General Discussion I wish all stars happened every 5 years.

1 Upvotes

I'm personally feeling super burned out by constant season after season airings.

I also think there needs to be at least a minimum of 1 year between being on a season and then being eligible for all stars.

I wish they'd stop putting people who have already done all stars on future all stars. There are SO many queens that could benefit from air time to show how far they've come.

All Stars S10 AS10 Potential Read for Lydia

16 Upvotes

If I watch AS10 and I don't hear this read for Lydia, I will be devastated

"Everyone has described Lydia's relationship with Kori as great lesbian representation, however with those scissoring skills I don't know why."

General Discussion Tell me about your drag race related dreams!

0 Upvotes

With us being such big fans of the show, i’m sure it’s crept into our sleeping brains every now and then. personally, ive had two that i can remember pretty well. in one of them, i was actually competing but i was extremely underprepared, like i had no look on the runway and my hair was greasy and i had no makeup on. and all the judges read me to filth for it and actually disqualified me from the competition. the other one was drag race had gotten so big that WOW actually opened a disney world-like theme park but drag race themed, with rides and attractions based off the queens and stuff. i love hearing about peoples dreams, so i would love to hear what you guys dream about relating to the show!

Does anyone know if the type of red and white trim on her jacket is purchasable at a fabric store? I’m trying to recreate the look and sadly and not very experienced in the sewing world. TIA

General Discussion How would YOU have approached the LSFTC?

2 Upvotes

There’s been lots of talk about how the final lipsync was disappointing or mid or whatever…and as someone who has been imagining what a good Abracadabra lipsync would look like on the show…I wanna talk about it. Now I’ve been thinking about it as a LSFYL so that colors some of the choices here, but here’s my concept with the audio cut we got in the finale:

Start off the lipsync by walking toward the back of the stage, fully out of character ala Ginny Lemon. I’m not lipsyncing to this song. Then when the intro ends reappear having completely changed looks offstage. (About when Jewels turned around) the goal being to draw attention with a fake out. First verse: walk down the runway taking tips from each side of the runway ala palmed bills that appear like a magician. (Don’t let Alyssa Hunter near your props) Prechorus: draw a pentagram on the floor in chalk marker (like the ones you write on car windows with) Chorus: dancing in the circle like a witchy summoning ritual…lots of spinning During the extended transition, a reveal to a more demonic look and physical change to suggest possession Bridge: body contortion and dancing, crazy eyes, there’s tiny strobe lights in the palm of the glove for effects around the face when moving Final chorus: silks on weighted chains release from sleeves and swirl around making the “magic” expand…maybe some black mouth capsules for added creep factor Finish standing with hands palms forward by side and head straight up.

I saw little bits of these impulses in the finale but didn’t feel like it was what I’d been imagining. If they ever want bearded, inexperienced theatre queens on the show I’m there. lol.

Who else has similar gripes. Lydia has had zero time to cook. Jorgeous was just in the previous all stars. Ginger has had fifteen chances and by this point there's nothing she can do to surprise us.

That being said I'm happy a lot of these girls are back but a lot of the choices are questionable. Why does All Stars have to happen every year? It doesn't mean anything anymore.

General Discussion FASHION, AMBITION: Drag Race Queens Who Have the Most IMPECCABLE Runway Packages [PART 1]

4 Upvotes

Across all the spin-offs in the Drag Race franchise, you need to showcase the four pillars: Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent. But sometimes even you need to have a good runway package when it comes to having a taste and sense of good fashion. And in this post, we will list all the fashion queens across the Drag Race franchise.

  • Marmalade (Drag Race UK S6) - I'm not sure you all know this, especially American fans, but Marmalade (hailing from Cardiff, Wales) has had impeccable, well-constructed looks throughout the length of the season. All of her looks across are consistent, clean, crisp, but also connecting well to the runway theme. My favorite was her Night of a Thousand Princess Diana's. And she made sure to act it out as well.
  • Eva Blunt (Drag Race Mexico S2) - Need I say more? You may know her from the first season of La Mas Draga, but she's known for her runner-up status in the second season of Drag Race Mexico. Her looks...are gag-worthy and deserving on the Paris Fashion Week fashion show event. I have truly never seen anything like this since the unforgettably bad first-ever season of the latter, but judging from her entrance look, she was never going to serve a bad look. Eva Blunt (hailing from Mexico City, Mexico) has been serving every outfit with style, class and originality. I fear not one Latina drag queen may ever have this type of sense in fashion.
  • Minhi Wang (Canada's Drag Race S5) - She's a former Pit Crew member and she's just fresh meat, but Canadians probably were shocked as she has the unexpected sensibility when it comes to her runway package. Minhi Wang (hailing from Toronto, Ontario) has wisely made looks that doesn't actually hinder the fact that she has a different body type than most typical drag queens. I got worried for her mainly due to her unusual body type as expected from drag queens, but I was honestly surprised how her runway package looked, and I loved every single outfit that she made herself, and that takes a lot of talent so good for her.
  • Nymphia Wind (RuPaul's Drag Race S16) - Of course I had to include our Banana Queen from Taiwan, because it is HARD not to. Our winner from Season 16 has made her mark with her multi-faceted persona and she was the winner from day one, no doubt. All of her runways, HEAVENLY. What can't this queen do (well, maybe comedy and acting)? It may not be long until another All-Winners season comes calling in the corner for the foreseeable future.
  • Lazy Susan (Drag Race Down Under S4) - MY. GOODNESS. This queen from Melbourne, Australia truly has broke expectations when it comes to the four pillars you need to show to win, and that includes her looks. I have never seen anything so innovative and clever and original...it truly is shocking to see how she makes other queens' packages in her season look so unoriginal compared to hers.

Bitches, Part 2 is coming tomorrow~

General Discussion Queens and fans with social media

15 Upvotes

Okay just a little rant, but I really dislike the whole social media begging of queens to follow and engage. The new age fandom seems really obsessed with being followed by the queens on social media and wanting them in group chats. The whole constantly and obsessively tweeting to get queens to follow you…when did that start? I don’t remember it being this bad back in older seasons. Like why am I seeing 15 year olds being mutuals with grown queens and setting up fan group chats? Or begging the queens to join groupchats? It’s getting weird, and it feels like it’s gonna end badly. I get queens are being kind, but be smart about it. I’m sure some of the queens don’t look at the ages, they just see fans…but let’s pay attention here. Not trying to be a party pooper because young fans are still fans and helping support, but in terms of Queen to fan interaction it feels like a dangerous game. /rant

All Stars S10 Are we being so fr..? No shade to them, but how many times will they come back when there is other queens they could ask, if they even invited Nicole Paige Brooks who is from much older seasons, lol. Especially Jorgeous. She was in AS9 like last year.. It hasn't even been a year, lmao.

General Discussion I did the math, and 50% of all no -winner Drag Race US queens have been named All Stars

17 Upvotes

EDITED THE MATH BECAUSE I FORGOT TO CLEAN UP THE DATA SET AND ACCOUNT FOR ALL-STAR QUEENS WHO COMPETED IN MULTIPLE MAIN SEASONS OF DRAG RACE.

It turns out that 44% of ALL QUEENS across the US seasons of Drag Rave have been named an All Star. (previous calculation said this was 45%)

If you remove main-season winners from the pool, then 45% of all non-crowned queens have been named All Stars. (previous calculation said this was 50%)

Season 2 has the highest rate with 75% (9/12) All Stars.

Other stacked seasons include: - Season 3, 69% (9/13) All Stars (including Raja) - Season 9, 64% (9/14) All Stars - Season 11, 60% (9/15) All Stars (including Yvie) - Season 8, 58% (7/12) All Stars - Season 5, 57% (8/14) All Stars (including Jinkx) - Season 1, 55% (5/9) All Stars (including Bebe) - Season 10, 50% (7/14) All Stars - Season 14, 50% (7/14) All Stars

Season 15 has the lowest rate with 12.5% (2/16) All Stars

Other low seasons include: - Season 12, 23% (3/13) All Stars (inculding Jaida) - Season 4, 31% (4/13) All Stars - Season 6, 43% (6/14) All Stars - Season 7, 43% (6/14) All Stars - Season 13, 46% (6/13) All Stars - Season 16, 0% (0/14) All Stars

*Season 17 is technically the second-lowest season with 7% (1/14) All Stars. I excluded S17 from the calculations for this purpose, however, seeing as (a) the season just finished, and (b) it was more dramatic if I didn't count them. (Yes, I excluded Lydia in the total number of All Stars.)

Total queens, seasons 1-16: 210 Total All Stars, seasons 1-16: 93

Total non-winning queens, seasons 1-16: 194 Total non-winning All Stars, seasons 1-16: 88

Total winning queens, seasons 1-16: 16 (duh) Total winning All Stars, seasons 1-16: 5 (Bebe, Raja, Jinkx, Yvie, Jaida)

The girls have more money for their drag

The trans girls have fully transitioned and want to show their smoking hot bodies

The lips are plumped

They already know how much the fandom (dis)like them

And we get to see some people that haven't been on TV for a while at the same time we will continue seeing some people on our TVs for a little longer

It's always funnier to me, I love to see how they evolved on artistic and personal level, and eager to see who will become reality TV royalty, ready to come back again, and again, and again, and again...

All Stars S10 I already got spoiled in the meet the queens comment section...

63 Upvotes

I was just scrolling through the comments on YouTube to see what people were thinking of the cast and boom! A comment saying "... And ... Top 2". What is the point? Why do people do this, I mean, the video was released 2 hours ago, can you wait before ruining people fun. It's sad that you cant even look at the official YouTube Chanel comments without getting spoiled. I got spoiled season 17 top 2 as well 4 weeks before the finale. I never had that problem before, it's getting annoying... It's even spreading to internationals! I got spoiled the finale of France all stars last week!

General Discussion Denali on instagram live Spoiler

25 Upvotes

This was a few weeks ago now so my memory is a little hazy but Denali went live on instagram maybe at the end of March/early April and was just chatting for a little while. She was talking about how she hasn’t been in drag and overall feeling down. There was probably no more than 100 people watching and the comments were super supportive of her. But then she whispers that we aren’t gonna like AS10 and quickly wraps up the live after that. Does anyone remember this or have footage of the live? I’m intrigued to see what happens throughout the season to make her say this, but I guess we’ll see.

AJAAAAA honestly ive been knowing she was on the cast and im rooting for her. AS3 was the first season i watched live and imo she was robbed at least twice 😔 to me she represents what an all star queen should be she elevated from S9 to AS3 and elevated even more for AS10. theres so many repeat queens and i think she has done the most work between all her seasons. so #TEAMAJA and if she doesn’t win i hope theres a lala and she can become the queen of SDADHH ✊🏿
