The 1947 version includes vocal arrangements by Kay Thompson that are just fucking spectacular. "He's a Ladies' Man" in particular is one of my favorite numbers of all time, doofy as it is.

And when you got there, you NEVER UNPACKED.

I used to do this with "I'm Like a Bird" by Nelly Furtado:

2. The skirt wouldn't have kept him out of the bottom 2, but what a reveal that would have been if he'd kept it and then torn if off for the lipsync.

My mom drag: come thruuuu elastic waistband realness

It is, not nearly as ubiquitous as it used to be though.

Bob's mom look reinforced to me that her aesthetic is middle aged mom who works at the DMV and cannot be bothered with your bullshit. It's an aspect of womanhood that is underrepresented in drag, obviously, so I'm not surprised when people don't get it or like it but I am all in.

I Wanna Be Like You.

Why wouldn't they though, AMC runs BBCA now.

I can't tell whether you're misreading the post or just incorrect, but there were multiple songs in the original.

And she wears lots of two pieces, if that.

I interpreted Bob as meaning three wins this season, but I don't remember what he said word for word.

"…may I leave the stage now?" Aw Derrick. You should be in the bottom 2 more often if it makes you that endearing.

Also deserving of a mention is David Amram who wrote the score. I think it's my favorite opening credits music of all time. Gorgeous, discordant and weird.

Well so she was a kid then, right? I've heard recordings of her in college and she was definitely in alto range in those recordings. I would love to be pleasantly surprised though.

A few years back there was a Broadway play about Jenkins called Souvenir. It was really funny and lovely and I was hoping this was based on that but it's not.

It was driving me crazy all episode that I couldn't figure out who she looked like! God bless you.

That's obviously true. Maybe I didn't express it well but I don't think anyone's trying to "liberate" anyone else — but I do think the method by which the interrogation takes place (i.e. about femininity, by men) matters. Otherwise don't you think drag kings would be a bigger deal culturally?

That brings up another interesting point though: rather than being misogynistic, is drag white-knighting? Like, hey women, you're stuck in a repressive, patriarchal society that doesn't let you express yourself fully. Know who can help you there? Me, a MAN.

Tintin, right?
