Bitches, I'm baaaaack!
(I know, I can see you all cringing too).
Firstly, welcome back to the next ten - it took me way longer than I thought and I wrote far too much about queen so please, if someone wants to edit my bullshit HOLLAH!
![]() |
Would it be rude to ask PhiPhi for editing help? |
Secondly - thank you, I'm a little overwhelmed at the response to round one of this rankdown! Comments, messages, kind queens, shady ladies, the odd bitch and 7000 views and counting - so thank you very much.
Thirdly - Please, by all means disagree with me, come for me, cut my wigs up! Do your own rankdown, argue with me, back up your points but just remember, when you choose to insult me/my writing/what I'm doing - you're doing exactly the thing that you are critiquing me for. I don't mind, any response is a good response but do be shady, just try and be a lady about it!
If, after all that - you still feel the need to tell me how pointless this is and how I need a life, make like this gem of a song and Look Away. Go outside and leave me in my basement - doing my thing and whether or not you say your piece, both of us are going to continue to exist, living our lives and being who we are with absolutely no changes - you are as pointless to me as I am pointless to you - there, kapiche, okay.com - yes I've got my own domain!
Lastly, I am attempting shade yes - I am not doing this based on who are the queens are as people, I am subjectively ranking heavily edited, reality television personalities that are in and of themselves, made-up, often comedic identities formed by someone who underneath it, may not be anything like their drag identity - it's all subjective and I believe if you enter a reality competition, you open yourself up to these posts. It's all me and my opinion, it's nothing but a bit of pointless fun to keep us amused! (I live in New Zealand! I've only ever met Bianca - I only know what Logo chooses to show - as do the majority of us!)
Here's your next ten! I'll probably pause now as on-season is about to start and keep it up in the offseason, if y'all are keen to read more!

90: Sasha Belle
The Lobster Queen
![]() |
See how long it takes you to look away from this |
Miss Sasha Belle kicks off our next round of queens and
chances are, I misunderstood the assignment and placed her in the wrong place
(hint, she was originally 92), but hey, after thinking about it – Sasha is
iconic in her own way and deserves this place amongst the second group of
queens.
![]() |
She's thanking me |
If round one swerved between queens who had no
self-awareness to those that didn’t try or were simply forgettable, round 2
brings us the train wrecks, disasters and hilariously iconic queens for all the
wrong reasons. In my humble playbook, a stunning lack of self-awareness (Vivi,
Serena) or competency, that is washed over by a lack of memorability or
attempts to try in the competition (Dax, India, Phoenix, Alisa) will
consistently be trumped by train wrecks because that’s what I pay the good
dollars to my internet company to illegally stream and watch. So while you may
argue that India or Dax are better at the art of drag than Sasha, (and I would
agree with you) I’d much rather watch Sasha lip-sync with her tits falling out
of her dress or misunderstanding the assignment over Dax any day.
![]() |
Reach for the stars because... |
Sasha entered season 7 with possibly the most uncomfortable
entrance ever, with an homage to Wynona Judd – she stomped aggressively in going ‘Say hello to my little
FRRIEEENDDDSSS’ and then threw the two guns on the table and walked just a little bit more to pose awkwardly - this will never get old. (Honestly, rewatch the way
she throws her guns onto the table – it’s very, that) and the
editors gave us a subtle clue that she wasn’t going to be around for long with
Kennedy’s confessional ‘Girl, sorry. No. Naixt’. She performed badly in
the nude illusion and to this day, I will attest that she should have lip-synced
episode 1 – over Kandy (yes, I went there) but against Tempest. She did not lip-sync however, and managed to
somehow slide through wearing a black bra for a nude illusion challenge (I can
just imagine the steam coming from Michelle’s ears) only to perform dismally in
episode 2 (whether that was because of the part or not, I don’t know but she
should have left her hair alone) and had the bad luck of going against Katya in
a lip-sync for the ages and by the end of it even her tit had given up on her and was
attempting to run away from her body. While in the competition, she wore a
lobster dress, started a fight with Pearl by saying she should be in the bottom
(she sees you Reddit, don’t worry) and unfortunately decided she was a Miss
Marple level code-cracker who had figured it all out, not something you should
be saying episode 1 and leaving episode 2, Miss Nancy Drew.
![]() |
I still don't get it |
Hear me out, I do think Sasha is one of the queens from
Season 7 who I genuinely don’t need to see again – she didn’t overly impress
me, I found her drag tired and her voice always seemed ‘whiney’ to me, but what
Sasha did do and what helped her escape the bottom 10, is that she ran with the
opportunity Drag Race gave her. Her drunk makeovers, her little mini drag race
contest, her family of Belle’s and her premiere outfit series (Kim K still
kills me) showed a queen who was aware of the platform she had been given and
despite her run on the show, made the most of it and came out smelling of,
well, not roses, but something decent. She worked for it, worked hard and
despite either lip-syncing or being in the bottom of all three episodes she was
in, she ran away with a quote or three, a meme, a lobster dress, a
qualification in codes all while looking like Jolly the Green Giant – quite an
impressive career for John Goodman herself! Add to that her sudden post-show,
masc 4 masc Instagram posts and you’ve got a package for the ages.
![]() |
Girl knows her audience. |
Iconic Moment: 'I misunderstood the assignment' with that one quote Sasha immortalised herself as a meme queen for the ages.
![]() |
I still love this one though - John Goodman! |
My Favourite Moment: Well, I love her lip-sync with Ginger – she saved Ginger’s
ass in that lip-sync in my opinion but the throwing of the fan on the first
runway on season 7 will always be a standout moment for her as will her attempt at Kim K
on the red carpet for Season 7's premiere. Bless her heart.
Quote: ‘I wore a lobster dress’, Sasha Belle sums up her
time on Season 7 in 5 beautiful words.
89: Kelly
The Bacon Queen
WoOOoooO! Oh Kelly, another disappointment I’m afraid. I entered season 6 as a reddit newbie (I know!) and had only seen the rumours and predictions that A) Bianca broke her leg, B) Gia died and C) Kelly, Courtney and LaGanja were the top 3. Now, I love a good comedy queen – especially one that can act and I did my research and I wasn’t bowled over by Kelly, I thought everything she did, Dela/Darienne/Bianca did better and funnier (yes, I know they’re not the same) but I trusted and believed and was like, alright, let’s see what you’ve got. However, one thing led to another and we all know how it ended. Sizzle, fry, splat.
![]() |
Ohh girl. |
Kelly entered the competition with a ‘Woo, are you girls ready to rock and roll?’ in a rather unfortunate choice of outfit and nothing ever seemed to click with her. I still can’t tell if her entrance look and line is meant to be funny or not – but I live for it in an ironic way (and Gia’s reaction is the cherry on the top). She did terribly with her Downton Abbey box and only became iconic for her bacon dress. After a rather lacklustre performance to ‘Express Yourself’ against a tub-thumping great grandmother of dragons, she packed her bags and went home – thus instilling in me a hearty distrust about what I read on the internet! I must admit also, as a huge Downton Abbey fan I was severely, dowager level unimpressed with what she came up with – I suspect she’s watched as much Downton Abbey as Magnolia’s watched Drag Race and I was just really underwhelmed with what she brought to the competition for her one episode – even her lip-sync disappointed, our predicted top 3 was not to be and Kelly’s probably never eaten bacon again.
![]() |
Iconic - yet, was she in on the joke? |
But – after all that, much like Miss India Ferrah, I don’t think Kelly Mantle is a bad drag queen. I think she’s a fierce queen who just didn’t translate to the competition and her post-show career has been really interesting to watch and really, she ends up here on the list for being the first gender fluid person to be considered for both best supporting actor and best supporting actress at the Academy Awards! No, she was never going to be nominated, but what a cool thing to actually be possible. So yes, she's a professional queen who has achieved quite a lot since season 6 - and LOGO and WOW love her don't they? I do think that yes, she was screwed over by the split premiere but given her disappointing performance, it's hard to imagine where she would have fit in amongst the standout stars of season 6 and for such a hyped queen, it seems oddly fitting that she was the first to leave and she did, to her credit, laugh at herself and show what a graceful queen she is.
Iconic Moment: The Bacon Dress. Girl, what was she thinking? I expected so much more! (and I only hate her a little for doing Downton Abbey wrong like that).
My Favourite Moment:
Exhibit A:

NYC Premiere - I began to suspect she was not top 3 bound |
Exhibit B:

Imagine if she was actually an Oscar nominee with this on her resume - Meryl could never. |

The Meth Addict
![]() |
Don't lie - this is how you remember her |
Ahh, the Princess. The Princess was a fierce, fierce look queen who had the misfortune of being cast on the charisma fest that was season 4. Unfortunately everything that the Princess was, Sharon Needles did better – yes that may be harsh, but where is the lie?
The Princess entered Season 4 as an edgy, punk queen who stood out for her fierce bald promo picture but otherwise blended in and didn’t exactly stand out in the crowd. She did WOW in the post apocaloca challenge with her ‘Waterworld’ themed look – literally, the only one to do something different with the theme may have made her stand out more than the others, but regardless, it was a fierce look that could have won if Sharon wasn’t being iconic and putting Drag Race on the map! She had an awkward flirtation with Sharon in Episode 2 – honestly, I felt very sorry for everyone involved in that scene – bored everyone in WTF with a lacklustre performance and eked out a win over LaShawn Beyond in a rather underwhelming Donna Summer lip-sync. If Lashawn had kept her shoes on, I suspect she would have made it through to another week over the Princess and her dollar store punk look for a ‘girly-girl’ runway, I know, it was a cute look but it really wasn’t anything that Avril Lavigne wasn’t doing aged 7. Eventually, she underwhelmed in the Glamazon/Champions challenge with a lack of charisma and an inability to learn the lines (see Monica) and as we all unfortunately know, was murdered by high drag lip-sync royalty Dida Ritz on the main stage – becoming the first queen to be carted away in a body bag.![]() |
She went to the PhiPhi school for self-esteem |
![]() |
Yes girl, I went there |
Iconic Moment: Unfortunately that lip-sync – for all the wrong reasons.
My Favourite Moment: That Waterworld fantasy – so, so cool and a promise of more that was never delivered on.
![]() |
Promised me so much! |
Quote: ‘You are exactly the type of guy I go for – that whole meth look’ – in that moment, we all needed an adult and rehab.
87: Honey Mahogany
The Kaftan
Why is Honey higher than Vivienne? I hear y’all firstly; I
am not nice to Miss Vivienne. I do not know her personally and am basing
everything off a highly edited reality show, social media presence and an
awfully run wig company/business and totally own that and accept your criticism
(but write something yourself then tell me off for being shady okurr?) Honey
seemed nicer, funnier, sweeter and a little bit fiercer.
She swished into season 5 and didn’t overly impress in
anything really, I do feel that she gave more to the competition than Vivi did
and certainly was more amusing in Draggle Rock (the entire puppetry scene is
pure art really) and the Lip-sync Challenge – in fact, she did rather well as
Mystique in the lip-sync challenge which is ironic given what we know now.
Unfortunately, a lack of an ability to stand out in a competition of hungry
piranhas, a penchant for being sweet rather than anything else and a disturbing
collection of bed sheets/kaftans combined with an alarming runway walk and an
inability to go big in her performances led to her bottom 2 appearance after
the ballet performance against Miss Vivi. She wasn’t awful on her season and if
she really had pulled out the stops in the lip sync, I think Ru would have
deigned to let her stay one more episode as Miss Vivi was on borrowed time
already.
![]() |
YES, I went there |
However, with her kaftan realness, sweet nature and an
argument that ‘in San Francisco, the look doesn’t matter’ for her defense of
her drag (not that she should be defending her drag but that’s a whole
different argument), she wasn’t giving me the ‘piss and vinegar’, I like from
my queens. She was giving me water crackers with cheddar cheese when I want the
strongest blue on the shelf. On rye bread. However, she was sweet, can sing,
knew when to laugh at herself and if you look at her exit speech when put next
to Miss Vivienne’s, you get why she’s higher and forever more fondly remembered
than her exit partner.
Iconic Moment: The double elimination unfortunately for
her. Was it deserved? Yes. And it saved us from Honey and Vivi in snatch game,
let’s be real – S5 Snatch Game was awful enough without their ‘acting’ adding
to it.
My favourite moment: I am partial to her fondness for
kaftans and her literal stomp down the runway – episode 3’s stomp is a thing of
beauty.
86: Victoria 'Porkchop' Parker
Now, I heard y’all asking where Porkchop was on the first
list of ten – I did. However, Porkchop is iconic, memorable, delightful and
everything I grew up knowing drag as. Despite my writing style, my immaturity
and my love for petty shade throwing on Microsoft 95 quality blogs, I am rather
old and I know my herstory. These days, the online communities of Facebook and
Instagram seem to think the skinnier and fishier the twink, the better the drag
queen. However, I grew up with Divine, Dame Edna and yes, Rupaul and when I first
started going into bars, the only queens around were the overweight queens who
were builders during the day and painted for the cheque shop down the street at
night.
Victoria ‘Porkchop’ Parker was on the first season of Drag
Race, the land before time, and was the first ever queen to sashay away. This
gives her a special status above all other first-out queens and has earned her
the honour of being acknowledged by Rupaul (the only queen’s name he remembers
without fail) at every reunion. Aside from this, what else is she remembered
for? Not much to be perfectly honest – but I think that’s legacy enough don’t
you? As a queen, she was a polished old showgirl that had perhaps settled into
her drag too much to adapt and show that she had CUNT for this show. I think
she had the T & the C down pat and probably deserved to outlast Rebecca and
Akashia on the show, but I think in season one, she didn’t bring enough U and N
to stand out from the competition and was trounced in a lip-sync by Akashia and
sent home rather promptly and swiftly for a queen who brought such a wealth of
experience to the show. However, she did not know how to sew (at this point, it’s
basically a death sentence but given it was the first season, I’ll let it
slide) and her final outfit was the first she’d made in her life – and it
looked like a football field to boot! Combine this with the stumble on the
runway and you have the exit/birth of a Porkchop legend. She kick-started a
long legacy of older, campy queens going home first or second and I was
genuinely sorry to her see go, not because we missed out on fierce drag and
gag-worthy moments but because she seemed like a fun, working gal who
represented where drag came from and was there for a good time, to show off her
craft and have fun (cough Rebecca cough).
![]() |
See? She agrees with me. |
Iconic Moment: ‘Hey Porkchop’ – she rolls with the joke and
brings it to you every ball!
![]() |
Sure, Jan. |
My Favourite Moment: I love Porkchop at the VMAs – totally
feeling her fantasy at age 83 and I adore her sweet personality and everyone
should watch the documentary ‘Pageant’ and see what a genuine, talented queen
she is but her favourite moment for me will always be her explanation of her thought
process around the difference between drag ‘dressed as girl’ in the bar to have
a good time, and ‘female impersonation’ where men make a career of
impersonating women. It was so clear and well explained and I don’t know – I
just love her? Maybe I should put her above Rebecca for genuine sweetness…
![]() |
She's a Lady |
Quote: ‘I can do things as Victoria that I would never get
away with as Victor’ – so, so true for most Drag Queens.
‘That’s how I feel’ – shouting at the reunion after the epic
you’re a star meltdown with all the miss entitled things. She gets it, she is
experienced, she knows life and she’s grateful for the opportunity – Ru sees
that and I believe that’s why he throws her a bone every reunion – for being
such a good example of a graceful, classy and timeless queen who is not
entitled and understands that you have to work for everything you have. Cough
Tammie, Cough Rebecca, Cough Shannel, Cough Jade, Cough Akashia.
85: Akashia
The Pregnant One
Well well well, here we are – Miss Akashia herself. If
Porkchop brought the class, elegance and old-school pageantry to season 1 then Miss
Akashia brought the train into station and crashed it all over the first three
episodes on season 1. Has there been a queen with a worse record in the
competition? Serena only lasted two episodes so I think Miss Akashia takes the
crown.
![]() |
But she is an icon |
![]() |
I mean look at HUH |
And yet, you can’t (unlike the next girl on this list) hate
her. She demonstrates a level of self-awareness that is beautiful to watch, she
knows exactly the kind of girl she is (MORE on that later), she knows her
strengths and she knows her weaknesses. She’s not afraid to throw shade, read a
bitch, walk down the runway showing her ass (that’s pure muscle) and she can
lip-sync the house down and for her three episodes, she gave us the most
excellent memes, quotes and a wonderful gif of her falling for the ages. While
her performance on the show was miserable, she is the first queen to give a
real lip-sync for your LIFE (honest t though, was it made more impressive by
Miss Tammie doing nothing alongside her?) and she gave us the $20 she charges
while on the show (and wasn’t it nice to see her on the AS2 Comedy show?) and I
hope she’s charging more these days and life is working out for her at
Starbucks or TV Guide or wherever she ended up!
Iconic Moment: That Lip-sync, she broke the ‘motherfucking’ dawn, y’all - and made Michelle Williams cry - whether Michelle was crying over the lip-sync or having PTSD over being the third member of Destiny’s Child, we’ll never know but for Akashia’s legacy - we’ll pretend it’s the lip-sync. Of course, these days there are so many iconic lip-syncs, but this was the OG of them all.
There are no words, simultaneously demonstrating her talents and her faults. Live on queen.
Quote: "If I was a girl, I'd be a stripper, or a slut pregnant
with a whole bunch of children.” - That’s the self-awareness I’m talking about.
"It looks like you’re ready to give a $20 hand
job" - From Santino to Akashia critiquing her dollar/thrift store outfit
from the 1st episode. Unlike Alyssa’s dress, Santino doesn’t lie this time.
84: Rebecca
Wendy Pepper/Satan/Maleficent/Villain/Mall Queen
![]() |
I couldn't resist. |
Alright, the first top 3 queen to fall on her sword is the
one and only Miss Rebecca. I know many of you probably think she’s too high but
let’s give her her due – she did make it to the top 3. That puts her in the
same class of queens such as Courtney, Roxxxy, Phi2, Jujubee, Pearl, Naomi and
Alexis Mateo. I know, I can hear you screaming from here BUT SHE DOESN’T
DESERVE TO BE, well no – she didn’t but Ru kept her there – against all odds
and it isn’t exactly her fault she ended up in the top 3 either. I feel if she
was sent home when she should have been, against Jade, and Jade had been sent
home the next week, Rebecca would be a memorable villain who made it as far as
she should have and season one would have had the strongest top 4 ever.
![]() |
But instead... |
However, fate did not work that way for Miss Glasscock and
she became the most infamous member of any top 3 in drag race history and
that’s not just because she entered the competition in jeans. Rebecca strikes
me as a genuinely deeply insecure person, her tendency to lash out at other
queens, tape her area of the table so no one else touches it and her reliance
on the beauty of her face tell me that she’s deeply insecure and unable to
relax, have fun and constantly was on edge throughout her 8 (8!) episode run on
drag race. For me, most successful drag
is being in on the joke and knowing when to relax and laugh at yourself –
Rebecca could not do that. Her one mode was compete and defend and because of
this, she found her way to the top 3 of Season 1 but also found herself with
virtually no fan base and barely a career after the show. Admittedly, you have
to grade the season one girls on a different scale as it was such a tiny,
unknown phenomenon at that point but even for them, Rebecca is virtually
non-existent these days (literally, I can only find her boy Instagram at that).
Rebecca’s idea of drag, unlike Porkchop, is one-dimensional,
shallow and basic. She has one mode – resting on pretty and used this to her
advantage in the competition, winning the makeover challenge (the horror!) and
winning two lip-syncs (again, she should not have beaten Jade and if Shannel
had tried – there was no question who would have gone onto the top 3). If I had
to compare her to another queen? Vivienne Pinay – they think being fishy and
pretty is all you need to do to be a drag queen and that pisses me off more
than anything.![]() |
No, I'm the staaaaar |
But you know what? She made top 3, I don’t think her
defensive attitude came from a place of bitterness, I just think it came from a
place of insecurity and a lack of understanding and I think if she had gone
home in 6th place, we wouldn’t be having these discussions – she
would have faded into the pantheon of RPDR history quite nicely, been
immortalised for wearing jeans as her entrance look and all would have been
right in this world.
Iconic Moment: Where to begin – the fact she wore jeans for two challenges?
Girl, Michelle would be in a body bag if she was the judge back then. But for
me, her iconic moment is her final runway dress – a travesty of a final runway
but the killer bit? SHE’D WORN IT ALREADY IN THE COMPETITION. Girl, no, you
don’t do that – season 1 is the shortest season, she had no excuse for wearing
that hideous dress again, jeans and t shirts DON’T take up THAT much room in
the suitcase so you could have packed another damned dress and maybe some proper
shoes, not those Velcro sandal everyone getting primary school flashback
nightmares! Forget CHU go HOME. GOODBYE.![]() |
No words needed |
My Favourite moment: That entrance look just cracks me up –
if she walked in in that look today, you know Ross would be fired out of a cannon
ball directed by Visage to blast her ass home to get changed. But really, let’s
not forget, she could NOT walk in heels. I mean, were I to do drag, I would get
out of my mother’s basement, go to her wardrobe and practice walking in stilettos
until my toes bled. I just find it fascinating that her idea of drag was
looking as fishy as possible, yet she couldn’t walk in heels – one of the
defining ‘womanly’ features her limited brain should be aspiring to. Girl. No.
Quote: ‘I’ve learned to embrace my bitchiness’ – if only you’d
owned it and turned it into a successful career.
83: Tempest
Baby Mama
![]() |
Real talk though: This outfit was fierce. |
Oh sweet Tempest – the beauty about doing your own rankdown
(and the controversy), is that your own tastes come through. As you can see, I
have a soft spot for older, campy, kitschy queens who go home too soon –
Tempest is another one in a long line of older queens to go home first and yet,
I can’t help finding her expired brand more appealing than that of Sasha, who
outlasted her.
Tempest entered the competition by virtue of being the
oldest woman in the world to give birth or something like that right? Just
jokes, she entered the competition as the oldest contestant ever and promptly
gave birth to Amber Alerts on walking in to the workroom. I’m still on the
fence about whether this was a classic comedy moment or utterly cringe worthy
but either way, it became iconic. She was then asked how old she was by
someone, I can’t remember who (and no, don’t worry, the Kandy Who jokes never
get old), which led into an episode long feud that ended up with Tempest and
Kandy lip-syncing where Kandy demonstrated her one talent. Beating up old
ladies. Tempest unfortunately sashayed away at the end of that episode, and on
her return to the competition in the makeover episode, ended up lip-syncing
again – is Tempest the only queen to appear in two episodes, lip-sync and be
sent home both times? Absolutely. Congratulations my dear, you are the biggest
loser.
![]() |
I feel like Kandy in this moment |
But literally, she was the biggest loser. I think the reason
I do adore Tempest so, is her inspiring underdog story where she went from
being morbidly obese to putting down the bucket of chicken for her family. She
lost a shit tonne of weight, had to put her life back together after a hideous
car accident and just seems to be such a ‘mom’ figure – simple, likeable and
loveable and I can’t help but love her sweet nature and fresh attitude that she
brought to the competition and I DO think season 7’s acting challenges were
weaker without her.

My Favourite Moment: I love her with Trixie in this WOW video – giving me all the cougar aunt I need but I can’t go past her wearing crabs on her nude illusion – she knew she didn’t have much to sell so she dressed it up with humour and I can’t help loving a crude, old innuendo – but much like the bread, where the hell did the crabs come from?

82: Monica Beverly Hillz
The Only Girl in the World
![]() |
Serena finally learns her place |
Now, I have huge admiration for Monica as a Trans woman and an activist off the show, but girl, really queen? Has there ever been a queen less enthused to be a part of the show? I'm sorry but no - she was not ready, she wasn't in the headspace to deal with being on the show, her emotional state wasn't ready and while I 100% firmly believe in the importance of her story and having transwomen on the show, I can't help comparing her to the first 20 minutes of season 9 and the comfort of Miss Peppermint both in herself and with the competition (totally unfair, I know) and ask why?
I get what the producers wanted to do and her story is a super heartfelt part of the season, but I just can't help looking at her levels of enthusiasm, emotion and not feel like A) Girl, why didn't you wait? So much potential? And B) The producers totally had to know she wasn't ready for this - and not in a Serena ChaCha, she will never be ready and will always be a messy slut way, but in an emotionally prepared, up for the level of the competition way. I can't help feeling they exploited a queen for television, which of course is what we all love, but looking at the confidence and power of Miss Peppermint, I wish they'd left her alone for a few years and brought her in when she was ready.
![]() |
If only she kept this level of energy |
![]() |
Tears in my eyes |
My Favourite moment: I think her lip-sync to 'Only Girl' is underrated and fierce for the ages, but I can't go past her 'Draggle Rock' performance for sheer camp value. The shades, the book with the lines, the level of unprofessionalism, her inability to even give the most basic of performances all make for a camp classic that I can't help but clap and laugh every time I see it. (Which is often).
Quote: Say it with me now ‘Don’t be shady, be a lady’.
‘Drag is what I do, Trans is who I am’ – silences anyone who questions what right a transwoman has to be on the show. Someone does drag, someone is Trans. If only Tumblr kids could get this into their thick skulls.
81: Naysha
The beauty is here! I won’t lie – I debated long and hard
about who was going to be 81 – (SPOILER – I was torn between Vivacious, Laila,
Kenya, LaShawn and Naysha over who was going to end up here and unfortunately,
once again – I chose the beautiful, fierce, but less memorable option.![]() |
