00:07When you're down under, watch out for snakes!
00:11I'm Hannah Conda and I am 30 years old and I'm from Sydney, Australia.
00:15Hannah Conda is sort of like your cool aunt.
00:19She'll pass you a ziggy and you know, buy this fortune kind of thing.
00:23I feel like I'm also a little bit like a fairy godmother.
00:25Holy shit, it's real.
00:29Snake by name, not by nature.
00:31But I will slither around your heart and suffocate you and you'll fall in love.
00:36I'm looking at the little angels, the little columns.
00:41That's a step up from last year, this is great!
00:44I'm ready to just have a fucking good time.
00:46Let's get gay, let's get girly and let's just do this.
00:50I'm ready.
00:59You may want to lay off that MSG before you get addicted to me.
01:02Oh my god.
01:11You may want to lay off that MSG before you get addicted to me.
01:13I am Fofa, I am from Sydney, originally from New Zealand.
01:18I am 27 years old.
01:20I am fun, I am fabulous, I am loud.
01:24But most of all, I am very crazy.
01:27I just can't wait to show the world who Fofa is.
01:31Because none of you bitches are ready!
01:34You're not ready!
01:36You ain't ready!
01:38Hi baby!
01:42My auntie Hannah couldn't be more happier.
01:45We know each other from working over years and years back.
01:49But we're the first two babies!
01:51Oh my god!
01:53I look simple compared to you.
01:55We look beautiful together.
01:56Do we?
01:57Yeah.
01:57I wonder who's gonna be here.
01:58I can't fucking wait.
02:02I might be a sheep fucker from New Zealand,
02:04but at least I didn't have to tie my kangaroo down.
02:09I'm Spanky Jackson,
02:10or you can call me Spanky Jackson motherfucker in the house.
02:13And I'm 37 from Palmerston North, New Zealand!
02:17Spanky Jackson is bright, loud, fun, loving, caring,
02:21likes to have a good time.
02:23Life of the party.
02:25And she's always got a bum out.
02:27Do you know who that is?
02:28No.
02:28Spanky Jackson.
02:29How do you hurt everyone?
02:30I know everyone!
02:32She's fabulous!
02:33Bum!
02:34Bum!
02:35Bum!
02:35Bum!
02:37Nice to meet you!
02:37You look amazing!
02:38I was like me!
02:39Those legs!
02:41Thank god I wasn't allergic to nuts when Spanky walked in,
02:44because I got an eyeful.
02:46Oh my god, cramp, cramp, cramp.
02:49Anyone got an EpiPen?
02:51This dress.
02:52I tried to be elegant.
02:54It looks like a shirt.
02:57Legs out, arse out, tips out.
02:59All the wrong things to be doing.
03:00That's not classy, but that's literally who Spanky is.
03:04All the wrong things at the first time.
03:12Giddy up, motherfucker!
03:15My name is Beverly Kills, I'm 21 years old, and I'm from sunny Brisbane in Queensland.
03:22Beverly Kills is a mix of bellesque, slideshow, drag.
03:26She'll always take the road less travelled when it comes to make-up style performance.
03:30As much as I love my drag queens with pink outfits and blonde wigs, it is getting very old very
03:35quickly,
03:36and I'm sort of here to assist in that method of shaking it up a bit.
03:42Look at you, you're so acidic.
03:44I have heard of Beverly Kills, and I don't really want to be on the back end of that whip.
03:48It's Beverly Kills!
03:49I'm Spanky, nice to meet you.
03:51Spanky Jackson, nice to meet you.
03:53I can hear your voice all the way from between.
03:58I definitely feel that she's going to put her thoughts out there,
04:01and she's not going to be afraid of those consequences.
04:03She strikes me as that kind of girl.
04:05Of course.
04:05Hey baby, Hannah.
04:06Lovely to see you, gorgeous.
04:08You look beautiful!
04:10Next!
04:11Come on, run through them!
04:18Meet me on the outside, but once you get inside me, I go real fast.
04:24I'm Mini Cooper, I'm a 50-year-old cross-dresser from Sydney, Australia! G'day!
04:30I've got the looks of Cate Blanchett, but the voice of Chris Hemsworth.
04:33I don't like to stick myself into a box.
04:35I like to have fun, I like to do different things,
04:38because if you just stick to the one thing, I think it's quite boring.
04:40And I am definitely not boring.
04:42Look at me.
04:46Mini's known all across Australia for a multitude of reasons.
04:50Mini's reputation precedes her.
04:52Jump in, join the girls.
04:54How old are you?
04:55I'm 50, darling. How old are you?
04:57Are you really 50?
04:58Yeah, I'm 50.
04:59Oh my goodness, you look amazing.
05:00Yeah, I know.
05:01It's more than I can say for the rest of you.
05:07This is the super-duper Mini Cooper.
05:09Started already.
05:10Here is some competition, here is some drama.
05:13And I'm very excited for that.
05:21You girls looking for Molly?
05:23Because I'm here to get it poppin'.
05:26I'm Molly Poppins, I'm 30 years old, and I'm Newcastle's hidden treasure.
05:30Molly Poppins is campy, colourful.
05:32She is a party girl and a fun time.
05:35And just pure ecstasy.
05:37I tried to hug you, but your boobs got in the way.
05:41Oh, right, like ready?
05:43Molly Poppins, she has something about her.
05:46Not to be confused with Mary.
05:48So polished.
05:50I think she's a queen's lot.
05:51What are you going to bring to us?
05:52What are we going to see?
05:53I like to like rap a little bit.
05:55You know, like spit a little bit of fire on the tracks.
05:58What do you mean by spitting fire on the tracks?
06:01You're showing your age, girl.
06:02You're showing your age, yeah!
06:10Did somebody forget to take out the trash?
06:15My name is Yuri Gai.
06:17I'm 25 years old from Tamaki Makoto.
06:19I'm Auckland's premier misfit.
06:21I'm filthy, glamorous, and just plain trash.
06:25It would be quite hard to find someone as beautiful as me.
06:28I mean, have you seen me?
06:29I'm fucking disgusting.
06:32Oh my god.
06:33Literally, this was me.
06:51So what do you bring to the table?
06:53I'm a seamstress.
06:55Oh, okay.
06:55That explains it.
06:56Yeah, she's very high-end couture.
06:58She's a spooky girl.
07:00No.
07:01Not a spooky girl.
07:02I'm here to murder some bitches.
07:09Hello, it's me.
07:12When's lunch?
07:16I'm Tamara Fierce.
07:18I'm 28 years old, and I'm from a little town called Camden.
07:22I will be your Māori original for the season.
07:26I can be fierce, as the kids would say, and slay the house down, but it's mummy, it's God.
07:33But I can also be funny, and I like to put a spin on my hat.
07:42Welcome to New Zealand, yeah?
07:44Thank you so much.
07:45Where are you from?
07:45I'm from Palmerston North, which is a tiny little rural town as well.
07:48My family grew up in Palmerston.
07:49Amazing!
07:50There you go.
07:50Are you part Kiwi?
07:51Yeah.
07:52Māori and Aboriginal.
07:53You're fabulous.
07:54I like to be the guide between two countries.
07:58And I will happily admit, Australia, you don't own Pavlova.
08:04The band, Crowded House, or Russell Crowe.
08:09Sorry.
08:10You don't.
08:14It's good to be home.
08:21I'm Aubrey Hav.
08:24I am 25 years old, and I'm originally from Timaru, New Zealand.
08:29I have been living in Melbourne for the last five years.
08:33Aubrey Hav is 60s inspired.
08:37Everything's just a little more colourful.
08:39It's cartoony.
08:41But then it's also still, like, fashion.
08:43Am I correct in saying you started drag during lockdown?
08:46I did.
08:48So, are we talking months?
08:50No, it's been like a year.
08:53Aubrey Hav.
08:55Never heard of Aubrey before.
08:57She looks very, very cute.
08:58You know, I think, you know, hopefully you can polish a chair.
09:04Well, bitch, you look good.
09:06I think just out of the bag.
09:07I mean, I might not have been doing drag for very long, but I don't think that the other queens
09:12should underestimate me by any means.
09:14I started drag in the pandemic as well, but it was in 1920.
09:26Honey, I've got the upper hand in this competition.
09:32Hello, beloved, my name is Queen Kong. I am 29 years old. I'm currently based in Adelaide, South Australia, but
09:38originally from South Auckland.
09:41Queen Kong is the superhero of the world. She is a strong matriarch. She is a monster performer.
09:50The kindest bit you'll ever meet, and she's the mother of the House of Kong. Mother and a motherfucker.
10:02Everyone knows who Queen Kong is. She is a legend in the drag scene.
10:07Sorry I'm late.
10:11Trade of the season, not going to lie about it.
10:13Hey!
10:15I am a massive fan, and nobody wants to fucking lip sync next to her.
10:21You know, like, the ten little bottles sitting on the wall?
10:24People are knocking us off one by one.
10:33Just as I'm about to talk about South Auckland, that's horrible.
10:39It's all about stars. There's no turning back now.
10:43Good day, good day, good day.
10:50That's right, it is real, bitches. You made it to RuPaul's Drag Race.
10:55And I am thrilled to be back down under.
10:59I still can't believe that I'm standing in front of her.
11:03It's wild.
11:05Now, before we get started, I want to clear up a rumour.
11:09There was a lot of speculation online that I wasn't here last season.
11:16Well, that was a lie.
11:17And to prove that I'm really here, I need a Queen's help.
11:22Spanky, Jackson, come on, Miss Jackson.
11:26Come on, Spanky.
11:28A little closer, darling.
11:39Thank you, Spanky.
11:41You're welcome.
11:41You may join the other girl.
11:43Yay!
11:45I can die happy now.
11:47I really can.
11:49There you have it.
11:50I am actually here, down under.
11:52Yay!
11:54Now, Drag Race is a global phenomenon, but no one can top the Queen's from down under.
12:02And can you blame them?
12:06For the next several weeks, your charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent is going to take a real pounding.
12:14Love it.
12:14In the end, the last Queen standing will walk away with the title of Down Under's next drag superstar.
12:25Receive a one-year supply of cosmetics from Anastasia Beverly Hills, plus a cash prize of $50,000.
12:34Yes!
12:37Courtesy of our mates from Samsung.
12:41$50,000?
12:42Oh my God, did you tell Keita me?
12:44She's going to be pissed, girl.
12:46I've got a question for you.
12:48Who's hungry?
12:49Me.
12:50Good.
12:51Let's go.
12:56The little boys aren't so little, are they?
13:02Aubrey, hey.
13:03We are having a sausage sizzle.
13:05Say that fast three times.
13:07Sausage sizzle.
13:08Sausage sizzle.
13:10Now, I know that you are a vegetarian.
13:13Which one is the vegetarian option?
13:15We're not going to tell you which one.
13:19Are you ready for your photo?
13:20Yes.
13:21Let's do it.
13:23Give me passion.
13:25Yeah, give me passion.
13:27Oh, yeah.
13:27Oh, yes.
13:29Aubrey, you're going to say, we're sausage destroyers.
13:32Yeah.
13:32Take a bite out of mine.
13:34We're sausage destroyers.
13:36Take a bite out of mine.
13:38Ooh.
13:39Ooh.
13:40You've got that sausage destroyer look in your eye.
13:46Hanaconda.
13:47We want you to select your sausage.
13:49And I want to interest you in this before you make your final decision.
13:53Okay.
13:53Sean, would you show her the sausage?
13:55Ready.
13:56It might be to her liking.
13:58Too much for you?
13:59Yes.
14:00I've got IBS and I need to be conservative.
14:02IBS?
14:03Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
14:05I could shit myself at any given moment.
14:07So, look out.
14:09I'm ready to show root.
14:12I know how to handle my meat.
14:14Nom nom nom.
14:16Nibble nibbles.
14:16More Bogan, more Bogan.
14:18Ooh.
14:18More Bogan?
14:19Yeah.
14:19Fucking sausage destroyers, mate.
14:22Take a fucking bun out of mine.
14:24Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
14:25You know what I'm at?
14:28Come on, Alpamara Fifth.
14:30Hello, darling.
14:32What's your fondest memory of a sausage sizzle?
14:36I think his name was Gary.
14:38Okay, we'll just stop right there.
14:42Yeah, uh-huh.
14:44Ooh, yes.
14:45Don't hide the sausage.
14:51Queen Kong.
14:52Hello?
14:53Hello.
14:54My director called.
14:57I'm being tortured because there is sausages.
14:59They're a hot man.
15:00They've got pieces of bread as well.
15:01Love carbs.
15:02I'm being directed to be glamorous in this photo shoot,
15:05but all I want to do is eat the sausage.
15:07Oh, she's messy.
15:11Spanky Jackson with a Z?
15:13You've got two fists full of sausages.
15:15Have you ever been that girl before?
15:18Always.
15:18Really?
15:19Can we get you down on your knees?
15:22Put the sausages like this?
15:25Oh, my God.
15:27This is art.
15:28Oh, yeah.
15:29It's fun.
15:29I'm having a good time.
15:35This has turned into a sausage fest.
15:38Let's get it poppin' with Miss Molly Poppins.
15:41Yeah, you like these big tits?
15:42Aww.
15:44Yeah, but what about the sausage?
15:45Oh.
15:47She's fine, but we've got the tits.
15:52We've got our cover.
15:54You're a guy.
15:56Being a butcher, I think you would appreciate this.
15:58Ugh.
15:59Oh, my goodness.
16:00That was so erotic.
16:02Yes.
16:02It was less juicy.
16:03Is it juicy?
16:04Oh, I'm a sausage destroyer.
16:06Take a big bite out of me.
16:10Looks like you killed the cow yourself.
16:14Vroom, vroom, it's Minnie Cooper.
16:16Hello, RuPaul.
16:17Who'd ever thought a 50-year-old man would make it a drag race?
16:20I'm here to have a great time.
16:21Sean, would you show her our girthy selection?
16:25Oh, Jesus Christ, no.
16:27You said you were a woman of a certain age.
16:29No, but I've still got feeling.
16:33And the girth of it.
16:34I thought if I sat on that, I wouldn't be able to fucking walk.
16:37I'm a sausage destroyer.
16:39Take a bite out of mine.
16:41Oh, you did it like a southern bear.
16:43I know.
16:44I didn't even know I had a southern bear in me.
16:46Are you southern?
16:49All I want to do is to make roulette.
16:51You're fingering the tip of that sausage.
16:54Yeah, you've always got to finger the tip because that's the sensitive part.
17:00You're stupid.
17:03Oh, that's the shot right there.
17:06Hello, faux fur.
17:07Hi.
17:08Look how gorgeous you are.
17:10What kind of sausage do you like?
17:12All of it.
17:13Sean, would you show her the extra special sausage?
17:18Ooh.
17:21Yeah, I can type that.
17:22You think you can handle it?
17:24Gimme, gimme, gimme.
17:25Now, faux fur, be careful what you wish for.
17:28Oh, you forgot the bread.
17:30Oh.
17:31Yeah, yeah, exactly.
17:32Yeah.
17:33Okay.
17:34Make love to...
17:35Okay, yeah.
17:37Pose.
17:40Is she going to eat that whole thing?
17:42Beverly Hills.
17:44What are your favorite memories from Sausage Sizzles?
17:47There was one where I was facing this way and my hands were on the ground.
17:51Uh-huh.
17:51And then you know when you rotate the sausage?
17:53Yes.
17:53It was like that.
17:56Okay.
17:58Let's hit it.
17:59Okay.
18:00Yes.
18:01Oh, oh, oh.
18:02That's an interesting thing to do with the sausage.
18:04Yes.
18:05We're Sausage Destroyers.
18:07Take a bite out of mine.
18:10Beverly kills that sausage.
18:12Thank you, I'll be here all week.
18:14I probably won't be.
18:20Ladies, you were all fantastic.
18:23But one of you left me gagging for more.
18:27The winner of today's Mini Challenge is...
18:32Mini Cooper.
18:37Thank you so much.
18:39Well, apparently Mini's funny.
18:41That's good.
18:42Oh, that's nice.
18:45Conjaculations.
18:46You've won a beautiful selection of fierce drag jewels.
18:51Yes!
18:54Now this week, we're gonna show our appreciation for the native bush.
19:00Okay.
19:01Take a look.
19:03G'day, g'day, g'day.
19:05Hey!
19:06Don't worry, it's just us, Irwin's here, checking in from Australia Zoo.
19:09Hello!
19:10Oh my God, Bindi and Rob Irwin.
19:13Now, we are massive fans of Drag Race, aren't we, Bindi?
19:16We sure are, Robert.
19:18Art Simone's impersonation of me last season was truly...
19:21inspirational.
19:23It was.
19:24Just kidding.
19:28Bindi Irwin could compete on Drag Race with that shade.
19:31And as wildlife warriors, we were put on this planet to save wildlife and wild places, just like Jenny the
19:37Burmese python here.
19:38And celebrating the natural beauty of our homelands is always in fashion.
19:42Robert, before we get constricted, is there anything else you'd like to say?
19:46Great.
19:46Good luck.
19:48And don't...
19:51Nah, I can't say it.
19:53I'll leave that to you, Ru.
19:55Bye.
19:55See ya.
19:56Yeah!
19:57I do!
19:59Now, ladies kids, for your very first maxi challenge, you need to create a custom couture look, inspired by the
20:08great down under.
20:10Naturally.
20:12Oh, pit crew!
20:21First maxi challenge is a design challenge.
20:24They didn't even lube us up, they just said, let's go.
20:28Oh, wow!
20:30I've literally just broken the bank with all these incredible outfits, and the first thing they want me to wear
20:36is something I have to hot glue together.
20:39Ladies, you can use these locally sourced natural materials, plus any of the recyclable items provided.
20:48And yes, you can use your own hair, heels, and undergarments.
20:53But the rest of your outfit must be from the house of mother nature.
21:01Hashtag Drag Race Down Under.
21:04This is your first chance to show the judges who you really are.
21:08Let's hope it's not your last.
21:11This is a great first challenge.
21:13This is gonna test all these bitches and see what they're made of.
21:16It is about to go down.
21:20Racers, start your engines.
21:22And may the best drag queen win.
21:37I am not breaking a nail, bitch. I only just got these done.
21:49I can see plastic, leaves, junk. And I look, and I look, and I look, and there's no fabric.
22:04It's here, coming through, coming through, drag.
22:06We open up the workroom, we all look for our workstations, and the old girls go up to the back
22:11fucking corner where we belong.
22:12I think we're the oldest comes here.
22:14Yeah, we are. But I'm fine with that.
22:16I have been doing drag for 20 years.
22:18I'm of a generation where I never saw gay things on television.
22:22This is why I'm here.
22:23And what I'm grateful for is that I've gotten this opportunity at my age.
22:28Yeah, but with being older queens, like...
22:30What comes with that?
22:31Experience.
22:32Experience. And we've done it.
22:34Age is experience. Is that worth something?
22:37I don't know. I'm about to find out.
22:41How old are you?
22:42I'm 25.
22:43I only started, like, drag and lockdown.
22:46So it's been, like, a year and, like, a bit.
22:48That blows my mind every time you say that.
22:50Crazy.
22:52Beverly, how old are you?
22:53I'm 21.
22:55The baby.
22:56Yeah, little bub.
22:57Minnie.
22:58Yes.
22:59Apparently we're the youngest here.
23:01And what does that make you?
23:02The oldest.
23:04I do think that Minnie should be respected because she is an Australasian legend.
23:08I am vintage.
23:10I'd say retro.
23:12We wouldn't be doing what we're doing today if it wasn't for people like Minnie.
23:17I find it very interesting that the only thing they can go me is my age.
23:22Age, exactly.
23:23But I can't change that.
23:24So why is it okay to...
23:26Because that's what young people do.
23:28Younger queens today see, like, past drag race contestants and that's who they want to be.
23:32You know, that's the legend.
23:34But the legend is the person that's working in their town that made it okay for them to put on
23:39a dress, walk out the fucking door and not get the bash.
23:43That's the legend.
23:44So how do we stop ageism?
23:46What is, how do we do that?
23:48Tell them to fuck it.
23:49Oh, yes!
23:51Respect is not give it.
23:52It's earned.
23:54So earn it, bitch.
23:57I'm always trying to do new shit with my dress.
23:59I mean, I...
24:00It's so new.
24:00Everything you do is new shit.
24:01You get in a week and it's brand new.
24:04Did anyone check any other pile of rubbish around just to make sure the art Simone definitely isn't coming back?
24:14I'm really excited that this week we're doing a design challenge because not only do I know my way around
24:19the sewing machine, I also know fashion, so...
24:25But the unconventional materials, on the other hand...
24:33I'm going for a real confusion motif on my...
24:36Are you?
24:37Yeah, it's confusion.
24:38It is, actually.
24:38Lost in the bush.
24:39I look at that and go, what is it?
24:40I'm lost in the bush.
24:42I practiced sewing for five minutes before I came here, but this is not the ticket.
24:47I've got these leaves and I've got a piece of green fabric and I'm blanking.
24:51I'm fully blanking.
24:53I don't think I could survive in the bush.
24:56No, you definitely couldn't survive in the bush.
24:57I feel like I'm the girl that's just hot glue gun shit to a fucking corset.
25:01Because I am.
25:05I have no idea.
25:07Oh my God.
25:11This is definitely my first chance to impress the judges.
25:15So do I really use this opportunity to do something fashion forward or do I use it as an opportunity
25:20to represent my culture?
25:26Oh my God.
25:27Oh my God.
25:27These nails.
25:27Cool.
25:30So moles.
25:31Yes.
25:32What are you doing?
25:33Hot glue and desperation girl.
25:35I'm on the same goes.
25:36I can't sew any of this material.
25:39I'm in the corner just stressing the fuck out, trying to get this outfit together.
25:43I'm not really much of a seamstress or a designer.
25:47Are you just like, gluing and hoping for the best?
25:50Uh, yeah.
25:54I am worried for Miss Molly Poppins.
25:57Like, oh my God.
25:58What you can do is like, yeah, spread it.
26:00Yeah.
26:01And then it gathers.
26:01Yeah, it's like, yeah.
26:02Gemini?
26:03Gemini?
26:04It's all yeah.
26:07Come on, Wally.
26:12Oh, she's gonna look fierce, mother.
26:15I think I got this.
26:17I'm gonna love fierce.
26:19I think I've got this in the bag.
26:21God no shit!
26:27I don't really know, haven't heard of pho.
26:29All I can tell from right now is that she's very loud.
26:32Shippie-doo.
26:35And sounds like a hyena.
26:40But she seems nice.
26:42Seems like a nice person.
26:43I can't fucking deal, girl.
26:47My concept for the dress is I am going to glue shit onto a corset.
26:54I know, not the greatest decision.
26:58Not sure quite where I'm going with it yet.
27:01But I think I can pull this off.
27:08I've been working on this single garment for hours.
27:12And I realized I need to change my look because I'm so not happy with it.
27:17It's not reading how I want it to read.
27:19It doesn't look like me.
27:20It doesn't feel like me.
27:21I am panicking on the inside.
27:23I need a miracle at this stage.
27:25I can't go home in the first week.
27:27I'm a fucking legend.
27:29I did not work my ass off to get here to be sent home on a shitty design challenge.
27:34Something needs to happen otherwise I'm in big trouble.
27:55It's a new day in the workroom.
27:56I decided last minute to change my look completely.
27:59I feel like I'm setting myself up to fail.
28:02But I have to do this.
28:03I have to do it the way that I want to do it.
28:04Otherwise, I'm going to regret it.
28:07What do you think of this, babe?
28:07Kimmy Blue.
28:08She's a mess.
28:12I learned from my parents, if I've got nothing nice to say, I'm going to keep it short.
28:16I'm not completely happy with her.
28:18Because you can still see corset, but I'm just going to cover the shit out of it.
28:27Oh, shit.
28:29How you going, girl?
28:30Oh, look, last night, as I suspected, the leaves have decided to be leaves.
28:35Yeah.
28:35They're leaving, girl.
28:37They're leaving.
28:37They are leaving.
28:39And it's fucking stressing me out.
28:40Yes.
28:41I'm feeling pretty fucking frantic right now.
28:43I'm looking at it and I'm like, there is literally just leaves glued to a corset.
28:48I'm like, oh my gosh, what can I do to make this better?
28:51How did your skirt go?
28:53She's going to give a silhouette, for sure.
28:55Like, waddling down the runway, you know.
28:57Avocado.
28:58Ta-da.
28:59I am stressed AF.
29:02I'm scared that this shit's going to fall apart on the runway.
29:06My worst fear at this point is going home first.
29:08I need to do it for Jojo's The Ho.
29:10I need to do it for Newcastle.
29:12But most importantly, I need to do it for me.
29:15I'm looking around and I see some outfits and there's some good ones.
29:26I don't know what to say, I don't know.
29:30Spanky is concerning me, I'll be honest.
29:34That outfit was really horrible.
29:36It was really bad and I hated how bad it was.
29:39We're in the midst of some of the best Australian drag talent and people aren't showing their full potential of
29:44what they can do, which is so frustrating.
29:45I'll make it work.
29:48It blew me away that Mini Cooper doesn't know how to sew.
29:51Like, she should know this sort of stuff.
29:56Staple a dress together.
29:57What is all that about?
29:59I don't want that.
30:02I am expecting more from Anaconda.
30:05You can wear it.
30:06I'm like, okay, no, like, yeah, you can wear the outfit.
30:09You can, you can wear the outfit.
30:12I hate it.
30:14Five.
30:14Up Close is not my favourite.
30:16Not my favourite.
30:20Molly, what she's selling, I'm just not buying it.
30:23That's all I've got.
30:28I start to feel that my corset starts losing shape.
30:33And I'm like, this is not it.
30:36This is going to be awful.
30:40And now I really am dreading that this could be the only time they see me on the RuPaul's Drag
30:45Race main stage.
30:49RuPaul's Drag Race down under.
30:52Here's a lady who really sizzles.
30:55Michelle Vesausage.
30:59And now he's a real hot dog.
31:01The lovable and laughable.
31:05Reece Nicholson.
31:07How's your year been?
31:08Oh, look, it's been rough.
31:10Spending a lot of time inside, worrying about my health, crying.
31:14Well, listen, the pandemic's been hard on all of us.
31:18Pandemic?
31:18What pandemic?
31:20Oh.
31:22I'm just kidding.
31:23I'm vaxxed, I'm waxed and I'm heavily taxed.
31:27This week we challenged our queens to create a signature look using locally sourced and recyclable materials.
31:34Racers, start your engines and may the best drag queen win.
31:39The category is down under.
31:42Naturally.
31:43Up first, Beverly Kills.
31:49Oh dear, she's gotta do something about those bags.
31:54Reminds me I've got a sandwich in the fridge.
31:59First cab off the rank, all I can think to myself is give them a walk.
32:04And I absolutely do just that.
32:09Well, she's making a clear point.
32:13Next, Hannah Conga.
32:16Ladies and gentlemen, Kate Moss.
32:18I'm like, if you can't touch the seats, it has made all, no, no, no.
32:21In the room, no.
32:22Drumming down and then I like, I blow my pixie dust and the wind blows the back of my eyes.
32:27But, I don't care, I'm feeling a fantasy.
32:30Something to prove.
32:32Oh, she's one of these new plant-based queens.
32:35From the start, so proud of who.
32:37Minnie Cooper.
32:39Now you've met my past secretary. This is my future secretary.
32:45I hit the runway and I feel great.
32:47It is a simple design, but I think it's chic.
32:51It's sexy, it's cute, and I'm popular to boot.
32:57Mini Cooper, you're it girl.
33:00And by it, I mean IT.
33:06Aubrey Hay.
33:08Aubrey Hay.
33:11She's prancing down the runway, looking like a sexy, rumply foreskin.
33:16I am living for this moment.
33:20I feel like I'm doing a fucking good job on this runway.
33:25The details in the denim.
33:28Queen car.
33:31The Otta Queen.
33:35I am serving straight up Moana, fights Maui in an alleyway realness.
33:42I am a paying homage to strong Polynesian warrior queens.
33:45I'm thinking about my mum, thinking about my nana.
33:47You know, the matriarch of my people.
33:50One look at Queen Kong and I'm hooked.
33:55Spanky Jackson.
33:58Spanky Jackson.
33:59Now Michelle, isn't that your old IUD?
34:02Oh my goodness, you're not real, it just fell out.
34:05I kind of wanted to give like a space, fun, inspired piece.
34:11Spanky Jackson.
34:12Then when I turn around, woo, there's my bum.
34:16Oh my God, can I stop sounding like a fucking high-pitched teenager?
34:19Like, I'm walking down the runway, fucking feeling myself.
34:22Fuck yeah.
34:24All right, y'all, let's get it poppin'.
34:27Molly Poppins.
34:30I'm looking over at the judges and they are smiling.
34:34And bam, I flash my hairy bush.
34:37Oh yeah, that crop needs a plowin'.
34:40I am serving Gina Liano, moves to the bush to live her life out as a Sheila Bush fairy on
34:47acid.
34:49Up next, faux fur.
34:52Girl, I'm walking down this runway looking like the scarecrow's wife.
34:55She is fierce, cute, high-end fashion pretzeler.
35:02I am feeling fine and delicious.
35:05Y'all can eat here.
35:06Trend alert, black panties.
35:11Camara fifth.
35:16Now to understand Camara fifth, do I need to have seen one to four?
35:22Walking down the main stage with that hat and those big curls bouncing along.
35:26I'm kind of feeling myself.
35:28Plucking RuPaul, like.
35:31Ooh, trend alert, crack is back.
35:37You're a winner.
35:38You're a winner.
35:39You're a winner.
35:39You're a winner.
35:41You're a winner.
35:42You're a winner.
35:42Oh, I smell a crime scene coming on.
35:46I am feeling fantastic in plastic.
35:50Putting a drop cloth down before fisting.
35:53I'm here.
35:54I'm clear and feeling confident in this garment that I've made.
36:03In my head, I'm like, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
36:07First time down the runway and I've already fucked up.
36:10What I love about this outfit is you can never hear her coming.
36:19Here are queens.
36:20Aussie, Aussie, Aussie.
36:21Oy, oy, oy.
36:23Now, when I call your name, please step forward.
36:27Beverly Kills.
36:31Minnie Cooper.
36:35Aubrey Hague.
36:39Pamara Fifth.
36:45I'm sorry, my dears, but you are all safe.
36:49Thank God.
36:54Ladies, you may leave the stage.
37:02Ladies, you represent the tops and bottoms of the week.
37:07First up, Hannah Conda.
37:10You all know at this point how I feel about leotards and corsets and shoving stuff on it,
37:15but you made something more out of it.
37:17I like the little headband.
37:18I like the little Tinkerbell nod that you did.
37:21It's good enough for me that I wouldn't have known that this was like a kind of sewing challenge.
37:24As a package, I think you look stunning.
37:27What's your favorite part of the outfit?
37:29Probably going to be taking it off, to be fair.
37:32Thank you, Hannah.
37:34Up next, Queen Kong.
37:37First and foremost, I want to say how arrestingly beautiful you are.
37:41Anytime a queen brings culture to the main stage, it makes me so happy.
37:44The issues I have, Queen, are seeing the undergarments up here.
37:48We just don't want to see the inner workings, those little things that will take us out of the illusion.
37:53I understand, yeah, there's some kind of unfinished bits, but I think all in all, this was one of my
37:57favorites tonight.
37:58Queen, I agree with Michelle.
38:00I know, the idea is there, but finishing touches mean everything.
38:05Up next, Spanky Jackson.
38:07Well, Spanky, you look like great fun, and that's what I loved about you when you came out.
38:11But we need to get into what's going on here.
38:14Just wearing panties?
38:16Not sure is the best choice.
38:17I think what it is for me is it just stops quite suddenly, the outfit.
38:20Something's missing.
38:22Get my pants.
38:24Perhaps maybe you've ran out of time.
38:26I think it's just creeping over into that play school kind of vibe.
38:30What do you think this says about New Zealand?
38:32It says that I'm a resourceful queen, cheap, I love to go to the warehouse.
38:37Okay, thank you.
38:39Up next, let's get it poppin', Miss Molly Poppins.
38:43You didn't pile it on, you broke it up, you sold it well, the construction looks great.
38:48I just really thought you did a good job.
38:50Some of the looks tonight have looked like, oh, we had to make this product work.
38:54This looked like you were always going to make an outfit that looked this together.
38:58And you represented the bush down under, didn't you?
39:04Up next, faux fur.
39:06So your dress is actually quite cute.
39:07Is it basic? Yes.
39:09But that's not always a bad thing.
39:11But I'm going to tell you what is always a bad thing.
39:15Black panties under white or beige.
39:19My kind of thing is it's all quite one note.
39:21You're stuck with something and you're really stuck with it and you're really, really stuck with it.
39:25It's not a bad idea. It's just, it was just ruined by those granny panties.
39:30This was a thin harvest.
39:33Up next, Yuri Guy.
39:35The obvious, he couldn't walk in this outfit at all.
39:40But, I think it's amazing.
39:42It was a fashion moment.
39:43Pretty much everyone sort of stuck to the wheat storyline.
39:47You went with plastic.
39:49Was that a strategic move on your part?
39:51Probably.
39:52I've sewn with plastic before, so this is all sewn.
39:55Sewing? Is that what you're saying?
39:56Sewing.
39:57Sewing.
39:57Through the sewing machine.
39:59Sewing, yes.
40:00Sorry, I was hungry.
40:02Sewing. Okay, come on.
40:04Sewing.
40:04Sewing in the wind.
40:05Okay, I love it.
40:07Thank you, ladies. I think we've heard enough.
40:09While you untuck in the workroom, the judges and I will deliberate.
40:14You may leave the stage.
40:19Cheers to that.
40:20Well done, guys.
40:20Fuck me.
40:22Oh, my God.
40:23Oh, hello. Oh, yes.
40:24Hi, girls.
40:26Yeah, come take a seat here, everyone.
40:29So, I just want, like, a full rundown of, like, who placed where, essentially.
40:34Yeah, so us three are definitely on the bottom.
40:36Yeah.
40:36Us three.
40:37Oh, fuck me.
40:39Come here, sweetheart.
40:42Oh, fuck.
40:46We all just worked so fucking hard to get here.
40:48Yeah.
40:49I just feel like if I go home today, I didn't really get it.
40:52Just to fucking show what I'm actually worth.
40:56I wasn't expecting it to go downhill, either.
40:58Everything they said, I kind of felt it anyways.
41:01Not surprised that I'm here.
41:02Knowing I'm in the bottom, like, it hits, but it makes sense.
41:05My mind has switched into lip sync mode, which is where I'm at my best.
41:09So, I'm scared for the other girls.
41:11Because if it's me in that bottom, the other person's going home.
41:13No questions about it.
41:16Sweetie, you're pretty quiet.
41:17What's going on?
41:18Oh, I'm fine.
41:19I'm so fine.
41:20No, you're not.
41:21I am devastated.
41:23And Molly, what about yourself?
41:25Definitely from the critiques.
41:26Yeah.
41:27I didn't really get any negative critiques.
41:39I just feel like a dude.
41:41You're not a dude.
41:42No.
41:43That's how I feel too.
41:45Oh, God.
41:50I'm stoked to be safe.
41:52Like, yeah.
41:52I think out of the safe group, like, we were maybe, like, the higher of the two.
41:56I think so.
41:59Your looks, like, not my favorite.
42:00I've already told you that.
42:04Myself and Minnie have similar looks.
42:06And Aubrey and Tamara have similar looks.
42:08But if you line us up, you can tell who's got the stronger looks out of the four of us.
42:11Like, I learned how to sew.
42:13And I think that I went with it really fucking well.
42:16And also, you made the corset.
42:17I sewed this.
42:19You sewed the corset.
42:20Like, that's pretty great.
42:22Just because you sewed something, you shouldn't just be congratulated for it.
42:25If you sewed it, great.
42:26Then you should be congratulated.
42:27Not just because you sewed it.
42:28I fucking sewed this mat together.
42:32I think your corset, even though you sewed it, is a little ill-fitting.
42:37Oh, okay.
42:38Ill-fitted?
42:40You're stapled together, babe.
42:42I think you're creative.
42:43Don't get me wrong.
42:44Like, mine's not a great outfit either.
42:45It's definitely not.
42:48Wrong person to go to for a fight.
42:58What the fuck?
43:00We've got this.
43:01It has to be us, too.
43:06If I'm going to lip-sync for my life today, I'd prefer to lip-sync against Foe.
43:10Queen is an absolute powerhouse.
43:13I don't really know what Foe has to offer.
43:17But if it's Queen, probably curtains for this bitch.
43:22Somebody has to go home first.
43:23Did not expect it to be me.
43:27Now, just between us kangaroos, what do you think?
43:31Starting with Hannah Konda.
43:34Hannah Konda had a very strong showing tonight.
43:37We knew what it was when we saw her.
43:38She was like a little fairy, and I mean...
43:41In the kindest of ways.
43:42Exactly.
43:43She, to me, is that kind of quintessential Australasian drag that is camp,
43:47but it's also really beautiful and really put together.
43:50And these were not easy materials to work with.
43:52And I say my Hannah Konda do.
43:55Queen Kong.
43:56Queen Kong came around the corner, and I was blown away by her beauty.
44:00The outfit, in theory, was a great idea, but we lost it with the execution.
44:05The black panties over the corset, and then in the back, it was literally falling apart.
44:08There was a pretty clear line between some ones that were really finished and some ones that were not close,
44:12and I definitely think she was closer to the more finished.
44:15I just don't like being taken out of the illusion with seeing the undergarment.
44:19Let's move on down to Miss Jackson.
44:21Spanky, if you're nasty.
44:23Oh, dear.
44:25First of all, I love the energy that Spanky has.
44:28It's a joy to watch her because she was really trying her damnedest to sell that mess.
44:34The end.
44:36I just don't know what the plan was.
44:38There's something very disconcerting about seeing her bare legs and a pair of panties.
44:45Hashtag black panty gates.
44:47Okay, and we're not done yet.
44:49All right, Michelle, Molly Poppins.
44:51You start at the top and go all the way to the bottom, and you could eat her up.
44:54She was adorable.
44:55She had that beautiful hair with that gorgeous little weedy fascinator.
44:59For her, it worked, the way she put it together.
45:02And she sang, oh, I'm not a very confident sewer, and she was able to whip that up,
45:05and that automatically makes me feel so excited for what we're going to see from her.
45:08I really did love Molly Poppins' outfit.
45:11It seemed like a signature Molly Poppins look.
45:14Up next, we've got faux fur.
45:17The dress in and of itself was cute.
45:19What I did mind were not just black panties, but Bridget Jones' panties.
45:23It makes me question her aesthetic in general.
45:25It all felt like a straight line with very little color, and the only thing I could see was those
45:30black panties.
45:30It was an idea that could have really gone well.
45:33The biggest crime that faux fur delivered were those black panties.
45:39All right, Yuri Gai.
45:41What Yuri did with a tarp, I thought, was kind of the only fashion we saw on the runway.
45:46Maybe, to me, the most interesting look tonight.
45:48I thought it was absolutely lovely. A few points off, though.
45:52She's tripping over it, so we couldn't really enjoy the fantasy as much as we wanted to.
45:56She could have actually taken something else to sort of make that whole thing flare out.
45:59Yeah, you know what? Scissors.
46:01Scissors.
46:02Would have done this shit.
46:03All right. Silence.
46:07I've made my decision.
46:09Bring back my girls.
46:13Welcome back, ladies.
46:15I've made some decisions.
46:19Hanaconda.
46:21Your outfit gave us a new leaf on mine.
46:25Yuri Gai.
46:26Your plastic was fantastic.
46:30Molly Poppins.
46:32You didn't just pop in.
46:34You popped off.
46:38Molly Poppins.
46:39Congratulations.
46:40You are the winner of this week's challenge.
46:43Yay, Molly!
46:45Yay, Molly!
46:46Molly, you've won a custom prosthetic makeover from Body FX, valued at $3,500.
46:57God knows I need one.
46:59Ladies, you may join the other girls.
47:08Oh my God.
47:11Queen Kong.
47:13Your outfit had us hooked, but important details were overlooked.
47:19Spanky Jackson.
47:20Spanky Jackson.
47:21Spanky Jackson.
47:22Yay!
47:22Your outfit reminds me of Reese's Margarita order.
47:27Bottomless.
47:31Fuffer.
47:33Your grass kicked ass, but your granny panties were the last straw.
47:42Queen Kong, you are safe. You may join the other girls.
48:03Spanky Jackson, faux fur.
48:06I'm sorry, my dears, but you are both up for elimination.
48:12I'm not going home now. I'm going to survive.
48:16Two queens, stand before me.
48:21I'm not going down without a fight. I'm going to give the children what they want.
48:25This is your last chance to impress me and save yourself from elimination.
48:35The time has come for you to lip sync for your life.
48:45Good luck.
48:49And don't fuck it up.
48:56What's the worst thing that could happen to you? Take a chance tonight and try something new.
49:04You're getting boring. You're also boring.
49:07Don't worry.
49:09Cause tonight I got you.
49:11You can take a seat.
49:12Do what your mama would do.
49:14I'm about to let you see me.
49:17Easy.
49:18You move on to a perfect stranger.
49:21You talk I walk.
49:23Wanna feel the danger.
49:24See me with him and I swear to you all.
49:27I'm gonna say you're getting me back at the end of this song.
49:30Get out of my way.
49:31Way out of my way.
49:33Got no more to say.
49:35It's taking your place.
49:37Get out of my way.
49:38Now I got a taste.
49:40I wanna explore.
49:42Ain't going to waste.
49:44No, not anymore.
49:45You're going hard now.
49:47Too in my heart.
49:48But too many times now.
49:50You've been calling me true.
49:52Don't worry.
49:54Cause tonight I got you.
49:56I'm about to let you see.
49:59This is what'll happen if you ain't giving your girl what you need.
50:03And now I'm to a perfect stranger.
50:06You talk I walk.
50:08Wanna feel the danger.
50:09See me with him and it's turning you on.
50:12I'm gonna say you're getting me back at the end of this song.
50:15Get out of my way.
50:17Get out of my way.
50:18Got no more to say.
50:20It's taking your place.
50:22Get out of my way.
50:24Way out of my way.
50:26Got no more to say.
50:27It's taking your place.
50:29Get out of my way.
50:31Now I showed you what I made.
50:34Now I showed you what I made.
50:47Ladies.
50:49I've made my decision.
50:55Spanky Jackson.
50:58Shantae you stay.
51:03You may join the other girls.
51:21Faux fur, my dear.

51:49It's hard being the first one sent home.
51:52It hurts.
51:54But, I made it here.
51:56I got to hang out with my sisters.
51:58And that was the most amazing part.
52:01Who knows what the future holds for.
52:03But, let me tell you.
52:06Never say the last of me bitch!
52:08Never!
