00:00I do not like it when drag queens get to a point where they are so, they feel like they're
00:05so famous,
00:05they don't have to get in drag anymore. I don't like it, Bump.
00:09Welcome to Ms. Mojo. And today we're counting down our picks for the shadiest,
00:14messiest, and most chaotic moments from podcasts hosted by Drag Race alumni that had the fandom
00:18losing their minds. So he's agreed $2,500. This is the email where he's acknowledging that I paid
00:25him $2,500. Number 10. Don and Amanda's falling out. Kudos for spilling. In May 2026,
00:35a mandatory meeting appeared on Plain Jane's podcast. And when asked whether she would block,
00:39collab, or tour with Don, she went with the first option. I'm going to tour with Morphine.
00:47Okay. Collab with Safira and block Don. Period, bitch. Period. Bye, Don. Sorry. Not sorry.
00:54The following week, Don sat in the same seat and returned the energy,
00:58adding that it seemed like Amanda genuinely hated her and that they hadn't spoken in quite some time.
01:02To be fair, she didn't say she hated you. She hates me, mama. Well, I don't know. I haven't
01:07talked to her in like a year, but as far as I'm aware. Anyway, we're not getting into the tea
01:11on that.
01:12This revelation came as a shock to many fans. These two had been noticeably close during and after
01:17their time on the show. I'm standing across the stage from my like bestie girlfriend,
01:24but I'm still going to smoke her. Reddit users immediately went to work with some speculating
01:29that Amanda's breakup with a former partner who was reportedly close to Don had fractured the
01:33friendship. However, none of that has been confirmed by the Queens. Where it's like, you want to break
01:38a curse. You have to kill the thing that gave it to you. So my ex decided to not be
01:43vegetarian
01:43anymore. And I was like, Oh, maybe I'm not either. That's crazy. It gets crazier.
01:47Number nine, Willem's Drag Race UK season three claims race chaser with Alaska and Willem.
01:53No one launches fandom discourse quite like Willem. In 2021, the black sheep of the drag
01:59race family alleged on her podcast with Alaska that RuPaul's Drag Race UK season three had
02:04been filmed at a breakneck pace. We've got one hour. We've got to put a look together,
02:10change our faces, get new accessories, change our shoes, change our wigs. It's f***ing madness.
02:17Willem claimed they reportedly shot roughly one episode per day and that Queens weren't given
02:22adequate time to prepare or recover between challenges. Fans who were already sensing something
02:27felt off about season three compared to the beloved second season latched onto the comments fast.
02:31Oh, are you going to do this in time? I'll play with my mind. Let me get on with it.
02:36Where's the earrings? Got any earrings? Oh, God.
02:41Look, cows, you look unreal. Oh, Sue, don't cry.
02:45However, some of the contestants who were on the season pushed back. Queens like Ella Vidae and
02:50River Medway both disputed Willem's version of events, suggesting the claims were highly exaggerated.
02:56Sometimes we have fictional facts.
02:58Number eight, Maddie Morphosis's shady comment to Silky. Give it to me straight. Who would have
03:02thought that the one straight man would have arguably the shadiest podcast in the drag race
03:06universe? Me and cornbread is the two for one special. Could you handle both of us? Oh,
03:11just a side of ganache and a side of cornbread? Could you handle both of us? You wouldn't know
03:15what to do with us two women, honey. I'm willing to learn. In this episode of Give it to me
03:19straight,
03:20Maddie welcomed Silky Nutmeg Ganache, who by then had already competed on three seasons.
03:25Yes, in this house, we acknowledge her phenomenal run on Canada versus the world.
03:29Out of nowhere, Maddie casually asked Silky which franchise she would like to compete on next,
03:34but not in the way you would expect. Silky looked genuinely stunned before mustering a response.
03:39You were on season 11, All-Star 6, and Canada versus the world. What franchise do you want to
03:44lose next? Damn, I hope I don't lose anymore. I'm still trying to wrap my mind around Canada versus
03:53the world. It fit Maddie's reputation for Playful Shade. Just ask Nikki Dahl, whose appearance
03:58featured a hilariously petty back-and-forth after she joked that Maddie seemed more committed to
04:03drag presentation than she was that day. It's because I take my job seriously,
04:07unlike the host of Drag Race France. It's a job for you? It is a job. It's literally how I
04:11pay my
04:11bills. It's my life. This is not a job. Every day is a gift for me. So you don't take
04:17your life
04:18seriously? Well, I'm still gay. Number 7. Sasha Colby Passes on Mistress,
04:24The Kelly Mental Show. Sometimes saying nothing can be one of the messiest moves to make.
04:29During her appearance on The Kelly Mental Show, Sasha Colby was asked to give quick impressions
04:33of her season 15 sisters. Lucy LaDuca. Lucy's great. We were like neighbors. We had our like work
04:41area right next to each other. So we kind of just whispered to each other. And we were kind of,
04:45we were the only ones that knew each other's like jokes. And yeah, she was just always a good time.
04:49She had warm, funny or thoughtful things to say about nearly every queen until Kelly landed on
04:55Mistress Isabel Brooks. For a queen widely regarded as one of the most diplomatic and composed in
05:08Drag Race herstory, the refusal to engage only created a vacuum that fans quickly filled with
05:14speculation. Mistress later revealed in a conversation with Kerry Colby that she and Sasha had at some
05:19point blocked each other. Many connected this to the All-Stars 10 moment where Mistress orchestrated
05:35a scheme against Kerry and Nicole Paige Brooks. Number 6. Willem and Courtney Act air their grievances.
05:41R&R with Courtney Act.
05:43I was trying to think back because I knew I was coming here and that was one of the things
05:46we
05:46were going to talk about. I was trying to think about what was the first brick that I threw at
05:51them. My problem with them started out with them not treating other people how they would want to be
05:59treated. Listening to Willem criticize Drag Race is practically a franchise tradition at this point.
06:04But this was the first time many got to hear season 6 finalist Courtney Act also weigh in.
06:09During an episode of Courtney's podcast, the two queens openly discussed their strained
06:13relationships with Drag Race and World of Wonder.
06:16They let me think that whole month leading up that I was going to be on All-Stars and gave
06:21me
06:21the list and everything. And then two days before I'm supposed to be there like yeah it's not going
06:25to work. And they said you have no stakes with any of the other cast members. Stakes meaning they
06:31wanted me to fight with Fifi. Willem revisited complaints about contestant treatment and limited
06:35resources during filming. She talked about how the queens were given meager amounts for feeding
06:40and how the crew members forgot their names and even used discriminatory language around them.
06:44We don't let straight people disrespect us and call us he she's or whatever else they were
06:49calling us because there was all that kind of talk. It was 2012. We had a straight girl who
06:53worked with Chanel named Casey who said I like y'all I just don't know about gay marriage and that
06:58you
06:58know. Willem also highlighted that due to her strained relationship with World of Wonder,
07:03she has reportedly been cut off from all Viacom productions. Meaning there is practically zero
07:08chance of seeing her back on Drag Race. Yeah you're kind of creating like your own world and your own
07:13legacy and. Me and Alaska are not f***ing around by calling it moguls immediate. Like this is the
07:17beginning. I'd like to be able to help break a ceiling down and pull girls up by their
07:22ponytails. That's why you gotta pin your hair on girls. Number five. Luscious Massacre and Valentina
07:26question Bob and Monet's drag commitment. Only Child with Bob the Drag Queen and Monet talks with
07:32Monet Exchange. I do not like it when drag queens get to a point where they are so they feel
07:37like
07:37they're so famous they don't have to get in drag anymore. I don't like it Bob. In 2026 drag queens
07:44Luscious Massacre and Valentina maximized their joint slate to deliver a biting takedown of Bob
07:49the Drag Queen and Monet Exchange. On Bob's podcast Only Child, Luscious questioned why successful drag
07:54race alumni stopped regularly appearing in drag as their careers evolve. And I don't like this these drag
08:00queens now that they think they're so famous now they get to just be men. Just dudes. That is a
08:05hill
08:06that I'm willing to die on. I don't like it. Who gonna be the girls? There's so many. Wait are
08:11you
08:11are you talking about me? Luscious wrapped the thinly veiled comment in an oh I'm just asking beau
08:16while sitting directly across from her target. Then Valentina echoed similar sentiments while
08:21appearing on Monet talks. If Luscious was trying to be sly Valentina threw subtlety out the window
08:26and directly called out Monet. You know what else is delusional? What? For you to be sitting here not in
08:31full drag. You know me and Luscious talked about this. Although Bob and Monet tried defending
08:36themselves against this claim, it certainly didn't help that they both appeared at the Stop That Train
08:41premiere not long after out of drag. What do you think is more chaotic, the Drag Race workroom or the
08:45hair and makeup trailer on this film? Oh god, the Drag Race workroom always. Always. Always. Everyone's
08:50always upset, mad, perturbed about something that happened on the runway two days ago. Everyone on the
08:59Minge calls out the All-Stars 10 cast, The Kelly Mantle Show. This one unraveled so fast it was
09:05almost hard to keep up. On the podcast, Ginger Minge claimed her All-Stars 10 castmates had been
09:10supportive during filming, but disappeared once she started receiving fan backlash as the season aired.
09:15Once it started airing, they just started one by one kind of defecting and going, oh I can get more
09:23traction on this post if I trash Ginger, or if I say this about her, or I'll wait until next
09:30week and
09:31then I'll say this. She singled out only Mistress Isabel Brooks and Lydia B. Collins as exceptions.
09:36The response from the cast was immediate and pointed. Bosco, Irene, Aja, and Cynthia all rebuffed
09:43these claims. Mistress and Georges also released a video pushing back, with Mistress producing phone
09:48records showing she had never actually spoken to Ginger by phone. Now facing backlash from both
10:08fans and her castmates, Ginger reportedly sent an apology text to the cast, which was later shared
10:13on the Petty Bettys podcast. She only wrote to eight people, but what's more offensive by this
10:18is one, no one responded, but two, because then she went out in public and then doubled down and was
10:23like, oh yeah, these girls, they're still horrible people, after she sent this excuse or apology.
10:28Number three, Trinity the Tuck names names, sibling rivalry. Most guests on Sibling Rivalry know the
10:34assignment. Be funny, throw a little shade, keep it cute. But Trinity the Tuck fully intended to be messy.
10:40I want to start off with some drama. Monet, tell me a Rue girl that you hate.
10:48Come on, fill the T. Don't be giving this answers that you'd be giving Bob.
10:55Appearing alongside her twinner, Monet X Change, Trinity randomly incited a discussion about queens
11:00they disliked. When it was her turn to answer, Trinity named Faramone and Jade Jolie directly.
11:05I used to love Faramone until she started all this drama during COVID for no reason.
11:13Drama? What does she do in drama?
11:15Girl, she tried to get all of her fans to attack me.
11:18She accused Faramone of sicking her fan base on her after Trinity performed at a small,
11:23socially distanced event during the COVID-19 pandemic. Faramone later fired back by accusing
11:28Trinity of being transphobic toward her former partner, which dramatically escalated the situation.
11:32I don't fault her for not remembering details, but what she said that I said was not anything. I
11:38didn't say anything to do with that. That was somebody else. And I'm putting this to bed and
11:45moving on.
11:47As for Jade Jolie, Trinity cited disrespect toward both her and her drag daughter,
11:52as well as describing Jade as genuinely difficult to work with professionally.
11:56She spit on somebody in their face and called them fat.
12:02It was a fact that this happened.
12:05Girl, there's a recording. There is a recording out there of this.
12:09Number two, Paper Dressgate, Race Chaser with Alaska and Willem and the Petty Bettys podcast.
12:15Drag queen podcast drama rarely comes with spreadsheets, receipts, screenshots, and invoices.
12:20But Paper Dressgate did. The controversy began when designer Chakra appeared on Race Chaser
12:25and claimed that Acid Betty had failed to properly pay for a paper doll garment she wore on All
12:30Stars 10.
12:31Randomly, I get a payment, but it wasn't the full amount. It was like two-thirds of the amount.
12:38I'm like, well, you still owe me over $1,000.
12:41A year later?
12:41This was in February.
12:43Hosts Willem and Alaska platformed the claim without verifying a single detail,
12:47with Willem even piling on.
12:49Acid responded on the Petty Bettys with text messages,
12:52emails, and financial receipts proving she had paid $2,500 for the garment,
12:57but that the designer failed to execute the garment, leaving Acid to complete it herself.
13:01Do you see how I literally had to redo the entire back?
13:05I had to literally re-pull out everything and redo it all.
13:08I added every ounce of the little paper that he gave me to the back.
13:14You can see the back chest. The whole thing, that's all mine.
13:16The sentiment quickly swung in her favor.
13:18Alaska later issued a direct apology, while Willem acknowledged she had wrongly relied
13:23on one-sided information.
13:25This was not something I should have tried to transvestigate.
13:30We have luscious massacre for that.
13:32Her rates are fair.
13:33It wasn't like I was relishing the chance to take somebody down,
13:37but I was trying to bring clarity to a situation which was none of my business.
13:42Number one.
13:43Bob the Drag Queen vs Ginger Minj.
13:45Monet talks with Monet X Change.
13:47After he posted the video with him and Naomi,
13:51the very first one that kind of kicked everything off, about the wig.
13:55It all started with a wig, one belonging to Naomi Smalls.
13:58In a YouTube video from Bob the Drag Queen's channel,
14:01Bob and Naomi claimed that Ginger had borrowed the wig from Naomi,
14:04backcombed it into an unrecognizable ball, and returned it completely destroyed.
14:09When Ginger appeared on Monet Talks, she denied the story,
14:13claiming she had never even worked with Naomi.
14:15So I had reached out to Bob and said,
14:18I don't recall this ever happening, but I don't know Naomi.
14:22So if you could, please forward my contact information to her,
14:26have her reach out to me.
14:28If something did happen, I would love to make it right.
14:30She also seemed to point the finger at Bob for directing a lot of hate toward her.
14:34Bob responded with an extensive YouTube video defending his version of events,
14:38including presenting evidence that Ginger and Naomi had in fact worked together.
14:42This is a picture of them on a tour together.
14:45I was on this tour.
14:47Chi-Chi was on this tour.
14:48Robbie Turner was on this tour.
14:50We're all here in this, in this, I don't think I mentioned this picture,
14:53but I was on this tour.
14:54Bob admitted to being messy and exaggerating for comedic effect,
14:57but firmly rejected accusations that he fabricated stories.
15:01I have embellished things before, but I genuinely feel in my heart of hearts,
15:07when I'm doing a bit, it is so obvious.
15:09I'm doing it for comedic effect, right?
15:12Did we miss a spicy podcast moment that deserves a spot on this list?
