00:00Okay, drag is so sensitive in the Philippines.
00:03It's not sensitive, you're just, you're insensitive.
00:06Welcome to Ms. Mojo.
00:08And today, we're counting down our picks for the most unforgettable moments
00:11from the first three seasons of Drag Race Philippines and Slaizhan Royale.
00:15I just want to see all of you that you just want to see until you're just shy.
00:21It's a little bit.
00:22Number 10, Siam Pusi's Meltdown.
00:25Throughout the first half of Slaizhan Royale,
00:27Siam Pusi was mostly safe in the challenges.
00:30So, heading into the Snatch election episode,
00:32the Drag Race Thailand queen announced that she was ready to shake things up
00:35and finally let loose.
00:36And I feel like last week, I kind of like clear all the energy out
00:40and ready for new Siam arrive again.
00:43But she then launched into a fiery, impassioned speech about believing in her work,
00:48even leaping onto the table and yelling at the cameras.
00:51Because I'm willing to do anything because I want to be the girl.
00:54Did you see you, pussy?
00:56I'm ready to win!
01:00That is me!
01:01At first, everyone thought she was joking.
01:03But the longer the tirade went on, it began to feel like a genuine meltdown.
01:08Some of the other queens even got spooked.
01:10Especially Vinyas Deluxe, who, because of her past experiences,
01:14believed Siam was invoking dark energy.
01:15So, hindi ko alam kung ginagawa to ni Siam,
01:18pero nakita ko yung mga hand gestures niya, yung mga moves niya,
01:22na ginagawa din nung friend ko dati.
01:23Is it also triggering you, your experiences?
01:27However, it's possible Siam simply cracked under the immense pressure of the competition.
01:31I'm safe, I'm safe, and you, please love me.
01:38Stop chanting.
01:39Number 9.
01:40Moments of Trans Excellence
01:41Of the 12 queens selected for the second season of Drag Race Philippines,
01:46three, Miss Jade So, Bernie, and eventual winner Captivating Cat Cat, were trans women.
01:51During the Untucked episode following the Rusical,
01:54Miss Jade So spoke candidly about her trans non-binary identity,
01:57educating both her fellow queens and the viewers about the spectrum of identities
02:01within the LGBTQIA plus community.
02:04I'm a trans woman, yes.
02:06That's my gender identity.
02:09And sometimes, in my own world or whenever,
02:14I feel like an alien or whatever.
02:18I'm trans non-binary.
02:19Meanwhile, Captivating Cat Cat and Bernie,
02:22who had both dominated the season with two Maxi Challenge wins each,
02:25landed in the bottom for the first time in the eighth episode.
02:29Their lip-sync to The Power by Anne Reyniel was truly electrifying,
02:33packed with jaw-dropping reveals that celebrated their trans identity.
02:46Ultimately, both were told to Shantae,
02:48and there wasn't a dry eye in the room.
02:50I love Drag Race Philippines.
02:56Number 8.
02:57Versex and Kiana's Feud
02:58On Drag Race Philippines,
03:00there's often a divide between queens from Manila and those from the provinces.
03:04This was especially clear in Season 3 between Kiana,
03:07a provincial queen, and Versex who hails from Manila.
03:10I just feel like you're doing the most.
03:13Parang ikaw yung anti-thesis ko.
03:16You know what I mean?
03:16Parang, bakla namin kinagawa ni ba?
03:18Parang bakla maupo?
03:19Kiana broke down in the workroom after Versex and J. Quinn admitted they weren't connecting to her
03:28and felt she was, quote,
03:29doing the most.
03:30Later, on the main stage,
03:32Kiana told the judges she believed the Manila queens were simply insecure
03:35because they saw her as strong competition.
03:37Most of the queens said that I was doing the most.
03:42As me, as Kiana,
03:43kung sino ako, ganun talaga ako eh.
03:44These comments eventually reached Versex,
03:47who confronted Kiana during Untucked,
03:49revealing that being called insecure triggered painful memories from her past.
04:03Hoping to quell the tensions,
04:06Kiana later approached Versex and J. Quinn,
04:08and they managed to patch things up.
04:10Number 7.
04:11Dee Dee Marie Holiday Breaks Hannah Bessie's Trust
04:14The Season 2 episode,
04:15Drama Rama Mama,
04:16truly lived up to its name.
04:18During the Puppets mini-challenge,
04:20Dee Dee Marie Holiday crossed a line
04:22by revealing some personal information
04:23that Hannah Bessie had shared with her in confidence.
04:25Almost immediately,
04:38the guilt of breaking this trust began to weigh on Dee Dee,
04:40and it seemed to affect her during the challenge.
04:43This was brought up by Mama Pao on the main stage,
04:46prompting Dee Dee to admit to her mistake and apologize to Hannah.
04:48Since yesterday,
04:49I've been being eaten by guilt.
04:53Because in the mini-challenge,
04:55I have said things that I was not supposed to.
04:58It's about Hannah and her personal life with her partner.
05:02I really regret it, Hannah.
05:03I'm really sorry.
05:04It all culminated in a deeply emotional segment during Untucked,
05:08where Hannah broke down,
05:09expressing her hurt and frustration with Dee Dee.
05:12It's not exactly clear whether this debacle
05:14affected Dee Dee's overall performance,
05:15but she sashayed away at the end of the episode.
05:18And if I am wrong with anyone,
05:21I'm sorry.
05:22Thank you so much.
05:25We love you, Dee Dee.
05:29For the first six episodes of season one,
05:32Eva Laqueen was safe.
05:34So, when she was asked to stay back for critiques in episode seven,
05:37she was eager to finally hear feedback from the judges,
05:40especially Raho Laurel.
05:48However, the critiques she received were nothing like what she expected.
05:56Laurel tore apart the dress she made in the workroom,
05:59calling it not just a, quote,
06:01mortal sin,
06:02but also a, quote,
06:03atrocity.
06:04And worst of all,
06:05quote,
06:05trash.
06:06And I'm being fierce because I know you can do better.
06:09And I'm being hard because I have seen what you can do.
06:13And this is trash.
06:16Oh, no.
06:17His remarks were especially harsh,
06:19given that viewers had seen far worse looks on the Drag Race runway.
06:23Unfortunately,
06:23the Madikina queen took the comments to heart
06:25and had an emotional breakdown during Untucked.
06:28The infamous comment would later resurface in season two,
06:39referenced by guest judge Tessa Prieto.
06:41Can I say it?
06:42This is trash.
06:49I don't want to give her any energy.
06:52Number five.
06:52Maxie's relationship with her father.
06:54For you to have the support system,
06:56like a father to protect,
07:00because that's a father's job,
07:03is to protect your children,
07:05make them feel safe.
07:06Maxie's path to the crown in season three
07:08was certainly paved with the unwavering love
07:10and support of her family.
07:12This became especially clear during the makeover episode,
07:15where she was tasked with transforming her father
07:17into a member of her drag family.
07:19In a heartfelt conversation with judge Khalid Karan,
07:22Maxie revealed how supportive he had been,
07:24not just toward her,
07:25but also toward her sister
07:26and fellow contestant Angel.
07:28The moment proved just how much of a difference
07:42parental love and acceptance can make
07:44in allowing LGBTQIA plus individuals to thrive.
07:47That special bond between Maxie and her father
07:49shone through on the runway
07:51as they dazzled in matching intergalactic-themed outfits.
07:54We are the protectors of the galaxy.
07:56Gravity, light, and space.
07:58That's the job.
08:00This piece is mathematically,
08:02geographically, astronomically,
08:05black.
08:06In the end,
08:07Maxie won the challenge.
08:09Number four.
08:10Minty Fresh vs. Brigadine Fiasco.
08:12On Drag Race,
08:13outside drama often spills over into the show.
08:16And that was exactly what happened
08:17between Minty Fresh and Brigadine.
08:19Apparently,
08:20Minty Fresh and Marina Summers
08:21had a lingering issue
08:22stemming from a local bar competition
08:24they both contested in.
08:25The incident later became a talking point
08:36at a show hosted by Brigadine.
08:38To Minty Fresh,
08:40bringing up something so personal
08:41felt insensitive.
08:42And she confronted Brigadine about it
08:44during the second episode of Untucked.
08:46Although she apologized,
08:59Brigadine insisted
08:59Minty Fresh was overreacting.
09:02Feeling dismissed by Brigadine,
09:03Minty Fresh told her off
09:04with a now iconic remark.
09:06The exchange was an early sign
09:16that the Drag Race Philippines queens
09:17were ready to deliver
09:19plenty of drama.
09:21Number three.
09:21Miss Jade So's emotional prom story.
09:24After consistently delivering
09:25strong performances
09:26throughout the season,
09:27Miss Jade So finally clinched a win
09:29in the penultimate episode.
09:30Can you repeat that again?
09:32You're the winner of this week's stage.
09:36I finally got a win.
09:40You've won a cast, yeah?
09:42Before that,
09:43she walked the runway
09:43in her doble cara extravaganza look,
09:46a combination of a suit
09:47and a white dress.
09:48Jade explained that the outfit
09:49was inspired by her experience
09:51as a trans girl in high school
09:52when she was turned away
09:54from her prom for wearing a dress.
10:06But they didn't let me in.
10:08Nevertheless,
10:09she stood outside the venue
10:10until the event ended
10:11and was joined by
10:12a supportive teacher
10:13who stood with her in protest.
10:15By revisiting that memory
10:16on the runway,
10:17Jade transformed
10:18one of her most painful experiences
10:20into an act of self-expression
10:21and empowerment.
10:22I didn't win as prom queen.
10:24I knew where my body was.
10:26This is my redeeming moment.
10:29This is my glow up.
10:30As always,
10:31Mama Pao found a way
10:32to lighten the mood afterwards.
10:34Thank you,
10:35Miss Jade.
10:36So,
10:36pwede bang,
10:37can you repeat it from the top?
10:41Oya, Pao, na pali.
10:42Ay, okay na pala.
10:44Number two,
10:45Snatch Game.
10:46Jokes can easily get lost
10:47in translation.
10:48But even for non-Filipino viewers,
10:50this was one of the best
10:52Snatch Game episodes
10:52of the entire Drag Race franchise.
10:54Nearly all of the queens
11:08brought their A-game.
11:09From John Fedeliaga's take
11:10on Angel Loxen
11:11to Kiana's Baron Geisler
11:13and Tita Baby's Grim Reaper,
11:14the queens excelled
11:15at volleying with each other,
11:17firing off quick comebacks
11:18and leaving the judges in stitches.
11:20But the undeniable standout
11:31was Angel,
11:32who portrayed Maria Clara
11:34as a devout woman
11:34suddenly embracing
11:35her wild side.
11:50The challenge culminated
11:53in a pretty raucous moment
11:54when the celebrity contestant,
11:56singer Kyle Echari,
11:57bared his chest
11:58and sent all the queens
11:59into a hilarious frenzy.
12:11This was pandemonium
12:12in the best way possible.
12:14Before we unveil our top pick,
12:16here are some honorable mentions.
12:18Mama Pau searches
12:19for Corazon's flowers.
12:21Mama Pau's reaction
12:22to Corazon's scant look
12:23instantly became a meme.
12:25Where's the flowers?
12:27Oh.
12:32Okay.
12:34Vinyas Deluxe's
12:35shake, rattle, and rampa look.
12:36Vinyas delivered her spooky
12:38manananggal look
12:39in the campiest way possible.
12:40Baha natin yung pakpak.
12:42Nasan yung pakpak, mga misis?
12:44Ayan.
12:45Sa likod lang siya.
12:46Cute lang.
12:46Kasi saan ka mapapating
12:48Matilda shares her truth.
12:50Matilda came out
12:51to her parents on the show
12:52after being robbed
12:53of that opportunity.
12:54Hi, mama.
12:58I'm gay and I do drag.
13:01Sana brought my dreams
13:03of it.
13:05And I hope
13:06you still love me the same.
13:08Angel is told to shantay.
13:10After sharing an emotional
13:11moment with Maxie,
13:12Angel is given
13:13a second chance.
13:14Yes, I felt
13:15that we felt
13:16your fascia
13:17and your dry.
13:18Oh my god.
13:19And we need more.
13:21Brigadine and
13:21Vinyas Deluxe lip sync.
13:23Confetti,
13:24a hair dryer,
13:25and some Matrix moves?
13:26This was one
13:27for the books.

13:51We've seen countless
14:09girl group performances
14:10on Drag Race,
14:11but few have matched
14:12what the Flexbomb girls
14:13did on Pop-Off Ate.
14:15Featuring Brigadine,
14:16Ava Laqueen,
14:16Lady Morgana,
14:17Marina Summers,
14:18and Turing,
14:19this group delivered
14:19as close to a flawless
14:21performance

14:22I'm the new kid
14:23in the city
14:24and I'm every young
14:25but when you see me
14:25prove that I can conquer
14:27Asia's just a number
14:28Oh my god,
14:29it's a marina
14:30I'm the Filipino winner
14:31Their verses were sharp,
14:33witty,
14:34and perfectly tailored
14:34to each queen's personality,
14:36while the precise choreography
14:38gave every member
14:39a chance to shine.
14:40Turing set the tone
14:41with an explosive opening,
14:43and the energy
14:43never faltered
14:44until the final note.
14:45Although the second group
14:58had a strong showing,
14:59they were simply no match
15:00for the Flexbomb girls'
15:01cohesion and star power.
15:03To top it off,
15:04viewers were treated
15:05to a first-of-its-kind
15:06dance showdown
15:07between both groups.
15:08Talk about iconic.
