I also hate Mickey Rooney! Looking at him makes me feel weird and uncomfortable, like I’m seeing something that just shouldn’t be.
It’s interesting to me that people who easily see gender as a construct see race as somehow essentialist. Race is also a construct; the idea of race as we perceive it (i.e. related to a geographic genetic heritage) is pretty recent, and some have argued, came about to justify European colonialism/slave trade.
That cat is terrible. Why is it so moist?
Yes Ginj was talented and funny sometimes but I’m one of the fans who was turned off by her saying that her biggest fear was dancing in front of people and the “overcoming obstacles” narrative it created. We didn’t hear anything about her being nervous about choreo before that episode (also she has choreographer…
Sorry, had to stop reading after your aired your awful opinion that Kennedy had the best lip sync of all time... WRONG. Bitch did tricks and flips but failed to actually lip sync. HENCE, it cannot be the greatest lip sync in the history of the show.
I gotta 100% disagree with you about Kennedy’s version of “Roar.” Katya gave me CHILLS during that song, and I was dumbstruck when she was sent home. It wasn’t quite on par with Latrice Royal DESTROYING Kenya Michaels with her “Natural Woman,” but I definitely felt similarly about it — one queen using emotion,…
My overwhelming love of Mom aside, this is Violet’s offering to drag and I love it. Of the three I backed her and I super back this, with the back of my hand and the front of my loins.
Agreed! I would have loved to see a plus -size winner and Ginger is very talented, but having a plus-size winner would be the only reason I would have wanted her to win. Going into the finale, I knew that I would be fine if either Ginger or Violet won (I love Pearl, but I don’t think she’s #1 material), but after…
I agree! If I hadn’t watched Untucked, I would have continued to root for Ginger, but she and Kennedy showed a real ugliness that was entirely unpleasant. The whole thing about, “You’re young, so you won’t know how to handle yourself” is tired as fuck (and I say this as someone closer in age to Ginger and Kennedy than…
SHARON didn’t bring it to the runway? Oh girl no
Did we watch the same show???? Kennedy SUCKED and should have gone home weeks ago. KATYA was robbed.
Any “wuz robbed!!” discussion about this season that’s not about Katya isn’t worth having
Violet had some of the best growth this season in her personality, and even Kasha Davis said so when all the queens came back. The last episode and the last Untucked really made it clear that she had grown and wasn’t an angry child anymore because while Ginger and Kennedy just kept talking about how you have to be…
Ginger didn’t win because people finally caught up with her schtick. The AV Club has had a great series of takedowns on how her persona is more affected and comes from a place of far more dishonesty. For example, don’t call yourself a, “bitter old lady” when you are seven years older than the winner and still in your…
If I’m perfectly honest, I didn’t really care for any of the final four. I feel like I’d seen Kennedy and Gingers look in every show bar I’ve been to in the south, and the other two were just pretty.
Violet was always going to win. Rupaul has consistently picked the queen with the most editorial style, and Ginger is too safe in that regard. Ginger’s costume is always classic and well put together, but not very thoughtful. She is a class act and a professional - which I’m sure come from her, in equal parts, nerve…
ALASKA WAS ROBBED
