Original subtitles

Previously on the season

ofRuPaul's Drag Race Vegas Revue...

The show literally opens tomorrow,

and I don't have this yet.

I can't [bleep] up.

Bitches, turn this [bleep] out.

This is the biggest opening I've ever been a part of.

Something's gonna [bleep] up tonight.

I don't know what you want from me.

I don't want you to be such a bitch.

Oh.

What drama's going on backstage?

Here's the thing, Naomi.

If you don't like me, I don't really care.

Go brush your hair, bitch.

Go brush your hair.

I just want to meet somebody.

You know, it gets a little bit lonely out here.

I'm dying to know. Are you in a relationship?

Not anymore! [all laugh]

I don't know how I'm gonna find anyone for Vanjie.

I like hanging out with her, I like being around her.

Do you see where this is going?

Whoa.

Kameron!

I dare you to kiss Vanjie.

Oh!

Aah!

[laughs]

-Whoo! -Aah!

[laughs]

I didn't say she was the weakest link.

-I think you did. -It's hurtful that Naomi

wouldn't just come to me and talk to me about it.

I'm gonna go.

-No, Asia. -I'm gonna go.

[sobs] It's emotionally exhausting

trying to convince people to see what I see.

Asia moved out of the dressing room?

I think we found another room upstairs.

I think we're past the point of immature now.

All of drag is depending on us.

Come take a bite out of this Big Apple.

Performing is what I do. It's what I'm best at.

I'm known for being the instigator

and the [bleep] stirrer.

I'm known for being at 10 all the time.

Drag queens will be the new rock stars.

♪ Whaa, da-da-da-da ♪

[singing with deep voice]

I really wanna make a metal song.

I've decided it.

[all laugh]

Oh, man.

So...

[laughs]

What, bitch?

Well, last night was fun, right?

Yeah, it was cute.

Yeah, which part of Kameron was the cutest?

[all laugh]

I've been working on helping Vanjie find love,

and last night it happened.

-Oh! -Aah!

[laughs]

So she should be thanking me.

Now the sparks are flying,

and I feel like this could actually go somewhere.

So last night was a night.

[laughs]

I guess that's what you learn

by telling secrets to Derrick Barry.

Tea. [both laugh]

I dare you to kiss Vanjie.

[all laugh]

But, I mean, it was cute, I guess,

that Derrick did that, because I don't know

if I would have been brave enough to do it on my own.

What are you so scared of?

I just don't--

I don't approach-- I don't talk to boys.

If I tell a boy I find him attractive,

like, it just never goes well.

I think deep down, like, the cause of my shyness

is just a bad childhood.

And some people never recover from that,

and they are affected the rest of their lives.

I'm happy, I'm confident now,

but certain situations,

I still feel like that kid that got bullied.

I wasn't ever physically assaulted,

but I definitely was made fun of all the time.

I mean, relentlessly.

I sat alone at lunch or I didn't even go to lunch.

That was my, like, senior year.

I sat by myself and ate lunch.

I wasn't out, but I think you can tell.

I couldn't really hide it.

So, yeah, people would call me names,

people would start rumors about me or things like that,

and, you know, it was hurtful.

Are you guys gonna go out,

like, on a date and, like, test this?

I think we should.

Have you dated a drag queen before?

I've never been in a relationship with one.

But I don't have a problem--

like, some girls, they will not date other queens.

Spoiler alert: it doesn't really work out.

But you never know in your case.

Yeah.

I was initially completely shocked,

because that's a lot to deal with at work.

I've dated, you know...

You've dated someone--

People--yeah, and--

-Hi, Papi. -Hi.

How are you?

Good.

So this time you're trying to take it to new heights.

-No pun intended? -[laughs]

Moving on up, bitches, moving on up.

It's like I want--

I mean, that'd be amazing to have it to work.

He lives in LA already, and we do Vegas.

I'm optimistic, I'm open, and I'm open minded,

open mouthed, and open legs and open arms.

[tongue pop]

Having Brett here was great.

-Mm, I love you. -I love you.

I beat you!

But he's gone back home,

and I am here in Vegas by myself.

By myself.

My relationships with everyone,

everything is exactly how it has been.

I can't be myself in the dressing room

with the other girls.

Why are you gonna get ready next to the stage?

Because I'm negative and nobody wants to get ready with me.

And that's not fair.

I don't want anybody to feel like

they can't come to their job

and get in drag, like, in their space.

Out of probably all the people in the cast,

Naomi's the last person

I expected to be going through this with.

So I'm gonna continue to get ready by myself,

or I won't be here.

All of this makes me wonder do I even belong here?

Should I just be back home in Texas

working on things by myself?

[knock on door]

-Come in! -Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Hey.

The trouble backstage is not good.

If there's a rift, if there's--

I don't care who it is, you can feel it.

People can feel the energy is different.

And I get fearful that it will start to affect our castmates,

affect the dancers, affect the crew.

-This is nice. -Thank you.

Like, this has even made it to Randy.

And I also know that Ru knows about it,

and he's asked me to come in and talk to the girls.

So, yeah, it's gotta happen.

What's going on?

Well, actually, this nice place

is the reason why I'm here.

-Uh... -Here we go.

Well, the concept of working with Ru

for me has always been about love.

And I feel like everybody getting dressed together

is a part of, you know, y'all's bond that you have.

I cannot--I'm not getting ready with the girls.

I don't need to be in here.

Like, I can literally get ready in a broom closet.

I just need to get ready by myself.

I'm just going off of, like, the information that I got.

The girls didn't wanna get ready around me because I'm negative.

I can't imagine

that this can't be rectified with just a conversation.

Will you give me that opportunity?

I understand and appreciate Jamal's need

for us to have a kumbaya moment and come together.

Naomi, can I talk to you for a second?

You absolutely can.

-Could I talk to you? -Yeah.

All right, cool.

Oh, you're going to detention.

But I don't think anybody else

understands the situation but me.

Have a seat.

To know that one of my closest friends in this show

has been going around telling other people that I'm negative

and that she doesn't wanna get ready

in the dressing room with me, um...

that hurts.

I haven't done anything to any of these girls.

So this is really important,

and to hear that there is some sort of division,

it broke my heart.

But I think we could heal through a conversation.

I just want it to be clear.

I came to Derrick voicing my emotions.

I never wanted it to get as drastic as, like,

us completely separating from each other.

But I honestly tried to do it prior to anyone being here,

so it wasn't, like, awkward for anyone.

And it's, like, what I don't understand

is so-and-so doesn't wanna be in a dressing room with you

because you're negative.

Okay, well, I'll get my stuff and leave.

Well, now, like, okay, well, Asia left the dressing room.

Okay, well, what was I supposed to do?

What was the appropriate way for me to react?

I totally understand,

like, where you're coming from in that sense.

I just think that

we didn't have an opportunity to really discuss it

and, like, grow from it in our dressing room,

and I wish that we did have that.

Yeah.

I did think that we, you know,

had an open line of communication.

But I do realize

that that is something that I need to work on.

Maybe my communication skills are not what they should be.

Sometimes I'm mad about something.

It's about me.

Like, it's not about, like, other people.

I am interested in making sure

that I'm on the same page with Naomi.

I'm sorry.

I don't think there was any malice in your intention.

I don't feel the same way about Derrick.

Derrick, if you were trying to help a friend,

I feel like you could have came to me

and been, like, girl, we gotta figure that out.

And it's just, like, literally

the way that it was done, it was mean to me.

Like, it just felt mean.

By you saying that Naomi was the weakest link team member,

that was maybe the weakest link,

I just would like to know what you meant.

She was not comfortable getting ready here,

and I wanted to find out what the problem was.

That had nothing to do with you.

I'm literally minding my own business,

like, literally.

No, this isn't better

because you're only saying, "Like, literally."

-Literally-- -Like, literally.

Like, literally. Like, literally.

Like, literally. But, like, literally.

Like, literally--

Instead of taking any accountability,

it's too hard for you to say, "Is this me?"

My feelings were hurt

because I felt like I thought Naomi could have--

we could have had the conversation we didn't.

But, like, the way you spoke to me

was, in my opinion, malicious.

I honestly feel one of Derrick's favorite pastimes

is calling out the flaws of other people.

I saw it turn in him.

He was, like, "I'm gonna get that bitch."

The way that you brought that up to me is the reason that I left.

But you can't just run away from a situation.

And it resulted in Randy talking to all of us,

and now Jamal talking to all of us.

You know, when you fight with your brother or sister,

you don't move into the kitchen.

I'm entitled to be upset by how I was treated.

I'm a human.

You can't make me be okay with how I'm treated.

That's not how things work.

Any time somebody divides themself,

it does cause separation.

Then the next time somebody else has a problem,

they're gonna leave.

And then somebody else is gonna leave,

and before you know it, the show goes down.

And that's what I'm worried about,

is just the integrity of the show, that's it.

And I know that Derrick was caught in the crossfire,

you know, trying to help a friend.

There's still some stuff in the air,

you know, but I'm glad that y'all talked.

We're taking baby steps

to getting the sisterhood back together again.

There we go, there we go.

-Mm! -Mm.

Have a good show. Thank you.

This isn't better. It's not fixed.

There's no resolution.

We are supposed to feel like sisters,

but Asia doesn't apologize.

It's unnecessary, it's selfish,

and I'm kind of tired of talking about Asia.

Coming up...

-Hi. -Hi.

How are you? Cheers.

I'm just trying to see what kind of chemistry happens.

-Oh! Bartender! -[laughs]

I finally found the nerve somewhere.

I don't have a lot of nerve, but I found it.

And I text Vanjie and asked if she wanted to go on a date.

She said yes.

Bitch, so listen, let me tell you some news.

Somebody in particular from the cast

came up to me and told me a little tea.

Somebody's trying to date me.

Kameron.

Kameron Michaels?

Ooh! That's why I called you,

because I knew you knew the tea.

Brooke Lynn Hytes situation, no more come-ups.

No, ma'am.

We supposed to go on a date tonight.

We supposed--oh.

The phone's cutting out. I think it's for a reason.

People will try to warn me,

but I'm trying, you know what I'm saying?

Don't kill me because the bitch tried.

The worst thing that's gonna happen is it doesn't work out,

you go home, be sad for the day,

watch a few movies, The Notebook again.

I have it on replay.

And then go about your business

and come here in the interview, cry again.

I'm single. Let's go on another date.

I got the formula down, honey.

I'm not sure how tonight is going to go,

but as I get older, it's like don't miss out on opportunities

because you're scared

or because you don't know how things are gonna go.

It's just a date. At least you tried.

-Hi. -Hi.

-How are you? -Mm, good.

He looks really cute.

I have something fun planned. Let's go.

The High Roller is really cool, because...

It's this huge, circular observatory

that goes up I think as high as some of the hotels in Vegas,

so you can literally see for miles.

Cheers. Boom!

Which way I'm going?

Oh, Lord. Oh!

♪ Is it desire? ♪

♪ Gonna raise emotion or feelings for you ♪

Even though romantic dates seem to not go well for me,

I planned something really kind of romantic and cool and fun.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

[ring]

How may I help you?

Yes, I need a few drinks sent up, please.

I don't know how you're gonna do it, but we need it done.

High Roller, rolling out.

How do I turn you off?

I'm just trying to see what kind of chemistry happens.

The neutrons and electrons

and the park patrol-- patrone--patrons--

Oh, bitch, I'm trying to lose weight now.

What do you weigh?

I don't even know.

I know a lot of it's my head.

[laughs]

Yeah, they used to call me "bobble-head."

They called you bobble-head?

Mm-hmm.

Because you had a big head?

Yeah, but now I think it's--

Did you have to grow into your head?

Yeah, mm-hmm.

I think I tend to gravitate towards bigger personalities

because I need a lot of energy to pull me out of my shell.

Bartender! Bartender!

And also at the same time, I think my chill vibe

brings big personalities down a couple notches.

Like, this is the moment when we get to sit down,

talk, get to know each other.

Things that I don't know about José, not Vanjie.

Did your mom have fun while she was here?

She did.

She was just gambling all day.

-Your mom gambles? -Mm-hmm.

-Do you gamble? -Nope.

-No? -Mm-mmm.

I have no interest.

Yeah, I'm not...

Yeah, I'm not about to be gambling.

That [bleep] ain't fun for me.

I like my money in my bank account.

I know Kameron, and I know he's not real talkative.

I know how he is.

But any time there's awkward silence,

I get, like, the nervous smile.

Yeah, I just am not good with that stuff.

-Yeah, you know-- -What's your favorite food?

I like pizza.

Pizza's your favorite food?

Mm, yeah.

Okay.

We're talking about what our favorite foods are.

[tongue pop]

My go-tos are Mexican, Spanish,

and then any kind of Asian food, like Chinese.

If I'm talking about favorite food,

that means the banana is not coming into the doughnut.

Certain situations, I still am shy.

That's just who I am.

So what's the tea?

Like, the Asia situation, and all the other girls.

So Miss Kameron "Silent" Michaels,

if he ain't gonna talk,

I'll end up trying to start up some [bleep],

[bleep] that I really don't wanna talk about at a date.

Oh, like, all the drama?

How the [bleep] do you stay out of it?

You're friends with both of them,

and really close with, like, Asia.

Um...

I just, like, no matter who it is,

if there's drama, that has nothing to do with me.

Let them hash it out.

Okay.

So here we are, talking about work.

I don't know, I thought the Eiffel Tower was a good idea.

Now I got this bright idea that this pod was a good idea.

Maybe I'm just full of bad ideas,

because this isn't going like I thought it was gonna go.

Are you hungry?

Yeah.

The old me would get so discouraged,

but there's just not enough there

to connect on a deeper level.

But it's okay. You can still be friends with somebody.

You can still hang out with them.

At least we explored something, and now we know.

So what do you want on your pizza?

Cheese.

-Just cheese? -Yeah.

Like, sometimes I'll eat, like, vegetables--

No. Cheese pizza.

If I had to sum it up in one word...

[tongue pop]

Don't date your friends.

New York declared a state of emergency today,

and they're shutting down Broadway.

What do you think's gonna happen to Vegas?

Not sure what this means

for the future of RuPaul's Drag Race Live.

Coronavirus cases are on the rise here in the U.S.

Health officials warn that it can spread at alarming rates,

and as information continues to come in,

some cities are looking towards measures

like shelter-in-place to slow the spread.

So whose family members are freaking out right now?

New York declared a state of emergency today,

and they're shutting down Broadway.

If Broadway is closing down,

then what do you think's gonna happen to Vegas?

We've been hearing more and more about this coronavirus,

and it's starting to get a little scary.

It feels like just a few weeks ago everything was normal,

and now we have this pandemic around us.

Girl, we, like, just got this [bleep] off the ground,

we just put all of our eggs into this basket.

Bitch, I'm gonna be-- can you imagine?

They're gonna shut us down, I'm gonna be at home

and quarantined and be single?

Bitch...

Well, why do you have to be single in your room?

-You did? -Wait, what?

-Spill. -Wait, Vanjie, the date?

-Oh, my God. -But how was it, though?

Well, the problem was there was just not chemistry.

-Huh? Nothing? -Wow.

Nothing, girl. Zip.

Really?

I know he's shy, and I'm not expecting him

to be sitting there reading me knock-knock jokes,

but you have to make an effort.

There's only so much-- I can't save the date.

Well, does he make you laugh?

Does he make you laugh?

[all laugh]

Oh, [bleep]!

The honest tea is that I didn't see it.

And just because you're both looking for the same thing

doesn't mean you're gonna get it out of each other.

Oh, man.

But it's okay, you know.

We gave it a try. We're friends.

Where's my hand sanitizer? Come on.

All we can do is just, like, wash our hands

and try not to make out with strangers. [laughs]

The scariest thing for me would be to see the Strip shut down,

because I've just never seen that.

Never seen it, like, without lights.

-Yeah. -You have 45 minutes.

45-minute call, please.

Now it's so uncertain where we're headed,

and I hate that feeling.

My relationship with Asia is not getting better,

and I don't feel like she's even trying to fix anything.

And now we have this virus

that could potentially shut down our whole show.

Thank you!

I'm just going to focus on the one thing

that I know brings me happiness.

RuPaul: And now, Derrick Barry.

[cheers and applause]

Being on stage.

It's Britney, bitch.

Casinos in Las Vegas tonight have shut their doors.

Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak

asked every casino and nonessential business

in the state to close for the next 30 days.

It's Saturday, March 14,

and we got the news today

that we are shutting the show down

for who knows how long.

We just did our last show.

It was weird tonight.

The audience was so good. There were so many people here.

But we just can't keep working when people are this scared.

We are all headed home,

and I'm not sure what this means

for the future of RuPaul's Drag Race Live.

But hopefully we see you guys again.

Definitely feels very weird

to only be open for six weeks,

and then close for who knows how long.

I'm gonna miss the girls, I'm gonna miss this cast,

and I'll see you guys soon.

Coming up...

Quarantine day number...

I don't even know.

Right now, the world is on a standstill.

Everybody's at home on lockdown.

Everything's different.

Nothing is normal anymore,

and nothing is the way that it used to be.

The entire Las Vegas strip hadn't shut down

since the JFK assassination,

and now it's a daily occurrence.

Possible projected losses for the city

are now at $40 billion,

as it's unclear when normalcy will return.

Unfortunately, the Vegas show is on hold during the pandemic.

Quarantine day number...

I don't even know.

Right now, the world is on a standstill.

Everybody's at home on lockdown.

Everything's different.

Going to the grocery store is different now.

Going on a run and having a mask on.

Nothing is normal anymore,

and nothing is the way that it used to be.

Well, I guess it's time for me to finally unpack from Vegas.

Because I thought I'd be back, like, a couple weeks into April,

and here we are.

I'm still here.

So I went from working five nights a week in Vegas,

like, seeing my sisters, seeing the dancers.

And now, it's a lot different and it's gotten really hard,

and I don't know how much longer this is gonna be this way.

Coronavirus has definitely affected our wedding plans.

Right now, nobody knows how long it will be

before it's safe for our friends and family

to gather together in one building.

So as of right now, our wedding is on hold.

Love you guys.

I have to be honest and say that this has helped my home life,

because I'm home, and I get to see Nick and Mack every day.

If you can survive

hanging out with the same two people every day,

I think that says a lot about a relationship.

My boyfriend has been living with me this entire quarantine,

'cause his classes got canceled first thing.

So he's just kind of been here by my side,

annoying the [bleep] out of me

and making me love him that much more. [laughs]

I absolutely miss the Vegas show,

but I'm trying to make the most of it

and stay productive while trapped away in my LA apartment.

We're now working from home.

Hi, Robin. Hi, Carly.

Performances through a camera lens.

Well, I finally got my home studio set up.

That's what we're doing right now in quarantine.

♪ Oh, oh, yeah ♪

The quarantine's given me, like, even more time

to focus on producing and creating videos and photoshoots

and working even harder on my music career.

I came back to L.A.

Our landlord, she told me and Silky

we should move together because we would always be yelling

and getting noise complaints.

Silky!

Next thing I knew, I was moved in.

So the name of the podcast--

-Word on the Curb. -Word on the Curb.

It was good, it was good.

And you know, in the beginning,

we were not really being productive,

letting Miss Coronavirus lockdown get the best of us.

Like, bitch, I went crazy.

We both went crazy. ♪ Boop-boop-a-doo ♪

So were like, well, this is the perfect time.

We might as well jump on the ball and do something.

So, y'all, let me go ahead

and give y'all some hot, hot, hot tea.

You was going on a date in Vegas.

Miss Thing was going on a date with Miss Kameron Michaels.

Hi.

Well, you have-- you know, this is the thing.

I'm a firm believer if you don't open up to life,

how do you expect life to open up to you?

You know, we creating this podcast

to talk about some real hard topics out there

that's going on in the world right now,

something that matters to everybody,

something that everybody could relate to:

boys and [bleep].

I think with Kameron and he's...

you know, he quiet, introverted.

Too quiet for you.

I want somebody that's gonna make me laugh, that's funny.

Here's the story.

There ain't no story. The end.

We're good friends, I see him on social media.

That's about it.

So we could sit here, drink, talk about it together,

and find out what's the word on the curb.

But you know what?

I'm glad we in quarantine together.

[both laugh]

Coming up...

Aw, look at all your faces.

I feel obligated to say something to Asia right now.

I'm not really sure how to put this.

The U.S. is seeing its largest number of new infections

since the pandemic began in March.

Many of the country's larger states are overwhelmed,

postponing any immediate hopes of a reopening.

Hi, guys. I wanted to get everyone together

because it's been so long. How is everyone?

-Hello. -Lovely.

Hi.

It's been three months

since we've been quarantined at home,

and what I thought was gonna be a two-week break

turned out to be so much longer.

Look at all your faces.

I know. It's crazy to do this remote.

It's weird that we're not all together.

But at least we're all safe in our own homes, which is good.

I know that the drama between Asia and Derrick

was not resolved when we left Vegas,

so I am super surprised that Asia is on this Zoom call,

considering Derrick called it.

Are you guys all staying healthy?

I just got my test last week.

Your bitch is corona free

because she's been washing her hands.

-I got tested twice. -Vanj?

I went to the dentist,

and I had to get tested before I went.

I was good.

And that [bleep] hurt a lot, and I have learned out--

or found out I have high blood pressure.

[all laugh] Oh, my God, same!

Vanjie having high blood pressure?

No, I can't imagine.

Aah! Aah! Aah!

[all laugh] [bleep].

I'm not sure how everyone was dealing

with the Black Lives Matter movement.

Yeah, I definitely think, like,

the Black Lives Matter movement has taught a lot of people

that there are tons of different ways to be involved

and be not just reactive, but proactive.

I think, like, taking masks

and water and supplies to the protests

was, like, kind of like a nice way to be part of the issue.

I think it's important

to show your support in any way you possibly can.

Black people are fighting an uphill battle,

and we're starting the race

where everyone else has a 400-year head start.

And that's just the truth of the matter,

particularly in this country.

That 400-year head start is not going away.

But what we can do as a group and as a whole

and as a country and as a society,

we can work together

to make the next thousand years better for everybody.

I think racism is just something

that's unfortunately gonna be around for a very long time.

I mean, you see George Floyd, it's crazy.

Like, the cops just decided that, you know what?

You're not worth it.

That's disgusting.

Being Black in America does give you a different quality of life,

often a way [bleep] one.

So I went out to, like, some of the protests,

but I've also been protesting online,

I've been protesting in my friend group.

For some perspective, I'm the grandson of the leader

of the Black Panther Party's movement in Denver,

Lauren Watson. Rest in power.

And it's always been

a very, very important part of my family's identity

to be vocal about the mistreatment

and the inequality of Blacks in America.

And I've experienced so much racism in my life,

whether subliminally or subtly or on a grand, massive,

like, calling me the N-word in broad daylight scale

that I'm pissed

we're still fighting this same [bleep] movement.

No one should live in a life

where anyone is treated any better

because of the way that they were born.

Right.

It's given me a little bit of hope that--

to see, like, how much

everyone's kind of coming together

and sharing all, like, a bunch of petitions

and, you know, just being active and speaking out.

Absolutely.

Asia, one thing I was noticing

was the masks that you were making.

And I even-- I'm a proud customer.

I got the ruby slipper one.

So I just wanna personally say thank you for taking time out

and not thinking about what do I wanna do right now,

but how can I actually help?

I don't know if this is the right time, in a group call,

but I feel obligated to say something to Asia right now,

because if I don't say it now,

I don't know when I'm gonna say it.

I may be--

I'm not really sure how to put this.

So since the show closed,

I know I've had 24 hours a day with my thoughts.

I feel obligated to say something to Asia right now,

because if I don't say it now,

I don't know when I'm gonna say it.

I know one thing for me is

because I don't have a perfect relationship with my mom,

it's really hard to be in a new group of people.

I think I put so much pressure on myself to--

I wanna get along with everyone,

I want everyone to like me.

But maybe I didn't leave off

on the best terms with you, Asia.

I know everyone else, I feel like I'm pretty good with.

And there just wasn't really ever a resolution.

I may have stirred the pot or said too much

when I shouldn't have said anything at all.

But I just hope that you know

that I have always valued you as a performer,

as a person, as a friend.

I still haven't been able to connect with my mom,

and I don't want my relationship with Asia

to be anything like my relationship with my mom.

I wanna make sure that I keep this family together.

I really do wish that after our conversation with Jamal,

that we could have had some more resolution.

Uh...

You know, um...

Yeah, I definitely think this whole pandemic thing

has reminded me, like, what things are important

and what things are not.

One thing I've learned about myself

is I'm never afraid to, like, fight

or get into it with people that I consider my family,

because I think I know subconsciously

that there's always gonna be an opportunity for resolution

or an opportunity to make up...

-Yeah. -...at its core,

like, what it means to be sisters

or be family with someone.

Especially when it's chosen families,

you take the good and you take the bad,

and there's gonna be ups and downs

and fights and laughter and crying and all of that.

But at the end of the day,

you're still sisters, you're still family.

So I'm very happy to move forward

with you as my sister and as my friend.

Well, good. I feel better.

I mean, Derrick and I's friendship, our connection,

our relationship, we just threw it away.

We just tossed it away because why not?

And now, you know, people-- literally, people are dying.

Literally, people are losing their jobs, their homes.

We've been reminded of the things that we take for granted.

[all laugh] Okay, wait.

[all laugh]

That was, like, good enough.

Oh, my God.

Now y'all bitches wanna make up

that we out of mother [bleep] work?

[bleep] both of y'all. [laughs]

I'm so over it!

I missed--just, like, I feel like I kind of took for granted

how much we got to, like, hang out and really--

you know, the importance of, like,

just us all kiki-ing and stuff.

You know what I miss more than anything?

There's just this moment in the show where it would go silent,

and you'd just hear...

[cheers and applause]

[laughs]

Whoo!

Oh, it's like we were there again!

Make me miss y'all even more now.

I know. I love that dance.

What if that's the last time we got to do it?

Ugh, see, now we planned this, and it [bleep] me up.

Now I'm all sad.

I mean, I've been taking the time

to, like, reflect and, like, really think.

Yeah, I miss the show, basically, was...yeah.

I'm an interactive person.

I like to hug, kiss, feel people's energy,

and there's only so much energy

you could feel through the screen.

I'm just trying to stay hopeful

that we can get back to that dynamic,

'cause I really did have so much fun in Vegas.

I really miss these queens.

I never thought I was going to say goodbye to that stage.

It's really depressing, and I just wanna get back there,

because it was such an amazing show.

Aw.

I'm hoping.

We don't know if it's ever coming back,

and it's depressing.

I've had multiple days

where I don't even get out of bed anymore.

I'm a performer.

I need to be onstage to exist in this universe.

Vegas felt like a little family

that I get to see every day when I go to work.

So I really need the show to come back soon.

I miss you ladies.

I miss you, too. Until next time.

-Be safe, you guys. -Hugs, hugs, hugs.

Love you guys.

[cheers and applause]

Aah! We're back, bitches!

You can't stop us, baby!

We're back! [laughs]

So excited we're going back to Vegas.

I have to get my wigs ready,

and I think I need to hit the treadmill.

Vegas is coming back. I'm gonna be back in Vegas.

Vegas is gonna be back inside of me, honey.

This is the best news ever.

2020 may have not been the best year,

but 2021 is where the fun has begun.

Y'all listen. God is good.

That's all we need to know.

We're going back to work,

and we're gonna do things right this time.

[cheers and applause]
