39. Well, hi.

40. I know you might know me as Thirsty Von Trap,

41. but it is me, it is Mark Indelicato

42. from Ugly Betty and Hacks.

43. I know that I don't look as beautiful right now

44. as I do when I'm in drag,

57. O-M-G, I'm Gleeking out.

65. and I wanna bring it.

66. I wanna bring it hard.

67. That's right,

68. we've got ourselves a fresh princess of Bel Air.

69. My queens, the sisterhood is about to get real,

70. and this competition will never be the same.

71. It all starts in three... two... one.

72. And what?

73. Welcome to RuPaul's Secret Celebrity Drag Race.

74. Say hello to our Judge Judy, Michelle Visage.

75. Mwah!

76. And the hilarious Ross Mathews!

77. Hi, everybody! Hi! Hi!

78. Now, in case you haven't heard,

79. the secret is out and the pressure is on.

80. Tonight, our queens will be performing

81. a group and solo performance from the Drag Race songbook.

82. Category is RuPaulapalooza.

83. Celebrities, start your engines, and may the best drag queen win!

84. The winner of RuPaul's Secret Celebrity Drag Race

85. will win $100.000 for their favorite charity

86. and be crowned America's next celebrity drag superstar.

87. Now, all hail our Queen Supremes:

88. Brooke Lynn Hytes, Jujubee,

89. and Monét X Change!

90. Hello, ladykins!

91. - Hi, Mama Ru! - Hey, Ru!

92. All right, now, just between us squirrel friends,

93. what's the backstage tea?

94. Mama Ru, the competition has been turnt up

95. several many notches and stuff.

96. - Ooh! - Ooh!

97. After last week, our celebrity queens were gagging.

98. But Mama, luckily,

99. the three of us were born without a gag reflex.

100. Take a look.

101. We're about to work in the werkroom together.

102. We've been doing this for so many weeks,

103. but, like, not in this way.

104. - Out of drag. - Yeah, out of drag.

105. Like, getting to, like, spend time together, really.

106. I prefer the makeup, honestly.

107. - Yeah. - For me.

108. - This feels naked now. - Yeah.

109. I feel like the competition has changed.

110. Knowing who everybody really is makes it a lot scarier.

111. Like, oh, you're a Backstreet Boy.

112. You've been performing as long as I've been alive.

113. Now that we're all Ru-vealed,

114. like, how much of our actual personalities

115. are gonna start filling in

116. some of the different empty pockets of our personas?

117. Enjoyed my anonymity very much

118. because I have not been anonymous

119. since I was a very little person.

120. Now that we've all been revealed,

121. I'm trying to not actually let that

122. get into my consciousness at all,

123. because this experience has freed me up.

124. Chakra has done work in me.

125. I feel like anything could happen at any moment in this.

126. Ooh, girl!

127. She done already done had herses!

128. - Oh, my God. - What?

129. - Hey, Racers. - Hi-ee.

130. Con-drag-ulations for surviving

131. the first half of the competition.

132. You've all blossomed into sickening drag queens,

133. but one question still remains.

134. Are you willing to do whatever it takes

135. to be a winner, baby?

136. Well, I'll be the judge of that.

137. Whatever it takes?

138. - What do we have to do? - That's not a riddle.

139. I knew something was about to go down.

140. We were chilling too hard.

141. All hail our Queen Supremes!

142. Hello, hello, hello!

143. Hi, ladykins.

144. In addition to your solo lip sync performances,

145. you will participate in classic Drag Race challenges.

146. This week you'll be working together

147. in a drag-tastic group number.

148. - Werk!

149. Baby, I Made It,

150. from the hit Las Vegas show RuPaul's Drag Race Live.

151. Currently playing at Flamingo Las Vegas.

152. Listen, whatever you do, just don't fuck it up.

153. This competition just got blown wide open, folks.

154. We all get to share the stage together,

155. and even though it's a performance together,

156. it's still part of the competition.

157. We each have a moment to shine,

158. and hopefully shine brighter than the other four.

159. I'm having flashbacks.

160. Just being with five people, I'm having flashbacks.

161. We will be performing RuPaul's song in front of RuPaul.

162. It's a little nerve-racking.

163. And then you guys back out.

164. The competition right now is about as tight as my tuck.

165. Just watching how easy Thirsty folds over.

166. My body doesn't work like that.

167. But you know what? I'm trying to reach as far

168. as I physically, emotionally, and spiritually can.

169. I'm here to do this right now.

170. I love how Chakra

171. is already performing it like she's on stage.

172. Because it's the right foot—

173. There's something about right foot that I just can't—

174. It's nerve-racking to not get lost.

175. Those are fierce queens.

176. But I need to keep in mind to just be confident in myself.

177. Just remember your individual notes

178. that you've been getting throughout the competition.

179. A big part of what Ru says is stand out in the crowd.

180. We really get to kind of size each other up in this way.

181. We're still all sisters, but this is a competition.

182. I think that there are so many opportunities

183. for me to bring the Thirsty to it

184. that none of these other queens have.

185. This is it.

186. Flamingo Las Vegas is proud to present

187. RuPaul's Drag Race Live!

188. Uh, excuse me, sir, can you help me with these bags?

189. Death?

190. It all happened so fast, I had no time to shop!

191. What's my favorite number?

192. 13... inches.

193. Oh, my God, have you seen who's on stage?

194. - No. - Where is she?

195. - I don't know, - Oh, my God!

196. Does anyone know where she is?

197. I'm coming! I'm coming!

198. - Oh, there she is. - Reeowr!

199. 'Cause none of these queens can give you...

200. Let's see what you've got, girls.

201. Okay.

202. Looks like I got a little competition.

203. Good.

204. All right, queens, time to hit the showers

205. and get ready for your solo performances.

206. You may leave the stage.

207. Tonight, category is RuPaulapalooza,

208. or as the French say,

209. "she done already done had herses."

210. First up, bitches better get outta the way

211. for Thirsty Von Trap.

212. - Okay, girl! - Monét X Change!

213. Mwah, mwah!

214. - I'm still here!

215. After last week's performance,

216. one of the things that is not showing through for the judges

217. is, like, really not being afraid to be foolish.

218. Drag, I think, you know, is not the art of subtlety.

219. In film and television, I've been conditioned

220. to always bring it down, because the camera's right here.

221. But also, part of that

222. is inextricably linked to confidence.

223. Confidence is key, baby.

224. You need to really pump it up

225. if you wanna stay in the competition.

226. This week is great, because it's RuPaulapalooza.

227. We're performing RuPaul songs in front of RuPaul.

228. I'm doing Sissy That Walk.

229. I'm giving a drill sergeant vibe

230. and being unapologetically confident.

231. I've been so in my head about not being a fool,

232. because I feel embarrassed.

233. And so tonight, I'm trying to focus on staying uninhibited.

234. Thirsty Von Trap.

235. All right, let's go to our judges.

236. So what I loved about the group performance

237. is I zoned in on you

238. knowing that you were leaning into your character.

239. I could almost see you looking at me,

240. going, see, bitch? I'm leaning into it.

241. I want that extra ish,

242. because you are on the precipice.

243. Tonight, there was a moment in your solo performance

244. when you just smiled when you were sissying that walk,

245. and you looked like the pop star I know you are.

246. Thank you.

247. It's been amazing watching you grow.

248. But is it a little too late?

249. How did it feel on stage tonight?

250. Sissy That Walk is symbolic of standing in one's power,

251. and I wanted to pay homage to that.

252. But it is troubling sometimes,

253. getting the same critiques every week.

254. So I feel that—

255. Oh, my God, I'm not gonna cry.

256. I'm just interested in what it actually is

257. that's holding you back.

258. I mean, I'm afraid of being embarrassed.

259. It's really, really hard.

260. There is a little child who lives inside of you

261. who wants to say, "Let it all hang out."

262. Start a conversation,

263. and that is where the breakthrough will happen.

264. All right? Now, sissy that walk, girl.

265. Give it up for Thirsty Von Trap!

266. Up next, she's the head bitch in charge.

267. It's Chakra 7. Take a look.

268. Tatyana Ali!

269. I started off telling stories

270. that were really personal to me,

271. and then last week I really wanted to bring some humor.

272. Sometimes, drag, it's about the over ridiculousness,

273. and you gave us the drag of it all.

274. This week, it's important that I take it a step further.

275. - This week— - Whew.

276. I am doing Cha Cha Bitch.

277. Oh, werk. Okay!

278. So it's, like, fierce and funny.

279. We're taking things you've done before

280. and just smashing them together.

281. In other weeks, we've done hip hop.

282. Wah. There you go.

283. We played a little bit with, like, ballet arms

284. and things like that.

285. This one is totally different.

286. - Like, go over over the top. - Yeah, okay.

287. Like telenovela times 10.

288. These moves are difficult,

289. because they have a certain swag and vibe to them.

290. I don't wanna fuck it up.

291. Commence shakedown.

292. Ain't no party like a Cha Cha party,

293. 'cause a Cha Cha party go oh, oh.

294. Oh!

295. Five, six, Cha Cha, bitch.

296. The Westminster Dog Show ain't got nothin' on you!

297. Tonight in the group,

298. you were so fully committed to the performance,

299. and you were going overboard, and that's what we need in drag.

300. I'm so proud of you, Chakra.

301. Thank you.

302. You are marrying all the bits of you that are an artist

303. and bringing it into drag and it's working.

304. You know,

305. I think this is the most beautiful you've looked,

306. and you did my song justice.

307. - Oh! - How are you feeling?

308. That confidence that I told you guys about before,

309. like kind of being unsure, like, I feel it melting away.

310. Give it up for Chakra 7.

311. Up next, due to the fact

312. that her thighs spread just like Chic-Li-Fay.

313. Take a look.

314. Hi, Kevin.

315. Kevin!

316. - Hi. - How are you?

317. So let's talk about last week. That was fun.

318. Love that you played it kind of—

319. I hate to use the word, but you played it straight.

320. It was great, and we've never seen

321. that side of you before really.

322. Now, I'm really trying to just let go.

323. Now we move forward into this week,

324. and it is RuPaulapalooza.

325. Yes, all the Ru.

326. This week, I'm doing RuPaul's classic hit Peanut Butter.

327. Oh, yes! The best one.

328. It's going to be the opposite of last week.

329. It's going to be so much fun.

330. - We're going back to whore. - Well, Ru does love a whore.

331. We've shown all these sides of Chic,

332. Now we can just lay into having fun.

333. I'm selling peanuts to some hot dancers.

334. I hope nobody has an allergy.

335. Someone will have to stick them with their EpiPen.

336. - Ooh! - Yes.

337. We've had cookies, we've had goodies,

338. now we're having peanuts.

339. Game on.

340. Peanuts! Get your hot peanuts here!

341. Oh, yes, honey.

342. Due to the fact that her thighs spread just like—

343. Oh, yes, honey.

344. First of all, you got to do what you love to do this week,

345. was with, you know, your comedy.

346. But I think in the beginning of this competition,

347. you used it as almost an excuse.

348. And now you get to do it as part of your act,

349. and we are all in it with you, and that's what it's about.

350. I'm so proud of you.

351. I can imagine how scary this was to do,

352. and you are knocking it out of the ballpark.

353. You made me do something I haven't done in 20 years,

354. which is turn my head that way.

355. All right, now, Chic-Li-Fay, serious question.

356. What does the song Peanut Butter mean to you?

357. RuPaul is all about self-acceptance and love,

358. and that's awesome.

359. Also, be a ho at 3 A.M.

360. All right, y'all, let's give it up

361. for the nutty professor, Chic-Li-Fay.

362. We're in for a hell of a good time.

363. It's Poppy Love. Take a look.

364. I'm giving you jazz hands.

365. Poppy Love, come here, gimme some love.

366. - Oh, mama! - Oh!

367. - Congratulations. - Thank you.

368. We made it through another week.

369. Thankfully, everything went flawlessly,

370. and now that I've been revealed, I think I need to really try

371. to incorporate even more of myself into Poppy.

372. - This week is huge. - Yes.

373. I will be performing to The Devil Made Me Do It.

374. The song is just basically, like,

375. purging that devil out of you.

376. This song really hits home for me.

377. Being sober and being in recovery for over 20-plus years,

378. this is a very empowering performance.

379. There you go.

380. Even though the performance is a little sexy.

381. When you're down here on the floor,

382. - make that even bigger. - Okay.

383. Be extra, like...

384. and maybe, like, add that campy drag aspect to it.

385. I really wanna, like, purge my demons tonight.

386. This is gonna be a really fun but emotional performance.

387. Poppy Love, my goodness.

388. Thank you very much

389. for getting some Backstreet Boys choreography in, too.

390. - You're welcome.

391. My note that I wrote was, "So good.

392. Just tell your face that it's okay to express."

393. And in this number, you did it tonight. Yes.

394. There were a couple moments in the group performance

395. where I could see the mechanics working a little bit,

396. and, like, the effervescence wasn't there.

397. But when it came to this performance,

398. you were having none of that.

399. Thanks.

400. You amaze me every single week you come out here.

401. Thank you.

402. What does the song mean to you?

403. I'm gonna try not to get emotional,

404. but this song really meant a lot to me,

405. because I've been battling drugs and alcohol for over 20 years,

406. and this to me is about letting that go,

407. and I'm so glad I got to do it on this stage.

408. I love that.

409. Give it up for Poppy Love.

410. Last, but not beast,

411. maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Donna Bellissima.

412. Take a look.

413. Coming in on the sin wagon, girl!

414. You smell like a winner.

415. I have been spending my whole life

416. struggling with body acceptance, but last week was so much fun.

417. Donna Bellissima, you're a winner, baby.

418. It's a whole new me,

419. and I am so happy to have a win finally in this competition.

420. I'm stoked, but I came here to win the whole thing.

421. Oh, okay, okay.

422. She's got work to do. I got work to do.

423. It is the RuPaulapalooza.

424. I wanted to do Born Naked.

425. I wanna sell the song with the lip sync.

426. Yes.

427. I feel like last week I proved I could dance,

428. so I don't wanna dance at all this week.

429. I'm serving you plus-size goddess.

430. This is risky, right?

431. If I'm gonna take a risk at any point in the competition,

432. it's now, because I just proved that I can high energy dance.

433. Right, but it's also gonna be all here and face.

434. Without risk, there's no reward,

435. and I think the stillness has power.

436. It would have been such a cool image

437. to see you coming down and doing—

438. and you being the top of the pyramid

439. for this clapping thing.

440. But I feel like I don't wanna— less is more.

441. I'm taking a risk.

442. I saw kind of mixed reviews in people's faces,

443. but I don't think they see the full concept.

444. I think it's gonna look really crazy fierce.

445. Donna Bellissima!

446. You know, Donna, your stage presence is undeniable,

447. but I'm not gonna lie.

448. I would have liked to have seen you do something,

449. come down for a minute,

450. just because you are such a presence on stage.

451. And also, the lack of shoes threw me off a little bit,

452. because what happens is there's an illusion,

453. but the illusion is still that we see your feet in tights,

454. so that would have just changed it a little bit.

455. I thought in the group number you were the powerhouse.

456. I kept turning to you.

457. And in the solo performance,

458. I loved that you chose this song,

459. because this song says so much about what we're all doing here.

460. I don't want something, anything to gate-keep me

461. from being able to practice this art form.

462. Well, it was a risk, though, in this competition,

463. because there were some spectacles

464. on that stage tonight.

465. I just tried something different.

466. Your breast is showing.

467. I think this is the most glamorous

468. you've been in this competition.

469. I knew it was a risk, but, like, the zhuzh was there,

470. and I just felt like just go in there confident,

471. and do justice to this, like, awesome song.

472. All right, give it up for Donna Bellissima!

473. Welcome back, queens.

474. Based on your group and solo performances,

475. I've made some decisions.

476. Chakra 7, tonight you did it nice and ruff.

477. Chakra 7, con-drag-ulations.

478. You're the winner of this week's challenge.

479. Is there anything you'd like to say?

480. Um... thank you,

481. and thanks to everybody backstage

482. that helped— made all that happen.

483. It takes a village, people!

484. Chic-Li-Fay, you are safe.

485. You better werk, chicken!

486. Now, you may both leave the stage.

487. Poppy Love.

488. Tonight your pussy was on fire and brimstone.

489. You are safe.

490. You may leave the stage.

491. Thirsty Von Trap.

492. Donna Bellissima.

493. I'm sorry, my dears, but you are both up for elimination.

494. Two beautiful queens stand before me.

495. I've consulted with the judges,

496. but the final decision is mine to make.

497. Prior to tonight you were asked to prepare

498. a lip sync performance of U Wear It Well by Mama Ru.

499. This is your last chance to impress me

500. and save yourself from elimination!

501. The time has come

502. for you to lip sync

503. for your life!

504. Good luck, and don't fuck it up.

505. Ladies, I've made my decision.

506. Thirsty Von Trap, shantay you stay.

507. Con-drag-ulations. You may leave the stage.

508. Donna Bellissima.

509. you are and will always be Drag Race royalty.

510. And, Daniel, you've come a long way, baby.

511. Let's take a look.

512. Finding Donna has been so exciting and exhilarating

513. and so rewarding in a way that I didn't expect.

514. I just did my first run-through on the main stage,

515. and I'm feeling so fabulous.

516. This is really fun.

517. It's fun to recreate a persona

518. after you've been somebody for so long.

519. There's definitely a sense of power when I'm in drag

520. that I did not anticipate having.

521. Yes! Yes!

522. That was so good!

523. - That's it. - That's it.

524. I get to represent my culture in a really fun way,

525. and to tell a story with my drag queen.

526. - Ooh!

527. With Donna, I have a whole new body.

528. The strength that you get from that new body,

529. it's empowering in different ways.

530. Yes! Go on, look at that booty!

531. I'm looking forward to what Mama Ru says,

532. that the power that I have in drag

533. is able to be accessed outside of drag.

534. That's something that I really can't wait to see

535. what the future holds.

536. I hope that this show isn't the end of Donna Bellissima,

537. and, look, if they call me

538. and they wanna hire Donna Bellissima,

539. Donna Bellissima's gonna show up.

540. Daniel Franzese, is there anything you'd like to say?

541. This was such an incredible experience

542. and absolutely so much fun.

543. And I guess I'll have new fans of Donna Bellissima, and—

544. To them, I just wanna say olive oil you.

545. Well, thanks to Donna Bellissima,

546. your charity, The Trevor Project,

547. will receive a donation of $5.000.

548. May the power of drag be with you always.

549. Next week, four queens compete in the semi-finals,

550. as the battle for the crown continues.

551. Until then, remember, if you can't love yourself,

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

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

554. - Amen! - Amen!

555. All right. Now let the music play!

556. Next time on RuPaul's Secret Celebrity Drag Race...

557. Tonight, category is Yes, Gaga!

558. This week is more about getting dirty and raw.

559. It's that moment to express myself

560. as both AJ and Poppy.

561. Now that we're revealed,

562. I wanna keep pushing to do what scares Kevin.

563. This week is even harder,

564. because we're so close to the finale.

565. In addition to your solo lip sync performances,

566. you'll all be playing...

567. The Snatch Game!
