RuPaul’s Drag Race

We’re almost at the finish line for this season of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Unfortunately, Ru is milking the end of this season for all it’s worth. Yes, the contestants did have to shoot a courtroom scene, shoot the music video for The Beginning, meet with Gloria Allred to come up with their argument why each of them should win Drag Race AND have lunch with RuPaul. Ok, when I write it out like that it sounds like a lot. But when watching it, it seems like a really light episode. Especially since we now know that we get essentially an […]

RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 5 is down to the final 4 — RoLaskaToxx and Jinkx Monsoon. Roxxxy being ‘mean’ to Jinkx & then Jinkx looks all forlorn. The shade of it all! At least that’s the way the episode is being edited. Half the time in this episode and the corresponding Untucked, the four contestants seem to be having a good time with each other. The mini-challenge is an old-fashioned bitchfest. With puppets. Well done on the cross-promotion, LOGO. The network seems to be getting the hang of this. The drag queens have to pull a puppet out of the […]

AT-TEN-TION! This week on RuPaul’s Drag Race the dragtestants need to makeover their drag sister. Those drag sisters are newly-out gay veterans. Some appear to be in their 20s or 30s, while the oldest is in his 60s. To pair up the family members, the drag queens need to go to drag booty camp for a military-style workout. Putting them through the paces is Storm from Barry’s Boot Camp. Fans in  Southern California can enjoy his Butts & Legs class a couple of times today, so work it out. I live in Milwaukee, where no trainer, or anyone else, is […]

And we’re back squirrel-friends! RuPaul’s Drag Race has returned from their brief, no-apparent reason hiatus. Apparently we want to space this season out to give us an end-of-April wrap party. Ivy’s gone & Ru shows up to randomly make the dragtestants cry. Ok, I’m all for suspended disbelief, but come on Ru. This mini-challenge totally came off as ‘which one of you hasn’t cried/opened up something really personal & painful yet – ok time for Detox to cry!’ Sigh. I appreciate getting to know the cast & their backstories, but these random confessionals out of nowhere could be relegated to […]

After a super-emotional episode last week, we need a little levity this week. So RuPaul’s Drag Race gives us what could be a super-campy main challenge. The task this week is to come up with a signature fragrance — its bottle & name — and then come up with a commercial for that fragrance. But first, Drag Racers, one must have a mini-challenge. And this week the mini-challenge is …. Whatcha Packin’? It’s a dirty version of a match game. The Pit Crew has grown to over 20 members — the queens have to ask 2 members to drop trou […]

The library is open on RuPaul’s Drag Race season 5! Reading is fun-damental, hunties! The episode begins with Alaska cutting the creamy middle out of RoLaskaToxx. About time, Alaska. She’s figured out that she doesn’t stand out in the group, and with only 7 queens left, she needs to stand out. We don’t dwell on that too long at the start, so I don’t think anyone was surprised.

After last week’s RuPaul’s Drag Race season 5 Snatch Game episode, I’m fully expecting this week’s episode to be a little bit of a let down. Jinkx Monsoon can’t carry the entire season. Some of the other drag queens are going to have to start getting entertaining & not just bitching at each other. This week’s mini-challenge involves putting their face on in the dark. Meh. They were all upset & no one really looked all that bad. Or perhaps they all looked bad, but they were all the same level of bad. Alaska at least makes it interesting by […]

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, ladies and ladyboys – it’s that time again. Time for the ever-popular, most awesome Snatch Game episode for RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 5. Squee! Let’s recap the highlights – season 4 gave us Sharon Needles as Michelle Visage and Chad Michaels as Cher. Season 3 gave us Raja as Tyra Banks and Stacey Lane Matthews as Mo’Nique’s character from the movie Precious.  Pandora Boxx went classic as Carol Channing, and Tatianna was called ‘eerily accurate’ in her portrayal of Britney Spears in Season 2. And season 1 was just sad in comparison because there […]

RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 5 has promised us something shocking, SHOCKING I say! Supposedly we’ll never see it coming! I better be surprised RuPaul… This episode deals with dance for some reason. Oh, yeah, America’s Next Drag Superstar needs to bring it! And Ru brings it with a giant ‘fro wig. It’s a Soul Train dance-off! The two winners of this mini-challenge are Jinkx Monsoon & Coco Montrese. The main challenge is to create a modern drag ballet. And because Alyssa is a dancer, Coco picks her first. The faces the other queens make are priceless. Please see Roxxxy Andrews […]
