04:33Welcome to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race.
04:37Yes, the tribe has gathered.
04:40I know we're in the middle of a presidential election,
04:44but tonight, this is the race everybody's talking about.
04:51Because together, right here on Logo TV,
04:54we can make America gay again.
05:00And I got to tell you, in this theater,
05:04you have my permission to use any damn bathroom you want.
05:11Well, except mine, of course.
05:14You hear that, Jiggly?
05:16Tonight, our legendary judges are here,
05:20fresh from the drop-off at Calabasas Junior High School.
05:23It's Michelle Bazan.
05:28Also here are Ross Matthews and Carson Kressley.
05:35Now, this season, we've been to Oz and back,
05:38but the competition ain't over.
05:40Bob the Drag Queen, Kim Chi, and Naomi Smalls.
05:46Tonight, one of you will be crowned America's next drag superstar.
05:51But I have not made my final decision.
05:55And because we're still keeping it 100,
05:57I've asked each of you to prepare a lip-sync performance
06:00to a song created just for you.
06:05Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me
06:08and to show the world that you deserve to be America's next drag superstar.
06:12So, good luck, and don't fuck it up.
06:24Coming up, sickening live performances by our top three.
06:27Later, the season eight queens reunite and let it all hang out
06:31when the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race continues.
06:38It's RuPaul's Drag Race, The Rusical.

07:02And there's not a dog in the butt!
07:05To the bench ball!
07:07Because I'm the biggest star
07:10And I'm going far
07:12RuPaul's Drag Race, The Rusical.
07:14Available where fine music is sold.
07:17The person's evil!
07:26Welcome back to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race.
07:30Now, our top three queens have snatched your attention all season long.
07:34And tonight, I've challenged each of them to slay the stage one last time.
07:39First first, a New York City girl who puts the taint in entertainment.
07:44Give it up for a demure little lady we call Bob the Drag Queen.
07:58Uh, over here.
08:00Tried to tone it down, talk it in real tight, but it's not that easy.
08:05It's not that easy.
08:06Since I was a child, people keep saying I've been doing too much.
08:11Doing too much.
08:12Mama always said, hold your head up high.
08:15You got the magic touch.
08:17Magic touch.
08:18So whether it's acting, comedy, body, singing, dancing, or serving chocolate chip cookies.
08:25I don't like to show off.
08:26Don't show off.
08:28I don't like to show off.
08:30Don't show off.
08:31I keep the total, keep it humble, cause it's not my greed.
08:35I like to keep my talents up under my wig.
08:38Woo!
08:39Ooh!
08:40I don't like to show off.
08:42Don't show off.
08:44All the other bitches call me Ratchet.
08:46Your wig too big, I snatch it.
08:47Your head didn't hand me the Oscar.
08:49I'm the only one on the roster.
08:50If you come for B.O.V.
08:51You must be an S.O.V.
08:53Everybody was a hater, but I'm making my shit out of everybody right in front of y'all.
08:56Ha!
08:57Ha!
08:58Ha!
08:58I don't like to show off.
09:01I don't like to show off.
09:04I keep the total, keep it humble, cause it's not my greed.
09:08I like to keep my talents up under my wig.
09:11Woo!
09:13I don't like to show off.
09:18Uuuh!
09:28Oh!
09:35Wow!
09:38Working out for Team Humble!
09:43Now, while you catch your breath, let's talk to the judges.
09:47Michelle Visage, what'd you think?
09:49That was amazing!
09:52Come on, choreography!
09:55Phenomenal!
09:55I'm so proud of you, and I love that you play safe.
09:57Every one of your dancers is wearing a hard hat.
09:59I love that.
10:01Important.
10:02I think you need to change your name to Bob the Superstar.
10:05Ooh!
10:08Well, thank you, judges.
10:09Now, Bob the Drag Queen, from the moment you entered the workroom, you had uniqueness,
10:14nerve, and talent written all over you.
10:16Let's take a look.
10:18My name is Bob the Drag Queen.
10:19I'm hilarious, beautiful, talented, and humble.
10:23That's the biggest pearl necklace I've ever seen.
10:26How you doing, RuPaul?
10:28I'm sorry that I'm late, but Uzo Abubu left the stage.
10:34Well, then, why did I waste my time putting on this?
10:38Heyyyy!
10:39There's more.
10:41Heyyyy!
10:42Sometimes you borderline on showboating.
10:44Insert shady rattlesnake noise here.
10:46Rrrr, guh guh guh guh guh guh guh guh guh guh guh guh.
10:49Bob, how's your head?
10:50No complaints.
10:51I'm Bob the Drag Queen.
10:53A queen for the people.
10:59Now, Bob, when did you first become aware of drag?
11:02I used to watch Two Wong Fu
11:03I saw this glamazonian goddess
11:09coming down from the ceiling
11:10wearing a big confederate flag
11:14I was like, ooh
11:15When I say bitch, I mean it like
11:18the way you'd call your grandmother a bitch
11:21I was like
11:25You excelled at so many of the challenges
11:28Did you study the show before you came on?
11:30No, I'm just really talented
11:37Listen, this is my favorite show
11:39This is what I thought I was supposed to be doing my whole life
11:41When I was performing in like bars in New York City
11:44Dodging beer bottles, literally
11:46I was like, this doesn't feel right
11:47There's something bigger coming
11:48Lo and behold, I found something bigger
11:49Her name is RuPaul and she blessed me
11:54Now, Bob, at one point in the season
11:57The other queens were rooting for you to fail
12:00What did that feel like?
12:01It felt like I was doing it right
12:05I mean, no one's rooting for the person doing the worst
12:08No one's like, oh, you're doing bad
12:09You should get out there like, ooh, she's doing so well
12:11Get the fuck out of here
12:15All right, so we've got some fan questions over there
12:21Hallelujah, I'm back RuPaul!
12:28Tucker from Florida wants to know
12:31Does your humor come from overcoming a dark place in your life?
12:37See, I mean, I have the struggles that a lot of y'all homosexuals here had
12:40What? Wait, wait, what was there?
12:45These are
12:47A few
12:49I have the same hardships that everyone else here has
12:51And we all deal with it in different ways
12:53If you find something to filter your pain and your anger into
12:56It'll flourish
12:57It really will
12:58Thank you, Santilla
13:01Now, Bob, you blew everyone away with your Snatch Game impersonations
13:05Now, did you ever hear from Uzo or Carol Channing?
13:09Well, Uzo tweeted at me and was like, this was amazing
13:12And I was like, thank you
13:14And I am obsessed with Carol Channing
13:16But she's just, she's 95, it's hard to get out of the house
13:17When you're 95
13:18I'm 18 and it's hard for me to get out
13:20Yeah, I know, I know
13:21Well, we did hear from the one and only Carol Channing
13:24Take a look
13:24Thank you, Bob, for your colorful impersonation of me
13:31I'm so honored to be a part of your history
13:36Oh, I'm proud of that
13:38Oh my God, yes
13:48So, Bob, I know your brother's over there, right?
13:51Yeah, he's the one who's just a shade darker than me
13:53I'm 11 o'clock, he's midnight
13:58Justin, what was it like growing up with Bob?
14:01Bob used to cry on my birthday because it wasn't about him
14:04That's true
14:08Now, Bob, I know that your mother couldn't be here because of her health
14:11Yes
14:11Darn it
14:12You know, it would have been a great opportunity for us to have a tape message or something
14:15But if we didn't, we don't have
14:16Wait a minute
14:18Oh, actually, we do have a tape message
14:21Let's roll that
14:23Bob, this is your mother
14:24I'm very proud of you
14:26I've always believed in you even when you didn't believe in yourself
14:30Continue to work hard on your craft
14:33Always respect your fans
14:35Reach for the stars
14:36Chris, do the best you can
14:37Like I always tell you and your brother, keep the first thing the first thing
14:40And I love you
14:48Now, Bob, what would it mean to you to win $100,000?
14:52$100,000 isn't the thing
14:54Because money comes and goes
14:55But winning this title, that means something
14:57You get to go forth and carry a legacy
14:58And do something and make a change in somebody's life
15:00And put first things first and do something
15:03Right, right, right
15:05Now, I've watched all 109 episodes of RuPaul's Drag Race
15:10And I've noticed you have never once walked into the room
15:14Purse first
15:15Oh, my God
15:16Look at this
15:17Oh, and it matches my outfit
15:20It's perfect
15:22I love it
15:23Purse first
15:25Yeah
15:26I love it
15:29Give it up for Bob the Drag Queen
15:33Are you Team Bob?
15:35Tweet us now with hashtag Drag Race
15:37Next, we're gonna kimchi that walk
15:39And go big with Naomi Smalls
15:41As the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race continues
15:52Welcome back to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race
15:56Up next, we've got an Instagram superstar
15:59Who's about to list-sync for her life
16:03Now serving Kim Chi
16:14I came here to debut
16:16A brand new dance for you
16:18Really easy to do
16:20It's a new sensation
16:21Only three things you need
16:23To do it just like me
16:25Count it like one, two, three
16:27Every generation
16:28Beyonce
16:30Madonna
16:32Got nothing
16:34On this triple threat
16:35Let's do the
16:37Top population
16:37Top population
16:39Top population
16:41Yeah
16:43Top population
16:45Top population
16:47Top population
17:11Top population
17:17Up
17:18uh-huh
17:31uh-huh
17:46Wow, Kim Chi, I love that song.
17:50It's got a good beat and you can't dance to it.
17:56All right, Kim Chi, let's hear from the judges.
17:58Michelle Visage, what's the tea on Kim Chi?
18:01I love that your purity and your beautiful energy
18:04took something that was normally considered negative
18:06and turned it into something fun and beautiful.
18:09Yes.
18:12Nailed it.
18:17Today, Kim Chi is on the menu
18:19and you are the main course.
18:21Who's hungry?
18:26Now, Kim Chi, you came to this competition hungry.
18:29You won the first challenge
18:31and then you stayed hungry.
18:33Let's take a look.
18:35My name is Kim Chi.
18:36I came to the top of the competition.
18:38I'm known for a crazy, over-the-top, pure anime fantasy.
18:41And amazing.
18:43I may come across shy because I'm soft-spoken,
18:46but don't come for me because I'll destroy you.
18:49I do get concerned about your wall.
18:51It's very stiff, darling.
18:53Excuse me!
18:55My mom doesn't know that I do drag.
18:58What?
18:58Kim Chi, you didn't just get better.
19:00You got fierce.
19:02I don't want to be America's Next Drag Superstar.
19:04I am America's Next Drag Superstar.
19:10Now, Kim Chi, you were so honest and vulnerable this season.
19:15In fact, watching the show back,
19:17at one point, you made me ugly cry, girl.
19:20So I hope you don't mind if I ask you some very personal questions.
19:24First one, when was the last time you fell down?
19:31Actually, earlier today.
19:33I'm not even joking.
19:35I tripped on my skirt and I fell over the craft service table.
19:41Now, everyone is gagging on your looks.
19:44Just so many.
19:45Amazing.
19:47What inspires you?
19:49My inspiration comes from a lot of random places.
19:51I could be walking down the street and see a rock and be like,
19:53oh, that rock is pretty.
19:54Let me make a gown inspired by the rock.
19:57So there's no one set inspiration,
19:59but everyday life and nature.
20:01Now, is it true you gave the $3,000 you won in the first challenge to your mother?
20:05Why did you do that?
20:06My mom works really hard to, you know, pay the bills,
20:09and she works as a server at a Korean restaurant currently,
20:12and I want to do everything that I can to help my mom financially.
20:15Yeah.
20:20Have you told her that you do drag yet?
20:22I still have not, but, you know.
20:25She didn't watch the show?
20:27I mean, she's very Korean-American,
20:28and she's really not open to American culture at all.
20:32So I don't think she'll ever find out about drag race.
20:36Well, listen.
20:36Listen, I am a firm believer in things happen when they're supposed to happen.
20:42So right after this, why don't we drive over to your mother's house,
20:45and I tell her myself.
20:50Road trip?
20:52Road trip.
20:52Road trip.
20:53Yes.
20:54Who's here supporting you tonight?
20:56I have my friend Ryan, Diana, Amy, and Trixie.
21:02So, Dana, what do you think of Kim Chi's journey?
21:05I think Kim Chi is the most creative, talented, and hardworking person I know.
21:09I'm so happy to be with her.
21:14All right, now we've got some fan questions for you, Kim Chi.
21:18Oh, look, we have the pit crew coming down,
21:20and you forgot your pants, guys.
21:24Kim Chi, Tiara from Facebook asks,
21:26if you could lose your virginity to a member of the pit crew,
21:32who would it be?
21:38Um, I'm not trying to catch anything,
21:40so I'm going to say none of them.
21:41Bye.
21:52Shame.
21:54Shame.
21:58Oh, thank you, pit crew members.
22:01I don't know what to say after that.
22:06All right, Kim Chi, well, we have one more question.
22:09Well, actually, it's more of a statement.
22:11Take a look.
22:12Kim Chi, I am supreme leader,
22:17but you are supreme drag queen.
22:22You better work,
22:24or else I put you in a labor camp.
22:27Kim Chi, it's Margaret Cho.
22:29I'm so proud of you.
22:30You're so beautiful.
22:31You are so funny.
22:32And I think you are a good dancer.
22:40So, Kim Chi, what would it mean to you
22:42to become America's next drag superstar?
22:45It would obviously change my life.
22:47I'd be able to not be broke.
22:48I'd be able to afford guacamole in my burrito bowl.
22:53I'd be able to start my own makeup company,
22:55which I would love to do,
22:56and it would mean that
22:58anybody who's ever felt like
22:59they weren't part of anything,
23:01anybody that felt like they couldn't be anything,
23:03as long as you stay true to who you are,
23:05be creative, be original,
23:06and your dreams will eventually come true.
23:09Well, Kim Chi, read my list.
23:13We love you.
23:15Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Kim Chi.
23:20Are you team Kim Chi?
23:22Then tweet all about it.
23:24Hashtag drag race.

26:30Oh, all of that right there.
26:32I'm giving you Naomi Campbell strutting down a Versace runway.
26:36I just thought it was perfection.
26:37This is how you win this competition.
26:39I have eight brothers and three sisters.
26:42Whoa.
26:43That is crazy.
26:44This is my mom.
26:45She's like the best mom ever.
26:46Do you have a message you want to say to your mother?
26:48Thank you for everything you've ever done.
26:50And I hope I can repay you for the rest of my life.
26:54I'm Naomi Smalls, and I promise to represent you fiercely.
27:04Naomi, you have the fever and the flavor for fashion.
27:08Now, where does that come from?
27:09I honestly don't know because I grew up in like a family that was, sorry guys, not the
27:15most fashion forward or anything like that.
27:17But, um, I just remember like looking at magazines when I was a kid and just being so obsessed
27:22with them and I wanted to look like these amazing supermodels that were in the glossy pages.
27:26Sure, yeah.
27:27Now, halfway through the competition, you seemed to come to life.
27:31What happened?
27:32I was so scared in the beginning of standing out and like for the wrong reasons, but when
27:37it comes to Snatch Game, you can't hide anywhere.
27:40And, um, being in the bottom two and having to lip sync for my life just put that fire
27:44underneath my ass to take chances and stand out for all the right reasons.
27:46Yeah.
27:47You did really well.
27:48Yeah.
27:49Now, Naomi, we have a take message from one fierce queen.
27:54Let's take a look.
27:55Hi, Naomi.
27:58Now, in Westeros there's only room for one queen.
28:02Uh, but in Rue's queendom, girl, I can't wait to see you take that crown.
28:09Now, Cersei, that walk.
28:19I love that.
28:21So good.
28:22Now, we have some fan questions.
28:25Ch-ch-ch-chia.
28:27Herminio from Mexico.
28:29Hi, Herminio.
28:42And then she had like this interview saying, I really am loving that Naomi Smalls.
28:46I love that.
28:49Tell me this.
28:50What would it mean to you to become America's next drag superstar?
28:54It would mean the world to me to be America's next drag superstar.
28:57Just to get that stamp of approval from you and carry on your legacy would be the biggest
29:03goal ever met in my life.
29:05I love it.
29:05Now, before we go, I want to say hello to your mother.
29:08Where is she?
29:09She's right there.
29:12Oh, there she is.
29:14Hi.
29:15So, June, what was it like raising a leggy supermodel?
29:20Well, I'm a little shocked that he didn't get fashion tips from me.
29:24I had no idea.
29:25He has always been amazing.
29:27Really?
29:28Yes.
29:28Did you buy the fashion magazines or did...
29:31No, but I did start buying the wigs and the shoes and the...
29:42Now, besides Naomi, how many kids did you raise?
29:46Twelve altogether.
29:47Wow.
29:51Wow.
29:54Naomi, where are your other brothers and sisters tonight?
29:57Well, they're all over the world.
29:58They're actually all over this theater, too.
30:00Well, let's bring them out.
30:00The Von Trapp family singers.
30:03Come on out.
30:05Where are they?
30:10How are you?
30:12How are you?
30:13How are you?
30:14How are you?
30:14How are you?
30:15How are you?
30:18You know, like I always say, the family that drags together slays together.
30:24Let's hear it for the legendary, all legs, no dairy, Naomi Smalls.
30:32Are you team Naomi?
30:34Then let the world know.
30:36Tweet it with hashtag Drag Race.
30:38Coming up, the queens reunite.
30:40We announce Miss Congeniality and more when the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race continues.
30:52Welcome back to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race.
30:56Now, we're just moments away from crowning America's next drag superstar.
30:59But first, it's time to bring back my gals.
31:06Starting with a nerdy bird, a glam rock rebel, and one cuckoo queen.
31:15My name is Dax!
31:16What's up, nerds?
31:18My look is very inspired by, like, science fiction and comics.
31:20Strong bad bitches who don't take any crap from anybody else.
31:22Show me your exclamation point.
31:24Yay!
31:27All right, ladies, let's turn up the juice and see what shakes loose.
31:30Layla is, like, a hoary, quasi, I don't wanna say gothy, but, like, gothy.
31:37My biggest concern is that I'm gonna fade into the background.
31:40I'm here, too.
31:41Dax!
31:43Layla McQueen, neither one of you survived that lip sync.
31:47Fashé away.
31:48Both of us?
31:51Really?
31:52How you doing, Miss Amores?
31:54My name is Cynthia Lee from Teen.
31:55Do you wanna see my cuckoo?
31:57Cuckoo?
31:57Cuckoo.
31:58Cuckoo.
31:58I need a space for this junk in the trunk.
32:00I'm sexy as a goddesses, I'm funny as a clan.
32:03I am Sydney!
32:06Did my teats lube jello?
32:09No.
32:13Dax!
32:14And Layla McQueen, welcome back.
32:16Hello.
32:18So, Dax, I hear that the song, I Will Survive, is haunting you everywhere you go.
32:23Is that true?
32:23Yes, like, literally everywhere I go, like, it could be a gas station, grocery store, anywhere.
32:28It just happens to come on.
32:29Listen, if I were you two, I would seize the moment.
32:31I would record another song.
32:33I would call it, um, I Didn't Survive.
32:36You know?
32:37It'd be a huge hit!
32:38But seriously, there are no losers on Drag Race.
32:41Dax, what's life been like since you were on the show?
32:44Honestly, life has been absolutely amazing.
32:46Like, the fans have been phenomenal.
32:47I mean, obviously, like, I don't have as many fans as like, you know, Kim Chi or Bob or Naomi.
32:50That's fine.
32:51It's fine.
32:52But the ones I do have are phenomenal.
32:55Now, I've got a confession to make.
32:57Layla McQueen and I have a secret past.
33:00I deny it, but there's proof.
33:02Take a look.
33:05That little pixie to the right of me is Layla McQueen when I was not running for president in Manchester,
33:11New Hampshire.
33:12You know, my grandmother calls you Ron Paul.
33:16Now, did you ever imagine at that point that you would be on this stage?
33:20Oh, absolutely not.
33:22I mean, I was performing in, like, function halls in Mexican restaurants.
33:25I could never imagine being here or anywhere else around the world.
33:29So now, what's happened to you because of Drag Race?
33:32Um, I get to go everywhere and meet the people that love the work I do and embrace so much
33:38love that I never thought I would see.
33:40All that at the truck stop?
33:45So, Dax, Layla, you aren't just surviving.
33:49You are thriving.
33:57Next up, straight from Santee Alley, Cynthia Lee Fontaine.
34:03Now, since the show, you've been through it, haven't you, girl?
34:07Yes.
34:08Um, actually, um, the episode that I've been eliminated, I was experiencing symptoms.
34:12I'm a liver cancer survivor at stage one.
34:14I'm here to celebrate that.
34:16Wow.
34:17Yes.
34:18And how do you feel right now?
34:20I'm in the discharge process already right now.
34:22Yeah.
34:23So, I feel amazing.
34:24I feel fantastic.
34:26Good.
34:26Yeah.
34:28Did any of your drag sisters reach out to you?
34:31Yes.
34:32One special person, and it's Acid Betty.
34:35That Acid Betty?
34:35That Acid Betty.
34:37Yeah.
34:38Acid Betty.
34:39She came to visit me.
34:40As soon as she knew that I was diagnosed, she was taking care of me.
34:44She was like, bitch, you're not alone.
34:48I got your back.
34:52I think the positive attitude from all my entire new sisterhood helped me to recovery
34:58and helped me to be more positive every day.
35:00Wow.
35:02I love it.
35:03Well, Cynthia Lee Fontaine, we are cuckoo for your cuckoo.
35:14Now a queen who always picks up when I call and a badass in total control of herself.
35:20Let's take a look.
35:21The beauty is here.
35:23My name is Neisha Lopez.
35:25I spend money.
35:26I don't do drag on a dime.
35:28Neisha Lopez, bache away.
35:32How soon can you get here?
35:34Bitches are good!
35:37Faith.
35:38Body.
35:39Glamour.
35:39Your ass is real.
35:40Yes.
35:41Realness, boo.
35:44This acid trip is all real.
35:47My drag style is completely over the top.
35:49Punk unicorn realness.
35:51The main bullet point of Acid Betty is she's a bitch.
35:53I'm not going to be unprepared because of you, boo.
35:54Acid Betty, you've taken us on one wild trip.
36:05Now Neisha Lopez, Michelle and I have a running bet, okay?
36:10That ass of yours.
36:12Is it real?
36:14So listen, Ru, I eat well, I work out, I have 10 cc's of medical grade silicone.
36:23I know.
36:27So on the show, you said your ass is real.
36:29My ass is real.
36:30However, have I had some enhancements to the body, yaddy, yaddy?
36:34Yeah.
36:35Yes, I have.
36:36Ah.
36:40Now you missed the Madonna runway storyline.
36:42Yes.
36:42What would you have worn?
36:43I'm a very creative person and what I had going on was another kimono.
36:50What?
36:51What is it with these queens and kimonos?
36:55Neisha, thanks for gracing us with your gorgeous beauty and that booty twice.
37:00Yes.
37:01Next, Acid Betty.
37:03Now, are you really here or am I having a flashback?
37:07Now you turned out some killer looks this season.
37:13How have fans been to you?
37:15I love the fans.
37:16They are the best.
37:18The best.
37:19The best thing of this show are the fans.
37:21The love is so intense and it's wonderful.
37:24I actually had a kid that I met at DragCon and they decided that they were going to go
37:27into fashion and got a full scholarship to FIDM because of seeing me on the TV show.
37:31Wow.
37:32Wow.
37:33It's really great.
37:35Now, Acid Betty, you took a lot of heat for your Nancy Grace impersonation.
37:39But some people really, really liked it.
37:43Take a look.
37:44Acid Betty, I loved watching you be me, but frankly, speaking professionally, you got a
37:51raw deal.
37:52You were robbed.
37:53No tea, no shade, but unleash the lawyers.
37:57We got a case here.
37:59That's fair.
38:01I love it.
38:02Asi, I could go on talking to you all night, but I refuse to say anything further until
38:06I lawyer up.
38:08Ladies and gentlemen, Acid Betty.
38:13Coming up, get into the groove when Robbie, Thorgy, Derek, and Chi Chi return.
38:18And find out who snatches Miss Congeniality.
38:21Plus, are you Team Bob, Team Kim Chi, or Team Naomi?
38:25I can't hear you.
38:27Tweet us with hashtag Drag Race as the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race continues.
38:40The best way to describe our next three queens is Brassie, Brooklyn, and Britney bitch.
38:52Good morning.
38:53My name is Robbie Turner, and I'm the kindest queen you'll ever meet.
38:56I just want you to be hot and saucy.
39:01Yes, Marilyn.
39:02She's in a league of her own.
39:03I would wear the hell out of that junk suit.
39:07Too real.
39:11Thorgie with a T-H and orgy, and I feel incredible.
39:14I'm colorful, I'm fun, and I'm a fashion clown.
39:19This is harder on me than it is for you guys.
39:22No, it's not!
39:24I can be campy, but also I can be, like, fucking fierce.
39:27I'm so proud of you. Great job.
39:32Hysteric, bitch.
39:33I may look angelic, but I am not that innocent.
39:36I also have a career with my wigs on.
39:38You'll have a career once you start gluing yours down.
39:40You have to give us more.
39:42That is not a Britney reference.
39:47That's how you go out in style, girls.
39:53Now, Robbie Turner, how does someone so young know so much about classic Hollywood?
39:58My mother and father wouldn't allow us to watch contemporary films.
40:01We watched classic Hollywood films all the time.
40:04So I thought they were contemporary.
40:07So you can imagine little baby Robbie when she's like, Judy Garland died many moons ago.
40:12And it's like, what?
40:16Now, what was your favorite moment on the show?
40:18On my birthday, I won the singing challenge with the lay chicken wings.
40:23And Debbie Harry came back and said happy birthday to me.
40:27I'm like, um, I don't see the problem with this birthday at all.
40:31Drag race, Debbie, chicken, wings.
40:36Robbie, thank you so much for all the classic sass.
40:40Oh, and by the way, I will be sending you a bill for that broken light bulb that you did.
40:45Uh-huh.
40:47Up next, hey there, Thorgy girl.
40:50Hey, Will!
40:51Yeah!
40:55Now, like Michelle and I, you and Bob have a very complicated relationship.
41:01Tell me about it.
41:02I love to argue and fight about everything.
41:05I love it.
41:05There's always a way to tear things apart and make them better.
41:08Bob can take it from me.
41:09He'll just listen to me talk and go, I still don't like you.
41:13But when people see me and Bob doing that, they're like, oh, you guys really don't like
41:16each other.
41:16I'm like, I just love fighting with him so much.
41:18But I'm just in love with Bob very much.
41:20Now, you have dreams of starting a Thorkestra, is that right?
41:24What is it?
41:25What's a Thorkestra?
41:26Well, ever since I was playing violin and then I got into, like, the art of drag, I wanted
41:29to conduct, like, a 40-piece orchestra.
41:31I wanted to travel the world.
41:32I want, like, Rufus Wainwright to wheel out on a piano and be like, oh, my friend Rufus
41:36is here to sing a song.
41:37That's a great idea.
41:39Will you play a little something for us right now?
41:45Oh, my God!
41:59Thank you, guys.
42:02Well, Thorky, I cannot wait to see what you're going to do next.
42:06Woo!
42:09Up next, the 100th queen to prance into my workroom.
42:14Hey, Derek!
42:15Woo!
42:18Now, you struggled to get out of the Britney box, as it was called.
42:22What's your relationship with Britney now?
42:24I will always do Britney.
42:26I'm not leaving it behind.
42:29Of course, I wanted to come on the show to expand what I already do and take it to the
42:33next level.
42:34And I feel like, not only can I do Britney now, I can do drag.
42:37I'm doing drag right now.
42:41Now, Derek, throughout the season, you were not afraid to speak your mind loudly, especially
42:48with Bob and Naomi.
42:50You have any regrets about that?
42:51Everything?
42:53Oh, gosh.
42:54It's hard because I watch it back.
42:56I'm like, oh, wow, I shouldn't have said that.
42:58Probably shouldn't have had that drink in Untucked.
43:00And, yes, I have a hard time taking criticism because I've never been criticized like that
43:06before.
43:07Doing Britney was what I've always done, and I was praised for that.
43:09And now, coming into this competition, it was almost looked down upon that that was something
43:14that I was known to do.
43:15And I learned so much from Naomi.
43:17And she taught me how to block my brows, and I think I'm doing it now.
43:23Thank you, Derek.
43:25And I will always think of you as my genie in a bottle.
43:30Yes, I know that's a Christina song, but I've run out of Britney references.
43:34Give me a break.
43:36Yes.
43:37We love you, Derek Berry.
43:59We love you, Derek Berry.
44:12Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Grand Finale.
44:15Now, we are moments away from finding out if Bob the Drag Queen, Kim Chi, or Naomi Smalls
44:20will be crowned America's next drag superstar.
44:23But first, the queen who has turned this season on its head.
44:27Let's take a look.
44:29Let's take a look.
44:31My name is Chi Chi Devang, and I don't get ready.
44:34I stay ready.
44:36My drag is that real southern, dragged-out style of drag.
44:41Prove to us that you're a champion.
44:43Not only have you guys taught me how to be a better entertainer, but you have taught me
44:48how to be a better person, and $100,000 cannot buy that.
44:58Yes, Louisiana Glamour.
45:00When you came to Drag Race, you had quit two jobs to be on the show.
45:05How many jobs do you have now?
45:06I have one job, Ru, and I'm a full-time drag queen!
45:13That's what's up.
45:14That's what's up.
45:15How do fans react when they meet you?
45:17Oh, my God.
45:18First time in New York.
45:19I'm in Times Square.
45:20And the shortest little Hispanic woman stopped me in the street, and she just instantly started
45:26crying.
45:27Wow.
45:27She explained it to me that I represented all of the people in the world to her that
45:33are out there struggling to make ends meet, and who have a dream, and the dream has come
45:39true.
45:43Dreams come true, y'all.
45:44Dreams come true.
45:45And speaking of dreams, the Dreamgirls lip sync that you did.
45:50Oh, honey.
45:52That was legendary, and I'm not the only one who thought so.
45:56Take a look at this.
45:57You, Miss Chi Chi Devane, are a true inspiration.
46:01I tell you that your heartfelt rendition of And I'm Telling You humbled me.
46:06And honey, when those beads start flying right after you and I hit on a high note, honey,
46:12you gave me life, and I'm going to make you an official dream, girl.
46:20Do you have anything else you'd like to say?
46:23Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
46:26You have changed my life forever.
46:30You made my dreams come true.
46:32That is the sweetest thing.
46:34I really appreciate that.
46:35I've been watching you for a long time, and to have you finally on the show is really my honor.
46:57you're having my dreams come true.
47:13Hey, listen.
47:17and I brought you some water.
47:18Are you thirsty?
47:20So, Katya, what have you been up to?
47:23Oh, my God.
47:23What haven't I been up to?
47:24Listen, I learned horseback riding.
47:26I've been doing macrame.
47:27I've visited, like, six out of the 12 continents in the world.
47:31It's been a whirlwind.
47:32Yeah, well, is there something you want to tell me?
47:34I mean...
47:34Well, okay, yeah.
47:35I'm not technically bisexual.
47:37I mean, I'm open.
47:38No, no, no, no, no.
47:39No, no, I am open.
47:40Listen, I am...
47:41I'm talking about what you came out here for.
47:43You remember?
47:44Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
47:44Oh, look at this thing.
47:45Okay.
47:46Oh, yeah.
47:46Will you hold this water for me?
47:48Yeah, sure.
47:56The winner of season eight, Miss Congeniality,
47:59and a cash prize of $5,000.
48:02Yep.
48:03Courtesy of the all-new Fiat 500X crossover.
48:07Is...
48:08Cynthia Lee Fontaine!
48:12Yay!
48:17Cynthia, is there anything you'd like to say?
48:21This is very important for me, because experiencing cancer gives me the opportunity just only to be stronger than ever
48:28and represent my community the best that I can.
48:30And the only way that we can do that is funny and showing the cuckoo to the world.
48:37Thank you, RuPaul, so very much.
48:39And thanks to all of you for voting.
48:44Are you team Bob, team Kim Chi, or team Naomi?
48:48Sound off now.
48:49Next, drag race legends are standing by to help Ru crown America's next drag superstar.
48:55When the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race pops off.
49:04Welcome back to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race.
49:08All rise for your top three.
49:10Bob the Drag Queen.
49:14Kim Chi.
49:18Naomi Smalls.
49:27There are only eight people on Earth that know what it feels like to be the winner of RuPaul's Drag
49:33Race.
49:34And they're all here tonight to share their words of wisdom.
49:38Welcome back, my champions.
49:41Phoebe Sahara-Banay.
49:44Cameroon welcomes you to the royal family, darling.
49:47Remember, always give them faith, faith, faith, and more faith.
49:52Tyra Sanchez.
49:54Be the biggest, baddest bitch of them all.
49:57A royal bitch.
49:59Love, America, sweetheart.
50:01Raja.
50:02In the prophetic words of a wise mystic, express yourself.
50:06It is now your duty to honor a divine legacy and to leave an indelible imprint in her story.
50:13Sharon Needle.
50:14My advice?
50:15Just be yourself.
50:16Well, unless nobody likes you.
50:19In that case, just be Alaska.
