Hooray, an improv challenge! I am of the firm belief that improv comedy has very little to do with being a drag queen so these challenges are kind of silly, but RuPaul’s Drag Race is nothing if not a completely contrived vacuum where all of the conditions are dictated by one God-woman and taken as […]
This episode starts with some residual tension between Mayhem and Monique, after Mayhem called Monique out for not being a good team leader in the last episode, which ultimately lead to Mayhem being in the bottom.

The Amazing Race crowned two of the primary perpetrators of that same […]
Hoo boy, Drag Race fans, what a week for our beloved little show…
I’ll be honest: This episode made me nervous. It made me nervous for the queen sin the bottom, which was essentially a worst case scenario, but more than that, it made me nervous that in this age of VH1 and hour and a half long episodes, Drag Race has refocused into a reality show first […]
