AS8 - The Fame Games (w/ Mano Agapion & Nicole Byer)
This is a headgum original.
Oh my dear, holy hell.
She's back back back back again.
And if you don't know what I'm talking about, hold on.
Let me tell you, you're listening to the one and only RuPaul's Drag Race recap podcast.
Just hold on one fucking second.
I'm monogafian.
We are the only outlet for drag that you can enjoy.
And I am here with the diva the goddess, the shantous of comedy.
The one and only founder of the only Drag Race podcast,
Miss Nicole Byer.
Is Simee Ainico?
Did you watch the Mario movie yet?
Hi.
No, not yet.
Nobody will go with me.
I'll go.
I've already seen it, but I'll go again.
Was it good?
I loved it.
I loved it.
Okay.
I love a superhero or not superhero.
What the fuck am I talking about?
I love a video game movie.
I love.
You love Sonic.
You love Sonic.
I love Sonic.
So, Sonic 2's on Paramount Plus and I almost cried yesterday.
I was so excited to see it.
But one thing I turned it right on.
Right.
Okay.
So, one is the better movie.
It is an origin story.
It is a story about a little blue critter, maybe with ADHD,
who goes too fast, I can't make friends.
And I'd really...
You connect.
I connect it.
It's a funny movie.
It's a funny movie.
Yeah.
It's very funny.
It's very funny.
The second movie, here's the thing.
They get caught up in this thing where they can't escape and I have to do this dance.
And I'm like, Sonic and Tails are so fast.
Right.
They're not getting caught by humans.
Yeah.
And I was like, we truly...
We forgot.
We set up something and then forgot the rules of the world.
Because it would have been great if they took a reason to be like, oh no, they took away your
shoes.
You can't run.
Or like they took away a thing that makes him run.
Or even if Jim Carrey literally stole his mojo, Austin Powers 3.
I was like, that makes more sense.
I also didn't like that it was a buddy movie in the first one.
And then it became a daddy young boy movie in the second one.
It was a little strange because Donut word is his friend in the first and then his dad
in the second.
Yeah.
And I don't have any friendships that have evolved from friendship to daddy.
Yeah, daddy.
Oh, man.
Do you want to be my daddy?
I'll be your daddy, but you have to go to bed on time.
Oh, no, that's hard.
I went to sleep so late last night because you told me about silo.
Oh, I'm sorry.
And then I started watching silo.
Yes, I can't believe you started watching it.
You know, anytime you recommend an Apple TV plus original, you watch the light in your
friend's eyes go dim because they're like, diva, I don't watch Apple TV plus.
Nobody watches Apple TV plus, but I did.
And I loved it.
Now in the third episode, I'm like, wait a minute.
Or no, I'm towards the end.
I was like, oh, I'm not even in a third episode yet.
Don't tell me.
Well, I'm not.
I'm not.
Okay.
Never mind.
I've seen the second episode.
Okay.
Well, it's becoming less about the two characters you learn about in the first.
I know because of some circumstance.
And I'm like, but I liked them.
That happens all the time when like a pilot is perfection.
And then it's like, well, now it's a show and we're going to change it.
Like, no, we're going to change it.
Change it all around.
Change your address.
Me me change it all around.
Change your costume.
Change it around.
Oh, costume.
That's what it is.
I love it.
Oh my God.
Bitch.
You waste all of your valor.
Keep your wig on, bitch.
Keep your wig on, bitch.
Well, Nicole, we had the joy of watching this together last night.
So many hours of drag race because Paramount plus gave us episode one episode two.
Yes, the untucked one, untucked two.
Which are now vital.
I cannot wait to talk about what?
Untucked are now vital in fact, because that's my first complaint.
They've edited out the suspense out of the episode.
And now you have to watch Untucked to understand how the girls voted, which I think is bad.
Yes.
Drama writing.
Well, I was just like, I miss it from the episode and it bums me out.
But then the minute this episode started and Alexis Michelle starts crying.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I was like, this is now iconic and it's so, oh, thank God.
I'm so happy you did.
I pulled it up.
It's literally fucking perfect.
I can't.
It's perfect TV.
She's.
I want you to dramatically deliver this at some point.
It's perfect.
I mean, they just.
I was just wondering how you all would perceive me and if you would perceive me well and you
did.
And I know you're about to go home, bitch.
And it's definitely you.
But I need to take your tears and put them in my eyes so that I can think about.
But Narya tear fell from her eyeball.
Oh my God.
Tissue pushing up the water air, but never did any waterfall from the eyes.
It is so funny.
Oh my God.
Remember when that one lady calls out Tiffany parlors like you ain't cry like she's like,
where are your tears?
You ain't crying.
Where are the tears?
Do you like crying?
I'm crying in my soul.
Um, that is truly a perfect response to where the tears you're not crying.
Yeah.
Well, I'm crying in my soul.
Leave me alone.
Because Michelle continues to be the out of touch icon that we need.
Um, can we talk about real quick opening?
Yes.
Every round the world.
All stars season eight.
Yes.
Mama ruin a pussy cat wig that she ripped right off Raven.
Yes.
Fully delivering a monologue all over the world where cows even have digital billboards.
Yes.
I didn't believe it.
This cow munching.
Munching munching.
Munching munching said RuPaul.
I just thought.
I counted the digital billboard.
I could not believe it.
I mean, no, and then the stadium.
Oh, I am.
What?
The stadium.
Go, go, go.
The stadium.
Okay.
You have it paused on the stadium.
Yes.
It looks like everybody is wearing onesies.
Yes.
And they have a banner.
Go, go, go.
Winner.
And it's the weirdest onesies.
I don't even know if it's real.
It might be like, yeah, I made.
This is AI.
No AI.
It is like little people.
Why old?
And as you do in a sports game, you hold a banner that says winner.
You don't want to clarify what team you're rooting for.
No, you can't.
We got to keep it, uh, keep it.
What is it?
What rights free vague?
What?
Yes.
They.
They giddy is the key to cheering on your heroes.
But imagine being at a sports game and RuPaul starts speaking out of nowhere.
You'd be like, wait, what?
This is baseball.
What's RuPaul doing here?
I'm trying to.
I just love the traffic sign that it's digitized.
It's so they picked the funniest locations.
They went absolutely wild on this.
They, um, they're the craziest people in the world.
And I love that world of wonder says, you know, we just have fun.
They just have fun at all costs.
They don't have a great time.
They're not like this, this one that you paused on.
Let sleeping dogs lie even when they're woke.
I need a transcription of this actually.
Yeah, that is.
This is.
Wait, can you start it from the top and I'm going to write it.
Yes.
Yes.
There I go.
My computer is getting really confused.
Um, it she said, why do you keep replaying this opening?
Yeah.
I'm like a computer.
It's like, why, why, why, why, why?
Okay.
Stop.
I've had enough.
Oh, I have to do the, the, the, the closed captions.
Okay.
Here we go.
I'm trying to make a point.
So excuse my grammar.
Fuck the people who can't take a joke.
Let sleeping dogs lie even when they're woke.
The secret to winning is just be yourself.
And that's an award.
You can't fit a no shelf.
And by shelf.
I mean that big old fat juicy ass.
Why is that the opening all start saying that's it?
That's it.
That's the opening goal.
I don't know why we need that.
I don't know if they're really.
I don't know.
That's honestly iconic.
It made zero sense.
It was like, please excuse my grammar.
Let's excuse logic.
Yes.
That was perfect.
Well, I'm okay.
I'm so obsessed because this is how that happened.
So, Roo was like, what am I doing today?
And they were like, well, you're going to do a monologue.
And she was like, who wrote it?
And they're like, no one yet.
She said perfect.
And then she was like, I don't have a wig.
Raven, give me your wig.
Raven said, okay.
And then she sat down and she was like, actually nobody else wrote it.
I'm sure.
I'm sure.
You've made fun of pussy cat wigs for a decade.
Are you sure?
Listen.
Yes.
There's no other wigs in the building.
I'm wearing it.
I'm fully obsessed.
That is so fucking funny.
First impressions on the first two episodes.
I just have to say out the gate, oh my God, this season is going to be insane.
Fully insane.
And I was telling you, I was like, I'm fully invested.
Oh, yeah.
I was gooped at who went home on the second episode.
I was gooped at the fucking the bottom two in the second.
I was like, wait, what?
I know.
I was like, this is, this is, this is some shenanigans.
This shenanigans.
And it reminds you that this is not all star seven all winners.
This is all stars eight.
This is all stars eight.
Oh, people.
Eight is my favorite number.
And this might be my favorite cast.
It's the best cast ever.
And I know some people are saying like, oh, this all stars more like all bads.
All stars more like all trash.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, these are stars.
These are stars.
These, I mean, it is fun.
I love it.
It's been a treat.
I love it.
I.
It's a, it's a beautiful treat.
And we got a million looks.
I talked about the workroom entrances.
So we won't retread that.
Okay.
Okay.
Because you know, there was three weeks where I had to vamp and I covered every little aspect
of all stars eight I could before it was dying.
I'll tell you something.
RuPaul's Drag Race does not treat their content like 90 day fiance.
90 day fiance gives you zero breaks ever.
I know.
We just go from season to season.
There are zero fucking breaks.
Zero breaks.
Like, can I have one, one week off?
And they say, no, it's a learning channel.
You got to learn today.
How many off shoots are there by the way?
Like how many off shoots are there?
Oh my God.
So we have 90 day fiance before the 90 days, 90 day the other way.
The British version, Love in the Caribbean, a 90 day story.
I think five.
Oh, and then the single life six.
Wow.
And then, oh, the family Chantal.
Do we count that?
Oh my God.
And then we have Darcy and Stacy.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
It's so many to keep up with.
It's a lot of work.
And thank God you're doing the work over at 90 day bay on Patreon.
Dang.
Over on Patreon, me and Marcy Jarrow, it's a fun time.
It's a good time.
But back to Drag Race, I love that Raven said give me my way back.
No, I would like the way back, please.
I need it for the fashion show, fully.
And since this is one of a million looks, we're going to try to go as fast as we can,
and burping and burping these looks.
You know how it goes.
Yes.
But again, stop when we have to talk about one that is absolutely insane because there
are a couple.
Oh my God.
This is an iconic fashion show.
I'm just, I'm really, I'm excited to talk about it.
We have famous then looks from before today, which is any look when you think about it.
It is any old look.
And honestly, fun.
It was fun.
This is Alexis Michelle giving old Hollywood, what do you think?
She does this weird thing when she starts her runway where she like breathes out.
She's like, here I go.
And I adore it.
Honestly, this is a stunning look.
It's a stunning look.
I, the turban, the, the pants suited for all the like cross in the front, like the fur
on the wrists.
She looks elegant.
Yes.
This is like the epitome of Elaganza.
This is a chirp for me.
It's a chirp.
I don't love her attitude, but I love her garment.
Listen, I'm here for the attitude because she didn't know how the girls were going to
perceive her.
I know.
And she, you know, I mean, look, anytime, imagine if you cried that way, anytime you
just were unsure how well, how you'd be received at a social gathering.
What did she think was going to happen?
She thought the girls were going to stone her.
You're going to throw rocks at her.
Yeah.
Kick her, kick her in the butt.
Also just out the game.
Like, by the way, I don't like that you're here.
Like, is that what she thought would happen?
Maybe.
I don't know.
I don't know if the fandom has been kind to her.
Of course not.
Um, I'm not saying that's good.
So maybe she translated that to the queens?
Hmm.
I don't know.
Here's the thing.
Alexis Michelle is a perfect human.
Never change.
Alexis Michelle never changed.
Cajun among the trees.
Oh my God.
Homegirl came with a brand new face, brand new body.
Yes.
I am here to show it the fuck off.
Mono, this is really pretty gorgeous.
Absolutely gorgeous and stunning.
The hair, the makeup, the everything is perfect.
Yeah.
She said I'm going to rob all my Vegas sisters.
Truly.
I'm going to take every single costume ever made in Las Vegas.
Sure.
I just really like it top to bottom.
I have no notes.
No, there's no notes.
Hi.
It's very like 90s supermodel.
I love it.
Classic, just freedom 90 George Michael music video shit.
Yeah.
Also like pulling from beyond 90s because you know 90s is like also referential to other
decades.
It's just, I think elegant and timeless.
It really is.
Now, Heidi in Closet gave us hump de drag de dump de.
So I was creeping crawling on her Instagram this morning and she's a doll.
She's a porcelain doll.
I wish she had done a black porcelain doll instead of like one of the like ash white ones.
Because it did read a little eggy to me.
I thought egg.
But yeah, I thought it was a little hump de dump de but I love the dress.
I love the top part of her makeup.
I just wish she had done a black doll.
You know?
Why not?
Yeah.
Do a black doll.
I didn't get dull and I don't get like so like the top half of the doll's face cracked
and she's a black woman underneath.
Is that what I'm left?
I don't think she read that far up into it.
I think she was like, I'm going to do my makeup the way I do my makeup.
And I'm going to do a doll on the bottom.
Buck you.
I think that's.
Buck you.
Buck you.
Buck you.
I take care of Heidi.
I love Heidi.
Me too.
Perfect person.
I will say I like this outfit.
It's a chirp.
I wish she had done some doll walking to let us know it was a doll.
Yeah.
I think she's yeah.
I think she's trying or taking their limbs but I agree.
It's a chirp for me.
Missus.
It's a chirp for me.
It's really pretty.
Oh wait.
Kahanah was a chirp.
I don't think we chirped her burp.
She's such a chirp.
It's clear.
Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp.
Oh my god.
This is really beautiful.
Beautiful.
The color.
The cut.
The poof poof on the head.
It's just beautiful.
The red hair with this like pinky purple.
Amazing.
Just chirp.
Oh.
This is the prettiest I think I've ever seen Mrs. Kachamos.
I agree.
I agree.
Really pretty.
Stan.
Nasha la paz.
I'll say this.
She just this is giving me woman.
This isn't giving me very draggy drag.
I agree.
It's giving me first wife.
First lady.
Yeah.
I'm like do you remember Deja Skye's Chanel shoulder pad look?
You were there in person.
It was such fun.
I was there in person.
I was like this is drag.
This is like a beautiful cut.
It reads Chanel.
It's really pretty.
I know my sign.
My shoulder pads put it over the top.
This to me is like off the rack.
Yeah.
Woman.
She's pretty.
But she's got to do her drag.
Very pretty.
And I'm going to say a light chirp.
It's not a burp.
It's not nasty.
No, it's a chirp.
It's just fine.
You just pull this off put on a different lady and you're like oh yeah, let's go to
the store.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Let's go to the store in the 1950s and buy a can of corn for a nickel.
Some shit like that.
For one nickel.
One nickel.
Okay.
Wait.
Candy Muse giving a RuPaul.
Reference.
A roof rinse.
Roof rinses.
I love this.
The hair is sickening.
The dress is really pretty.
I would have raised the belt a little bit.
I know it's smart.
I know why it's placed there.
But for her body, I would have raised it a little bit.
Yep.
But also that's just me.
That's my opinion.
But also she looks sick.
Right.
Like this is, it's so pretty.
I think Candy Muse is so pretty.
Her makeup is truly one of my favorites in the game.
And I like that it's just like really like expansive.
And she always the way she like makes this like a truly like a color scape.
Her face is a color scape.
Yes.
Her face is a color scape.
These little coney cones in her hair.
Yeah.
Also, I'm biased.
I am a huge Candy Muse stand.
Me too.
Me too.
I think she's so funny.
I think she gives it to you every time.
It's perfect.
I hear for it.
Me too.
Can't wait.
Darian Lake giving Ren Fair.
But first, a bucket of water fell on me.
Um.
I will say.
Okay.
Fine.
I'm not a little Darian.
I see where we came from.
I'm seeing the journey.
But I, the hair is a little flat for me.
Um.
Um.
And it does look a little const, Jimmy.
It looks a little bit like like Ariel after she gets her legs and she marries the prince
or whatever.
It's just like a little.
It's not rich.
It's not camping away that I love.
It's just like party city.
Not to be rude.
This is just my opinion.
I'm really excited.
A little party city.
But I get it.
Do you know?
Parts of it are gorgeous and parts of it are infuriating me.
So I'm going to give it a light burp.
I'm yeah.
I think I have to give it a burp.
Monte Carpeberly bills.
Giving Cleaverly beer.
She is a stunning girl.
She's so pretty.
Yes.
Stunning queen.
Stunning girl.
Just stunned, stunned, stunned.
I love her.
I like this.
I do too.
I think it's really pretty, really fun.
I do not like the boots.
I don't really like the chain of it all and then like an open toe.
But it's a chirp.
It's a chirp for me.
I can't burp it.
It's pretty.
It's pretty.
It's one of her best looks she'll wear in this chair.
Yes.
Ooh, James Mansfield.
This is such a fucking chirp.
I do know my friend was Mexican.
Yes.
I love this like ode to her heritage.
It is also done in James Mansfield's campy way.
She's a fucking star.
This is adorable and I genuinely love it.
It's stunning.
I have no notes.
So pretty.
It's amazing.
Yeah.
It's really cute.
Yeah.
Her face and mug look really right and correct and dumb.
Yeah.
Really pretty.
And I don't think I've seen her with black hair.
I like the black.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, yeah.
Again, I've never seen her with black hair.
Yeah, usually she's a blonde.
Blonde.
I'm a bimbo.
I'm James and I'm boo.
I'm a, wait, I'm a blonde.
I'm boozy or am I doozy.
Wait, Jessica Wilde.
This is my favorite one right now.
We saw Jessica Wilde at a bar in like Highland Park.
Yes.
And do you remember?
Yeah.
Yeah.
This bitch is, if you can see her live, she is so good.
She's so good.
I had such a good time.
She's great.
Jessica Wilde is one of my favorite queens.
She's my winner.
You know, her is that chicken in her season is like, Conak.
Caca, dawdle, dawdle, dawdle.
This look is iconic.
She looks stunning.
I mean, Nefra Titty, Egyptian goddess.
Yes.
Yes, Nefra Titty.
There are too many motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking head.
It's a, it's a chirp.
This is such a chirp.
This is such a like, oh, I just love that she came out so strong.
I'm so excited to see what Jessica does this season because I'm obsessed.
Jimber.
This is a chirp.
I love an O to Marilyn Monroe.
I love that the dress is blown up like she's walking over a thousand, you know, greats
or whatever.
I will say, I am kind of devastated.
You wanted a butt joke.
Her full ass wasn't out.
Like a huge big, like big titties, big butt.
Like I'm really sad that the butt wasn't out.
Big juicy butt.
But that being sad.
That's just me.
That's me always going for a joke.
This is also, this is elegant and campy.
It's beautiful.
It's really beautiful.
And yeah, I mean, the construction.
La la rie.
Yeah.
I mean, come on.
I gasped when this came out.
Unbelievable.
This is so, I don't know what kind of fucking fabric it is.
I mean either.
But it's beautiful.
It just dazzles.
Yeah, the camera is doing this fabric favors because sometimes the fabric like this doesn't
quite appear on camera, but it is perfectly showing up on this camera.
Stunning.
The cape is beautiful.
The dress is beautiful.
Her makeup is beautiful.
I will say I do want a bigger lash.
Yeah, she's doing the small lash thing that some girls are doing these days.
I'm not here for it.
I don't want our dels.
Okay?
Unless we're fucking triple fucking stacking them.
Yeah.
Let's leave them at the drugstore.
Let's go.
Let's go somewhere else.
Get them from Amazon.
Bitch, get them.
Give me a big old floor.
And you're a strong ass man and you better put a fucking broom on those eyes.
Okay.
Put a broom on those eyes.
I'm sorry, bitch.
You are not, you are not Gottmik.
You are not Violet Chachiki.
You need to put a big lash on.
You're not plastic teard.
Brooms.
But that being said, beautiful.
Okay, we're going to determine the rest of these looks.
There's a million.
But first, silence Nicole.
We have to take a break.
Bringing back my break.
Also, Mono, can I drink coffee that has sat out all day and then sat in my refrigerator
for two days?
Yes.
Is there like cream or milk in it?
No, it's black, black, black again.
This is an Americano.
An iced Venti Americano with six shots of espresso.
Oh, I know that you do that.
I only drink like three fourths of it.
Also when I ordered it at the drive through, the guy was like, so wait, you want six shots?
Yeah.
And I said, yes, let's die today.
I feel like you've done more before.
I one time was with you when you did like even more.
And then I think you put liquor in it.
I know.
I just, I love.
Okay, here's the thing.
She's got ADHD.
If I actually want coffee to work for me, I got to kill myself.
I got to fill my, I have to like inject it into my veins.
And the way I do that is by like six, eight, ten shots of espresso.
That's why you stay up all night watching silo.
That's what it does it to you.
I had zero coffee yesterday.
Oh, really?
This is from like three days ago.
This is in my refrigerator for two days and then out for a full like day yesterday, I
had zero coffee and the night before I went to sleep at four AM.
And then I just like couldn't fall.
I was like, I have a second wind.
It's awful mono.
I live in existence where I'm a constantly, China sleep.
I'm with you.
I had an anxiety dream that I woke up too late for this podcast today.
So did I, model.
So did I.
And then it like I looked at my phone and it was only like 10 30 and I was like, oh my
God.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I could have more sleep.
And then I slept a little too long and then was five minutes late.
It's fine.
That's nothing.
But yeah, I had a dream that I was late for this zoom and this is another just a fun,
you know, dreams are crazy.
And then I had to, for some reason, Mike laptop was outside in a hot, sunny parking lot.
So like, no, I was like, it didn't even work.
But I was, but for some reason I was trying to log in to do the podcast with my laptop
in the middle of a hot, sunny parking lot.
I was like, I've got to do the fun.
Nicole's waiting.
And that is so fun.
And the anxiety dream also made it where I couldn't find the zoom app on my laptop.
It was very funny.
Oh my God.
Mine was just so okay.
Do you do this thing where you're like, do you lucid dream or like, I think it's called
like lucid sleeping where you're sleeping.
It's not restful and you're aware of everything going on.
Maybe it is.
It depends.
I think no, no, no, no, because I think for me, mostly I know I'm in a dream, if that
make or no, no, I do not know I'm in a dream.
It just feels bad and weird.
And then like, then I wake up and be like, Oh, thank God, that was a dream.
So I don't think that's lucid.
Because it is when you know you're.
You're like, you know, you're like, aware, you're sleeping.
Yeah.
Lucid dreaming is like, you're aware you're in a dream lucid sleeping.
I believe is you're aware you're sleeping.
So for three hours last night, I was fully aware that I was sleeping, but I wasn't actually
sleeping and it was it's insane.
And then this morning I was sleeping and in my sleep, I was like, you're oversleeping
currently.
You have to wake up because you're late for this.
And then it takes everything in me to wake up.
It's really wild.
And I don't know what's wrong with me.
Ta-da-da-da.
You're pussy bitch.
Fun.
Fun.
I'm my brain is crazy, but we have too much drag race to talk about.
We got to talk about famous now.
Okay, we'll do these ones quick.
Famous now.
Alexa Michelle doing Kim Kardashian.
No, this was smart.
Oh, it's a burp for me, but I'm just like, this is a chirp.
I think she did it well.
I think it was like a ballsy look to fully cover your face at a, you know, on drag race.
I'm just going to burp it because I'm like, what are we saying?
We love Kim Kardashian.
What are we saying?
What are we saying?
Listen, we can love Kim Kardashian.
We can.
I see nothing wrong with her.
Okay.
No, I find my mind.
When people like she's a bad influence on girls and gives an unattainable standard, I'm
like, what do you mean?
She has billions of dollars.
That is unattainable.
Who cares what she does with it?
The money's unattainable.
I'm not a fan.
So she uses face tune.
So she gets surgery.
It's because she's got money.
Yeah.
No, I'm here for her coin.
That's the unattainable part.
But I'm just not a fan of her.
And then when she told everyone to get up and work, I said, well, friend, what are you
actually doing?
That's what I mean.
I can't get that out of my brain.
It was pretty egregious.
If, if I do say so myself, if I do, con, I'm on trees giving them those ex chirp.
Listen.
Who ever thought this is going to sound like a read or shade?
I know.
I don't think I ever thought I would be excited to see what con, a monteries for a runway.
Fully.
But now she is the fucking girl.
She is.
I'm down with everything she's bringing.
This bitch.
She's the most reliable fashion bitch.
No, it's not.
This is beautiful.
She's the most reliable fashion bitch in this cast, maybe.
She really is.
Yeah.
And it's a different fashion.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, you know, GG Good was, I think, very like fashion, but it was like runway.
Yeah.
Simone, runway.
Kahana Montrice is like drag fucking fashion.
Tea.
And I'm not knocking Simone and GG.
Like I love and got Mick and Violet.
I love me a runway girl.
Yeah, just a different brand.
But I also miss old school drag.
Yeah.
Drag.
That screams drag.
It is drag.
It is big and bejeweled.
And thank God the Vegas girls are helping.
Okay.
Heidi.
Love.
I am so confused by this, but I'm still going to chirp it.
It's like a bow.
Here's the thing, Mona.
Last night I didn't like it.
Looking at it again, I actually love it.
Yeah.
I think it's really cute.
I liked the fabric.
Last night I was like, I think it's too much.
I don't know the, but now that I'm really looking at it and it's like in slow motion,
I love the bow.
I love the little trail.
I love the tool under the skirt.
I love the tiered skirt.
I love the Bantu knots, the braided Bantu knots.
I like the makeup.
I think I maybe would have just changed the shoe.
I love love love the makeup and hair.
It is, it is a gag.
It is a chirp.
There's, but I guess this is honestly, this might be like a chirpity chirp for me.
Mrs.
Casha Davis fucking burp next.
Oh, no.
My friend went to Lane Bryant.
She said, give me some of your finest.
Then she stopped a party city and said, let me get away.
I was going to say, she said, give me your finest.
They said, we don't have that.
And she said, okay, I'll take whatever else then.
She goes, okay, I'll just take whatever you have.
And this is interesting because she, in the voiceover, does she not say that she's Chris
Jenner?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then someone's like, wait a second.
No, honey.
No.
That's Liza because Chris Jenner is nipped tuck body by Ozempic.
Like, she's living her best life.
She's not shopping at Lane Bryant.
No.
Honestly though, here's the thing.
I would wear that outfit.
I would wear Mrs. Casha Davis's outfit, but also I'm not in a drag competition.
Yeah.
And I don't know why I feel like you could pull it off more.
I also feel like even if the hair was something else, I don't know.
I don't, I don't know.
Hey, it just, is it, it's not draggy.
It's malware to me.
Yeah, it's bad.
It's not draggy.
Because like, I would truly wear it.
So is that really a burp?
Because I would wear it.
It's a burp for drag race for me.
It's a burp.
Nasha la paz.
You know, gorgeous gowns.
It's stunning girls.
Gorgeous gowns, beautiful gowns.
This isn't very draggy to me.
This is very like, I know it's like an Ode to Donatello Versace.
Yeah.
But again, this is, this, this is like a, like, I would see this at like a premiere.
Like it's just an actress wearing it.
Yeah.
Not for a drag competition, but it's stunning.
She looks beautiful.
It's, it's a chirp.
It's a chirp.
Yes.
And that is, we're learning that her drag aesthetic is just beautiful model.
And that's, you know, that works for some girls.
Yes.
Yes.
She looks great.
It's really pretty.
Condemos giving pink love.
Pussyonty.
I love this.
I love the jacket.
It's stunning.
Although I do think the, like the corset skirt combo could be a little bit more.
But also, I like it as is.
Give it a light chirp.
I'll forget about it, but it's pretty.
Yeah.
Light chirp.
Do you like the hair?
Oh, God, I love it.
The hair stripes.
Oh.
Oh my God.
Oh, it's all come to this.
We're looking at Darian Lake as Billie Eilish.
This is, I, this will go down.
In her story, as the first domestic terrorism act ever done.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
This is my sleep paralysis monster.
Just old Billie Eilish doing the same Billie Eilish from when she was 18.
Oh my God.
I, I, I, I saw there was something, I'm sorry.
I'm just, okay, I'm just saying.
There's something extra egregious about an older diva doing a 17 year old pop star.
It's really weird.
It is strange.
I, I couldn't hate it more.
I couldn't hate it more.
It looks like my grandma is like, I'm going to be younger again.
This, that sounds mean.
I mean, but also it is okay to be older.
It's okay.
Like it's, that's not my read.
It's just like, I don't know.
You know, Drag Race keeps doing like, like, odes to the 70s, like 80s glam girls.
Uh huh.
Yeah, like 80s glam like 60s doo-wop girls because that's Roo's generation.
That's what Roo loves.
Yeah.
I would have rather her pull, I don't know.
Um, maybe Adele now.
Yes.
Yes, yes.
Somebody a little older.
She's trying to surprise.
Maybe she actually listens to.
Yeah.
She's trying to surprise the judges.
And this is also terrible.
This is mall drag.
Again, we went to Lane Bryant.
Lane Bryant is cashing in as the sponsor of the season.
We went to Lane Bryant.
We got some cargo pants.
We got a big old t-shirt.
I just, I, not to be rude.
I'm never trying to be like mean.
I, it was just, it's just, what was, what was more shocking this or Lala Reese bags?
I'll always ask you this.
Funny enough, I think that, but Darien likes to fix more shocking.
It's more shocking.
At least the bags was a little draggy.
It was, it was, I mean, she had a, like a, a, a pencil pouch, glued to her head.
Yeah.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Like it was like a little bit more tricky.
And I'll say this.
I really wish Lala did my podcast and I don't know if I said it, but I was like, I really
wish you it leaned more into the bags.
Like her entrance looks should have been a big bag.
Yeah.
Bully.
I was, I'm right there with you, Nicole.
I could, I can't believe.
Like, well, if I don't see a bag this season.
I mean.
And I'm going to see Heidi's gap teeth all season.
Which I love.
Which I love the brand.
Like let's, I want some branding.
Let's brand it.
Bring me bags.
Give me my bags.
Many bags, plastic bags, trash bags, wee bags, eye bags, any old bags.
Any bags will do.
Monica Beverly Hills giving Kim Petrus.
Sure.
Yeah.
Sure.
This just feels.
Sure.
Yeah.
It's like, it's fine.
It's, it's, it's not wowing me.
Sure.
But also it's not like terrible.
Like I'm not.
No, it's not ugly.
But why do I do it?
There's a light shirt.
It's really.
I'm an aah.
Yeah.
Light shirt, light shirt.
James Mansfield giving JoJo Siwa titty cake.
This is great.
Holograms.
It's great.
This is really wow.
And which is interesting because JoJo Siwa younger than Billy Eilish.
Yes.
This was done in a way that feels draggy and correct.
And I can't explain.
Maybe it's because JoJo Siwa serves camp.
Yeah.
Where Billy Eilish isn't necessarily serving camp.
Right.
Yeah.
I don't know.
It's very funny that there's like a very distinct difference.
I'm like, they're both young references, but this one was done well.
Yeah.
And I don't know, Kaushia maybe took her look a little too seriously maybe.
I don't know.
There's nothing nudging her.
Do you think we wink?
That's what I meant.
Oh, Kaushia.
Oh, oh, oh.
And I don't want Mrs. Kaushia to have this mixed up in that.
I don't want to deserve it.
But in episode two, she'll deserve it.
Okay.
Jasey got getting bad bunny.
I love it.
Mmm.
Chirp.
I'm obsessed.
Jessica Wild, I'm biased.
Me too.
She can do no wrong.
Me too.
Her body is sick.
She looks so good.
I really liked it.
Yeah.
Me too.
Jimbo with the like me dress with the thumbs up hairdo.
That's pretty gaggy.
I really fucking love it.
It's an ode to Victor and Rolf.
Uh, gosh.
I wish I remember.
What?
Is that the Fashion design air?
Yes.
Fashion design.
I can't remember what season it is, but they do these big beautiful dresses that are
like, I want to go home.
Right.
Um, yeah, I love it.
I think it's really smart and really fun.
Yeah.
And well done and executed.
And she looks stunning.
Her like me fell off, but it's still stunning.
I love that they protected her.
It's interesting how the show protects her instead of just being like, look, it fell
off.
Um, well, I think it was Willam that said that, uh, some girls got to do their entrances
again and then totally like or nation.
No, wait, what is her name?
By Vashion.
By Vashion.
Vivacious with or nation like they wouldn't let her do her entrance again.
Of course.
Because they're like, no, that's what we're going to use.
Yeah.
They, there's favoritism in the gals.
You know, it's a TV show.
It's a TV show everybody.
It's producers and they need to do what their namesake is.
Okay.
La la re la la.
This is as bad as the bags.
We cut some letters out of construction paper and we blew them to ourselves.
And like not a flattering body suit.
I guess it's like she's supposed to be naked because only fans is now, but no.
And then if you're going to be my kid.
But her little say the paint is great.
Sure.
I like the shoes, but la la.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm going to give it a little burp.
This is, I'm going to give it a light burp because I love la la.
Yeah.
Got a lover.
Oh my God.
Wow.
We're back in.
We have finally after all the millions of looks and we have more because these girls
have a little dancing number challenge.
They got to do it.
Wow.
They have to do two versions of the same song already torturing the audience with that.
Two versions of a song that was terrible and just a poorly written song.
It was not a great song.
No, it sure wasn't.
It sure wasn't.
It was like money glamour, pussy hair, whatever it is.
It was pretty rough.
Money glamour, pussy hair, shavier pussy, get rid of the hair.
Yeah.
That was the song.
Money pussy.
Give me hair.
All over of there.
Pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy pussy
pussy pussy give it down down and down and mama crown.
Down, down, down, down.
Okay.
We don't need to watch the rehearsal chunk.
We get it.
They disagree on the choreography.
And that's what's going to happen every time there's a choreography challenge.
And guess what?
It doesn't get old.
I like seeing different ways to argue.
Oh yeah.
I love it.
I love also the Alliance talk.
There's some girls here who have been traveling together on the Murray and Peter tours that
are right out the gate saying like, oh, we're going to protect each other.
Like I love it.
It's what is it?
Candy, Jimbo Heidi and Jimbo.
Yes.
And honestly, add Jessica while and that's my top four.
Yeah.
I love that.
I love that.
I'm here for that.
Jessica's my winner.
Who's your number one winner?
I don't know if I have a number one winner.
I just really love some of these girls a lot.
Oh, maybe Candy, maybe Heidi.
Candy's good TV.
Maybe Jessica.
Candy's good TV.
Maybe Jimbo.
There we go.
I just set all my top four again.
Yeah.
Roo looks great in this neon look.
Beautiful.
And a Dena Menzel really didn't get any like I'm surprised they weren't like and coming
today a Dena Menzel and we didn't get the work bitch.
Why didn't we get that from the girls?
I don't know why we didn't get that.
So I'm not sure why Adina's hair person did her fall like that.
Tell it.
Tell it to my heart.
Tell me.
Tell it to your heart.
I just, there is a better way to blend her fall in her actual hair.
You better fucking work.
It's just a little messy to me.
Also she doesn't talk very much.
See how you can't really see the part and see how it gets real thick towards like the
front of her head.
See that little thing.
That's her hair and that's where the fall begins.
This.
Wow.
That's what that's my assumption.
I love that.
I fucking love that.
I will say I do love a Dena Menzel.
I can't believe she didn't do that one time.
I know.
What the fuck.
You I think were in the bathroom or in the kitchen but there's a part of untucked where
she gave a monologue on the main stage that they cut.
I missed it.
Oh my.
It was like it was like be your own person.
I'm usually my own person but one performance I said I want to act like Glenn Close and
it was one of the best performances of my life.
Okay girls who would you like to perform at?
It was wild.
I was like what is happening.
But also gladiator girl.
And I was there just long enough to see Alexis like doing the thing she does which she's
like I like theater too.
I'm really into theater myself.
I love theater and I've watched your whole career.
I love everything you do from top to bottom and everything in between.
She's like you haven't seen her whole career.
You don't know her life.
You don't know.
You don't know Adele Dizzy.
And I'm so mad nobody called her Adele Dizzy.
I know.
She briefly mentioned it but the fact that no I mean I can't I can't with this.
It's part of it's like yeah it's canon to her.
Do you know what I'm saying?
It also wasn't.
She wasn't.
I think the runway should.
It wasn't more catered to her if she's here right.
Musical gee vote.
Yeah and night of a thousand Adele disease.
Yeah and I don't know Adele Dizzy is wicked beauty something.
Honestly I would love a runway that's like Broadway's baby.
There we go.
Let's see something from rent from Wicked from Porgy and Boss that's not it.
Porgy and what.
Or your favorite show in the whole world.
Taboo.
Taboo.
And yes people love asking me is that you crying over the Broadway show Taboo in the road to
show business making it on Broadway a documentary from 2005 documenting the 2004 Broadway shows.
Yes it is.
My favorite part of that story is to like wasn't it like you snuck in at at intermission or
something.
It was the final night of Taboo.
Yeah.
And.
Well we sold out.
It sold out so we were just like hanging out outside.
There was a crew talking to people and they were like do you like the show?
We're like yeah we couldn't get in.
And then Rosie Donald came out during intermission and invited all of the little.
Wow.
The poor people in.
Wow.
We got to watch the final performance of act two.
When I say that was a very formative show for me it really was.
Taboo and drag race were very formative into like who I am as a person.
Yeah.
I am.
Which is.
I fucking love.
A single woman who flocks to gay people and gay people flocks to her.
And she'll nary fuck a single one.
You really are like you are you're like Gandalf for gays.
You really are.
Well I think it started like young.
Yeah.
Very very young as far as I can remember the more feminine boys were like I like her.
And then I was like why like them because I like boys and you seem to like me.
I don't know.
And then in my early twenties I went to musical theater fucking school where I filled with
gay people.
There you go.
And then I was like these are my people.
And then I wish I could find it.
There's this really old picture of me and Bob Bob the drag queen from Barracuda from like
2010.
Uh huh.
No wait.
Yeah 2010 ish.
Where I just look so immensely happy because I'm like a big black queen that looks like
me.
Yeah.
Anyway.
Oh anyway we have to take a break Nicole.
So bring back my break silence.
Silence.
No yeah.
Bring it back.
Get it out of order.
Also I love doing it because it doesn't fucking make sense.
It doesn't make sense.
And it's a tradition we started on this podcast and we'll keep it going forever.
Yeah.
Because we're the only RuPaul's Drag Race podcast.
Oh, so lucky.
Let's talk about this God forsaken song.
Um wow these girls really didn't care about the choreo.
Well some did and some did not.
Some did.
Some didn't.
I will say I'm glad that the look is cohesive.
Everyone looks really great.
We're doing black.
We're doing silver studs.
Everyone looks really great.
Candy's serving it.
She looks great.
Oh that hot kick.
You clocked.
She got tired a couple times.
Great.
Yes.
You clocked but Candy got tired a couple times.
By the end they were using the second performance and Candy was exhausted.
Yeah.
Fully.
Fully but yeah the first glam rock team.
Because if you didn't know the girls do the routine twice.
Which goddamn.
That's hard.
That's hard.
And they're going to use whichever one they want.
The best or the worst for the ever one.
Yeah whichever one if you fall down in one.
Best be sure that's probably the one they're going to use.
Yeah.
I did think Darian lay cat a tough time on this performance.
I don't like her outfit very much but it does match the rest of the divas.
It does.
It is a little it's like Madonna as.
Uh huh.
Um I don't hate it.
I don't hate it.
Yeah.
I didn't have a little trouble with the choreography but it did look like she was having fun.
So I was like okay.
Alright.
You know.
Yeah they all look great.
They all look very nice.
Gorgeous.
Yeah.
Gorgeous.
Gorgeous.
Kind of on trees I did think really fucking was serving.
Oh yeah.
She is a performer.
We saw her in Vegas and we were gagged.
She's amazing.
She's truly incredible.
Most improved by far.
I mean just honestly MVP.
MVP.
I proved most of.
What is MVP?
What is MVP?
The most valuable player?
Um and I guess most improved doesn't usually use an anagram but it should.
Wait what was I trying to say last night and I had a full blow meltdown?
Uh a Megan you're saying you're trying to say imagine dragons.
Oh yeah a Megan dragon and then I just broke.
I think you're saying like a Megan dragons and then it was like you're just you can
you got the J's and the J's were very confusing.
Very very confused.
Oh this is what a money success fame glamour.
Yes.
Now this group was worse.
I think.
Well what was this group worse I guess or better.
Listen I it's hard to tell because the outfits are so disjointed.
Yeah.
Um that for me it was really hard to like stay on task and focus on who's doing a good job
when I was like okay Mrs. Costa Davis looks stunning.
I really like this outfit and I think uh Jimbo looks stunning and they are and then I think
uh James Mansfield looks great and they should be a trio.
Yes.
And then Jessica while la la and Monica are another trio.
Yeah.
The gold and silver mixing is not for me.
Yeah that's a good point.
I mean my bigger issue is obvious.
Okay I know like okay Jimbo and James are missing steps.
But for some reason Monica is missing steps and grimacing.
So like that pulled my focus in the worst way.
Like at least.
Yeah she didn't look like she was having any fun.
No.
She looked very worried the whole time.
Very worried.
I will say la la re was serving.
She was having the time of her fucking life.
Totally.
And yes to go wild.
Yes.
Yes they gave.
Look I.
They really gave and I will say Jimbo I feel like it admittedly is not a choreography.
Right.
But she looked like she was having fun.
Exactly.
Where Monica literally looks like someone just abducted her child.
Like the look on her face is.
Yes.
Where's my baby.
Not without my daughter.
Yeah.
It's wild.
I just couldn't believe it.
And also I'm like Monica.
What movie is that?
Uh.
Not without my daughter.
I think that's literally the name of the movie.
We watched that in school and for the life of me I don't know what lesson we were learning.
Oh it was um it's uh anti.
It's truly a racist anti-Muslim story.
Because it's about.
Oh my god then why did I watch this in school?
Because it's when it was okay to be like racist and bad towards brown and Arabic people.
Because it's about.
Sally feels like Mary's a Muslim man.
And then like.
Oh Alfred Malia.
Yeah I guess he plays like um I'm pretty sure he plays a Muslim man in it and like he takes
the kid back to a Muslim nation and they're like you're a woman you don't have any rights.
It's okay.
He's like he gets to take your daughter.
I'm not mistaken.
I think you're absolutely correct and I wonder if we watched this right after 9 11.
Yeah.
Which is crazy.
That's crazy that the school district was like alright we gotta teach him.
Yeah.
Go teach him.
Gotta scare him.
Because Christianity is normal.
Um.
Okay I will say this.
I wonder if they filmed this before after the Barbie movie announcement.
Because I'm confused about Monica Beverly Hills Barbie like it's so random.
It's so random.
I think I think Monica wasn't prepared for this competition unfortunately.
No I don't think so either.
And it's okay.
I think drag is whatever you want it to be.
Um.
But I am like I wish you had it a little bit more.
Yeah.
Like I because I word a season of breastplate queens and padded queens.
So she kind of stuck out a little bit for me not being padded.
But again you can do drag however you fucking like.
And I do love a non-padded queen.
I'll drag valid.
Like you know my favorite one is Simone I feel like she never pads and she's serving
body out of she's hot and maybe it is just the attitude then Monica I'm sorry but I know
you're scared and you're having a rough time but I was very frustrated seeing her in the
same position we saw her in at the beginning of season five.
I was like I am sorry but there's no time for this.
There's no time for this.
There's no time.
There's no time.
You had time.
Time to go be a second of all.
I wanted to see her evolution as be as big as Kahanas.
I know.
You know what I mean?
I know.
Like we were rooting for we were all rooting for you.
I mean you had eight ten years to get over your nerves.
I'm sorry but.
For your nerves.
I mean you're right.
What are we doing?
Let's quickly chirping burp again another runway which is just like be amazing at drag.
We got a plexus michelle giving a beautiful stun watermelon old Hollywood dress.
It's stunning and it's a chirp.
It's really pretty it's a chirp.
I love how high the slit is slutty asymmetrical kind of hot.
Okay I'm here for it.
I do wish she was wearing another glove.
Oh yeah yeah I could see that and I wish her attitude was better.
And I don't she is perfect in every single way.
I don't want her to change.
I'm like giving cheetah glitter.
Okay I feel like I've been a little hard on dairy and like this episode.
I love leopard brand love cheetah.
I do wish the skirt was like a little bit more fitted and fluted more mermaid.
I want her to have trouble walking.
Yeah.
And also maybe like another tier like coming in cinched at like towards the ankle a tier
and then another tier like I don't know and like maybe a mermaid tail like I just I wish
the bottom was a little bit more structured.
Yeah I thank you and still a chirp.
I'm going to chirp it.
Yeah also I'm out of chirp.
Heidi and Crossit giving zebra fuchsia.
This is a lot.
Yeah.
But and again last night I didn't like it and now I do like it.
Yeah it was better when she ripped a layer off.
I mean it was a little better when she ripped a layer off because I was like as big as
and cool as it was I kind of like seeing them more of the shine underneath.
There's like a shiny corset underneath that really it was the shiny course it was fun.
But I will say I do like it.
It's a chirp for me.
The construction is hot and the colors are hot chirp.
Yeah.
Yes.
And it's very very hiding.
It's very hiding.
Kona muchross.
Wow.
My fucking god.
This is incredible.
Jesus Christ.
This is nutty.
This is so good.
This is I dare I this is beautiful.
This reminds me a lot of oh my god.
What is her name?
A curious should not wait a career.
Yeah.
A curious.
She's like yes big beautiful bold.
Yeah.
Body yachty.
That reminded me of her in the best way possible where I was like show girls.
She looks like a fucking girls gargoyle.
She looks like Maleficent when she was becoming a dragon.
Yes.
Better come through fucking Vegas.
I mean it's love.
Unbelievable.
It's such a beautiful.
No no.
Chirp.
Not a note in the world.
Chirp, chirp, chirp in her body.
Honestly that's like a fucking chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp.
Cacao.
Candy Muse giving red robot moment.
This doesn't scream candy muse, Timmy.
So like I feel like she like slotted up and slotted down their own way.
But that being said I do like it.
It's definitely a chirp for me but it is interesting like the hips are kind of flaring
out more than her gorgeous legs and her legs are gorgeous.
And the hair is gorgeous and little.
The hair is static.
Booty hole peekaboo.
Yeah and then the booty hole peekaboo is it the garments interesting to me.
It's a strange one.
I see candy and better.
I see it in the chirp candy because she's like always like has good ideas but also terrible
ones.
So maybe I don't know.
I'm not in love with it but I like it if that makes any sort of.
Yeah and I don't know if that's my body.
I don't know.
I mean look head up.
A lot of it works.
It's still a chirp.
I think I like it from the waist up and then yeah waist to knees and a waist to push.
Yeah.
And then I do love.
I love a candy mousse tiny stiletto.
That signature candy.
I love that.
She's hot.
Nice alopes.
This is cool.
I think this is the best she's looked and this is very hurt.
Yes.
She looks beautiful.
It's wamana but it is still drag enough.
Yes this is drag enough for me and I love the hair.
The makeup is pretty.
It's almost like 80s.
Yeah.
It's like.
Yes.
Snow queen.
Yes.
This is the drapery across the torso.
This is fantastic.
This is a chirp.
Love.
Love.
Love.
Tripp Cher.
Love.
James Mansfield.
Pink old Hollywood.
This is pretty.
This is just pretty.
This is iconic James Mansfield.
Like this is just, this is her.
It's stunning.
Yeah.
I like it.
The hair is nice.
It's blonde.
It's pretty.
It's Boudwares.
It's 1940s.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And she does say that she like learned how to pad and it shows.
She looks like the body is right.
She looks cute.
Yeah.
She looks really cute.
I mean, it's a chirp.
Yeah.
It's not shocking in any way but it is absolutely a chirp.
No.
Beautiful.
Jessica Wild Rockstar Bitch.
This is classic Jessica Wild.
Yes.
I feel like she's wearing the wig she wore when she did RuPaul in the snapchamp.
I just, I love this, this like suited leotard.
It's like a souplier.
I don't know.
I love it with like the little poof poop at the back and the boob.
She's so cool.
I love it.
I love her.
And yeah, I mean, it's also a good reminder to like, remember I won this challenge?
Remember I won the rock challenge back in my day?
It's hot.
The colors are great.
And sometimes that can be hard to pull off like the darker palette with like a, a dark
lip and stuff and she really nailed the balance.
Yeah.
She nailed it.
It's a fucking stunning.
I fucking love her.
Wow, Jimbo.
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.
If Jimbo is going to do anything, Jimbo is going to serve you a luke.
Gonna super fry it.
This is fucking fun.
Fun, crazy, brains, tongue, brain, he brains, tongue.
I love it.
Brain, but the wig is truly fun.
The butt is huge.
The butt is what I wish that I had seen from Maryland.
That's okay.
She brought it here.
This is just, yeah, this is Jimbo.
Like Jimbo's, she says she's a drag clown.
That's it.
Like it's fun.
And the brain is also like, it looks like it is hair.
You know, obviously it would be so tempting to just make it one of those fake, you know,
the fake plastic, the fake foam hair.
Yeah.
No, this is hair.
It's hair.
It's hair.
It's hare.
It's hare darling.
Wow, cacao, cacao, cacao, cacao, cacao, cacao, what?
Love, lollary.
Red.
This is really fucking pretty.
Yeah.
Really sickening.
I will say, I wish the buns were a little bigger.
Yeah.
But that being said, this is maybe the prettiest she's loved.
Like, so pretty.
It's really pretty.
I like the asymmetry.
I like the drapery.
Red against her skin.
The gold details.
Yes.
You can't, you can't knock it.
It's a chirp.
I love it.
So pretty.
And Monica Beverly helps.
I think this might be the best she's looked.
I don't like the shoe, but the shoe seems very Monica.
Yeah.
I like the color.
I think her makeup looks flawless.
I think it's unforgivable that her natural hair is different than the poof that's different
than the braid.
Yeah.
We have three different hair tones going on.
Yeah.
I love that you thought that last night.
And she doesn't look happy.
No, she doesn't look like she's having a good time.
The fuck.
And that's my biggest.
Yes.
I think knocked her.
Yes.
But like if you're not having fun, I'm not having fun.
Yeah, because yeah.
I, you know, I'm going to burp it.
But she looks stunning.
This is a chirp.
Okay, work.
It's pretty.
Mrs. Kaushadivey's giving.
There's always time for a purple dress you've seen me wear many times before.
I will say it is constructed well.
It is her silhouette.
I do think it's really pretty.
I wish the hair was different.
I don't like these hair helmets.
They're not quite for me.
Yeah.
It is.
It is not.
It's not my favorite.
It is encrusted and bejeweled and she's serving our housewife aesthetic.
Yeah.
I think this is a chirp.
This is classic Kaushadivey's and that was the assignment.
I was the assignment.
I'll give it a chirp and the heels I like.
Right.
What was it?
It was your best drag.
No, it wasn't.
What was it?
Was it signature or another word they used?
Yeah.
I, this is quintessential Kaushadivey's and I like it.
Yes.
Just not that hair hat.
Not the hair hat and I chirp.
Think that's all of our divas, but my internet's really confused.
Yep.
And that's, that gets us to the end of the road where the winner of today is Miss Kahana
Mon tres.
And I think it was well deserved and I think it's a real redemption.
Well deserved.
Fully, fully, fully.
I mean, yeah, it's, she deserved that redemption and that is hard to get that redemption as
a girl who went home that early and.
Early.
Yeah.
Cause she went home second or third, I believe.
Yeah.
Second.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She was really fucking great.
Like I, I was very happy, but she had to lip sync against Ajha.
Ajha, LaBeja.
And Ajha.
And Ajha.
And Ajha.
And Ajha.
Fucking murdered.
I also am biased.
I love Ajha.
When she walked out, I was like, that wig is too low on the forehead, but then it fell
right off and revealed another wig and I say, okay, babe, we did it.
And then her very, I mean, she is such a great dancer and her dips are so smooth.
Oh, yeah.
She's like, this is how you dip.
She is here.
She's wondering, you don't flop.
Yeah.
And I appreciate it.
It's just stunning.
I love her.
She's here to remind the girls that no king isn't bo-king.
Um, no king isn't bo-king.
I mean, it is fun to watch a ballroom queen do ballroom on the show because we have a
like, and I'm not knocking the girls who do ballroom stunts who don't do ballroom, but
like you forget how smooth some of the moves are.
And they're not just like, flam, bam.
Did you break something?
Yeah.
It's not me being shady.
No, no, it's just different.
It's just a different beast.
I'm truly here for both.
I think people should be allowed to do whatever their capacity is in dancing, right?
Like, and just because someone isn't a good enough dancer to pull off a classic vogue
move, I don't necessarily think it's disrespecting vogue.
It's just like, I don't think it's disrespectful.
Yeah.
I think they're trying.
Yeah, they're trying.
I mean, me personally, I can't.
I can't do a dip.
I wish I could.
I've tried to learn how to do a dip.
But you have to have some real control over your one leg.
Yeah.
And that is scurry as a bitch who has broken an ankle.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
You've you twisted it upside down up and around you.
Upside down.
Did you do the scene?
I see your ankle.
Your ankle truly was like Brooklyn hiding around your body.
Just flipping and turning.
It truly was.
It said goodbye.
Good.
Bye.
Oh, bodies are weird.
Bodies are intense.
Yeah.
You know what's even more intense?
What?
What?
What?
It was close.
It was close for a hot second.
It was like, I think Kahana might have it.
But then Ajha, as much as I enjoy Kahana's performance,
Ajha was so much fun to watch.
Yes.
Again, I'm biased.
I fucking love Ajha.
I fully agree.
I just thought Ajha ate it up a little bit more.
A little more cunt, a little more Puss, a little more.
And Kahana did great though.
Yeah.
It was really fun.
This was a really fun first episode.
Fun first episode.
And we had to say goodbye to Monteca Beverly Hills.
Yes.
So sad.
It was very sad that we learned what the fame game was.
So each Queen who goes home gets to serve a look or the look that they would have worn
that episode.
And then starting in July, months from now, the fandom can vote for the Queen.
What is that?
What is that?
What is that?
And I said July?
Yeah.
This show is going to go on for a minute.
And it's also funny to do that.
It looks like so because we saw Monica walk her look in the next episode.
So I was like, wait, do these queens stay and film all of their runways when they are
eliminated?
I think that's it.
That is hard.
Because if you go home at number five, that means you have to do what?
Like 10 different looks back to back with different makeups?
They're not doing them back to back because I think they keep them the whole time.
They just keep them there.
So you're only gone, I think, for two months at a time.
Got it.
I believe.
Or maybe like a month and a half.
So you're there for the whole time.
You're probably walking.
You get eliminated.
And then the day they walk is the day you walk alone.
Wow.
You walk alone?
The cheese stands alone.
I think the fame game.
I would be so sad.
I think the fame game should have a bigger twitch.
I think they should get to come back in like, but again, here we are.
I don't think that's going to happen.
Honestly, I do think the fame game much like the lip syncs from what season was that?
Season six.
All star six season six.
Was it all star six where they had to lip sync to get back into the game?
Yes.
That was all star six.
Yeah.
I'm like, well, twisty-roo.
I liked that twisty-roo.
I kind of like that.
But then, yeah.
And then how did that work out?
And then your Rika went home and your Rika came right back.
Yeah.
Yeah, which I thought it should have been silky.
I would have kept silky.
Just cuz.
Well, yeah.
I mean silky is great.
I mean silky is great.
No, it's like.
She won six fucking lip syncs and that Barbie girl won was iconic.
It was amazing.
Just alone on that stage.
Alone owning it.
But was she alone?
No.
I don't think so.
She brought her own friend.
No, she brought the Holy Spirit with her.
She sure did.
Nicole.
I do think the fame game should have a queen come back, but I get it.
Whatever.
Yes, Momo.
This has been so fun.
I.
Thank you for having me back on the one and only RuPaul's Drag Race podcast.
Yeah, it's iconic.
How could we do this without you?
Remind us where we can support you.
Okay.
So I have a link tree on my Instagram and you can click that.
Put those links below.
I have dates coming up.
I will tell you the links.
Oh my God.
My phone wasn't on silent and I didn't get a single text message.
You hate that.
That is sad.
You said that last night too.
You hated that.
You hated when your phone was like, you were like, yeah, I hate when nobody is contacting
me.
So June 1st, 2nd and 3rd, I was going to go see Bossy Rossi in Anaheim.
But instead I'll be at Bricktown Comedy Club in Oklahoma.
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Jokes on you.
July 7th.
You can't say Bossy Rossi with us.
July 6th, 7th and 8th.
I'm Devastata.
I know.
I'll be at downtown Denver Comedy Works.
And then if you go to my link tree, I'm going to be September, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Portland,
Washington, November.
I'll be in Milwaukee, Boston.
I'm doing, I'm not doing a tour.
I'm just, I'm having a nice time in working out material.
Nice.
Nice.
I mean, and we'll put those links below too because, you know, you, the people need to
know the people need to come see you in person.
What a fucking treat.
Please come see me in person.
It's a nice time.
I only had a yellow one person at my DC shows who screamed, where's Marmar?
My co-host of 90 Day Bay and I said, I don't ask where your people are.
Where's your mom?
And she goes, I don't have one.
I was like, where will you hatch?
You do have a mom.
She's like, she's dead.
And I was like, so is mine.
And then I had a really big club.
You dig myself out of that hole I made for myself.
Anywho, come see me live.
It's a good time.
Yeah.
Join the club.
Either you don't know if the fucking dead mom get over yourself.
Yeah.
My mommy's dead too, but I still acknowledge her.
You know.
I fucking love it, Nicole.
You're perfect in every way.
And if you like us here and you want more of our insane, barely accurate coverage of drag
race, you can follow us at dragherpodcast on Instagram and give us a review on the Apple
podcast.
We read them on the air.
Till next time, my dears, let the music play.
Bye.
Bye.
That was a hit dumb original.
Oh my gosh.
Hi guys.
We're the band, Luna.
And oh my gosh.
Guess what?
I'm JoZette.
Hi, Jo.
I'm Katie.
And oh my gosh.
I think I'm Naomi.
And this is chaotic.
Our podcast now on head come.
We have a lot of our favs on the beautiful boys from Los Culturistas and the SNL separately,
Boneyang and Matt Rogers.
Sexy, sexy people.
Grace Cool and Schmidt.
Clay Duvall.
Honey, Fab du Rakib.
We have Tegan and Sarah on for a two-parter.
We love them.
Mommy and Daddy.
Guess which one's which?
We're going to be sort of figuring out which queer people fit into which stereotypical roles.
Yeah.
I wish we spent less time on the podcast doing that than we actually do.
I feel like I've just been compulsively trying to find out who's the top and whose bottom.
Well, I think these are the hard hitting questions everybody wants to know.
Will you remain gay once you come out as gay?
Is being gay overrated?
Absolutely.
