    We should be blaming the problem. Ru is the problem. Ru has a history of not rewarding risk or talent. It's almost always lip syncs to your own track that win. Safe wins. Knowing that, why would the queens branch out and do something different? This season set a really bad precedent. This is a clear message to all queens: the runway does not matter. Do not invest in the runway package. Meanwhile, the runway, according to polling, is the general public's favorite part of the show. Why would you invest so much time and money into this if it does not matter? This was a very short-sighted season that will come with consequences.

    These are some really excellent points that compliment a lot of what our own team feels about the current state of Drag Race. For as much as we love the franchise, it could do with a lot of retooling. It's why we use our platform to express what we do AND don't love about the process, in the hopes that Ru will listen to her audience and evolve accordingly. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment! We hope you'll join us and watch our future coverage of Drag Race, including Canada Vs The World and the upcoming Global All Stars! It's sure to be an exciting year for Drag Race 😁💕💖

    Agree. Still remember when Bianca del Rio didn’t do any lip sync & she still won. I watched the AS9 season & I judged the Queens according to their performances in all episodes. Gottmik & Plastique are non-winners who have high potential to get more notoriety & income than the other wonderful Queens. Gottmik & Plastique exhibit superb design work, huge fandom, & smart cultivation of their brand. Honestly, I enjoyed watching these multi-talented Queens show their stuff - including Angelique, the fireman to pussy cat Queen. Thanks ‘X for Show’ for telling me about the special qualities of each AS 9 Queens, which may have been lost in production. Chef’s kiss.

    The only reason why I was a bit disappointed in the documentary was because I watched so many clips of it on KZread before I actually watched the documentary, that it lost some of its effect. I am lucky to be bilingual so I like both her French and English songs. In French, I would have to say Pour que tu m'aimes encore and Ziggy and in English All by myself. I equate what she is going through to a hockey player trying to come back from another injury and who cannot bring himself to retire even though he may have won the Stanley Cup and Olympic medals. She is fighting to come back, but at what cost to her health. Like a hockey player who has only known hockey all his life, she has only known singing all her life. And after losing her husband, parents and brother, the love of her fans keeps her going. Of course the love of her kids too. I wish her all the best in her recovery and hope that she can find a balance of everything - still doing what she loves, but maybe less singing and something different. Maybe she can become the manager to find the next mega superstar.

    The film is mainly aimed at Celine's fans, as well as at raising awareness of this rare syndrome. The director took some things as common knowledge, that's why there are parts which are confusing to the general population. Celine really loves Maria Callas for example, she has talked multiple times about her which is why you see the film starting with her and there are mentions of her during the film. Or the moment of All By Myself that someone else already explained. The songs used aren't necessarily Celine's biggest hits and there are many better songs missing but the purpose of the doc isn't Celine's legacy, career or success, the purpose is to showcase this particular moment in time and what SPS has done to her by contrasting these vivid moments on stage where she is running around and performing out of her mind, to her current situation. Regarding the absense of mentioning Celine's money and "luck", Celine herself has talked about it during her recent interviews, it's not that she doesn't realize her privilege but obviously the director didn't consider it as an integral part.

    She cracked while performing All By Myself in that clip because it was the first performance after her husband/manager had passed and now she was All By Herself. That is why it was so emotional and why the audience was so encouraging.

What I have to say for now is I believe that Roxie is the prechosen winner. No matter how things appear, something tells me there will be some type of twist that pushes Roxie to the top. Awesome observations Friends. BTW I didn't know it was an Olympic Summer either. If they had a Fur Buddy Olympics I'd remember that.😊❤ See you next week. Hugs 🫂 from Vancouver.

    "I would much prefer Mirage stay than Mhiya. Mhiyas mistakes were early out mistakes." Mirage fucked up the group challenge and didnt know the words to the lip sync. What did you want production do? Save her for no reason? Then the fandom hates her because production saved her. Mhiya might have sucked in the challenges but she turned the lip syncs out. Give Mhiya her flowers damn. The show is about showcasing queer talent. The talent has to deliver.

We wonder what Mirage might've shown if she'd been given more chances, compared to what Mhi'ya did with the chances given.

    Thank you for being honest about your feelings for Nymphia. Ngl, I think this was a purely business decision. Nymphia has an extremely strong international influence around the globe, and the drag community everywhere in Asia was rooting for her, HARD. RPDR has grown its tentacles far and wide from its base in the US, and I think they are trying to bring in viewership outside of the US. Asia being the largest continent in the world with the most number of people, I think thats the step they are taking with Nymphia's win. Its all about the money. 💸 With that said, as a gaysian staying outside of the US, the banana queen did it for 4.7 billion people. 🙇‍♂️🍌👑

Something we discuss in our video is the political and financial factors that go into making decisions for the Drag Race franchise, but it's still inarguable that Nymphia more than proved herself with both her talent and her behavior, always leading with the utmost kindness and candor.

    For me the final, wasn't stage by Trishelle and CT, it was damn to risky. If Mj vote for CT the game was totally over for them. Trishelle in an interview on RHAP, said before the last roundtable, Sandra confessed to her she was sure Phaedra was her Traitor angel. And asked Trishelle who did she think was hers?? ! A very deep question for Trishelle, because she was so surprised to still be in the game. And Sandra said "I'm sure yours is CT... "😮, putting more paranoia on Trishelle about CT. I believe this story because it's totally a game move Sandra will make. So this crazy end where Trishelle vote CT, was a real suspicion Trishelle already have on CT but the result of Sandra fucking game play!! And I love that for Sandra, she's damn good. And for me, Mj made a bad move by cutting her real ally, by banishing Sandra. And I'm sure Sandra will have cut CT and Trishelle at the end, and bring MJ to the win.

Maybe Kuder was never intended to be THE long term artist on Ahmed's run the way Checchetto was with Zdarsky (or any of the MANY amazing writer/artist duos we've had over the years on DD)? Or maybe he is and the seeming revolving artist door is due to story presentation? I also haven't looked too closely at Marvel solicits to see who is on tap for the next few issues. Thoughts?
