Why do I keep thinking of Eminem in drag when I see Phoenix…?
OMG…you are soooo right!
So happy this show is back but it sucks that it now airs at 10pm. To me, Phoenix & Venus D-Lite looks like the same queens to me. No lie, Stacy Layne Matthews looks like someone in my family. She/he looks too much like a girl. Even Tatianna who was totally gorgeous and could pass as a girl in drag looked like a boy out of drag. Maybe someone should look underneath the tent and make sure there is a pole there. All I have to say is 90% of those queens can make an outfit for me ANY DAY! I like Raja, Delta Work & Manila Luzon. Oh yes…Vanessa Williams is too GORGEOUS! Those boobs were saying Hello I’m here!
sick
Stacy Layne Matthews is a real guy. She is a fierce bitch! She gives real fish and always has. She doesn’t need all the makeup to look like a girl….
Sorry, but once again RuP’ “sashay’ed” the totally incorrect one home (Again !). By the judgment of their “photo” and “outfits” Mariah should have gone rather than Venus D-Lite. (Mariah outfit was was waaay worse !) …
(
Venus was way more polished, “edgier” and her make-up was damn flawless. …
HOWEVER she did unfortunately let herself down on the lipsync-off. Where she lost all concentration & composure. BUT then again, Shangela was bating her. And I’m pretty sure she “lost it” because she felt like she was being robber. (Which she WAS !) … Shangela acted just as unfairly towards her. BUT she should have retained control, and perhaps she’d still be in the running. (I’m sure she still had much up her sleeve !) ~ So personally I was sad to see her go !
That said, … >>> … RAJA TO WIN !!!
Loved the premiere! That was a nasty lip synch for your life! At least the queens in this season most of them are more catty than just a few like in past seasons. There is going to be a lot more drama.
And why the hell is Shangela throwing her drink at someone? Was it Mimi? I’m sorry but i’d rather have someone else than Shangela try again, she had her chance. Plus how the hell did she end up lip synching for her life in the first episode again???
I’m over these queens who think drag means dressing like a stripper or streetwalker…and their attitudes that match.
I love you, Tanner. Your posts are my favorite (next to Annie Barrett, of course).
I just think it’s unimaginative and cheap to bring a contentastant who was eliminated already last season. It’s obvious Ru or his backers didn’t have enough quility contestants although I think Venus was better than that tired Shangela. Plus, what a competition when the host of the show can decide who goes or stays or worse yet, who comes back. I know it’a tv show but I thought Ru called this a “COMPETITION” Like American Idol, this will shoon fizzle – I can’t wait!!!!
I like to watch the guys transform. What glue do you use for the lace wigs? Don’t act bitchy for rating, it can ruin a good show. Just compete your heart out.
Alexis is from Florida, PR. she lives in st pete/tampa. don’t forget about the amazing Yara Sofia from San Juan!!
Did you see Shangela on the Untucked episode? I seriously think she is trying to be the Raven of this season! Like she sat at home watching the shows and decided the best way to get attention is to act like someone like Raven and constantly stir the pot back stage to get more camera time and be talked about. Thing is Raven is awesome and has a likability and can show vulnerable sometimes, Shangela can not pull this off. She changed her whole persona and went from sweet and innocent to mean and dirty just for a tv show. I hope Shangela goes home soon because of this, it’s sad.
I happen to know Mimi sewed an entire outfit that fell apart but it was edited out. That’s why she was so upset. The fabric she chose was not user friendly. RPDR is one big scam of edits to show contestants in contrived narratives. The editors are writers, essentially.
