"Queens. That was an energetic lip sync. However, we have made our decision....

Lemon. Shantay. You Stay. You have made it to the TOP 3.
Jimbo. You excelled amazingly in this season and we are so proud of what you brought to each and every challenge and runway. But I'm sorry my dear. Sashay, Away"

Who do you personally believe is the strongest (most difficult to compete against) drag queen to ever compete on drag race.
this is a topic i'd like to preface by saying i'm a cis gay man, rather effeminate, and a drag fan; and also by saying that i don't even like regular pageants with little girls in full hair and makeup as i find it creepy
i have very strong opinions on children in drag, but the short version is i don't like it, i don't think kids should be exposed like that especially to an audience of strangers; i think kids putting on wigs and heels at home is fine and they shouldn't be shamed for it, i just have a problem when these kids are exposed to social media and TV audiences because we know how dangerous it can get
what are your thoughts on this?
PS: i dont mind drag queens interacting with kids, i dont mind kids learning about what drag is, i just dont think THEY should be allowed to do drag in public until theyre older
The oldest is 31. I find it unfortunate because I feel we need young AND older voices. I feel older queens bring more experience and more personality, even if they don't often do well.
I recently posted an article from our little town tribune about Bosco being from here, but after the first episode I've already noticed something interesting. I work in a warehouse with lots of older men, but I've never made it a secret how much I LOVE drag race. I've already gotten a couple of my same age/mindset coworkers into it (showed a Katya comp to a friend who became OBSESSED). But today one of my older coworkers came to me to ask if I'd seen the episode; apparently his daughter used to dance with Bosco and he choreographed some stuff for her. We started chatting about it and he revealed he'd never watched it before until now, and was thinking of subbing to Paramount to watch all the other seasons because he didn't realize how funny it was. Not even 5 minutes later another of my old man coworkers walks by and says "yeah the wife knows the kid from here too, said he was an amazing tap dancer, so we watched it too". Yall, my jaw was on the floor. THEN as I go to hand in my time card to the bossman, HE asks if I watched the episode because, apparently, he and his wife also knew Bosco when they were younger and wanted to see him on there as well! And this is the same bossman I've had talks with about some of his homophobic remarks.
PLUS my own aunt, who is not the biggest fan of the LGBTQ community as a whole (but not like an ass about it, just old and from a small town) was the one who told me Bosco was even from here because she knows his mom and my whole family has known Miss Linda (his (step?)grandmother and dance teacher) since before I was even born. She taught me how to dance too! And my Aunt told me today she has the episode recorded and I'd going to watch it tonight after the kids go to bed, which is amazing because I've wanted to get her into drag race! She's one of those ladies that likes to go to Vegas a lot to gamble and I'm going to try and convince her to go to the big drag show while she's down there and get me Yvies autograph.
It's just incredible that these people are just so excited to support someone from our little town and may end up learning something throughout. Especially with the amazingly eclectic cast I think this season is going to be one to remember in my little town. I think this season is going to change some minds around here.
mine would 100% no doubt be detox
Every drag queen is a hard worker, but, who are the queens who are really putting their nose (contour) to the grindstone to build amazing careers and accomplish amazing things? Don’t just name names — tell us why. Teach the children!
By airing at the end of a stacked year of drag race related shows, CDR S2 was somewhat lost in a sea of content in 2021. The show personally brought me a lot of joy at a trying time, and I won’t forget it or the queens on it that entertained me so much.
Before the next round of drag shows begin airing in 2022, I wanted to pay tribute to the cast by sharing my favourite things I learned about the queens from some of their post-show interviews. I’m going to post those tidbits in the comments below and I hope that anyone else who has any kind of tribute they would like to make or anecdotes they’d like to share, will do the same.
I was just thinking about how I still wanna embrace my feminine side despite identifying and being a guy.
So was just wondering.
A queen with a bad run on Drag Race doesn’t necessarily mean they’re a bad or average queen. I think there is a distinction between being a talented drag queen and being good at Drag Race. Who are some examples of this?
Who are your top five favorite drag queens in no particular order and why?
My list would be… Alyssa edwards: she’s iconic in every way imaginable Shangela: “halleloo!” Girl can lip sync I really enjoy watching her Gottmik: I love her makeup and she serves every time Latrice: iconic lip sync queen and she serves body every. single. time Tammy brown: I love everything about her she’s so quirky and funny!
I’ll go first: Kita Mean Even after she did the makeover challenge with Feta Mean. Still didn’t click.
It wasn’t until she won and someone on Twitter said they might try some ketamine. I was like “WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?”
And then I was like oh. Oooooh. Oh I get it. Then I felt very stupid.
I'm talking about pairs like Dax and Violet (Drag Mom and Drag Daughter/ Early Out and Winner)
There are so many queens who are quite similar to each other, but when it comes to the show, they take completely different routes. Are there more examples like this?
Who do you personally believe is the stringiest (most like a piece of string - in shape, texture, or concept) drag queen to ever compete on Drag Race?
