A lot of people play it up for the cameras.

I think Eureka on television is exactly like who she is in real life. Silky too.

Shhh... don't wake up the sleeping lion :3:

I'm fine with them bringing back queens from AS1 since, well, it might as well not have existed. But yeah I don't think Ginger really needs to be back.

They seem to be going through the AS1 queens one by one, though. Maybe we'll get Mimi, Shannel, and Tammie (:allears:) on some future AS seasons (though I think Tammie has said she's not coming back again? so did Dela, though)

I noticed Reginald (Silky) on Grindr in Sydney pre-pandemic within 1km of my workplace, presumably for one of the international tours.

Profile information was "Ask about Silky and you get blocked. I'm looking for men just like all of you. Now make that pussy fart."

That's verbatim because I screen-capped and sent to my husband.

Bitch you're the one who couldn't make it past three words without bringing up Silky. I SURE HOPE NOBODY RECOGNISES ME FROM THE TELEVISION...

Tammie has had some very pointed things to say about Drag Race and she said even if she won it she would hand it back, due to the fracking

Oh nevermind I am now negative excited. RPDR execs shoving every fat drag queen who's ever appeared on their television program into a single season like "we will have a big girl win even if the cast is insufferable and has no chemistry god DAMMIT we've been trying for seven years and at some point you just need to stack the deck"

lol if this pans out you can be certain they were planning to force one to win on season 12 but oopsie poopsie on that

I kinda wanna see the unedited season 12 footage. Curious to see what Sharty's storyline would've been. But honestly, I can't see her having won in the producers' original plans post-filming. Obviously she was favored early on, but she coasted for the second half of the season.

i absolutely am 100% certain she was the narrator of the season, and she was going to win

I wasn't totally sure on it as the season was going, but after she went on for 18 minutes when the time limit was 5, and after her verse in the final challenge which a toddler could have outdone that they let her slide for, they were ALL loving ABOUT sherry pie, it would have gotten them another good from behind narrative which they love and finally ticked off that big girl thing, it's such a gimme

i would also do unspeakable things to watch the original s12 cut though for sure

I’m one of the editors that hastily assembled the version of S12 that was broadcast and I have access to the unadulterated, never-before-seen footage of S12E03 - onward. I’ll gladly leak them to anyone who’s willing to put together a short reel - just post a picture of yourself in the thread first (preferably without deodorant) so I know what skin tone muscle suits I need to order :getin:

Going 13 minutes over her time in the comedy challenge should’ve eliminated her on the loving spot.

shocked Michelle didn’t walk to the side of the stage and do the classic cartoon “grab them by the neck with a cane and yank ‘em off the stage”

Yes, but they loved it. Despite the editing they did to make it look like her comedy set was awkwardly long, the audience and judges looked delighted during it.

I dunno, they still decided to give Gigi a fourth win. I suppose track record isn't the end-all-be-all, especially considering S11's outcome. But given what we saw of the episode 2 lip sync, they would've had to do away with LSFTC in order to rig it in favor of SP.

But yeah, there's definitely a reel of film Ru ordered burned containing all the glowing praise from the judges.

It's a joke that the host in drag looks like Cheryl. (Honestly, she doesn't look that much like Cheryl but I laughed.)

between that and serena chacha being bandied about and the more recent other additions, I'm curious whether people were wrong about a few of them, or if it's going to turn into like a full rear end 14 person season or something or some of the suspected cast is just missing from instagram for no good reason

Yes, it's breaking my brain a bit. Dutch sounds uncannily similar to English (yes I know, they're closely related) and when half of what they're saying is actually English it confuses the heck out of me.

edit: lots of really cute boys

I’m going to have to watch it twice just so my brain can fully process the visual, reading the subtitles and hearing the language switches. Not that I’m complaining...

Also is it just me, or was anybody else kind of shocked at how bad that lipsync was? The looks were so so polished from nearly everybody that I guess I was expecting more, despite the fact that it’s the first elimination.

I know drag has some universal elements across cultures, but I really wonder do Dutch drag queens lip sync to English songs most of the time?

The lip syncs in DRUK were also not very good in general. It may point to a difference in typical drag performances between Europe and North America. One of Charlie Hides excuses for her bad lip sync was “all the acts in London sing live.”
