RuPaul's Drag Race

[Deleted]

I'm clicking between Rupaul and the debates. I'm a complicated person. I don't know who to vote for! Mimi Imfurst lost so much weight.

Well, I'm sorry Pandora is gone. But I'm torn between thinking she checked out and dropped the ball, and feeling sorry for her during Mimi's meltdown on Untucked, because what a freakin' train wreck. Her weight loss is impressive, though.

Hate the team format. Love Nina Flowers. Love that Tammie Brown is clearly from another planet.

I don't like the team format either. Pandora kind of gave up and Mimi just has serious issues.

Guys, I haven't been watching this! What is wrong with me? Normally this show is like crack for me.

I think it's because I have anxiety thinking about it. Like, I'm a weirdo who can't handle when people from multiple seasons of shows are on something together and interacting. I couldn't handle it when the three casts of the Real World got together for a reunion, and don't even get me started on the Laugh Olympics, where Scooby Doo was hanging out with Hucklebury Hound. Arg! Stop!

Also, I wonder if I am avoiding it because last season was so stressful? I didn't even watch the results show because by that point I couldn't watch Phi Phi Yappy Dog without feeling my blood pressure rise.

Now that the boring all-stars season is over, let's look forward to season five.

Trailer for season five.

We got makeup in the dark challenges, underwater drag, Ru with opera glasses, and someone working the runway on stilts. Looks interesting...

I don't mean to sound all sour grapes, but I really liked Raven both seasons, and I was wondering if Ru seems to just- not like her so much? It seemed like in the All- Stars final, Chad was consistent, but not a standout, and Raven had some brilliant moments. Sounded like the other judges were pushing for Raven (at least Santino) but I know we lose so much in editing. I have nothing against Chad, I enjoy watching him. It just seemed like a Tyra moment where all the judges are pushing for one result but Tyra keeps saying "But look at how fierce she is in this picture!!!!!!" until everyone else just gives up so they can go home.

You can watch all-but-the-elimination of the first episode through Facebook.

Detox, Lineysha, and Roxxxy are early favorites for me. Vivienne (and maybe Alaska) has potential. Ivy can actually sew, and sew well. Serena and Alyssa are the shit-stirrers. Jinkx (a narcoleptic) and Jade (a former porn actor) seem to be sweet/quirky.

Coco needs to last long enough to the "reading" challenge, because she is entertainingly snarky and should kill it. Terrible contact lens, though.

[puretrash]

Jade did porn? Ugh, I can't. She looks 12.

And I can't with Coco's contacts.

I also can't with all of these overplucked, oversculpted, and overwaxed eyebrows. Seriously, why?? That looks AWFUL out of drag, and it's a tell-tale that you're a drag queen.

And Serena can go. "Does it bother you that I'm 21?" I can't stand a bitch who immediately wants to try to get under people's skin because of their age. Look you ratchet trick, it don't matter if you're 21 if you AIN'T PRETTY. I thought she was gonna be cute in drag, but she looked straight up busted. 50 something Rupaul blows all of y'all bitches out of the water without even breaking a sweat.

Alaska lost me with giving up on the photo challenge. Seriously? After all these years? Girl, bye.

I won't spoil the lip sync, but it if only a certain person knew the damn words, they would probably be staying. Seriously. How bad do you really wanna be there if you can't be bothered to learn the songs?

[kostgard]

Serena does her eye makeup in a weird way that makes her look like she's on the verge of tears all the time.

The rumors are that two contestants fall for each other on the show, and one of the contestants is transitioning. I cannot figure out who that could be - they all appear to be living as boys out of drag.

This has been the best season! I loved the lipsyncing from previous memorable episodes from Untucked. The queens are great though I think they are playing up the bitchiness a bit. Still I'm really enjoying it.
