NICKY: I, Nicky Doll, was born
Karl Sanchez in Marseille.

I had to fight to show
to the society who I was.

Despite many
fights and injuries,

I knew I was destined
to do great things.

My dream came true,

Nicky Doll

during my selection
to the twelfth season

of RuPaul’s Drag Race
in the United States.

Today, it is time

to offer
this opportunity to others.

I’m looking for the next
great French drag queen.

Among the hundreds
of drag queens,

only ten have been selected

for this
exceptional competition.

Let the show begin!

NICKY: Who will be
the first French Queen to win

Drag Race France
and its prestigious awards?

Carré Y is proud to offer

a crystal crown and a scepter

worth €40.000.

Tinder offers
a one-week stay

for two in Mauritius,

to experience idyllic moments

in the shade of coconut trees

and recharge your batteries
on this paradise island.

MAC Cosmetics is pleased
to offer a year of products

to create all your
makeup cravings

and reveal the artist in you.

Welcome to the great stage
of Drag Race France!

Previously on
Drag Race France.

Hello, hello, hello.

[screaming]

We will celebrate
all facets of drag art

with a "talent show".

[laughing]

Hey!

Soa. Condragulations!

You’re this week's winner.

Yeah!

Lova.

Something was a little
complicated.

KIDDY: It was a "talent show".

And I didn’t really
see your talent.

La Kahena, tonight you brought
us your culture and your heart.

But we also sensed your fear.

shantay you stay.

La Kahena, sashay away.

[applauding]

AFTER THE ELIMINATION
OF LA KAHENA

Whew!

Oh my God!

The first return
to the workshop is really

LOVA: very,
very hard emotionally.

Oh!

Kisses. We’ll call each
other and let's make a raclette.

[laughing]

Bertha + Soa Crazy!

La Kahena.
It was a pleasure to meet you

and we will see each
other again very soon.

I’m sure of it.

[applauding]

And now it’s a big realization.

You think, yeah, all right.

But actually, camp’s over.

But anyway, no matter what,

we’re still gonna be
the sisters of season one,
girls.

Season one!

[screaming]

NICKY: In the jury this week,
Daphne Burki, Kiddy Smile,

and our guest of the week,
Marianne James

will be on our jury.

DRAG RACE FRANCE
THERE WILL BE ONLY ONE QUEEN

[gun sound with mouth]

One, two, three, four...

We drop the mission

Come on! Come on!

Buenos Dias. Ha ha ha!

[laughing]

I am super happy
to go back one more day

in the workshop.
It’s too much fun!

Condragulations Soa!

[applauding]

Okay, I won the maxi challenge.

I am happy, but I am
not sitting on the laurels.

No, no, no, I’m waiting
for the next one, you know?

Lova, how do you feel
after the lip sync?

It motivated me,
not to be down there, actually.

We won’t doubt Lova twice.

[cock song]

[screaming]

[cock song]

The rooster is calling.

We’re good in the competition.

We’re in an ejection seat,
so any slip...

[boom]

There is no more time to think,

as Mylène would say,
to swim against sense.

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

My queens, do you ever fake it?

Oh!

Let’s see! Happiness.

Anger.

Mystery.

Window.

Oh!

It’s the only thing I can do.

At a time, we’ve been training
our whole lives, haven’t we?

Here we are in the bathroom.

A bottle of perfume in hand,
receiving an award.

Thank you. Thank you, Jimmy.

I expected it, but maybe
one day it’ll be you.

Camera, "Draction"!

[screaming]

The actor challenge is for me.

Acting challenge
isn’t my best thing.

So let’s see,
let’s see what we’re offered.

Hello, hello, hello.

[screaming]

[screaming]

Oh my God!

Did you come on a motorcycle?
Tell me!

[laughing]

Yeah, I pictured him holding
the handlebars on his bike.

[engine sound]

I wanted to see the
machine personally.

I know participating in Drag
Race can be a little stressful

and you can easily...

[screaming]

-It’s better, isn’t it?
-Yes.

To ensure your
well-being and allow you

to let go of the pressure,
I suggest,

for this week’s mini challenge,

a little session
of Rock 'n' roll.

[screaming]

Well, this is R'n'B.

Ow, I’m in pain.

You have 20 minutes
to get into drag

and show us what
a rock star you are.

20 minutes to get into drag.

I was crying, I’m in good shape.

I do everything.

To accompany you
in these mini challenges,

we have invited some friends.

Oh the drag kings!

[screaming]

Finally, fuck!

I mean, it was in France
that we had to do it.

I say drag kings.

Meet some Kings stars.

Jesus La Vidange.

[screaming]

Juda La Vidange.

[screaming]

And Chico.

[screaming]

Thanks for coming
to mess with us.

So my queens.
You’re more like Tina Turner,

or Yvette Horner?

Oh fuck! Let’s go! Let’s go!

Here we go!

[screaming]

What am I doing here?
I’m a little crazy.

It’s too good to have Kings.

Really, so, so much.

It is a scene so rich

and often underrepresented
and even underestimated.

In fact, because we think
it’s just putting on a mustache

and a shirt when
it’s much more than that.

This is so important.

Drag kings are part
of the drag family.

It’s a little bit
of a race here, dudes.

Yeah, crazy!

The point is to be funny.

The point is not
to be beautiful.

That’s exactly what
I was expecting.

A mini challenge.

We can be ridiculous,

We’re gonna blow off
steam and light the fire.

Actually, as Johnny would say.

I’m gonna present

my first single:
A woman of the world,

with his B-side:
Feather in the ass.

Rock 'n' roll,

so not my image,
but in real life,

I find it so liberating
because it’s the kind

of moment where, in fact,

you can really
do whatever you want.

And this is an opportunity
to show Nicki

that I can be a little
crazier in my head.

Oh yes, I glue my wig
and I arrive.

No, take it easy, Bertha.

-Don’t hurt yourself.
-Thank you.

Not at all.

Oh!

Take it easy, Bertha!

Relax, relax, relax, relax!

I'm shitting myself.

I get into first gear and then I
go...

[crying]

Now I look very
clearly like nothing.

[laughing]

And in my head, it’s Stop!
You’re a rock star.

Show them.

Beetlejuice, Beetllejuice,
Beetlejuice.

Boom, she’s here!

DRAG RACE FRANCE MINI CHALLENGE:
ROCK' N' ROLL

Oh, I see Halloween came early!

[scary noise]

-Are you ready?
-Yes.

Inhale?

Howl?

[howling]

First, la Big Bertha.

[howling]

How are you kids?

Yeah. Wow!

Lean the guitar over.

Try the drums.
I’ll tune my bass.

One, two, three, four.

La Big Bertha is my sister
and she knows the subject.

After that, I’m a little scared
for the stage.

I heard him say,
Oh, it's hard

Paloma, it’s your turn.

But let’s make
a racket of all devils.

Just sing "Free the Nipple"

I don’t give a shit.

Oh yeah.

I liked that dress, it’s stupid!

La Briochée.

It’s elegant La Briochée.
Very elegant!

Oh!

Lolita Banana.

I’m allergic to jazz.

Security!

La Grande Dame.

Fontaine is the father.

Oh! Brigitte Fontaine’s dad.

She’s got the presence
and the humor,

she’s got the look.

She’s got it all.

Elips.

Modern, popular music.

That’s a fashionable tune.

Rihanna.

Soa.

[laughing]

Lova Ladiva.

Oh no, no, no, no.

One, two, three, Kam.

Plug in the guitars!

Come on!

[screaming]

Condragulations Commando!

-That feels good, huh!
-Yeah.

Oh well done!

Oh there! Oh there!

It gave, gave, gave

so much energy!

I think we have a winner.

Aha!

This mini challenge,
I think it’s...

So the best rock star
is me, obviously.

Then who is it?

La Grande Dame.

NICKY: You are the winner
of this mini challenge.

[laughing]

Thank you.

And to be honest,
you’re my winner,

Because I’m still
a little scared, too.

[laughing]

Kisses! But, kisses! Kisses!

Ah!

Good strategy!
I congratulate myself.

Jesus, Judas, Chico.

Thank you so much
for coming to see us.

We can applaud them.

[applauding]

We are lucky
to have extraordinary

drag kings in France.

Then go and see them!

[screaming]

Yes.

Oh!

My Queens.
For this week’s maxi challenge,

we suggest you play
a little comedy.

[screaming]

BRIOCHEE: For me,
this is an opportunity

to show that
I am a fierce drag queen,

very competitive

and that I have talent, honey.

You will be able
to show your acting skills

in a parody of the cult series

"Ten Percent",
entitled "Queen Percent".

[laughing]

Will you be a crazy agent,
a mysterious actress?

an assistant who will
do anything to succeed?

It’s not me who decides,
it’s La Grande Dame.

[screaming]

As the winner of this
week’s mini challenge,

you have the privilege

and responsibility
of distributing the roles.

My destiny is in the hands
of La Grande Dame.

What game is she gonna play?
It’s kind of freaking me out.

Because I think she can be
very clever and strategic

and say, what did you want?
No, you’re not getting it.

Super sneaky.

So, queens, are you ready
for the Caesars, for the Oscars

or for departure?

[screaming]

#DragRaceFrance

[screaming]

Oscar, honey.

But, thanks life, thanks loves.

It’s true, there are people
in this fucking life.

Thank you very much.

Great! Condragulations!

Okay. Okay.

Okay, I know what I want.

So, this is the big time.

So how do you want
to play it?

I honestly think

I’m gonna give everyone
the worst part

to make you look good.

I’m just kidding.

We’re gonna start,
I think, on a kind

of referendum to find
out which queen thinks

what role is right for whom?

Smart girl, we like it.

I want this competition
to be done

by the book because
that’s who I am.

So, Mona is the founder
and director

of the Stars France
talent agency.

Not bourgeois, almost bourgeois,

I put a small option on it.

Viviane,

this is the agent a little bit
historical of the box

I want that part.

Baby, Aunt Vivian.

Yes.

Now, we clearly have
a role for ourselves.

Yolanda is a Latina star.

I’m gonna be a little
upset that someone else

is doing it and that
I could have done better.

All right, I’ll keep my shot.

I don’t have a problem
with clichés.

I’m a cliché myself.

Now it’s all clear.

I’ll take Anitta with me.

Okay.

The mime Marcelle,
she doesn’t seem to talk.

She’s a real mime. And maybe

la Briochée, he doesn’t
tell you this part?

La Briochée in mime?

It’s impossible for her.

stop!

It’s a mime.
A mime doesn’t speak.

I don’t like the role
as a priority.

But maybe we can talk about it.

But I have another one,
which tempts me enormously.

Don’t fight ladies. Marion
Cotillard and Edith Piaf

for La Briochée.

So, it’s a little bit two
characters to play.

It's my role

But there’s also Elips
who wants the part.

I like the double role.

I also like this change
of voice between

Marion’s soft little voice.

But I like it a lot and I’ve
already done Edith Piaf

several times and I really
like this role and in addition,

The schizophrenic side
is so much fun to do.

Everything my referendum
was supposed to avoid

what happened.

There are three Gadjis
who want the same role.

I’m thinking, what’s going on?

There are Elips,
Kam and la Briochée

who are they to tell me:

"Ah, no, I want him, I want him"

I don’t even know what role
we’re talking anymore.

I'm gonna end up with a role
that I really don't want.

You told me about the...

I said mime Marcelle
or Edith Piaf,

not another one.

I think La Grande Dame

wants to give me the part,
but at the same time,

there’s la Briochée
who wants it.

You know what?
I’ll take Isabelle.

She takes Edith Piaf
and we agree.

Girls, if everyone’s happy,

I’m happy. Let’s get to work.

Come on!

To the table!

My queens. What would
you say to a first "coup de
Theatre?"

[laughing]

No, no, no, no.

Like that.

Let’s bring in the new Queen,
please.

What? What’s the surprise again?

[screaming]

[screaming]

This is Marianne James.

[screaming]

[screaming]

How are you doing?

-My little Briochée.
-We already know each other.

Hey, guys, hey there.

Oh! Marianne James!

Wow, respect.

Marianne will be directing you
on the set of

-"Queen percent".
-That’s cool.

-Serious.
-I'm nervous.

[screaming]

Welcome to the house.

I am absolutely, but this is one
of my moments where

I would have been the proudest
of my life to be with you there.

It’s really a special
moment shared with her.

It is extremely touching
because we also feel

that she is extremely
happy and very sensitive

about her presence among us.

I’m glad Marianne James is here.

And the first reason
is that I grew up with

Ulrika Von Glott.

She was one of the first known

drag queens in France,
Marianne James.

I felt like I was on a wave.

I didn’t create anything,
and it’s true. I told reporters:

I’m a drag queen,
I’m a woman who turns me

into a woman, another woman,
another accent, another story.

I was never an SS Nazi and yet
my character was, of course.

For humor,
there is a fierce humor and

I recognize that it has
marked people a lot, a lot.

That’s why I’m proud
to be with you because

at the time, I developed
my makeup, like you,

I got three colors.

I had a palette of white,
the palette of red and black

and with that I made all
the roses and all the gradients

and I ran to Paris
for the fake eyelashes.

I drink her words
so much and I dread

the look of Marianne James.

Her character is dazzling.

The best thing is to be,
I wanna tell you

and we say it everywhere,
on every stage: Be yourself!

There you are. Are you ready?

Yes.

-Enjoy yourself, mainly.
-Yes.

-Okay?
-Yes.

[screaming]

-I like the decor.
-It’s very beautiful.

But yes, everything is fine.
That’s great.

La Grande Dame, Lova and Paloma.

Ready?

You did a little bit
of your voice before.

It is also the voice
that is important.

No, we didn’t do
anything about it.

[singing]

Nothing, nothing?

[singing]

There you go! Great.

Come on, let’s go.

Okay. Go ahead.

We’re looking at you.

Come on!

Watch out, "Draction"!

I’m sorry, Kimberley.

I think today is the end

of Star France.

One Minute.

Okay, it starts very strong,
it starts very very strong.

Condragulations!
But we have to make it simpler.

-There is a lot of silence.
-Yes.

That’s a straight line.

I’m so sorry.

Kimberley.

Cut it! Cut it!

It’s still a little slow.

Frankly, La Grande Dame,
straighter.

She often gets the poor girl,
it’s not easy.

I admit I’d hate
to be in his shoes.

Really give up on doing
anything to your voice.

What’s gonna work
is her excess

and your own simplicity.

Give us another idea.

Yeah, and we’ll see
if it works. Okay?

I’m sorry,
Kimberley, and you go on...

I’m sorry, Kimberley,
and you really are.

I have a hard time letting go
of bourgeois lengths.

I’m waiting to hear what
you have to say about that.

In total, I have three lines.

I’m mixing up a little bit.

[weird sounds]

Lova Ladiva,

I think she’s one
of the worst actresses

I’ve ever seen in my life.

But I don’t know by what
miracle it works and it’s funny.

-What’s the movie?
-"La Vie En Rose 2".

The return of Edith.

I didn’t get it all,
but basically,

Edith comes back from the dead,

in the body of a Latino
reggaeton singer.

I impose
a character right away,

without La Grande Dame
needing to find her own.

As soon as I get
to the set, I think, Come on,

we have to stick together,

we try to motivate
each other. We find a lot

of little comedy stuff
to do together.

[laughing]

Stop, stop, cut!

You change nothing for now,

You really don’t
change anything, Paloma.

Well, I’m so happy.

That’s all I wanna hear then.

PALOMA: That reassures me.

I think I made
the right choice of character.

She’s here.
Come on, Isabelle, honey.

PALOMA: You’re walking
around Montmartre.

From now on, Edith Piaf
lives through you.

you feel Edith possessing you?

KAM HUGH: What I want
is to show the jury

that I listened to them,
that I let myself go, show them,

in fact, that I took risks

and that maybe it paid off.

So, Kam,
it’s a little bit like that.

I think you really need to go

to a female playwright.

You’re gonna stay
quieter in place.

Okay! I’m not a little girl.

You want a wife? Let’s go!

Stop it all!

Miranda is here now.

What’s she doing here? That one?

So, la Big Bertha, in the end.

It has to be in three stages.

Stop it! I’ll be back!

-Miranda.
-Stop everything!

-Miranda is here.
-Miranda is here.

And cut it! What the hell,
is she doing here?

There’s a double stress
because I get remarks,

but these are not
remarks of anyone.

These are Marianne’s remarks.

So me, in my head, it’s boom.

And now you’re thinking shit,
I’m at the bottom of the list.

LA BIG BERTHA: No, I’m in the
middle. No, I’m at the bottom.

No, I’m in the middle. Hell!

Come on, let’s go.

[laughing]

Make it shorter than that,
it’s more dynamic

and it was very funny.

[laughing]

I, Marion Warren,

This is Edith.

Cut! Don’t forget the yes.

Before you say no,
Marion has to answer first,

before she has to, okay?

I am very confident with
my performance and I really hope

that this week I will be
in the top of the ranking.

[laughing]

what a shame [applauding]

-Wow.
-It’s short and embodied.

One take, bitches.

oh bitches, hey girls

Cut! the door.

From the energy,
you’re reacting!

Let’s wake up in the corner
of the two p----there. Come on!

I think I’m a little stressed.

So I know, I kind of have
this thing where I need to talk.

SOA: I speak very fast.

So now I’m releasing

Blah blah blah, stop!

No, no, no, no, no, no.
What I want is...

The national stadium of France,
sis

Cut!

[applauding]

I look forward
to seeing the result

tomorrow with the full jury.

It’s okay, it’s over?
Is it okay?

DAY OF ELIMINATION

So. It’s a new day
in the workshop.

LOVA: Today,
I’m gonna tear it up.

BERTHA: I’m super
excited about today.

Admittedly,
there are eliminations, of
course,

But it’s the runway
and I wanna blow it up.

Who thinks they’re in the top
ranking?

I am confident because
I know that on the first part

of my maxi challenge,
I made everyone laugh.

So, Lova, you think you’re safe?

[laughing]

Yeah.

[laughing]

She thinks she did
a great performance,

but she’s kind of
living in an ideal,

of what she could have done.

For me, this is the bottom
of the obvious ranking.

I can’t wait to see
the result and the final cut.

Frankly, it’s gonna be fun.
I really looking forward to it.

What’s gonna matter,
I think, too, is the runway.

Come on!

But speaking of runways,
let’s get ready.

-Come on!
-It’s not easy.

But Kam tell me, how long
have you been wearing makeup?

I started wearing
makeup when I was 13,

Not yet drag.

At first, I’m like,
I was the only guy

who obviously put on makeup,

but I feel like I really
wasn’t ashamed.

I think Kam and I have
a similar story about this.

How exactly did
your parents react

to you wearing makeup?

Well, I was lucky enough
to have very loving parents.

When they found out
I was hiding it at first,

Of course, they just basically
told me, stop hiding it.

There’s nothing to worry about.

Not everyone has that chance.

It’s really, really a chance
to be supported,

when you’re drag,

to be supported, when you
are queer in general.

When I told my mom,

she’s peeling carrots
and it took me

maybe 15 minutes to tell her.

I was trembling.
I was like, "I like boys."

She just put the knife down.
She said,

"I’ve known since
you were four".

[laughing]

I came out when I was 18

and I texted my mom.

So I said, "If you want me

to leave the house,
I’ll understand".

That could be a problem.
Revealing that we’re gay,

when in real life it’s not
a problem at all because

it doesn’t change who you are.

And in fact, she told
me you’re still my son.

All this was hard at the time,
but as soon as I came out,

I was really free!

A child you raised
is the same before or after

he told you he was gay

The story of coming out,

I don’t
understand it because

you have to justify your
sexuality to the world.

Chase the natural,
It just cannot stop its true
colors from shining through,
honey.

You can do whatever you want.
If it’s there, it’s there,

You, la Briochée.

In your life, you may have
had two coming out to do.

Yes, correct.

It was kind of weird.

I realized I was trans
before I even knew

I liked men, but I got scared.

It’s hard to grow up
when you don’t understand

what’s happening to you?

I realized after that
I had an attraction for men

and I thought to myself.

Well, it may be easier
in fact to live as a gay boy,

female, which, as a result,
I started to adopt

a very androgynous
look in high school,

I began to express
my femininity at that time

and at one point I said,
I have only one life,

I must live it for myself,
I must not live it

for others or anything.
And then let’s go!

So after a while,
you have to assume it

and be proud of who you are.

No matter the dictates
of the society

or I don’t know what in fact.

The only person you
can listen to is yourself.

And I wrote a letter
to my parents.

So they couldn't react too
quickly.

There you go.

I know very well that it would
have been very difficult

to talk to all three together.

And finally, it was the right
option because, in fact,

they accepted me right away.

What I know is that
I am a woman and that

no one will take this away from
me and no one will be able to.

It’s interesting because

I went through this stage
at a time in my life when

I thought I had to transition
because I didn’t feel,

I didn’t recognize myself
in all the codes of masculinity.

In fact, it hasn’t been long.
For three years

I have been able to tell myself
today that I am neither a boy

nor a girl and I am
not gender neutral.

The only place I have.

It’s me, actually.

For me, Soa is a creature.
There is neither "he" nor "she".

She’s a muse, period.

If in fact we raised...we racked
our brains less

Being a guy is like that.

Being a woman is like that.

Being this is like that, I swear
there would have been

fewer problems
on the fucking planet.

In fact, we agree.
We talked a lot.

Except now we have a runway.

So we’re gonna have
to get the girls moving

because I just put my
foundation.

Good evening to all
and welcome to

the great stage
of Drag Race France.

The very fashionable
Daphne Burki is with us tonight.

Daphne! What role
do you play best?

The one that never
hurts in her heels.

That is a bluff!

The talented Kiddy
Smile is with us too.

Kiddy, what’s the role
you play best?

That is the role
of the attentive person

when I am not listening at all.

Okay.

Do you like my dress?

Waw!

Quick, give him an Oscar.

Our special guest tonight
has become an icon of humor

thanks to her very drag
character as a German singer,

Maria Ulrika von Glott.

Marianne James.

Marianne.
would you rather play or sing?

I’d rather have sex.

I think she’d rather play.

[laughing]

This week,
we asked our nine queens

to play in a homemade version
of the "Call my Agent" series.

Who will earn an Oscar
or who will say goodbye?

Before discovering
this first and probably last

episode of "Queen Percent",
we will celebrate the beginning

of summer with
a floral themed runway.

My queens.
Get ready for the start

and let the best drag queen win.

First, Soa de Muse.

[FRENCH EXPRESSION]

For the runway,
I was inspired by the flower

from my home in the West Indies,
which is the bird of paradise.

SOA: And I picked it
because it’s got

a pretty punk side
and a pretty hot side.

She’s got green fingers
and feet and buttocks.

[laughing]

One, two, three, Kam.

NICKY: Wow! It’s very fresh.

Her dress is divine.

What a beautiful look!
Can it be very successful?

As soon as I think of flowers,
I think of the hydrangeas

of my childhood and I wanted to
mix it with a very French side.

KAM HUGH: So I imagined
Marie-Antoinette

falling into
a bunch of hydrangeas.

Oh well, we have a flower
in our mouth.

[French Expression]

MARIANNE: Oh that
Marie-Antoinette!

We don’t wanna
cut off her head.

[laughing]

La Big Bertha.

[laughing]

Oh no!

Did she lose someone?

I’m a black widow.

I’m sad and devastated.

And here, in my cleavage,
what do I find?

[laughing]

Oh come on, share, bitch!

I’m keeping this.

[laughing]

And now I turn around.

Oh yeah, I buy.

I wanna prove that
the summer body

must be buried.

Your body is just a body,
period.

But in real life, the funeral
is still the only day

when everyone is well dressed.

That’s right, yeah.

Elips.

Oh!

Elips, home phone.

[laughing]

It’s the look of an alien who

fell in love with
flowers on Earth.

And then she decides
to wear them in a dress,

so she always has them on her.

[French Expression]

Oh, so subtle!

Anyway, with my eyebrows off,
I already have an alien head.

So I might as well be
an alien in drag too.

La Briochée.

Oh, yeah, yeah!

That speaks to the nerd in me.

I wanna show
my geek side, my love

for video games.
I want the jury to say:

BRIOCHEE: "Well, she made
a rather unusual,

original choice out of what
others have been able to explore

for this
floral theme.

DAPHNE: So I have
a real question,

are carnivorous
plants vegetarian?

[French Expression]

I couldn’t answer you.

[laughing]

Lolita Banana.

Hi petals! Are you okay?

For the flower runway, I serve
you Florès from Frida Kahlo.

Wooooow!

And I’m hearing the audience.

Oh! oh!

Time has stopped.

This is awesome!

So here. This is a presentation!

Visually, there! Wow!

I am very happy to wear
this outfit because

for me, it represents
the family and represents

the beauty of my culture.

Paloma.

Waw!

In red and black.

I’ll water my flowers.

PALOMA: This is my
tribute to Lady Oscar

and my childhood
heroines Milady Winter,

the rose of Versailles.

I was a fan of this
cartoon when I was younger.

In the credits,
at one point, Lady Oscar is like

a red rose surrounded
by brambles,

and it’s really
a 100% Paloma look.

[French Expression]

Lova Ladiva.

LOVA: I walk on stage, I come
in with a blonde wig,

with little elven ears
like a forest nymph.

It’s France with a big "Elf".

[laughing]

Oh!

I show them
my vine leaf,

which is in the right place.

La Grande Dame.

MARIANNE: Ah!
the length of her legs!

[French Expression]

I really wanted avant-garde

I didn’t wanna
make a silly simple flower.

GRANDE: We start on
symmetrical geometric flower.

In my opinion, it's futuristic.

It is a "bloom" of joy.

Yes, oh oh oh!

The flowers around my face
complement

the shapes of the wig I designed
which is inspired by the shape

of an orchid and that I made
with the help of a wigmaker

[laughing]

There are only two
people in the world

who can do that:
RuPaul and the Great Lady.

Well, are you forgetting me?

And Kiddy.

[laughing]

Wow!

My queens.
First of all, Condragulations

for this fantastic runway.

You were all beautiful.

there is a very high level in
Drag Race France competition

While we water you up,
let’s take a look

at your performance
in "Queen Percent".

Camera, "Draction"!

Sit down, Kimberley.
I’m sorry, Kimberley,

but it seems to me that today
is the end of Star France.

[laughing]

Victoria decided to leave
the agency by stealing

my talents,
by stealing my files to create

her own agency: "Star fake".

[screaming]

Sorry!

[screaming]

Unless there’s
a miracle in the day,

It’s the end
for Star France.

[screaming]

This is a miracle.

Viviane,
what are you doing here?

I don’t have
the money to pay you.

-I already told you.
-But I don’t care.

I’m not doing
this for the money.

I’m doing this for the love
of art and champagne.

And I like it when it sparkles.

Oh sorry, my sweet!

At the same time, she was
already crying.

[screaming]

Close the door behind you,
Kimberley!

Well, listen to me.

Listen carefully
I met a great director,

a Yank. He offered me
the exclusivity of his scenario.

He wouldn’t give it to me,
but I got it.

-How did you do it?
-I don’t wanna tell you.

I already told the police,
I don’t like to repeat myself.

The fact is that he gave us
exclusivity

If we find the actress,
the movie is ours.

If the movie’s ours, we’re rich.

-What’s the movie?
-"La Vie En Rose 2".

The return of Edith.

I didn’t get it all,
but basically,

Edith returns from the dead,
in the body

of a Latino reggaeton singer.

-But is it shit?
-Yes, but we don’t care.

-It’s Hollywood.
-All right?

Call all the big stars.

Get them over here.

Give them that casting.

We’re gonna turn the tables.

Save Star France.

I thought it was the end

of Star France, maybe it was

the birth of Star War.

-Champagne!
-Champagne!

I always carry a bottle.

Of course, that's why we love
each other

[laughing]

She’s here.
Come on, Isabelle, honey.

-Isabelle Adjani?
-Yes, herself.

Or not for that matter,
I don’t know.

I haven’t decided who I am yet.

I give you the context
and you improvise, ok?

I think I’m gonna live.

You are Edouarda,
a young Puerto Rican woman,

recently landed in Paris.

You’re walking
around Montmartre.

You are amazed when,

all of a sudden, you hear
the sound of a music box.

It is a song by Edith Piaf,
but not only.

It’s also an enchantment.

From now on,
Edith Piaf lives through you.

Edith came in and into you.

You’re resisting a little.

But this feeling
becomes pleasant.

That’s it. Edith is inside you.

It's exploring your new body.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Excuse me, but when do I die?

What do you mean?

A very dramatic death.

She could die murdered. Yes.

No, no, no, no.

Drowned, yes, drowned.

I’ll do it for you.
I have a bottle of water.

It’s not the energy
of the movie, you know?

We’ll call you back.

Stop it all!

Miranda is in there!

What’s she doing here?

Isabelle, honey. How are you?

-It’s not going well at all.
-Oh well that’s great!

So when do we shoot?

All right, Miranda, honey,
we know you’re a star,

But you have
to show us something.

A little trial run, you know?

How about that? ls that good?

And if not,
who’s playing my lines?

What do you mean?

Well, there’s always
someone playing my lines.

I do the labial.

I’m moving some air.

The uptight one! Read a passage!

Who do you think you are?

Let go of me!

No, you don’t know who I am.

-I’m not a prostitute.
-I’m an artist.

Miranda, can you qualify that?

No, Miranda, it’s me.

It’s not the text, Miranda.
Okay.

All right, I’ll keep going.

I am an artist.

Édith Piaf.

Edith Piaf?

No, I don’t play dead.
I’m too young to play dead.

Oh, but girls, it was
really nice to see you.

My assistant will
send you the bill.

Bye.

You think,
we’re gonna find her?

But yes,
there are others coming.

Then prepare for departure.

And may the best actress win.

[laughing]

Next!

It’s me, Edith Piaf.

You know Edith Piaf?

I am Edith Piaf.

[laughing]

And Piaf!

I’m happy to be Edith Piaf.

[laughing]

I’m sad to be Edith Piaf.

[crying]

And Piaf!

Next!

[opera songs]

Next!

[thunder]

That is my role.

My part in it.

[thunder]

-Edith Piaf?
-Edith wants to play.

-Edith, please stop!
-Marion?

Yes. No, not Marion.

This is Edith.

Edith wants to play
in "La Vie En Rose 2".

Edith. I can’t take it anymore.

Find yourself another body.

Help me out here!

It’s worse than an STD.

But leave me alone!

Wo bitches, hey girl!

-What was the turn?
-What did you say?

You didn’t know
who I was or what?

-Is she serious or what?
-Anitta, sweety.

I know it’s your first
movie role, but we figured

you had a lot in
common with Edith.

You see your unpredictable side,
difficult childhood,

a lot of followers, fire inside.

I confess, honey,
I ate Indian food last night.

Okay, so here we are,
and we chat and we chat.

What’s this fight with Edith?

Don’t talk. I’m talking.

It’s a fucking crazy thing.

Okay, okay.
You’re gonna do that scene.

Edith is touched.

She discovers
her name in red letters

on the facade of the Olympia.

No, but darling you should be
happy

It's the Olympia for fucks sake

What? Happy? I'm not happy. This
crappy old scene!

Are you serious?

I don’t like your thing,
your old red bathroom.

Are you serious?

Give me the national stadium
of France and I’ll give
you...Edith

No, no, no, no, no. Nothing.

No, no, no.
I don’t regret anything.

All the good that
was done to me,

all the harm, I don’t care.

No, no, no, no, nothing.

I don’t care about the past.

[screaming]

But it is her!

-Oh, great! It’s champagne,
-It wasn’t champagne.

-Viviane.
-But Kimberley?

What did you do? why?

It wasn't Victoria who stole
your files

-What do you mean?
-I gave them to her.

Stop the humiliation!

And Kimberley’s
gonna get me a coffee.

But Kimberley, it’s your job.

You are my assistant.

I am an actress.

I’ll take this script
and give it to the agency

that represents
me today "Star Fake".

Goodbye!

[laughing]

Viviane. But how?

I always carry one.

[laughing]

[applauding]

Condragulations!

[applauding]

My queens. What a talent!
You can be proud.

It’s not gonna be easy to decide

and you’re not making
it is easy for me.

This is for sure.

My queens.
We’re gonna have to go

from fiction to reality.

When I call your name,
move forward.

Lolita Banana.

Soa de Muse.

La Grande Dame.

La Big Bertha.

Paloma.

Lova Ladiva.

This week, you are either
in front or behind the others.

Some people say yes.

For others we diverge.

Kam Hugh.

Elips.

La Briochée.

You stay with us.

You can go backstage.

[applauding]

Soa de Muse.

Hi. Hi.

Dear Soa, one small thing.
Don’t take this the wrong way.

A little laziness
As far as the costume goes,

you could have really explored
the wilder vegetal floral

theme than "Queen Percent".

Finally, you were
in the comfort,

in something you know
how to do and like to do.

And I don’t think you
even surprised yourself.

I would have seen you
in a Catherine Deneuve,

for example.

Coming from you,
a great performer,

I expect a lot more than
you did to us last week.

You were on top, you earned it.

I want the same thing every day.

Okay, thank you.

La Big Bertha.

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

Whose shoes are these?

They are too comfortable.

These are the shoes
to go to the cemetery.

It can’t work out.

That was the first thing
that jumped out at me.

And that little black dress,

It’s too small
for la Big Bertha.

I want a lot more la Big Bertha.

You impressed us last week.
I want more breadth in your
outfit and in your creation.

However, in the challenge,
when you arrive,

something happens.
You light up the stage

that takes on
another dimension.

Now, if you could push
your outfits a little more.

It works, thank you.

Lolita Banana.

Live life.

I loved it when you
opened your skirt.

It was a perfect fashion moment.

Which will be copied

and reproduced
all over the world.

It was just pure poetry.

Who made this dress?

My aunt did that.

It’s the skirt from my
cousin’s 15th birthday party.

I added drag life because
my cousin isn’t drag.

But the rest is family.

I’m importing 100%
of my family right now.

Beautiful!

I swear to you, it was really
transpiring in your performance.

I was there with you
for that famous "Queen Percent".

Only one take.

And there, you probably
danced with the ancestors

of your famous
party of the dead, etc.

and everyone who was with you.

I see all your emotions rise
and mine rises as well.

How do you feel?

You know a little bit
about the history, Nicky,

of being a foreigner in another
country that I’ve chosen

and I love France.

It’s the land
of my childhood dreams.

But I still miss my family.

And to feel accompanied
on this podium,

especially by my family
who did this for me

and I am really pleased
that you know

-how to connect with me.
-Condragulations to you!

Condragulations Lolita!

[applauding]

And you’ll pay for
my makeup artist, okay?

Thank you.

Paloma.

She dressed like a boy.

Thank you for that reference
that did me so much good.

You laid details everywhere,
from the tip of your nails

to the tip of your shoes.

This is exceptional!
Condragulations!

The "Queen Percent"
scene you shot,

you held it masterfully
from A to Z and it stands

for all your mates put together.
It’s holding on because of you.

And also Paloma, in fact,
was the one who went to each

of us to give us her
little tips and a little bit

to take us by the hand with her.

So for that, just...

a good friend.

Condragulations to the children!

Condragulations! Sincerely,

I always wanted to do this
show and I always wanted

to come here as an actor.

And yesterday,
in fact, it was exactly what

I came to do this show.

And on those words, champagne!

[laughing]

Always on me, vegetables.

[laughing]

Lova Ladiva.

The theme was flowers

and I don’t know
what flower you are.

But here, it was necessary
to take the flower theme,

To transform it and that
when you arrive on the stage,

it is an evidence
of everything you are.

And then for the challenge,
you’re funny.

But sometimes
I’m not sure if it's voluntary.

I don’t know

if we ever laugh
at you or laugh with you,

but I believe in you.

You’re gonna take
all this advice and move on.

Thank you.

La Grande Dame.

La Grande Dame!

The "Queen Per Cent,"

the only thing that saved
your ass was the editing.

Because the truth is,
we took a lot of time

just with your role,

because you got bogged
down in one direction.

It was very, very slow

to make you understand
that you had to chain the lines,

and you weren’t playing alone.

So, on this, I have a small
reservation about acting.

Now, I really liked one thing.

Every moment,
you put your foot somewhere,

something happens,

and I just wanna
tell you one thing,

We don’t care
if you’re beautiful.

We know you’re beautiful.

You really, really need
to go work on interiority.

-Now.
-It’s working.

Thank you girls,
you can go unpack

your jewels while
we deliberate among ourselves.

And at the bottom
of the leaderboard.

So we have Lova,
she was very funny

with the laughter,

but she misses too
much with the lyrics.

If not, Soa is at the
bottom, as well.

Soa played well anyway.

But I feel like she
was really in his head.

When we listen to her,

she hasn't succeeded
in fulfilling her role.

So the third one, either Bertha

or La Grande Dame,
is in between.

Yeah, Bertha played well.

I, Bertha, saw her
as safe as possible.

Yeah, because she’s
not turning herself in.

So I think we’re
gonna have a big surprise.

Well, it won’t wait.

Can’t wait to hear you talk.

So, what are your predictions?

Paloma is on top.

But I’m not the only one.

Lolita and I were the Lolita.

It was equal, really.

And the third one,
we have a hesitation between you

La Grande Dame or Bertha.

You don’t know. I don’t know.

Well, if we know you’re great,

I’m still not feeling well.

I confess that I have the little
remarks of Marianne James,

who remains a little more
in my mind than the others.

Wait a second.

Because you’re
part of the bottom.

Yeah.

What?

La Grande Dame.
What do you mean

by you’re at the bottom
of the list?

Will you cut the crap?

Come on, it was complicated
for you at the beginning,

But you smashed it.

I think there’s
no real forgiveness.

When we left, there were
really low rankings actually.

Well, after that,
it remains to be seen.

Nothing has been decided yet.

But hey.

Condragulations!
And if it’s lip sync,

That’s right,
we’ll give it all anyway.

Between us girlfriends,
what do you think?

We have to redo everything.

No.

Soa.

She can do better.

She won. Next week,

maybe she sat
a little on the laurels.

She has to go back.

She’s the one who
really need a shot.

-Electroshock?
-Exactly to be woken up

Lolita.

Amazing! It’s one
of my favorites tonight.

A lot of emotions.

She touched me a lot.

Careful, isn’t she locking
herself in this box?

Yeah.

Just because there’s a Latina
part doesn’t mean it’s for you.

Let us at least acknowledge that

it is one of the only ones whose
mother tongue is not French,

and that is the one
who took it all at once.

Exactly.

And that got us through
the most emotions and messages.

Paloma, before she
even opened her mouth,

she had already won
in the actor challenge.

It was really very impressive.
She always had a smile.

It was a great lesson
in professionalism and on stage,

it was just pure poetry.

And for me,
that’s what drives me in drag.

It’s taking personal
inspirations,

things that have marked
us in our childhood

and creating them from scratch.

That’s what she did tonight
and it was beautiful.

Lova.

Ah! Lova, Lova, Lova.

Beyond her costume,
for me, which was completely

off-topic, his acting,
with all due respect,

puts me in an incredible
embarrassment.

In the challenge,
she found herself in exactly

the same place that we found
her in the first episode.

I mean, I trust my personality

and come what may.

La Grande Dame.

We weren’t there
for the challenge.

So, we only saw the best.

We only saw the best.

What you need
to know is that Marianne

and I had a hard
time getting her

to understand that the artistic

decision was not necessarily
the right one and that,

above all, it slowed
down the whole scene.

After that, when she walks,
I don’t even have superlatives.

Believe me, I bow.

La Big Bertha.

The little black dress,
it’s a little too simple for me,

even though I understand
the message behind it.

But that wasn’t enough.
Then she gave up acting.

Stop it all!

Miranda is here now.

It was too easy for her.

She came in relaxed.

What are you saying, Daphne?
It’s not gonna be that.

His energy was overflowing
all the time.

She’s coming back to earth.

Stop!

I’ve made my decision.

Bring back my queens!

My dear queens.
I’ve made my decision.

La Grande Dame.

You stay with us.

Go join the others.

Not impeccable,

but the top of the leaderboard

is me who has it.

Lolita Banana.

Tonight with you,
it was a whirlwind of emotions

and petals.

In Edith Piaf or Frida,
you are a real diva.

Condragulations!

Paloma, Paloma, Paloma.

This week, you punctured
the screen and a few tires,

I think with that outfit too.

In comedy and fashion,
it’s a master class.

Condragulations!

Paloma Condragulations!
You’re the queen of the week.

[applauding]

Paloma, Paloma, Paloma.

I won the game!

When I realize I won,
it’s a crazy thing.

The champagne!

[applauding]

Thank you very much.
I’m very touched. Thank you.

You won that one.

NICKY: Escape by the sea,
Thalazur Cabourg,

the four-star hotel with
integrated thalassotherapy

offers you a stay of
well-being

and relaxation
on the Normandy Coasts.

Thanks Paloma.

You can join the others.

[applauding]

Lolita. Very nice week for you.

Condragulations! Continue like
this, you can join the others.

[applauding]

I didn’t win today,
but I’m fine.

It was the actor challenge
and Paloma, the great actress

Almodovar Rihanna,
she deserved it.

I was still at the top
of the leaderboard once.

I still won
and now I find myself

at the bottom of the standings.

And in my head,
I don’t think I’m being

put in lip sync with my sister.

Lova Ladiva.

This week, you showed us
that you knew how to fall.

But is that too much of a fall?

I’m sorry, sweetie,
but you might leave.

All right, one more time.

Soa.

On the podium, you’re heady,
but for the challenge,

weren’t you a little lazy?

Bertha You are the whole menu
starter, main course, dessert.

Yes.

But this week,
it’s not what we ordered.

I see myself clearly
in the last two.

I’m already starting
to think about lip sync.

-Soa.
-Yes.

I’m sorry, sweetie,
but you might leave

-You too.
-Let’s go!

Bertha, you stay with us.

-Thank you.
-You can join the others.

I am not happy.

So no, I’m not gonna jump
everywhere because I was saved

in fourth position.
I disappointed them.

I promise we’ll change
the menu soon.

There are two
queens left on stage.

My dear queens,
it’s now or never.

This is your last
chance to impress us

with legendary lip sync.

Good luck and don’t fuck it up!

I’m going.
And I’m gonna rock it.

SOA: I may not have shown
what I was capable

for this acting challenge,

but I’ll show you what
I’m capable of in the lipsync.

And now, my dear,
put your belt on.

Come on!

Ouch ouch!

Condragulations!

[applauding]

Well done guys!

Condragulations my queens!
I have made my decision.

Soa.

Shantay, you stay.

Thank you. Thank you.

You can join the others.

But we’d rather see you on top.

I promise.

I got a little hot.

Sometimes, I need to kick
my ass to make things right.

Tigress, it’s the
phoenix of fire,

the Knights of the Zodiac that
arrives and smashes all that.

-Lova, Lova, Lova.
-Yes, baby.

I’m not sure why.

But I love you and I think
everyone here does.

Me too.

You have all
the qualities of a star.

You are endearing
and entertaining.

But for now,
just so you know, it’s over.

Okay,

Thank you.
I wanted to thank the whole

Drag Race France team.

Including you.

I’m one of the oldest
drag queens here.

I don’t know if there
are others, older ones.

[laughing]

And you gave
an old school drag queen a
chance.

And for that,
it deserves a lot, a lot for me.

[applauding]

You’re not an old school queen
anymore, you’re a drag queen

of today and tomorrow.

I’ll do anything to get back
on any stage because

I’m made for it.

[applauding]

Goodbye.

LOVA: We’ve always been
a little disappointed

when we are out of
an adventure like this.

I’ll get over it first
before I put it on a mirror.

You might as well
leave like a diva.

I came here
to show who I am.

I’ve had ankylosing
spondylitis since I was thirteen

I couldn’t run,
and three months ago

I was in the hospital.

I came here mainly

to show people who are sick

that you can do
whatever you want,

whenever you want.

Kill it, ladies!

I’m part of old drag queens

and now I'm part
of a new ones.

Today is the beginning
of my new life.

Divas like me, there’ll be more.

Oh, thank you!

My queens.
Condragulations again to all!

You can be proud.

Love yourself as you are
and life will always be a party.

[screaming]

And don’t forget it!

Music.

NICKY: Coming soon
in Drag Race France,

My queens,
for this week’s big challenge,

We're gonna have a Fench Ball

Finally, the 100%
challenge for me!

[laughing]

Each of you will need
to use at least three

of these beach accessories
to create your outfit.

Mom, this is hell!

[screaming]

This is a nightmare!

It’s haute couture, darling.

Something’s gonna happen here,

There is a problem.

I must say, I expected better.

My biggest fear
is disappointing.

DAPHNE: At this level
of competition,

We have to go much
further than that.

Anything can happen.
Anything can happen.

DRAG RACE FRANCE
THERE WILL BE ONLY ONE QUEEN
