Copy !req

Ginger Minj!

89. Okay, ladies and gentlemen.
Copy !req
90. Momma's got to bring it home.
Copy !req
91. Here we go!
Copy !req
92. Ginger Minj, you just
flooded my basement.
Copy !req
93. Now Ginger, while you
catch your breath,
Copy !req
94. let's talk to the judges.
Copy !req
95. Michelle Visage,
what'd you think?
Copy !req
96. Very very Patti LaBelle,
and oh she better do.
Copy !req
97. Very proud of you Ginger Minj.
Copy !req
98. Thank you.
Copy !req
99. You have been
an entertainer
Copy !req
100. from episode one to today,
Copy !req
101. and that's how
you got your spot here.
Copy !req
102. Congratulations, honey.
Copy !req
103. Well, praise the Lord
and hallelu-yer.
Copy !req
104. I still love the Minj!
Copy !req
105. Well, thank you, judges.
Copy !req
106. Now Ginger, tonight
you took us to church,
Copy !req
107. but all season long
Copy !req
108. you've been taking us
on one wild ride.
Copy !req
109. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
110. Hi fellas.
Copy !req
111. I like to describe myself
as a glamour toad.
Copy !req
112. She always wants to look
neat, petite and ready to eat.
Copy !req
113. I'm low sugar.
Copy !req
114. She can give you comedy,
and glamour, and singing,
Copy !req
115. and acting
Copy !req
116. and, I mean,
she's a quadruple threat.
Copy !req
117. This is America:
Land of the free,
Copy !req
118. home of the fat people.
Copy !req
119. And if we're going to
supersize our French fries,
Copy !req
120. why can't we at least supersize
our next drag superstar.
Copy !req
121. So Ginger, in Untucked,
Copy !req
122. you and the
Bitter Old Lady Brigade
Copy !req
123. were throwing a lot of shade
at the younger girls.
Copy !req
124. Do you regret that?
Copy !req
125. Well, let me say,
I'm a size 22,
Copy !req
126. so no matter which way
the light hits me
Copy !req
127. I'm going to throw shade
in one direction or another.
Copy !req
128. But in all seriousness,
you know,
Copy !req
129. when I was growing up,
I came from
Copy !req
130. a very Southern, very practical
church-going family,
Copy !req
131. so I was never really
encouraged to speak my mind
Copy !req
132. or ask questions.
Copy !req
133. Drag gave me my voice,
so I'm finally not afraid
Copy !req
134. to ask questions
and say what I feel.
Copy !req
135. Now, I know, girl,
that I do come off
Copy !req
136. a little bit abrasive sometimes,
Copy !req
137. but it all comes from
a place of love.
Copy !req
138. That's it.
Copy !req
139. Alright, alright.
Copy !req
140. Good.
Copy !req
141. Okay, so I'll tell you what,
Copy !req
142. we're going to take some
questions from your fans.
Copy !req
143. Hi.
Copy !req
144. Celeste from Richmond
wants to know:
Copy !req
145. "Ginger, is it time for
a big girl to win?"
Copy !req
146. Well, it is time for
a big girl to win,
Copy !req
147. but I don't want to win
because I'm big.
Copy !req
148. I want to win because
I came in with guns a blazing,
Copy !req
149. and I killed the competition.
Copy !req
150. Alright, so Ginger,
Copy !req
151. you've got a lot of people
rooting for you.
Copy !req
152. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
153. Hi Ginger, this is your sister.
Copy !req
154. I've always known
you are a star.
Copy !req
155. I hope America sees what the
family has always seen in you.
Copy !req
156. Hi, I'm John Waters,
and I'm here for Ginger Minj.
Copy !req
157. Congratulations on
getting to the finals
Copy !req
158. on Ru Paul's Drag Race.
Copy !req
159. I'm rooting for you,
and so is Edith Massey
Copy !req
160. from beyond the grave.
Copy !req
161. Hi Ginger, it's mom.
Copy !req
162. I'm so proud of you.
Copy !req
163. I love watching you perform.
Copy !req
164. I love you so much,
and congratulations.
Copy !req
165. Bye.
Copy !req
166. Hey Ginger, this is dad.
Copy !req
167. You know I've always
been proud of you,
Copy !req
168. and I'm proud
that you're my son,
Copy !req
169. and I'll always try
to be there for you,
Copy !req
170. and I know sometimes
I've failed at that
Copy !req
171. but, you know,
I'm a work in progress.
Copy !req
172. For you to say that
I don't approve of you
Copy !req
173. makes me feel like
I failed as a father.
Copy !req
174. There's no way that
I don't approve of you.
Copy !req
175. Hopefully tonight we can
start two new chapters:
Copy !req
176. One, you winning everything
and going on to
Copy !req
177. your fame and fortune,
Copy !req
178. something that
you've worked...
Copy !req
179. you've worked
very hard for...
Copy !req
180. and hopefully we can start
another chapter, you and I,
Copy !req
181. and we can move on
and bond together
Copy !req
182. from here forward.
Copy !req
183. Sorry.
Copy !req
184. Nobody knows
how hard he's worked.
Copy !req
185. He's very special.
Copy !req
186. Good luck tonight.
Copy !req
187. I'm so proud of you,
Copy !req
188. and we'll definitely
be watching.
Copy !req
189. What does it feel like
to hear your father
Copy !req
190. say those words?
Copy !req
191. Other than my mom,
I never felt loved growing up,
Copy !req
192. and I hope that this does lead
to not only a reconciliation
Copy !req
193. but relationship
that I never had.
Copy !req
194. And I hope he feels
bad enough to buy me
Copy !req
195. a new set of bottom lashes
'cause these were custom.
Copy !req
196. So, what would it mean
to you to become
Copy !req
197. America's next drag superstar?
Copy !req
198. Oh god...
Copy !req
199. Who doesn't want to be
part of that legacy?
Copy !req
200. I mean, you created something
that's so special for all of us,
Copy !req
201. and to be even be
considered to be
Copy !req
202. part of that is overwhelming.
Copy !req
203. Ginger, you are my kind of
plus size queen because
Copy !req
204. you've got a big talent,
a big heart
Copy !req
205. and a big future ahead of you.
Copy !req
206. I love you, Ginger.
Copy !req
207. I love you too.
Copy !req
208. We all love the Minj!
Copy !req
209. If you're Team Ginger,
Copy !req
210. Tweet it now.
Copy !req
211. Coming up...
Copy !req
212. Pearl and Violet Chachki
take the stage.
Copy !req
213. Welcome back
to the grand finale
Copy !req
214. of Ru Paul's Drag Race.
Copy !req
215. The final face-off between our
top three queens continues.
Copy !req
216. Up next, she started out
as a sleeping beauty,
Copy !req
217. but will her fairytale
end with a crown?
Copy !req
218. Please welcome everybody's
favourite sleepwalker...
Copy !req
219. Pearl!
Copy !req
220. ♪ Ah-ah
Copy !req
221. Ah.
Copy !req
222. Good morning, Pearl.
Copy !req
223. Good morn-ting.
Copy !req
224. It's time to hear
from the judges.
Copy !req
225. Michelle Visage,
what do you have to say?
Copy !req
226. You came into
this competition,
Copy !req
227. you had a bit of an attitude,
but as time went on,
Copy !req
228. you became lovable,
you became awake,
Copy !req
229. and you earned your
spot here in the final.
Copy !req
230. We were asking you
to come out of your shell...
Copy !req
231. Oh, look at you.
Copy !req
232. Don't you love a good—
Copy !req
233. Like a pearl.
Copy !req
234. Pearl.
Copy !req
235. Shell.
Copy !req
236. I think I get it.
Copy !req
237. I think that the
audience has spoken,
Copy !req
238. and the people
like you, Pearl.
Copy !req
239. They really like you!
Copy !req
240. Madame, congratulations.
Copy !req
241. So Pearl, you've come
a long way, baby.
Copy !req
242. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
243. What's up?
Copy !req
244. I would describe Pearl
as some kind of
Copy !req
245. robotic Stepford Wife bitch.
Copy !req
246. I've been drawing Pearl
since I was like 10,
Copy !req
247. and then one day
just painted her on me.
Copy !req
248. You've been sleepwalking.
Copy !req
249. Wake up, Pearl.
Copy !req
250. Wake up.
Copy !req
251. You kind of like told me
I have no personality.
Copy !req
252. Well, I'm hoping it will
light a fire under your ass.
Copy !req
253. Do I have
something on my face?
Copy !req
254. Ah!
Copy !req
255. I had a rough
childhood, okay?
Copy !req
256. I wasn't watching
Batman and Robin.
Copy !req
257. Someone set
their alarm clock
Copy !req
258. and finally woke up.
Copy !req
259. Well, la di da.
Copy !req
260. I think I figured out
you're a weirdo.
Copy !req
261. Oh yeah.
Copy !req
262. Boy oh boy, has there
been a transformation in you.
Copy !req
263. At this point, there's nothing
that could break my spirit.
Copy !req
264. Atta girl, Pearl.
Copy !req
265. Okay, so Pearl,
what made you wake up?
Copy !req
266. You said something
a long time ago,
Copy !req
267. it was something like,
Copy !req
268. "The fear of looking stupid
is really holding you back."
Copy !req
269. And, yeah, I mean,
I'm not a quitter,
Copy !req
270. and I wasn't about to
quit on Drag Race.
Copy !req
271. Good, I'm glad you didn't.
Copy !req
272. Now, have you heard of
this conspiracy theory
Copy !req
273. called The Curse of Pearl,
Copy !req
274. where any queen who crosses you
immediately goes home.
Copy !req
275. Yeah, it's been brought up.
Copy !req
276. You didn't go home though.
Copy !req
277. Ah, bitch...
Copy !req
278. See, the thing is
I actually— I didn't cross you,
Copy !req
279. I almost just threw
your ass out of the door.
Copy !req
280. Take a look at this.
Copy !req
281. Which queen has
least impressed you.
Copy !req
282. I'd have to say Pearl.
Copy !req
283. Sasha Belle, sashay away.
Copy !req
284. I noticed this black
trim around her chin.
Copy !req
285. I'm thinking,
'What the hell is that?'
Copy !req
286. Jasmine, girl, sashay away.
Copy !req
287. There's this part of
Pearl that's like too cool
Copy !req
288. for season seven.
Copy !req
289. Sashay away.
Copy !req
290. I can forgive her...
Copy !req
291. but I'll never forget.
Copy !req
292. Alright, so we have some
questions from some fans.
Copy !req
293. Oh.
Copy !req
294. Oh, look who's here,
it's Alaska!
Copy !req
295. Hiiiiii.
Copy !req
296. Sup?
Copy !req
297. Xavier from California
wants to know...
Copy !req
298. "Pearl, is it just me,
or does everybody
Copy !req
299. want to you?"
Copy !req
300. I'm single... single.
Copy !req
301. No, but Pearl, for real,
how do you deal with
Copy !req
302. all the attention you got?
Copy !req
303. Really I want people to
like me because I'm talented,
Copy !req
304. I'm unique,
I have nerve
Copy !req
305. and I have, you know, charisma,
but not in that order.
Copy !req
306. But thank you.
Copy !req
307. Now Pearl, you have
a lot of people in your corner.
Copy !req
308. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
309. I've got something on my face,
Copy !req
310. and it's a big smile of love,
pride and joy
Copy !req
311. for my number one grandson.
Copy !req
312. Love you, Matty...
from your grandma.
Copy !req
313. Hey Pearl!
Copy !req
314. family
sending you love.
Copy !req
315. You've slayed all season, girl.
Copy !req
316. You've been killing it,
and we love you.
Copy !req
317. C'mon Chinstrap!
Copy !req
318. We're so proud of you!
Copy !req
319. So proud!
Copy !req
320. We wish you all
the luck in the world.
Copy !req
321. We love you.
Copy !req
322. Love you so much.
Copy !req
323. Love you.
Copy !req
324. Bye.
Copy !req
325. I wanted to send you
a real quick message
Copy !req
326. letting you know
how proud I am of you.
Copy !req
327. You have always been
a special special little boy
Copy !req
328. from the time you were two
and three years old,
Copy !req
329. running around in
your sister's tutu,
Copy !req
330. to the time that I knew
I was going to lose you
Copy !req
331. to a big city.
Copy !req
332. I knew one thing
would never change,
Copy !req
333. and that is my love for you.
Copy !req
334. I love you as my son,
I love you as Pearl,
Copy !req
335. and we could not be
more proud of you,
Copy !req
336. and I am so happy to have
watched you go through this.
Copy !req
337. I love you
and I'll see you soon.
Copy !req
338. Muwah.
Copy !req
339. Pearl, your mother is here.
Copy !req
340. I want to say hi to
the mother of Pearl.
Copy !req
341. Hello mother of Pearl.
Copy !req
342. Hello Ru.
Copy !req
343. Now, you've gone
over and above for
Copy !req
344. your support of Pearl.
Copy !req
345. Tell us about that.
Copy !req
346. One day I thought,
'I should do a fan page.'
Copy !req
347. Within just a few hours,
Copy !req
348. I was literally inundated
with private messaging
Copy !req
349. from younger gay boys...
Copy !req
350. Looking for sex.
Copy !req
351. No that's—that's my fan page.
Copy !req
352. That's your fan page.
Copy !req
353. Right right right.
Copy !req
354. Anyways, I was
just messaged by
Copy !req
355. so many people:
Copy !req
356. "How do I come out
to my parents?"
Copy !req
357. It's been pretty amazing.
Copy !req
358. That's fabulous.
Copy !req
359. That's wonderful.
Copy !req
360. So Pearl, what would
you do with $100,000?
Copy !req
361. Well, maybe
buy some nice wigs
Copy !req
362. after seeing myself in
Copy !req
363. those thirsty ass wigs
all season long.
Copy !req
364. I'm going
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
Copy !req
365. Now, one final question:
Copy !req
366. Do I have something
on my face?
Copy !req
367. The answer is yes,
Copy !req
368. and it's a mixture of
pride, affection
Copy !req
369. and about two and a half
inches of foundation.
Copy !req
370. Ladies and gentlemen,
give it up for Pearl!
Copy !req
371. Is Pearl the queen
of your dreams?
Copy !req
372. Sound off now.
Copy !req
373. Coming up next...
Copy !req
374. Violet Chachki bares all.
Copy !req
375. And later, the season seven
queens reunite
Copy !req
376. and let us have it.
Copy !req
377. Welcome back
to the grand finale
Copy !req
378. of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Copy !req
379. It's time for one last tango
with the queen
Copy !req
380. who's always in vogue,
Copy !req
381. please welcome Violet Chachki.
Copy !req
382. Come through, mama.
Copy !req
383. Ok, Violet,
let's talk to the judges.
Copy !req
384. Starting with,
I hate Michelle Visage.
Copy !req
385. You can hate me all you want.
Copy !req
386. I loves me some
Violette Chachki.
Copy !req
387. I think what's so
impressive about you is,
Copy !req
388. you have beautiful clothes.
Copy !req
389. But you wear the clothes,
they don't wear you.
Copy !req
390. You really present yourself.
Copy !req
391. Thank you.
Copy !req
392. Every week, I've been
on the edge of my seat
Copy !req
393. waiting for you to
electrify me with your looks,
Copy !req
394. and you did.
Copy !req
395. And tonight, though,
Copy !req
396. you elextrified me with
your performance, honey.
Copy !req
397. Congratulations you earned it.
Copy !req
398. Thank you judges.
Copy !req
399. Now Violet Chachki,
since day one,
Copy !req
400. you wowed us with your runway.
Copy !req
401. But this competition has not
always been a cinch for you.
Copy !req
402. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
403. I'm a one of
a kind collectable.
Copy !req
404. Party.
Copy !req
405. my biggest strength
is probably aesthetics.
Copy !req
406. I'm very visually appealing.
Copy !req
407. Is that conceited?
Copy !req
408. You took fashion risks,
and they paid off.
Copy !req
409. Oh.
Copy !req
410. I'm giving you Tartan Eleganza,
Copy !req
411. I'm giving you 1956 Dior.
Copy !req
412. I'm giving you John Willie
vintage smut for your nerves.
Copy !req
413. You might've been playing
a dead person,
Copy !req
414. but we were living.
Copy !req
415. Violet does have a tendency
to be sort of bitchy.
Copy !req
416. You are the team leader,
whatever you want, boo-boo.
Copy !req
417. I think people think I'm mean,
Copy !req
418. but everything I've done here
Copy !req
419. either comes from
a place of humour,
Copy !req
420. or a place of truth.
Copy !req
421. I think the biggest thing
that I've learned
Copy !req
422. throughout this process
Copy !req
423. is to just be aware
of your first impressions.
Copy !req
424. I honestly feel like I do
represent the past,
Copy !req
425. the present,
but more than anything,
Copy !req
426. the future.
Copy !req
427. So when did you start
designing your own clothes?
Copy !req
428. I think I started sewing
around 8th grade.
Copy !req
429. I think 'cause skinny jeans
were just now becoming a thing,
Copy !req
430. and they didn't have them
in boy's clothes,
Copy !req
431. so I like, and I also tailored
my Catholic school uniform.
Copy !req
432. You went to Catholic school?
Copy !req
433. I did go to Catholic school.
Copy !req
434. K-12.
Copy !req
435. And I would do
alterations mostly,
Copy !req
436. so I think 12 or 13
I got a sewing machine.
Copy !req
437. Where'd all this
confidence come from?
Copy !req
438. I think I got to a point
in my life where I was just sick
Copy !req
439. of dealing with other people,
what they wanted me to do.
Copy !req
440. I was like
"You know what,
Copy !req
441. I'm gonna live
my life for me.
Copy !req
442. And that's it."
Copy !req
443. So we have some
fan questions for you.
Copy !req
444. Are you ready for 'em?
Copy !req
445. Yeah, let's do it.
Copy !req
446. Alright, look.
Copy !req
447. There is Gia Gunn.
Copy !req
448. Hi Gia Gunn.
Copy !req
449. We have, from Skyler,
from California.
Copy !req
450. Violet, what would you tell a
teenager who wants to do drag,
Copy !req
451. but is afraid of how their
family and friends will react?
Copy !req
452. Well what I did
is that I would do drag
Copy !req
453. in the middle of the night,
Copy !req
454. in my bedroom with
the door locked.
Copy !req
455. And then eventually I went out,
snuck around.
Copy !req
456. Just do it in secret
until it became okay,
Copy !req
457. and I became
comfortable to do it,
Copy !req
458. and be proud of it.
Copy !req
459. Oh, that's good advice.
Copy !req
460. Absolutely.
Copy !req
461. I think that's wonderful.
Copy !req
462. Well thank you, Gia.
Copy !req
463. Do we have another question?
Copy !req
464. Hi.
Copy !req
465. Hi Mimi.
Copy !req
466. Ok, Violet Chachki.
Copy !req
467. You were voted
the shadiest queen
Copy !req
468. by the other girls.
Copy !req
469. Chris from San Diego
wants to know,
Copy !req
470. who did you vote for and why?
Copy !req
471. I think I voted
for myself, actually.
Copy !req
472. I'm honest.
Copy !req
473. If you can't hate yourself,
Copy !req
474. how the hell are you
going to hate somebody else.
Copy !req
475. Well there you have it.
Copy !req
476. It's time to hear from some
of your biggest supporters.
Copy !req
477. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
478. I'm Team Violet
because she's sickening.
Copy !req
479. Team Violet for the win.
Copy !req
480. Yas, bitch.
Copy !req
481. it up.
Copy !req
482. Slay, come through.
Copy !req
483. Hi Violet, mom here.
Copy !req
484. I just wanted to say
congratulations
Copy !req
485. for making it to the finals.
Copy !req
486. I am so proud of the way
you have handled yourself.
Copy !req
487. We just wanted to let you
know how proud of you we are,
Copy !req
488. and that we never doubted
you'd make it to the finals.
Copy !req
489. Now the rest of
the world knows it too.
Copy !req
490. We're so proud to
be your friends.
Copy !req
491. Now make
them bitches eat it.
Copy !req
492. We love you.
Copy !req
493. Hi Violet, your dad here.
Copy !req
494. I would like to wish you
all the success in the world.
Copy !req
495. I am very proud
of the level of accomplishment
Copy !req
496. you have achieved
doing what you love to do.
Copy !req
497. I hope to see you go
all the way to the top.
Copy !req
498. Good luck, we love you.
Copy !req
499. So your mother Alex is here.
Copy !req
500. What advice do you have for
parents who have children
Copy !req
501. who are as flamboyant
as Violet?
Copy !req
502. As a parent you have to
let them be their own person.
Copy !req
503. That's all you can do.
Copy !req
504. Right, right.
Copy !req
505. That's good advice.
Copy !req
506. Thanks Alex.
Copy !req
507. Now Violet, what would it
mean to you to become
Copy !req
508. America's next drag superstar?
Copy !req
509. It would mean everything.
Copy !req
510. Like, this is literally it.
Copy !req
511. This is what I love to do.
Copy !req
512. I have such a passion for it.
Copy !req
513. It literally gives me life.
Copy !req
514. Like, when I say that,
It's everything to me.
Copy !req
515. It brings me so much
happiness and joy.
Copy !req
516. In whatever mood I'm in,
Copy !req
517. I can watch a bitch
like Kennedy twirl,
Copy !req
518. and just get so happy
watching it.
Copy !req
519. It really moves me,
and I love it so much.
Copy !req
520. And it would mean
the world to me.
Copy !req
521. Well Violet Chachki,
you're not just
Copy !req
522. a one of a kind collectable.
Copy !req
523. You are treasure.
Copy !req
524. Ladies and Gentlemen,
Violet Chachki.
Copy !req
525. Are you Team Violet?
Copy !req
526. Let your voice be heard.
Copy !req
527. Coming up, the queens
of season seven
Copy !req
528. are reunited
and it feels so good.
Copy !req
529. As we prepare to crown
America's next drag superstar.
Copy !req
530. Welcome back to the grand finale
of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Copy !req
531. Now while the top three are
backstage getting ready,
Copy !req
532. it's time to catch up
with the queens
Copy !req
533. that made this season sickening.
Copy !req
534. Starting with a drag dad,
a code cracker,
Copy !req
535. a corn popper, and
a very married lady.
Copy !req
536. Momma's home.
Copy !req
537. My drag style is
influenced by the campy
Copy !req
538. and kitschy people of the world.
Copy !req
539. So how old are you?
Copy !req
540. How old am I?
Copy !req
541. Really.
Copy !req
542. I'm Sasha Belle.
Copy !req
543. Say hello to
my little friends.
Copy !req
544. I could tell you every episode,
what the talent was,
Copy !req
545. who went home.
Copy !req
546. I feel like
I've cracked the code.
Copy !req
547. They've never gonna pick
a pop man looking like this.
Copy !req
548. I'm the next drag superstar
because I've done my homework.
Copy !req
549. We made it bitches!
Copy !req
550. Jasmine is
class and elegance.
Copy !req
551. I am here, H-E-R-E
bitch, I'm here!
Copy !req
552. Where did you
get a loaf of bread?
Copy !req
553. No T no shade no pink lemonade.
Copy !req
554. Hi my honies I'm home!
Copy !req
555. My name is
Mrs Kasha Davis.
Copy !req
556. Is that Joan Rivers?
Copy !req
557. What are you wearing?
Copy !req
558. Anybody can be a girl,
Copy !req
559. but it takes a lot of balls
to be a lady.
Copy !req
560. There's always time
for a cocktail.
Copy !req
561. Tempest DuJour, Kandy Ho'
accused you of being too old.
Copy !req
562. How did that make you feel?
Copy !req
563. Well it never feels good,
but Kandy and I are friends,
Copy !req
564. I wish that at my age she looks
half as fabulous as I do.
Copy !req
565. I'm sorry
for calling you old.
Copy !req
566. My mama taught me
better than that, right?
Copy !req
567. To be nice to old people?
Copy !req
568. I love you girl,
I love you so much.
Copy !req
569. I love you too, I really do.
Copy !req
570. You also have
an eight year old
Copy !req
571. and a five year old at home,
did they watch?
Copy !req
572. They did, my daughter
watched the first episode
Copy !req
573. and she started to cry
when I got eliminated
Copy !req
574. and she said, "Papa, why doesn't
RuPaul like you anymore?"
Copy !req
575. Mimi, if you're watching,
RuPaul loves your daddy.
Copy !req
576. Now go to bed!
Copy !req
577. Next up
we've got Sasha Belle.
Copy !req
578. You arrived thinking
that you had cracked the code.
Copy !req
579. What happened?
Copy !req
580. Well I thought that
I did crack the code,
Copy !req
581. and I thought I knew
what you were looking for.
Copy !req
582. But I think what makes
the show so great is that
Copy !req
583. it's so different every season.
Copy !req
584. And I wasn't ready.
Copy !req
585. Alright, alright.
Copy !req
586. Now back in Iowa,
you host a night
Copy !req
587. called Sasha Belle's Drag Race,
is that right?
Copy !req
588. Yes, yes.
Copy !req
589. Oh.
Copy !req
590. First of all, you'll be
hearing from my lawyers.
Copy !req
591. And second of all,
how is that going?
Copy !req
592. It's going really good.
Copy !req
593. We do it because I really
love this show,
Copy !req
594. I do, you know.
Copy !req
595. And if there was no grand prize,
I would still play.
Copy !req
596. Well listen, you keep
ringing them bells girl.
Copy !req
597. Up next, Jasmine Masters!
Copy !req
598. Now what was your most exciting
moment on the Drag Race?
Copy !req
599. Meeting Kennedy.
Copy !req
600. Really?
Copy !req
601. Yeah, I watched her at least
nine years on VCR tapes,
Copy !req
602. glam pageants
and dancing and stuff.
Copy !req
603. I'm sorry, I've been meaning
to tell you, forgive me girl!
Copy !req
604. So Jasmine, who
inspired you to do drag?
Copy !req
605. Patti LaBelle.
Copy !req
606. She's just who she is
when she's on stage,
Copy !req
607. when she's offstage
she gives 1,000%,
Copy !req
608. I just love her,
she's everything to me.
Copy !req
609. Well we have a surprise for you,
take a look.
Copy !req
610. Hi Jasmine.
Copy !req
611. I love the way you
scared it up, honey.
Copy !req
612. Thank you for always
looking like Patti LaBelle
Copy !req
613. at my concerts.
Copy !req
614. I love you, bye!
Copy !req
615. Are you serious right now?
Copy !req
616. Yes.
Copy !req
617. Yes, yeah.
Copy !req
618. Well listen, I felt like we
needed to lift you up even more
Copy !req
619. because on social media, people
were very very harsh to you.
Copy !req
620. How did that make you feel?
Copy !req
621. When you are getting
so much negativity
Copy !req
622. it's like you can't breathe.
Copy !req
623. And it took me back to
a friend of mine who had
Copy !req
624. committed suicide when they
was getting bullied so much,
Copy !req
625. being young and gay
Copy !req
626. when their parents put them
out on the street.
Copy !req
627. The straight world
didn't accept them,
Copy !req
628. the gay world
didn't accept them,
Copy !req
629. so they just ended it
Copy !req
630. because they didn't
feel they belonged
Copy !req
631. and at that point in time,
I felt like I didn't belong.
Copy !req
632. So it was hard but I just ate
a lot of food
Copy !req
633. and a lot of hot sauce.
Copy !req
634. I'm glad you did get through it,
I'm glad you're here.
Copy !req
635. Listen, for seven seasons
RuPaul's Drag Race
Copy !req
636. has been one of the most popular
shows on social media.
Copy !req
637. But recently,
there's been a shift,
Copy !req
638. with more and more comments
having a darker tone.
Copy !req
639. But like my mom always said,
unless them bitches
Copy !req
640. is paying your bills you pay
them bitches no mind!
Copy !req
641. Alright, next up there's
always time for a cocktail
Copy !req
642. and Mrs Kasha Davis!
Copy !req
643. During the competition
you had some issues
Copy !req
644. with some of the younger kids.
Copy !req
645. What were they?
Copy !req
646. Well some of the young gals
on the show just had
Copy !req
647. sort of a sense of entitlement.
Copy !req
648. And it gets a little grating in
that respect where somebody's
Copy !req
649. "I've only been doing this
for seven months
Copy !req
650. and I'm gonna win",
and they might.
Copy !req
651. But I mean you know, I learned
a lot from these girls.
Copy !req
652. Trixie, she taught me how to
put way too much makeup on.
Copy !req
653. And I'm wearing two of
Violet's corsets right here.
Copy !req
654. Now listen, I've always
wanted to ask you,
Copy !req
655. is there really a
Mr Kasha Davis?
Copy !req
656. There is!
Copy !req
657. Where is he?
Copy !req
658. Right here!
Copy !req
659. That's him right there,
that's Mr Davis?
Copy !req
660. Hi Mr Kasha Davis!
Copy !req
661. He's really cute!
Copy !req
662. He's really cute.
Copy !req
663. Get ready Mr Davis,
'cause Momma's coming home!
Copy !req
664. Are you Team Ginger,
Team Pearl, or Team Violet?
Copy !req
665. Coming up, a season's worth of
dish and drama get untucked,
Copy !req
666. as we get closer to crowning
America's next drag superstar.
Copy !req
667. Welcome back to the grand finale
of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Copy !req
668. Now as our top three prepare
backstage for the crowning of
Copy !req
669. America's next drag superstar,
these four queens are
Copy !req
670. the perfect balance of sugar,
spice, and everything nice.
Copy !req
671. Oh, and um, chickens too.
Copy !req
672. Take a look.
Copy !req
673. I hope you girls
got a sweet tooth,
Copy !req
674. because Kandy's in
the mother house.
Copy !req
675. Kandy is hot,
Kandy is caliente.
Copy !req
676. If you touch her too close,
you might get burned!
Copy !req
677. I think this runway is
right on my alley.
Copy !req
678. Well, it about time.
Copy !req
679. I do drag because
I have the yearning
Copy !req
680. for old Hollywood glamour.
Copy !req
681. I'm a starlet on the rise.
Copy !req
682. There's a man on
the wing of the plane!
Copy !req
683. Tramp!
Copy !req
684. You are the
Meryl Streep of drag.
Copy !req
685. It's all so surreal.
Copy !req
686. My name is Jaidynn Diore Fierce,
how y'all doing?
Copy !req
687. Because I am what?
Copy !req
688. Fierce.
Copy !req
689. Work that puss!
Copy !req
690. I have not officially
come out to my family yet.
Copy !req
691. I think it may
change my relationship
Copy !req
692. and that's what
I'm scared of most.
Copy !req
693. My brand is runaway shows,
fashion magazines,
Copy !req
694. beyond this planet beautiful.
Copy !req
695. Should I not talk about
my feelings or obviously
Copy !req
696. should I just keep them inside.
Copy !req
697. I feel like I'm dating you.
Copy !req
698. How's your head?
Copy !req
699. How is your head?
Copy !req
700. How's your head?
Copy !req
701. Fine.
Copy !req
702. That's how I talk to chickens.
Copy !req
703. So Kandy Ho', I hear that
you are thinking about
Copy !req
704. leaving Puerto Rico?
Copy !req
705. I am.
Copy !req
706. Escandalo!
Copy !req
707. Ai, si!
Copy !req
708. I love Puerto Rico and I've been
there since I was ten.
Copy !req
709. Where were you before?
Copy !req
710. Connecticut.
Copy !req
711. You're a liar!
Copy !req
712. Like yeah, I guess I'm a fake
Puerto Rican, right?
Copy !req
713. Okay, alright.
Copy !req
714. So what would you
have done differently?
Copy !req
715. I probably wouldn't have
painted on a beard.
Copy !req
716. I looked like a
Neapolitan ice cream!
Copy !req
717. Do you do
your own makeup?
Copy !req
718. I started doing my makeup
like a month before
Copy !req
719. auditioning for the show.
Copy !req
720. I mean in Puerto Rico
Copy !req
721. like we just go up to
our fabulous makeup artist
Copy !req
722. and we're like paint me,
do my hair,
Copy !req
723. dress me up and I'm gone.
Copy !req
724. So, it's like my mistake, sorry.
Copy !req
725. Yeah.
Copy !req
726. Listen, Kandy my dear you are
one of my favourite hos
Copy !req
727. and that's saying a lot
because I know a lot of hos.
Copy !req
728. Alright, next the silver fox
of season seven, Max!
Copy !req
729. Yes.
Copy !req
730. Now this season, when he
queens were talking about sex,
Copy !req
731. you weren't having it, at all.
Copy !req
732. Listen, when
you're with these girls,
Copy !req
733. they don't talk about
anything else besides sex.
Copy !req
734. But I was just tired of it for
a moment, just for a moment.
Copy !req
735. I really, I'm not
that big of a prude.
Copy !req
736. Honest to goodness.
Copy !req
737. So now you coached
Jaidynn and Pearl through
Copy !req
738. a few tense moments,
tell us about that.
Copy !req
739. Well Jaidynn is an actress,
she is a performer.
Copy !req
740. For her to say that
I'm not I'm not I'm not,
Copy !req
741. that was nerves and I knew it.
Copy !req
742. So we had to calm down, Pearl
had to calm down, to regroup,
Copy !req
743. and then we had to go kill it.
Copy !req
744. I love it, that's great!
Copy !req
745. That's great advice.
Copy !req
746. Well Max, when it comes to
my feelings for you,
Copy !req
747. there are no grey areas.
Copy !req
748. Up next,
Jaidynn Diore Fierce!
Copy !req
749. What surprised you the most
about being on the show?
Copy !req
750. Um, well I didn't think
we were gonna be
Copy !req
751. locked up so much.
Copy !req
752. Yeah, you're sequestered.
Copy !req
753. That was something,
I was imagining myself
Copy !req
754. going out to dinner
with you darling,
Copy !req
755. I thought we were gonna get to
go on Hollywood Boulevard,
Copy !req
756. here's some munchies,
Copy !req
757. some cauliflower, cornbread,
green beans, turkey!
Copy !req
758. And I wasn't able to do that!
Copy !req
759. I was sitting in my hotel room,
beating myself up
Copy !req
760. and eating Doritos!
Copy !req
761. And that's different
from your normal life?
Copy !req
762. Now on a personal note,
you revealed that
Copy !req
763. your mother and your brother
knew that you did drag,
Copy !req
764. but they didn't know
that you were gay.
Copy !req
765. Has that changed,
where is that right now?
Copy !req
766. Well I think it was she
didn't want me to be that way.
Copy !req
767. I don't think they understand
fully who a gay person is.
Copy !req
768. Well that's funny,
Copy !req
769. because we have a little
surprise for you.
Copy !req
770. Take a look at this.
Copy !req
771. Surprise surprise!
Copy !req
772. I didn't get a chance
to talk to you.
Copy !req
773. You had some concerns.
Copy !req
774. I've experienced rejection
in my life, as you know.
Copy !req
775. So it's very hard for me
to reject mine
Copy !req
776. because I know how hurtful
and painful rejection is.
Copy !req
777. This is not a battle,
it is just one thing
Copy !req
778. that you're just gonna learn
to just go ahead
Copy !req
779. and do what we do
Copy !req
780. and that's love one another
and be a family.
Copy !req
781. And my love is not
based on what you do,
Copy !req
782. my love is based on who you are.
Copy !req
783. And you're my precious
handsome Christopher.
Copy !req
784. What are you
feeling right now?
Copy !req
785. I feel like my family is now
gonna be able to get to know
Copy !req
786. who I really am
after 26 years of my life.
Copy !req
787. If I don't get anything else,
I got the peace and the freedom
Copy !req
788. to be who I am around
my family and to be happy.
Copy !req
789. RuPaul's Drag Race, still
bringing families together.
Copy !req
790. Hello.
Copy !req
791. Alright, up next,
Miss Fame girl hey.
Copy !req
792. Hi, hi!
Copy !req
793. By the way,
how's your head?
Copy !req
794. Well, there have been
a few complaints.
Copy !req
795. You and Katya came clean
about being sober,
Copy !req
796. and what's the reaction been?
Copy !req
797. You know what,
Copy !req
798. I've had so many people write me
personal stories
Copy !req
799. about how much time they
had, how inspiring it was.
Copy !req
800. It's just a dream come true
to be able to walk through
Copy !req
801. the obstacle of addiction
and be able to live your life.
Copy !req
802. Now Miss Fame, all season long
you were serving
Copy !req
803. fierce couture
gorgeous fashions.
Copy !req
804. And the only thing people
want to talk to you about
Copy !req
805. are chickens.
Copy !req
806. You know what,
I'm not mad about it.
Copy !req
807. At least
they're talking to me.
Copy !req
808. yeah.
Copy !req
809. I grew up on a farm
Copy !req
810. where there was nobody else
but the chickens, so...
Copy !req
811. Hey can you talk a little
chicken to me right now?
Copy !req
812. I can talk chicken to you,
but I think it's best
Copy !req
813. I have a special guest
come out to help me do that.
Copy !req
814. Is Colonel Sanders here?
Copy !req
815. Hold on one moment.
Copy !req
816. Colonel Sanders?
Copy !req
817. I thought he was dead.
Copy !req
818. Gorgeous, she's got
bigger hair than me tonight.
Copy !req
819. Do you do tricks
with it or anything?
Copy !req
820. Well I'm afraid of it
on my couture.
Copy !req
821. Oh dear.
Copy !req
822. Miss Fame, whether
it's fashion or poultry,
Copy !req
823. you have a bright
future ahead of you.
Copy !req
824. Just don't cluck it up, okay?
Copy !req
825. I promise I won't.
Copy !req
826. It's not too late
to make some noise
Copy !req
827. for your favourite
top three queen.
Copy !req
828. Coming up, Trixie Mattel,
Katya and Kennedy Davenport
Copy !req
829. spill the tea.
Copy !req
830. And this year's Miss
Congeniality is revealed.
Copy !req
831. Welcome back to the grand
finale of Ru Paul's Drag Race.
Copy !req
832. We are moments away
from finding out if Ginger,
Copy !req
833. Pearl, or Violet Chachki
will be crowned
Copy !req
834. America's Next Drag Superstar,
but first,
Copy !req
835. some fierce contenders
that gave our top three
Copy !req
836. a real run for their money.
Copy !req
837. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
838. This isn't Maury Povich.
Copy !req
839. Drag Queens always say
paint for the back row.
Copy !req
840. I paint for the check cashing
place down the street.
Copy !req
841. If you're going
to be the comedy queen,
Copy !req
842. you gotta go all the way.
Copy !req
843. You're right girl,
you're right.
Copy !req
844. Ohh!
Copy !req
845. Good evening
distinguished panel of judges.
Copy !req
846. Sashay away.
Copy !req
847. Right, public school,
calm down.
Copy !req
848. I'm just your average
run of the mill
Copy !req
849. Russian bisexual
transvestite hooker.
Copy !req
850. Feel the heat
on my sizzling meat.
Copy !req
851. I'm not going anywhere,
Ru and I are great friends!
Copy !req
852. Miss Fame
did I make it?
Copy !req
853. When do I
get to blow them?
Copy !req
854. I can't say that?
Copy !req
855. I can't say that either?
Copy !req
856. Well hello!
Copy !req
857. I'm Kennedy Davenport,
Copy !req
858. I spin, I clip, I jump off
the stage in six inch heals.
Copy !req
859. Kennedy, did you
rehearse your team?
Copy !req
860. That was a rough spot.
Copy !req
861. Next.
Copy !req
862. Wooo.
Copy !req
863. Kennedy Davenport!
Copy !req
864. Yes!
Copy !req
865. Newark, Laguardia,
Kennedy Davenport.
Copy !req
866. Ain't nobody got time for that!
Copy !req
867. So Trixie Mattel.
Copy !req
868. When you first left, when
everyone went cray cray,
Copy !req
869. what was that like?
Copy !req
870. I felt very
supported and loved.
Copy !req
871. I felt like less of a loser.
Copy !req
872. Well now see
losing is the new winning.
Copy !req
873. Yes!
Copy !req
874. What's your life
been like since Drag Race?
Copy !req
875. Oh my gosh.
Copy !req
876. If I never get a chance again
I have to thank you,
Copy !req
877. because you reached into
my little blonde pink life
Copy !req
878. and changed it so much.
Copy !req
879. I'm glad you got to
experience this.
Copy !req
880. Now I hear you do a mean
RuPaul impersonation.
Copy !req
881. I could never,
I could never.
Copy !req
882. Lemme hear it,
lemme see.
Copy !req
883. Okay.
Copy !req
884. Trixie Mattel.
Copy !req
885. On the runway, you're
a doll, but your comedy
Copy !req
886. seems... manufactured.
Copy !req
887. Are you mad?
Copy !req
888. Sashay away.
Copy !req
889. Three times,
three times!
Copy !req
890. Next up, Katya!
Copy !req
891. So Katya, now
all season long
Copy !req
892. you were plagued with doubt.
Copy !req
893. What was going on?
Copy !req
894. I was terrified
the whole time.
Copy !req
895. Really?
Copy !req
896. RuPaul,
you are sitting there,
Copy !req
897. I see you, but I want to
tackle you to the ground.
Copy !req
898. Uh huh, yeah.
Copy !req
899. I want to stuff your
entire wig inside my mouth.
Copy !req
900. Okay, yeah.
Copy !req
901. And I want you
to pee on me.
Copy !req
902. Okay, yeah.
Copy !req
903. And listen, listen, the
first time you came over to me
Copy !req
904. in the work room, I was like,
waiting my whole life
Copy !req
905. for this interaction,
and then I don't know,
Copy !req
906. there's something in
my brain that said
Copy !req
907. 'she wants to kill you.'
Copy !req
908. And of course I know
you don't want to—
Copy !req
909. I mean I'm 98% sure at least.
Copy !req
910. Know what, I did
want to kill you.
Copy !req
911. No, and then I just
couldn't, I don't know.
Copy !req
912. But now having
seen the show,
Copy !req
913. do you see that
it's unfounded,
Copy !req
914. that you have no
reason to doubt yourself,
Copy !req
915. do you see how
fabulous you were?
Copy !req
916. Watching this show
has given me,
Copy !req
917. like, self-esteem.
Copy !req
918. Woo!
Copy !req
919. So thank you so much Ru.
Copy !req
920. Katya, you are a freak,
and I freakin' love you.
Copy !req
921. Oh my God.
Copy !req
922. Alright.
Copy !req
923. Up next, Laguardia,
Newark, Kennedy!
Copy !req
924. Now, Kennedy,
when I started saying that,
Copy !req
925. I had no idea that you would
actually fly off
Copy !req
926. the main stage.
Copy !req
927. Have you ever hurt
between me down there?
Copy !req
928. No, I mean,
I'm a trained dancer.
Copy !req
929. You mean dahncer.
Copy !req
930. Dahnsah.
Copy !req
931. So I did the necessary things
to stretch and stuff
Copy !req
932. to make sure
that did not happen.
Copy !req
933. But there's more down there
that could get hurt.
Copy !req
934. Yeah, way more than Katya.
Copy !req
935. It's true.
Copy !req
936. Yeah.
Copy !req
937. Now you know throughout
the season we joked about
Copy !req
938. the struggle is real, that
became one of your tag lines,
Copy !req
939. but in your family,
in your background,
Copy !req
940. that's a reality.
Copy !req
941. I know that you recently
reunited with your mother
Copy !req
942. after a long separation.
Copy !req
943. My mother been in and out.
Copy !req
944. My dad got custody
when I was two years old,
Copy !req
945. and my sister was two months,
and she would make me mad
Copy !req
946. because she said she would
come into the house
Copy !req
947. and she never came,
she was in and out,
Copy !req
948. she was in her own journey.
Copy !req
949. But she's here tonight
with you is that right?
Copy !req
950. Yes she is.
Copy !req
951. Chicory, are you there,
is that Chickie right there?
Copy !req
952. I love it.
Copy !req
953. Hey momma Chicory.
Copy !req
954. I am so glad you are
here with us tonight.
Copy !req
955. Give her a big round of applause
ladies and gentlemen.
Copy !req
956. And on another note,
if you ever have the chance
Copy !req
957. to get out and see Miss
Kennedy Davenport in concert,
Copy !req
958. live, it will give
you life, trust.
Copy !req
959. Yes.
Copy !req
960. Yes, it's true.
Copy !req
961. Thank you.
Copy !req
962. Now it's time for
some viewer questions.
Copy !req
963. Who's first?
Copy !req
964. Hi!
Copy !req
965. I have a question for Trixie.
Copy !req
966. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
967. From Sarah.
Copy !req
968. Yeah.
Copy !req
969. Your Max knew
each other in college.
Copy !req
970. Did Max speak with that
fake-ass British accent then?
Copy !req
971. Uh, I don't think she did,
Copy !req
972. but I've never been to
that area of Wisconsin,
Copy !req
973. so maybe they all
talk that way there.
Copy !req
974. It's just an
elocution thing,
Copy !req
975. a diction and an
elocution thing,
Copy !req
976. it's not an accent.
Copy !req
977. What'd she say?
Copy !req
978. She said an elocution,
not an accent.
Copy !req
979. Alocusha?
Copy !req
980. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
981. Yeah.
Copy !req
982. Is she from Inglewood?
Copy !req
983. Yes.
Copy !req
984. I know her,
I know her.
Copy !req
985. I went to high school
with her, yeah.

986. Well Delta Work,
