RuPaul's Drag Race / Drag U (Mondays 9PM, Logo)

[Gala62]

oh boy, I about died when they said Phi Phi was the new generation of drag...wtf???
I don't think so!

I, too, think Ru was going for Phi Phi, but realized that opinion was against her.

The main thing I see against Chad honestly is Raja. Having an "older" winner last time is going to hurt her. I hope Ru wises up though and rewards a consumate professional.

And the winner is:

YES! Tra la la, tra la la!

That was one messy reunion show, but it was a lot of fun too. And ALL BOW BEFORE SHARON NEEDLES!

My faith in this show has been restored. I don't know what I would have done if Ru had crowned Phi Phi, but I think he knew that would be suicide for the show.

And congrats to Miss Congeniality, Miss Latrice Royale! The crowd went crazy for her, I was so happy for her.

What a crazy season. And from what Ru was saying, I guess there's going to be another season of Drag U this summer before All-Stars this fall. We're coming close to having year-round Drag Race! It's breeding like Top Chef spinoffs...

And it turns out Willam's story wasn't so much evil as funny (if it's true): He had to keep the fact that he was on the show from his husband, so he told him that he was going to Canada to shoot a low-budget movie. His husband supposedly tracked him down, and ended up spending some "quality time" with him in his hotel room, which what is against the rules.

It doesn't really add up, since all the other queens were able to tell their partners/loved ones about being there. But hey, if there's more to it, then it's either boring, or so ugly that we're better off not knowing...

Yep, I was rooting for Chad . . .

But I grew to like Sharon, too, so I'm glad she won, and congratulations and good luck to her!

Had Phi Phi taken the crown, I'd've stopped watching!

And kudos to Latrice! If ANYBODY deserved Miss Congeniality and a professorial spot on Drag U, it was her!

Pretty satisfying, all around!!

I am having to watch the Logo site for the episodes this season, but am not bothered with spoilers. That said, I'm glad that someone other than a couture drag (probably not correct, but I have felt that way with the past two season's winners), didn't win. Sharon just seems interesting in her Goth type persona, and it's original and admittedly creative.

As far as William - I think this is the clincher: You say that they were allowed to tell their loved ones/partners that they were competing.

The violation here would be that his husband came to the place they were staying in, and fooled around. It would be that he was there, which could end up causing leaks if someone put two and two together as to the standings of contestants, and therefore I can see the DQ.

I just hope that the night was worth the DQ.

[Gala62]

Happy for Sharon...VERY happy Phi Phi didn't get it. I sure hope to see Chad on future shows asap! what a class act

New season of Drag U starts tonight at 9PM ET.

That should tide us over until All-Star Drag Race this fall, and then another season of Drag Race in late January.

I was sooooo happy that Latrice Royale was one of the makeover professors last night. So happy to see her. And of course I was pleased as punch to see Jujubee. She's ma'fave.

[its_glinda_now]

It was great to see Latrice and Juju last night. Love them!
I also really like Manilla but she was looking pretty rough last night, that wig was just not werkin for her, but she always cracks me up.

[ness]

Yeah, I liked all three, too, but I just LOVED seeing Latrice!

She's great!

Also, is it just me, or did her makeup seem to be blended a little better? Her cheek shading seemed to have stepped up a notch, and I liked that.

And, yeah, I agree . . . Manila is cool by me, but compared to Latrice and Juju, she DID look JUST a little wee tad bit rode hard and put up wet!!!!!!

LOL!
