00:02Good morning, professors!
00:03What's so good about it?
00:06A new class is arriving, ready to change their lives
00:10through the miracle of drag.
00:13Today we have adult women who still dress
00:16like their little children.
00:19I'm going to need the help of three of you professors
00:21to turn the clock forward and get these lady girls
00:25to sass up their everyday drag and grow the hell up.
00:29Let's take a look.
00:32I'm Christy, I'm 31, but I often get mistaken for 16.
00:36I'd love to surprise my boyfriend and look hot,
00:38but I don't know how, so I need Drag U to help me
00:41pull off a sexy, age-appropriate look.
00:45I'm MJ, and at 33 years old, I'm still 4'11 and 92 pounds.
00:51I cannot find any clothes that fit me except in the little girls' section.
00:55I would really like Drag U to teach me how to dress
00:59like a grown woman so I can find a man.
01:02Please help me!
01:03My name's Nicole. I'm a 28-year-old stay-at-home mom.
01:07After three failed marriages, I basically gave up on style.
01:10Even though my children think I'm beautiful in my jeans and T-shirts,
01:13I don't see any beauty there.
01:15I'm hoping Drag U can help me grow up into the beautiful woman
01:17that I was always meant to be.
01:23Welcome to RuPaul's Drag U.
01:26Like forever young Peter Pan, you lost girls have refused to grow up.
01:32We want to give you the ability to escape Never Never Land
01:35and fly into your full potential.
01:38You know, like a butterfly wings, just flying.
01:42But RuPaul's Drag U, like the real world, is a competition.
01:46You'll be evaluated on your DPA, your drag point average.
01:51D is for drag transformation.
01:52P is for performance.
01:54And A is your attitude adjustments.
01:56Now you have 48 hours until your Draguation.
01:59And in the end, only one of you will Draguate with top honors
02:03and walk away with a fabulous Drag U scholarship.
02:07Hey, Jaliza, tell us what you'll win.
02:09Our top Draguate will receive a year's supply of custom makeup
02:13by Cinema Secrets Professional Cosmetics
02:15and a $1,000 gift card for fashions from Overstock.com.
02:20And that's not all.
02:21The top Draguate will also receive $3,166.66.
02:28Now, are you ready to do whatever it takes
02:31to become the baddest bitch in school?
02:33Yes.
02:34Can I get a...
02:34Hey!
02:37First stop, the Drag Lab.
02:39Walk this way.
02:44No, really, walk this way.
02:46It's fun.
02:46Let's go.
02:48Stretch them as door.
02:52This is the Drag Lab.
02:56Here you'll find everything you'll need
02:58for your diva transformation
03:00with more queeny costumes and severe makeup
03:04than gay days at Disney World Orlando.
03:07But the most important fact chore
03:11is your own personal drag professor.
03:15Good morning.
03:16Good morning.
03:18Christy, you're with Pandora Box.
03:21Hi.
03:22I think I'm gonna have to shake that lady awake.
03:25MJ?
03:26Yes?
03:26You're with Latrice Royale.
03:28Got you.
03:29Hello, Latrice.
03:30Cut me a precious.
03:31Which means, Nicole, you're with Raven.
03:34Are you ready?
03:35Oh, I'm ready.
03:35I know how to get s*** done.
03:37These two do not stand a chance.
03:39Now, professors, time to take your students
03:42through drag orientation.
03:44Ladies, this is the beginning
03:46of the rest of your life.
03:50Hey!
03:51You are so...
03:56True or false?
03:57I'm pretty.
03:58True.
03:59You're right.
04:00Okay, so...
04:01Oh, that wasn't the question?
04:02No, it wasn't really.
04:03Oh, okay.
04:03Let's make that one up.
04:04What is the craziest place that you've had sex?
04:09I don't know.
04:10Do you have sex?
04:13Christy's playing the shy girl, but I know there's a prostitute
04:16waiting to get out of her.
04:18I do have this photo here.
04:19Your happy hour look.
04:20Okay.
04:23Do you work in a factory?
04:25No.
04:27You know, you cover your mouth a lot when you smile.
04:29Yeah.
04:29What happened?
04:30My teeth weren't straight when I was in elementary school.
04:33So, they made fun of that.
04:34Yeah.
04:35To draguate with top honors, Christy's going to have to put that hand down and smile,
04:40baby, smile.
04:41What's your most embarrassing moment?
04:45Walking down the street thinking I'm cute and people say,
04:47look at that little girl trying to dress grown.
04:49Why do you feel like men don't take you seriously?
04:53I guess it's because I'm so little and they think that they can run a game,
04:57you know, on me.
04:58And it's like they lay up with me for three years and tell me, oh, I love you.
05:02And then how can you love someone if you're stealing from them?
05:06Stealing?
05:06Stealing.
05:07Can you imagine waking up one day and basically like all your money gone on your birthday?
05:14What?
05:15My ex took away every shred of confidence.
05:17She really needs to get out of that head space and get into some loving arms.
05:24This is your little happy hour look?
05:27Yes.
05:27You go in a happy hour looking like you 12.
05:30If you want them to take you serious, you have to dress serious.
05:33I'm ready to be dragalicious.
05:34You will be sexalicious.
05:36Hey!
05:39What is the craziest thing you've ever done?
05:41I was in a play once where my costume was basically my bra, panties and a bed sheet.
05:47And that's the craziest thing you've ever done?
05:49Unless you count my ex-husbands.
05:51Husband?
05:51Yes.
05:52Was the sex really good?
05:53No.
05:54Then why did you do it?
05:55I basically kept falling into relationships that, you know, I was just desperate for somebody
05:59to love me.
05:59You are engaged right now.
06:01Yes.
06:01And you're engaged for the what number time?
06:04Four.
06:05Girl, I can't get married once and you get married four times.
06:08This is your happy hour look.
06:10Oh my god.
06:11This is what you go out in.
06:12Oh my god, I look like a military commander.
06:14Yeah, you are 28 years old, so definitely need to start dressing a little more age appropriate.
06:19Yeah.
06:19I'm really gonna whip you into shape.
06:20Okay.
06:21Yes, if anybody can, it's going to be Raven.
06:27Ladies, before you can work it as a drag queen, you have to learn how much fun it can be
06:33to dress up.
06:34Using all the colors in the crayon box, I want you to go wild.
06:38Put together a quick drag look.
06:40You have five minutes.
06:42Play!
06:45Okay.
06:46I like how quick you are, girl.
06:47Let's go.
06:47Yes, let's go.
06:48Let's check out the frocks from Dress Empire.
06:51Where's the rest of it?
06:52Really?
06:52Feel your inner drag queen.
06:55Okay, these.
06:57All right, girl, we got it.
06:59Yes, ma'am.
06:59And let's go get it all on.
07:01Those other queens ain't got a clue.
07:03Hurry.
07:04Okay.
07:05I can't find anything that I really like.
07:07These are sequins.
07:09Okay.
07:10Chrissy doesn't even know what a sequin is.
07:12Chop, chop.
07:13Devalicious.
07:14I look up to Latrice because she's eight foot tall with that wig.
07:17Hurry up, girl.
07:18Houston, we have a problem?
07:19No.
07:20No.
07:20Maybe.
07:21No.
07:23Ladies, meet me at the Dragulator.
07:27Chrissy, let's start with you.
07:28Okay.
07:29You've got a lot of stuff going on there.
07:31Oh, yeah.
07:32You've got good legs.
07:33Open up this area here.
07:34Take the hair out of that area there.
07:36Oh, see, that opens you up like that.
07:37Lovely.
07:38MJ.
07:39Wow, so you went with the animal print shoes and animal print dress?
07:43Well, because basically it made me feel sexy.
07:46Well, you look all growed up to me.
07:48Yes.
07:49And last but not least, Nicole.
07:51You chose prom couture.
07:53Yes.
07:54And you got the tuxedo shoes on.
07:56Yes.
07:57Oh, wow.
07:57I love it.
07:58Now, the Dragulator is a highly sophisticated piece of technology.
08:01I input your personal data, and the Dragulator determines your drag name and gives you a glimpse
08:09at the diva you'll unleash and take home.
08:12Christy, are you ready?
08:13Yeah.
08:13I'm really excited.
08:18Coming up.
08:19How about that tush?
08:20Oh.
08:20Oh, no.
08:21There's a booty.
08:22Get it again.
08:23And later.
08:24I've always worried about what people thought of me.
08:26You've had these relationships, but you haven't had a real relationship with yourself.
08:31Drag you while you're headed for me.
08:35It's a miracle.
08:38Drag you.
08:43Christy.
08:44Let's get you Dragulated, darling.
08:48Commence Dragulation.
08:52Dragulation complete.
08:56Dita, devastation.
08:57Hey.
08:58Hey.
08:59Girl.
09:00Wow.
09:00I cannot believe this is me.
09:02Well, what I love about this outfit is that it showcases those beautiful gams,
09:06and it opens up the chest area.
09:08I'm not used to showing so much of the girls.
09:10Well, there's gold in them there heels.
09:13I'm going to have to slap the shy right out of Christy.
09:16MJ, let's Dragulate you.
09:19Okay.
09:21Dragulation complete.
09:24Veronica Van Thunder.
09:26Hey.
09:27Wow.
09:29Body, body, body, baby.
09:31Wow.
09:32You chose something similar to what the Dragulator was going to do to you anyway.
09:36I look like a grown woman.
09:38You do.
09:39And the length of that dress is perfect to make your legs look really tall.
09:43Remember this the next time you go shopping.
09:45I love it.
09:46Have you ever worn a push-up bra and shown that much cleavage?
09:50I don't have enough, you know.
09:52See, that is where you are wrong.
09:53Have you ever seen my little boys who turn into girls?
09:55I have less than you have.
09:57Can we do that to me?
09:58Oh, hell yeah.
09:59Okay.
10:01Nicole.
10:02Yes.
10:02All right, let's take a look.
10:06Danielle Devine.
10:07Holy freaking crap.
10:09Whoa.
10:10I love all of the leopard print and that belt.
10:13It gives a sort of a 40s retro look, but it's also very young and sexy.
10:17I didn't know I could look like that.
10:20Girl, I guess you can.
10:21It's you and it's possible.
10:24I cannot believe that is me.
10:26I mean, GTFO.
10:28Get the frock out.
10:29All right, ladies.
10:30It's time to ditch your quick drag and get ready for your first lady lesson.
10:40Allow me to introduce our dean of drag, the Lady Bunny.
10:46Good morning, girls.
10:48Good morning, Lady Bunny.
10:49Now, Lady Bunny, these girls need help because they refuse to grow up.
10:54Ladies, learn it and learn it well.
10:57For today's lady lesson, let's turn to the Drag U Handbook.
11:05Oh, my.
11:06It's Dr. Ray, a.k.a. Dr. 90210.
11:10Ooh.
11:11Not only is he an accomplished author, surgeon, and TV star,
11:15he's got the tools to reshape your body without going under the knife.
11:20What area of your body is bothering you?
11:22My belly over here is stomach area.
11:23This area, the abdominal area, is an area that torments a lot of women.
11:28I have just a solution for this problem.
11:30Very inexpensive and it's amazing.
11:33Call Dr. Ray shapewear.
11:34This is a high waist brief.
11:37It is a tummy and waist shaper.
11:38Basically, it smooths the tummy and the back bulges.
11:41So, why don't you try this on and let's see what happens.
11:44All right, sounds good.
11:45All right, MJ, you're up.
11:46What area is bothering you?
11:48My little boys and my butt.
11:50All my girl wants is to be a little Beyonce in the club, baby.
11:53Give her a little booty, baby.
11:55MJ, check this out.
11:56To shape and define your butt, try this butt enhancing brief.
12:00It has these removal pads.
12:02It's going to make the butt super pretty.
12:04Anything that enhances my booty is fabulous.
12:07If you need help lifting your bottom, Dr. Ray, call me.
12:12All right, MJ.
12:13To enhance your breasts, try this plunge halter bra.
12:15It creates a cleavage like a push-up bra with the halter strap.
12:20You want to give it a try?
12:20I'm ready.
12:21Nicole, you're up next.
12:23What is your problem, Mary?
12:25My thunder thighs.
12:25That's probably one of the most difficult areas to get rid of.
12:28But do not stress because this one is for you.
12:31Okay.
12:31This is a highway step in.
12:33It offers total support from under the bust all the way down to your knees.
12:37It cinches in your stomach.
12:38It cinches into your thighs.
12:40Shall we try it on?
12:41Yes.
12:41Ta-da!
12:43You look beautiful.
12:46Outer thigh controlled.
12:48Inner thigh controlled.
12:50Looks great.
12:51How do you feel?
12:52I feel fantastic.
12:53I'm actually planning on using my Dr. Ray shapewear for my upcoming wedding.
12:57Christy?
12:58Class.
12:59Notice that little bulge a lot of women suffer from.
13:02Gone.
13:03Fat.
13:04Nice and supported.
13:05And how do you feel?
13:06Can you breathe?
13:07I feel great.
13:08Girl, that gives her a little bit of a figure.
13:10Let's see what happened.
13:11Oh.
13:12Oh.
13:13You wanted a bigger chest.
13:14Look what happened.
13:15I see you.
13:15Look how poofy and pretty.
13:16I see you.
13:17How about that tush?
13:18Oh no!
13:19Oh, look at her little booty.
13:21It's a little starter booty, but it's a booty kitty, girl.
13:24How do you feel?
13:25I'm ready to get out there and find a man.
13:27I am never taking the shapewear at all.
13:29You ladies look great.
13:31Dr. Ray, I think I need a little nip and tuck.
13:34Heavy on the tuck.
13:36Back in my office.
13:37And that concludes today's lady lesson.
13:39Bye-bye!
13:40Bye!
13:42Coming up.
13:43Go!
13:43Three and four.
13:44Don't stop.
13:45Let's go again.
13:46Up, down, up, down.
13:47Uh-oh, all right.
13:48We're getting frustrated.
13:49Let's go.
13:50How are we gonna do this in 24 hours?
13:53And now a word from the president of Drag U, RuPaul.
13:57Conflama.
13:59Is Conflama A an atrocity against conmen?
14:02B when conflict turns into major drama?
14:06Or C spontaneously combusting wearing only a padded brassiere?
14:10The answer when Drag U returns.
14:12Drag U, are you heading for me?
14:16So what does Conflama mean?
14:19B when conflict turns into major drama?
14:23The Conflama never ends on RuPaul's Drag Race untucked.
14:28This has been a word from President RuPaul.
14:30It's a miracle.
14:33It's a miracle.
14:33Drag U.
14:38What do you think about Dita Devastation?
14:41She's hot.
14:41How do you feel about your décolletage being out and open and not in a t-shirt?
14:47A little risky.
14:48What do your ladyberries think about it?
14:50Let me listen.
14:51We would like to be out in the open and breathe.
14:53I'm sorry.
14:55For me to become Dita Devastation, I'm going to need Pandora Box to just show me the way.
15:02Veronica Van Thunder.
15:03I love it, but I'm kind of scared of it.
15:06You just embrace your sexy and bring Veronica Van Thunder the hell on out.
15:10Okay.
15:11We're going to get you fixed up.
15:12We got these lovely Michael Levine fabrics.
15:15As long as Latrice is standing behind me, I can woman up.
15:18All right, Diva.
15:19How are you feeling about this?
15:20I did not know I could look like that.
15:21You look 28.
15:22You don't look 18.
15:24Yeah.
15:24I know it's easier said than done, but I know that you can do it.
15:28I really think that Raven will help me drag you weight with top honors.
15:31These horses are great from corsetconnection.com.
15:34A corset?
15:35Seriously?
15:35Tell me when you can't breathe anymore.
15:37I'm getting close to that.
15:40Latrice, girl.
15:41Hey, boo-boo.
15:42The hair.
15:44You got Miss MJ hidden up in there?
15:46Oh, you got jokes.
15:47Did you mess with me?
15:48Girl, your makeup looks sickening.
15:50You in a rush this morning?
15:51Why are you trying me?
15:54You need to get to work with Miss MJ.
15:55Pull her out that hair and get to work on me.
15:57And you need to send your hair right back to the 80s, bitch.
15:59Oh.
16:00Have you ever danced before?
16:01Like this?
16:02Like that?
16:03Oh.
16:03Oh.
16:03That's like the reverse of sexy.
16:05Come hell or high water, I'm pulling Christy out of her shell.
16:12Well, hello, Ladykins.
16:14Hello.
16:15Hey.
16:15You're born naked and the rest is drag.
16:17So I'm here to help you with your everyday drag looks.
16:21Let's get you into something more age-appropriate.
16:24Let's start with Christy.
16:26Now this is your current happy hour look.
16:29Ooh.
16:31Here are two new options.
16:33You get to choose one.
16:35Mod.
16:36A sequined cocktail dress with a long retro necklace.
16:40Gives you a petite feminine look.
16:42Or sophisticated.
16:44An asymmetrical lace dress with a ribbon belt.
16:47I like it.
16:49Up next, MJ.
16:50Now this is your current happy hour look.
16:54Womp, womp, womp.
16:55Now here are two new options.
16:59Trendy.
17:00A tight dress with leather-capped sleeves and snakeskin belt.
17:05Or flirtatious.
17:07A mini dress with silver hardware shoulder detail.
17:11Both enhance your curves for a more mature look.
17:14And last but not least, Nicole.
17:17Now this is your current happy hour look.
17:19Ooh.
17:21Ah.
17:22Here are two new options.
17:25Tempting.
17:26A flowing knee-length dress with an embellished neckline.
17:30Or enticing.
17:31A v-neck party dress with lace detailing.
17:35Both are super sexy in a very adult-only way.
17:39Choose wisely.
17:41Pandora, who provided these fabulous fashions?
17:44Why, AMI club wear, of course.
17:47Of course.
17:49Ladies, your homework assignment is to pick the outfit that pushes your boundaries and leaves the judges gagging.
17:56But now, put on your boogie shoes and meet me at dance class.
18:01Where are my girls at?
18:03Make your heels clap.
18:06Class, I'd like you to meet our Dean of Dance, Jamal Sims.
18:09Now, Jamal has choreographed Jennifer Lopez and Usher, and now he's going to help you dig deep and shake it
18:17up.
18:17Jamal, what song have you chosen to set these women free?
18:20We have a little flash dance.
18:22What a feeling?
18:23Yes.
18:23Oh, my God.
18:24I love Irene Cara.
18:26Now, class, Jamal will also be judging your final performance.
18:29And he don't want to see no half-stepping.
18:31You hear what I'm saying?
18:31Yes.
18:32Okay.
18:33Jamal, let them have it.
18:35Let's go.
18:36All right, ladies.
18:37We're going to work on a signature move.
18:39I want you guys to celebrate being beautiful, grown, and sexy.
18:43Up, down, up, down, and chop, chop, chop.
18:45Let's go again.
18:47I am very nervous to perform in front of friends and family.
18:50Go one, go two, go three, and four.
18:52MJ's problem is that she's still doing the dance style like she did when she was 13 years old.
18:56Go five, go six, go seven, and eight.
18:59You almost had it.
19:00Okay.
19:00But you're looking down, okay?
19:02I feel like we're going way too fast with the dancing.
19:04One, two, Chrissy needs to look up and present like a woman.
19:09One, two, three.
19:11Uh-oh, don't stop.
19:12Let's go again.
19:13Go one, go two, go three, and four.
19:15Dang it.
19:16Ah.
19:17I'm thinking Nicole has this in the back, but after seeing her dance...
19:21Up, crawl, down.
19:22All right, we're getting frustrated.
19:24Let's go.
19:24Oh, my God.
19:25I am freaking out and wanting to run out the door in the heels if I only knew how to.
19:31Go three, and four, up, five, six, seven, eight.
19:35That is neither a flash nor dance.
19:38We got a lot of work to do, ladies.
19:40Practice, practice, practice.
19:42How the mother hell are we going to do this in 24 hours?
19:46Coming up.
19:47Men tell me, oh, you're a little girl, so this is why I feel ugly.
19:50Well, that's bull .
19:52Is your body rejecting schlumpadinka clothes?
19:55It's rejecting the schlump.
19:57Yes.
19:58Here's a sassy drag queen tip to make sure you can easily remove your acrylic claws.
20:04Apply three coats of polish to your real nails.
20:07When dry, apply your fabulous pre-painted fakes with instant glue.
20:12To remove your lady claws, just peel away.
20:17They're stuck to the nail polish and not stuck to you.
20:20I'm Professor Needles, and that's your drag tip of the day.
20:40Oh, God, I didn't mess up.
20:43I'm starting to get nervous.
20:44Oh, .
20:45Good morning.
20:47Good morning.
20:48How are you?
20:49Good morning.
20:50Good morning.
20:52It's draguation day, bitches.
20:54How are you feeling this morning?
20:55I'm feeling so much better than I was feeling yesterday.
20:58I can tell.
20:59It feels weird, actually, putting on my normal clothes.
21:01Is your body rejecting schlumpadinka clothes?
21:04It is.
21:05It's rejecting the schlump.
21:06Yes.
21:07How do you feel today?
21:09I'm really wondering if I can pull it off.
21:11What are you wondering if you can pull it off?
21:14I just don't want to embarrass myself and fall in them heels.
21:17Girl, that's the least of your problems.
21:19MJ got the dance down, but she needs to get the confidence up.
21:25Is it tough out there?
21:26It's a lot of work.
21:27Well, I want to know all about Dita.
21:30Dita, devastation is a powerhouse, and she doesn't take anybody's crap, and she just has a good time.
21:36Why haven't you become a grown-ass woman before?
21:39Because I didn't have the right person to guide me.
21:42Now, what were your teen years like?
21:43I got made fun of a lot.
21:45I remember countless nights just crying to sleep, like, why are they so mean to me?
21:48Have you been teased as an adult?
21:50Yeah.
21:50Well, you realize there are nasty people.
21:52Oh, yeah, for sure.
21:53And you have to realize also that it has nothing to do with you.
21:55Yeah.
21:55It's a reflection of their own self-loathing projected outwardly.
22:00I'm a very sensitive person.
22:01Overly sensitive is a good thing, but you have to temper it with being logical.
22:06My mama said, unless they're going to pay your bills, pay them no mind.
22:10And Dita, devastation is your secret weapon with this.
22:14She's going to deflect all of that negativity, and she's going to say,
22:18uh, kiddo, that had nothing to do with you.
22:21Keep walking.
22:21And I want to see Dita devastation on that runway.
22:24I want to see mass destruction.
22:26Okay.
22:27You're dismissed.
22:28Ru tells me it's okay to be a sensitive person.
22:31It's beautiful.
22:32And being free with that and not caring about what anybody else has to say.
22:36I want to know how you're doing with the dance.
22:38A lot better.
22:39Okay.
22:39I don't fall now.
22:40I know the moves.
22:41Are you doing them very sexy and seductively, or do you still look like a robot?
22:46Probably a little robotic still, but I'm starting to feel the divine come out.
22:50Danielle Devine.
22:50Danielle Devine.
22:51I'm a little nervous, but she might just pull it out.
22:54My concern for you is, are we embracing Veronica?
22:58Because you know, this is a strong woman.
23:00I'm trying to stay strong.
23:02And that's why I came to drag you.
23:04So you guys can make me stronger.
23:06My past relationship is haunting me.
23:08This man has really set me back far.
23:12Too far.
23:13So it's like right now, I don't know what to do.
23:16I really don't.
23:17Let him go, girl.
23:19He ain't worth it.
23:19Hey, MJ.
23:20Hi.
23:21I'm going to check on you, see how you're doing up in here.
23:23Oh, same-o, same-o.
23:25Same-o, your energy seems kind of low.
23:27I have a lot of things on my mind.
23:28What's on your mind?
23:29I was in a relationship, and one night I had a lot of cash in the house.
23:34I woke up the next morning, everything was gone.
23:36When did the robbery happen?
23:38Almost a year now.
23:39Oh, wait a minute.
23:39Almost a year?
23:40Yes.
23:40We have got to get past this, you know that.
23:42Yes.
23:42You're not a victim.
23:43You have a great energy about you.
23:46You're beautiful.
23:48And that's what you have to focus on, but for some reason, you keep focusing on you as
23:51a victim.
23:52Why?
23:53Because I don't feel beautiful, and for men to tell me, oh, you're a little girl.
23:58So this is why I feel ugly.
24:00Well, that's .
24:01No one can make you feel inferior unless you give them your consent.
24:06Eleanor Roosevelt.
24:08Let me hear you say that back to me.
24:09No one can make me feel inferior unless I give them my consent.
24:15That's right.
24:16And you'll find yourself slipping into the victim, but you'd have Veronica Van Thunder
24:22say, thank you, but we're going this way.
24:24Take the wheel and turn it back this way.
24:26Okay.
24:26Now, is Veronica Van Thunder going to drag you with top honors?
24:30Baby, I'm going to drag you with top honors.
24:32I'm feeling it already.
24:33You just gave me the wisdom, the knowledge, and the strength to just let it go.
24:38Thank you so much.
24:40All right, kiddo.
24:41I am not going to be a victim anymore.
24:43Hallelujah.
24:46The runway is your time to shine.
24:48Oh, you know what I thought of?
24:49I want to go like shimmy.
24:52Shimmy like that.
24:53Christy has all this crazy energy this morning.
24:55I don't know where that came from, but I'll take two.
24:58I feel like it's time for my girls to come out and play.
25:00Love your hair.
25:02Oh, this little thing.
25:04Latrice and Raven switched wigs today.
25:05I don't know why, because it didn't work the first time.
25:07Pandora, you see nobody wanted to wear your hair.
25:10It looks large, girls.
25:11Well, this wig does look a lot larger on such a petite frame, doesn't it?
25:15It kind of balances out those shoulders.
25:17Ah!
25:20Raven darling, no matter how hard you look into that mirror, you'll never see my reflection.
25:27You excited?
25:27I am scared and excited.
25:30Is it like before you're about to walk down the aisle for a wedding?
25:34Well, my previous weddings, this is actually a lot more exciting.
25:37Did you elope the times before?
25:39No, they were thrown together.
25:41You feel judged because of that, don't you?
25:43Oh, it's...
25:44Most of the time I hide the fact I've been married so many times,
25:47because some people who wouldn't let their kids play with my kids because of it.
25:50I think sometimes the reason why they have ended up so well adjusted
25:55is because all of this hell that I've been through,
25:58I tried to absorb as much of it as I could so they wouldn't have to feel anything.
26:02So you've absorbed all of this.
26:04Have you released it now?
26:06I've always worried about what people thought of me.
26:07You've had these relationships, but you haven't had a real relationship with yourself.
26:12If I give all of me away, then there's none left for me.
26:14Well, there's a new member of the family.
26:16Her name is Danielle Devine.
26:18Danielle Devine is the superhero of the bride.
26:22I think everyone's going to love her.
26:23I love her already.
26:24I just, you know, I knew I was going to make a change here,
26:26but I didn't know it was going to be so profound.
26:29It's time to grow into Danielle Devine.
26:31All right, so get back out there, drag your weight, and turn it out.
26:35Rue is making me feel powerful and beautiful from the inside.
26:41This butterfly is throwing her caterpillar cocoon away.
26:44I hope that Christy finds her sexiness in Drag U.
26:49I feel diva-licious, and I'm ready to keep going forward.
26:53By attending Drag U, I hope that it builds up MJ's confidence.
26:58When I began to transform into Danielle Devine,
27:01I cannot wait to look in the mirror, to see it, and just be it.
27:04I want Nicole to put on that sexy dress and actually feel sexy.
27:07I want my mom to feel pretty on the inside, just like she is on the outside.
27:15Faculty, friends, and family.
27:17It's time to Drag U-8, bitches!
27:19Drag U, are you ready for me?
27:24It's a miracle, Drag U!
27:29Faculty, friends, and family.
27:31Please welcome your Drag U professors,
27:33Pandora Box, Latrice Royale, and Raven.
27:37And the president of Drag U, RuPaul.
27:42Welcome to RuPaul's Drag U.
27:44Here to evaluate my girls are the faculty.
27:47Our dean of drag, the Lady Bunny.
27:49Our dean of dance, Jamal Sims.
27:53And our visiting professor is an actress you know.
27:56Please welcome Miss Jolie Fisher.
27:59This week, our class of lost girls are all growed up and ready to turn it out.
28:05Now it's time to celebrate.
28:07Let the draguation commence.
28:10Little Christy never felt sensual.
28:13She had closed that door shut.
28:15But now she's letting loose, and she's one sexy mother.
28:18What?
28:20Ladies and gentlemen, Dita Devastation.
28:35I'm tired of dressing like a teenager.
28:38Thanks to Drag U, I finally feel like a grown-up woman.
28:41And Sam, I look like a sex bomb.
28:44So y'all better be ready for total devastation, bitches!
28:48Christy is owning that runway.
28:51And she is leaving everybody in the dust.
28:54MJ is a grown woman who felt smaller than a Barbie.
28:57Now she's large and in charge and ready to turn my party.
29:01Ladies and gentlemen, Veronica Van Thunder!
29:16I used to shop in the children's section.
29:18But now, thanks to Drag U, I'm feeling wonderful and gorgeous.
29:23So now tonight, honey, Veronica Van Thunder is gonna make it rain.
29:29Veronica is all sass and all ass baby.
29:32Nicole dressed like a kid, so people treated her like a child.
29:36But now, she's a grown-ass goddess, and she's ready to go wild.
29:40Ladies and gentlemen, Danielle Devine.
29:52After three failed marriages, I got stuck playing small.
29:55Drag U, help me leave my past behind.
29:58And thanks to RuPaul, I'm ready to live life large.
30:02Today, I'm a heavenly creature.
30:04And this diva is divine.
30:08Show your fiancé you know how to work that body.
30:15All right, Drag U, it's now begins your oral examination.
30:19Let's start with Dita Devastation.
30:23What's your favorite part of the outfit?
30:24I love the hair, I love the makeup, the dress.
30:27I get to keep this, right?
30:28Oh, hell yes.
30:29Okay, okay, good.
30:30What was the most challenging part of your transformation?
30:33Getting rid of everything from the past.
30:35Judgments and just forgetting all that.
30:38Being who I am.
30:39Being proud to be who I am.
30:41And not letting anybody else tell me otherwise.
30:44Who's here to cheer you on?
30:45I have my boyfriend Toshi here.
30:47Is there anything you'd like to say, Toshi?
30:49She's gorgeous.
30:50Gorgeous, yes.
30:51I know she was gorgeous, but way better.
30:54Now, in the Drag Lab, I gave you a choice between two everyday drag looks.
31:00And here's the look you selected.
31:02Oh, nice.
31:04Lady Bunny, what do we think of Dita Devastation's drag transformation and attitude adjustment?
31:11Well, you know, wearing a lot of makeup can make you look older.
31:14I'm only 15.
31:16And you have such a young, fresh face that you can wear a lot of makeup and still look youthful.
31:22It's fantastic.
31:23I can't believe this girl is this girl in front of me.
31:26I still want you to lighten up just a little bit on those steps because they're a little hard.
31:30But you're doing much, much better than day one.
31:33Up next, Veronica Van Thunder.
31:37Now, you didn't have all those curves when you got here.
31:40No, baby.
31:40Do you feel like a little girl right now?
31:42I'm Veronica Van Thunder, honey.
31:45You can call me little girl if you want to, but you better check yourself.
31:48Look at this.
31:51Now, in the Drag Lab, I gave you a choice of two everyday drag looks.
31:55And here's the look you selected.
31:57Woo-hoo!
31:58Woo-hoo!
31:59So, Falcon 2, what do you think of Veronica Van Thunder?
32:03You went from the playground to the penthouse.
32:05I mean, you smashed that look.
32:08I want to hear a little bit more of your voice when you speak, because I can see that you
32:11have now the confidence in your body.
32:13So, let's hear it.
32:15All right.
32:15And last, but certainly not least, Danielle Devine.
32:18Now, earlier you said you hadn't felt beautiful in a while.
32:22You feel beautiful now?
32:23Well, I'd like to say I'm heavenly, but right now I feel a little bit more like hell on heels.
32:27Oh, okay.
32:28Now, I gave you a choice of two everyday drag looks.
32:31And here's the look you selected.
32:33Woo-hoo!
32:34So, Falcon 2, what do you think of Danielle Devine?
32:37I would say a little bit lighter on the walk.
32:40I think that you have a sensuality about you that you don't need to force.
32:43It's there.
32:44You are gorgeous.
32:46I can see you in a music video now.
32:48I just hope you don't fall into that trap that I have with men where they're like,
32:52Bitch, keep the wig and makeup on.
32:55Ladies, it's time for your final dragxamination.
32:59Whoever kills it in the group performance could finish at the top of her class.
33:03So, don't flunk it up.
33:06Drag U, are you ready for me?
33:11It's a miracle.
33:13Drag U.
33:17Falcatee family, friends.
33:19Tonight, our top draguit will receive a prize package that includes a $1,000 gift certificate
33:26for overstock.com to kickstart her new wardrobe.
33:30Now, as president of Drag U, it is my honor to present the draguating class of Dita Devastation,
33:37Veronica Van Thunder, and Danielle Devine.
33:40Ladies, let them have it!
33:44It's the worst when there's nothing but a slow-glowing dream
33:52That your fear seems to hide deep inside your mind
34:02All alone I have cried
34:06Silent tears full of pride
34:11In a world made of steel, made of stone
34:23When I keep the music
34:27In my eyes feel the rhythm
34:31Wrap the ground, take the hold of my heart
34:37What a feeling
34:41Is believing
34:44I can have it all
34:47I will dance it all
34:50My life
34:52What a feeling
34:54I can have my heart
34:56Is believing
34:57Is believing
35:07Thank you, ladies.
35:09Please wait backstage while the faculty decides
35:12which one of you will drag you away with top honors.
35:16So, Falkity, based on her DPA,
35:19what did you think of Dita?
35:22Devastation.
35:23She definitely got rid of her overly youthful face
35:27and turned into a sexy veil.
35:28You know, I'm not sure if she was given all of those moves
35:31or whether she added those afterwards,
35:33but she had a great time out there.
35:34Her signature move was supposed to be a celebratory one
35:37and it looked like, oh my gosh, I'm about to fall.
35:40All right, based on her DPA,
35:42what did you think of Veronica Van Thun-da?
35:45You know, I definitely admired her for her confidence
35:48and I'm glad she had the courage to wear eye makeup.
35:50She looked sensational.
35:52She nailed it.
35:53When she started singing,
35:54I was almost second-guessing if she was really singing it
35:56because she really got into it.
35:57I did notice if all else fails
35:59and you don't remember a word,
36:00put your hand in there.
36:01All right, based on her DPA,
36:04what did you think of Danielle Devine?
36:07This was a remarkable transformation,
36:09very glamorous.
36:10She does have that movie star look.
36:12She has this sensuality
36:14and this beautiful look about her.
36:16I kept seeing her thinking too much
36:18and I wanted her to lose that
36:19and just get into the performance.
36:21Falcatee, it's time for your decision.
36:23I leave it in your capable hands.
36:25Draguets, please report to the main stage.
36:28All Draguets, please report to the main stage.
36:36The Falcatee has compiled your final grades
36:38and we have a winner.
36:41May have the envelope, please.
36:45The top Draguet of RuPaul's Drag U is...
36:53Veronica Vanthunder!
36:58Condragulations!
36:59I no longer feel like a little kid right now.
37:02I'm feeling like a diva, honey.
37:06This woman's so proud.
37:08Raven, how's that crow taste?
37:11If she stays like this,
37:13I will hang with you every night.
