00:11Well, I'm not here to fuck spiders.
00:15My name is Art Simone, I'm a fabulous professional drag queen from Melbourne, Australia.
00:20Art Simone is technicolour, effervescent and very ochre.
00:24God, we're fucking here, yeah!
00:26Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
00:28I am really well known on the drag scene.
00:31I love drag so much, I love spreading it right through the world.
00:34Like herpes.
00:35Well, my hair's already falling out, I'm getting fucked, alright?
00:37I'm a fucking rude girl now.
00:46That's alright, it's just like being back in lockdown.
00:50Let's do it. Buckle up, bitches.
00:54What the bloody hell's going on around here?
01:00My name is Maxie Shields, I am 46 years old and I'm from Sydney, Australia.
01:06Maxie is a dickhead on stage, but still sexy, with my big boobs, big bum.
01:12My biggest strength is that I don't fucking shut up.
01:15Hey, Maxie!
01:17Oh, not you, you dumbass!
01:20Oh my god, how the fuck are you?
01:23Art Simone, my goodness.
01:26She's very polished, huge social media presence.
01:29I wonder if that translates from social media to television.
01:32Oh my god, we're the first two!
01:33I know!
01:34For now.
01:40But the pillows ladies, mama's a hoe and she's going in dry.
01:45I am Jojo's a hoe, I am 30 years old, and I am a proud Virupai Waramaya queen.
01:51But I'm going to give you first in the nation real and full of dick.
01:55Hey!
01:56Jesus!
01:59We've got as close as we can get with those tips.
02:01Hi.
02:02Jojo's like a hooker-tone housewife.
02:04Oh, I had to do that as well.
02:05Yeah, straddle it, babe.
02:07So, lady, polished until she opens her mouth and then I sound like a lesbian truck driver.
02:12I'm hungry.
02:13Can't wait to see some kewi girls.
02:15No.
02:20I don't know who that is.
02:21I was a model before the accident.
02:26I'm Elektra Shock, I'm 28 years old from Tamaki Makoto, New Zealand.
02:30I don't know who's more past me or are we.
02:34Best thing about Elektra Shock, she's a bit of everything.
02:37I'm a bitch with heart.
02:39Elektra Shock is expensive.
02:43I think I'm really pretty in drag.
02:45Hello, Elektra!
02:49You're standing on your chiffon.
02:51I've never heard of Elektra, so I don't exactly know what to expect.
02:54So, where are you from?
02:55I'm from Auckland.
02:56Oh, thank you.
02:58Love that.
02:59I'm from Melbourne.
03:00Lovely, gorgeous.
03:00I'm from Sydney.
03:01I lived in Sydney.
03:02Oh, why?
03:03I changed that, I'm a dancer, so I went to her full time.
03:05How long have you been doing drag for?
03:08Eight years.
03:09Eight years in Sydney.
03:10No, no, no.
03:11Eight years in drag.
03:12Eight years in drag.
03:14Beautiful.
03:16The other queens really need to not underestimate me.
03:18I'm not here to fuck about.
03:22Hey!
03:24Who's ready to paint the town?
03:25Scarlet.
03:27I'm Scarlet Adams.
03:28I'm 27 years old and I am from Borloo, Brackets, Perth, Western Australia.
03:32That's a nice helmet.
03:34I want the other queens to know that I am a fierce fashion bitch and I am ready for the
03:38wrong way.
03:40No, what's your drag?
03:41What is your drag?
03:41I don't know you girls.
03:43I'm a burlesque performer and I come from a dance background.
03:47Two dancers.
03:48Come on, rivalry.
03:49There's no rivalry.
03:50Okay.
03:51There's no rivalry.
03:53I mean, look at us.
03:59Yeah!
04:01Oh my good gay girly god, you guys.
04:03This is what the bus is about.
04:06Sorry I lied, Sydney.
04:08My name is Coco Jumbo.
04:09I'm 29 years old.
04:10I am from Sydney.
04:11Ooh la la.
04:13I've got the community under my belt and I'm loving it.
04:15I'm fierce, I'm fat, and I'm fabulous bitch.
04:20Mwah!
04:20Cam!
04:21Thank you, you too.
04:22Coco is like, mama, she's gorgeous.
04:24Like, that is a woman.
04:25Hi.
04:26Electra.
04:28Coco Jumbo.
04:33Me too.
04:35Electra's wig was so thirsty, it could have done with a glass of water.
04:37Full glass, a full gallon, a litre, everything.
04:40Just the whole ocean, really.
04:46How delightful he can.
04:50Shit.
04:51Bossy's here.
04:53Kia ora, my name is Ketamine.
04:55I am 34 years old from Auckland, New Zealand.
04:59Ketamine is a larger than life party crown.
05:05She's so skinny.
05:06For my day job, I own a Calootsie Cabaret in Auckland with my best friend, Anita Wiglet.
05:11So, everyone knows I'm a fabulous bitch.
05:14Oh, that's Electra shot, you old clut.
05:17Well, first, Electra walks in and I recognise Electra.
05:20And then, Kidda walks into the workroom.
05:22I'm like...
05:23Oh, I have a question.
05:24So, oh, Calootsie, this mum, she worked at Calootsie.
05:28She does.
05:29Wait, does that make you her boss?
05:31Well, yeah.
05:33You want a job when you get mad, fuck off, eh?
05:36I hope she hasn't been pinching from costume racks, because she'll get mad now.
05:41Now, Kidda, I see you here, but I feel like there's half, like, another person that usually is with you.
05:45I only see you by yourself.
05:47Oh, my God.
05:47Oh, yeah.
05:47I mean, ultimately, people know us as Kidda and Anita, but obviously, emphasis on my name being the first one.
05:54It's nice to be doing something without her, you know?
05:56Finally.
05:58I figured when I take all my costumes that I might as well remove the coattails, you know?
06:05I hope she doesn't fucking walk in here.
06:08Oh, my God.
06:09Oh, God, I hope she done.
06:10Oh, my God, yeah.
06:18Oh, there you go.
06:19You can't kill a cockroach.
06:23Why are you a cockroach?
06:26I'm et cetera, et cetera.
06:28I'm 22 years old, and I'm from Sydney, Australia.
06:33I like to describe myself as a glamour bug.
06:35Kind of like the 50s and 60s golden era of Hollywood on crack.
06:39Your antlers falling down, darling.
06:41Oh, there you go.
06:44Let's help it, please.
06:46I can't take her seriously.
06:48Can't wait to get out the bug spray and send that bitch back and...
06:51Do they have bugs this big in New Zealand?
06:53Oh, girl.
06:54Usually we stank them out.
06:56I'm the youngest one, and because of that, maybe some of them probably don't see me as much of a
07:00threat.
07:01When she walked in with a cockroach outfit on, I was like...
07:04But she looked really good, even as a cockroach, the bitch.
07:07And she is half my age.
07:11I don't really mind.
07:12At the end of the day, I'm really in this to win, and I'm not going to let some old
07:16man in a dress stand in my way.
07:20Hey!
07:23It's time to wiggle it!
07:25Oh, no.
07:27Honestly.
07:32Okay.
07:33My name is Anita Wiggler.
07:34I'm from a little town called Auckland, New Zealand, and I'm 31 years old.
07:37Although I look at least 40.
07:42Anita Wiggler, I kind of liken her as your favourite drunk aunt at Christmas.
07:46Always a good time, but a smidge of embarrassing.
07:54Electra, both your bosses are in here.
07:56Hi.
07:57Yeah, I'm not at work.
07:58Hello.
08:01Good to see you.
08:02Well, if you were at work, you'd still be doing nothing.
08:05Competing alongside Keita and Electra is such an interesting experience.
08:08So Keita is obviously my best friend, my business partner, and Electra, no matter what happens at the end of
08:13the day, I'll still get back to being a boss.
08:15So, Keita, do you want to say what you said earlier about Anita?
08:24I want to describe a Keita, when she feels threatened, she has to bring other people down, so let's hear
08:28it.
08:30But now you're here, and I'm really happy about it.
08:33And what did you say about coattails?
08:35Oh, that you ride my coattails, but I mean, the world knows that.
08:37The world knows that!
08:43Oh!
08:45I can't see this mark anywhere.
08:48I already know, it's way up near the front.
08:51Looks like we're going to need a bigger locker for this hat.
08:54Well, my name is Karen from finance.
08:56I am 32 years old, from Melbourne.
08:58Karen's like a middle-aged bookkeeper from the outer suburbs of Melbourne.
09:02Queen of corporate.
09:03The living office legend.
09:04I love Karen.
09:06Fucking love the outfit she's wearing.
09:07I'm gonna take it.
09:08She took my lane, it's only fair I take her costume.
09:11Hi!
09:12How's it going?
09:13Girl, you look amazing.
09:14This is true camp, give me a spin.
09:19Is this really happening?
09:21Oh my god.
09:22Oh my god, this is nuts.
09:24Good day, good day, good day!
09:27Hello!
09:29Oh my god!
09:31Good day, good day, good day!
09:35RuPaul is standing across the room from me.
09:37I'm about to shit my pants.
09:40Condragulations.
09:41You have made it to RuPaul's Drag Race.

10:53the ferocity of Black Widow,
10:55and the Adam's apple of Chris Hemsworth.
11:00So, ladies, are you ready to serve up some major drama mama?
11:05Yeah!

11:23You brought me a snack.
11:25I love that.
11:25Good dinner and dessert.
11:26That's what I like.
11:27Fabulous.
11:28Taika, you took the words right out of my mouth.
11:31Alright, now it's time for you to read some lines.
11:33Oh, did I mention that your character is from the planet Thickening?
11:37She has a thickening accent.
11:41Action.

11:44You're our only hope.

12:00Oh my god, I love it.
12:02Alright!
12:02Hello!
12:05Maxi Shield in the house.
12:07Say hello to my crew.
12:07There I am.
12:10Maxi, you're gonna put somebody's eyes out with those things.
12:12Yes, they are.
12:16What we're gonna do is we're gonna give you a screen test.
12:18But before we do that, we're gonna run you through a series of emotions
12:21just to warm up your acting chops.
12:25Show me you having an orgasm.
12:30Oh!
12:34Okay, I've finished.
12:38Orgasming in front of RuPaul.
12:39Wow!
12:40You can say you've done it all now, haven't you?
12:44Uh, Sean, do you want to give her the clap?
12:46Action.
12:47Thank you, bottom of the bottom of my heart,
12:50to have our planet and thy three.
12:56Well done, darling. Take a bow. Take a bow, darling.

13:04Joe Joe's a hoe.
13:05Hi there.
13:07Never fuck a sister.
13:09Hi.
13:12Picture on the other hand, like, I'd colonize their columns.
13:15Show me angry.
13:17Keep it moving. This is a moving motion picture.
13:21I'm mad!
13:23I'm so mad!

13:28Oh, it's very subtle.

13:53Coco Jumbo.
13:55I'm a little bitty child.
13:57I need my doll.
13:59Give me my doll.
14:01You better give me my doll, Sean.
14:04Show me the hat. Where the money at?
14:05You got some money for me?
14:07Et cetera, et cetera.

14:18Someone's gotta find it.
14:22Get a mean party.
14:24Action.
14:24Help us there, Lady Lancelot.
14:26You're our only hope. Seriously.
14:29So, Tyga, what do you think?
14:31Okay, that's enough.
14:33Anita Wiglip.
14:34Let's start with anger.
14:38It's kind of a...
14:39Let's just cool down for a minute.
14:41The happiest day of your life.
14:43The happiest day of your life.
14:46That looks a lot like your anger.
14:49You got anything else?
14:50Okay.
14:55Electra Shock screamed that creature out of your body.
14:59Help!
15:03Help!
15:05Help!
15:08Is it out?
15:10I think the tip is still in there.
15:17Ruth seems to be having a great time and all that does is feed my energy and lets me go
15:21to the next level.
15:22Two ladies and the lights.
15:24Three bitches!
15:25Ha ha ha ha!
15:27So I just...
15:28Give it all.
15:29He has...

15:32Ha ha ha ha ha!
15:35Karen from Thynance.
15:37I want you to start dancing and if you stop dancing, the room will explode.
15:42Okay, it's five hours later and you're still dancing.
15:45Dance, Karen, dance!
15:47Dance!
15:49What's that last line again?
15:52Steal a thief, steal a thief, see Fior.
15:54Ha ha ha ha!
15:55Cut!
15:57Wonderful stuff ladies.
15:59Now that's a wrap.

16:04Well, the verdict is in.
16:06Tiger, would you do the honors please?
16:08And the winner of today's mini challenge is...
16:15Electra Shock!
16:16Wow!
16:18Condragulations, Electra!
16:20Thank you!
16:20I got condragulates!
16:21You've won a dazzling necklace set from Fierce Drag Jewels.
16:26Wow!
16:27I won the mini challenge!
16:30Woo!
16:31First day, first mini challenge that I won.
16:33Thank you!
16:34Oh, constellation prize for that mug.
16:37Bless.
16:38Wow!
16:39Racers, now that we've seen you act the fool...
16:44It's time to dig a little deeper.
16:47For your very first maxi challenge, we're throwing a get-to-know-ya ball.
16:52Oh!
16:53Hey!
16:54That's good!
16:55You need to serve two looks on the runway.
16:59First category is...
17:02Born naked.
17:03Oh!
17:05Yes, darling, a nude drag illusion.
17:08Second category is...
17:09No place like home.
17:12Yes!
17:13A look inspired by your hometown.
17:16Now, you only get one chance to make a first impression.
17:20So bring it to the runway.
17:21Runway!
17:22Run, run, run, runway!
17:25Racers, start your engines.
17:28And may the best drag queen...
17:30Win!
17:36Everyone is scrambling!
17:38Everybody, fuck off!
17:40Everyone is scrambling to find a space.
17:42Thanks, this one!
17:43Is this a spot?
17:44Fair enough wig heads.
17:46Ah!
17:47It's a sexual wig!
17:47It's sanitized!
17:49Who's got a red badge?
17:50Are these rats gonna hold all these costumes?
17:52Ew!
17:53What are you doing?
17:54I'm licking the wall to claim it.
17:57Yes!
17:58This is gonna be like an orgasm.
18:01Oh my god, I'm so excited to see everyone, like, get out of drag.
18:04I'm curious to see, um, what Anita looks like.
18:07Oh!
18:09There goes the lashes!
18:10I mean, the nose is quite a defining feature.
18:12I wonder what it looks like without the contour.
18:14Excuse me!
18:15Ooh!
18:16It's a bit of trade.
18:18Scarlet's quite nice.
18:19And Caucasian got back.
18:20Like, that's a booty.
18:22Scarlet's pretty cute.
18:23Like, cute for Perth.
18:24Other places, not so much.
18:27Oh!
18:28Rita!
18:29He's a man!
18:31So much cooler!
18:33Maxi Shield is 100% the tradie of the season.
18:37Okay!
18:38Get him out!
18:38It's amazing what heavy cosmetics can do for a gal.
18:41That's pretty impressive.
18:43I've seen Maxi out of drag.
18:45She looks like a truck driver.
18:46Such a truck driver.
18:47And then in drag she looks like a truck.
18:48Thug.
18:51Which makeup station's free?
18:52None of them.
18:53Excellent!
18:54Okay!
18:54You can't do that.
18:55Aw!
18:56I don't worry, you won't make it for long.
18:59I'll keep it warm for you.
19:00I'll take it, I'll take it.
19:01Anita out of drag reminds me of Kiwi Herman.
19:03Yeah!
19:04There, I said it!
19:06Are you surprised I liked her one?
19:07I fucking am.
19:09Where is she?
19:10I can't even recognise her out of drag.
19:15That's what she gets for judging a book by its cover, I guess.
19:26I'm shooketh at you club.
19:27Oh!
19:28I don't have my eyebrow concealing glasses on.
19:31Oh my god!
19:35She's like a gay Ali G.
19:37Clear lenses, no prescription.
19:40Who's toughest competition tomorrow?
19:41My bets are on you, Elektra.
19:44Or did I want a mini challenge?
19:45Well, you know.
19:46Never really felt like an underdog in a room before, but I definitely do in this one.
19:50I think you could be the dark horse.
19:52The dark horse.
19:53Shit.
19:54Unlike one.
19:54No.
19:55I know I have the skills and the talent to back up my performance, but I definitely don't
19:59have the reputation that some of these queens have.
20:10It's a new day in the workroom and we have to do two runway looks today.
20:18Look at you all organised and shit.
20:20I'm so not.
20:21One is Born Naked and then the second is No Place Like Home.
20:24What are you doing for Hometown?
20:25I'm going to be like a drunk girl at the Melbourne Cup.
20:28I love that.
20:29And I just hope it pays off.
20:31I'm excited to finally do a runway.
20:33This competition I want to be top on every single week.
20:40What are you wearing today for Hometown?
20:42I am dripping in fab originality today.
20:45I'm excited to see it.
20:47Yeah.
20:47I was born in Melbourne.
20:48We moved around a lot.
20:49You know, I've lived on a mission in WA for like 12 months.
20:53What's the mission?
20:53The best way to describe it was like back in the day, it was like a concentration camp
20:57for black people.
20:58One thing that I've struggled with like throughout my life is my connection to my culture.
21:05It was one of those things that I didn't like because it made me stand out.
21:10Each town, like on the outer edges of that town would be missions where the black people
21:14would live and they weren't allowed to go into town.
21:16You needed permission to leave the mission.
21:18I never really had to worry about people getting to the fact that I'm gay because the
21:21first thing they saw was the colour of my skin.
21:23So that was their first point of attack.
21:25With my hometown look, it's not so much indicative of Newcastle.
21:30It's more of indicative of my culture.
21:33It's not a point of shame anymore.
21:34It's something that I'm proud of.
21:35It's one of the many things that make me who I am.
21:39That's really great.
21:40It's like an initial, like I'm here.
21:42Here's my story.
21:44Here's what I'm about.
21:48Controversial question.
21:49Born naked.
21:50Yeah.
21:51Is that something that's like new to you, scary to you?
21:54The concept is scary.
21:55Very scary.
21:56My whole life I have struggled with my weight.
22:00I had zero self-confidence.
22:02I was saving some money and decided to have gastric sleeve surgery.
22:05I've had to do that my entire life, is learn to be happy.
22:08But now I'm just kind of happier, I guess.
22:11When you've spent 33 years of your life being that person, your mind just doesn't shift straight away.
22:18I've still got a journey to go on.
22:19Being nude is like one of the most like...
22:21Wait, but you know what?
22:22I would never want to see you naked either.
22:24You naked bitch!
22:33How do you feel about competing against Keita?
22:38Usually we work together so much because of our businesses and our shows together, but maybe it's because we're branded
22:42as Keita and Anita.
22:43I don't know, it always feels like a little bit like I'm kind of her sidekick.
22:48So, Anita.
22:49Yeah?
22:50If you're both in the bottom two today, who's going home?
22:54Ooh.
22:56Well, that'll just depend on the lip sync song.
22:58Keita.
22:59Yeah?
22:59Who's going home?
23:01Anita.
23:05If Anita and I were both to lip sync for our lives, I would kick her ass.
23:10If Keita goes home first, I worry that it might give her a bit of doubt in her life about
23:15our duo.
23:16About in terms of her not feeling as good potentially.
23:19I believe Keita is standing by me.
23:20But taking zero presence in this competition, it's time for me to shine.
23:27No!
23:28We're putting the costume on and fuck.
23:33The unthinkable happens.
23:35Full back door blowout.
23:37Fucking Scarlett's outfit ripped.
23:41It's got the vibe, like it's born naked, like not born ripped open.
23:46Yeah, she's going to be serving C-section today on the runway.
23:52This is our first runway.
23:55And something like this happens, like this could send me to the bottom.
24:02Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under.
24:06Michelle Visage.
24:07Now, I hear you're getting to know your way around.
24:10Fun Down Under fact, Australia was originally a penal colony.
24:15Well, then you should fit right in.
24:17And the lovely and laughable Reese Nicholson.
24:21Welcome to the family, Reese.
24:23Well, thank you so much.
24:24But I'm confused.
24:25Do I call you father or mother?
24:27Call me the one who signs your checks.
24:29Oh, so I call you daddy.
24:32And our extra special guest judge is...
24:37RuPaul?
24:39Wait, now what are you doing there?
24:41Didn't you hear?
24:42A dingo ate my makeup.
24:44What?
24:45Darling, my makeup got lost in transit.
24:47Mr. Paul, are you really going to do the whole show out of drag?
24:51You got a problem with that, Miss Paul.
24:53Maybe it's the jet lag, but I love it.
24:57Would you mind if I watched from over there?
25:00Be my guest.
25:03Okay, here we go.
25:05This week, we challenged our queens to introduce themselves with two looks.
25:10Racers, start your engines.
25:12And may the best drag queen win.
25:16The category is Born Naked.
25:20Of course, Scarlet Adams.
25:24For my Born Naked look, I'm showing off my new designer vagina.
25:27That's right, baby.
25:28I'm ready to flash my gash.
25:30Oh.
25:31Her name is Scarlet Vulva.
25:33I wanted to give them a full naked illusion head-to-toe silicone prosthetic catsuits.
25:39So much for the illusion.
25:40Anatomy, Barbie.
25:42This is bringing back mammary.
25:44Mammary.
25:45Up next, Maxi Shield.
25:47I am serving you 90s Madonna Vogue with her see-through trench coat.
25:53That's a little nippy out, don't you think?
25:55Put someone's eye out.
25:57Definitely channeling Madonna as I walked out.
25:59Someone says to her, she can't, she does.
26:01That's how I see my drag.
26:03But where does she keep her key?
26:07Next, Electra Shocks.
26:09I decided to do a take on what of Rue's first drag looks.
26:12The shoulder pads with the matching earrings with a bit of Electra glamour.
26:16Her shoulder pads are back.
26:17Uh-huh.
26:17It's nice to see.
26:18I feel great.
26:19My body's banging, I've got my proportions right.
26:21It's Rue 2.0.
26:23Just when you're doing some dusting around the house.
26:25Yes.
26:26Coco Jumbo.
26:28Born Naked expresses how much I do hide behind my drag.
26:31I've got big drag eyes covering my tits.
26:34Big pair of lips covering my poo-fae.
26:36Them heels have eyes.
26:39And two earrings made out of jewelry from some of the best drag queens in Sydney.
26:44Lick your lips, darling.
26:45Both sets.
26:48Et cetera, et cetera.
26:50I use the gender marker non-binary.
26:52So I'm channeling non-binary finery.
26:56It's a conflict between my femininity and masculinity.
26:59And I'm feeling really beautiful.
27:01Like, honey, I just mooned Rue Paul.
27:04Look at that.
27:05Yeah, I'll just get that for you.
27:07Don't worry.
27:09Oh, oh.
27:10Jojo's a hoe.
27:11For Born Naked, my charisma, uniqueness, and talent is pre-colonization goddess.
27:15Someone's a natural brunette.
27:18Well, we know she's not a Brazilian queen.
27:20I think she's from the bush.
27:22I feel strong.
27:24And I feel absolutely fabulous.
27:26I get to represent my culture.
27:27And that makes me so happy.
27:29I can see her out back.
27:31Karen from finance.
27:33This is a first for Karen from finance.
27:35She is very conservative when it comes to showing off her body.
27:37You know, Karen wore this to the company Christmas party.
27:41That ass photocopied beautifully.
27:43Yes.
27:47Oh!
27:48She's got a glittering.
27:52Up next, Anita Wigley.
27:55With my looks, I like to create a character.
27:58So for Born Naked, I thought of the original Naked Lady Eve.
28:01You should eat the snakes in other places.
28:03Put a pin in the ass.
28:04Don't eat that apple!
28:06Hey, we've all been tricked by a snake before.
28:07Oh, honey.
28:09My anagonda don't.
28:11Oh.
28:13He do me.
28:15Born Naked.
28:17I've never been comfortable nude.
28:19But I am loving this look.
28:21I'm wearing a cute nude illusion bodysuit with my fluffy pink balls hanging between my legs.
28:26This look is very ballsy.
28:28I must say, I do love balls slapping on my ass.
28:31Wow.
28:33Art Simone.
28:35My Born Naked look today is all about showing me as not just like a campy comedy queen.
28:40That I'm edgy and an out of the box.
28:42Only took her half the time to get ready.
28:44I know Art and she actually is very two-faced.
28:47I'm bouncing, I'm dripping, I'm sparkling.
28:49Just so fucking excited.
28:50I look so good.
28:51Like, so good!
28:52It's around my mind.
28:53I'm of two minds about this look.
28:56Mamoru?
28:57What do you think?
28:59I'm on the phone.
29:00I'll get back to you.
29:01She already don't have her.
29:06Category is No Place Like Home.
29:09First up, Scarlett Adams, representing Perth.
29:13She walks into the club Perth first.
29:16I think we've got a Perthen of interest here.
29:20The state animal of Western Australia is the black swan.
29:23So I am serving you black swan eleganza.
29:27And tonight I am no ugly duck lady.
29:29I didn't know Perth was known for fisting.
29:32Up next, Maxie Shield from Ballina.
29:36Hooly dilly, mate.
29:38Ballina was known for the big prawn.
29:40Am I making you prawny, baby?
29:42So if I am serving you prawn realness.
29:46You rip the head off and eat the body, bitches.
29:48You know, you're prawn naked and the rest is drag.
29:52Up next, from Auckland, Alexa shop.
29:55My No Place Like Home look, I'm bringing you Tamaki Makoto.
29:57Land of a Hundred Lovers.
29:59Look, she's got a heart on.
30:00She certainly does.
30:01Many of them.
30:03That's what she woke up in.
30:04You're shading me.
30:06This has got a real soft edge to it
30:08and I'm getting to show both sides of me on the runway tonight.
30:10She's three sheets to the win, kids.
30:14Coffs Harbour, Coco Jumbo.
30:17I am serving you Coffs Harbour, home of the big banana.
30:20And who doesn't love big bananas more than King Kong?
30:22Me.
30:25And we ain't talking monkey business.
30:27Yes, honey, she put the ass in potassium.
30:32Et cetera, et cetera.
30:34In Canberra.
30:35I am serving you Canberra realness.
30:37The flowing grey heels in this beautiful fabric.
30:40The boning on the corset is like the main streets.
30:42I'm pointing to the parliamentary triangle.
30:44Whether or not they know what that is, people in Canberra will know.
30:48I can see you Canberra people.
30:49Como arigatum, Mrs. Webato.
30:51Serving body odi odi.
30:53Up next, Newcastle's Jojo's a hoe.
30:56How dare you.
30:58I am serving you Aboriginal Empire.
31:01Channeling Marie Antoinette, Queen of the Curry.
31:04And I've got a giant, giant surprise under my dress that I flashed the judges with.
31:11Australia will always be Aboriginal land.
31:13Sovereignty was never ceded.
31:15Always was and always will be.
31:17I think Jojo means business.
31:19And from Melbourne, Karen from Finance.
31:22I'm channelling a straight, white woman in her mid-30s.
31:27Very relatable.
31:28Stay at the races, Karen.
31:30Melbourne Cup runneth over.
31:31I'm ready to go and bet on the horses and get completely obliterated while I'm doing it.
31:35What a party pooper.
31:37No, really, I think she pooped.
31:39I reckon she's a bit of a goer.
31:42She's having a ruffled nine.
31:43From Lee, New Zealand, it's Anita Wiglett.
31:46I'm channelling my inner wildebeest.
31:49So, I'm going with a kind of couture ship.
31:52Ooh, bah, bah.
31:53Okay, would you quit ramming it down our throats?
31:57It's iconically New Zealand.
31:59And they seem to think it's hilarious.
32:02Ooh.
32:04You know, Michelle, that's very you.
32:07Oh, my God.
32:09From Auckland, it's Ketamine.
32:12I am wearing my loud and proud rugby uniform.
32:16That's Keta cutting a rugby.
32:18From cute little hot princess into high glam evening wear.
32:22That's my favourite number.
32:24Dinner for two.
32:25For Melbourne, hot Simone.
32:27Why you gotta be all blacks?
32:29Why not?
32:30I'm on the Paris end of Collins Street strutting down.
32:34I've got my black corporate serving Chanel tweed.
32:37Okay.
32:39I flipped my costume inside out and it's Hosea Lane, street art, grungy realness.
32:44We have fucking everything in Melbourne.
32:45We've got fashion and sport and food and me, so it's the best place to be.
32:49I don't think this is the first time she's been sprayed.
32:52Congratulations.
32:53Congratulations.
32:57Kia ora, queens.
32:58Hi.
33:00Ozzy, ozzy, ozzy.
33:01Boy, boy, boy!
33:02Boy, boy, boy!
33:04Now, when I say your name, please step forward.
33:08Maxi Shield.
33:09Et cetera, et cetera.
33:11Anita Wiglett.
33:13Ketamine.
33:15You are all safe.
33:17You may leave the stage.
33:21Ladies, you represent the tops and the bottoms of the week.
33:25First up, Scarlett Adams.
33:28The first look, that's the meatiest tuck I've ever seen.
33:30I think ham is the meat.
33:32You came out in, I believe, a silicone prosthesis.
33:35That's what I love about Australasian drag, is you kids are not afraid to be ridiculous.
33:41I could see.
33:42It looked like a reverse tummy tuck.
33:45I did have a big back door blowout.
33:48Ah, there you go.
33:49But you sewed it together.
33:50And this outfit is really lovely.
33:52A very nice first effort up.
33:54Thank you so much, kangaroo.
33:57Up next, Electra Shock.
34:01Your born naked look was an homage to Rue.
34:04And I just thought you modernized it.
34:06Even though it was simple, it worked for me.
34:08Tell us about your outfit, which represents Auckland.
34:12My outfit represents Tarmaki Makoto, which is the Maori name for Auckland,
34:16which translates to the land of a hundred lovers.
34:19And of course, A Teodora, the land of the long white clouds.
34:21When I saw it, it wasn't like Auckland.
34:24You had to explain a lot for me to understand what everything translated to.
34:29And also the hair is, it's sort of this classic pretty lady hair.
34:33So it's sort of confusing.
34:35It's just a lot going on there.
34:40Up next, Coco Jumbo.
34:42Let's start with your born naked.
34:44The idea was there.
34:45The execution was not.
34:48Like Rue and I were trying to make out if there were earrings or calamari.
34:51Like we couldn't understand.
34:52To me, it felt like he'd gotten some Kmart cushions and kind of stuck them to a bodyset.
34:58This look is stunning.
35:01I've always been quite partial to a hairy chap.
35:06Well, in case you haven't heard, Jojo's a hoe.
35:11Your born naked look was just a little too simple.
35:17This, I thought, was a really important statement.
35:19However, when you do those things, you have to make sure every detail is covered.
35:23When you turn around, like I saw the fasteners on your hair underneath.
35:27So those are the things that I'm looking at.
35:29All the pieces are there.
35:31They just felt unfinished.
35:35Up next, Karen from Finance.
35:37You were so funny tonight, but at the same time, you look really good.
35:42You come with a reputation.
35:43And I think you came out with a bang.
35:45Your born naked was ridiculous.
35:47You delivered the character from the makeup to the toilet paper on your shoes.
35:51It was a very successful first outing.
35:54I do not need to speak to the manager.
35:57Art Simone.
35:59Your born naked look got me really excited.
36:01I liked the way you held yourself and I just thought the stonework on it was all really beautiful.
36:08Both those looks were the types of things where you go,
36:09Ah, fuck!
36:11Like it was...
36:12Oh, it's so good.
36:14My boyfriend always says,
36:15This is a strong opening and I hope you can top it.
36:19Thank you, ladies.
36:20I think we've heard enough.
36:22While you untuck in the workroom, the judges and I will deliberate.
36:26You may leave the stage.
36:36So, girls, fill the beans.
36:39I'm really disappointed.
36:40They love this, but they hated the other one.
36:42Oh my god, I've already fucked up.
36:44If that puts me in the bottom, lip syncing is what I do for my job.
36:47If there's anything I love, it's putting on a fucking show.
36:50Electra, what about you?
36:51I'm gonna be in the bottom.
36:52It was an aesthetics thing.
36:53You really thought the hair didn't quite go with it.
36:56Maybe your colours clash a little bit?
36:57I don't know.
37:01Well, thanks for telling me, sir.
37:03As long as people now know that there's more to New Zealand than sheep and all blacks,
37:06that's a good thing.
37:10Electra's look is pretty much like just layers on layers on layers.
37:13Don't do that.
37:13Keep it simple, stupid.
37:16I'm kind of glad the focus is off me so I can try and compose myself.
37:20Because I know that as soon as the attention comes to me that I'm gonna fall apart.
37:30How you feeling?
37:31I get what they were saying.
37:33I feel like I've let myself down.
37:36It breaks my heart.
37:40I fought so hard to get where I am.
37:42Can't be so hard on yourself.
37:45Get it together.
37:47Fuck.
37:47Yes, bitch, get it together.
37:49You came up there and you went up on that stage in outfits that you made yourself.
37:53I did.
37:58Don't be foolish.
37:59I'm gonna listen to this song and turn it the fuck out.
38:01Absolutely.
38:02Thank God my mascara is waterproof.
38:05Let's prepare for the worst case scenario.
38:07I want to make sure that my lip sync is tighter than a fish's asshole.
38:11That's watertight.
38:12You got this bitch.
38:15Alright, now just between us kangaroos.
38:19What do you think?
38:20Let's start with Scarlett Adams.
38:23She came down and everything was bouncing.
38:24My goodness, she was a human fleshlight.
38:26And she just was a perfect example of what this challenge was about.
38:32The second look was so beautifully constructed.
38:35She was a dirty lake bird looking glamorous.
38:42Electra Shark.
38:43The first look didn't say naked to me.
38:46The second look, it looked like she'd been to a sale of incredible garments
38:49and she just was putting on as many as she possibly could and just had to get out to the
38:52runway.
38:53She had to explain different elements of that outfit for us to really understand why it represented Auckland.
38:57And if you have to really go into detail, then maybe the message wasn't conveyed.
39:00Mama Roo, what'd you have to say?
39:03Electra Shock?
39:04I say Electra Schlock.
39:07Sorry about it.
39:10Coco Jumbo.
39:11I'm not sure I can put this first outfit any other way but messy.
39:16Everything was kind of sagging.
39:18Well, you're born naked and the rest is sag.
39:19Honey, I know.
39:22It just wasn't well done.
39:24The gorilla look was like a redemption story.
39:26It was a drag ape. That's funny.
39:28The first outfit really was not her best.
39:31Jojo's a hoe.
39:32She didn't bring the nude panties up high enough and the top part down low enough.
39:36So there was just a line in the middle.
39:38The second look, I thought that what she had to say was so important.
39:42But the problem was the wig popping off her head or the stitch coming out.
39:46Message? Fantastic.
39:48But listen, we are still in a competition and the execution has to be elevated.
39:53Up next, Karen from Finance.
39:55Y'all want to talk about execution?
39:57Karen from Finance executed all them bitches tonight.
40:01She looked like my aunties at the Rices.
40:03The way she editorialized the Melbourne Cup, it was fantastic.
40:07She set the bar very high for herself.
40:10Art Simone.
40:10Art Simone's naked look was extraordinary.
40:14It's not that we haven't seen the half and half before, but I love that Art took it all the
40:17way naked.
40:18Like naked mole rat naked on one side.
40:20And then the hometown was really fun.
40:22Silence!
40:24I've made the decision.
40:26Oh really?
40:28Bring back my ghettos.
40:31Welcome back ladies.
40:33I've made some decisions.
40:35Scarlett Adams.
40:37This week, you swam circles around the other queens.
40:42You are safe.
40:43You may join the other girls.
40:47Karen from Finance.
40:49And your hometown look was a drunken sloppy mess.
40:58Congratulations, you're the winner of this week's challenge.
41:03You've won a cash tip of $3,000 from Mary's Poppin' in Adelaide.
41:10Yes.
41:12You may join the other girls.
41:14I just won the first episode of RuPaul's Drag Race down Honda.
41:19Art Simone.
41:22You're safe.
41:24Let me join the other girls.
41:27Electra Shock.
41:29The judges got lost in your hometown look.
41:35Coco Jumbo.
41:37The judges loved your big banana, but your dirty pillows didn't turn us on.
41:46JoJo's a ho.
41:47Your message was right on, but your execution was a little off.
41:58Coco Jumbo.
42:02You're safe.
42:04Oh my god.
42:07You may join the other girls.
42:09Thank you so much.
42:12Electra and JoJo.
42:14I'm sorry my dears, but you are up for elimination.
42:18Fuck.
42:19Alright.
42:23I'm going to fucking bring it.
42:25I'm going to fucking bring it.
42:26Two queens stand before me.
42:31This is your last chance to impress me and save yourself from elimination.
42:45The time has come.
42:47Put your lip sync.
42:50For your life.
42:55I will fuck that stage up.
42:57There is no way I'm going home today.
42:59Good luck.
43:01And don't fuck it up.
43:08I will fuck that stage up.
43:12No way I'm going home.
43:16I'm going home.
43:24Oh, my God.
44:06Oh, my God.
44:32Oh, my God.
44:51Oh, my God.
44:55Oh, my God.
45:00Ladies, I've made my decision.
45:08Electroshock, Shantae, you stay.
45:17You may join the other girls.
45:31My dear, now the world knows what we already knew.
45:36JoJo's a ho.
45:40And you will always be drag race royalty.
45:44Now, sashay away.
45:47I just want to say thank you so much for this opportunity and to give me a chance to represent
45:53my culture in the best possible way I can.
46:03Anything is possible if you let your fab originality shine through.
46:16My time at Drag Race is done.
46:17I feel heartbroken, but I also feel very proud of myself.
46:21I'm trying so hard not to cry because I always laugh at the girls that cry.
46:26Now I am one.
46:27That's called karma.
46:29To any indigenous queen watching, we belong on this stage.
46:33And I know the level of fab originality that's about to take this stage on is going to be
46:37out of this world.
46:44Congratulations, ladies.
46:45Remember, if you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you going to love somebody else?
46:50Can I get an amen up in here?
46:51Yeah!
46:52All right, now let the music play.
