00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.400
- If I were asked to make a cameo

2
00:00:03.400 --> 00:00:07.620
in the WAP music video,
which I clearly was.

3
00:00:07.620 --> 00:00:11.360
I'd be like one of the snakes
writhing all over Cardi B

4
00:00:11.360 --> 00:00:13.190
and all over Megan Thee Stallion.

5
00:00:13.190 --> 00:00:14.700
- I am Asia O'Hara.

6
00:00:14.700 --> 00:00:16.830
- Hi, I'm Yvie Oddly.

7
00:00:16.830 --> 00:00:18.533
- And this is a Jezebel Quickies.

8
00:00:19.410 --> 00:00:20.945
- Hello, Las Vegas.

9
00:00:20.945 --> 00:00:23.660
- RuPaul's Drag Race Vegas Revue,

10
00:00:23.660 --> 00:00:25.360
the live show itself is different

11
00:00:25.360 --> 00:00:28.870
than any other type of
show I've done on tour.

12
00:00:28.870 --> 00:00:31.260
Because it's the first time where

13
00:00:31.260 --> 00:00:35.900
not only are fans coming
to specifically see you,

14
00:00:35.900 --> 00:00:39.590
but also people who have
absolutely no idea who you are,

15
00:00:39.590 --> 00:00:41.020
what a Drag Queen is.

16
00:00:41.020 --> 00:00:42.090
- Looks like a Broadway show.

17
00:00:42.090 --> 00:00:44.880
There's a script, there's
very specific staging cues

18
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:45.713
and lighting cues.

19
00:00:45.713 --> 00:00:49.460
Everything is very well, but
very specifically produced.

20
00:00:49.460 --> 00:00:51.660
There's not a lot of room for error.

21
00:00:51.660 --> 00:00:53.240
If your zipper gets stuck,

22
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:56.140
you're now one second late
in your cubicle on stage.

23
00:00:56.140 --> 00:00:59.810
- Fans can expect to get not only snippets

24
00:00:59.810 --> 00:01:03.060
of like how we as Queens
relate to each other,

25
00:01:03.060 --> 00:01:07.110
but also how we relate to
each other as individuals,

26
00:01:07.110 --> 00:01:10.450
human beings, friends like lovers haters.

27
00:01:10.450 --> 00:01:12.930
I feel like there were so
many unexpected struggles

28
00:01:12.930 --> 00:01:16.690
that came up in order to
make a show like this work.

29
00:01:16.690 --> 00:01:19.680
Drag Queens are fiercely independent

30
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:22.950
and fiercely stubborn about our visions

31
00:01:22.950 --> 00:01:24.870
and how we wanna be
expressed to the world.

32
00:01:24.870 --> 00:01:29.550
This was the first time where
it took a cast of six people,

33
00:01:29.550 --> 00:01:32.320
who are used to being the
star of their own show,

34
00:01:32.320 --> 00:01:35.560
to learn how to fit into
this bigger picture.

35
00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:37.730
And so we really had to sacrifice a lot

36
00:01:37.730 --> 00:01:40.490
to learn how we as an ensemble,

37
00:01:40.490 --> 00:01:43.500
could put on an amazing
show night after night.

38
00:01:43.500 --> 00:01:47.710
- My favorite entertainer
that had a show in Vegas,

39
00:01:47.710 --> 00:01:49.430
probably would be Lola Falana.

40
00:01:49.430 --> 00:01:52.150
One of the very first
Vegas show girls of color.

41
00:01:52.150 --> 00:01:54.290
She's saying she dance,
she had variety shows.

42
00:01:54.290 --> 00:01:58.810
And she was just glamour and
sex appeal and showmanship.

43
00:01:58.810 --> 00:02:02.336
An incredible legend and often
overlooked and underrated.

44
00:02:02.336 --> 00:02:04.427
And she's spectacular.

45
00:02:04.427 --> 00:02:07.010
(upbeat music)
