her season but that she was into it and they made out -- Alaska sounded unsurprised).

Meantime!

I'm catching up Race Chasers and lol at the interview with Shannel where their connection drops and reconnects after like 10 seconds and Shannel is STILL talking.

yeah everything about that interview was pure gold

honestly i didnt think i could love her more but Race Chasers has given me a whole new level of appreciation

Alaska and Willam are a perfect pairing, because one is a total acolyte and the other a total skeptic and they’re both equally smart about how the biz works

exactly. i think as well it’s a great match bc they both seem to have a pretty amazing work ethic in life, not only for their own drag, but performing in general & gigs of any kind so it’s not like 90% of podcasts where they think the idea & their personality is enough, and then just faff through it. they’re both actually really trying to provide good content while still being themselves & it shows.

I'm going to this https://bushwig.com/ this weekend and am gonna see Alaska, Sasha Velour, Aja, and Dida Ritz, and maybe Thorgy? also Lady Bunny

oh and Pearl is djing lol

Best quote from todays Race Chasers, was Willam on Rebecca Glasscock:

“That’s not even fashion. Dont’t call it that. Those are CLOTHES.”

Hahah yeah that was great.

It was interesting when they pointed out how for at least the first two seasons everyone was mostly off-the-rack with their wardrobe choices but now most queens wouldn’t even walk into the ~workroom~ in anything off-the-rack let alone on stage.
(Unless you’re ChiChi DeVayne)
(and I say that from a place of love)

My god, I think I've found the most shamelessly negligible of all showbiz awards...

Yaaas!!! Thank you @GoldDerby Awards!!! #DragRace snatched the award for Reality Competition Program and Mama @RuPaul snatched the award for Reality Host!! 🏆Come through!!! pic.twitter.com/KcgWPzUO0N

My challop: "Come through" is some weak-tea catchphrase.

went to Werq the World last night in montreal
great show (although give the ticket prices, i'd sure hope so)
Aquaria, Valentina, Violet Chachki, Eureka, Asia O'Hara, Kameron, Kim Chi, hosted by Bob the Drag Queen

to everyone's surprise (?) violet chachki stole the show
though i gotta say that one of eureka's numbers was amazing (and i hate eureka)

aquaria was great, really inhabits herself

asia did a piece about dying butterflies

Might have been said before but Aquaria is the Valentina dream realized. She really exposed what Valentina was lacking this last season.

This is where I approve of Leee’s display name kthxbye

ha i didn’t notice that before 👍🏻

Ta!

Also, picking up on Sean's post just above, Violet is starting to really come into her own here a couple more years down the line. She and Katya did the latest Fashion Photo Ruview and my girlfriend and I think she pretty easily stole the show:

My girlfriend also adding that in terms of look and absolutely cutting right to the chase and telling you what she thinks, she feels Violet has got some classic Boy George vibes about now.

otm

Eureka vs... Lisa Landry from Sister Sister

that's a thing now

what a world

?

There's no fight. Eureka inserted herself into a situation when she should've just sat there and ate her rice.

She pretty easily stole the show

Violet has got some classic Boy George vibes about now.

Totally. She is doing amazing in these.

Geopolitical impact by one of our all-stars!

Morgan McMichaels: no biggie, just hurt herself punching Nazis.

The full triptych is amazing

Morgan McMichaels wearing an "I PUNCH NAZIS' shirt during a gig, then punching an actual nazi who tried attacking her and THEN having her cast stoned is today's mood. pic.twitter.com/YfAcD1E4Mu

Ooh nice find. PS I wish I could wear that tee in good faith!

morgan is a badass bitch i love her

Legend.

AS4 cast is out, do even we care still about AS?

That's a lot of Drag Race for one year.

And a Christmas special too?

I am excited to see Trinity again, though!

g g gGia

Absolutely

oats will be felt

I wish they had waited a year before AS4, the line up feels a bit lacklustre and I think part of it is simply timing

I think it's a great cast for the most part, but I agree they are milking that cow dry. Makes it feel less special to have an AS every year.

As much as I love them, calling back Latrice and Manila for another AS is redundant imo. Replace them and Farrah Moan with Nina Bonina, Shea, Ongina and Mariah and we've got a perfect cast (I know it's already been filmed).

i dunno - AS 1 was weird because of the team format, i think giving them a second shot is fine
