Ru Paul’s Drag Race (v2)

[SidewaysOtter]

This is not a place to debate the rights and wrongs of drag, comments on this subject will be reported for deletion. The Feminism forum (where you will often find me, feminists can like drag too) is that way ->

Week 2 thoughts? I thought the right person went but I thought the bottom two should have been the other bottom Queen.

The right team won too!

Brilliant 🤩 didn’t all the queens look gorgeous.

I can't begin to tell you how kind Danny is to ds2... When he did Canterbury Pride last year he had ds2 backstage with him and then had him on stage with him. They always have Selfies and I always get to have a video call... It really couldn't have happened to a nicer person...

Peppa looked beautiful tonight and JB performed brilliantly but it was always going to be down to CG and DB.

Danny definitely won the lip sync but I still thought CG was going to win the crown.

Really enjoyed the final. Thought it was a two-horse race, but Peppa and Jonbers slayed the main challenge. With four badges a piece though, it was always going to be a Cheddar vs Danny lip sync and Danny smashed it. Within seconds, he owned that song. I also think it helped that he wanted it so badly and drag is his life. Am not sure RuPaul has ever gone for a queen who has fallen back in love with it iyswim.
Lovely pic elderflower - chuffed to bits for Wilf. Was another reason to root for Danny. He sounds fabulous x

There could only ever be those 2 in the final.

I think maybe Cheddar wanted second place. There is no question they are insanely talented, but listening to what they said to Ru and Michelle, I think they were happy to fall back in love with drag and not have the Drag Race schedule that Danny now has.

Danny was hungry for the crown and I think will enjoy the schedule and the showing the world what someone who doesn’t conform to “norms” can achieve.

I agree re Krystal Versace. And has she done much since? The others have been all over Twitter but have seen nothing of her. Maybe she's an Insta/Tik Tok girl (I'm not!).

Really happy for Danny but I wanted Cheddar to win as I thought she was in a different league.

I've just watched the finale. No shocks for the top 2. Even as they were doing the final lip sync I couldn't have called it.

Lovely interview with Danny here.. Lovely interview with Danny here...

Awww, that really is a lovely interview with Danny. Love them saying they would have been just as happy to share with Cheddar.

is anyone watching Canada versus the world now?

I started watching Canada against the world but Ru isn't on it so lost interest!

Have started watching it as Victoria Scone is on it and I wanted to see how well she does, but I am not a huge fan of Brooke Lynn Hytes. I still think it strange Ru decided to present the Down Under version, rather than let Courtney Act host it. No love lost then.
I was not keen on Vanity Case and don't know the other queens, so CvsROW won't do it for me really and Snatch Summit I didn't know who some were.
In the same way I did enjoy Shangela on DWTS I am very much here for The Vivienne appearing on Dancing on Ice in January!

I loved Victoria Scone calling out Stephanie Price on the "Fishy" comment on CvsTW.

I totally agree @Zampa.

I was very pleased to see Victoria Scone, but I also totally adore Icesis Couture. On their season when they were doing the makeup challenge, on that young person who was talking about feeling so alone, that they were now part of the Couture family and they would never be alone again …
