what a humorous anecdote.
I'm kinda surprised nobody did Marina and the Diamonds in like...seasons 5 or 6. Primadonna was loving everywhere and her aesthetic basically created the soft tumblr depression aesthetic from the same time? Electra Heart is probably copyright since she's a character and nobody had done the "do a character but say youre the actress" thing yet. Also I guess the queens don't really use tumblr regularly, the only ones I can think of who ever use/used it are Willam as an askbox and Jinkx because she's a nerd.

I wish that we could've had more Soju but she was missing words, her dress was literally falling apart, and she had zero chutzpah. It's a drat shame because there is no doubt in my mind that she'd be a far more interesting competitor in the long run.

As someone said earlier, how do you make a living off this show and then come in and just loving bomb.

Probably because taping reviews and watching the show aren't preparation for actually doing drag in a competition

"Don't do Beyonce on Snatch" is like "don't wash off the patina" for Antiques Roadshow and "don't put chocolate in the dough or you won't be able to tell if it burned" for GBBO, and as such, people are going to keep loving trying it until the heat death of the universe.

One thing I really look forward to in Drag Race UK is you know it won't be long before we get our goddamn Joanna Lumley and Jennifer Saunders Snatch Games. Hell they might even guest judge, if we're lucky!

See, I don't mind because the absolute PERFECT Bette Midler look is her captain of industry one from Beaches, and no one would do it, and I'd be sad/angry. I mean come on it has a built-in reveal!

Oh god I loved that scene! For the Boys would be another good one to pull looks from (also First Wives Club, or Gypsy). I love late 70s Bette, but the early 90s was a lot of fun, too.

I was already very interested in seeing what Yvie is gonna do, but I was so happy to hear her mention Christeene. I'm probably gonna end up rooting for her now.

So, there is apparently some drama with the Haters Ball. Monet was offered a chance to appear in a new Madonna video, so she asked to miss a date on the tour. The management told her no, they would fire her if she went to do it, so she went and did the video, and they fired her.

Ginger Minj's husband worked backstage on the tour, and his grandmother was in the hospital (and passed away a few days later). He took some time off the tour to go deal with that, and the management fired him.

So now Trinity has quit the tour, and the management is acting like they have no idea why anybody would be upset with them.

M&P is a poo poo company, but so is PEG. Wish there were better options for big tours for the queens.

Ginger was also booted from the whole tour when she had to be away for a film, despite iirc having a clause in her contract to allow days away for poo poo like that.
