RuPaul's Drag Race 10x6

1. - Previously on "RuPaul's Drag Race"...

2. You'll be appearing on the daytime talk show

3. Bossy Rossy.

4. - I think we're ready for the breakthrough.

5. - Oh, my God.

6. - Mayhem Miller.

7. - It just was overshadowed by Dr. Dill.

8. - Monét X Change.

9. - You have to be over the top and insane

10. with this kind of comedy,

11. and it just fizzled out for me.

12. - Eureka.

13. - You were a big baby.

14. - I thought you were amazing.

15. - Eureka, you are the winner of this week's challenge.

16. Monét X Change, shantay, you stay.

17. Mayhem, sashay away.

18. - Ooh. - Whew.

19. - She's the other quiet girl.

20. She's the other quiet girl. Now I'm alone.

21. - She led by example.

22. You better pipe the up.

23. Chirp, chirp.

24. - I feel so bad even wiping this down.

25. For me to be in the bottom two a second week in a row,

26. it is so disheartening.

27. I walked in here feeling so strong,

28. but here, it's just not shining through,

29. and I just... I don't know.

30. - You killed it tonight, girl.

31. - Well, girl, I destroyed my entire garment, girl.

32. - You will buy a new one, and it'll be the accurate cut.

33. No shame. Facts are facts.

34. - Yeah!

35. - No shame. Facts are facts.

36. Love you. Facts are facts.

37. - All right, brown cow.

38. - Ooh, all right.

39. - Monét has an incredible reputation

40. being one of the funniest people in New York.

41. So I don't understand why she's buckling under pressure.

42. - I have a lot of mixed feelings,

43. because I was finally able to make my comedy

44. come through in this competition.

45. But I came here to win.

46. - You always get so close to winning.

47. This is like the third time.

48. - Girl, always the bridesmaid.

49. - The Susan Lucci of Season 10.

50. - Every win is a step towards the crown,

51. and I have not won a single challenge.

52. I've got to start that winning streak.

53. - Let's get the out of drag.

54. - Get me out of this country couture clown suit.

55. - Monét X Change, drag, girl.

56. - I'm so happy you're here.

57. - I'm throwing this outfit away.

58. - Girl, do whatever you feel is best.

59. - Monét is a fierce queen

60. and I love her to death,

61. but her drag is very hit or miss.

62. She's always got on

63. these little bitty Dennis the Menace wigs.

64. - Move, bitch. Come on and walk.

65. Come on and walk, bitch.

66. - If another time comes when you're not fabulous

67. in the challenge, if you don't look great on the main stage,

68. you're going home.

69. - Asia, your back is ashy.

70. They ought to dock you.

71. - And your talent is in the bottom two.

72. - The winner of "RuPaul's Drag Race"

73. receives a one year supply

74. of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics

75. and a cash prize of $100,000.

76. With extra special guest judges Kumail Nanjiani

77. and Emily V. Gordon.

78. - Come on, come on, let's go, let's get it.

79. Get it.

80. - Today is a new day.

81. I'm so happy to be here right now.

82. I'm so happy to be here.

83. I'm feeling pretty secure right now.

84. I want to feel more than insecure.

85. I want to feel like I'm at the top of the heap.

86. - We live to die another day.

87. - Hee hee hee hee hee.

88. - This laugh is unacceptable.

89. - That should be the laugh to the commercial break

90. on "RuPaul's Drag Race."

91. Hee hee hee hee hee.

92. - Ooh, girl.

93. She done already done had herses.

94. My queens, at this point in the competition,

95. it's time to separate the pros from the cons.

96. America's next drag superstar

97. needs to walk up in the club merch first.

98. And, yes, I do take the EBT.

99. - Come on, merch first.

100. - Hello, hello, hello.

101. - Hi. - Hi.

102. - Yes, Mrs. Charles.

103. - Ladies, for today's mini challenge,

104. we're going to play the new game that's sweeping the nation.

105. Sitting on a Secret.

106. Here's how you play: blindfolded,

107. you take turns identifying mystery items

108. simply by sitting on them.

109. Whoever guesses the most objects wins.

110. Are you ready? - Yes.

111. Let's play...

112. First up, Monique.

113. It's time to start relying on that booty.

114. - The secret is a fax machine.

115. - Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo.

116. - You're very careful about what you sit on.

117. - You better believe it.

118. Usher's out here giving people the drip-drip.

119. You've got to be careful.

120. - Slightly feels like a transformer.

121. - Oh! - What is your booty saying?

122. - It's saying it's breakable, whatever it is.

123. A fax machine? - Yes.

124. - Girl, y'all got me in here sitting on a fax machine?

125. - Just the fax, ma'am.

126. The secret is an eggplant.

127. - Ooh. It was bigger than I expected, Ru.

128. - You've got to use your between me down there.

129. - It feels good, Ru.

130. - You're sitting on a secret. What is it?

131. - It's squishy, but it hasn't exploded on me yet.

132. - What are you sitting on?

133. - An avocado?

134. - Feels like an eggplant.

135. - Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding. - Is that right?

136. Whoo!

137. - The secret is a traffic cone.

138. - Am I getting it?

139. This is different.

140. - Oh, she gonna cock one leg up—

141. Ooh, girl, yes, honey.

142. You think it's gonna hurt,

143. but if you want it, it will not hurt.

144. - A traffic cone?

145. - You are absolutely right.

146. The secret is a bag of chips.

147. What what's in your butt?

148. - A bag of chips.

149. - Yes! All right, Eureka, have a seat.

150. - Ooh!

151. - Was that you?

152. - That one might have been me.

153. The secret is a pork chop.

154. It goes great with apple sauce.

155. - Pork chop.

156. - Yes, ma'am. - Yes!

157. - Pork chops and apple sauce.

158. - Come on, "Brady Bunch."

159. - I can pick it up, but I can't say what it is.

160. Girl, I'm Jewish. Am I sitting on ham right now?

161. Is this ham?

162. The secret is marshmallows.

163. What does your butt say?

164. - Definitely smooth.

165. - Work it out, girl.

166. - Ah, spaghetti?

167. - Use your tuchus.

168. Yeah, move it around.

169. - Just gotta get in there now.

170. - Yeah. - Ugh.

171. Are they marshmallows?

172. - Yes! Lady Columbo.

173. The secret is a real fish.

174. - It's like squishy.

175. I can't tell if it's cold or wet.

176. Is it a slab of bacon?

177. - Feel anything?

178. - I'm doing my kegels.

179. - Is it an Easter egg?

180. - This is flat and a little cold,

181. so I want to say Aquaria.

182. The secret is a cake.

183. Back your booty up.

184. - Oh, my God.

185. - Oh, she's weird.

186. - Oh, I don't want to.

187. - Oh, my God!

188. What is this?

189. - Would it be a chocolate cream pie?

190. - It smells like cake.

191. I can already smell it.

192. - I'm sitting in cake.

193. - Oh, is this cake?

194. - It certainly is.

195. - Aah!

196. Ladies, you did such a great job,

197. but one of you really kicked butt.

198. The queen who guessed the most objects is Asia O'Hara.

199. Con-drag-ulations.

200. You've won a $2,000 haircare package from Art Lab Salon.

201. Now, four years ago I created RuPaul's Drag Con,

202. a magical event for young and old, gay and straight,

203. to come together to celebrate love, laughter, and diversity.

204. Now, for a queen, it's a chance to entertain and inspire

205. as she shares the art and power of drag,

206. and make a few coins on the side if she wants to.

207. - Aah!

208. - So for this week's maxi-challenge,

209. you need to create your own Drag Con panels.

210. - Ooh! - Oh, wow.

211. - Now, working in groups of three,

212. you need to prepare a panel discussion, a demo,

213. and be prepared to answer questions

214. in front of a live audience.

215. Now, one group will focus on body,

216. one on face, and another on wigs.

217. Now, in the spirit of Drag Con,

218. I'll let y'all pick your own groups and panel topics.

219. - When Ru says that we can pick our own teams,

220. I'm like, all of these girls

221. are gonna avoid me like the plague, girl.

222. They're gonna be like, we do not want this tainted bitch.

223. So I'm just mentally preparing myself.

224. - Ready? Go.

225. - Wigs. - Face. You wanna do face?

226. - I think Monét having been in the bottom twice,

227. and because I am one of the quieter ones,

228. we were just kind of frozen in the moment,

229. like I hope somebody picks me.

230. - I wanna do body. - I wanna do body, too.

231. - I look at Monét and Kameron, and no one's rushing at them.

232. So I say, hey, do y'all wanna work with me?

233. Let's do this together.

234. - Work. - Yeah.

235. - All right, Blair, The Vixen, Miz Cracker, you're a team.

236. Monét, Kameron, and Eureka, you're a team.

237. And Asia, Monique, and Aquaria, you're teammates.

238. - Eureka's team, that is an interesting group,

239. because this is a speaking challenge.

240. Kameron doesn't talk a lot and Eureka talks too much.

241. And then Monét was in the bottom last week.

242. So all of them have issues that they're battling,

243. so we'll see how that goes.

244. - Gentlemen, start your engines,

245. and may the best woman win.

246. Coming up...

247. Uh, one more thing.

248. - I's worried.

249. - You'll be presenting your Drag Con panels

250. in front of—

251. - Stop!

252. - Aah!

253. - All right, all right, body it is.

254. - Okay.

255. - Oh, damn. Okay, okay, it's a party.

256. - For today's maxi-challenge,

257. we'll be doing our own Drag Con panels,

258. focused on face, body, and hair.

259. - So I'm gonna let y'all open and look in that,

260. and I'm gonna take notes.

261. - In this challenge,

262. you have to call upon your skills to own a room.

263. So you need personality, banter, and drag knowledge.

264. - Obviously I've been to Drag Con

265. and I've been on panels before,

266. so we need to make sure that we have a direct plan.

267. Now, they say who's gonna be a moderator.

268. Basically that's just someone that starts it

269. and someone that pushes questions.

270. Which I don't mind doing that, if y'all don't mind.

271. - Yeah, I think since you have the experience.

272. - I am putting my trust in Eureka

273. because I think she knows what she's doing.

274. - I'm basically focusing on how to shape the big-girl body.

275. - Yeah.

276. - Getting the body you want in drag,

277. no matter your shape to begin with.

278. - If you can proportion your body out,

279. that's when sexy comes into play.

280. So that's what I'm gonna be focusing on,

281. is just, like, proportionizing a big figure.

282. - Branding the word "proportionizing"

283. I think will be really genius.

284. - Girl, is that even a word?

285. - It is today.

286. - Proportionizing. - Proportionizing.

287. - Creating the perfect silhouette.

288. - Yes. - That's everything I live for.

289. - Light bulb!

290. Now, all y'all Webster dictionary-holding mofos,

291. don't get crazy.

292. But we've created a word, and it's "proportionizing."

293. Today we will be discussing proportionizing.

294. - Eureka's team, they have that awful tag line.

295. - Because we are...

296. ♪ Proportionizing ♪

297. - Oh, God.

298. Stop!

299. - Hey, cutie-girls.

300. Who's ready for RuPaul's Drag Con?

301. - Yeah!

302. - Hey, ladies. - Hey, RuPaul.

303. - I'm excited about your panel.

304. It's all about makeup, right?

305. - Correct. - Now you're an Instagram queen.

306. Where'd you learn?

307. - I just learned from practicing in my bedroom.

308. - Uh-huh. Now, Asia, what are you gonna bring to this panel?

309. - I used to do makeup for Chanel,

310. and I wanna talk about some of the technical aspects of makeup.

311. - But just remember a lot of times

312. when people go into a situation

313. where they think, oh, I'm the authority,

314. out the window goes all the fun and all the joy of it.

315. You have to convey the joy of makeup.

316. - Yes, ma'am.

317. - You know, people always ask me,

318. can you give me a makeup tip?

319. People want fast things that they can use immediately.

320. How do you contour a nose?

321. How do you put on a false eyelash?

322. - Ru dropped little nuggets,

323. and I surely picked up them little chicken nuggets, honey.

324. Dipping sauce, hot mustard.

325. I'm gonna get 'em, because I'm not going home.

326. - Hey, ladies. - Hey, Ru.

327. - Now, who's been to Drag Con?

328. - I have. - You have?

329. - Yes. - You two are fired.

330. What is your panel gonna be about?

331. - Wigs. - Yes.

332. - Synthetic or humanoid?

333. - Synthetic. - I prefer synthetic.

334. - Something to match your personality.

335. Now, you do hair.

336. - Yeah, we all work with hair.

337. - What do you think in your panel

338. you could teach people about wigs

339. that they don't already know?

340. - For me, people ask me all the time

341. what to do underneath the wig to make sure the bitch stays on.

342. - I actually teach wig classes.

343. I work full-time, besides drag, with a theater company,

344. working on wigs.

345. - I love that. Now, there are three of you.

346. Is there someone who's gonna run the show?

347. Who's gonna moderate the panel?

348. - We're really gonna take turns, like, teaching the class.

349. - You know, I think Drag Con

350. is really just an excuse for queens to hang out,

351. so we're gonna put that at the forefront.

352. - It's a great opportunity to hang out also,

353. but over the years, I have branded every damn thing I can.

354. And you know, that's what you should be doing, too.

355. Just make sure you're funny.

356. Life doesn't have to be so darn serious.

357. Now, I said "darn" because of you, Blair.

358. I just didn't wanna cuss in front of you.

359. - I am so happy that we have wigs.

360. Our plan is to focus on having a lot of fun

361. and keeping it light-hearted.

362. - Hey, ladies.

363. - Hi, Ru. - Hello.

364. - So this body-ody-ody.

365. You guys are all known for your bodies.

366. Now, Kameron, you have a man's body.

367. - I work out about six days a week at home.

368. - Wow. - I feel like

369. there's not a lot of bodybuilder drag queens out there,

370. so I think that's something that I need to bring to light,

371. is the muscle queens.

372. - And that's the topic of your portion of the panel?

373. - Yeah. My portion is gonna be

374. how to feminize a masculine body.

375. - There's a lot of padding going on there.

376. - There is, yeah. - I don't even wanna know

377. what your couch at home looks like.

378. - Torn apart to pieces.

379. - Ms. Monét, last week, you were on the talk show

380. as someone who is addicted to eating her—

381. - Eating her pads. - Hip pads.

382. But you didn't wear any hip pads.

383. You were in the bottom last week.

384. - I was.

385. - So I'm assuming you won't be making

386. those kind of mistakes again.

387. - I shan't.

388. - Monét is gonna have to find the direction

389. that she wants to shine with this panel.

390. I know she can do it.

391. Please, dear Lord God, let her do it.

392. - Well, listen, going into this panel,

393. it's important to be entertaining,

394. learn what your own rhythm is, and have fun.

395. Well, I will see you out there.

396. - Thank you, Ru. - Thank you.

397. - All right.

398. All right, gather round, ladies, gather round.

399. Now, tomorrow on the main stage

400. you'll be presenting your Drag Con panels

401. in front of our extra-special guest judges.

402. The husband-and-wife team

403. behind the Oscar-nominated movie "The Big Sick,"

404. Kumail Nanjiani and Emily Gordon.

405. Oh, right, and one more thing.

406. Drag Con is your chance to make the fans fall in love with you,

407. which is super important, because tomorrow,

408. the audience will be rating each panel and each queen.

409. - Ooh! - Ooh!

410. - So good luck, and don't it up.

411. - I'll go, Aquaria, tell them the why behind the—

412. on why they highlight and contour, and you can say—

413. - I can—like, I have other, like—

414. there's more elements than just the—

415. - Aquaria, I want you to think

416. so that way you can at least say it right now,

417. and that way you're not trying to think of it in that moment.

418. The weak link in this whole chain is Aquaria,

419. because just in conversation she fumbles, which is fine.

420. Everyone doesn't do well in public speaking.

421. But I'm nervous that she'll get lost

422. and not be able to complete and execute.

423. - I would have talked more about

424. how I use more highlight onto the side of my nose—

425. Um, not as much as, like, this is how this is done.

426. Like...

427. - I don't know how I feel about Aquaria's communication skills.

428. Does she look great? Yes.

429. Would I wanna sit and listen to her on a panel? No.

430. I's worried. I is worried.

431. - Coming up...

432. - Where other queens have a large repertoire of drag

433. to choose from, I don't.

434. Should I make a— like, a dress-gown?

435. So within 30 minutes, I have to come up with a garment.

436. - Painted for what? - Filth.

437. - Honey. - Filth. Filth.

438. - I feel good about today, honestly.

439. Drag Con's the most incredible experience I've ever had.

440. - Organic, organic.

441. Today we're doing a Drag Con panel

442. in front of a live audience and the judges.

443. I really wanna shine and really do well today.

444. After the past two weeks that I've been through here,

445. I'm nervous.

446. - Don't even worry about that.

447. those days, you know what I'm saying?

448. That don't even exist anymore.

449. - Your accent, you just make everything sound so sweet.

450. And your accent's making it all okay.

451. And I'm like, I believe what this bitch is saying.

452. - Eureka is a legend

453. for being very loud and very boisterous,

454. but I like working with Eureka. She's fierce.

455. I think those are the hos with a problem, really.

456. - Well, we're gonna do good.

457. - Yeah, I think so, too.

458. - We are. - I'm excited.

459. - Ru said that one of the most important parts

460. of this challenge is that the audience

461. is also going to pick, like, someone that they really liked,

462. or they're kind of almost like a fan favorite.

463. - Right. - So I think

464. one of the most important parts of this entire challenge

465. that a lot of people are forgetting—

466. they're really focused on content—

467. is to be super likeable. - Yeah.

468. - I always like to try and plan things out before I do them,

469. and I'm like, what can I do?

470. So this is my stats notebook

471. that has everything from cast challenges

472. to statistics of things that we can possibly be doing,

473. because I am so completely anal and OCD.

474. I think we need to have fun.

475. It's just talking like normal girls would,

476. like a Sunday brunch.

477. - Yeah, exactly.

478. - Today's runway theme is Hats Incredible.

479. America, every single one of these runway looks,

480. I am having to put together at the last minute.

481. I'm just trying to figure out what should I do for the bottom.

482. Should I make like a dress-gown?

483. - Yeah. - Where other queens

484. have a large repertoire of drag to choose from, I don't.

485. A lot of my looks are having to be made in the workroom,

486. and it's because of the lack of money.

487. I can just put elastic around the waistband,

488. just to make it fast.

489. Honey, I am the MacGyver of drag.

490. I will jimmy-rig that bitch

491. right before it is time for me to get onstage,

492. whether it is hot-glued, safety-pinned, bobby-pinned.

493. - That's gonna be very Naomi from "Mama's Family."

494. Remember the daughter-in-law

495. that always had the off the shoulder ruffle tops? No?

496. - I came to this competition with glitter and Jesus,

497. and, bitch, I'm making it work, okay?

498. - How you feel about your panel?

499. - I feel great about my panel, girl, but—

500. - Who is this?

501. - That's me, bitch.

502. - Wait, what? Oh, my God.

503. Was that a conscious decision you made to look like that?

504. - Yeah, so I started going to the gym with a boyfriend.

505. - Did you do drag here at this point?

506. - No. There's a running joke in Nashville

507. that if I'm not doing drag, I'm in a relationship.

508. And he was one of the people that was like,

509. you're never gonna do drag again.

510. And I threw half my drag in the dumpster when I dated him.

511. And then we broke up and I wanted to come back to drag.

512. I couldn't leave it.

513. And now I have muscles and tattoos,

514. and it's a whole 'nother world from what that first picture is.

515. So it's like— - Girl.

516. - Yeah. In the beginning, I really struggled

517. finding a balance between my new body

518. and the drag that I was used to.

519. It was a challenge

520. when I came back and started doing drag again,

521. because the girls were like, oh, now you look like a dude.

522. You look like a boy, you look like a man in—

523. like a man in a dress because your arms are so big.

524. So it made me self-conscious.

525. You know, I didn't show my arms, and that's challenging.

526. I mean, in drag, I can't wear spaghetti straps,

527. can't wear halter tops.

528. So, you know, I kind of threw that away when I came here.

529. It doesn't matter what your body shape is,

530. you should be able to, you know, put on a dress and put on a wig

531. and go get your life and perform for people.

532. - I'm so inspired, I'm gonna go on a diet.

533. - Girl.

534. - I'm just joking, just joking.

535. - You said that your parents

536. don't even know that you do drag?

537. - So what it is is that I wasn't raised by my biological parents.

538. I was raised by my aunt and my uncle.

539. - Right.

540. - They don't know I do drag,

541. but everyone else in my family does.

542. I grew up in St. Lucia.

543. I'm from the West Indies,

544. and people just don't live out in the open

545. as being homosexual or gay, lesbian, trans, bi,

546. anything in the Caribbean, period.

547. The islands are not the most welcoming to homosexuality,

548. so I won the Ms. Gay Caribbean Pageant, you know that.

549. - Oh, yes, I do, girl.

550. - In 2014, I won a small pageant in Brooklyn,

551. and at the end of the pageant

552. they're taking all these pictures.

553. I'm like, I'm the winner, of course.

554. Please take my picture.

555. The pageant was on Saturday.

556. I wake up Monday morning

557. with, like, 27 missed calls from my mom.

558. I'm like, what happened, what is going on?

559. They sent an article back to St. Lucia

560. with me in drag on the cover of the newspaper,

561. the only newspaper on the entire island,

562. and it's me talking about

563. St. Lucia's first gay pageant winner

564. wins this thing.

565. - She called me, she was like, what is going on?

566. Are you trans, you're gay, what is all this going on?

567. I'm like, no, I was just doing it for a movie thing

568. and it got misconstrued.

569. It was the craziest thing in my life, girl.

570. In retrospect I should have just said, hey, I'm a drag queen.

571. But I, like, lied about it, and there's a small sliver of me

572. that thinks that they might reject me,

573. and that is why I don't want to say it.

574. It's very scary.

575. - What is your hat look inspired by tonight?

576. - It's like a broad-brimmed hat, and it's covered in hair.

577. - Work.

578. - I'm hoping that it doesn't look too homemade.

579. - Girl, that's what I'm hoping,

580. because I had to rework my complete hat.

581. - I watched her make that 30 minutes ago.

582. I cannot believe—

583. - I'm just hoping that Michelle lives for it.

584. - Every time we're out on the runway

585. you are passing your outfit through the sewing machine

586. one more time, and then the judges, they tend to like it.

587. - You know, truthfully,

588. outside of that so-called brown-cow-giraffe,

589. they really did live.

590. I brought some constructed looks,

591. and then I brought a lot of fabric.

592. It is something that I have been struggling with.

593. However, there have been a lot of bitches

594. that had a lot more than me that have gone home,

595. and that's a fact.

596. - Vangie.

597. - Vangie.

598. - Coming up...

599. - Eureka O'Hara is the big-body beautiful.

600. - Ow!

601. Ow, my eye. That hurt.

602. - At what?

603. Welcome to the main stage of "RuPaul's Drag Race."

604. I'm her number-one fan, Michelle Visage.

605. - Um, stalker.

606. Security!

607. - From the talk show Bossy Rossy,

608. it's Ross Mathews.

609. - Thank you for watching. We'll be right back.

610. - And the super-talented couple

611. behind the smash hit movie "The Big Sick,"

612. Kumail Nanjiani and Emily Gordon.

613. Now, Kumail, what do you think of Michelle's silicone valley?

614. - Exquisite. It's very hard to not look.

615. - And Emily, who's the bigger "Drag Race" fan, you or Kumail?

616. - That would have to be me, but to be fair,

617. I'm probably the biggest fan in the universe,

618. so it's not really a fair comparison.

619. - Thanks for the warning.

620. Now, this week, we challenged our queens

621. to create RuPaul's Drag Con panels

622. that make you go, whoa.

623. And later on the runway, category is Hats Incredible.

624. - Gentlemen, start your engines,

625. and may the best woman win.

626. This is an extra-special edition of RuPaul's Drag Con.

627. Please welcome to the stage

628. Eureka, Monét X Change and Kameron Michaels.

629. - Oh, my God. - Yeah.

630. - Hello, y'all.

631. - Looking live.

632. - Yes!

633. - Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.

634. My name is Eureka O'Hara.

635. I'll be doing a little moderating today for our panel.

636. Proportionizing.

637. Creating the perfect silhouette.

638. - Ooh.

639. - We're gonna start with the beautiful Ms. Kameron Michaels.

640. - We all have different proportions

641. that we need to adjust

642. when going from boy into female drag.

643. I am the body-builder Barbie.

644. I have an upside-down triangle shape

645. because I have really broad shoulders.

646. - Isosceles.

647. - Girl, the only triangle I know about

648. is the food pyramid.

649. - You know, I've tried to proportion my body

650. after superheroes in comic books,

651. just that nice big bust,

652. that tiny little waist, and big old hips.

653. So these are my hip pads.

654. In case you've never seen one, this is what they look like.

655. And then when it comes to my bra,

656. I just sew the little bra inserts

657. from the craft department

658. so I can literally strap it on and go quick.

659. - All right.

660. - So that's how I create my perfect shape,

661. because we are what?

662. Proportionizing!

663. - Yes, girl, There you go.

664. - Now Ms. Monét,

665. I have to create my shape on the bottom

666. because I am a flat pancake in the back,

667. but you've got a big old booty back there, girl.

668. - Oh, doesn't she?

669. - Yeah! - Ooh!

670. - Well, listen, I come from a long line of big-booty Judys.

671. My grandmother, my great-great-grandmother,

672. my great-great-great-great-great grandfather.

673. And, yeah, so we do have

674. very nice, plump bottoms in my family,

675. but not all of us got titties and hips and stuff like that.

676. So I had to figure out how to, like,

677. make my body look good

678. so that I can get the menses, you right there, sir.

679. So what I would do is I would take these old tights,

680. when they ripped, instead of throwing these in the garbage,

681. what you do is you fold them up about three or four times

682. and you safety-pin it so that they all stay together.

683. Then what you wanna do is pull your titty fat,

684. your man-boobs, and put it right here in the pocket,

685. you know what I mean?

686. So you still get a nice cleavage.

687. Can we see that? - Girl, she has tricks for tits.

688. - Yes. - Tricks for tits!

689. - Because we are what? - Proportionizing!

690. - Amen?

691. Now, speaking of proportionizing,

692. we all know Eureka O'Hara is the big-body beautiful.

693. You're all about it, girl. Ow!

694. Ow, my eye. That hurt.

695. - But, yeah, so I remember when I was younger

696. I was made fun of for being big.

697. So when I started doing drag,

698. I didn't want to add a lot of padding to my body shape.

699. I didn't want to look bigger.

700. But what I learned is that as a female,

701. you want to have a tight waist, a big hip, and a big breast.

702. Girl, I wear a 52H bra.

703. - Wait, wait, wait, wait. A what?

704. - 52H.

705. - That is eight letters in, bitch, okay?

706. - She can count and do her ABCs.

707. But if you proportion your body as a female,

708. it actually makes you look thinner.

709. So as a boy, I look like a cup of pudding.

710. And as a female, I look like a diva.

711. And I'm giving you cinch and hip and butt,

712. and I'm sweeping every hallway as I walk through it.

713. You know what I mean?

714. So what I learned how to do was...

715. - Proportionizing. - Proportionizing.

716. - Say it with us. One, two, three.

717. Proportionizing!

718. That was good!

719. - Do we have anyone in the audience who has any questions?

720. - Yeah, do you guys have anything for us?

721. - Hop on up.

722. - In today's political climate, why is drag so important?

723. - I think in this political climate right now

724. we're all afraid.

725. And for us to escape maybe the trials and tribulations

726. that we've went through through our lives,

727. we do drag to celebrate ourselves, our femininity.

728. People celebrate drag with us

729. because it's a way for them to escape,

730. and it's a way for them to feel like they belong

731. in a political climate where right now

732. none of us feel like we belong, truly.

733. - Amen.

734. - Oh!

735. - Sit down, sit down.

736. - Talk amongst yourselves. I'm gonna be busy back here.

737. Y'all just— - Well, I think that

738. you should explain your shorts real quick.

739. - Okay, I guess I can.

740. You're trying to distract me so I can't watch.

741. - I know, because you nasty.

742. Focus, girl, focus. - Girl.

743. I am trying to focus... on that D.

744. Okay.

745. So what I have is I have these pad shorts,

746. and it's a pair of shorts that pads are built into.

747. And it makes it real easy.

748. So let's put the shorts on him. Put the shorts on him.

749. - Yeah.

750. - And here we go. - There you go, baby. Good.

751. - All right, slide them on up. Yeah.

752. - Now step in front of this

753. so we can see what your body look like.

754. - Get yo ass around here.

755. - There we go, look at that.

756. - Uh-oh. Okay.

757. So next we're gonna have to do the bra.

758. Like we talked about, it's all about proportion.

759. So he has a big shoulder, a big chest,

760. so we give him big hips and butt,

761. and a big breast to make that waist look as small as we can.

762. - There we go. - That's pretty good.

763. You did so good. - That's good. That's good.

764. - Wanna do a little more?

765. - Gotta put this dress on. Over her head, girl.

766. - Some of you girls know about that.

767. Pull, baby, pull.

768. - Yeah!

769. - We have enjoyed having your time.

770. Love you guys. Thank you, Brian.

771. - Thank you. - You look amazing.

772. - Come on, let's sashay. - Let's go, girls.

773. - Sashay. - Sashay.

774. - Go, go, go.

775. - Get it, girls, get it, girls.

776. Hey! Get it, girls! Get it, girls!

777. - Coming up...

778. - What could a woman learn from a drag queen?

779. - Don't be afraid to try new and different things.

780. - Do whatever makes you happy,

781. because, you know, everyone else.

782. - Welcome back to a special edition of RuPaul's Drag Con.

783. - Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome!

784. My name is Monique Heart, the Heart of season 10,

785. and this segment is called Painted for Filth, honey,

786. or as I like to call it, painted for the good seats,

787. painted for the cheap seats, and painted for the VIP, okay?

788. Bringing out first my dear sister.

789. You've seen her probably in a pageant.

790. She probably beat you with her Danny Glover illusion.

791. Ms. Asia O'Hara.

792. - Hey.

793. - Bringing out our other sister.

794. You probably follow her on social media—

795. hit unfollow, then follow me—

796. Ms. Aquaria.

797. - Hi, guys.

798. Ooh! Hi.

799. - Asia, would you go ahead and give them a little background

800. of how you fell in love with makeup?

801. - Sure. Well, drag was the first time I ever saw makeup

802. or was interested in makeup,

803. and then I became a Chanel makeup artist.

804. And day-in and day-out in Dallas

805. I was putting rouge on 70-year-old white women,

806. and now I am a 70-year-old white woman.

807. So here we are.

808. - Stunning, right? She looks good.

809. Ms. Aquaria, go ahead and tell us

810. how you fell in love with makeup.

811. - So back in the day,

812. I used to, when I was in, like, seventh grade,

813. do makeup at home and take pictures on my webcam.

814. My parents were very liberal, all right?

815. They named me Aquaria.

816. But, yeah, so I would take pictures on my webcam,

817. and because I was good at computers,

818. I would Photoshop my eyebrows in different places,

819. and the next time I would do my makeup I would apply that.

820. So through trial-and-error, I got here.

821. - Boom. - Nice.

822. - And she looks good, she looks good.

823. Well, just a little background about myself.

824. I got started in makeup when I started drag.

825. One of my friends said, look,

826. instead of staying up late at night off,

827. paint your face.

828. And, bitch, it worked, okay?

829. She looks stunning, right?

830. - And sometimes you can do both.

831. - At the same time.

832. - Huh?

833. Get some hand sanitizer, you know,

834. make sure you, you know, yum, yum, yum.

835. All right, do we have any questions out there

836. about makeup or anything?

837. Hello, gorgeous. - Hi, I have one.

838. What could a woman like me learn from a drag queen?

839. - Don't be afraid to try new and different things.

840. If it's a Saturday night and you're not going anywhere,

841. try a different eye or try a different color

842. or try a different lipstick.

843. So try new things.

844. - I think what we all need to take

845. from makeup being such a creative thing

846. is that there really is no rules.

847. Do whatever makes you happy,

848. and if you look like a clown on the street but you feel great,

849. that's what's most important,

850. because, you know, everyone else.

851. - I agree.

852. - Make some noise for Ms. Bri.

853. Now, ladies and gentlemen,

854. I am going to demonstrate the shimmer highlight,

855. one of the trending trends—

856. Yeah, I said that right.

857. - Okay. - To make sure

858. you don't have a dry, you know, cake-dusty face.

859. Now, what a lot of people are doing, ladies and gentlemen,

860. is they're just putting on their shimmer highlight

861. and they're going, why isn't it giving me

862. the ooh-ah-ah sensation?

863. - Are you wearing foundation?

864. Yeah, you are. Okay, good.

865. Hee hee hee hee hee.

866. - Okay.

867. You wanna dip your product. One, two, three.

868. Knock, one, two.

869. And then right here on the high point of his cheek,

870. that's where you want to apply your product.

871. One, two, three. And ladies and gentlemen,

872. we call this a sickening shimmer glow.

873. From side to side—boom, boom.

874. - Ahh.

875. - Asia, go ahead and show us how to put on a lash.

876. - Okay. I'm just gonna take this one off.

877. I hope I can get this back symmetrical.

878. - Come on, Patti LaBelle.

879. - When I apply my lash glue,

880. on the outer end of my lash

881. I put the glue on the top of the lash.

882. - While she's working on that,

883. I'm gonna give you a quick little instruction

884. on how to achieve a gorgeous red glitter lip.

885. Using the glue that you would use for your eyelashes,

886. I'm gonna just apply it with the back of a brush to my lips.

887. Keep it thin, because otherwise it's gonna be too cakey.

888. - And while she's doing that,

889. my secret weapon with lashes is a blow-dryer.

890. Whenever I see it hit where I want it to,

891. I just hold the blow-dryer there.

892. - And today I've got a holographic pink glitter,

893. and I'm just gonna pat that on.

894. - And then you're gonna have

895. a little bit of disconnect under that.

896. Just fill that in with your black liner,

897. and if you feel like somebody's trying to spook your lash,

898. you know, just when you're in their face,

899. you just always kinda give them different angles or whatever.

900. Don't sit still and they won't be able to clock it.

901. - And I am all good and glittered up.

902. - We wanna say thank you so much

903. for coming on out to Drag Con on tonight.

904. - Yeah.

905. - Bye, guys.

906. - Hello!

907. - Hi! - Oh, my goodness.

908. - Thank you guys so much for being here.

909. This is such a pleasure. We're so excited, am I right?

910. - I am gagging. - Oh, my gosh.

911. - I'm just here for a check, but whatever.

912. - We are Wigs Anonymous today, and our hope and goal

913. is to maybe turn your wig woes into wig wows.

914. - She's corny. You can say it. She's corny.

915. - I know. I'm from Indiana. We love corn.

916. - We are here to make your wig life better.

917. Now, who the are you?

918. - My name is Blair St. Clair, and I'm a wigaholic.

919. - Okay. My name is Miz Cracker, and I am... a wigaholic.

920. - I am The Vixen,

921. and I'm a wigaholic.

922. - You wouldn't know by looking at you.

923. - Ooh.

924. - Imma get you later, bitch.

925. - She's dry. She's thirsty.

926. She needs a little extra help.

927. - This is her moment.

928. - I've come to terms with the fact

929. that I'm not a natural blonde.

930. - Oh.

931. Not everyone's able, you know what I'm saying?

932. - you, bitch.

933. - Oh, really?

934. - So— - But you know what?

935. - I am ready to turn my wig woes into wig—

936. what'd you say? Wows.

937. - There we go.

938. - So who here has maybe

939. ever thought about wearing a wig before?

940. Oh, you've thought about it. Okay.

941. - Who's wearing a wig right now?

942. - Lies. - Really?

943. - I see a few liars.

944. - Come on, come on, you can tell the truth.

945. - I actually smell a merkin.

946. - Oh, you know what?

947. I'm African-A'Merkin, so—

948. - Oh, oh, that's what it is, okay.

949. - All right, so we have some desire for wig knowledge,

950. and what we have to do is let them know why we're experts.

951. What connects you to hair, okay?

952. - Well, girl, to become an expert,

953. you have to go through some things.

954. - And I have been through— all right, y'all picture this.

955. So I'm on stage, right?

956. Sickening, big hair, ready to perform, right?

957. - So different than this.

958. - Oh. - Ooh.

959. - Don't try me. I take one turn,

960. my hair, like a Frisbee...

961. Onto the other side of the stage.

962. That is true betrayal right there.

963. - Right, absolutely.

964. And what about you, Blair St. Hair?

965. - Well, I do declare that, you know,

966. let me take you back to about maybe three years ago

967. when I was six years old. - Yes.

968. - Not only did I discover as a little gay boy

969. that my t-shirt was a gown, but it could also be a wig.

970. And that hair can be any style.

971. It can be an updo, a downdo.

972. For me, it was all the 'dos and a gown.

973. - But the great moment

974. is that she's still wearing that same t-shirt,

975. just with a few sequins, right now.

976. She's lovely. It's just great.

977. We wanna get you guys involved a little bit.

978. - Yeah. - So do you have any questions?

979. - I just wondered if you guys had any advice

980. for, like, baby queens, with wigs.

981. - Just do one or two things, any things,

982. between taking them out of the bag

983. and putting them on your head.

984. - Yeah. You can't just— - There's no—

985. - Don't buy it and put it on your head.

986. - Right. - Okay.

987. - Definitely seek out

988. any kind of extra knowledge or education you can get.

989. - Listen to the old queens.

990. I always go to Miz Cracker,

991. because, you know, she's up in age—

992. - I saw that coming.

993. - And so, you know, you can always get

994. really good advice from the elderly.

995. And so you take that, and you learn something.

996. That's what I would say.

997. - Thank you. - Thank you.

998. - So the first thing we want to do,

999. let 'em know, Blair.

1000. Tell them where we start. - Yeah, okay.

1001. So what I've done with this wig

1002. is I've tried to kind of conceal

1003. some of those square shapes along the hairline.

1004. Hairlines are what can look really masculine

1005. or go really femu—feminine. Femunine.

1006. So what I've actually done— I'm gonna set this here softly.

1007. - Stick it on there.

1008. - Harder. - There we go.

1009. - Yeah, there we go. - So what I've kind of done

1010. with this front part of the wig

1011. is I have done all this with teasing.

1012. So I'm just kind of brushing this down a little bit as I go.

1013. And then after I have all this tease put in with all this hair,

1014. I'm just gonna smooth it out.

1015. - The next part of this

1016. is gonna be about attaching it to his melon.

1017. When you're preparing to put a wig on someone's head,

1018. it's just like preparing for a bank robbery.

1019. All you need is some duct tape and some stockings.

1020. Here we go. So now I'm gonna take this duct tape.

1021. - Whoo!

1022. - This is great.

1023. - Is that gonna hurt when it comes off?

1024. - Um... no.

1025. - Like this, all right?

1026. And now we can control his facial expressions.

1027. All right, no, I'm just kidding.

1028. Now we're gonna take this

1029. and we are attaching it to his head.

1030. - Nice and tight there.

1031. - Okay. I'm gonna have you put

1032. both your fingers up like this,

1033. right up against your forehead.

1034. And when I pull this wig over the top of your head,

1035. just kind of latch on, okay?

1036. - All right, it's happening.

1037. - There we go.

1038. - It's like Frankenstein.

1039. - Oh, my goodness, hello.

1040. - Oh, my gosh.

1041. - Thank you so much.

1042. - So, ladies— - Sir, I'll see you after the—

1043. - I do have, actually,

1044. like one more thing to kind of, like, tell you.

1045. - So because you guys have been such a great audience...

1046. - Have a seat.

1047. - We kind of wanna help you guys out a little bit

1048. and share a little something with you guys.

1049. We have hair for the audience today.

1050. - Bam. - Yes.

1051. - You get a wig and you get a wig and you get a wig!

1052. - Who wants a wig?

1053. - Thank you guys so much.

1054. - Thank you, guys. Thanks for coming today.

1055. - Love you guys. Thank you.

1056. - Thank you so much.

1057. - Coming up...

1058. Category is Hats Incredible.

1059. - Wow. - Ooh, wow.

1060. - She looks like if Carmen Sandiego

1061. was much easier to find.

1062. - Category is Hats Incredible.

1063. - Up first, Kameron Michaels.

1064. - She's so spacey.

1065. She's got a spinning headache.

1066. - My headpiece is inspired by Lady Gaga,

1067. and it's one of my favorite things that I own.

1068. I am embracing my muscle queen realness

1069. because I like to model myself after comic book girls,

1070. and they have muscles.

1071. - She's Saturn on a secret.

1072. - Monét X Change. Ooh.

1073. - Sister X Change on the main stage.

1074. - Yes, honey, somebody say "amen."

1075. - Amen. - Yes.

1076. - She's not the preacher's wife,

1077. she's the freakin' deacon.

1078. - Ahh.

1079. - So this hat, like, I have taken the children to church,

1080. I have given you Easter Sunday realness.

1081. The kind of lady that wears my hat,

1082. she does not take the bus to church.

1083. She gets her an Uber executive, honey.

1084. I feel great, I feel powerful, I feel like the preacher's wife.

1085. - That's the new New Testament.

1086. - That's right.

1087. - Ooh, it looks like her basket is full.

1088. - Where can I make a donation?

1089. - You better work, sayeth the Lord.

1090. - Eureka.

1091. - What time is it, hounds-two-thirty?

1092. - She looks like if Carmen Sandiego

1093. was much easier to find.

1094. - I am serving you Samurai warrior realness, honey,

1095. while still being sexy and proportionized.

1096. I know my curves are right, this booty looks tight,

1097. and this cape is fanning in the wind, honey.

1098. I am twirlin', baby.

1099. - She's a caped cru-slayer.

1100. - Aquaria.

1101. - Eh, what's up, Klaus?

1102. - Diana Copperfield.

1103. - Yes!

1104. - There is no hat more incredible

1105. than a magician's hat,

1106. so I am giving you full Houdini realness.

1107. Aquaria's a very gender-fluid character in drag,

1108. so I'm giving you a little bit more of the boy side of Aquaria.

1109. This magician is ready for showtime,

1110. and I am giving you every little last bit of razzle-dazzle

1111. that I've got in my sleeve.

1112. - If you're gonna be a top hat, be a power top hat.

1113. - Yes.

1114. - Monique Heart.

1115. - I'm seeing spots.

1116. - So that's where my wrapping paper went.

1117. - This hat and this garment

1118. is serving first lady of the RuPaul church, honey,

1119. and I'm sitting on the first row looking opulent.

1120. The top is giving you San Tropez on a yacht,

1121. and the bottom, bitch, these legs, honey, and this side meat?

1122. Get into it.

1123. The bitch looks great.

1124. - What a fascinator choice.

1125. - Asia O'Hara.

1126. - Wow. - Oh, wow.

1127. - Guys, I'm a little afraid

1128. that Asia might be getting a big head.

1129. - My hat is just dramatically over the top.

1130. I decided to be a dandelion.

1131. Make a wish on me.

1132. I'm moving and my dandelion is blowing in the wind.

1133. It's got that kind of easy, breezy, beautiful

1134. "Drag Race" girl flair to it.

1135. - I mean, it's hypnotic, watching them move.

1136. - It's amazing.

1137. - Where's my Claritin?

1138. My allergies are acting up.

1139. - We ah-ah-choose you.

1140. - Miz Cracker.

1141. - Starring in "My Hair Lady."

1142. - "My Fair Lady" is my mother's favorite movie,

1143. and I identify with Eliza Doolittle:

1144. hottie, cheeky, happy.

1145. This is my hair. I don't wear hats.

1146. This took me over 12 hours to make.

1147. - Does the carpet match the hat, or...

1148. - That's called hat hair, right?

1149. - She's got hat head, yeah.

1150. - Total hat hair.

1151. - I do declare, it's Blair St. Clair.

1152. - For whom the Southern belle tolls.

1153. - My hat is inspired by the Kentucky Derby

1154. and "Hello, Dolly," and old Broadway musicals.

1155. So when I was making the hat,

1156. I really wanted it to be grand and big,

1157. but also have an elegant flair to it.

1158. - Does anybody have a mint julep?

1159. - She's getting the vapors.

1160. - Uh-huh.

1161. - Shh.

1162. - The Vixen.

1163. Ladies and gentlemen, Hattie McDaniels.

1164. - Excuse me, could you remove your hat, please?

1165. - My hat is a flappy, classic black-and-white beach hat,

1166. but the gag is my entire dress

1167. is flappy, classic black-and-white beach hats.

1168. I am giving you couture 3D avant garde

1169. with a classic twist.

1170. I made this myself, and I love it.

1171. - What's black and white and ass all over?

1172. - Hat's all, folks.

1173. - Welcome, ladies.

1174. Based on your runway presentations,

1175. your Drag Con panels,

1176. plus feedback from the Drag Con audience,

1177. I've made some decisions.

1178. Coming up...

1179. - But it felt so in the moment.

1180. - I'm just so proud of you tonight.

1181. - You also are the winner

1182. of the "turn a Carson Kressley blazer

1183. into an outfit" competition.

1184. - Welcome, ladies.

1185. I've made some decisions.

1186. Kameron Michaels, Monét X Change, Eureka,

1187. you are the top three of the week.

1188. Miz Cracker, Blair St. Clair, The Vixen,

1189. you are the bottom three of the week.

1190. Aquaria, Monique Heart, Asia O'Hara, you are safe.

1191. Asia, good work this week.

1192. - Thank you so much.

1193. - You may leave the stage.

1194. Now it's time for the judges' critiques,

1195. starting with Kameron Michaels.

1196. - I want to say what are we doing, girls?

1197. - Proportionizing! - Thank you.

1198. I just felt really jealous. I needed to do it.

1199. Kameron, tonight on the runway

1200. you did a spacey fascinator moment,

1201. and I thought it was fun and different.

1202. - The panel on the whole,

1203. it was just a great mix of information and entertainment.

1204. - You're on that stage with some pretty funny queens, okay?

1205. - I am. - Compared to their funny,

1206. it did feel like a little after-school special.

1207. - But it was nice to see you come through.

1208. You've been very reclusive, and that's kind of a problem

1209. that I've been having with you.

1210. So my challenge for you

1211. is to keep pushing yourself further and further

1212. to show us your personality.

1213. It was a joy. - Thank you.

1214. - Let the church say "amen."

1215. It's Monét X Change

1216. serving some Sheryl Lee Ralph this evening.

1217. - So, Monét, you've been struggling a little bit.

1218. - Yes. - And tonight,

1219. I'm not gonna lie.

1220. I love it.

1221. Your attitude, your delivery.

1222. - You had an amazing performance.

1223. You're so funny and so quick.

1224. - I'm just so proud of you tonight.

1225. - You also are the winner

1226. of the "Turn a Carson Kressley blazer

1227. into an outfit" competition.

1228. - Thank you, Monét. - Thank you, Ru.

1229. - Up next, Eureka.

1230. - I really, really liked this graphic, kind of bold look.

1231. It looks stunning on you.

1232. I wanna know is that a one-piece or are those gloves?

1233. - Oh, it's all attached.

1234. - Now I love it even more.

1235. - In the Drag Con panel, you were the moderator.

1236. You were great with the audience.

1237. - You were setting the tone,

1238. and I thought you did such a great job.

1239. - I'm gonna be saying "proportionizing"

1240. to myself in the mirror for weeks.

1241. You have the skill that when you're zinging people,

1242. making it seem funny and not mean.

1243. - Eureka was the favorite from the audience exit polls.

1244. Thank you, Eureka. - Thank you.

1245. - Up next, Miz Cracker.

1246. - The look is so good, I just loved it.

1247. It's a hair hat. It's why I love you.

1248. - The panel didn't have a lot of information.

1249. As a woman who has bought Party City wigs

1250. many times in my life,

1251. I would love to know how to make those look good.

1252. Unfortunately, I still don't know.

1253. - You guys really didn't tell us anything about hair.

1254. And you were trying to be shady. I live for shade.

1255. But in order for shade to land, it needs to be funny.

1256. A few of them were funny,

1257. but I felt a lot of the things that you were saying were mean,

1258. especially to Blair.

1259. She seems like the sweetest little lollipop.

1260. - I like her so much, so not getting across

1261. that those were not actual digs is my biggest setback, I think.

1262. - Or as a shocking alternative, they could have been funny.

1263. - I declare, Blair St. Clair.

1264. - Tonight it's very sweet Southern belle.

1265. You're breathtaking.

1266. In the Drag Con panel, you were nonexistent,

1267. and every time you did say something,

1268. it was matter-of-fact.

1269. - Like show me something that's not just cute.

1270. It's like you're a dessert on the menu,

1271. and I keep looking at you and thinking, like,

1272. maybe that's just too sweet for tonight, I don't know.

1273. - I've come from some, like, really dark moments in my life,

1274. and I want to lighten them up and become more positive.

1275. I urge to find daintiness,

1276. because I feel dirty at times.

1277. Um...

1278. My first sexual experience,

1279. I was raped at a college party.

1280. And from that, I've looked to find pretty things.

1281. Something I need to get over,

1282. but I've tried to turn positive the best I can.

1283. - Thank you for being so candid with us.

1284. We love you, Blair, and we are family,

1285. and I'm actually very proud of you for being so vulnerable.

1286. - I'm very shaken,

1287. and I can't wait to find that mother.

1288. - Thank you. - No, I love you.

1289. - Blair, are you okay?

1290. All right.

1291. Up next, The Vixen.

1292. - This is such a great interpretation

1293. of the challenge and the theme.

1294. I think it's absolutely stunning.

1295. - It's really fun to have a floppy hat,

1296. but we can't see your face.

1297. In the Drag Con panel, though you had some moments,

1298. it was just, in Yiddish, a mishegoss.

1299. And some of your cuts were kind of deep, too.

1300. - We do get along.

1301. This is our third time working together,

1302. and the first two times we were tops.

1303. We were very confident,

1304. and being like we're fine, we don't need a moderator.

1305. - I think you guys

1306. actually would have benefited from a moderator.

1307. I wish that we could have gotten some real information out of it.

1308. That was the real issue.

1309. Thank you, ladies.

1310. I think we've heard enough.

1311. While you untuck backstage,

1312. the judges and I will deliberate.

1313. All right, just between us squirrel-friends,

1314. what do you think? Kameron Michaels.

1315. - On the runway,

1316. she did a little different look with the hat concept,

1317. and I loved it, because she did think out of the box.

1318. - I found her runway look to be a little simplistic.

1319. If you took away the galaxy head,

1320. it looks very similar

1321. to her look that she had during the panel,

1322. which was just a swimsuit with heels.

1323. - I was so excited to see some personality from her.

1324. Now I want her to give me different looks.

1325. I mean, that's it.

1326. - Monét X Change.

1327. - She was very funny during the panel,

1328. had great timing, had a very appealing self-confidence.

1329. - You know when you, like, see something in the store

1330. and you're like, I love it. I have to have it.

1331. And you bring it home, you put it in your closet,

1332. but you keep the tag on it because you might return it?

1333. - Uh-huh. - Uh-huh, well, tonight

1334. I'm pulling the tags off Monét X Change.

1335. - You're not gonna exchange her?

1336. - No, she's staying in my closet.

1337. - Eureka. She's come back with a vengeance.

1338. - My God, has she found her groove.

1339. - At the panel, I thought she was fantastic.

1340. - Proportionizing!

1341. - She's naturally funny and very charismatic.

1342. - And she absolutely commands a room.

1343. Your eyes want to go to her, you want to watch her,

1344. and you want to hear what she has to say.

1345. She's definitely a contender.

1346. - Miz Cracker.

1347. - I loved her runway look.

1348. I thought it was absolutely stunning.

1349. - There's so much polish and so much good.

1350. It was just a really bad week.

1351. - I was not impressed with Miz Cracker

1352. during the panel whatsoever.

1353. - I could see that she was very funny,

1354. but it just wasn't landing today

1355. and she just wasn't making the adjustments.

1356. - Let's move on to Blair St. Clair.

1357. - Well, here's the difference with Blair.

1358. Miz Cracker swung and she missed, and she missed hard.

1359. Blair didn't even pick up the bat.

1360. She was totally bulldozed over by the other two.

1361. - You know, we've laid a lot of blame

1362. on the other two queens sort of zinging at her,

1363. but I think she should take some of the responsibility, too.

1364. - Uh-huh.

1365. - I don't know if she's fully baked yet

1366. when it comes to her drag.

1367. - My heart goes out to her.

1368. We've all had trauma in our backgrounds,

1369. and the first response to that

1370. is to put rainbows on everything,

1371. and maybe those feelings will go away.

1372. We know that that doesn't work.

1373. Eventually we have to walk through that.

1374. I think she's attempting to walk through that fear

1375. and that pain to get to the other side.

1376. The Vixen.

1377. - She had a few zingers that she landed.

1378. She had a lot that didn't land.

1379. She's just as much to blame

1380. as the rest of them for it going awry.

1381. Tonight on the runway her hat look was different.

1382. - There's always something just a little unpolished

1383. about what she's doing.

1384. - Because you put her up next to Cracker, Cracker wins that look.

1385. - Oh, yeah. Oh, absolutely.

1386. - Way better runway. - All right.

1387. [clap, clap] Silence.

1388. I have made my decision.

1389. Bring back my girls.

1390. Welcome back, ladies.

1391. I have made some decisions.

1392. Eureka, I have one word for you:

1393. Proportionize.

1394. Oh, and I have another word for you.

1395. Con-drag-ulations.

1396. You are the winner of this week's challenge.

1397. You've won a four-night stay for two and spa treatments

1398. at the Saguaro Palm Springs.

1399. - Yes! Yay, thank you.

1400. - You may join the other girls.

1401. - Oh, my God.

1402. I'm the first girl to win two in a row, bitch.

1403. Yay!

1404. - Kameron Michaels, Monét X Change,

1405. you are both safe.

1406. You may join the other girls.

1407. Blair St. Clair,

1408. on the wig panel, we had trouble finding your part.

1409. The Vixen, your wig flips were a bit of a flop.

1410. Miz Cracker, your chemistry on the wig panel

1411. was synthetic.

1412. Miz Cracker...

1413. you're safe.

1414. You may join the other girls.

1415. Blair, Vixen, I'm sorry, my dears,

1416. but you are up for elimination.

1417. - I hate the fact I have to lip-sync against The Vixen.

1418. I really do love her a lot.

1419. It's also a competition, though.

1420. You have to lip-sync against somebody.

1421. - Two queens stand before me.

1422. Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me

1423. and save yourself from elimination.

1424. The time has come...

1425. for you to lip-sync...

1426. for your life.

1427. I love Blair,

1428. but it is time to battle, and I am not going home.

1429. - Good luck,

1430. and don't it up.

1431. Ow!

1432. - Yeah!

1433. - Come on, girl!

1434. - Ladies, I've made my decision.

1435. - The Vixen, shantay, you stay.

1436. Thank you for believing in me.

1437. - You may join the other girls.

1438. Blair St. Clair, I do declare.

1439. Consider this your coming out party.

1440. - And I want the world to know

1441. this is a declaration of independence from the past.

1442. Now sashay away.

1443. - From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much.

1444. - We love you, Blair.

1445. - I do declare, I am the Blair St. Clair

1446. and I'm comin' out.

1447. I'm really glad I got to share my story,

1448. and I hope that maybe someone can relate somewhere.

1449. I think I'm leaving a stronger person,

1450. and I wish I could show America even more of who I am.

1451. But I hope that what I left behind made a mark.

1452. This means the world to me,

1453. and I promise you, you haven't seen the last of me.

1454. - Con-drag-ulations, ladies,

1455. and remember, if you can't love yourself,

1456. how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?

1457. Can I get an "amen" up in here?

1458. - Amen! - Amen!

1459. - All right, now let the music play.

1460. - Next time on "RuPaul's Drag Race"...

1461. - We're playing the Snatch Game.

1462. - We've got company.

1463. - Oh!

1464. - Oh, bitch.

1465. - You just completely embodied her.

1466. - When the focus wasn't on you, I kept going back to you anyway.

1467. - I have one final question.

1468. Who deserves to go home tonight and why?

1469. - Ooh!
