THIS is how you do drag girls.
There's so much to unpack about this of all things being rejected but we already know Ru is horribly out of touch and Drag Race has very much so scrubbed away the grittiness and subversive attitude that laid the groundwork for this art form smh
Ok THAT is fucking amazing.
And how gross for that to have been censored. So much for those punk roots, eh Ru?
This season is... fine.
-I'm loving seeing Naomi again who I thought was quite funny in the Judge Jersey challenge.
-I liked Monique on her season but now I find her to be grating, flat, insincere, overly self conscious and irritating in literally every possible way. Please go home and retire from drag.
-Monet is fine? I kind of liked her Kim K look but she's always running at like 75 or 80% for me. I just want to see her tighter, sharper and more conceptual.
-Manila is also fine. She's not as funny as she thinks she is and there's something slightly cringe-y for me about her sense of humor. If she would (or was even allowed to) do edgier work she might really fly.
-Trinity is fun despite the horror show plastic surgery and I'm wowed by her looks regularly. She's also not as funny as she thinks she is although I enjoyed her Caitlin Jenner.
-Latrice was kind of just there this season. Although I love seeing how polished her looks have become. As lots have stated here, she's resting on reputation for AS4 and that's not that fun to watch. I hope she comes back this season full blast.
-Valentina is far and away my favorite and my hope to win. I think she's playing an overheated character in and out of drag-- a telenovela meta-performance at all times and I am here for it. She's almost like the glam Latinx cousin of Tammie Brown if Tammie Brown had not yet done psychedelics. That said, her comedy still needs a lot of work.
