The thing about an all-winners season: it would about have to be a regular season rather than an All Stars one. By the time WoW gets around to the next cycle of production, there will be fifteen winners, and they’d have to do a whole All Stars 1 trick to eliminate enough queens in eight episodes (but please correct me…

I have to say, I truly appreciate Kate looking through and not seeing any kind of objective competition happening here. Not just because of the judges’ subjectivity, but because of the ways the producers are setting up long and short story arcs in the guise of an objective competition; the issues of finer details of…

I am generally not about Monique’s paint (nor Mayheym Miller’s, nor Eureka O’Hara’s, if you want to get down to it). When your face is noticeably shades different from the rest of your body, something has gone wrong. Something in me wants to be seriously tacky and buy these queens some gloves so we can’t see how…

Gia wasn’t season seven.  She might have actually stood a chance on season seven. No, Gia was facing down BenDeLaCreme, Courtney Act, Adore Delano and Bianca del Rio in season six. It’s where she met her erstwhile Los Angeles housemate, the Denver-bound Laganja Estranja.

Laura Innes is a bad, bad woman.

Oh, and Stacy Layne has been owed some RuPaul love since the season three reunion (Raja is so full of it) for all that she went through with the Heathers bullying. It’s too bad that any interaction she had with Manila didn’t make the episode. “Who the f*ck is Heather,” indeed. Now “Everybody Say Love” again and we…

Hmmm. Well, it depends on what challenge Latrice or Manila wins first, because no doubt the one who doesn’t win will be in the bottom, and the other will win the lip-sync.

You’re not wrong, but at the same time, Farrah was there because Valentina was there.

Let’s break it down to the main trope that is ultimately rooted in casting choices:

Hmm. Sonique didn’t identify as trans during her time on Drag Race, though she kind of was working through some trans thinking at the time. Monica Beverly Hillz came out as trans during critiques in season five. Carmen Carerra didn’t identify herself as trans during season three, either. Among all of the Drag Race cont…

It seems only fair that Jenifer, as Shangela’s former boos and continuing landlord (as far as I’ve heard), should be a Drag Race judge in All Stars season four, after Shangela was done, but that probably goes without saying. I do wish we’d gotten to hear more of her in the critiques, because I think she’s as…

I like the fact that Kate chose the term “well-rehearsed,” because the queens aren’t supposed to know who’s going to be in the workroom before they get there, and yet some of the zingers in the final cut and the extra footage seem detailed to perfection, which to me suggests that they did multiple takes for each read…

Manila got a wicked read off on Trinity in the “extended scene” (read: the good stuff that got cut so they could include that stupid judges bit in the finished episode), but it was still one of those things where Manila was poking at Trinity about things Trinity has made no secret of. The main thing about the…

Ah, well. Can’t be bad to be rid of him, even if it costs her something.

Actually, when Laaila was still a toddler, she went to Russia with Candace, where she was cared for in part by Parker’s mother. Still, you’re on the money — so to speak — about how much Parker earns in Europe, and like Diana Taurasi, the player you referred to that was paid extra to sit out a WNBA season, Parker has…

Not always. Some documentary shorts show Parker in Russia with both her mother and daughter during the main part of that league's season.

So what was that hour Tiffany did for Showtime, then? I mean, the cameras were on, the mics were live,the audience was there and everything. She even did a press junket the week it premiered.

I feel it too, but I had the added pressure of having successful parents who had gotten all the first-generation things out of the way (my father graduated Phi Beta Kappa from an HBCU, but didn’t get very deep into a graduate program because I was born four months after he graduated and couldn’t find a job, what with…

“Exact same?" Mostly. Around the time Chicago came out (or a bit after), Latifah got into kickboxing, and with all the workouts she was getting, she lost forty pounds, from everywhere but her chest. She was having back pain, so she went in for breast reduction. A few years after that, she took that Jenny Craig…

Isn't Kim blonde, or am I just stuck in RHOA?
