21:45got a
21:45pretty good eye for size if you know what I mean how do you guys feel about us as a
21:52group and do you
21:54think that we're a strong group and do you think that we'll be a stronger group than the other people
21:57coming in it's a little early to tell right I mean you got me that part clearly this is a
22:03split
22:03premiere I'm not super worried about another batch of queens though they are going to have a tough time
22:08standing up to group one I feel like what intimidates people it's like an energy thing and I didn't get
22:15like a negative energy from anybody I don't know when I walked in I did get a little bit of
22:19a vibe from
22:20Irene but what kind of vibe it was it was it was a little hot just a little catty concy
22:24but like I will say
22:26I will say I wish that you guys were throwing it back I think other people see me as a
22:32bitch but I'm
22:33always trying to be funny I think that being cunty is hilarious and most drag queens do
22:41y'all decent
22:43well y'all clean up real good
22:47racers the winner of today's mini challenge is
23:00thank you
23:02I Am surprised I didn't clock her as being someone who is very photogenic but on drag race anything as
23:13possible
23:14Ladykins, now is your chance to put the T in Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent for your first maxi challenge.
23:22You'll be headlining a once-in-a-lifetime talent extravaganza.
23:28You're calling One Night Only.
23:36It's time to wow the world with your solo star power.
23:40But first, you'll need to work together on the big opening number.
23:45And in a moment, you'll head over to the rehearsal studio to come up with your own choreography.
23:50I know how to choreograph. It is my time to show everybody my skills.
23:54I'm definitely confident with what I'm going to bring.
23:59I'm nervous, y'all.
24:00I ain't like no, you know, choreographed dance and all that.
24:03And I'm not trying to let these girls know that I'm weak. I ain't no weak link.
24:06Ready? Racers, start your engines and may the best drag queen win.
24:12Yes!
24:13I'm feeling confident that I can do better than some of the people in the room.
24:17I thought you were going to get it. You're such a little model.
24:18I did too, but you know, Naomi was rejected once.
24:22You win some, you lose some, but I do plan on winning most.
24:29So it's time to figure out our choreography for our big performance of One Night Only.
24:35Good. Rehearsal.
24:37This is about showcasing why we are all on season 15.
24:41And we are tasked with figuring this all out by ourselves.
24:45So is anybody still choreographing?
24:48I like choreographing stuff.
24:49I choreograph, but so do I.
24:52Maybe some people do think they're choreographers, but are they good?
24:56That's the question.
24:57I will take the reins.
24:59And I'm going to take it hot.
25:01Do it.
25:01I have an extensive history in choreographing and dancing.
25:06So I'm thinking that I can really spearhead this for the group.
25:09I have some ideas already, but I want to see what you have prepared.
25:12I know you already kind of like, I thought about it.
25:15How about you do yours?
25:15And then we'll take it back, yeah.
25:17We'll elaborate from there.
25:18You know, mother has had to deal with a lot of children in her life.
25:22And what I've learned is you let the kids play, and then you clean them up later.
25:26So we've all listened to the song at this point.
25:28It doesn't feel like super dancey.
25:29It feels very like, ah, right.
25:31Like the chorus line.
25:32Yeah.
25:33Entering in couples could be really cute.
25:35How do we all enjoy?
25:37Sure.
25:37Oh.
25:39Sure, Jan.
25:40Sure, Jan.
25:41Okay, well, I do have an idea.
25:42Can I show it really quick?
25:43Yeah, sure.
25:43So for the first part, like, tonight, tonight.
25:46And then that, it's like, if you're doing this, you're.
25:50Oh, that's cute.
25:51And then the people that are up here will go.
25:55It kind of just turns into aura taking over the whole thing.
25:59Can I put you guys in formation?
26:00Great.
26:01And we just kind of don't listen to Marsha.
26:05But that's, you know, sure.
26:08So in my brain, it would be like two of us going.
26:11Yeah.
26:11Two of us.
26:12No, but I also, I also have that idea for, like, am I the greatest star?
26:16That's when we start walking in different groups.
26:18So Marsha has a lot of ideas, but I want to make sure that the better choreography.
26:28It's just, this is our first performance.
26:30I want this to look sickening as hell.
26:33I just think that there's not really a clear entrance.
26:35Yeah, I feel like we could still incorporate Marsha's idea because we still need to enter.
26:39We can figure that out.
26:40You can let us know, Marsha, if you want, if you have any idea for the entrance.
26:43I think she just said it.
26:46What we've already done does not correlate with what I wanted to do.
26:49Right.
26:49Because to me, at the beginning of the song, it sounds like the whisper is like,
26:52tonight, tonight, it's happening tonight.
26:54I'm sorry.
26:54I would love to not double choreograph it.
26:56Great, I'm president of course, of course.
26:57They keep going back and forth.
26:59I'm like, girls, I don't give a fuck what we do.
27:01Let's just do something.
27:02So who wants to give up control, Pharrell?
27:04Like, who wants to say, let's just finish this eight and go off?
27:06We can't even get past the first eight in Marsha and Aura's head.
27:09I think it's their moment to shine.
27:11Last time.
27:12Sorry, guys.
27:12Let's do it again.
27:13Ta-da, ta-da.
27:14See, that looks so beautiful.
27:16So how do we get here?
27:19It is about to be a very, very long night.
27:28Is this the meeting for the itty-bitty S-Titty committee?
27:31Because they're here!
27:33What's poppin', daddy?
27:34My name is Selena S-Titties, and I'm reppin' from Los Angeles.
27:37I'm the hustlin' diva West Hollywood girl.
27:39Yeah, she be twirlin' all through the streets, pounding pussy to pavement.
27:42Ooh!
27:43S-Titty's hot key, honey.
27:44Yeah, if you like these titties.
27:46Uh-oh.
27:47It's a hot chilo.
27:49S-Titty's aesthetic is ghetto superstar.
27:51She is cholita, campy, and cunt, baby.
27:54She is a chola from the hood, you know what I mean?
27:56She's a little t-titty, but it's okay.
27:57Everybody loves her.
27:59Hold on.
28:00Don't tell me I'm the only one who got invited to Roots Quinceanera, bitch.
28:03Bitch, I'm the first one!
28:05I don't have to fuck with no bitches.
28:07I guess it's a fiesta of one.
28:09I do the bar scenes and drag, but I also do a lot of TV, film, commercial work.
28:12She's a campy comedy girl.
28:13Baby, she's all of it wrapped with a bow, okay?
28:16I need to get comfortable.
28:18Let me get comfortable.
28:19Let me get comfortable.
28:22Ha-ha!
28:24I could get used to this!
28:33Is this thing on?
28:37I'm Amethyst, resident meme queen and pop star of Connecticut.
28:41My aesthetic is very influenced by the Y2K era.
28:45I am known as a comedy queen.
28:48I think my biggest achievement in drag would be going viral on TikTok.
28:53My most viral video has close to 8 million views.
28:56It is so cool to be the first viral TikTok queen to grace the stage of RuPaul's Drag Race.
29:02Hi, I'm Amethyst.
29:04Hi, I'm Amethyst.
29:05What's up, girl?
29:05Hi, sis.
29:06What's your name?
29:07Amethyst.
29:08Where are you from?
29:09Connecticut.
29:09First Connecticut queen.
29:11Really?
29:11Yeah.
29:12I like to think of myself as one of the top names in Connecticut, but I think I'm still labeled
29:16as a newbie or a newcomer or a baby queen.
29:19I like the undies.
29:20Oh, these are not undies, girl.
29:22These are called boxers.
29:23It's the same thing.
29:24Oh, is that what they say in Connecticut?
29:26We did it.
29:27We're here.
29:27She's at 15, baby.
29:29It's my quinceanera, bitch.
29:30Cheers.
29:36Oh.
29:37Make room for your MVP spelled J-A-X.
29:42My name is Jax and I'm the Simone Biles of drag.
29:45I consider myself extremely competitive.
29:47I have been a competitive athlete my entire life.
29:50I was a junior Olympic diver, a gymnast, a competitive cheerleader.
29:53I am so excited to be here on RuPaul's Drag Race season 15.
29:56I have worked so hard in every aspect of this craft and I'm ready to show the world what
30:01I got.
30:02What?
30:03What up?
30:04Hi, mommy.
30:06Girl, you're giving me bring it on.
30:07You're giving me co-vers.
30:08Gabrielle Union, Willow Smith, let's fucking go.
30:12Jax is banjie.
30:13She is athletic.
30:14She's also extremely preppy because although she's a primarily New York City queen, she's
30:19here to remind you that she is from Connecticut at the end of the day.
30:21You never gave me your name.
30:22Uh, Amethyst.
30:24Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
30:25You don't have crystals on you.
30:26Actually, I do have crystals on me.
30:28No.
30:28My mom gave this to me before I left.
30:30No way.
30:30Um, I have, I'm not spiritual or anything, but she was just like, if you have this on
30:33you, um, no, she's just, you know, white girl from Connecticut and she's just like,
30:37here's a quartz.
30:38I'm from Connecticut.
30:38I'm adopted and I'm from Connecticut.
30:41You're adopted?
30:42Yeah.
30:42Half Puerto Rican, half black.
30:43Oh yeah.
30:44Okay.
30:44You know what that means.
30:45She packing.
30:46She packing.
30:46Maybe tiny, but she mighty.
30:48Okay.
30:52Oh, Lucy.
30:55You've got some slaying to do.
30:57Oh.
30:59My name's Lucy LaDuca.
31:00I'm a construction worker by day and a drag queen at night.
31:03I go through a lot of duct tape.
31:05I'm known for my live singing, my quick wit and my man hands.
31:10But you know what?
31:10The boys like them.
31:11So.
31:12I'm so happy.
31:13You know her?
31:14Connecticut queen.
31:15She's looking sporty.
31:16She's skinny too.
31:18Immediately I hear all the queens talking about my body and I'm just thinking, yeah girls,
31:23the body is here.
31:25Hey girls.
31:25Hi mommy.
31:26Oh bitch.
31:28Oh my god.
31:30Lucy is one of the best hosts that we have in Connecticut.
31:33We go way back.
31:34I can't believe you're fucking here.
31:35I can't believe you're here.
31:36Don't drag for five seconds and you're already here.
31:39I see Amethyst and I see her outfit and I thought, okay, I've seen it before.
31:44But it's nice to see it in the workroom.
31:47So how long have you been doing drag?
31:49Two and a half years.
31:50Okay.
31:50Work.
31:51And what about you Miss Lucy?
31:52I've done drag for 12 years.
31:54Wow.
31:55Yeah mommy.
31:56Wait until you see what I am going to bring to this competition.
32:00I can't wait to show the world what I have to offer.
32:07Oh, wow.
32:09Don't be fooled.
32:11The camera adds 10 pounds.
32:13My name is mistress Isabel Brooks and I am the heavyweight champ from Houston, Texas.
32:17That's a big girl.
32:18A big girl.
32:19Where?
32:21My drag style is big, beautiful, and glamorous.
32:24I'm not afraid to experiment with different silhouettes.
32:27I'm going to look sexy and make you eat it, bitch.
32:29Look at those biddies.
32:30Look at those heels.
32:32What heels?
32:33Exactly.
32:34Okay, biscuit heel.
32:35I see you.
32:38It's the tiniest little shoe I've ever seen in my life.
32:40Oh my.
32:41Okay, bitch.
32:42It's game time.
32:42It's all funny games till I come through.
32:45Let me at them, bitch.
32:46I'm ready.
32:47Hi, mommy.
32:48I heard y'all bitches talk about my little kitten heels.
32:51Y'all know these fat bitches be breaking their ankle every season, so I had to make sure
32:54I was safe with the wind.
32:55There he is.
32:56There he is.
32:57Nice to meet you.
32:58What, what's your name?
32:59Mistress.
33:00Mistress.
33:01Mistress is about Brooks.
33:02It's a long, Texas name.
33:03Can I just tell you mistress?
33:04Mistress is fine.
33:06What is this, honey?
33:08It's called drag, bitch.
33:10You're giving me very prison, Selena Quintanilla.
33:14Check the wrist tap, bitch.
33:15Okay, well, I'll be Yolanda this season, okay, baby?
33:18She calls herself Yolanda.
33:21Who wants to be Yolanda?
33:22I'm sizing everyone up.
33:24I'm gonna have to whoop first.
33:24I feel that from you.
33:26Next queen, please.
33:27Next queen.
33:27I'm ready to meet the next queen.
33:29Okay.
33:30I'm living because she just embodies that down south drag.
33:34Drag is here.
33:35You want a drag, baby?
33:37Here it is.
33:40Oh.
33:41Oh.
33:43Mirror, mirror on the wall.
33:46Who's the fiercest queen of them all?
33:50It's me.
33:52I'm Robin Fierce, Connecticut's grand diva, darling.
33:56I'm like if Diane Carroll, Mariah Carey, and Beyonce had a baby.
34:00Hi, hello, that's me.
34:02She is hot, bitch.
34:04Damn.
34:04Now we got RuPaul's Drag Race Connecticut, apparently.
34:07Oh, is she from Connecticut?
34:08Yes.
34:09Shut up.
34:09I love her.
34:10I love her.
34:11So who's working in Connecticut right now, then?
34:13No.
34:16No, bitch, get over me.
34:20Oh my god.
34:21Robin Fierce is a light that shines very brightly, and everybody comes like a moth to a flame, my darling.
34:26It's the confidence, the regal-ness, just that bad bitchery.
34:30Hi.
34:31It's safe to say I know Robin better than anybody else in this competition.
34:36So yeah, we have a little past.
34:39If Amethyst would like to tell y'all, I will let her do that.
34:44People at home, don't try to ship us. I'm not having it. I will block you.
34:49Robin, tell me about your drag, because this is cunty, baby.
34:51I think that is my drag, just cunty, baby.
34:55Robin's lace was reflecting from the duct tape under the cap.
34:58Prep is everything in drag. She should've wore a wig cap.
35:01Vinyl duct tape, but all the lighting was a no-no, baby.
35:04I cannot believe you're wearing a nail. I've never seen a nail on this girl.
35:07Lies. Liza Minnelli, she wears nails.
35:09She can't even look at me.
35:09Don't believe this line, asshole.
35:11Go home, Lucy.
35:13No, I don't plan on going home the whole time.
35:15We'll see.
35:19What?
35:20Are there two of them? There's two of them.
35:22Are they twins?
35:23Well, this doesn't look like the toy store.
35:25Queenie, that was my line.
35:27Whatever.
35:29What in the Maria, Kate, and Ashley's going on?
35:32I'm Sugar.
35:33And I'm Spice.
35:34And we're the dolls that came to life.
35:37You might know us as a duo on TikTok, but here, we're each sold separately.
35:41And we're competing against each other.
35:43So, bye, bitch.
35:44Get out of my frame.
35:45They're from TikTok land. I know them.
35:47I've seen Sugar and Spice on TikTok.
35:49These girls are coming for my gig.
35:51They look like Romy and Michelle on an acid trip.
35:54The first twins walking in on drag race, it's about to be the gag of the century.
35:58We're just ready to shake these girlies up, because that's what we do best.
36:00Ooh.
36:03When the twins walk in, I gagged.
36:06I think they're very annoying.
36:07Because it's like, mmm, baby.
36:10And I'm just like...
36:11So, first week's going to be a double elimination?
36:13Ooh.
36:14Okay.
36:15Oh, my God.
36:17When me and Spice started doing drag on social media, we have accumulated 7 million followers
36:22on TikTok.
36:23Did any of y'all recognize us from TikTok?
36:25I did, yeah.
36:27No.
36:27No.
36:28I do know them, but I'm not going to give them the satisfaction that I do.
36:32Never heard of you, baby.
36:33Girls, I'm stuck in my childhood forever, so, like, that's why we're life-sized dolls.
36:37Like, hi, I'm Spice, I'm a doll, I'm plastic.
36:41Oh, my God.
36:41That's scary.
36:41It's like Chucky to Annabelle.
36:43I know.
36:44I'll be the Chucky of drag.
36:45And I'm, like, the plastic, like, fun, like, Barbie, you know.
36:48Just the prettier one.
36:48Well, we always say she's kind of like Regina George and I'm Janice Ian, you know.
36:51Is this what you do on TikTok?
36:53You all, like, rehearse lines and then you just say all your lines all the time?
36:56Honestly, our names are Sugar and Spice, but we should really just be called Canned and Bit.
37:00Yeah, we have so many bits and they're so canned.
37:01We have a lot of good bits.
37:04It's a lot.
37:05It's a lot.
37:05It's a lot.
37:06I'm swiping.
37:07I don't want to see it anymore.
37:08So, keep going.
37:09Next, next, next.
37:10So, where are you guys from?
37:12We're from Long Island, New York.
37:14Oh.
37:15But we just moved to LA a couple months ago.
37:17You did?
37:18Yeah.
37:18Where do you perform?
37:20Um, in our room.
37:21Oh!
37:22I thought so.
37:23I've never seen you host.
37:24Did you guys, like, do, like, more performance shows when you were back home?
37:27Or have you guys been more, like...
37:28We have done some performances.
37:30We have one or two performances and they were a nightmare.
37:33So, y'all don't perform and, like, do actual drag.
37:35Yeah, it's a drag competition, baby.
37:37I'm used to other drag queens not really seeing me as a quote-unquote drag queen.
37:41But I definitely want to change that misconception.
37:43I'm dying to be a part of a drag community and I'm hoping here I'll be able to make friends
37:48and we can just go home and bake a big drag queen pie and we can all live happily ever
37:51after.
37:52Wait, so is this everyone?
37:54I feel like there's only half of us here so far.
37:56Guys, you think that they're gonna do, like, the split premiere thing?
37:58What if the other girls already came and we're, like, the second batch?
38:01No, there would have been stuff in here, though.
38:03I was literally just thinking, yeah, no, it looked too clean.
38:06It's season 15, something has to be up.
38:12Coordination?
38:12There's another one.
38:14What is going on?
38:16Is Vivacious coming back to compete?
38:18I'm so confused.
38:19What's happening?
38:20She's back.
38:21Milk it, girl, milk it.
38:23Reveal, reveal, reveal.
38:24No.
38:25Wait, no.
38:29Mother has arrived.
38:30Look over there.
38:30Oh, my God.
38:32Vivacious.
38:33In the flesh.
38:34Are we doing an early out season?
38:35No.
38:36Really.
38:37Mother has arrived.
38:39Look over there.
38:42Hello, hello, hello.
38:46I am gagged to finally see RuPaul in person.
38:52It's happening.
38:53It's happening.
38:54I'm feeling the feel.
38:55Welcome to RuPaul's Drag Race season 15.
38:59Woo!
39:00Now, in honor of Vivacious, Ornacea, and all the queens who have come before you, I'm counting
39:07on each of you to take us to new heights of drag.
39:12Hell, yeah.
39:13Hey.
39:14And Vivacious, I hear you're going to hang out with us today.
39:18Lies.
39:19Lies on my Nelly.
39:20Lies.
39:21Well, I hate to see you leave, but I love to watch you walk away.
39:26Vivacious, show these children how it is done.
39:30Anything for you, Mother.
39:31Lies.
39:32There you go.
39:34Now it's.
39:35Ow, ow, ow.
39:36Yes.
39:37Bring me my kick back now.
39:38Mother has departed.
39:41Now, for your very first mini challenge, we're going to go back to our roots.
39:47All you have to do is strike a pose and blow me away.
39:55Good luck and jump.
39:57Fuck it up.
39:59I love taking photos, so I'm like,
40:01oh, thank God, something I can do.
40:03I just have to stand there and look pretty, you know?
40:04Let's start the season off of the bang.
40:11These are my favorite outfits the pit crew has ever worn.
40:15Yeah.
40:16Trend alert.
40:18Selena S. Kitties.
40:20Hi.
40:21Hello.
40:22Hi, Thiamroo.
40:24Inspired by the season two premiere photo shoot,
40:27get ready to be blown away.
40:30We are trading cannons for crotch rockets.
40:33Speaking of crotch rockets, say hello to the pit crew.
40:37Hi, Daddy.
40:38Assume the position, straddle that hog.
40:42Not that hog, the other one, yeah.
40:44Baby, it feels so amazing that I get to be a part of the legacy, okay?
40:48We are here, season 15, the quinceanera, baby.
40:50Let's go.
40:51The important thing is to connect with the camera no matter what happens.
40:55You want to make love to it.
40:57Oh, we are looking for a fabulous shot.
40:59All right.
40:59Make room for Bruno.
41:02Fan setting one.
41:03There we go.
41:03There we go.
41:04Okay.
41:05Faster, pussycat.
41:06Kill, kill.
41:08Pterography, honey.
41:09I am feeling like a model.
41:10I am just living in the wind, and I hear RuPaul go, connect with the camera.
41:14And I'm like, am I not connecting with the camera?
41:16Because I am connecting with Bruno, bitch.
41:18I am living.
41:19Bruno, look out for those trees.
41:21Oh, okay, we can do this maid bully.
41:23Oh, okay.
41:25Full tilt boogie.
41:27You ready, Bruno?
41:28I don't fuck around.
41:29We're going to beat this traffic.
41:31Oh.
41:34I will see you in traffic school.
41:37Hey, sis, it's Amethyst.
41:40Woo!
41:42Put on your seatbelt.
41:44Here comes Oktoberfest.
41:46Hey, remember, the camera's over here.
41:48It's really hard to concentrate, especially when leads are being thrown at you, and I am quite
41:54literally eating them.
41:56Oh, my goodness.
41:58Turn it up to 11.
42:00Hold on tight.
42:01Yes.
42:03Watch out for that bus.
42:06All right, Jax, I think you're approaching the Rose Parade.
42:12Yeah, whip that hair.
42:13Yeah.
42:14I am so excited to be paying homage to season two of Drag Race.
42:19You have ass to ass.
42:22I'm thinking I did pretty good in this challenge.
42:25However, I could have been feeling myself, but looking like a bum.
42:28Who's driving this thing?
42:32Oh, look out for those pedestrians.
42:35Paging mistress Isabel Brooks.
42:38It looks like you're heading up on a flock of seagulls.
42:41Oh, dear.
42:42Are you a bird lady?
42:44What's that?
42:45My eyelash is blowing, my wig is shifting, and bitch, all three of my chins are jiggling.
42:50But I'm a bitch, I'ma still shut it down.
42:53Yes, mama.
42:57Houston, we don't have a problem.
43:01Lucy LaDuca.
43:03Have you ever ridden a motorcycle before?
43:05Um, I've ridden a biker before.
43:06Okay, well, that counts.
43:08I am ready to blow Miss RuPaul away.
43:11You can grab tighter.
43:11Oh, and look, they brought my biggest fan.
43:15Oh, my goodness, Bryce, you're holding on for dear life.
43:19Oh, you just flew through a flock of birds.
43:22Sell me the fantasy.
43:27Where all these birds come from?
43:30Where's Tippi Higgins when you need her?
43:33Up next, we've got the Robin, Fierce.
43:36Yes, burn Robin.
43:37You look like Mel Bermore up in here.
43:39I know how to take pictures.
43:40I know I look good.
43:41But, like, it's a shoe-in.
43:43Why do feathers gotta be white?
43:45Feathers.
43:46They decided to throw feathers at me the day that I wore gloss.
43:52Oh, shoot.
43:53Why they gotta be black?
43:57And they all are sticking to my lips right now.
44:00Oh, girl.
44:01And you've got a beard now.
44:02You've got to take those off.
44:04Oh, now they red.
44:05Oh, shoot.
44:07That's it.
44:08This must be a sign of the apocalypse.
44:11I gotta tell you, wig glue has really improved since season two.
44:18That was definitely something.
44:23So, what did y'all think about the twins when they first walked in?
44:25I thought it was kind of sickening that two people were walking in at the same time.
44:28I gagged, but then I wasn't gagging when I saw who it was.
44:31And we saw that on your face the whole time, girl.
44:35Well, you know, don't play in my profession, bitch.
44:37Drag is my bread and butter, so...
44:39They're very sweet.
44:40If I had to tell her to glue down her wig for the first challenge, it's a chop for me.
44:45Yeah.
44:46Right before the photo shoot, my eyes scroll to the top of her head and her lace is waving
44:50to me.
44:50I'll help her, though.
44:51I'm not going to talk shit, but, you know.
44:53You're not going to talk shit as you're talking shit.
44:55But I helped her, though.
44:57I fixed her wig for her, and I helped her.
44:59With Sugar, she had no idea what wig glue is, but I'm not really surprised considering
45:04I'm the first real drag queen she's met.
45:06It's a sisterhood regardless.
45:07No, you have to earn my sisterhood.
45:09I don't just call everyone my sister.
45:11It's cool to be, like, internet queen, but maybe they'll show us that they're sickening.
45:15Seeing is believing with me.
45:16When I see it, I'll believe it.
45:19All right, let's pour some sugar on it.
45:23Nice.
45:24On the arms.
45:25Yeah, try that hair-ography on them.
45:27Oh, yeah.
45:28Honey, that motorcycle's driving itself.
45:30Oh, no, it's snow.
45:32Don't spit.
45:33Just swallow it.
45:36Woo!
45:37Are you having a seizure?
45:39Okay.
45:40Oh, my goodness.
45:42I'm trying to stick to my modeling rules of suck in the gut, stick out the butt, and tighten
45:45that tuck.
45:46This look is based on the first ever brass saw I had.
45:49Sugar and Spice are names that literally come from these dolls.
45:52I heard rice has dandruff, but this is outrageous.
45:56Well, that was a wild ride.
45:57Is the wig still on?
45:59Well, we've had sugar.
46:01Let's have a little bit of spice.
46:03Hello.
46:04I'm a little scared, because I'm like, I didn't really pin this wig in that well.
46:07But, yeah, Drag Princess always comes prepared.
46:13I got my little shower cap.
46:15Oh, interesting.
46:16Yeah.
46:17You know, spice always has to be a little different, and you can't go wrong with a shower cap.
46:21Do we like?
46:21Are we living?
46:22So, you want to do hair-ography with a shower cap?
46:25Of course.
46:25That's an interesting choice.
46:27But, you know, I feel like the shower cap, it's cute.
46:29It adds a little drama, a little variety.
46:31You could imagine how gorgeous your hair would look with the fan blowing, right?
46:35But you want to wear a shower cap, and that's your choice, so let's do it.
46:40I've been ready for this my whole life.
46:41Like, this is the moment I have been waiting for.
46:44It's kind of like my mini America's Next Style Model moment.
46:46Work that shower cap, girl.
46:50Oh, is it springtime already?
46:53Oh, it's a change of seasons.
46:54Don't you love the fall?
46:55I love the fall.
46:56Oh, my goodness.
47:00So, you certainly are a sugar sister.
47:04Climate change is a problem.
47:07I believe in science.
47:11Whose idea was this?
47:14Hello?
47:16Oh.
47:17Y'all like my new look?
47:18What happened to your wig, girl?
47:19Oh, her wig flew.
47:21Vice is coming back in after her photo shoot,
47:24looking like Donald fucking Duck with the hat on.
47:26Bitch, you look crazy.
47:28God.
47:29Y'all look so different out of drag.
47:31Whoa.
47:32I can't recognize half of these girls.
47:34I'm like, who is this tattooed man in the corner?
47:36Oh, that's Lucy.
47:37The tattoos?
47:38I did not expect that from your blonde persona.
47:41Yeah, it's like super different.
47:42Now I'm seeing the construction work.
47:45Oh, my God.
47:46Wow, you look...
47:47What?
47:48I think you were like blonde.
47:49Wow.
47:50Is it all your natural hair, too?
47:51Mm-hmm.
47:52Mistress is the biggest transformation.
47:54She goes from this glamorous Houston drag queen
47:57to the owner of a pizzeria.
47:59That was so mean.
48:03Listen, before y'all got here, I was like,
48:05I'm curious to see what the twins are going to bring
48:07because a lot of people audition year after year after year.
48:10So for y'all to come through, I feel like,
48:12bitch, I better impress.
48:15So I'm excited.
48:16Yeah, I'm excited to see what y'all bring to the table, too.
48:18It's going to be interesting, for sure, yeah.
48:19Mistress is definitely, I mean, took her down.
48:23She's trying to get into the gig, and she's collecting her data.
48:26Like, it's very different for me to be around people this young,
48:28even though I'm young.
48:29No, really.
48:30Like, in Houston, most of our established queens are, like, much older.
48:32We work with drag legends on the regular shows.
48:34Like, we work with, like, Tommy Ross, Chevelle Brooks, like, big names.
48:37So, I mean, I respect the older queens.
48:38I love my drag legends, especially in Texas.
48:43But if everyone had to describe themselves, like, in one adjective,
48:46what would it be?
48:47Because for me...
48:47Bitch, what is this, icebreakers and seven grades?
48:49No, because you said I was goofy, and the other day,
48:51I, like, I was, like, talking to myself, as, you know, as we do.
48:54And I was, like, oh, my God, I'm goofy.
48:57I've realized, like, I just kind of, like, words come out,
48:59and then after I kind of, like, put them together, you know,
49:02like, I don't really know what happened.
49:03It's just, like, after the fact, I'm like, okay, that makes a sentence.
49:06Sugar and spice are a lot.
49:08We are, like, damn, they are the same.
49:10In and out of drag, it just won't stop, won't it?
49:12I feel like everyone's either, like, a bike ride person
49:14or a porch person, like, you're either one.
49:16I'm not a porch person.
49:17I'm both.
49:18When me and Sugar start getting into our own little world,
49:20and I'm like, okay, oh, we're talking over each other.
49:23It's like, weird vomit.
49:24But, like, we would always go on bike rides.
49:25We had magical bike rides.
49:27Talk about.
49:28I think some of the girls still feel annoyed by Sugar and Spice.
49:30We just came out, and I was like, I'm re-getting all of our dolls.
49:33But I'm starting to warm up to them.
49:35Sugar and Spice are a fucking hoot.
49:37I think we move on from that one.
49:39Don't leave us to our own devices.
49:40Y'all get distracted, because y'all make no sense at all.
49:44Well, look what the wind blew in.
49:47Oh, I'm not running, bitch.
49:50I'm a tiptoe.
49:53Ladykins.
49:54The winner of today's mini-challenge is...
49:59Lucy LaDuca.
50:00Oh!
50:01Thank you, girl!
50:02It's me!
50:04I won!
50:05I won the very first challenge.
50:07You've won a cash prize of $2,500.
50:10Oh, okay.
50:11I want to win everything.
50:12I want to be the first one in history to win every mini-challenge and every maxi-challenge.
50:18My queens, now it's time to get things rolling.
50:21For your very first maxi-challenge, you'll be performing in a talent extravaganza.
50:27We're calling, One Night Only!
50:31One Night Only!
50:35In addition to showcasing your individual talents, you need to choreograph a group number for your big, juicy opening.
50:43And in a moment, you'll head to the rehearsal studio to get started.
50:48Racers, start your engines!
50:50And may the best drag queen win.
50:53I'm very excited because I finally get to see what the girls are going to bring.
50:58Woo!
50:59Yay!
50:59Away!
51:00Now you have to put your money where your mouth is and do what you do and just show the
51:05world and impress.
51:08Meanwhile, back with our unsuspecting queens on the rehearsal stage.
51:12Y'all ready for some premiere drama, mama?
51:15I think we should all have a moment like, am I the greatest star?
51:18Or life will have baloney?
51:20Cute!
51:20The fact that we have to do choreography for our first challenge is a little bit nerve-wracking,
51:25but I'm starting to feel like we're actually going to impress the judges with this stuff.
51:28Five, six, seven, eight.
51:30Tonight, tonight, one night only.
51:34Oh!
51:35Oh!
51:36Yay!
51:37Good God!
51:38Oh my God!
51:40Why is RuPaul here?
51:42Hi, Lady Kins.
51:43Hi!
51:44Ru, not now, don't.
51:46Just let me get the choreography first before you start throwing spins and turns on me.
51:51Do you know what would make your big opening even more irresistible?
51:56Hmm, take it from me.
51:58I know my way around some big openings.
52:03Eight more dancers.
52:06Isn't that a great idea?
52:09Send in the clowns, Chaz.
52:15Oh my God, okay.
52:18Queens of season 15, meet the queens of season 15.
52:21Oh my God.
52:23I did not expect this to happen right now.
52:24I was fully focused on this rehearsal and there they are.
52:28Oh, not this.
52:32I'm not impressed.
52:35It's like a showdown.
52:37I'm skewed.
52:37All right.
52:45That's right.
52:47All of you are vying for the title of America's next drag superstar.
52:51And the competition kicks off tomorrow at the biggest talent show in drag race history.
52:5916 individual performances.
53:04But, before this week is over, one of you will be going home.
53:11For reals.
53:16This isn't like last season.
53:20You're cutting to the point right away.
53:22Like someone is getting the chop.
53:23I can already tell there are some divas over there who are here to play.
53:28How am I going to stand out amongst all these girls?
53:31We can't even choreograph this number with eight people.
53:3416?
53:35You ever hear the old joke of 16 drag queens walking to a bar?
53:40I haven't either, but I don't think it ends very well.
53:43I don't think it ends very well.
