Laganja was one of my early picks but she seems super-tense and selfconscious, not exactly a chip off the old block. I love the contrast between Ben's drag persona and mellow, chilled-out dudeself. Also Ben is kind of freakishly smart, probably one of the smartest queens we've ever had on this show. I just love Ben. April is already great TV, and made the most of a bad job in that main challenge. Impressive. Please please please stick around, mama Vi. There are a lot of really cute boys this season, kind of nice after s5's cavalcade of yikes.

Looks like it's up on Logotv dot com. Whether this means anyone will be able to actually watch it depends on whether they've fixed the loving site.

Magnolia was probably the worst "Drag Race" contestant ever. She's sub-Nicole Paige Brooks awful. I feel like they put Darienne in the bottom over Joslyn because they knew Darienne would completely destroy that lipsync and send the swordfish packing. (And there is NO EXCUSE for not knowing "Turn The Beat Around". NONE.) This is such an impressive field. I haven't the faintest clue who's going to make top 3, except Courtney who's a gimme. This is shaping up to be an excellent season. VVVV EEEEK! Sorry, spoiler tagging. spite house fucked around with this message at 08:07 on Mar 5, 2014 |

SlaveToTheGrinds posted:Am I the only one that desperately wants to be friends with Courtney after watching untucked? Ben continues to be pretty much perfect, and understands how to play this game. She is also goddamned beautiful and that runway look was the truth. Laganja is also beautiful but I'm done with her. We watched at a House of Dudebros tonight, owing to pure happenstance, and one of the dudebros (who had never before seen "Drag Race") said "Dude. This show makes me FEEL THINGS."

^A lot of people are still excessively impressed with unclockable female impersonation. That's the only explanation I have for Gia's continuing popularity. Eve and Trina do not age. I guess they were both about 20 when they first broke out, and are only in their mid-thirties now, but still, amazing. And they were great judges. That was an excellent library challenge, lots of good burns. I think I liked Ben's read of Joslyn best. "You've got some really nice old-fashioned qualities. Like how you paint in sepia tones and your voice sounds like a dialup modem." Enjoying Adore a whole lot more than I thought I would. I attribute her personal development entirely to Bianca. Speaking of whom, didn't Bianca look beautiful on the runway? So so so pretty and stately and elegant. She's a goddamned superhero.

It's really too bad that Joslyn's drag is so pedestrian, because she is just a darling creature.

Just got home from seeing the LA production of "Return to Grey Gardens", with Jinkx and Peaches Christ among others. loving excellent. The material itself is kind of slight but it didn't matter one bit; Jinkx was mesmerizing. She sang "All That Jazz", "You Really Got A Hold On Me" ( ) and "I Dreamed A Dream", was hilarious and wonderful, and generally ate the sucker for breakfast. Also was about 500x more beautiful in person as usual. She's the real thing and I don't regret a second of stanning.Peaches remains the person I want to be when I grow up. Her performance was pretty understated but she knows how to stage the hell out of a show. The other standout was Squeaky Blonde, who is a force of fuckin nature and will never, ever appear on "Drag Race" for any reason so you have to go see her live. [e: Do not expect a typical drag show. Like, at all.] She did an airtight lipsync to something terrifying, and took up every iota of available light. She's also the real thing, in a very different way. Best for last: we were seated across the aisle from Willam and two rows behind Mathu Andersen. (CHiRAL, I thought of you right away.  ) Willam is exactly like you'd expect and Mathu is literally God. Anyway it was great. See these ladies if you can. spite house fucked around with this message at 06:46 on Apr 6, 2014 |

Joslyn is really quite something. She's smart as a whip despite the giggly-bimbo routine, and she's making Courtney's attempts to undermine her look real petty. Miss Congeniality is hers to lose imo.

I usually say "she", but sometimes call the queens "he" if they use their boy-names professionally. I keep wanting to call Ben "he". Willam is always "he". (He's a special case because as far as I can tell his drag persona is completely indistinguishable from his guy-self, except with more eyeshadow and packing tape.) I called Chad Michaels "he" too. It's weird. Unrelated: I've seen people postulating that Laganja's meltdowns might have been exacerbated because she uses weed to medicate for anxiety, and the queens aren't allowed to smoke, even offcamera. Why is this? CA is a MMJ state and the requirements for medical need are extremely loose; you pretty much just have to stroll into a storefront on the Venice boardwalk and say "sometimes I get the mulligrubs, give me some indica". It's still illegal per federal law, of course, but not in practice. Jinkx has said that she was an unhinged weepy mess on her season because she couldn't get high to help her sleep, and she has a legitimate diagnosis. They're allowed to drink. I don't get it. Laganja still sucks like a jet turbine. e: Also unrelated, but terrific: a video about our beloved Bianca's double life as drag performer and costume designer. She has so much soul I can't stand it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYNgMUIKyUY spite house fucked around with this message at 07:59 on Apr 10, 2014 |

I'm pretty sure the network doesn't give a flying gently caress about federal law and just wants to depict people flaking out as much as possible whenever possible, and that's kinda lame. Still, thanks for the T.

Or Darienne has been ripping on everyone and they've edited her commentary down to an apparent Ben-grudge in order to to create a "storyline", which s6 has been blessedly free of so far. Gross either way.

I have to say I've done a complete turnaround on Miss Adore Del Rio. Maybe it's the blood moon, I dunno, but damned if I'm not in the tank for that girl all of a sudden.

Season 3 had Manila's Macarthur Park lipsync though. So, here's a question; if you had to recommend one season to someone who was totally new to the show, which would it be? I was thinking 4 because there were so many great moments and Sharon hadn't fallen from grace yet, but Tin Miss makes a good point about the weak challenges. I'd blocked out the loving boats.

If Bianca Del Rio didn't make three-quarters of Adore's ensemble with her own hands I will eat my loving shoes. (See also Trinity's standup routine.) I'll miss my Bendela terribly, but it's kind of a relief to know that the elimination order/top 3/ringer spoilers that were floating around aren't accurate. spite house fucked around with this message at 00:10 on Apr 30, 2014 |

I think Adore's got that crown. Bianca's off-the-show act is too raw and out-there. Not good for the brand, as some jamoke said on the mainstage. Adore is really likable and a fantastic little performer. I just wish she had five more years on her.

I think I'll just gibber like an idiot and completely disgrace myself. I could probably cope with Sutan alone, even though he's p much the most objectively beautiful person ever to walk the earth. Fine. Mathu? Oh holy shitballs. My neighbors say he's the sweetest person in the world so maybe it might be OK. We'll see. [e: They are also friends with Fade-dra Phey and Squeaky Blonde.
