Just finished watching the first episode from last night...

I don't know what I think yet. I have no words.

Okay, one thing:

Is it just me, or does it seem like too many of the girls look like past contestants?

Discuss...

I was wondering why no one started a thread.... the biggie smalls looking queen

Yeah, this bunch looks kind of low-budget.

My top 3 instant faves:

Sharon Needles (she might be the one to redeem the quirky ones looked over in years past). I watched some videos (of her speaking, rather than doing musical numbers) and bitch is funny.

Also she gives great illusion (judged not on beauty, tho I think she can give scary-pretty , but strickly on what she achieves from boy to Sharon). I like that she's wild and weird.

Jiggly Caliente she killed that lip-synch for your life!

Kenya Michaels fishhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! She's a fierce lil bitch. Wepa!

I also have watched videos of Madame LaQueer in the past, she'd be my other fave so far.

I think it's funny that they're letting Willam get to them. I find him/her quite funny. It's clear that he's being an actor and he's set out to be the bitch (everyone always remembers the bitch on these shows).

I was hoping you'd have time to weigh in!

I don't know all the names yet, but that one who went off on Jiggly is not cute enough to be so indignant.

Jiggly DID kill!

I Googled Willam, and his roles listed on Wikipedia are underwhelming (i.e. Bus Stop Drag Queen, Butch Queen, Transsexual...)

She had a recurring role in Nip/Tuck for a while. And there's a great low-budget (funny) movie called Ticked Off Trannies with Knives she was in. And Sex & City or whatever else. Trust that for most drag queens those are pretty big gigs. They all frontin.

Folk trynna act like "oh I been doin this drag for ___ years and I'm successful. Don't be talkin bout being on tv etc etc..." like they not on this show so someone will put them on tv and movies.
Willam is baiting them and keeping his cool (so far) cause it's the role he's playing and they're walking right into it.

I get that.

I have a friend who's not drag queen, but an actress. Getting ANY roles are a big deal.

I was watching TV one night, and she was on a MY Lottery commercial. I was soooo happy for her!

I looked Willam up after he kept going on about having worked with "Oscar Winners". I was interested to see what he was about.

The judges' comments during the Runway portion were priceless!

They usually do a marathon leading up to the season premiere, which was Monday.

They played all 3 previous seasons.

I think this might be Logo's biggest cross-over show.

Noah's Ark probably second.

I never watched it but I do remember a lot of non-gay people discussing it.

I think all of my favorites are the same as Johnart.

LOVE Sharon Needles. I love her wild, scary style and I love her schtick. The comments she was making when they were going for the materials in the zombie challenge were so funny. The juxtaposition of that and her style is cool to me.

I like Jiggly Caliente. I immediately liked her personality. Her outfit was a MESS but she KILT her lip synch for your life!

I can tell I'm going to LOVE Kenya Michaels' style. I adored her wings!

I'm also partial to Latrice Royale. None of the others made much of an impression for me, but I think Dida Ritz and Madam LaQueer are going to be fun later on.

At first I thought I would really like Alisa Summers but her outfit was garbage and that may have been the WORST lip synch for your life I've seen. She was so stiff and lame.

Willam is annoying. I don't like those on reality shows who go out of their way to be confrontational, abrasive or bitchy for screen time. She comes off as insincere in that regard. She's probably nothing like that.

Lastly, child what the hell is Apoc-a-lock-tic?! Lashauwn couldn't get that right to save his LIFE

This week's interview: Alisa Summers

Another good one!

I think it's funny, tho, that she thought her lip-synch was good. Even one of the others said that Jiggly was better.

Keep 'em coming, Honey!

Yeah, her performance at that particular moment was not very exciting.

OMG have you looked through her fb fanpage.
She gives illusion for daysssss. I love her fuckedup take on pretty.

She is the wittiest by far (so far) IMO.

Latrice might be takin up Jiggly's spot in my Top 3.

If that bitch had a church I'd go.

[Edited 2/6/12 20:40pm]

DiDa needs to go home!!!

I was so busy last week, that I forgot to post!

This week:

There was a ridiculous overuse of the word "realness" in this episode.

• Milan was soooo annoying!
• Chad Michaels looked amazing on the runway!
• Madame LaQueer was a HOT MESS!
• Kenya's gold shoes were HOT!
• Jiggly was terrible on the infomercial.
• Kenya looked adorable in the infomercial in her animal prints.
• I didn't understand Santino's remark about Sharon's bottom half.
• Dida KILLED the lip synch!

I have to be honest: I don't like Jiggly. The first week, I thought, "What's up with those gums?!" I also didn't like the way she was trying to talk so much trash in the beginning.

I decided to give her a chance after John mentioned that he liked her.

But......

I am just not feeling Jiggly.

My fave: Latrice Royale. That is a fierce big heifer!

I liked Jiggly in the first episode, but it wasn't until the Untucked stuff that they started showing how she'd been acting behind the scenes, whcih I'm totally NOT feelin.

I'd replace her with Latrice to round out my TOP 3 (as of now, subject to change )

Sharon Needles is still the fiercest bitch in the bunch and the one to beat IMO.

I can easily see the final 2 being Latrice and Sharon.

At first, I wasn't feeling Sharon. But now I like how her looks come together.

I thought that both of her looks in the infomercial were really well executed.

I've been fighting the urge to say "that's not Soy Sauce in your panties." ALL. DAY. LONG. The way JigglyCaliente said it was funny to me because it was so mechanical and terrible. I loved that outfit though. I wouldn't mind strutting around in that myself.

I honestly almost forgot about Milan until she just took over my po' li'l Kenya's leadership role. I love Milan's fashion sense but that was so pushy! I can understand Kenya just fine! I love her voice period. She's just sweet as can be to me.

Of course I'm rooting for Sharon Needles because everyone's trying to stick her in the Goth bubble, but girlfriend brings an A-game that I can admire 100%. I am dyyyyying to get those contacts she wears.

Willam is going to get spanked. I just...I just want to spank that sassy booty. I might need to work that one out in the comfort of a long leather couch with a therapist.

I have to be honest:

• I'm glad Madame LaQueer is gone. It had nothing to do with Michelle hating green. MLQ was weak.
• I'm a little tired of Phi Phi, too. That was drama with Sharon, pure and simple.
• Still not feeling Jiggly.
• I Latrice. I think that big chick works it.

Top 3: Chad, Sharon, and either Dida or Willam.

Top 5 (Viva Glam): Chad, Sharon, Dida, Phi Phi, Willam.

Willam is a dark horse and is one to watch. Dida Ritz is also proving to be a contender. She can rock that teen glam shit that Willam does and I dare say Dida MAY be prettier than Willam even when Willam covers that 5 o'clock shadow and Dida lotions up them ashy knees. I was wondering where Santino was - Dida was giving him his own interior illusion and its all over those crusty sharp knees!

* Possible Spoiler (Kinda but not really) *

I have seen from the previews posted on LOGOTV.com that Sharon and PhiPhi will lip sync against each other. It is in the first preview they posted where one is dancing like a devil (Sharon) and one is dancing ike an angel (Phi Phi). It's clear that this showdown is many episodes in the making. If its one or the other, I would be supremely shocked that Phi Phi beat Sharon out, so I am hoping Sharon can pull it off. She is not much of a dance-y queen, so who knows.

* Possible Spoiler (Kinda but not really) *

Other than that, I expect Latrice to go far, but not likely past another episode or 3. I am certain Milan is out next week and I am certain Kenya is out after that. Sorry Kenya! She's just simply 1) not coherent enough and 2) too short. Fishy! But as much personality as a chihuahua (which she apparently impersonates often). Latrice is a solid contender, but not a winner. She simply is too Stately Old Queen to win the competition. She reminds me of Dorian Corey (quote from my sig!) in that she is wise and smart and great at what she does, but she ain't Pepper LaBeija. She ain't gonna be the big winner in the end.

So again, Chad Michaels is a surefire bet for top 3. If you dn't think so, mark my words now. Chad will be top 3 and I personally believe she will take the entire contest. Do not count her out and do not count Ru's preference for her (and LA queens in general, and the fact Chad is Morgan McMichaels' drag mother). Keep an eye out for Dida Ritz and Willam. They will go far, I am sure of it. Willam has coasted thus far on INs and Dida has shown she can be pushed to turn out a better performance when the time comes. Think Tatianna. Not a winner, obviously, but definitely top 5.

Um and I don't even care about Jiggly. NOT EVEN BOTHERED. She is hateful and ugly and ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz boring.

Sry for the huge post, I have literally been wanting to discuss this for a month but I was banned.

[Edited 2/22/12 0:56am]

been watching religiously...

i never liked madame, aside from her character in the wrestling challenge. she and milan kept talking about how they are actors but were horrendous in the acting challenge... go figure.

milan can go soon. i was very charmed by the thought of a sweet broadway style queen in the first episode, but she really hasnt given much. last episode's lipsynch for her life was the only decent thing i have seen

i dont like jiggly. i have never liked jiggly, and i doubt i ever will. she's mediocre at best and needs to go soon. she's out of her depth in this show

willam is kinda okay. if you like a queen who looks like she lives off crack and ego, she's your girl. i find her bland as all hell and think she will go before the top 5

i dont understand why no one has commented to phi phi that for being a very attractive 20 something boy, she insists on looking like a 40 something woman without giving us 40 something woman character. she's a boring showgirl

i adore kenya and chad. i imagine they wil got to the top 5.

i was really ready for dida to go several times in the first few episodes, but that lip sysnch was OFF THE CHARTS AWESOME and she killed the sitcom challenge. if she can continue to quickly turn it around the way she has, she could easily be top 3.

latrice royal is prob my favorite this season and seems like a sure thing for top 3. nice to finally see a big girl who could go all the way to the end. she is full of charm, character, and fun. i doubt she will win, but i LOVE her...

sharon is a riot and a very unique and singular queen. i would be very surprised if she doesnt win.

Hey Chris!

I was thinking about you the other day... How I haven't seen you on FB or here.

How is everything?

hi honey!

i am very well. got a job bartending and have been working my ass off. (literally... lost about 20 pounds so far)

plus been working on my plays and doing a LOT of photography. they are building me a photo website (with logo and all!), and between choosing which pics should be in the portfolio and shooting, and work, and writiing... been kinda removed from online.

how are you?
