00:01Why, good morning, professors.
00:04Good morning, Drew.
00:05A new class is arriving today, ready to change their lives through the miracle of drag.
00:12Mamma mia.
00:14Today we have some messy moms who need some help.
00:17That means I'm going to need the help of three of you professors.
00:20Professor Bebe Sahara Benet.
00:23Morgan McMichaels, PhD.
00:26Dr. Pandora Box.
00:28If anyone can smother these mothers with love, it's you three.
00:33Let's take a look.
00:35I'm Michelle. I'm a mom to a seven-year-old and a three-year-old, and I'm exhausted.
00:41Once I got married, there became so many responsibilities, I just sort of let myself go.
00:46I feel like my prime has passed me.
00:52My name's Alicia.
00:53I'm a single mother with a ten-year-old daughter who is the absolute love of my life.
00:58Once I had my daughter, I totally lost sight of myself.
01:01I haven't been on a date in eight years.
01:03Sometimes I look in the mirror and I'm like, oh my God, you are on the road to becoming an
01:07old maid.
01:12My name is Anna, and I have three children.
01:15I serve all day long as a waitress, and then I come home and take care of my family.
01:19It's all pretty much the same gig.
01:21I definitely feel like a servant in my life.
01:22I want to show that I am someone who has something valuable to offer in the world.
01:30Touchdown Drag U!
01:37Welcome to RuPaul's Drag U.
01:40Hello.
01:40Now they say that being a mother is the hardest job in the world.
01:45Whoever said that never tried being a drag queen.
01:48Now you get to be both, and in the process, give birth to a glamazon.
01:54But RuPaul's Drag U, like the real world, is a competition.
01:57You'll be evaluated on your DPA, your drag point average.
02:02D is your drag transformation.
02:04P is for performance.
02:05And A is your attitude adjustment.
02:08You have 48 hours until your draguation.
02:11And in the end, only one of you will draguate with top honors.
02:14And walk away with a fabulous Drag U scholarship.
02:18Julissa, tell us what you'll win.
02:21Well Ru, our top draguate will receive
02:24Exquisite jewelry from Bijou Tresor.
02:26A luxury vacation for two from AlanChuck.Travel.
02:30And that's not all.
02:31The top draguate will also receive a cash prize of $3,166.41.

02:42Are you ready to do whatever it takes to become the baddest bitch in school?
02:47Oh yeah.
02:48Can I get a Ru-Ha?
02:49Ru-Ha!
02:50Can I get a Wut-Wut?
02:51Wut-Wut!
02:53First stop, the Drag Lab.
02:56Walk this way.
03:00No, really. Walk this way.
03:03Door.
03:11This is the Drag Lab.
03:13Here is everything you'll need for your diva transformation.
03:17We've got more pumps, pomp, and circumstance than Elton John at the Royal Wedding.
03:23Oh my God, there's jewelry over here. There's dresses over here.
03:26I swear I'm like a kid in a candy store.
03:28But the most important tool of all is your own personal drag professor.
03:34Michelle, you're with Pandora Box.
03:37Michelle definitely looks like a tired and overworked mom.
03:40But I'm getting a hidden rocker chick vibe and I'm liking it.
03:43Alicia, you're with Morgan McMichaels.
03:47Morgan seems like she does not take no mess from nobody.
03:52Anna, that means you are with Bibi Zahara Benet.
03:56Welcome to Cameroon.
03:57I'm looking at her body and she has all these tattoos.
04:03There's so much story behind this woman and I really want to find out.
04:08Professors, time to take your students through their entrance exams.
04:16What is the least favorite part of your appearance?
04:19I don't like my tattoos.
04:21When I was young and rebellious, it was cool, you know what I mean?
04:24I'm older now.
04:25Like, it's hard for my children to be around me in daily life.
04:28I made such bad decisions that hurt my children now.
04:32Let me see them.
04:33Let me see them.
04:34Can I?
04:34I have so many.
04:35I try and hide them almost everywhere I go.
04:38Whoa.
04:40I mean, whoa.
04:43Whoa.
04:44If people treated me how I am as a person,
04:47I would never be ashamed of how I look.
04:49Anna has to embrace her tattoos.
04:52She needs to appreciate her body and accept that body.
04:55We're in for a ride, baby.
04:59If you could look like a celebrity, who would you look like?
05:02I think Diana Ross is fabulous.
05:04The boss?
05:05Yes, I want to be the boss.
05:06That's it.
05:07RuPaul is the boss of Drake.
05:08Right.
05:08I'm the undersecretary.
05:11What is your biggest fear in life?
05:14Of just not being able to take care of my daughter.
05:16I lost my mother at a young age from breast cancer when I was like 14.
05:20Mm-hmm.
05:21And the fear of that happening to my daughter and like,
05:23so I'm just really overprotective and I'm just always trying to make sure I'm there for her.
05:28Your life really revolves around your daughter.
05:29Yeah.
05:30This is Alicia's time.
05:32And she can have her daughter and be just as fantastic and fabulous.
05:36When was the last time you really rocked it out in the bedroom?
05:40On my honeymoon.
05:41When was that?
05:4213 years ago.
05:45Holy shazza.
05:46We gotta wake up your vajay day, honey.
05:48Wake up vagina!
05:50Yeah.
05:51Yeah.
05:53Tell me something I will not even know if I was just looking at you.
05:59I have a split tongue.
06:01You do?
06:01Let me see.
06:04I can, like, grab my straw with it.
06:05Do it if you can do it again.
06:06Mmm.
06:08Ugh.
06:09Your boyfriend.
06:10What does he think about that?
06:12I think he likes it.
06:14I get two.
06:14Two's always better than one.
06:16Alright, class.
06:17Time's up.
06:18Pencils down.
06:19Meet me at the Dragulator.
06:22This is the Dragulator.
06:24It will determine your drag name and give you a glimpse at your diva potential.
06:29Michelle, you are up first.
06:31Okay.
06:32Okay.
06:39Commence Dragulation.
06:43Dragulation complete.
06:46Sassy Sausalito.
06:50I'm blonde!
06:51My husband will love it.
06:53Have you ever been a blonde before?
06:55No, I've always wanted to.
06:56It's so fantasy me.
06:58The Dragulator was reading my mind and I got the cleavage going on.
07:03Alright, Alicia.
07:04It's your turn.
07:11Commence Dragulation.
07:14Dragulation complete.
07:18Bianca Baybridge.
07:20Oh, yes.
07:22Hey, sister, soul, sister.
07:24Oh, my God.
07:26That is one of the fiercest I've ever seen.
07:31Professor Morgan McMichaels.
07:33Is it doable?
07:34Oh, it's definitely doable.
07:36Alright.
07:36Last but not least, Anna.
07:39Let me punch in her information.
07:45Commence Dragulation.
07:48Dragulation complete.
07:52Partia Potrero.
07:54Wow.
07:55Do you see yourself in that picture at all?
07:58No.
07:59I don't.
08:01I don't like what I see.
08:03They cover up everything but my tattoos.
08:06When I Dragulate, I want to try and keep them covered up as much as I can.
08:10I don't want to hurt my family.
08:14Coming up.
08:15Good morning, girls.
08:18I'm the queen of Drag U.
08:22And later.
08:27Drag U or you're ready for me.
08:31It's a miracle.
08:33Drag U.
08:34Ladies, it's time for your first class.
08:38You're about to get a lady lesson.
08:44Good morning, girls.
08:47Good morning, Lady Bunny.
08:49Now, Bunny, these overworked moms need to remember to take time to live life to the fullest.
08:55To paraphrase an ancient drag queen, you'd better not work too hard.
09:02Ladies, learn it and learn it well.
09:06For today's lady lesson, let's turn to our Drag U handbook.
09:13Here's some simple tips to turn your daily chores from being a royal pain into a royal pleasure.
09:21Tip number one.
09:23Clean like a queen.
09:25Do the vacuuming in high heels and sexy lingerie.
09:29I could totally do that.
09:31I think it's totally a sexy idea.
09:32You never know.
09:33The postman might stop by at just the right moment with that package you've been waiting on.
09:39Tip number two.
09:41Cheat like a queen.
09:43To spice things up in the bedroom, wear a blonde wig to bed.
09:47Let your men cheat on you with you.
09:50Because I can tell you from my personal experiences, blondes do have more fun.
09:55With the exception of Pandora Box.
09:57And unlike Morgan, do not choose a blonde wig with lice.
10:02They got you.
10:04Now that you've seen a few ways to glam up your daily chores, I want you to put it into
10:09action.
10:09Working with your professors, bedazzle an apron into something worthy of a queen.
10:15You have 20 minutes.
10:17Go!
10:19It's now time for you to hot glue for your life.
10:25Hot!
10:25Are you burning yourself?
10:28I burned my queen!
10:31Beauty's pain.
10:32Feel the glamour.
10:33Smell the glamour.
10:34Glamour the smell?
10:35It smells a little like sin and regret.
10:37Squeeze.
10:38Squeeze like you're squeezing some balls.
10:41Chef balls, of course.
10:43Let's see these bedazzling kitchen aprons.
10:47Up first, Alicia.
10:49Woo-hoo!
10:51Hi, kids!
10:52A hooker's serving you dinner tonight.
10:54Thank you, Alicia.
10:55Next up, Anna.
10:58The tiara and the bow are stunning.
11:00Would you wear this at home?
11:01If I splurge on a babysitter?
11:03That takes the children away?
11:04Yes!
11:05That's called adoption.
11:07Next up, Michelle.
11:10We better neuter this kitty.
11:11This mama is in heat.
11:13And of course, there's an oversized Brillo pad as a cape for quick clean-up.
11:17I like the lesson a lot because I can make it work for me in my real life.
11:21It's like making a little more effort to be feminine and taking a little more time for me.
11:26And that's today's lady lesson.
11:28Bye!
11:34So I hope this area right here will cover up my midsection.
11:38We here at Drag, you get hooked up by corsetconnection.com.
11:41And they're amazing.
11:42They give you great shape.
11:43Okay.
11:43But you do realize that they're not just clothes.
11:45It's a whole attitude.
11:46Drag is an attitude.
11:47This woman is loud and insane.
11:49Okay.
11:49You have to be louder.
11:51I really need Alicia to come out of her shell.
11:53So I'm making her get loud, honey.
11:56I dare you to scream across the room.
11:58I am the queen of drag you.
12:01Now?
12:01Yeah.
12:02I am the queen of drag you.
12:07Don't you hear me?
12:10Scream.
12:10Scream it.
12:11I am the queen.
12:12I am the queen of drag you.
12:17No, you're not.
12:18I am the queen of drag you.
12:20Who says?
12:21You have to continue to get louder and louder and louder and louder.
12:24Oh, yeah.
12:24I got it.
12:25Oh, boy.
12:28Wow.
12:28So what do you see when you look in the mirror?
12:30I see potential.
12:33I see potential.
12:33Potential is good.
12:34Yeah.
12:35Now what do you see when you look in the mirror?
12:37I see a tired mom again.
12:40Have you always felt this way?
12:42I've always been the person who sort of blended into the woodwork.
12:46I have the twin and she takes care of herself.
12:48She makes it a priority and I don't.
12:51So that's sort of been my lot in life is to be the dowdy one.
12:55I would like to say that I don't compare myself to my sister, but I do.
12:58Especially physically because she's thinner than me.
13:01I want you to be able to look in the mirror and not see exhaustion
13:04and to really feel the love that you do have for yourself.
13:08I do.
13:09You definitely do.
13:13I think my girl and your girl should have a little walk off.
13:16I'm down for the fight.
13:17Why don't you go start over there?
13:19I'm going to start over here?
13:19Yes.
13:20I haven't fallen down one time yet.
13:22I just want to let you know.
13:24Nice try.
13:24But my girl is going to win right now.
13:26Baby.
13:26Let's go.
13:27You know how we do it, don't you?
13:28Three, two, one.
13:35Well, it's clear that I'm the winner.
13:38You think so, don't you?
13:40Anna tripped.
13:41I win.
13:42See you, Dragulation girl.
13:45Coming up.
13:46Thresh, thrash.
13:47Ooh.
13:48Are you having a hard time with the balance?
13:51I'm thinking, uh-oh.
13:53You have the scarification around your neck.
13:57Well, why would you do that to yourself?
14:01Here's the drag queen's secret on how to hit the town without a pocketbook.
14:06Carry a small lipstick in your cleavage.
14:10Stash your cash and ID inside your pump.
14:12Tuck a condom, or two, or three, into your panty.
14:17Now you can keep your hands free for more important things.
14:21Ah.
14:22Ah.
14:22Yeah.
14:23Drag, you know you're headed for me.
14:28It's empirical.
14:33Drag, you...
14:36I love it.
14:37All of these shiny, shiny things.
14:38Look at this.
14:39When was the last time you were intimate with someone?
14:43Eight years ago.
14:44Excuse me?
14:45Eight years.
14:49Eight years.
14:54So are you celibate?
14:56Yep.
14:57I'm celibate.
14:57I celibate here, celibate there.
15:01I can't wear my sweat socks with them, can I?
15:03Um, probably not.
15:06Oh boy.
15:08How do they feel?
15:09Like I'm tipping over.
15:11See if you can take a few steps.
15:16Ooh.
15:18Watching Michelle walk is like watching Jurassic Park Part 4.
15:27Felt good.
15:28If it's feeling good, that's good.
15:30Now we just have to make it look good as well.
15:32But you're getting it.
15:33Okay.
15:34Girl, you got some legs, honey.
15:37So what's the history of the tattoos?
15:39I grew up very super Mormon.
15:41Like the youngest of seven kids.
15:43Mm-hmm.
15:44So like the tattoos were definitely a way to like show my mom
15:46that I could do what I wanted with myself.
15:48You know what I mean?
15:49Why did you feel caged?
15:50Is that how you felt?
15:52Like he always was telling me everything about me was bad.
15:55Anna needs to embrace the tattoos
15:58because it is such an important part of her life.
16:02Are you a free spirit?
16:03Yeah.
16:03Do you celebrate life?
16:04Always.
16:05You need to celebrate your body.
16:07And we need to let these kids see their mom in her glory
16:11and be able to celebrate their mom.
16:15Well, hello, Ladykin.
16:17Hi, Rue.
16:18So, Michelle.
16:19Yeah.
16:20You look like sort of a sassy Southern California beach girl.
16:24Hello.
16:26What?
16:27Arr.
16:29Where are you drawing inspiration for Sassy Sausalito?
16:32From music, mostly.
16:34Like what music?
16:35People used to say I look like Pat Benatar.
16:37So I would wear a leather jacket sometimes over leopard skin dress.
16:40And, you know, I felt like...
16:42Invincible.
16:42I did.
16:43I felt really powerful.
16:45Well, great.
16:45That's a great place to start.
16:47We belong, heartbreaker.
16:50Hey, Alicia.
16:52Hey.
16:52Is this the look you're going for?
16:53We're trying to decide if we're going to go with the Dragulator made for me
16:56or the Diana Ross.
16:57Ooh.
16:58Morgan, how's she doing?
16:59She's very, very positive.
17:01But she's not bringing the fears.
17:04I'm like, Morgan, you haven't seen nothing yet.
17:08Wow, Diana Ross.
17:11Mahogany!
17:14That was supreme.
17:17So, Anna, the Dragulator look was half-dress, half-mint suit jacket.
17:22Big question.
17:23Are you going to show your tattoos or not?
17:25We haven't decided yet.
17:27We're still on the fence.
17:28Now, Bibi, has she been a cooperative student?
17:30She is just a gem.
17:33I'm just so excited working with her.
17:34And she's ready for the challenge.
17:36I'm happy to have a student who is ready.
17:38Anna, you seem to be getting a little choked up.
17:40I've never had someone be so nice to me for no reason.
17:44I feel that she just wants me to be happy with myself.
17:47And, um, it's not something I am.
17:49It breaks my heart to hear that you don't feel that way about yourself today.
17:53Maybe tomorrow.
17:54See, there's optimism in those words.
17:56That's our creed here at Drag U.
17:59All right, ladies.
18:00Now it's time to step away from your outfits.
18:02Put on your iron fist shoes and meet me at dance class.
18:08Where are my girls at?
18:10Make your heels clap.
18:13Well.
18:14It's dance class.
18:16Time to see what this mama's got in the bag.
18:20Class, I'd like you to meet our Dean of Dance, Jamal Sims.
18:23Hi, Jamal.
18:24Hi, Jamal.
18:24Hi, Jamal.
18:25Jamal has worked with Britney Spears, JLo, and Madonna.
18:28And he's gonna get you mothers to dance like those Gucci mamas.
18:33He's gonna prepare you for your final dragzamination.
18:36A full-on lip-sync performance in front of a live audience, including your family and friends.
18:42So, Jamal, what song have you chosen to set these mothers free?
18:47Hit Me With Your Best Shot by Pat Minotone.
18:51Wow.
18:51I am so excited.
18:53She's sexy, and she's a rock and roller, and I can really connect with that.
18:57Jamal, let them have it.
19:00Let's go.
19:00All right.
19:01This is a day that you've had the last straw with your kids.
19:05You are done with it.
19:07All right?
19:07So, first one we go.
19:09Pick up the toys.
19:10Pick up the toys.
19:11Clean the room.
19:12Clean the room.
19:13Pick up the toys.
19:14Pick up the toys.
19:14Clean the room.
19:15Clean the room.
19:16Clean the room.
19:17What?
19:17Clean the room.
19:18Clean the room.
19:18Clean the room.
19:19I didn't know I had so much steam to blow off until now.
19:22You're going to give me Hit Me With Your Best Shot.
19:26And we're going to make a gun right here, okay?
19:28Five, six, seven, thrash, thrash, thrash, thrash, point.
19:34Alicia, I want you to give me a little more bend of the knee.
19:36Okay.
19:37Bah, bah, bah, ha.
19:39Use your aggression that you have towards your ex, honey, and put it in this dance.
19:43Hit Me With Your Best Shot.
19:45Nice.
19:46Yeah.
19:47Anna.
19:48Yes.
19:49Let me see you do it.
19:49Come on.
19:51Ah, ah, huh, ah.
19:54Uh-oh.
19:55Yeah.
19:56I see that little booty action right there.
19:58Anna is doing great with the moves.
20:00She's putting some soul into it.
20:04Michelle, let me see you.
20:05Five, six, seven, eight, thrash, thrash.
20:08Ooh.
20:10Are you having a hard time with the balance?
20:11Yeah, I don't know why.
20:13I'm thinking, uh-oh.
20:15She's still a little wobbly on the heels.
20:17Let's get the queens up here to show you how it's done.
20:20Moms, this is how you do thrash dance.
20:22She says, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
20:25Everybody, come on, dance!
20:27Hey!
20:28Michelle better work her mom jeans off.
20:31I lost quite enough on Drag Race.
20:33I am not losing this competition.
20:38After dance class, me and the moms went back to hang out and talk, mostly about how sore our feet
20:45were.
20:45So, have you decided if you're gonna cover up all your tattoos for Draguation, or?
20:49I-I-I haven't decided yet.
20:51I mean, I don't know that I'm ready to put my kids through that.
20:55You don't cover them up every day when you take them to school.
20:58Yeah, I do. I absolutely do.
20:59But that means that you're ashamed of them.
21:00I mean, it does look like you're hurting yourself.
21:03What do you mean?
21:04I mean, you have the scarification around your neck.
21:07It looks like somebody choked you.
21:09Yeah, like, that's not my intuition.
21:10Well, why would you do that to yourself?
21:14I don't mean to look that way.
21:16It wasn't because I wanted people to look at me and be like,
21:18wow, that girl's tough.
21:19Or, wow, that girl hurts herself.
21:21It was because, the simple reason, I didn't like looking at myself in the mirror.
21:25It hurt me to look at myself.
21:26And when I put pretty pink and purple stars on my face, that was pretty to look at.
21:31I would rather look at that pretty symbol than at myself.
21:34I felt a little sad for her.
21:36I didn't like that she was doing that to her body.
21:38I sort of wanted to protect her from herself.
21:41After talking to the girls, I'm just not so sure I want to show my tattoos anymore.
21:46Coming up.
21:47I've twisted my ankle.
21:48And I can't stand on it.
21:53Michelle says some kind of hurtful things about my tattoos.
21:58And now, a word from the president of Drag U, RuPaul.
22:05Pooch.
22:07This has been a word from President RuPaul.
22:11Drag U, are you ready for me?
22:15Here we come.
22:17Drag U.
22:23What happened, Michelle?
22:24I went home and practiced and twisted my ankle.
22:29And I can't stand on it.
22:31It's Draguation Day and I'm upset because I really want to do well.
22:34I do not envy you for a second.
22:37Yeah, I'm sort of just trying to get through it.
22:40Darling!
22:40Hello!
22:44I see Michelle with her leg up and I think, we might have a problem.
22:48So are you able to stand at all?
22:53Oh, boy.
22:54Ow.
22:55Okay.
22:55Do you think it's going to be possible to wear a heel and have it wrapped?
23:00Oh, no.
23:04Hi, Alicia.
23:05Come on in.
23:07What was your relationship like with your mother?
23:11Oh, good.
23:12Is it anything like the one with your daughter?
23:15No.
23:16Because I think that with my mother, because I lost her at a young age, like from breast cancer,
23:21I'm with my daughter all the time.
23:22I want her to have like all these great memories.
23:23You drive her to tennis lessons and to dance classes and other activities.
23:28It doesn't leave a lot of time for you.
23:30No.
23:30And you know what's even dumber?
23:31I sit in the car.
23:33You can't give to anyone else unless you're giving to yourself first.
23:36You really can't live your life through your child's life because it's actually not fair to her.
23:42Right.
23:42And more importantly, it's not fair to you.
23:45I realized that I can't live my life through my daughter.
23:48And I think that there would be more time to do some things for myself.
23:54So, last night after we were dancing, we all came back and we were like talking to me and the
23:59girls.
23:59And Michelle says some kind of hurtful things about my tattoos.
24:03And I don't think she's a bad person, but I'm going to tell you.
24:06Like at first it upset me, and then it gave me this like fire.
24:09Not everybody is going to be the way you want them to be.
24:11But first and foremost, you need to be comfortable with it.
24:15You really do. You have to be comfortable with all of this.
24:18It's almost like we needed Michelle to say that as a motivating factor today to do what we need to
24:25do.
24:25She is not letting these words affect her.
24:28Bring it, girl.
24:32Hey, Michelle.
24:33Hi.
24:33Oh, sweetie, you hurt your ankle, didn't you?
24:35Yeah.
24:36Will you be able to wear high heels?
24:38I'm not really sure.
24:39If you can power through draguation, you will probably be fine.
24:43I don't want to just power through. I want to win.
24:44I get this sassiness from you that I have a feeling you don't get enough opportunities to show.
24:51Yeah.
24:52Why is that?
24:54I'm so sorry.
24:55No, it's all right.
24:57That's why you're here is we want to get to the bottom of all of this of why you've put
25:03yourself last.
25:04I try to focus on maintaining normalcy that I didn't have when I was younger.
25:10To be able to mother my children the way I wanted to be mothered.
25:15I got to tell you, normal doesn't mean boring.
25:18Yeah.
25:19And sassy's not boring.
25:20Yeah.
25:20It's really a shift in attitude.
25:22It's as simple as that.
25:23Yeah.
25:24I realized that there's a lot about me that I've been ignoring for a long time.
25:29I feel like I've been reborn, like there's a part of me that's awakened now that wasn't before.
25:33I brought you a little present.
25:36Ta-da.
25:38Dominatrix equals power.
25:39I'm going to work this to the best of my ability.
25:43Well, yeah, you're not slapping a horse's ass.
25:44You're supposed to be slapping a man's.
25:46I love the whip.
25:47The whip is making me feel more fierce.
25:50And be a bitch.
25:51Yes.
25:53Tell me this.
25:54Who or what is your saboteur?
25:56I would say other people for judging me, but I'm my saboteur.
26:00Tell me about the tattoos.
26:01Do you still like them?
26:03I love my tattoos.
26:04They're gifts.
26:05But I felt like people judged my children because of me, which hurts me so much.
26:10It makes me cry all the time.
26:13What other people think of me is none of my business.
26:17And that's something I practice daily.
26:20I'm okay to be this.
26:23Because this is okay.
26:24Yeah.
26:25I realize exactly what RuPaul said.
26:28Like when people have something bad to say about me, that's not my problem.
26:32That's their problem.
26:34This feels too archy.
26:36Okay.
26:36No, this, ow, this one's not gonna work.
26:38Okay.
26:39Try these.
26:42This has less of an arch, so this might work.
26:47Um, I don't feel steady on these at all.
26:48Okay.
26:49I've worked so hard to get Michelle where she is now.
26:52And this twisted ankle is gonna ruin everything we've done.
26:55Right now, I'm not that confident about dancing.
27:05I want my daughter to see me having fun on stage and to leave knowing what a powerful woman is.
27:11I've seen my mom dance and sing around the house, but I've never seen her on a stage before.
27:16I really hope my mom wins.
27:18I'm a little nervous because I'm worried about being able to dance and not fall down.
27:25I cannot wait to see Michelle young and vivacious again, like when I first met her.
27:30I'm feeling so nervous.
27:32Like, all I want to do is, like, make my family proud.
27:36I'm excited to see my mom on stage.
27:38She doesn't wear dresses a lot.
27:44Faculty, friends, and family.
27:46It's time to draguate, bitches.
27:50Drag U, are you ready for me?
27:54It's a miracle, drag U.
27:59Faculty, friends, and family.
28:01Please welcome your Drag U professors, Pandora Box, Morgan McMichaels, and B.B. Zahara-Binet.
28:07And the president of Drag U, RuPaul.
28:13Welcome to RuPaul's Drag U.
28:16Now, here to evaluate my girls are the faculty.
28:19Our dean of drag, the lady Bunny, is here.
28:22Now, Bunny, your mom is still working, right?
28:25Well, you don't exactly retire from a life sentence.
28:30Our dean of dance, Jamal Sims, is here.
28:34And our visiting professor, Carney Wilson, is here.
28:41Now, during their time here at Drag U, our class worked hard to make this a Mother's Day we'll never
28:48forget.
28:49Now, let the draguation commence.
28:52Michelle was a mom who always put herself last, but now she's a MILF, and she's having a blast.
28:58Ladies and gentlemen, Saucy Sassalito.
29:14When I came to Drag U, I was a tired mommy who needed a boost, but I rediscovered my sassy.
29:21This blonde bombshell is ready to go.
29:26I can't even believe this is the same tired mom that came in.
29:30And now, Michelle looks like a true diva.
29:37Alicia spent all of her time caring for her daughter.
29:40Now she's recharged, and she couldn't be hotter.
29:43Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Miss Bianca Baybridge.
29:52My courses here at Drag U have reminded me that I love to dance and prance.
29:57And I'm not just a drive-in, working, cooking machine.
30:01The next time I serve something up, it's gonna be me.
30:04And mm-mm-mm, it sure is gonna be good.
30:09Alicia is letting the judges know she's the one in charge.
30:13RuPaul, you better watch out, honey.
30:20And now the work's mom, Anna, came to drag you none too soon.
30:25Now she is a gorgeous beauty, thanks to the queen of Cameroon.
30:31Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Portia Potrera.
30:40Before I arrived, I would hide my tattoos.
30:43But Ru and Bibi showed me I have nothing to hide.
30:46This Portia's ready to drive off into the sunset.
30:49She loves the skin she's in.
30:53Precious looking fierce.
30:56I'm a proud African queen.
31:06Draguets, now begins your oral examination.
31:10Sassy Sausalito, the sass is back. How do you feel?
31:14I feel like this is where I belong.
31:21And what's your favorite part of the outfit?
31:24I love being a blonde.
31:27This is staying.
31:29Draguets, let's go to Lady Bunny.
31:31Girl, you can not only walk in those heels, but you get extra credit for doing it with a sprained
31:35ankle.
31:39But after this, you need to elevate that leg.
31:42In fact, elevate both of them. I think your husband will help.
31:46I love you, the blonde, and I almost feel this almost like Marilyn Monroe kind of thing.
31:50I feel that way.
31:51It's like a subtle sexiness that's great.
31:53It is a gift to you, you know, so keep it with you because it's beautiful.
31:56Thank you, judges.
31:58Bianca Bay Bridge. Girl, you are a wild animal. How do you feel?
32:02I feel on fire.
32:05I just feel so powerful.
32:07I couldn't even believe it was me. It was like an out-of-body experience.
32:09Now, were you channeling your Diana Ross?
32:12If she was this fierce, uh...
32:17I love the kitten with the whip persona, and you're so dominant that you're like,
32:21I'm not even going to hit you with the writing crop because I know you'd like that too much.
32:26I'm gonna throw it at you.
32:28You came with the bondage moment, and you're giving me everything I need. I love it.
32:32Yeah, jungle love for sure.
32:35I think this really is a self-confidence booster for you, and I love that because as moms, we know
32:41we lose that, and we need that.
32:43And I really felt that from you. You just sparkle.
32:46Thank you, Falcati.
32:48Hey, Portia Potrero. What's the best part of your experience here at Drag U?
32:53Seeing Carl's face.
32:56And who else is here to cheer you on?
32:57I have Tatea, and Ryan, and then Jonah, who's my littlest.
33:00What was the best part of your experience here at Drag U?
33:04I'm gonna be dang honest with you. Like, you've changed my life. You and BB have changed my life. I've
33:09connected with BB in ways I could never ever imagine.
33:13Portia, you are fired. When you came through, I saw flames. I love, love, love it. Yes, great job.
33:20I feel like Portia's been hiding in you, really wanting to come out, and she's definitely out. Congratulations.
33:27Ladies, it's time for your final dragxamination.
33:31Whoever kills it in the group performance could finish at the top of her class.
33:36So don't flunk it up.
33:48Falcati family and friends, as president of Drag U, it is my honor to present the Draguating class.
33:57Ladies, let them have it.
