00:03We are back in the workroom, and this is the lowest I have felt in the competition.
00:09From Sierra, you all are stars, but consider bigger lips.
00:15Not only did I lip sync for my survival, I now have to face a group of queens who thought
00:22I did a bad job.
00:25We love you, Sierra.
00:28I feel like, am I delusional? I thought I did a good job, but my ego is bruised.
00:34Athena, I'm recruiting you for my punk band. Congratulations, that was absolutely amazing.
00:39Jane had a feel being up there as well. First time lip syncing, right?
00:42Yeah. I'm a little disappointed in myself.
00:45You know, we keep getting close.
00:47So I will go back to our accommodations and tear up a picture of Athena Dion.
00:54You wouldn't be the first queen to do that, by the way.
00:56No, I know. I'll feel like every other girl in Miami.
00:59Miami won the talent show.
01:01Yay!
01:02That's a nice thing.
01:03It's happening through the competition, and the Florida Alliance is still going strong.
01:07Not a single casualty.
01:09So, now that y'all were in our shoes, how did it feel having to vote?
01:13Not good.
01:14That was shitty.
01:15It's tough as hell.
01:16I think there was a vast difference in the way both teams approached the voting.
01:20Our group, when we voted, it was almost like we were a little naive to kind of what was going
01:24on overall.
01:25And then I think that we did feel—
01:26What do you mean?
01:27Well, I'm going to get to it.
01:28I think that we did feel a little pressed this week when everybody was kind of rallying to vote for
01:32certain people.
01:33Athena, shut the actual fuck up.
01:35We literally had a plan together for us to, you know—
01:38Why is she getting pressed about this?
01:40I'm so confused.
01:41It felt a little like, wait a minute.
01:42Were we supposed to do that too?
01:44Is that the tea?
01:45Is that what y'all did?
01:46I want to get some clarity on the difference between the picking process that you feel was done between last
01:52week and this week.
01:53There was a lot of grouping going on, and I don't know what y'all were talking about.
01:56And from the outside, it looked like there was some kind of strategy going on.
02:00I, in my head, I had certain people at the lead, but they—
02:03Which is strategy just the same.
02:05Excuse me one second.
02:05But they shined bright enough for me to place them up there.
02:08So for me, it was honest by their performance and something I was going to do anyway.
02:13At the end of the day, relationships came into play on both sides.
02:17So to try to say that one was sneaky and one was honest is just not the truth.
02:23Discord and I, that's my sister.
02:25And just how some of you ladies have packs with other ladies, I had a pack with my sister.
02:30So I placed her, you know, a little higher than I placed Mikey.
02:39If Sierra wouldn't have vocalized that she wanted me to be in the bottom, then other people wouldn't have felt
02:43the need to protect me.
02:45It was kind of like a domino effect.
02:46Everything was very strategic as far as how I went about it.
02:49But at the same time, I knew that you could eliminate some big competition.
02:54That sucks.
02:56I got the short end of the stick with all this shit.
02:58It feels a little dirty to me.
03:00Now I have a stain on my record because of the strategies from others.
03:04At the end of the day, this is a game and everybody is, you know, weaving and sneaking and all
03:09this type of shit.
03:10But it is what it is.
03:12I feel frustrated.
03:14I feel hurt.
03:15I feel shocked.
03:16That just really sucked to know that other people's opinions are like, well, someone else wasn't as strong, but I'm
03:22going to put this girl on the bottom.
03:23But I do believe that people thought you would be able to send.
03:26But that's not fair.
03:28And then what happens if she knocked me out?
03:29Bitch.
03:31Don't give me a challenge to prove you wrong.
03:35Girl, let me get out of this disgusting ass wig.
03:37I'm Mikey motherfucking Meeks.
03:40I worked incredibly hard to get to this position.
03:43I'm turning that volume all the way up.
03:46And I'm about to prove to these girls you messed with the wrong one.
03:52Superstar.
03:53It's a new day in the workroom.
03:55Brand new week.
03:56We're here.
03:59The Miami hoes brought it home.
04:09Child, I skip in the room, happy-go-lucky.
04:11Next thing I know.
04:13Oh, what the fuck?
04:15We have a little Raider Queen receipt.
04:19Who's lying and who wasn't, hoes?
04:21This is Shady.
04:22Shady Shady Shady Shady.
04:23Dun dun dun.
04:24The secrets are about to be exposed.
04:26Those girlies.
04:27Part one rankings.
04:29And first we have Juicy Love Dion.
04:31Yes.
04:32Second, Mia Starr.
04:33Yes.
04:33Third, Nene Coco.
04:35Fourth, Darlene Mitchell.
04:37Fifth, Vita Von T. Starr.
04:39And sixth, Sierra Mist.
04:41Oh.
04:42Okay, so Juicy was voted first by Athena, Discord, Jane, Mikey.
04:46With Kenya voting you second.
04:48Thank you guys.
04:48Yeah.
04:50Mia.
04:51Fierce.
04:53I think that's fair.
04:54Bernini Coco.
04:57This is, this is some, some shitty shit.
05:01I thought I could have been a contender for the top.
05:03So, I'm a little confused how all these ratings are shaking out.
05:06These girls are not voting off of what they saw on stage.
05:09Does everybody not like me?
05:13Darlene Mitchell.
05:14Quite the gap there.
05:15Quite the gap.
05:16All right.
05:16All right.
05:16Vita.
05:18I mean, it is what it is.
05:21I honestly don't give a fuck because I'm not here to prove my worth to these girls.
05:26And then Sierra, sixth.
05:29All right.
05:30Well, that's week one.
05:31Week two.
05:32First, Jane Don't.
05:34Second, Athena.
05:35Third, Kenya.
05:36Fourth, Discord.
05:36Fifth, Mikey.
05:39Jane.
05:40Fourth for Mia.
05:42All right.
05:43Here's my reason.
05:44I already promised these two what I was going to do.
05:48And it wasn't anything besides things that I promised.
05:53Dina Dion, second.
05:55Thank you for all my supporters who made this win possible.
06:00Kenya at third.
06:01Ooh.
06:02You got every single ranking.
06:04Royal flush.
06:05Bitch, I'm smart.
06:06This is a competition.
06:08So I needed to have a locked in first vote to make sure, no matter what, that I was still
06:13going to be safe.
06:14Y'all playing checkers.
06:14Y'all playing checkers.
06:15I mean, y'all playing chess and I'm playing checkers.
06:17What's the thing?
06:18Duh, duh, duh.
06:19Okay.
06:20And thank you, Mia.
06:21Of course.
06:22I already gave her my word.
06:23I was putting her first, no matter what.
06:25Can I share my logic?
06:26Yeah, girl.
06:27Your number, I felt, was super high energy.
06:29It just felt more predictable.
06:33And unoriginal.
06:35I mean.
06:35And unoriginal?
06:36Just, yeah.
06:37Like I didn't see, there was nothing that surprised me in the number.
06:42Damn, bitch.
06:43He does come in a little hot.
06:44You know that friend that can't read the room?
06:46That's Nene Coco.
06:48Let's keep it pushing.
06:49All right.
06:50Discord.
06:50Oh.
06:51Hmm.
06:52Plot twist America.
06:54Sierra did not vote me last.
06:55So I am surprised that Sierra put me in fourth.
06:58But I will say, I did kind of walk by Sierra and mention that I do love dancing to Britney
07:04Spears.
07:05Britney was always my diva growing up.
07:08So, I don't know.
07:09Maybe she heard that and second guessed who she wanted to lip sync against.
07:12Or maybe she genuinely loved my performance.
07:15Okay.
07:16And for MVP, Mikey Meeks.
07:21Wow.
07:22This is just bananas to me.
07:26But I won the lip sync.
07:28I'm still here.
07:29This revenge shirt is steaming.
07:33Oh, these girls!
07:34Can we never do this ever fucking again?
07:36I went home.
07:37My blood pressure's up.
07:38My ankle's swollen, bitch.
07:39It's too much, girl.
07:41Hello, hello, hello.
07:43Hey.
07:44Good.
07:47Good morning, citizens.
07:48Good morning.
07:50You know, the midterm elections are coming up.
07:53And voting for your rights and the rights of others is serious business.
07:58Yep.
07:58But today, I give you permission to be seriously silly.
08:03For this week's maxi challenge, working in pairs, you need to produce and star in totally
08:11twisted political ads that parody today's most polarizing issues.
08:16I deserve fucking Emmy for that line.
08:20I know.
08:21I know.
08:22I know.
08:23I know.
08:24I know.
08:26You wanna make it easy.
08:26Fit to goals!
08:29Oh, shit!
08:33Ah-huh!
08:33Uh-huh!
08:33Uh-huh!
08:33Beautiful lot!
08:41Uh-huh!
08:44Ooh!
08:44Come on, dude?
08:48Look at me, moving on.
08:55and reach into Bruno's sack.
08:58So Darlene Mitchell has a pink nut.
09:01Okay.
09:03Vida. Pink.
09:04Vida will be paired with Darlene Mitchell.
09:08Black.
09:10Blue.
09:11Polka dot! I won't!
09:13Little red dots all over it.
09:15I would see a doctor as soon as possible.
09:17What did you do to me, Bruno?
09:19Brown.
09:21I just rated Discord in the bottom spot last week.
09:24So, hope she's not having hard feelings.
09:29Now that you're all paired up, I'll leave it to you
09:32to decide which propositions you'll be working on.
09:36Now, later today, you'll shoot your spots
09:38with the always progressive Michelle Vassar.
09:42Oh, great work!
09:43Racers, start your engines and may the best drag queen win.
09:48I feel great about the pairing because Jane is a funny-ass bitch.
09:52But also, Raider Queen definitely has opened a lot of these queens' eyes
09:56to how these girls truly feel about them.
09:58It's gonna be interesting to see how the remainder of this competition
10:00is really gonna go.
10:05This week's maxi challenge is to create pro and con political ads.
10:09And it is time to pick our propositions.
10:13Proposition 6969 opposes all relations with foreign men.
10:18Proposition Kiki will make kai kai between drag queens illegal.
10:23Proposition C wants to officially add the letter C to the LGBTQIA.
10:29And the C stands for clown.
10:32Proposition 4 Real, which aims to ban all social media slash look queens.
10:38Proposition Double Ds, which will make padding, tits, and lace fronts mandatory for all drag queens.
10:45Okay, okay.
10:46Proposition Double Ds is for me.
10:48This is who I am.
10:49Well, we kinda wanna take 6969.
10:53Okay, I think we want the Kiki.
10:54Kiki.
10:55Okay, so Kiki, 6969.
10:58What else?
10:58Clown.
10:58Clown.
10:59We're kinda leading towards the padding.
11:01We were leading towards the padding.
11:02Yeah, we were leading towards the padding one as well, the Double Ds.
11:05I have shown you guys that I have some ass, I got the titties, and big booty bitches.
11:10And I also famously don't wear pads.
11:13To kind of like sell you on the social media aspect, like you do have a bit of an age
11:19gap.
11:20But aren't you a bedroom queen?
11:22So you have that experience as a social media queen.
11:26Bitch, back down now.
11:28Listen, I'm the only one who wears breastplates here.
11:31I'm the titty girl.
11:32I just truly, truly believe in the padding.
11:37Listen, do you have Double D big tits here with you?
11:41All right, we are going into every station to look for traces of a Double D breastplate.
11:47So is there a retattle for the rebuttal to the other rebuttal that was retattled?
11:50Darlene, when we were casting RDR Live, you automatically got the one you wanted.
11:54I wanted Daisy, but I was like, fine, let my bitch get Daisy.
11:57So I took whatever that was open.
11:59All of the sudden, Mia pulls out this like receipt book that's like, well, I gave you this and I
12:04did this for you.
12:05And I'm like, girl, where was that?
12:08I don't remember you wanting Daisy.
12:09I didn't want to argue with you because I just didn't.
12:12So then I feel like it can't be used as an argument now.
12:13But what I'm saying is you have gotten your way in other challenges.
12:17And I haven't.
12:17That's gotten her way in other challenges.
12:19I just want to sink into the couch and get to work on my proposition and these girls are not
12:24budging.
12:24You got what you wanted.
12:26Because nobody else was wanting it.
12:29Like how much time do we have here?
12:30Can somebody just concede and take the other one?
12:33Do you want to rock, paper, scissors?
12:34I don't want to do rock, paper, scissors.
12:36Hey, you're so sorry,0000.
12:40rawns
12:41Mia is not backing down.
12:43And I'm just imagining that angry poodle on the end of the couch.
12:46You're not going to do that.
12:47So go ahead.
12:48I'm like, oh, God, okay.
12:50I'm not going to win this fight.
12:51Can we make a deal that in the future, if there's anything else that we will be taking care of
12:56the...
12:57Perfect.
12:58Oh, my God.
13:00Oh, my God.
13:01Oh, my God.
13:03Kenya looks please.
13:05Now that the decision has been made, let's get to writing our script.
13:09Hey! Let's do this, girl!
13:12It's a good day to be a clown.
13:13I'm Mikey Meeks, and I approve this message.
13:16If you went, pageantry is mandatory.
13:18And then if I was kind of making fun of all the different, like, social medias,
13:22like, there could be, like, only drag.
13:24You know, where I'm, like, on a pit crew, like,
13:26and you can make money, you know?
13:27And I'm, like, straddling me like a pit crew.
13:29This is kind of what I do at home.
13:31Like, me and my fiancé, we build sets and create these little worlds.
13:35This kind of worked out better for me.
13:38So, thanks, Mia!
13:40I am definitely against pads.
13:42Maybe pads mandatory.
13:44I feel really excited being paired with my niece.
13:46We just came off of a win.
13:48However, I'm nervous because I'm still trying to wrap my head around
13:52what I need to be doing.
13:53Double, what's her name? Double Z's?
13:58Look, just the two ADD pissy bitches, like...
14:03We're writing our storyboards, but we are in a two-way dead end.
14:11It's baking two empty coconuts together, and nothing's coming out.
14:17Naturalist a word? Naturalist?
14:21I kind of wish I was paired with Jane and Mikey,
14:24because I know they're both very good with character work.
14:27Mikey helped me out in the RDR live challenge.
14:29Maybe you say, like, her,
14:30stop relying on that body.
14:33You know?
14:33Me and Mia are very good dancers.
14:39How are you feeling?
14:40What do you think?
14:41Stressing out a little bit.
14:42Okay.
14:43We have to keep reminding ourselves that this is us.
14:53We have to keep reminding ourselves.
14:55Hello!
14:56Michelle!
14:57Are you kids ready to get political?
14:58Yes, ma'am.
14:59I'm feeling excited to get in front of the camera again,
15:01and I think we're going to have a really good commercial.
15:04What is your proposition?
15:06I'm anti-Foreign trade.
15:07For the skit only.
15:09For the skit only.
15:10Let it be known.
15:11Let it be known.
15:12After being in the bottom, I have something to prove.
15:14But this challenge is right up my alley.
15:16And action.
15:17Hey, what's up?
15:19I'm concerned American citizen Stephanie Miller.
15:22But you can call me Lollipop.
15:26I think you have a fun character here.
15:29Like, you're just regular girl Stephanie Miller.
15:31Lean into it.
15:32What do these have in common?
15:33Foreign trade, girl.
15:35Yes!
15:36Mikey is killing it.
15:38She has Michelle in stitches.
15:40Everyone is loving party girl Stephanie Miller.
15:43Mikey's living her best life back there.
15:45The scene's over, whore.
15:46Why are my nipples hard?
15:47Ah!
15:47Okay, so, Athena.
15:49We're going to get a voice over first.
15:50Trade should be American ass.
15:51So am I not going to be on this part physically?
15:56Um.
15:56I want to be in it too.
15:58Like, it's like raining wieners behind me.
16:00But you're going to...
16:01It's like a zoom in dramatic kind of moment where it's like, yeah, like wieners everywhere.
16:05Wieners.
16:05Okay.
16:06Kind of like a cut.
16:07Yeah, no.
16:08I know what you're saying.
16:09Athena is giving director, producer, cinematographer.
16:13Here we go.
16:14And...
16:14Peonies and a blanket.
16:16Action.
16:19Juicy love Dion and Mia Starr.
16:22I'm feeling very nervous.
16:23However, I am just trying to smile and shake my tits.
16:28And action.
16:28Prop Double D would offer free silicone breastplates.
16:31Bitch, why are you crying?
16:33You're getting free titties.
16:34It's just like food stamps, but just with tits.
16:36Oh my God.
16:38She's already getting a couple laughs out of Michelle.
16:40And now I am more nervous.
16:42Juicy, tell us what you're doing.
16:43I am an environmentalist who is against padding.
16:48You are the Greta Thunberg of drag.
16:50Yes.
16:50Looking like Velma from Scooby Doo.
16:53Action.
16:54Drag does not have to be unnatural.
16:57Look at me.
16:57A meaty tuck and bare feet.
17:00Cut.
17:01Shouldn't you have bare feet?
17:04Yeah.
17:05One more time.
17:06Look at me.
17:07A meaty tuck and bare feet.
17:09But...
17:10I'm comfortable.
17:11Cut.
17:12I think you need to do it again and give us...
17:14Here's the truth.
17:16I'm bored.
17:18Oh my God.
17:19Top five words you don't want to hear.
17:21Just have to shake off the nerves. I'm sorry.
17:22You were great at RDR Live.
17:24You know what you're doing.
17:26So...
17:26Do it.
17:28When she says that, the weight on my chest becomes ten times heavier.
17:31Vote no on proper...
17:34I know that Juicy is in her head.
17:36I'm just hoping that she can bring that RDR Live character out.
17:41Padding is not just bad for her...
17:43Juicy girl, get it together girl!
17:45Alright, let's try it again.
17:47Discord. Let's try it. Here we go.
17:49And...
17:49Action!
17:50I'm a drag queen.
17:51For drag queens.
17:53Because who can please a sister...
17:55Better than a sister!
17:58That was really fun.
18:00I like seeing that character come out of you.
18:02I told you I'm here to have fun.
18:03Tell your shoulders that and you'll be good.
18:05A lot of people don't expect me to be funny because I am so elegant and edgy.
18:09Things you don't really associate with humor.
18:12So, this is a moment to show that there is a funny side to Discord.
18:16Okay, Ninicoco, you're up.
18:17The concept is like...
18:19Your drag sister is just not capable and you need a big strong man to do it.
18:23It would be...
18:27I think it was supposed to be a cutscene of her separate from me.
18:32Does this make sense?
18:33No.
18:34So, I'm trying to figure it out.
18:35Where do you want him walking?
18:37Yeah, I think he can...
18:41Honestly, here's what I would do.
18:42I would say...
18:43No.
18:44You're a traditional king.
18:45And then just have him walk up to you.
18:46It doesn't have to be a cutscene.
18:47And you're like...
18:48Ding.
18:48Yeah.
18:48Walk up and land next to her.
18:50Thank you, Discord.
18:51I feel like Discord is just dragging me through this challenge.
18:54I'm just praying that everything comes together and makes sense when we see it on the main stage.
18:59Hello.
19:00Hey.
19:01Tell me your proposition.
19:03Proposition C.
19:04That will add clown to the LGBT.
19:07I'm assuming, Jane, you are for it.
19:09And you borrowed Darlene's shoes.
19:10Yeah!
19:12You're gonna go first, Jane.
19:13Yes.
19:14Here we go.
19:14And...
19:15Action!
19:16I'm Daisy Fun Buttons.
19:17The Teehee community has been marginalized to the sideshow for far too long.
19:23My prep work is paying off.
19:25I'm getting the shots that I need relatively quickly.
19:30And Kenya is so naturally funny and entertaining.
19:35Gagging on my extravaganza, darling!
19:37She's making me laugh, so I'm pretty happy with where we landed.
19:42Oh!
19:42Okay, thank you!
19:45Darlene Mitchell.
19:46Yes.
19:47Is that a stiletto you're wearing?
19:49It is.
19:50Get into it.
19:51I'll spray paint them every color.
19:52Yes, please.
19:53I'm feeling really good going into this.
19:56Like, my character is strong.
19:57The look is wackadoodle.
19:59They like me!
20:01They really, really like me!
20:03Cut!
20:04You are on the precipice of something really good here.
20:08Okay.
20:08Like, create a character here.
20:10Think of Jennifer Coolidge.
20:11You need to go with that, because it could be really fun.
20:15They like me!
20:16They really like me!
20:18Great.
20:19Cut.
20:21So, Vida, we're gonna do your B-roll.
20:23What is it that you want to do?
20:25Okay, what is a B-roll?
20:27You know, like the little vignettes, the little scenes.
20:29Okay, gotcha.
20:30Okay, so, um, Hello World, I'm Vida Starr, we're a renowned drag queen, the house mother.
20:34So, you don't really need B-roll for that, because you're doing that?
20:36Yes.
20:37Okay.
20:38Um...
20:39On the paper, it says rolling bags in a club.
20:42Um...
20:43Yes.
20:43So, let's shoot that.
20:44When we are on set, things are moving fast, very fast.
20:49Just in general, I don't think Vida moves very quickly at very many things.
20:53Action.
20:55Hello World, I'm Vida Starr, world-renowned drag queen and house mother.
21:06Keep going.
21:08Well, that's your call, isn't it?
21:11I'm standing in front of Michelle Visage right now, and I'm nervous as hell.
21:15I plan on forcing props for...
21:17Oops, messed up on that.
21:19I need you to just be passionate.
21:21Sell me on what you're saying.
21:22Calm is ticking, and every time I'm asked to give more energy or, you know, blah, blah,
21:29blah, blah.
21:29I don't just have this...
21:31Hi, I'm Vida.
21:32Like, personality.
21:33Like, no, I'm just very mellow.
21:35Like, I'm just...
21:37Chia.
21:38Um...
21:39If we're gonna knock all of these scenes out that we discussed for Vida's ad, like,
21:43we need to pick up the pace.
21:45Next part.
21:46Nightclub dance floor rolling in money?
21:48Yes.
21:50Rolling in money, um, just money all over.
21:54Like, the race has begun, and we gotta sprint, girl.
21:57So, Vida, we're just about out of time.
21:59So, you can pick one more thing that you really wanna do.
22:03I would choose wisely.
22:07Um...
22:11New day!
22:13Good morning!
22:14Today the judges are gonna watch our political ads, and I'm very excited to see how this turns out.
22:20If this goes all as planned, I feel like I can pull out a win.
22:25This morning, I feel a little unsettled.
22:28I do know that I had some good parts, but I definitely have concerns, if we're judging teams.
22:33How was your statement history?
22:35Discord carried, bitch.
22:36Really?
22:36She was so funny.
22:38After working with Discord in this challenge, it's definitely opened the door to my relationship with her,
22:42even through all the moments where I didn't see eye to eye with her at first.
22:45The one thing that I'm curious to see is Discord and I had this make-out scene.
22:50What?
22:51There was some tongue involved.
22:53Ah!
22:53My mouth was so dry, so I feel so bad for Nini.
22:56Like, you know a cat tongue when they lick the hand?
22:58It was like, that little cost my face.
23:00Ah!
23:00I'm so sorry.
23:02A cat tongue?
23:03What?
23:04What even is that?
23:09I wish I had hair so my ponytail could just be like, ooh.
23:12Yeah.
23:12Now, look at that.
23:12That's too kind, bitch.
23:14Listen, back in 2008, when I did my first pageant, Kennedy Davenport was back there.
23:19And I was like, bitch, throw this tight-ass ponytail in my head right now.
23:23And that bitch yanked my scalp.
23:24Bitch, I know she had that precious hair.
23:26Yeah!
23:26Yeah!
23:27And I was like, well, God, leave!
23:29Kennedy Davenport is a drag royalty.
23:32Well, hello!
23:32From Season 7 and All Stars 3, this is my auntie.
23:38Mia, can you emulate some of her dance moves?
23:40Oh!
23:41You know what?
23:41I can teach you. Come on.
23:42Okay, let go.
23:43Honey, we have the choreographer extraordinaire up in this work room, honey.
23:47Hold your hand.
23:47You go rock, rock, up, and pop.
23:51Oh!
23:52And pull, back, back, pull.
23:55Five, six, seven, go.
23:57We got rock, rock, around, and pop, and pull.
24:01Round, round, round!
24:03Yay!
24:04Yes!
24:05That's going to be our next girl group challenge.
24:07So if you do have to...
24:08Oh, yeah, here's your dollar, girl.
24:12So, like, obviously yesterday we got to have, like, a lot of fun with, like, politics.
24:17But when I moved to Florida, I moved in with my best friend and her brother.
24:23Uh-huh.
24:23And he became radicalized.
24:26One day we were best friends.
24:28Like, basically the next week something just, like, flipped in his brain.
24:31And he, like, fucking hated me and my partner.
24:33I brought the majority of my drag down to Florida with me.
24:37And one day I came home and he destroyed 98% of it.
24:41What the fuck?
24:42Threw it in the pool, shredded it up, destroyed my drum set.
24:45Everything was just, like, fucked.
24:47Just finding pieces of art that you love so much and things that you made yourself.
24:52Not just things I bought, but things that were handcrafted by myself and my partner.
24:56There aren't even words that can describe how that feels.
24:59I can see how someone would easily get radicalized.
25:02Especially in the recent years with what's been going on.
25:04This was a person that I've known their entire life.
25:08And to watch this mental decline happen so quickly by being wrapped up in a, let's call it what it
25:14is, a cult.
25:15Worst part about it is that it's politicians and people in power that are using what we do to create
25:22a false narrative and call us dangerous and make people afraid.
25:25It's all just a smokescreen.
25:26Because it's a lot easier, I think, for people to, like, look at a drag queen and say, that's bad,
25:31than to turn around and say, actually, maybe we need to, like, really overhaul things in a pretty major way.
25:38This happened to us personally in Miami.
25:40We had just been doing drag brunch.
25:42Like, there was nothing but a daytime drag show going on.
25:45And somehow they whipped up this frenzy to get their base really fired up so they could have a platform.
25:50And it was at our expense.
25:52A lot of people are like, well, why don't you just move out?
25:53This is my home.
25:54Right.
25:55I built myself here.
25:56My community is here.
25:57I have lived there my entire life.
25:59And it's not fair to say that Florida is terrible because there's a lot of amazing people there.
26:05So we just got to empower, raise our voice, and make sure that our safety net does not get dissolved.
26:12Well, speaking of red states, Alabama is not a place to be, honey.
26:18Especially for our black ass.
26:19Yes.
26:20So many cases of gay murders and trans people murders within our city is horrible.
26:27And the best thing that we have that we're holding onto in Montgomery is the legacy of the boycott and
26:34the civil rights with Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King.
26:37But other than that, we're not a progressive state at all.
26:39It is not easy living there at all.
26:43It is absolutely horrible.
26:45Hearing the other queens talk about the political climate makes me feel as if I'm not alone.
26:51You're not in this alone because at the end of the day, we are a queer community.
26:55Well, ladies, I love you hoes.
26:57Yes.
26:57This has been a great time together.
27:00But let's keep this energy up, y'all.
27:02We got a runway today.
27:03Yay!
27:05It's sad to see that we're still experiencing so much hate for our community, but we will definitely win.
27:12You can never beat a man in a dress.
27:17Can we do the slave for you choreography, actually?
27:19Yes, go.
27:19Can you show it to me, like, the actual version?
27:22Seven.
27:23Eight.
27:23Eight.
27:25Eight.
27:26Eight.
27:27Eight.
27:27Eight.
27:28Eight.
27:29Eight.
27:31Eight.
27:33If it's Mia and I tonight in the bottom, we're going to make sure to give them a show.
27:40Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race.
27:43She's always happy to reach across the aisle.
27:46It's Michelle Visage.
27:48Yes, Ru, I love to reach across, but you know, I'd much rather reach around.
27:55He puts the D in democracy.
27:57It's Jamal Sims.
27:59And in case you're wondering, I swing left.
28:04He writes the songs that make the whole world lip sync.
28:08It's Leland.
28:09Aw, thank you, Ru.
28:10And I approve this message.
28:13This week, we challenged our queens to put the ass in grassroots politics.
28:19And tonight on the runway, category is I Can See Right Through Ha.
28:24Racers, start your engines and may the best drag queen win.
28:33The category is I Can See Right Through Ha.
28:36Up first, Jane, don't.
28:38You heard of Houdini?
28:40Well, this is face king.
28:43When I started drag, I loved this subversive alternative sensibility.
28:48So I have chosen to do an homage to the greatest club kid of all time, Lee Bowery.
28:56This is sheer excellence.
28:58Can you please her?
29:00She's from the alien cast of Saved by the Bell.
29:04Come on, bitch.
29:05I'm giving you Xenon Girl of the 22nd Century, honey.
29:08My little dress that is pointy, and I have on a skin-tight, perfectly fitted pink catsuit underneath.
29:14You know, to hide on my lady bills.
29:16This bitch ain't biodegradable.
29:19Juicy Love Dion.
29:21I was wondering where my old Rolodex went.
29:24Not only is it see-through, but it's also moving in such a special way.
29:29Completely made of crinoline and thousands of pieces of tulle.
29:33I am obsessed with the unconventional.
29:37Who doesn't love a big pink tulle?
29:40Give me a star.
29:41Ooh, she's a shady bitch.
29:44Y'all know I got a big batch?
29:46Well, I got a big pair of sunglasses, too.
29:48This look is bright, it's vibrant, you can see the skeleton underneath.
29:52Big bones, baby.
29:54Big bones!
29:56Get a load of that astigmatism.
30:00Darlene Mitchell.
30:02Wow.
30:03How much for all the ribs?
30:06This look is inspired by the campiness of Rocky Horror Picture Show meets Franken-Hooker.
30:12And it wouldn't be drag if you didn't have huge fake tits.
30:14So we went for it.
30:17I could see her coccyx.
30:20Vita Von Teese.
30:22Wetter really is better.
30:24I am giving water, couture, goddess, alluring all of the men from the shore to fall into my spell.
30:32A wave across these sexy curves.
30:35That's how you make a splash.
30:38Athena Dion.
30:39Life in plastic.
30:40It's fantastic.
30:42Yes.
30:42I am walking with all the confidence in the world.
30:45It's giving executive realness.
30:47This woman is the HBIC of see-through lamp, honey.
30:51I think she's made herself perfectly clear.
30:55Mikey Meeks.
30:57This is what the whores wear in Seattle.
31:00Mikey Meeks stars in Working Girl.
31:02I'm wearing a see-through business suit because the quality I cherish most in the workplace is transparency.
31:10She has a job to do and she gets it done.
31:12It's a wrap.
31:15Discord Adams.
31:17Wow.
31:18I am a biblically accurate angel.
31:22I am wearing a custom headpiece from my partner that has so many eyes.
31:26I think my walk is fierce.
31:32She's sheer.
31:33She's queer.
31:34Get used to it.
31:35Peenie Coco.
31:37That's butterscotch realness.
31:39This look has my name written all over it.
31:43The sweetest little candy treat that you have ever tasted.
31:46How many licks does it take to get to the center of Nene Coco?
31:49You're about to find out.
31:50I'm gonna get you, sucker.
31:53Sucker? I don't even know it.
31:57Welcome, queens.
31:58It's time to let your voices be heard.
32:01First up, Jane Don't and Kenya Pleaser.
32:05Proposition C.
32:07Add the letter C to the LGBTQIA.
32:10Officially.
32:11Hi, I'm Daisy Fun Buttons, professor of nose honking at the Coima Community Clown College.
32:19As a clown queen, I believe my community has been marginalized to the sideshow for far too long.
32:25Now, it's time for us to leave our big tops and take center ring.
32:32Shouldn't you be able to visit your partner in the hospital after they've been hit by a teeny tiny car
32:37full of people?
32:39Shouldn't health care providers be forced to cover conditions like clown lung, red nose rash, and gonorrhea?
32:47Maybe that last one's just me.
32:49Clown queens are just like you.
32:52We feel pain like you.
32:55We love like you.
32:58We tested positive for gonorrhea, just like you.
33:02Okay, I can't seriously be the only one.
33:04So vote yes on Prop C and send in the clowns.
33:09Oh.
33:11Can somebody just treat my gonorrhea?
33:13This ad was paid for by the Jimbo Institute for Tiggle Bitties!
33:19Hi, I'm Tasha St. James Alexander Dupree Van Michaels, your current reigning Miss International Diva Queen.
33:26And I believe drag should be fierce and not counting around.
33:30For so long, drag bars have been held captive by silly-ass drag queens who prioritize jokes and concepts over
33:37gowns.
33:37If this proposition is passed, there could be a nationwide drag shortage of diva-dom and a 100% terror
33:44on gagging on my extravaganza!
33:47Why wear red nose when you can contour it?
33:50Why are you teasing kids at a birthday party when you need to be teasing that wig?
33:54Every queen should be forced to learn a donkey kick, split, and high kick.
33:58And of course, learn your word!
34:02Vote no for Prop C if you want to stop these silly-ass queens and their experimental makeup.
34:07And physical comedy.
34:08This ad has been brought to you by the Roxy Andrews Fund, and Jake's Monsoon can still catch these hands
34:13organization.
34:13Where my people at?
34:15Hey!
34:17Alright, let's hear from the judges.
34:19So, Jane, I didn't have to give you much direction at all.
34:22You knew what you wanted to do, and you did it.
34:24I love a clown.
34:26I thought your physical comedy in the video was fantastic.
34:29So funny, so ridiculous.
34:33And then this outfit, it's everything that you are.
34:35You're so effing clever.
34:38Now, Miss Kenya, I love this look.
34:41Very Jetsons 2026.
34:44In your proposition, I thought you had a good time with it as well.
34:48You know that girl, so I thought it was really fun.
34:50If I could add one thing, I would just add a little more frustration, right?
34:55That's just in opposition to what Jane was doing.
34:57Up next, it's Juicy Love Dion and Mia Stark.
35:02Proposition Double D.
35:03Make padding, tits, and lace fronts mandatory for all drag queens.
35:06My name is Juicy Love Dion.
35:09I'm an environmentalist, and I believe padding is not just bad for our queens, but bad for our environment.
35:15The unnatural ways of old-world drag queens are ridding our community of comfortable places to sit.
35:21Breast plates don't biodegrade, and lace fronts are ripping apart the foreheads of third-world countries.
35:30Drag does not have to be unnatural.
35:33Look at me, a meaty tuck and bare feet.
35:36Am I still a drag queen?
35:37I don't know, but I'm comfortable and biodegradable.
35:42So, kick off those tights and those shoes and be one with nature.
35:48Vote no on Prop Double D, and let your natural hog body shine.
35:53This message was brought to you by SOS.
35:56Save our sofas.
35:59Hi, I am Mia Starr, the First Lady of the First Baptist Church here in sunny West Palm Beach, Florida.
36:05There must be an end to lazy drag queens who don't pad or take advantage of the silicone that God
36:11has intended us to use.
36:14Prop Double D's would offer free silicone breastplates for all flat-chested little Latin boys in drag.
36:20Why are you crying? You're getting free titties.
36:23It's just like food stamps, but for tits.
36:27Some people think it's okay to leave the house without pads, breasts, or heels.
36:36Vote yes on Proposition Double D's to make padding, boobs, lace fronts, and high heels mandatory for all drag queens.
36:44This message is paid for by WWDD.
36:47What would Golly do?
36:51So, Juicy, I definitely think you needed to go further with it.
36:56You could have looked dowtier and brought it really back to nature if that's really what you were going for.
37:02Also, you're a dancer, so you're physical, and I would have just liked to have seen you do more of
37:07that and sell it in that way.
37:09But tonight, you need to walk the Met Gala red carpet in this look.
37:13You know, this is truly unbelievable. It's just an absolute masterpiece.
37:18Mia, what I loved about what you did was you brought a character, and I felt like she was fully
37:22realized.
37:23I've written down, show us your tits.
37:26Because you keep talking about them. I wanted to see titties.
37:30Everything could have just been exaggerated. Even tonight, your look, you exaggerated the sunglasses.
37:35So everything about this should have been just exaggerated.
37:37Up next, Darlene Mitchell and Vita Von Teese.
37:42Proposition for real. Ban all social media and liquids.
37:48Hi there. I'm Darlene Mitchell, and I'm a business owner.
37:53All from the comfort of my home.
37:56Prop for real is trying to strip me of my rights.
38:00This proposition wants me to go outside? What the heck? Meet real people?
38:08And touch germs? As if.
38:12All you need to be a queen is a phone, a super cute bedroom, and a special talent.
38:21Oh my. In that spot.
38:23Okay.
38:24Real friends are so outdated. And so is cash.
38:29Daddy Pig 69 just sent me $500.
38:34They like me. They really like me.
38:39Vote no on Prop for real. Because nothing is really real.
38:47This message was paid for by showing my home.
38:52Hello, world. I'm Vita Star, world-renowned drag queen and house mother.
39:01The problem here are social media queens who are messing up our way of life by interfering with our money
39:07and our tips.
39:09Real drag queens get out and grind to make money.
39:12They're the ones taking it easy by rolling out of bed while I'm rolling in dirty, filthy cash.
39:20I plan on enforcing Prop for real by challenging social media queens to get up, get out, and get active.
39:28Hello? Why are you looking at that online fantasy with the fantasies right in front of you?
39:33Why just be a social media queen when you can be queen of the scene?
39:38Vote yes on Prop for real.
39:41This message was paid for by me, ho.
39:45All right, let's go to the judges.
39:46Darlene, from the moment I saw your character, I knew who that was.
39:51It just felt so real, so I commend you on that. Thank you.
39:54Really funny. Really stupid. I love Pig Daddy 69.
40:00Fantastic.
40:01And then on the runway tonight, I'm so proud of you not wearing those ugly-ass witchy clunkers.
40:07It's kind of Rocky Horror meets just Dementic.
40:10And I think this was really, really fun.
40:12Vita, this look is so special. I love all the colors and the way that it's reflecting the light. It's
40:17really nice.
40:18However, fitting the brief, I would say 80%.
40:20And your proposition. It just needed to be more.
40:24The best part was seeing Darlene, and that's not good.
40:28One thing I will say, I wanted to see you working hard for the money. Darlene was, like, making it
40:33seem so easy just so we had that opposition.
40:35You've got to deconstruct what this proposition really is all about.
40:39You know, to argue the difference between a look queen and a real queen who has done the hard yards.
40:45And I didn't see that comparison.
40:52All right, up next, it's Athena Dion and Mikey Meeks.
40:56Proposition 6969. Oppose all foreign trade.
41:00Indeed.
41:02Hello, America. My name is Connie Cumminside from the great state of Alaska.
41:07I'm a mother, I'm a tucker, and I'm a God-fearing citizen.
41:12But America, do you know what else I fear?
41:16Foreign trade.
41:18We have allowed foreign trade onto our streets and into our sheets, and they have diluted and polluted our homegrown,
41:27born-and-bred all-American trade.
41:30Trade should be as American as a wiener on a Wonder Bread.
41:34Too often, I lie awake at night with visions of foreign trade sliding into my beloved, precious country.
41:44They must be stopped!
41:46Vote, yes, and plug our borders and breed our trade the American way.
41:51Paid for by the Women Against Trade Foundation.
41:57Chorizo, bratwurst, Vienna sausage. What do these have in common?
42:02Foreign trade, girl.
42:05Hey, what's up? I'm concerned American citizen, Stephanie Miller.
42:09But you can call me Lollipop.
42:13Prop 6969 would outlaw all relations with international trade.
42:17To that I say, no.
42:20And in Spanish, no.
42:25Imagine all the contributions we'd miss out on.
42:29Pierre.
42:32Bruno.
42:33To the Bay.
42:35And Mark.
42:37He's from Canada.
42:39Get a load of that moose knuckle.
42:42Supporters of the bill have a lack of taste.
42:45Whereas women like myself want to try every flavor.
42:50Mmm.
42:52Abrogado.
42:55I'm Lollipop, and I'm for foreskin.
42:59Paid for by the International Society of Party Girls.
43:03And Mark.
43:04Yum!
43:08Athena, I think this tonight is really beautiful.
43:11What I love most about it is the gold lining on the inside of that.
43:15It's just another level.
43:17Athena, while I don't agree with your platform, I thought you killed this ad.
43:22I thought the world that you built was easy to understand, and I think you executed it just perfectly.
43:28Mikey, this look tonight is super fun. Are you a doctor?
43:31I'm a she-e-o, nine to five, and then a slut, five to nine.
43:35Yep.
43:36Your character was so thought out.
43:38Foreign trade is a platform I can get behind, and I have.
43:44You knew exactly what you wanted to do.
43:47It absolutely paid off.
43:48It was just funny.
43:50That no, and in Spanish, no, took me out.
43:53Took me completely out.
43:54Mikey, bitch, you turned it.
43:56You understood what it was your proposition was all about.
44:01Loved it.
44:02Thank you, Rich.
44:03Next up, Discord Adams and Nene Coco.
44:07Proposition Kiki.
44:08Band Kaikai between drag queens.
44:12Hi, I'm Lydia Licora, and I'm a drag queen for drag queens, on drag queens, and inside of drag queens.
44:21And I'm voting no on Proposition Kiki, because who can please a sister better than a sister?
44:30Are you doing drag on a budget?
44:33Date a sister!
44:35Double your wardrobe overnight.
44:38Tired of men not being able to find that spot?
44:42Date a sister!
44:45Yeah.
44:47My opponent believes drag on drag luck is unnatural.
44:52And if this is unnatural, luck of God.
44:57Vote no on Proposition Kiki.
45:00And remember, date a sister!
45:03This ad was paid off by the Queen on Queen Coalition.
45:06Sister for sisters, by sisters, and lesbian lovers last longer.
45:09Hi, heathens.
45:10I'm Trisha Nutachi, a drag traditionalist.
45:13I believe a drag queen is only as strong as the king by her side.
45:19Queens Kaikaiing with other queens is unnatural, impure, and absolutely sickening.
45:25And not in a fierce way.
45:27Proposition Kiki grants queens the right to be just friends.
45:31Not friends with benefits.
45:34Kaikaiing with your sister leads to all kinds of messy situations.
45:37If your girly swirly takes a peek as you untuck after the gig, remember, sister dick makes you sick.
45:46Who's gonna carry all your shit?
45:47That skinny bitch?
45:49No.
45:50Your traditional king.
45:53So vote yes on Proposition Kiki to protect the sanctity of one queen and one king.
45:59Keep it clean.
46:01No queen on queen.
46:03This ad was paid for by the Chastity Belt Tugging Pants Supply Co.
46:08Discord, tonight, I think this is beautiful. Gaga's gonna see this and absolutely love it.
46:12I feel like it's another Met Gala moment. This is gorgeous.
46:16I think your character was really fun, and what I loved about it, it's unlike anything we've seen from you.
46:23So I thought that was really smart of you to do that.
46:25The whisper, it acted as a hook. I think that it drove the point home.
46:29This is a great night for you. You've sort of mingled in the middle.
46:33Chronically safe.
46:34Yeah, yeah. But you really stepped ahead.
46:37NeNe, you like to bring fashion that has a point of view to it all the time.
46:41I love the headpiece coming off as an accessory. The reveal of the makeup and the face was just fantastic.
46:47Your video was hilarious. There are some one-liners in there that were so funny.
46:53I didn't peg you for a trad wife situation, and here we are.
46:57You two had a great duo, and I really enjoyed it.
47:00Thank you so much. Good job.
47:01Both of you did very well tonight.
47:04Thank you, Queens. I think we've heard enough.
47:06While you untuck backstage, the judges and I will deliberate.
47:13Welcome back, Queens. I've made some decisions.
47:20Darlene Mitchell, you gave the judges an election that lasted longer than four hours.
47:28Mikey Meeks, your love for international trade had us bent over in laughter.
47:36Jane, don't. Tonight, you took us to clown town, and we loved it.
47:47Mikey Meeks, contractulations, you're the winner of this week's challenge.
47:53Yes, Mikey.
47:56Oh, fuck. I just had to fight for my life last week, and now my first time in the top,
48:01I win the challenge.
48:03Oh, it just feels so good.
48:06You've won a cash tip of $5,000.
48:09Thank you so much.
48:11Oh, man, it's so cool.
48:14It's so cool.
48:17Mia Star.
48:19Tonight, your double D's were not big enough.
48:24Juicy Love Dion.
48:25Tonight, your double D's fell flat.
48:30Vida Vontis.
48:31Tonight, your political ad did not connect with the voters.
48:41Juicy, Vida.
48:44I'm sorry, my dears, but you are both up for elimination.
48:51Mia, you and the rest of the queens are safe. You may join the other girls.
48:56Vida versus Juicy, two people I thought were going to make it to the end. I don't even want to
49:01watch this.
49:02Oh, my God.
49:04Two queens, stand before me.
49:06This is crazy, girl.
49:08I'm shocked that only one of us is going to continue on in the competition, but I know what I
49:13have to do.
49:13Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and save yourself from elimination.
49:24The time has come for you to lip sync for your life.
49:35It does not feel good going against Juicy, one of the best performers here.
49:42But I'm ready to fight. I am ready to prove that I should be here.
49:47So let's just get at it.
49:51Good luck and don't fuck it up.
50:08I'm not here for long. Catch me or I go. Houdini, I come and I go.
50:14Grove, you got the right to please me. Everybody knows. Catch me or I go. Houdini.
50:20Time is passing like a solar eclipse.
50:24See, I'm watching and you blow me a kiss.
50:28Maybe you could be the one to make me stay.
50:32Everything you hear is sounding so sweet.
50:35But do you practice everything that you preach?
50:39If you got it, baby, give it to me.
50:42They say I come and I go.
50:44Tell me all the ways you need me. I'm not here for long.
50:48Catch me or I go. Houdini, I come and I go.
50:52I can't keep my eyes off me.
50:55Nita is holding her own honey.
50:56But Juicy is not gonna let this one slip through her fingers.
51:01Maybe you could be the one to make me stay.
51:04One to make me stay.
51:16I'm not here for long.
51:17The one to make me stay.
51:19I'm not here for long.
51:20Tell me all the ways you need me. I'm not here for long.
51:24Catch me or I go. Houdini, I'm not here for long.
51:30Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
51:31Catch me or go Houdini
51:45Catch me or go Houdini
51:52Queens, I've made my decision
52:05Juicy love Dion, Shantae you stay
52:16You may join the other girls
52:36Vita Von T. Starr, you've made Mamoru and Montgomery, Alabama very proud
52:44Now, sashay away
52:47Thank you
52:51I love y'all
52:56Final words
52:59Vita, Vita, Vita
53:00If you wanna Vita
53:03I love y'all
53:05I love you Vita
53:08I am feeling very sad but fulfilled at the same time
53:13This emotion that I'm feeling right now is just a huge sense of gratitude
53:18Oh God, I'm definitely taking a part of each one of those girls back with me
53:24They are my sisters and I love them dearly and I miss them already
53:27I miss them already
53:33Condragulations Queens
53:34And remember, if you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else?
53:38Can I get an amen up in here?
53:40Amen
53:40Alright, now let the music play
53:42Next time on RuPaul's Drag Race
53:43You'll be starring in the Snatch Game of Love Island
53:48What's your worst habit?
53:50I'm no stranger to a dirty Sanchez
53:54Hello, I am the Pope
53:59You're into big black women?
54:00Absolutely
54:01Have you ever fucked one of them?
54:03Girl, where are the jokes?
54:06Your impersonation was really honest, sweet, and it was really enjoyable
54:11But at this point in the competition, we need to see you
54:17Insert rattlesnakes
54:19Right now
