RuPaul's Drag Race
 

Is anyone else watching this on Logo or VH1?

It is like America's Next Top Model meets Project Runway and American Idol.

Santino is a regular judge, and the guest judges and appearances have so far included:
Tori Spelling
Bob Mackie
Michelle Williams

I love how RuPaul is in a suit giving advice ala Tim Gunn for the challenges, and then for the judging he is a morph of Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks, I refer to as Heidra.

Lipsync for your Life!

I'm watching it on VH1. I didn't see the last episode so i'm not sure if Akaisha is gone, but she HAS to go. I'm soo over her attitude, it's ridiculous.

Some of these men make gorgeous women, like Rebecca and Ongina (when she has hair). Nina is wierd looking as a woman, but a cute guy. And Bebe is just freaking monster-like ala HellBoy movies.

My two favorites are Bebe and Ongina. The Oprah episode made my mind up.

The challenge about the MAC Viva Glam AIDS and HIB spokes model piece made me :(

So I decided to check this show out. It's actually pretty interesting (I already watch ANTM and have seen PR a few times).

It's time to lip-synch...for your LIFE. And don't f--k it up! -- Ru is a damn fool LOL

The laugh is so crazy, I love it.

One of my favorites got eliminated :(

Charo is on this week. She kills me. There is an Absolut Vodka challenge.

Spooning leads to forking!

I'm the biggest bitch in the world!

Soul Train line!

so sunday i stayed in the bed and watch the Dragthon of season 3. it was pretty awesome!

unfortunately, ep 1 of the new season was not any fun. too many "characters" - not enough personality. maybe i'll watch later in the season when the weaklings are weeded out.

If you go to logo online they have small bits posted, one of my favorites is "untucked" where the contestants are filmed in the Interior Illusions Lounge and so much shade is thrown people are getting tennis elbow.

Oh, how I love this show! Season is my all-time favorite - LOVED "The Snatch Game"! I'm alarmed at the "meth-couture" look of this season. Some of these guys need to eat a cheeseburger...

I gotta question was Chad Michaels on another season? His name sounds familiar.

Oh gurl, RuPaul's Drag Race ALL STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I seriously cannot wait to see them lip syncing for their lives.

Thoughts on tonight's episode?

:eek:

Apparently they're not going to explain what went down until the reunion.

I think not telling us what went down was complete audience manipulation. I'm disappointed in them. There's a bit of me that thinks the reason may be that Willam is transitioning just from a few things I've observed. I could be way off base there though.

PhiPhi (what a great Greek drag name) is a beotch who is being set up for a big fall.

Sharon FTW.

Top rumors so far:

• He was popping Adderall to keep his weight down and give himself a performance edge.

• He was secretly taking hormones. (I don't think this is it. AFAIK contestants on the regular season aren't supposed to be in transition, but the producers don't seem to be sticklers about this. Sonique came out as transgender at the Season 2 reunion, and they're letting her be considered for All Stars as well as Carmen Carrera—and if she isn't transitioning, I'll eat my hat. Plus Willam has hinted in interviews that Kenya Michaels is/was on hormones. Besides, Willam just doesn't look like he's transitioning.)

• He had smuggled in a phone/laptop and was leaking info during production.

• He had someone "on the outside" buying him clothes and supplies for the competitions.

• He had signed a performance/endorsement deal in violation of his contract with the show.

• He slept with Santino or one of the Pit Crew. :)

And yeah, Phi Phi is a miserable human being.

I've read that he may have been sneaking out at night. A hangover would explain the puking (as would some pill popping, esp. when you see him sucking down drinks in the the Interior Illusions Lounge).

I've also read that it may be a stunt cooked up by Willam, possibly with RuPaul's knowledge. He was never going to win, and now he'll be SO memorable (and it gave RuPaul an out instead of having to eliminate Sharon/PhiPhi). I assume he DID break the rules (as Tom&Lorenzo put it on their fab blog, "that was some barfing realness") but may have done so in order to get DQ'd.

Any way you slice it, though, I think he probably, like Keith on Project Runway S3, broke multiple rules (breaking curfew & something drug/clothes related is my guess).

God I love this show.

Sahara Davenport has died.

New season started this week! :D

Alpha Phi Omega Brother Carson Kressley is one of two new judges this season (along with Ross Matthews), replacing Santino.

These queens need better names. Max? Katya? Come on.
