🤣🤣🤣

I lowkey find that episode unwatchable but Alexis and her iconic fake boyfriend is the one saving grace

I think that was true

I don’t consider this “self producing” if the producers told her to do so🌚.

@@Abraham-tt2qq stop you're ruining my childhood :(

Yeah, i definitely agree. They've seen over the seasons/years how the Fandom has gone after queens they thought have done or said something wrong, in their opinion. The so called fandom is so dang toxic! I mean come on, look at the people/"fans" that send death threats to queens and then go next level and find out their parents/families social media or even phone numbers and send them hate and death threats too. SMDH. It's just a drag TV show people, why take it so dang seriously to the extent of threatening queens AND their families? I'll never understand their thinking.

110% correct

i hate how incredibly toxic and aggressive this fandom has become. I as a 16 year old girl have had a 40 year old man call me a straight cis cunt who has no idea what she’s talking about, and that I have to stay in my lane as a woman. ONLY FOR DEFENDING A QUEEN WHO GOT DEATH THREATS! not only is that increadably inappropriate and creepy, but also sexist and wrong. they keep making assumptions about queens and the people who support them, like I‘m neither straight nor am I cis. I‘m just glad that there are still these people like you guys who know how toxic all of that behavior is

@@paulirosa2075 The behavior of that person is deplorable and they should be ashamed. The ignorance and lack of maturity of these people is sad. You dont have to like every queen but the fact that they are so immature that they cannot handle their dislike in an adult manner is horrible. And then to attack others who dont think the same again shows their immaturity. So many have become online gangsters because they are behind a screen and dont have to deal with the ramifications of their actions. They need to start implementing some form of punishment when this occurs especially the death threats. This type of behavior shouldn't be tolerated or accepted. I'm sorry you even had to go through that

@@Jolie702 that was so beautifully worded

She has an accent? I never heard it.

@@PatrickCervantez you should watch people interviewing her at drag con and stuff. The louder she is the more her accents comes out

Not a fake accent, but what about a fake persona? 💁‍♀️

I have that. I'm from Brooklyn, so when I'm back in NY, I sound more like my old self. When I'm home in Ohio, I tend to code-switch, enunciate, and sound more Midwestern. When I'm with my Latino family, I tend to roll my R's and drop my S's with more of a Hispanic twang, but when I'm with my Arab side, my P's and V's become B's and F's. And being around my Jamaican friends, I can't help but speak Patois (my father also spoke Patois growing up, so it's natural to me). When you move as much as I have, and grow up with a diverse community, you're bound to pick up those dialects.

Yes that's what I thought. I'm Bilingual aswell and of course In my native language(dutch) I speak like a dutch person. I think that's what Plastique meant, I know now after so long people don't notice or almost don't notice that I'm dutch anymore, but speaking english in a dutch accent is still super easy for me because that IS how I speak naturally without thinking about it.

Truth!

Exactly!!

PREACH!!!

it's happened with season 14 💀

She apparently wasn't a singer either... *proceeds to win Madonna challenge* She really wasn't a comedian either... *proceeds to win snatch game* I don't hate her, but Mera hit the nail on the head, how can you connect with someone who's telling you what you want to hear

@@yepitsthatguy5278 She's very talented, but no one wants to watch someone say 'I'm about to win this' then win every single episode. I think she knew her strengths and wanted to play them down

@@jude_illusion yeah, but being good at most of the things and claiming that you are bad at them is also not so well received, it's like in school: "Oh no I didn't study for this test" and receives the best grade

i mean the ball and the snatch game don't have dance included hun

@@marcosgregorio1110 Madonna Challenge, Losing is the New Winning and she was Top 2 for the I'm That Bitch

Can't believe she wasn't mentioned here

Nah silky really like that and just needed a reason

@@casswashwash1070 well, I don’t know her personally. I just know what she said and did during the show :)

@@jcbrightman i could not stand her on the show, she was insufferable. i tried to love her but she was evil at times lol!

As a Asian person as well, Plastique’s story makes sense to me. I think the voice she used in the show with or without accent are both her voices, there’s no “True” voice or “Fake” voice. Sometimes accent would be stronger, sometimes there’s no accent. And I really appreciate her aesthetic can be recognized and liked by so many people (according to her instagram and TikTok followers) because I think her aesthetic is not “Asian stereotypes” aesthetic, her aesthetic is something that Asian people can really relate to. Therefore, I am so glad her appearance on the show, she is very representative.

@@abbychen6560 I can def believe the accent thing, I slip into my native accent from time to time, but not "knowing pop culture"...she literally lives on TikTok lol. I'm not buying it.

@@midnitehour1 exactly lol she didn't know Mariah carey??? People in 3rd world countries without TVs no that woman lol

@@abbychen6560 Also, it's her accent when she speaks english. As an asian as well, I speak english to my family and my asian peers in an asian accent but when I speak english to other people in the world I speak in my american accent

@@midnitehour1 I feel like it's an immigrant culture + age kind of thing. You can live in an immigrant household and you're only consuming your native media especially if that's what your parents are watching and if your friends in school are also only your race. Plus Plastique was 21 when she got on, she's only probably consuming current pop culture like ariana grande, etc. I'm pushing 20 and I only know some Mariah Carey but I have to literally seek the info, it's not being fed to me.

But I don’t think that was a self production, I think the show tried to edit out her bad moments

@@ColePenner Thats fair, don’t even know what the show got out from doing that besides giving her a bad name

Aja & Val planned the fight. It was Farrah & Shea who took the bait & jumped in 🤣

@@siradoodle maybe they knew she’d be a fan favourite and wanted to double down on that for ratings? Not sure...

She is sweet though, but she's human and also had her bad moments like anybody else. Production didn't show both sides though bc they control the narratives of each queen. Let's not forget that in the reunion, we learn she shared her care package with the girls who were having trouble with their isolation. We also learn by an interview with Peppermint that Valentina would keep her company anytime she wanted to go down to the pool. If sweet Peppermint considers Valentina her "sister", then I'm going to trust her judgment. To clarify some things: When Valentina exited season 9, she became very vulnerable & went into a deep depression. She cut herself off from the world, so she didn't respond to texts or social media drama. Valentina chose to let them attack her & get villanized, rather than to admit her depression on TV -- that's the Latina pride, I tell you. It's why she told Farrah they'll talk about it later, which they did & made up once Farrah got the whole story. Anyhow, she does self-produce, but I wouldn't say that makes her fake. Drag is an intentional act of fantasy. Her drag persona is influenced by Telenovelas & Pageant Queens, so she plays up the insane diva role, yet people can't seem to separate her art from her own true personality. In any case, Valentina is a frickin millionaire. She knew exactly what she was doing. She absorbed the drama & merchandised the heck out of it. She a marketing genius, hunnay.

How?she was 100% heeself lol

@@DearDanny no she was not. she absolutely was self producing. the character cracked when she was in the bottom and katya was in the top

@@jeremias8650 she id judt that way lol remeber season 5 crowning? Also her bud breaking?

@@jeremias8650 but that's just alaska, alaska throws tantrums on the show, off the show, bob the drag queen has talked about one specific incident with her but she always puts it together when its time to perform. She wasnt self producing that is exactly who she is lol

@@Aced84 im not saying she wasn’t alaska during the tantrum, she wasn’t alaska before that. during the tantrum is when we actually see her

Was my immediate thought

great. cut.

action

She was quite immature...

Idk the attacks on Lemon didn’t seem like a sweetheart to me

Hang on a second!!! Ilona Verley is known to be THE bitch in Vancouver

@@hectorp.c6955 yea she did address this on insta a few months ago around before the finale of CDR she said she was going through a lot and started acting out and doing a lot of cruel stuff and because of that some people that have worked with her may say negative things because of that she has been trying to better herself because she doesn't want to be that person anymore I think it was smart of her to address it before some random youtuber made a video about it

Same I LOVED Max on his season. He was slaying the competition until snatch game and his edit was *so* shady.

Nope, that's what the confessionals are for...

I am one of them. I definitely can relate to their guarded attitude. If we don't need to speak, we'll just don't bother. And we can bottle up our feelings. Yup, that's introvert for you.

They dont love any of you back. And you know it.

Yes, I agree, I totally love Kameron 😍

I’m a complete and total introvert and no, Kameron came off very fake to me. It’s not a blanket generalization.

Amen.

Exactly. It was so rude to critisize Plastique for the way she speaks and it really makes me wonder if the judges don't know any bilingual immigrants.

I've said it before and I'll say it again- with the exception of Valentina and Rita Baga, the show hates bilingual people for some reason.

Asian accents are beautiful....don’t feel the need to cover it up!

100%. I also agree, don’t hide it, it’s beautiful.

Nah Ariel was really honest with herself and upfront with others.

I think they explained why, because they thought Aquaria was being a bit more honest about why she was holding back

I have such a soft spot for Kameron post-show, her Tik Toks are fucking hilarious

I think Kameron was holding back but not intentionally. She had an abusive boyfriend at the time and she just got into the most stress and pressure a queen would be put into so I think her mental health was just fucked.

Same sis same.

i think there's a difference between focusing on the competition and being self produced. she was just totally obsessed with winning, hence the meltdown when she was on the bottom. i didn't find her personality changing that much between s5 and as2, she was talking more of where she was coming from internally, being that on s5 there was all the boyfriend-of-the-winner baggage. she didn't want to be caught failing as a competitor the second time around. it was not about being lovable, it was about winning, which is kind of the opposite of what we're talking about.

Omgggg her lip syncs are so, SO good!

Yeah especially after the reunion when no one said they wanted her to win

I always liked and related to Kameron. I always worry about what people will think of me, regardless of the cost. For Kameron it was 100k. And some people like Eureka very much could attest to knowing / liking who Kameron was. I just felt so bad for them.

if you let fans opinions get in the way of 100k you have issues

@@checkeredvans1015 you say that like Kameron hasn't made 100k since then... spoilers alert she has 😂

@@checkeredvans1015 mental health is more important than money

I think the issue with Kameron wasn't just that she was censoring herself, the other Queens felt really bad because after the show she basically ignored them, wouldnt talk to them, on her phone the whole time etc.

Valentina is delusional, it's not a character, and also quite the diva.

I read some rumors about it as well. It seems like Gigi was supposed to be some kind of villain and her younger aesthetic would crash with Sherry‘s old school aesthetic. Which is funny because even without editing, Sherry was really mean and bitchy a lot of times (joining on the Aiden bullying, making insensitive jokes about Parkinson’s even after learning about Chrystal‘s situation, sabotaging Jaida‘s stand up routine by going way past the one limit...) I‘m really curious how they would edit these scenes to make her the likebale protagonist

@@majelalover8837 Remember when she read Widow all of a sudden. And Widow shut her down lol.

Once!🍭

hiii fellow onceee 💕

Yeah exactly I love Tia Kofi from UK2 but im not driven to follow her Instagram because that is just not what she excels at

I love Mera lol but she def hates Jackie

I dont blame her for disliking Jackie. I also dislike Jackie lol

Remember when they were talking about how much they love Crystal and were gaging about her monster look in the purple challenge? CRYSTAL WAS THE COW, JACKIE WAS THE MONSTER

@@stevenszmutko3501 crystal was a cow???😱 I thought she was a purple monster lol she even made claw gestures

yeah, not mentioning Silky boggles my mind

Plastique wasn't lying when she said they didn't "know" about Mariah Carey where she grew up because they only knew about the songs Mariah Carey had. And to further prove this point, from where I'm from not even half of our population knows who Kanye West is AT ALL.

But when the cameras cut, Max immediately stopped using the accent as discussed in Untucked

@@Frikka3 Probably because they felt more comfortable because they weren't scared of how they'd be perceived by the world.

no that's literally her

@@luizflc9937 it's her but the moments were done deliberately for the camera.

@@sorchabelton8249 no they werent HDHDHSHD she's 100% herself and she never self produced, just look at her outside of the show
