RuPaul's Drag Race (2 Viewers)

I CANNOT WAIT. All of the queens look good, I feel like we won't have to go through heaps of shit in the first few weeks like we did in season 5 before it got good.
 
I've been watching all the past seasons this past month. I can't believe I've missed this amazing show. It shits all over ANTM and Project Runaway.
 
SICKNING

I've been revisiting previous seasons too - I'd forgotten how good Tatianna's Snatch Game Britney was :D

And is it just me or is Main Event a properly good song? Stirring.
 
The Season 6 queens have recorded an album of RuPaul covers. Previews if you can be arsed:

Those covers are all awful, I want a new album not this crap.
 
Live Forever was a Livin' Joy/Love Inc hybrid that Janice Robinson and Tameka Starr would have fought to the death over, that chorus is immense especially on the treadmill. I was going to post my top 10, but it got a bit out of hand. He has so many good songs when not weighed down by self-help mantras, and a clutter of really shoddy ones more tired than Michelle Visage 30 seconds in to her spin class.
 
Now I sadly don't follow this show - I would if it was on a proper channel at a proper time etc - but (thanks to my facebook going mad about it every time) I DO follow the ongoing saga of various queens coming to Glasgow to perform at She Who Must Not Be Named's club nights. Last night it was DWV and apparently a lot of people are moaning about how badly things were run. Mainly posting this for monsta:

I appreciate all of your points but I'd have rather done what did, trying to allow as many people as possible to see the show and get a photo with the girls that paid for it. We don't favour having a restrictive door policy, unlike certain other clubs do. I think we'll need to change the name of the meet & greet tickets as it seems to be more of an issue of semantics than anything else. The point of the meet & greet is to allow those who want to a chance to get a photo with the talent. Not a sit down coffee and a chat. We are not a global or even nationwide organisation ran by a conglomerate. I do this all of my own back, because I enjoy bringing acts to Glasgow who otherwise wouldn't even be aware of where Scotland is. This was the busiest Menergy we've ever had. Ever. More so than Sharon Needles, or the last time DWV came. I don't actually get much of a take-home out of doing this. It all goes back in to booking more queens that YOU want to see. I appreciate that it might have been your first time at a Drag Race show, but normally they are only CONTRACTED to do 2-3 songs and a 30 minute meet & greet. They did 4 and spent closer to 2 hours doing the meet & greet. We had a boy come all the way from BUDAPEST in HUNGARY who had the time of his life, coming from a place which is not the most receptive to our lifestyle. I'm not saying it was perfect by ANY means but I think that, all things considered - including a LOT of stuff that you didn't see happen behind in the scenes in the run-up to the event - immigration detention centres, diva strops, moving hotels, all at cost to me - it went pretty well. In a way DWV (and by booking them, we) are a victim of their own success.

Bitter moaners would rather that Hungarian's head was kicked in back home :(
 
You can see photos from the "meet and greet" on AXM's page - "smiling through gritted teeth" doesn't BEGIN to cover it :D
 
I AM SO THERE. TA LOVE.

I hope it trumps the former AXM jewel in their crown - the album featuring the GIANT VEINY COCK in the style of a bucking bronco.
 
JESUS at those photos. I've always thought about going to one of the nights but in the end I can never be arsed. Michelle Visage is the only one I'd probably consider going to see. Paying to get a shitty photo is a load of crap though. £30? FUCK THAT.

And I had NO IDEA that's what The Munter looked like. AWFUL. And "immigration detention centres?" :D

He sometimes has a great look but there is zero fun involved. An utter toxic personality (and breath).
 
Reading some of the comments on the night I am so glad I never went. They charge £15 for a 30 second meet with the artists so you get a photo? Admittedly that's a lot cheaper than meet and greets for other artists but I still think it's a rip off. Especially if they artists don't give a fuck anyway.

I guess Munter does get the names in though. I wonder exactly how much it costs to get them over. They had 160 VIP tickets at £30 and about 200 I guess of normal tickets at £15, considering the size of the upper floor. That's almost £8k. When you factor in venue hire, promotion, flights and hotels etc they can't be paying the artists much for their appearance.
 
They did about 5 sold out nights in London beforehand

William kissed my brother on stage whilst performing 'Scream & Shout'
 
I can't find any torrents of the last two episodes of the All stars season. Help! :(
 
That's where I was trying to find them.


I'm sure this has been discussed in here before, but it's shocking how fat Shannel has become!
 
I have them on my laptop RS, but not sure how I'd get them to you as they're pretty big files...
 
We need to have that all-encompassing Drag Rate so I can laugh at videos of Nicole Paige Brooks again and again.
 
Kala, maybe dropbox?

We need to have that all-encompassing Drag Rate so I can laugh at videos of Nicole Paige Brooks again and again.

Yes to a drag rate! Nicole Paige I only feel sorry for.
 
Oh yeah I can upload them to we transfer once I'm back tonight if you still want them RS.
 
I just watched the Meet The Queens and it seems they got it much better than last year. I think the Australian is my least favorite but all in all great cast.

Two more weeks :disco:
 
i just watched my first episode of this this morning. s01e01. it was fun.
 
Season 1 is short and fun but it takes a huge leap in quality with season 2.
 
Whilst we sip our Absolut Vodka cocktails in the Interior Illusions lounge waiting for the main event, does anyone have a proper MP3 of this truly immense hardcore rave remix?

Drag Race Season rank

Season 2 (the one that got me hooked when I woke up during a bout of near pneumonia to see this on e4, at 1:30am and thinking I was delirious. Favourite episode...that same one I saw that night, the book challenge. 'I'll read a bitch. I'll read ya to filth!')

Season 4 (Latrice, or Patrice as my friend mistakenly called her, Willam, Sharon...almost won out but I detested the live final)

Season 1 (so cheap but has some glorious moments-the Destiny's Child challenge, the Tori Spelling interviews, the Absolut flavour-inspired outfit task)

Season 3 (Bit obvious who was the eventual winner from way too early on, Boogers vs Heathers dragged on, but still do love episodes 3 and 4)

Season 5 (Alyssa and Jinkx excepted, I found the cast to be bland this year. Too much false emotion/fake drama set up too, with some appalling lipsynchs)

All Stars (Ugh. Too knowing, hated the team aspect, undeserving winner in my opinion)

Season 2: my two favourite drag queens ever Raven and Jujubee
Season 4: first one I watched while it was aired, the first episode is one of the best ever
Season 3: loved Shangela, she brought so much to the show, hated the Heathers.
Season 5: Too many shit queens (Honey Mahogany anyone?), thank fuck for Alyssa :disco:
All Stars: it was fun for what it was, but it didn't feel like the real show, plus Raven was robbed. AGAIN :manson:
Season 1: Only watched it once.
 
Alyssa is indeed the only true delight of Season 5. She's trying to get her own show (Beyond Belief) started btw!
