Who watched Drag Race yesterday evening for the VIVA GLAM shoot?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

Did you not want to just hug Ongina when she won and spoke about being HIV+

it was so moving and yes, i teared up watching her

1. I saw it...

I was watching with my friend / semi-significant other / whatever we are these days.... Of course, given the situation, he found it very moving and needed to be hugged... But I think the "celebrate" message hit home with him...

:hug:

2. and i wanted to slap rebecca glasscock for her CLEAR fakeness

about an issue that a lot of us are personally involved in

[SacredCow]

3. Yeah, that appeared to be some sub-B grade acting to me.....

Assuming that the friend is real, most people would take the stance of "I'm doing this for her!" and give it their all. Glasscock is confusing "Drag Queen" with "Drama Queen."

4. Not to mention her makeup job for the Viva Glam shoot

she looked like a police photo after a 4am bar fight.

[SacredCow]

5. Agreed...

It was not very glam, to say the least...

[La Lioness Priyanka]

6. yeah i didnt get that. esp cos she just bitched someone out for not doing make up well

she is gorgeous but kinda soulless

[sui generis]

13. she not too bright

I was sorry to see Jade go - I liked the person backstage.

I'm shaping up to favor Bebe . . . there is something more mature and centered; even if I were blind and just listening I hear something a little deeper there.

And oh yeah, it's a drag show!

Did I ever tell you I was raised deep in the forest by a pack of wild drag queens?

;) . . . :cry:

all gone now, with big big pieces of my heart

[La Lioness Priyanka]

14. i liked jade too. she is nice and just shy. plus she has the big cock

:P

[90-percent]

7. yeah yeah yeah

But can they reach 100 mph in 8/10ths of a second like a modern Top Fuel Dragster? I think not!

300 mph in four seconds flat? I didn't think so.


-90% Jimmy

(90% refers to the legal percentage limit of nitromethane fuel in the current modern fuel classes. "Nostalgia nitro" classes allow up to 100% nitro!)

8. And while we're at it

I really like Ongina and Nina Flowers but what's up with Shannel?

For someone who has as much professional experience as Shannel is supposed to have she makes some really bad costume choices, she should have switched the looks from last week and this week. Her sally Jesse Raphael look would have worked better for the interview challenge and her red sequined number with the door knockers was much more Viva Glam, but in the end she won me over with the juggling catwalk and the skillful tucking it took to wear that backless number.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

9. yeah, shannel is overly confident. i think being on the bottom has helped her this week

she might emerge less obnoxious

i love ongina and nina flowers too. they have real individualistic style

[dsc]

10. I didn't see that coming

I just finished watching it as I have to wait a day.

[racaulk]

11. Oh, that broke my heart!

Yes, I wanted to reach out and give Ongina a big hug. I think that was a very genuine moment that took a lot of courage on her part to make that admission on national television. I look forward to seeing more of Ongina's modeling for Viva Glam in the future. :)

I am loving this show! My favorites are Bebe, Ongina, and Nina (who I personally think is very sexy), and I am predicting that these will make it to the final three.

Elimination spoiler below, highlight the blank space below if you want to continue reading...

In my opinion, Jade was robbed and Rebecca deserved to go. First off, her makeup looked like SHIT during the shoot, and she walked off the stage?!?!?! I was also very annoyed with how dramatic she was about her HIV+ friend. I understand very personally what it is like to have those you love that are living with HIV and AIDS, but I think Rebecca was just playing up the drama of that situation to meet her own ends. And I found that very, very annoying. And while I think Rebecca's outfit worked well with the Annie Lennox song, I think the "lip sync off" was basically a draw.

I think Jade and Rebecca were probably the next two to be removed from the competition anyway, but I think Jade deserved to be in the final five more than Rebecca does. Just MHO...

[La Lioness Priyanka]

12. i love nina, ongina and channel. i mean i love and hate channel.

i think bebe is boring.

[FreeState]

15. I did not think I would like this show - Im not a big Rupaul fan -

That being said its now one of my new favorites... what a great show. Its like Project Runway meets America's Next Top Model - only very queer:)


I can't wait for the next episode tonight!
