Guess what?
Season 5 of RuPaul's Drag Race begins in just 11 days. And I can't wait!
Is there anybody else as excited as me? (Or even slightly excited. You don't have to be as excited as me. Because I'm really excited. Like, weirdly excited. A little bit TOO excited.)
Look at those gorgeous girls.
I already have my favourites and the show hasn't even started yet! But. Jinkx Monsoon had me in her Meet the Queen video from the moment she mentioned 'Broadway'. I'm a theatre gal and so is Ms. Monsoon. I ended up watching basically every video of her that exists on the internet and I am IN LOVE. (I highly recommend her Monsoon Season videos on Funnyordie.com. HILARIOUS.)
I also love Alaska Thunderf**k! Since I'm a big Sharon Needles fan, I already knew who Alaska was (they're dating, if you're unaware) and I was already a fan. I saw her and met her last weekend and now I'm even more in love. She's so delightfully weird and lovely.
And Detox! Again, already knew who she was due to being fans of previous queens. She was in the 'Chow Down' song/video with Willam and I think she's so funny and I love her look and I'm really excited to see her in action.
Anyways, now that I've rambled... What are your thoughts? HOW EXCITED ARE YOU?! Any favourites yet? What are you looking forward to the most?
And if you don't have much to say about the season that hasn't even started yet... just talk about past seasons, that's totally fine too.

RIGHT?!
Isn't Jinkx just so pretty? Not to mention SO TALENTED. I hope this season has some sort of singing challenge because Jinkx will be the best and beat everyone! She played Angel in a production of RENT not too long ago -- and since RENT is one of my all-time favourite shows, that right there is enough to make me fall in love with her. My friend (who lives in Seattle, where Jinkx is from) saw RENT and said that Jinkx was fantastic (and this was before we knew who she even was!) Now she's performing as Hedwig in Hedwig and the Angry Inch and I wish I could see it so badly! But... it's in Seattle and I am in Florida. I do plan on forcing my Seattle-dwelling friend to go in my place, though.
LOVE HER.0 -
The first episode is online!!!!!
Here are some quick thoughts after watching (nothing spoiler-y!):
The right person won the photo challenge.
The wrong person won the main challenge.
Even though they won't show who got eliminated until Monday, it's pretty obvious based on that lip sync.
I knew people were gonna be throwing shade at Alaska because of Sharon, so I was prepared for it, but it still upset me.
Jinkx is the most precious little angel in the entire world.
And that's all I have to say for now!0 -
It doesn't air here! D< And I can't watch the episodes online because they're always on USA-viewers-only websites. UHG.
I loved Ongina in the first season though (that did air here). OMG She was tooooooo effing adorbs. I was so disappointed that she didn't win! :c0 -
Oh no! I'm sure you could find some downloads online, though! If you just do a google search for "RuPaul's Drag Race S(whatever season number)E(whatever episode number)" you should get some results! That's what I do whenever I miss an episode. (I don't have Logo, I have to go to a friend's house to watch it, but there have been times when I haven't been able to, but can't wait until it's on the Logo website the next day. I have a serious obsession. It's kind of a problem.)
But yes, I completely agree! Ongina is soooo precious. Her being sent home when she did (especially before Rebecca Glasscock -- ugh!) is quite possibly the biggest disappointment that has EVER happened on that show!0 -
bumpin' cause I just wanna talk about draaaaag queeeeeeeens.0 -
I am excited too!! I wasn't aware that Alaska was going to be on!!! I wonder if this means we will get to see more of Sharon! YAY!!0

That's amazing! I would love to be a drag queen. Unfortunately, I am already a woman. But I love convincing some of my male friends to let me put them in drag!0 -

It leaves from Miami and goes to Jamaica, Caymen Islands, Cozumel, and the Bahamas.
The previous Drag Cruise that just happened in December looked SO AMAZING and I was so sad that I couldn't go (I was stage managing a play that had performances the same days as the cruise. Sad.) So I REALLY want to go on this one! But I'm nervous because it's so far from now and I'm applying to new colleges out of Florida and I might end up being in a different state and busy when the cruise happens. Plus, Yara Sofia isn't on this one and she's my favourite and I want to be stuck on a boat with her. But I still really want to go!!!!

Yep. You sure did. 0

I'm gonna revive this again... just in case anybody feels like talking about the most recent episode or if they wanna join that group up there ^
(PS: could Jinkx BE any cuter?)0 -
Love this show! So glad I'm not the only person on here who has an affinity for drag culture. I can tell you love jinkx (she is definitely my fav) - watch this video as it made me respect her even more than I already do:
http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=QwvF3RAirVc&desktop_uri=/watch?v=QwvF3RAirVc0 -
Yay! This thread was revived and I didn't do it myself!!!!
And oh man, I've already watched all of the Drag Becomes Him videos multiple times (to the point where I have them basically memorized) as well as all of the Monsoon Season videos and... I mean, I'm kind of a huge stalker of Jinkx (in a respectful way!)
I can't believe the season is almost over, oh my goooooosh. At this point, I really believe that any of the top three could take the crown and it would make sense. I mean, it's pretty obvious who I'm rooting for, but I'll also be really happy if Alaska wins too!0 -
I always love learning that other people love the show as much as I do. And I love that you also have your profile pic highlighting your drag queen love. I so want to be a drag queen for a day!!!0
