[singing] MTV

[RuPaul's "Who is She"]

[singing] Who is she?

We are one week away from crowning

America's Next Drag Superstar.

But tonight, we celebrate the biggest cast

of the biggest season ever,

and they are ready to let loose.

That was a lovely fairy tale.

Let me give y'all the truth.

[laughter]

Legendary lip syncs...

[laughter]

Luminous looks...

It's... not good.

And all the drag queen drama, mama.

- It really hurt. - The chapter's closed.

Ooh!

Did you make that up?

[dramatic musical flourish]

[singing] RuPaul's Drag Race

The winner of "RuPaul's Drag Race"

receives a one-year supply

of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics

and a gag-worthy grand prize of $200,000

served by Cash App.

[singing] RuPaul's Drag Race

May the best drag queen

Best drag queen win

[tires squealing]

From the theater at the Ace Hotel

in downtown Los Angeles,

bring back my girls.

[singing] Bring back my girls

I don't stir the pot.

[scoffs] I smoke it.

Ain't no rest for this bitch face.

Is the aura in here sickening,

or is it just me?

I may have gone home first,

but I'm also a bitch.

Most girls follow the script.

I flip it.

I may have been cut before the finale,

but Loose-ing is the new winning.

I didn't ask to be the beauty standard.

I was just born this way.

I may be a babydoll,

but I'm not to be played with.

If you come for me,

I will apologize immediately.

I may be a mistress,

but, honey, I'm Ru's main bitch.

[titters]

I'm quitting drag.

You're welcome.

Bad bitchery is as bad bitchery does.

You may see a little Latin boy in drag crying,

but I see a nice pair of EsTitties.

[snickers]

I'm still your favorite drag queen's

favorite drag queen.

Both: We're not as annoying as we look.

Or are we?

Ugh, I'm bored.

[upbeat music]

Welcome to "RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited."

Now, in one week, Anetra,

Luxx Noir London,

Mistress Isabelle Brooks,

and Sasha Colby will tear up this very stage

as they battle for the title

of America's Next Drag Superstar.

But tonight, it's all about the sisterhood,

because right now, there is so much more at stake,

and once again, drag queens are on the frontlines

fighting for freedom.

And you can help.

Scan this QR code and support

the ACLU Drag Defense Fund now.

Can I get an amen?

All: Amen.

When they go low,

we go, "Hiii!"

So shoulders back, tits out,

and let's celebrate the light, love, and laughter

that is season 15.

Can I get a neck crack?

[whip cracks]

[laughter]

Let's go.

Back for our 15th lap...

Yes, mama!

The stunts and the shenanigans

are just getting started.

[lip-synching] You better walk that fucking duck

[cheers and laughter]

[all screaming]

Uh, howdy, y'all.

[whip cracks]

[laughter]

[as Joan Rivers] The only thing that's worse than flying

is sex with my ex-husband.

[lip-synching] These are our golden years

I was like, oh, my God, that's a star.

Can I get a halleloo?

All: Halleloo!

If you're gonna swing big,

this would be the place to do it.

[gasps] Vertebrae, you stay.

It looks like something that would be from the Met Gala.

Can we some water, 'cause that zebra is panting.

It's giving me House of Monáe.

When you turned the corner, I gasped.

Baby, she tore that shit up.

Can we just talk about this look?

If you had asked me if I'd be

hosting a television show back then,

you know what my answer would have been?

- Yes? - Yes!

This is our 200th episode.

You don't look a day over 100.

[laughter]

Now who's gonna read the will?

Both: Eww!

If you stay machete,

you ain't gotta get machete!

Can we please talk about that fucking lip sync?

[dramatic electronic music]

[cheers]

America's Next Drag Superstar needs

to have all the right moves.

For the first time this season,

shantay, you both stay.

[laughing]

I think drag is the most joyous art form that there is.

That is the greatest thing in the world to hear,

especially at a time like this where there's

so many people trying to take down queer representation.

We still shouldn't be having, like,

problems about drag queens reading a story to kids.

The whole thing is, we don't want our kids

exposed to this because drag queens are gonna be

like a bad influence on them.

My queer family took me to my first drag show,

and it saved my life.

And it's made this life such a joy to live.

[lip-synching] Drag is a fight

Drag is a protest

Drag only reveals who you really are

I think that queer people just saying,

we can't be fucked with the way that y'all think we can,

that's going to be the driving force for change.

It's no accident you're standing on this stage.

- Top four. - Top four!

[all cheering]

I know how hard this is.

You should be very, very proud of yourselves.

- [cheers and laughter] - Yas!

Now, each season I'm curious to find out

what my girls take away from their time at "Drag Race."

But this season, one queen took more than others.

[laughs]

Mistress, is there anything you'd like to tell us?

Um, you know, I took away so many lovely lessons,

of course, Ru.

Because apparently all the queens voted you

the girl most likely to steal your stuff.

Might've taken a book or two, some earrings...

[laughter]

Did anybody see her taking anything?

Put that motherfucking hand down.

[laughter]

She left me a note asking for one of my wigs,

and she told me she wouldn't fuck with me

if I didn't give it to her.

And here we are.

Nice to see you, Eileen.

[laughter]

Did you decide to take things when you got there,

or did you have a plan before you got there

that you would take things?

What's less time in prison?

Premeditated or... [laughter]

But I'm not the only one.

Miss Walk That Duck, tell her what you took too.

- [laughter] - I don't know.

Look, season 16 the lights will be

a little dim, let's just say that.

- Okay. - Anetra took a light bulb.

- Don't be shy, bitch. - It was...

Listen, "Drag Race" was lit,

and I wanted a piece of it.

- Okay. - Now.

Well, Mistress, I have to inform you,

you will be getting a bill.

[laughter]

Now, this season for the first time in "Drag Race" herstory,

we had twins.

Take a look.

Well, this doesn't look like the toy store.

Sweetie, that was my line.

Ugh, whatever.

- I'm Sugar. - And I'm Spice.

And we're the dolls... both: That came to life.

So you certainly are Sugar's sister.

We should really just be called Canned and Bit.

Yeah, we have so many bits, and they're so canned.

We have all the good bits.

Sugar and Spice are a fucking hoot.

[upbeat electronic music]

[laughter]

Eh.

God, I'm annoying.

[laughter]

[singing] Jesus, you are my best friend

[laughing goofily]

I'm just gonna do this for my own sanity.

- Let me go to the end. - I'm gonna move you

- down to the end. - Let me go to the end.

After I got shut down, I was like,

okay, let me just take a back seat.

You're still on probation to being "my daughter."

Okay. I have to get it together.

Let me teach you lesson number one.

You do not let a bitch step over you.

You clock 'em the first time so they won't ever do it again.

I'm done with apologizing for being too much.

Like, whatever. Let me own it.

This is a twin sync...

[clicks tongue] For your life.

[cheers and laughter]

all: Aww.

Now, Sugar and Spice, you came in as outsiders,

but you adapted pretty quickly.

What have you learned?

Wow. I hate to be,

like, Miss America, but honestly,

I've learned that I'm way stronger than I think.

Going through this experience, you have to be mentally there.

If you are not... It will show, you know?

And it will break you.

And also I learned

that we're way more similar than we realize.

Like, coming in, I definitely really wanted to make friends

and have that sense of community

because for us, we were stuck in the suburbs,

like, hiding in our house doing drag.

We were like caged animals,

never used to talking to people in drag before.

Do you still feel that way, like caged animals?

Sometimes I feel like a Chihuahua

or a rottweiler, one of those.

Sugar's going on her tangents.

But basically, I feel like

I learned a lot... [stifled laughter]

But mostly that... like she said,

that I'm strong enough.

But what's interesting,

I will say, is that...

Wait, I lost my thought.

[laughter and chatter]

- Listen, it's all right. - The last two brain cells.

You're my other brain cell. You find it.

Okay. Who was the first born?

Me. So I actually...

I'm born 57 minutes older.

And normally, twins are, like, one minute apart, but, um...

But I always say, I kicked you out of the womb.

- Yeah, kind of. - And you know, I was chillin'.

Well, I kicked you out of the competition so...

Oh. All: Ooh!

[laughter]

What were you doing in the womb for 57 minutes?

Oh, I was getting comfortable.

Imagine... okay, imagine being cooped up

in your mother's womb for, like, nine months.

Sweetie, I kicked her out, and I go,

ooh, I got some breathing room.

[laughter]

Now, Mistress, you had doubts about the twins at first why?

The Houston, Texas, drag scene's very traditional.

And we really don't have queens like Sugar and Spice.

So in that aspect, when I first saw them,

I was kind of like, bitch, stop playing in my profession.

I think that's a book title.

[laughter]

Drag is very serious to me.

And I'm the fucking gatekeeper of drag.

- Like, I don't care. - The mayor of Dragville.

Someone's gotta keep the gates.

A lot of us came up in the club scene,

and for me, when I saw the twins,

I felt the same way as Mistress.

I was like, stop playing in my profession.

And I had to humble myself

and realize that there's not one right way

to be a full-time drag queen.

I love that. Now, this season was

the era of the eras.

Take a look.

Well, girls, I'm officially entering my top era.

In the words of Mistress, I'm in my winning era.

I'm just so happy for you, 'cause I feel like

you're finally entering your bitch era.

[laughter]

I'm starting my Congeniality era right now.

[laughter]

Bitch, Mistress has more eras than Cher or Madonna, girl.

I am entering my angel era.

Fallen angel.

What Mistress era are we in right now?

We are in the top three era.

[laughter]

It's the end to my Congenial era.

I'm entering my chaotic era.

Oh, no. It wasn't chaotic before?

Shut up!

What I would like to see is her skinny era, bitch.

Let's see that.

[laughs]

[laughter]

So, Mistress,

what makes an era an era?

You know, a era... You know, some of the girls

I think heard "error"...

[laughter]

When you're in your era, it's however you're feeling,

like, right now I'm in my angelic era,

I'm feeling very congenial era.

So, like, you can have multiple going on at the same time.

And they can have multiple meanings.

Like, when I said I'm in my top era,

I meant on top of the toy shelves,

collector edition.

She's in her vers era now.

Yes.

Yes, of course.

Now, queens, is there anyone

who wants to announce a new era?

I'm in my screen time era.

[laughter]

That part.

It's been a really long time.

Any other eras before we move on?

Well, I'm in my nailification era.

I don't even consider myself on the show,

'cause I wasn't wearing nails then.

Both: You're not wearing nails now.

Uh... [laughter]

- She's in her glove era. - Oh, my God.

Well, queens, I wanna announce

my go-to-bed-at-8:00-p.m. era.

[laughter]

Now we're gonna be right back after this.

[Singing]

I bring the beat

Welcome back to "RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited."

Losing is the new winning, but this season,

everybody wanted to be number two.

Let's take a look.

I feel pretty good to have been in the top two.

I would like to say it's the top two.

- [laughs] - Let's go with that.

Okay. [laughter]

The CDC should really look into making

a drag delusion vaccine,

because at this point in the competition,

the drag delusion might be contagious.

Okay, so what's the rank?

Third.

Second.

First.

I think first, second.

[laughter]

First, second, third.

First, second.

Okay.

You said that you thought you were gonna be second.

- Mm-hmm. - And you were second.

[laughter]

Marcia thought she was in second place.

As someone who was there in reality,

um, she wasn't amazing.

I was behind you in the ranking.

Marcia, being realistic, I don't think you would be

behind her because your look is kind of cheap,

and I don't think during Snatch Game

- that you were that funny. - Ohh.

I mean, I really felt y'all were, like,

gonna be ahead of me. Um, how do you all feel?

- I'm surprised. - Yeah.

I really expected to win.

Are we that shocked?

Loosey thinks she should win every week.

I'm fucking pissed. Very, very upset

that I was not in the top.

Okay.

[laughter]

All right, let's talk about this, okay?

Now, Rosie O'Donnell versus Tim Gunn.

Mistress, Marcia, who's number two?

I think you're thinking about Rosie O'Donnell

mixed with Abby Lee Miller.

[laughter]

Um, you know, Marcia, I'll let you have it.

- What do you think, babe? - Yeah, I mean,

in terms of, like, the Snatch Game,

my impression was better than Rosie O'Miller.

- Rosie O'Miller? - Rosie O'Miller.

Um...

Queens, what do you think of that?

Well, it's not hard for you to impersonate a man.

- All: Ooh. - Okay, all right.

I feel like, even though people think it's funny

we're fighting for second place or here and there,

we still want our cahoots, bitch.

You know, the fans be making points systems.

- Exactly. - So it does matter at the end

of the day because that's how they rank it.

- But does it? - But also, in the argument

with Marcia, I don't care about being number two.

Actually, I never brought it up in "Untucked."

Marcia brought it up that she thought she ranked

higher than me, which is why I had to gather the girls

and clock the tea.

All right, next, in All Queens Go to Heaven,

Luxx versus Loosey.

Who's number two?

I would say that I'm number two.

[laughing] - Um, and I base that

strictly off of how it was called.

They called, Loosey, you're safe.

Luxx, you're safe. Sasha, you won.

So in my head, that's third, second, first.

But also, I just...

I'm always gonna think that I did amazing.

And I thought... And I thought that I did

a really good job in the challenge.

I got rave reviews for my runway.

And... I mean, as you did too.

But in my head, like... [laughter]

In my head, of course you're gonna put yourself...

- Like, you know. - Yeah.

All right, let's talk about the "50/50"

newsmagazine challenge.

Luxx versus Loosey again.

Who's number two?

I think I might have been number two.

[laughter]

Let's talk about both of those challenges

and who was number one though.

[all exclaiming]

Luxx and Loosey, why do you think

there was such tension between the two of you?

- Both: I don't know... - If I would call it...

[laughter]

I'll say it: sexual magnetism.

Oh, okay.

I think we just both really,

really, really wanted to win everything.

- Yeah. - And so when you get close,

it sucks... believe me.

- Yeah. - It sucks.

Your Joan Rivers in the Snatch Game was

- perfection. - Thank you.

But after being safe in Daytona Wind,

you were, and I quote,

both: "Fucking pissed."

[laughter]

Why? Why were you fucking pissed?

I... I took a couple more sips

of those House of Love cocktails

than maybe I should have.

- Uh-huh. - And, uh, you know...

- [laughs] - They'll get you, girl.

I was in my feels, and I felt like I, um...

I don't know, I just wanted to win.

Yeah. No, you were great in that.

Now, Mistress of course had something to say about that.

You had a term for what she was going through.

What was that?

You know, a little bit of drag delusion here and there.

Did anybody else suffer from drag delusion?

You know, it was going around to all the contestants.

All the girls were a little delusional at some point.

But then someone said I might have been patient zero.

So I don't know. [laughter]

And I think that person was absolutely right.

[laughter]

- Now, Amethyst and Robin... - Oh, boy.

You know Loosey from back home.

[laughter]

Did her reaction surprise you at all?

I distinctly remember... I think it was

right when I started drag, in the dressing room...

It was one of our first shows together...

And "Drag Race" was brought up.

And I... and I quote,

"If I don't win every fucking challenge on that show"...

She has drag delusion right now.

I don't know what she's talking about.

You lie, you lie, and you lie so much.

Now, Loosey, a lot of people really appreciated

your spirit and your talent.

And here's a message from one of them.

Okay.

Hey, this is Kev with a message for Loosey.

Hey, your performance in "Wigloose" was off the hook.

Condragulations, and lots of love.

You really know how to cut loose.

Cut, cut loose!

- [overlapping chatter] - Oh, my God.

That is absolutely bonkers.

Yes. One degree of Kevin Bacon.

And were you surprised by that?

Um, yeah, absolutely.

I mean, he... he tweeted at me a couples weeks ago,

which felt amazing, specifically because,

of course, he's famous for "Footloose."

But yeah, that was so cool.

- Oh, my God. - That's great.

Now, Loosey, in other news,

your original song, "Let Loose,"

has gone viral.

- Yes. - Let's take a look.

[lip-synching] So you better beware

Let loose, I said let loose

You're holdin' it together, baby, what's the use?

Let loose

[laughter]

- I love it. - But can we talk

about the international implications

of why that song went vi... Like, it's so...

Like, it was ironic that you were Loo...

And then you weren't loose, and then you were loose,

and that's how it became viral.

Like, you were so not loose, you were loose.

- Like, it's iconic. - Irene's line of,

"She's singing about letting loose,

- but she's standing there..." - Standing as rigid

- as a dead fish. - "Like a rigid fish."

[laughter]

So, Loosey, do you think you can let loose now?

Oh, I can definitely let loose...

If I listen to the song every day.

Okay, come on, every...

All the queens, let's say it.

All: Let loose!

We'll be right back after this.

[singing] Let loose, I said let loose

You're holdin' it together, baby, what's the use?

Let loose

[upbeat music]

Welcome back to "RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited"

with the queens of season 15.

Now, every week we look forward to a lip sync for your life.

But this season, we had lip syncs to die for.

Our first lip sync was Sasha versus Anetra

in the LaLaPaRuza.

Now, Sasha, what was your state of mind

going into that lip sync?

I was ready to dance with this one,

'cause I know she's a powerhouse.

Right, no, so you're both very young.

How long do you think you can be able to do

all of that kind of acrobatics?

Like, ten more minutes.

[laughter]

And then it's over.

And so what do you other queens think

of that lip sync in particular?

- Oh, it was... - Oh, it was everything.

It was hands down one of the most amazing lip syncs.

I'll never count to eight the same way again.

[laughter]

I think we're all happy we didn't have

to lip-synch against either of them.

All: Yeah.

Up next, the lip sync Michelle Visage called

her favorite of all time.

That's Anetra versus Marcia.

Marcia, what happened out there?

I said, you know what,

we're gonna strap on the performer boots,

and we're gonna just give it everything we've got.

And if we're gonna go out,

we're gonna go out kicking and backbending, I guess.

Well, you certainly did.

You were fantastic.

In fact, you know, the Internet lit up

because they felt it should have been a double save.

I mean, there's definitely validation in it.

But I mean, I think... I'm a very strong performer.

I know that about myself. But I was, at the time...

And I still am a little bit... A little green for drag.

So I tried my darndest.

Yeah. Now, did either of you watch

that lip sync in a public place,

like at a viewing party?

I was at a viewing party, yes.

- Uh-huh. - And what was

the reaction in the room?

It was like watching straight people watch,

like, football.

- Yes. - Not the halftime show,

'cause that's for us.

[laughter]

I don't it's a coincidence that Anetra was in two

of the best lip syncs of the season.

- You're a phenomenal performer. - Thank you.

Every time you would start flubbing a challenge,

I'd get excited.

[laughter]

We get to see her perform tonight.

Do a trick, pony.

Yeah, now, in the LaLaPaRuza,

you all had to make several many choices.

Now, Malaysia...

- Oh, gosh. - You were up first.

Let's take a look.

Malaysia,

now you get to choose your opponent.

Girl, just say my name. Come on.

Give the girls what they want, Malaysia versus Mistress.

Who do you choose?

[dramatic music]

Marcia Marcia Marcia.

[laughter]

Why'd you pick me?

Um, it was no reason.

Honestly, I just went blank,

and I was like... You was next to me.

I call bullshit. I feel like you really thought

you were gonna slay Marcia.

No. I mean...

[laughter]

Now, Malaysia, why did you pick Marcia?

I don't know. [laughs]

Still you don't know?

Honestly...

- Go ahead. - When you look back

at the show, um, Mistress had already put

a target on Marcia, Loosey, and Spice,

and named them the three weakest lip-synchers.

But I always gave...

- When did that happen? - Marcia her praise,

especially after seeing her talent show.

I had never seen Spice or Loosey perform

besides "Letting Loose."

Um... [laughter]

Mistress had her eye on another song.

And she told me that she would do

the song that I wanted to do, which was Celine,

"It's All Coming Back to Me Now."

Yeah, I was like, she gonna flip the script, so.

And when I was looking, I think Marcia was next to me,

so that was the easy choice.

That was a lovely fairy tale.

Let me give y'all the truth.

[laughter]

So my sister made the right decision,

because I'm a filthy fucking liar.

I would not have chose Celine Dion.

We would've been twirling to "Tell It to My Heart."

So I think Malaysia kind of knew what's up,

'cause she's not dumb, so I'll give it to you, sister.

But also, I got that leg up in the air, bitch.

- [overlapping chatter] - Get that leg up.

Now, Marcia, do you buy

Malaysia's description of how it happened?

When you're up there, you kind of just...

You kind of black out,

and you're like, I'll do this.

Um, either way, I... I wasn't worried about anyone,

except for maybe, obviously, the two on the end over there.

- [laughs] - Yeah.

Now, Sasha, did you know

everybody felt that way about you?

Um...

uh, yeah.

[laughter]

I'm not in my congenial era.

No, no, I get it. I get it.

All right, next, after Mistress won her lip sync,

she got a cold reception in the Werkroom.

[muted scream] - Let's take a look.

- Jax, right? - Oh, my God,

- Jax, no question. - Jax for sure.

Ugh, and I bet Mistress is gonna

feel some sort of way. But here's the thing...

Now, y'all knew the heavyweight champ

- was gonna win. - Oh, my God!

It was really nothing.

[laughter]

Ooh, why you gagging, honey?

Bitch!

Work. We'll be honest,

we thought Jax won that lip sync.

- Both: Yeah. - Oh, well, y'all need

to get y'all's eyes checked, honey.

- Uh! - So why'd you think Jax won?

She was very, like, vroom, vroom.

- You weren't giving 100%. - Yeah.

Whether you thought I did a great job or not,

I'm still here, so it doesn't...

- Absolutely - Really matter to me.

Since the girls wanna start reading as soon as I walk in,

they changed my whole mood too,

so I'm like, let's get right into it.

Like, Loosey, I mean, I feel like you definitely lucked out,

like, getting to pick Spice, no tea.

- Yeah, yeah. - Also, I didn't

take into account that the girls who people didn't

want to go against would be there to the very end.

"All of the girls that, like, people didn't think were gonna

be good lip-synchers were picked first, so."

And I was like, well, you can go fuck yourself.

Oh, my God, don't put that in there.

I didn't say that. Sorry.

Oh, my God, it's gonna be used. No!

Mistress, what had happened?

The lip sync between me and Jax is very...

It's two different types of performances

and two different types of drag.

My whole perspective on drag is keeping

old-school and traditional drag alive,

and that's how I perform the song when it's given to me.

So I think in this day and age,

a lot of queens and a lot of people at home are used

to seeing people kick, flip, and split,

which of course I can do and keep up with any of y'all...

[laughing] - But I think

that we're playing a game.

Some people are just worrying about surviving.

I'm worried about winning.

I know Jax is a great performer,

so either way, one of us would've had to go

against Sasha and Anetra because that's what was left.

So you obviously wanna save something

you could showcase later and get that upper hand, so...

- Okay. - It's no tea.

[giggles] I still think Jax won.

[laughter]

Okay, but here's my question. Jax.

- Yeah? - You saw it.

Do you think you ate Mistress or naw?

I... honestly, like, I think it was pretty balanced.

- Like, I'm not gonna, like... - I agree.

Maybe I'll take a note out of, like, Luxx's book

and be like, no, I fucking won that.

Um...

Well, I just don't do it out of nowhere.

There's a rhyme and a reason. [laughter]

- Hold on, let's not get crazy. - Hold on, whoa.

Loosey, what do you have to say?

Uh, I agree with Salina. I do think that Jax won.

And the reason why I said, at the time,

"Oh, my God, I feel like you didn't really give it,"

is because you were talking a really,

really, really big game...

- Yeah. - Before the LaLaPaRuza.

I found it funny that those girls were

saying that because none of them are

in the finale, none of them would've held

a candle to either of us. All: Ooh!

I was just answering the question that was asked.

I mean, we see who's at the end and who's not.

[laughter]

Well, as they say,

all is fair in love and lip syncs.

And speaking of love...

[gasps and oohs]

This season, Robin Fierce and Amethyst admitted

to a preshow romance.

[gasps] - Let's take a look.

Now, Miss Robin, I think it's time you spill the beans

about you and Miss Amethyst.

So Robin mentioned it in "Untucked" that

we used to date.

There was a time that me

and Amethyst dated for a short...

- Stop! - Stop!

A short time.

Scissor sister.

[laughter]

I feel like it was mutual.

- We both had our own... - They always say that.

Robin said you wouldn't text her back.

[all exclaim]

Wait.

No, I said she's a bad texter

and I am busy, bitch. Okay?

I will admit, it was my decision

to not pursue things further.

Ultimately, I think we were looking for different things.

And that's fine.

As of right now, that chapter is closed

and will not be opening up

any time soon for me.

Okay, Robin. What do you have to say about that?

I think that I remember things how they happened

and some people have drag delusion, you know?

It just is what it is.

Consider that stolen.

[laughter]

Amethyst, what do you have to say?

The chapter is closed. That's what I have to say.

All right.

So what advice do you have for a queen

dating another queen?

Don't shit where you sleep.

Okay. Have any of you other girls

dated other queens?

I turn the boys I date into queens.

Yeah, they're all queens eventually.

I mean, all roads lead to drag queens, right?

Now, listen, kids.

- I am the yenta of drag. - Oh.

So I wanna know, are there any other crushes

that you kids had that I should know about?

- Aura? - Yeah?

[laughter]

Not very pointed there, Ru. [laughter]

I'm gonna have to say I had a little crush on Poppy.

- Ahh! - Oh, wow.

Do you guys remember when Poppy left,

and she left a note,

and I think Mistress flipped that paper and the note.

And what did it say, Mistress?

It said, "Aura, please fuck me."

[laughter]

Poppy, do you still feel the same way?

No, not this.

I'm embarrassed.

[laughs]

Yeah, it's 7 inches. Why not?

[laughter]

Aura, is there anything else you wanna tell me?

Yes. I have a big announcement.

Speaking of love, I'm actually getting married.

I got engaged.

[all exclaim]

[laughter]

Everyone's still on the guest list.

For gifts, don't send me anything.

Just donate to the ACLU Drag Defense Fund.

- That's great. - Yes.

Thank you, ladies. Let's take a break.

We're gonna be right back with more

"RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited." after this.

[RuPaul's "Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve & Talent"]

[singing] Charisma, uniqueness

Welcome back to "RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited."

Now, ladykins, we have fan questions.

[gasps] - Ooh.

First up, from Drag Race Live

at Flamingo Las Vegas,

it's Coco Montrese.

I have a question for Marcia.

Marcia, how are your makeup skills these days?

Oh, and girl, how fuckin' orange do I look?

[laughter]

I would say that my makeup skills have

- most definitely improved. - Absolutely.

Seeing yourself on TV teaches you a lot.

And I'm very excited to announce

a new project coming up.

Marcia x3 Cosmetics is launching very soon.

It is some of my favorite signature products.

Okay, cool.

Is it just eyeliner? [laughter]

There is some ChapStick in there too.

Oh, I love that.

Next question.

Hi. It's Asia O'Hara,

and I have a question for Sasha Colby.

Now, you are indeed every drag queen's

favorite drag queen,

but who is your favorite drag queen?

And you can only pick one.

Oh!

It's gonna be a lot of my friends are gonna

be really upset with this if I don't say their names.

But my most inspirational drag performer would

have to be Monica Munro.

She is a former Miss Continental...

Continental 1994.

And if you YouTuber her, it's pretty much

my whole drag for the past 20 years.

- Thank you, Monica. - All right.

Next question.

Hi, I'm DeJa Skye from Fresno, California,

and I have a burning question for the diva Robin Fierce.

Now, mama, I'm in the market for a new flat-screen TV.

Can you give me the drag discount?

We could get her a good 75-inch, bitch.

I could sneak it out the back door.

[laughs] - Ooh.

So, Robin, you work at Best Buy,

- is that right? - I used to.

[laughter]

Oh, my God.

This is when I took forever to do my makeup.

So I would wake up early as hell in the morning,

do the makeup, go to work like this,

and then I would go to the gigs right after,

'cause a bitch gotta work.

Did you sell more in drag than when you weren't in drag?

I think I sold about the same.

Some people didn't realize I was a drag queen.

They would come in and be like, "Hey, who's that lady that

I talked to yesterday? She was so lovely."

And then they would point to me and I would just be like,

"Hi." [laughter]

- Out of drag. - Thank you for that.

Next question.

Hi, it's me, Aquaria...

The bitch from New York City and winner of season 10.

Irene Dubois, you were trolling all your cast members

all season online.

Is it true that any troll is a goal?

I just... I don't take things seriously.

I love to have fun with the girlies online.

I love to have fun with them in the Werkroom, too,

but I didn't get a chance, so online was all I had, girls.

Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

So which of you queens felt

that Irene came for them?

I blocked her.

[all exclaim]

[laughter]

- Are you for real? - No.

Wait, who's Irene? I'm kidding.

- Lying like usual. - I think Irene literally...

Every girl that walked in that door,

- Irene came for them. - Yes.

We just seen the one. [laughs]

Was anybody offended by what she said?

I mean, I don't think it really matter

if we were offended, 'cause I guess karma got her.

- [laughter] - Oh!

Still won more money than you did this season, bitch.

Ahh! [laughter]

I have to say, I remember after the first day

meeting Irene, I went over to Spice and I was like,

"They casting some mean queens this season."

But honestly, once I really got to know her,

there is a heart under all that crazy.

- There really is. - Thank you.

All right. Let's go to the next question.

Hey. It's Derrick Barry, bitch.

And I have a question for Loosey.

So based on some of your tweets,

are you a queen who blames it on the edit?

I was hacked!

[laughter]

- Down. - Yes, of course.

Do you feel the way you were portrayed in the competition

is who you are?

I think that it showed

a very specific side to who I am,

but didn't show every aspect of who I am, you know?

I know that I came off uptight,

but now I've let loose, and all of that is gone.

Okay. All right.

And moms have questions too.

Ooh.

- Hi. - Ahh! That's my mom!

I'm Robin Fierce's mom, Rhonda,

and I have a question.

Mistress, why were you coming for my child about her wig

- in the first episode? - Oh!

Lace was reflecting

from the duct tape under the cap.

Prep is everything in drag.

She should have wore a wig cap.

Vinyl duct tape with all the lighting

was a no-no, baby.

Are you jealous of her, Boogie?

Hey, Robin.

Thank you, Mama. [laughs]

Well, there's a very simple explanation.

I was in my chaotic era when I first came in,

so that was the old me.

We're in a new era... My angelic era.

- Oh. - Very congenial.

So I'm sending you and Robin my kisses.

And if you didn't like it,

have a blessed night, as will I.

[laughter]

Okay.

Other moms have questions too.

Hi, everyone.

I'm Jane, Aura's mom,

and I have a question for Spice.

Why did you say Aura should have been in the bottom

for Snatch Game?

Don't you know she would have sent you home

in the lip sync?

Ahh!

Oh, my God. Mom.

Oh, okay. Wait.

Ooh.

The moms are spicy, bitch.

I'm obsessed. I'm obsessed.

You know what?

Watching that back, I remember I texted you.

I was like, "Oh, girl, I didn't s...

It wasn't you I was talking about."

And then I was like, I said it was you.

And then I was like, what did I say?

'Cause I was talking about someone...

I don't even know, but, you know, you know.

But you would have ate me up for sure. [laughs]

So Spice, are you speaking English?

- [laughter] - She's speaking Long Island.

You're speaking your "hot and bored" language.

Yes.

The hot and bored girlies will know.

They're, like, tuning in to the frequency.

- You know. - Well, good.

I'm glad we got that sorted.

[laughter]

And we'll be right back after this.

[RuPaul's "U Wear it Well"]

[singing] You wear it well

Welcome back.

This season featured our biggest reading challenge ever.

Still, some of the reads were never seen until now.

Take a look.

[inhales] Okay.

The Robin Fierce.

You know, after your run here,

you might have to change your name to the Robin "Fine."

[laughter]

Werk.

Jax, I love watching you flip...

from the top two to the bottom three.

Oh, with you, girl.

[laughter]

Oh, Luxx, I love your gap.

- Thanks. - And I'm talking about the gap

between your beauty and your brain.

[laughter]

Blair St. Clair. [laughter]

I forgot. I'm sorry.

Blu Hydrangea... oh, my gosh.

Fuck, I'm getting my twinks mixed up.

You know the difference between Mistress and a brick?

- No. What? - A brick gets laid.

[laughter]

Now, Sasha, I know that the pineapple

is a sign of welcome.

Is that why you have one tattooed

- on the inside of your lip? - Ooh.

[laughter]

Luxx Noir London, your teeth are so fucked up,

your tongue looks like it's behind bars.

It's only one gap.

[laughter]

Anetra, we get it.

You can walk the duck.

But can you talk... period?

[laughter]

Aura Mayari,

more like "bore to my eyes, eek."

[laughter]

Spice... you need some.

Mammethyst... uh, Amethyst.

No! No!

Now, not a lot of people know this,

but when Amethyst first started drag a month ago,

she expressed interest in being my drag daughter.

And after seeing you in this competition,

I can truly say that will never happen.

[laughter]

Malaysia Babydoll Foxx.

I didn't know they made a Fat Albert baby doll.

And I didn't know they made a fat Cabbage Patch.

- [laughter] - Oh.

- Y'all cut up. - Damn.

Okay, ladies.

For the queens who didn't get a chance

to read this season,

the library is about to reopen.

Up first, Sugar.

- Yes, ma'am. - Yes, ma'am.

- Daughter, gather them. - Okay.

Miss Mother, hopefully I make you proud.

Irene, Luxx coined you as the swamp witch of the season.

She's absolutely right,

because what witchcraft did you pull

to only be in one episode and still get

more screentime than Robin?

[laughter and shouting]

Clock that tea.

- Damn. - Well, now that you went,

maybe I should do a little read for you,

'cause I never got to read you.

- Ooh. - Yes, ma'am.

My sweet Sugar, you know,

you and Michelle Visage actually have a lot in common.

- Oh. - You know,

living in someone else's shadow.

[laughter]

Princess Poppy.

Aura Mayari, all of those muscles

and only your ass is ripped.

[laughter and shouting]

You would know.

And the rumors are true.

I did give someone on set COVID.

That's why all season long, Loosey LaDuca had no taste.

[laughter and shouting]

- Irene. - Okay.

Sasha Colby, Michelle Visage said that you are

a whole lot more than a body,

and she's absolutely right.

There's also about eight syringes of lip filler

and two buckets of industrial-grade silicone

in your ass.

That's you. [laughter]

Salina EsTitties, I have met drag queens

with fake asses, fake titties, fake lashes,

but you're the first one I've ever met with a fake accent.

[laughter]

Okay, white girl.

- Let me do a couple. - All right.

Amethyst, or as Robin Fierce knows you,

arm and fist.

- Ooh. - Oh.

And Mistress Isabelle Brookes,

the only thing shorter than those heels

is that life expectancy.

- [laughter] - Okay, ladies.

The library is closed... Officially.

Now, because reading is fundamental,

I'm happy to announce "And Don't F$%k it Up:

An Oral History of RuPaul's Drag Race"

is available this June, wherever fine books are sold.

Now, where's the... Where's that book?

- Oh. - Ooh. Ooh.

Yeah. Uh-huh.

See, Mistress, that's why I can't have

a damn thing nice.

I enjoyed it, though.

I didn't know you knew how to read.

[laughter]

You know, the queens always create drama,

but this season had a series of "gates."

Take a look.

We personally would love to go with metal.

Does that conflict with anybody?

- We want... - We want metal.

We wanna do heavy metal.

[dramatic music]

Okay, well, we're doing metal,

So I guess it leaves them with country.

- We want metal. - We're gonna do metal.

I think we're gonna do metal, yeah.

I think that we should just get metal, period.

Like, why do you guys think you can do heavy metal?

I'm literally already wearing the heavy metal hat.

I'm not taking it off.

It is Metalgate, baby.

The reason why I stood my ground is because

I felt like their group was being bullies.

I apologize if I made you feel that way,

because that was not my intent.

And if you don't feel like talking right now, that's fine.

That's all you gotta say.

[laughs]

It's not funny.

I'm laughing 'cause it's fucking awkward

because we were already in [indistinct] bitch.

Now you're trying to piss me off?

I apologize if I made you feel that way,

but at the end of the day, I'm not gonna apologize

for how I felt in that moment and for how it went.

And that's the same way.

And that's why I said what I said.

Oh.

Beyoncé looks are really fun.

I loved wearing my look.

I felt really, really beautiful in it.

Why weren't you pregnant, though?

I... she wasn't very far along

when she announced her pregnancy.

You could see the bump on the red carpet

in the orange dress,

and you could see it in the performance.

I feel like you're insulting Bey right now,

- and, like, I don't want that. - I'm not insulting her

'cause she actually was pregnant.

I'm insulting you 'cause you had a corset on.

But she wasn't showing in her pregnancy.

You can go back and look.

I don't have to, 'cause I know.

I know, too, 'cause I did the look.

The two roles that I would wanna do

are Heaven and Christian.

I would also...

I'm also very interested in Heaven.

Okay, so who's gonna be Heaven?

I'm gonna be Heaven.

I would really like to be Heaven.

My energy is very much like this character of Heaven.

I don't... I don't really see that.

I don't see it for you.

I want Heaven. "No, I want Heaven."

Welcome to Heavengate.

Oh, my goodness. Okay.

Let's first start with Metalgate.

Malaysia, why was getting metal so important to you?

Honestly, just where I've come from,

I've always had to, like, prove myself.

And I think at that point, like,

with Mistress and Luxx, it triggered me

because I was thinking about a lot of things from back home,

because I know, watching it back,

that they were having a good time

and they were just trolling me.

Definitely Mistress.

And I can say that me and Luxx weren't...

We didn't have that same, like...

- Rapport. - That... yeah.

That me and Mistress had.

Then I didn't understand your personality and your sarcasm,

and you have a very dry sense of humor.

- Very true. - So for me,

everything that you said or anything,

it was, like, taken very seriously.

So in that moment, I was just like,

"No, bitch. I'm not backing down."

My biggest regret was, like, calling them bullies,

'cause I know that sometimes that word can

be a trigger, especially for the fanbase,

and easily make them targets, and they are far from that.

So, Mistress, what's your take on this?

Malaysia's my sister.

We had that rapport already

at this point in the competition,

and I actually didn't know

that they were being serious,

they were actually upset about it,

till the "Untucked" happened.

You also like to push people's buttons.

Yeah, no, of course. I was having a good time.

That's what she said. Like, it was all in fun.

That's why when it got to the point

where I kind of pushed her too much,

I knew where it was coming from and I wish that

we could have talked it out in that moment.

But also, we're kind of the same person

where when we're upset it's don't talk to us,

because bitch will be ready to pop off.

Okay. All right.

Now, next up, Beyoncé Baby Bumpgate.

Loosey and Luxx, for the sake of the baby,

who was right?

- I was right. - Luxx was right.

- [laughter] - Yay!

The only thing I take a little bit of an issue with

is that you claim that I wore a corset.

I have never worn a corset in my life.

You know that.

I may have misspoke.

I didn't mean to call it a corset.

Maybe you were just wearing a shaper.

Okay. [laughs]

Next up, Heavengate.

When it came to choosing roles in "Wigloose,"

things got tight.

Loosey, why do you think the girls are coming for you?

I... I couldn't tell you.

The reason why I was so upset with Mistress at the time

is that you had your role. You were sitting pretty.

Like, you should have been just good and happy.

So then when Luxx and I were

discussing who should get the role,

I was like, "Why is Mistress in this now?"

Like, why she gotta cut up?

I think, for me, it was the constant bickering.

It's like, girl, let's just decide

who does the fuckin' role, but also...

You made the bickering worse, though, girl.

I... of course. I'm Mistress.

That's what I do. [laughter]

Why did you think Loosey was being fake?

Through the whole competition or this moment?

[laughter]

I'm not even trying to be funny.

- I'm being serious. - No.

- During the exchange. - In this moment?

'Cause... so it kind of showed

and played through in the show.

In real life she was saying, you know,

"I identify with this character.

This is me," but the character description

is someone young and all this other stuff

like... I mean, that sounds so shady.

I'm not saying you're a old-ass bitch.

That's not what I'm saying.

I think you just did. [laughter]

So, Luxx, why did you eventually give the role up?

I feel like people have tried to twist it to me,

like, trying to twist some sort of mind game.

I genuinely just saw that Loosey was

very upset that she didn't get the role.

So let me just give her the role so everybody's happy,

because at the end of the day we all have to work together.

But also, from a strategy standpoint,

if she was to flub at the lead,

it would be a bigger flub on her part.

- Oh. - But that's just...

That wasn't even, like, my main frame of thinking.

It was just a side frame of thinking?

I kind of thought of that after the fact.

- Ah. - But I was like, hmm.

Now, Anetra, how did you feel about Heaven's Gate?

I loved all of it.

Just 'cause, like, drag queens fighting over anything

is always entertaining.

Well, ladies, the Rusical turned out

to be so fabulous.

It's something you can all be proud of.

And last but not least, the 40-inchgate.

- Luxx! - Yes?

- Do you know what this is? - Oh, my God.

A 40-inch unit, I guess. [laughter]

Wait, I think I have a measuring tape.

Are we really about to do this?

Yeah. Let's find out.

Yours is definitely longer than mine,

but they're close.

Well, this is 40 inches.

Yours truly is probably, like, the same length.

Yours just gets a little, like, withered at the end.

Withered. [laughter]

- Withered. - Now, was your weave

40 inches or not, Luxx?

- You know... - It wasn't.

In school, they teach you if you have a number over 35,

you round to the nearest ten, right?

Well, I'd love to get to the bottom of it right now.

[all exclaim]

Wait. I do have something you can measure.

You can measure these legs.

[laughter]

I just wanna say, in that moment,

I genuinely, like, as a sister,

was trying to look out for my new friend

because I wanted to know who had sold you

that 32-inch wig and told you it was 40!

Hey, listen. You watch your mouth.

My mother hand-made me that wig, okay?

Your mom needs to get her eyes checked.

It was a family heirloom. Thank you.

How dare you...

Oh, that's why it was so fried.

- Oh. - No, I'm kidding.

It was a beautiful wig. It was a beautiful wig.

A beautiful 32-inch wig.

Well, I'm glad we got that sorted out.

We'll be right back after this.

[singing] The world is your runway

Welcome back.

Now, we are one week away from crowning

America's next drag superstar.

Right now, let's talk fashion.

- Ooh. - Category is unseen looks

from the eliminated queens.

Now, first up, Amethyst.

Rip Her to Shreds.

- Oh, she's silly. - Oh, my gosh.

Tell us about this, Amethyst.

This is actually a reference

to "Dennis the Menace" the movie.

There's a really bitchy office worker

that I wanted to kind of, like,

make a character, like, off of her.

I love the production behind it all,

the storyline.

The picture on the right,

it looks like someone just went...

And you went, "Oh, not my gumdrop buttons."

You look like you are...

- What? - I love it.

- The acting, it is... wow. - All right.

Next up is Aura's Night of 1,000 Beyoncés look.

Aura, tell us about this.

First of all, Beyoncé is my ultimate, like, idol.

And I was so, so, so excited for this runway

and just too bad I couldn't...

I couldn't make it to walk that runway.

This look is amazing, bitch.

I think it's sickening, mama.

Why weren't you pregnant, though?

[laughter]

Mm. Yeah. Yeah.

Next up, Malaysia's Everybody Say Glove look.

- Ooh. - Yes.

Oh, my goodness.

All right, Malaysia. What's the story?

I wanted to make homage to your line,

"Everybody say love."

And I wear my heart on my sleeve.

That's why I have the puffer hearts on the sleeve.

What do you queens think of this look?

It's kind of giving, like, sexy Mrs. Claus.

It's, like, really sickening.

It is cute. I love it.

Santa, baby.

Can you put me in touch with the person

- who retouched this photo? - Oh!

- Oh. Oh. - Wow.

Baby, I'm the girl in the picture.

All right. Next up,

Irene Dubois' Puffer Please.

- Ooh. - Yes.

Oh, my goodness.

Yeah. Who retouched this?

[laughter]

The best part about this season

is going onto social media

and seeing what look you're gonna post.

It's been, like, such a treat.

She's a look queen.

Yeah. Yeah.

Tell us about this look.

So I wanted to go more vintage with the Puffer look,

so I opted for a cocoon coat,

like, a Sunset Boulevard moment.

I'm very, very proud of my package.

And to know my peers appreciate

the work that I put into it, it really means a lot to me.

- So thank you, guys, so much. - All right.

It's time to play America's favorite game...

Toot or Boot.

- Uh-oh. - Oh, boy.

Now, I'll show you a look of this season.

If you like it, toot it.

If you don't, boot it.

- Here we go. - Oh, no.

Up first, Sasha Colby's Puffer Please.

Toot or boot?

- All: Toot. - Tooty-toot-toot.

It's everything that Sasha embodies.

It's fearless. It's sexy.

It's just everything.

It's so gorgeous.

And a little ho-y underneath.

A little ho-y, of course.

- Well, actually, a lotta ho-y. - A little?

Up next, Malaysia's entrance look.

All: Toot.

It's just so cute. It's bright.

It's everything that I love about Malaysia.

Marcia's Beautiful Nightmare.

All: Boot.

Thank you so much, everyone.

Wait, I think I love it.

[laughter]

It's giving me, like, "Monster High,"

- like, teacher. - Thank you so much.

Irene, you booted this. Why?

It's... not good. [laughter]

Up next, Anetra's Crystallized look.

All: Toot.

- Mad toot. - Ooh.

Anetra, I will say this was rude

and you made us all look

rinky-dinky hokey-pokey next to you.

Wow, it's gorgeous.

Watching her do all the spikes,

I'm like, "What did you just, like"...

It was amazing.

Loosey's Bag Ball look.

- Boot! - Boot.

- I don't know what it is. - Platform boot.

- Boot! Boot! - What is that?

This is a toot. This is a toot.

I think it's an experimental look

that will surpass time.

People years from now, they're gonna go,

"That was the one." [laughter]

Okay.

Yeah, I will tell my grandchildren

that this is drag. Yeah.

This is drag.

Up next, Luxx's Crystalized look.

All: Toot.

Shoot. I loved it.

This was actually, if not my favorite,

in, like, my top two of, like,

anybody's runway in this entire season.

Thank you.

Fun fact... that is Poppy's wig

that I have with me right here.

Oh.

[laughter]

I don't, obviously.

I'm never getting it back.

Mistress's Night of 1,000 Beyoncés.

- Toot. - Boot.

I love this picture of the three of us.

You, me, and Sugar. [laughter]

- Yeah. - I'ma boot it.

It's the nude cutouts on the side for me.

Well, actually, it's reflective spandex.

If you see, it's all the same nude.

It is not reflecting the right color, though.

- It's my shade. - Ooh.

You know.

Up next, Jax's Beautiful Nightmare.

- Toot or boot? - Boot.

Oh. Oh.

I had an entirely different concept in mind.

Things didn't play out the way I wanted to,

so boot.

My mom would say growing up,

that girls don't fart, they fluff.

So you know what? This is a fluff.

[laughter]

I don't know what that means.

Inside the mind of Sugar and Spice.

All right. Up next,

Robin Fierce's Who is She? look.

All: Toot.

- Shoot. - Gorgeous.

And, Irene, what do you love about this?

I just think that this is really...

It's, like, exemplifies what makes Robin... fierce.

- Fierce. - You look fabulous.

She looks like an elegant lady.

I've known Robin her entire drag career,

and she's always been so beautiful,

but this was like a...

It was like the final form of Robin Fierce.

And you just came out and you just

- absolutely murdered it. - Thank you.

And finally, Aura's Beautiful Nightmare.

Toot or boot?

All: Toot.

I'm gonna toot the dress and boot the acting.

Yeah. [laughter]

- Very loose quotes, "acting." - Yeah.

I thought I was killin' it, girl.

Girl, you thought you were serving.

All right.

In a season full of sickening fashions,

someone's gotta be the worst.

It's time for the prestigious Golden Boot Award.

Please welcome last season's Golden Boot Award winner,

fashion icon Maddy Morphosis.

Ahh!

Thank you, Ru.

Whenever people say it's an honor just to be nominated,

they probably weren't nominated for a Golden Boot.

Still, I'm thrilled to announce

the winner of this season's Golden Boot Award,

brought to you by got2b... For whoever you wanna be.

Can someone let Taraji know

that I put a gold chain on Papi?

[laughter]

And the nominees are Marcia Marcia Marcia

with her Tie-Dye to Die for look.

Jax for her Tie-Dye to Die For look.

That was a rough runway, wasn't it?

And Salina EsTitties for her Metallica runway.

And the Golden Boot goes to...

[suspenseful music]

Salina EsTitties.

[cheers and applause]

Oh, pit crew.

Ooh.

- Ooh. - Okay.

[indistinct chatter]

Thank you, Daddy.

Con-drag-ulations Salina.

Is there anything you'd like to say?

I finally won something on "Drag Race"!

[laughter]

We'll be right back.

[singing] Doo doo doo doo doo

Welcome back to "RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited."

When I ask the queens who should go home tonight

and why, I never know what to expect.

Take a look.

Loosey.

Salina has been in the bottom a lot.

Anetra.

Salina Es Titties.

Mistress.

If I had to be honest,

I'm tired of being at the Sasha Colby Meet and Greet.

- Salina! - I don't see future of drag

when I see Loosey.

- Sasha. - I would send...

Loosey or Luxx home.

- Luxx. - You know, I think, really

analyzing the lineup that we have here tonight,

I would say that Sasha Colby does drag on a level

that is clean, cut, concise.

But she just puts that little extra thing on it.

Salina brings something so unique

with her perspective.

It has so much heart.

Mistress, she also has a unique spin on what she does,

because she's not afraid to push the boundary.

That is something that is very admirable.

You never know what to expect from Anetra,

and I think that the unexpected

is something that I look for.

Loosey does what she does exceptionally well.

However, Loosey's drag, I would have to say,

for a lack of a better word,

is a little on the more generic side.

Very congenial, aunty.

Everybody else on this lineup

brings something a little different and unique,

so tonight I'd have to say Loosey for those reasons.

Okay, first up,

let's go to Ted Talk speaker Luxx...

why did you feel compelled to name check all the girls?

I genuinely do not know.

In my head, I wanted to give like rhyme and reason to it,

so that's kind of why I did it.

It was very entertaining.

- Thank you. - Yeah.

So Loosey, how did you feel about Luxx choosing you?

Obviously, not great.

I mean, it sucked, it hurt. It really hurt.

I don't know if I necessarily believe

that you didn't go in knowing what you were gonna do,

'cause it seemed very premeditated.

I fully didn't. I'm kinda just really good

at talking on the drop of a dime.

I just don't think it was necessary

to punch down so much.

It hurt, it really hurt, and I respect your opinion.

You can think that I am generic,

but it would have hurt enough if you just called me generic.

- Mm, mm. - It really hurt

that you went down the line and said

this is the reason why everyone here is a star

except for her.

You seemed to take joy in doing that.

I did make it a point to say

that what you do, you do it exceptionally well.

It took a lot of nerve

to say everything I do has been done before

while wearing a wig

that was on the runway already on a puppet.

- Ooh! - I had never said that

everything you had done had been done before.

Those were the words, Luxx.

Believe me, it's engrained in my mind.

I never said everything you've done

has been done before.

- Okay. - It was inevitable

that somebody's feelings were going to be hurt

by somebody saying they should go home.

I did not take joy out of answering the question.

I'm not a mean or malicious person like that.

Looking back, it did kind of suck.

It seemed like I was dogpiling on you,

but that was not my intention at all.

Luxx going down the line

actually felt really good for me...

[laughter]

So, thanks for that, girl.

You know, I answered the way that I did,

and I do apologize.

I was the first person that answered.

I didn't know if anyone was going to do

"this person's my biggest competition."

I didn't know if people were gonna do track record.

If I had to have picked one other person,

it would have gone based on

the challenge that we had just done.

- Ow. Who's that? - I would have chosen Luxx.

Not because you hurt my feelings,

but you're the only person I could think of

who struggled with the choreography

- in the Rusical. - Me? I was the only person?

Yeah.

You were struggling in the beginning,

and Mistress was struggling.

- Now why am I in it? - And Anetra was struggling.

So how was I the one

who was struggling with the choreography?

Luxx, you were the only person who,

when we were filming the actual Rusical,

you messed up the choreography.

I, like, turned the wrong way or something.

If it was based on that exact challenge,

that is how I would have answered.

All right. And finally,

a serious question for Mistress.

Did you, indeed, get a photo

at the Sasha Colby Meet and Greet?

- [laughter] - You know,

I didn't have my wrist band on hand,

but of course I snuck in. And I was like,

"Oh, my God, Sasha, I love you so much!" Aaah!

And she stole all my merch.

But listen, I did want an updated one,

so, aunty, look at the camera, let's pose.

[RuPaul laughing]

What did she write on the picture, Mistress?

Uh, M-I-B... Major Intestinal Blockage.

[laughter]

All right, it's now time for a segment we're calling

Celebrities Are Just Like Us.

They crazy. Take a look.

- This is everything... - This little latex moment...

Thank you. I feel like a...

Like a condom a little bit.

Give walking protection.

Yes!

It's gonna be really hard

for me to not leave here today

and like follow you all.

Just, I ruin the season immediately.

You're the one posting on Reddit.

[laughter]

I run that page.

I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

- Thank you so much. - Is this vodka?

- Okay. - There was no way around it...

I'm gonna sneeze.

Aah!

- Excuse me. - Threw her back out.

I have to tell you something.

When I told my daughter I was gonna be on this show,

she actually started cussing me out.

"You didn't invite me? Why didn't you...

What is wrong with you? You're a bad dad!"

"Honey, I work with De Niro!"

"Dad, I don't care!

It's not RuPaul!"

Oh, my God, you guys are so cute.

You're so pretty!

You do not look basic.

You sold the shit outta that line:

"You can't get pregnant twice."

And I'm glad, 'cause it's a good line

that I gave to you.

Yes, thank you.

That Netflix woulda paid a lotta money for,

but there ya go. I love the show.

I love what she wore on the runway.

It's very Celia Cruz for me.

Azúcar!

Prosthetic penises are all the rage.

- I'm gonna get one. - I'm gonna order one from QVC.

- I'll give you mine. - That'd be the wrong color,

- Michelle. - Well... really?

[RuPaul laughing]

- With that spray tan? - Thank you! You know me.

Don't let the smooth titties fool ya.

Their act is so cool,

but they were just saying they wanna fuck you.

I didn't say that I wanted to fuck you.

I just wanted to give you head.

No, I'm blushing under my mask now.

[laughter]

Oh, Mistress, you so crazy!

- That was so inappropriate. - Oh, my goodness.

We'll be right back. [giggling]

[upbeat pop music]

Welcome back to "RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited."

Every time a drag queen bats her false eyelashes,

she's making a political statement.

And it's never been more true than right now.

Now, Aura, you performed with Maren Morris.

- Yep. - Tell us about it.

Yeah, I had an amazing opportunity

at a benefit concert in Nashville

called Love Rising,

which helped fund organizations

that help fight for our rights as LGBTQ people.

And I'm very thankful for what she has done

for our community.

She's using her platform

to voice out her opinion,

and I really appreciate that about her.

And you live in Nashville. What's the climate there like?

It's-it's scary.

I feel like I don't feel safe just driving to work in drag.

I'm worried about my safety at my own bar.

It's really disheartening and sad to see

the progress that we have made as a community

just being pulled back so easily.

Robin, I understand you hosted an event

at Yale University.

I was the first drag queen to speak at Yale Law.

It was a... a very important protest for them,

because a lot of the lawmakers

that are having laws put against us

in the queer community have studied and graduated

from Yale Law.

So I stopped by. I did a Drag Queen Story Hour

where I'm reading a children's book to grown-ass adults.

But it was fully in protest

to all of these heinous, hateful laws coming into place.

I love that. I love it.

Now, all you girls are touring the country right now.

What is the climate out there?

I actually was booked in Nashville,

and I can honestly say

I was like super nervous and scared.

'Cause we know when certain things like bills get passed,

like, it causes a uproar.

People have very, like, strong opinions and strong views,

and I didn't know if they would come to the club,

when what we do is out of love.

But I think it's also important to mention

that a lot of these bills are secretly...

Or not so secretly... Meant to target

trans men and women who aren't drag performers

who just wanna live their lives.

We are not the only ones that these bills are targeting.

- Absolutely. - Well, as a trans...

drag queen, I feel like the legislation right now

is particularly zoned in on people like me.

And I feel nervous traveling.

Like, what if, when I go into the airport bathroom,

and someone recognizes me that is not a fan

and wants to call the police because

I'm in their bathroom?

It's really the other side showing their cards

and knowing that we have displayed so much power

and unity in the past few years

that they need to just throw anything at the wall

- and see what sticks. - Right.

Because we are now more out and proud,

those small minorities are very loud,

so it's just so important for all of us,

no matter where we are, to speak up

and protest in whatever little way is possible.

And it means we're doing something right

if they're getting nervous.

- That's true. - Exactly.

We are shining so bright that they are so nervous

that they wanna take away everything.

- Yes. - And it doesn't matter

if you're gay, drag, trans... All of it's the same to them.

You are absolutely right. People who have

been used to having an advantage in our culture...

These people are in full fear,

and so they're lashing out at us

because we are having a good ol' time

living our life, and they can't stand it.

But let me tell you... Nothing is more powerful

than a registered vote.

Please remember that.

Now, this season, we had four queens from Connecticut,

and the state government has something to say about it.

- Oh, wait, really? - Take a look.

Hi. I'm Lieutenant Governor Susan Bysiewicz

from Connecticut,

and I am joined today

by our small but mighty LGBTQ+ caucus

with one thing that we'd like to say.

Thank you!

Amethyst, Robin, Loosey, and Jaxx,

you've made us all proud here in Connecticut.

You've shown the nation what Connecticut has to offer.

And we are working every day

to protect your right to be you.

Because now, more than ever,

the world needs bright lights like each of you.

So thank you for representing our state,

for showcasing your charisma, uniqueness,

nerve, and talent, and for reminding everyone

the freedom of expression is a human right.

And now it's time to remind all lawmakers

across the country:

Love wins!

[murmuring, laughter]

They got every queer person in Connecticut for that.

[chatter, laughter]

I love that. That's great.

Queens, how does that make you feel?

It's amazing. This season was literally

Connecticut versus the world.

But it's amazing to be able

to put Connecticut on the map and show that we have talent.

Um...[tearfully] I'm really touched by that, actually.

I feel like growing up I didn't really feel welcome

in such a small state, and, uh...

[exhales] I'm sorry.

[sniffling]

I think that just shows that we're really

making a difference in the world,

and I think we forget that sometimes.

And, um... [sniffling]

my favorite thing to do

is to go to Pride celebrations in Connecticut

because I see so many

so many kids and teenagers who...

look up to us, and when they see us,

it makes them feel like

their life isn't gonna be miserable.

- Yeah. - And...

the fact that anything that I've done

can make my state

feel like a more welcoming place

really means the world to me.

Keep shining, ladies.

Keep shining because the kids need it,

and because that is our power.

Keep glowing and keep being who you are.

Now it's time for a segment we're calling

Gather Her.

Ladykins, if there's anything

you wanna get off your chesticles,

this is the time.

Well, I have something

that I'd like to get off my chest.

Wait... Irene? You?

I know, it's very shocking. Um...

I have heard two separate things

from two different people in this cast.

Mistress, the first thing that you did

when you got on the phone with me after you got home

was tell me that after I left

Loosey LaDuca made a comment about me, saying...

'cause I was very open about the fact

that I have had filler on the show...

And you said that Loosey said,

"Irene doesn't even look like she's had filler.

In fact, it looks like her face is sagging."

And...

I confronted Loosey about that.

- What the fuck? - And she told me

that she would never say something like that.

So did you make that up, or did Loosey really say that?

I did not make anything up, but...

- So Loosey said that? - Absolutely not.

I don't even remember this conversation.

I remember it vividly. I didn't talk to you

- for three months after that. - Well...

I mean, I'm a lot of things, but a liar's not one,

and that's all I'll say.

I would never say that.

Well, Loosey, I don't know if I said that.

I don't know what's true,

but if you only had one day on "Drag Race,"

you hold on to what you have, so...

let's move forward.

I just have a question.

Who the fuck has my baby?

Oh, my God. It's in my closet.

- Oh! - Ah!

- I knew it! - Anetra, why do you

- have her baby? - Well, she's the father.

Oh! Okay.

No, I had the baby because I was gonna do

Kristen Wiig for the Snatch Game,

and she does a character where she has baby arms.

And I do not have baby arms.

However, Amethyst did have a baby.

What's fascinating about this group, I will say,

is that I feel like it's corny...

Every season they're like, "We're one big family."

And I feel like we are in the sense

where I'm sure we have all watched the show back,

there's been moments where were like, "Oh, that little bitch.

I'm gonna get her! She said th..."

But it's like when we're here it's like

we're all hot, we're all sickening, we're all talented.

It's like brush it off the back.

You know, it's so funny, every generation of this show,

there's more social media.

And it seems as though the girls come here

and they are very aware of, uh,

what people might say about them on social media.

Do you feel sort of muzzled

by the impression you may give to people on social media?

No, I don't, because

there's going to be somebody out there

who does not like what you're doing,

so you can't please everybody,

so just do what you gotta do to make yourself happy.

Have you gotten a lot of clap back on social media?

Me? Never!

Oh, no, yes, I definitely have had my fair share

of hate comments.

- How do you deal with it? - I block them.

I don't internalize them,

because they're all coming from people

whose opinions don't make any difference in my life.

- Yeah. - I feel like as the show

continues, as well, there's certain moments

with certain people who maybe will

make the fanbase or certain demographics of it

really get ignited.

For instance, like when Marcia and I had our moment

on "Untucked" where we were deciding who was second place

during Snatch Game,

my Instagram account got banned three times

because all the [indistinct] ganged up on me.

In those moments, we don't feel like

we're necessarily like truly going at it.

It's just like a bump in the road.

But these people feel so attached to us,

or they have underlying racism

or they're fat-phobic or things like that.

And I really feel like myself, and Luxx especially,

we constantly are like just getting attacked

for just being ourselves, and I don't regret any of it.

I'm a real drag queen. This is what I do.

This is how I handle my relationships with people.

At the end of the day, I think there's some people in the cast

where, you know, they spoke out

and they've really said, hey, this is not cool.

And there's some people who just let us take,

you know, the shit, but it's no tea.

Yeah, listen, I've been doing this for over 40 years,

and people say stuff all the time.

I am unbothered

by what someone might say.

So, you know, I implore you

to not take any of that stuff seriously,

'cause the best revenge is living well

and prospering, you know what I'm saying?

I also have something to address.

What's that, Luxx?

Pretty kiss, Miss America!

[laughter]

I didn't get it.

[singing] 'Cause you're a star, baby

Welcome back to "RuPaul's Drag Race: Reunited."

Now, all season long, our top four gave us

a master class in drag excellence.

Now, I wanna highlight some of their very best moments.

First up, Anetra blew us away

with her electrifying talent show performance.

Take a look.

[lip syncing] Quack quack

Quack quack quack quack

You better walk that fucking duck

[laughter]

Walk that fucking duck

It's... do you smell that?

It's like something's burning.

Is that... my pussy?

Yes.

[laughter]

It is!

Oh, my God, it's on fire.

Does anybody have, like...

[laughter, cheering]

Like a fire extinguisher?

[laughter]

And stage reset.

I think there's a fire extinguisher

in the back stage area.

Better walk that fucking duck.

Quack. [laughter]

You have kicked the zeitgeist

in the pussy forever and ever and ever.

And you're going to become

a multimillionaire with that phrase.

Get your knees ready.

They're gonna want it for the rest of your life.

I love it. I love it.

Thank you.

Oh ho, my goodness!

My gosh! Okay, so, Anetra,

what advice do you have

for anyone who wants to learn how to walk that fucking duck?

- Keep that ass down... - Uh-huh.

Quack, uh, really cuntily.

Knees high.

- And pussy on fire. - Okay!

So when did you first start mixing

your love of martial arts with vogueing?

Oh, that was the first time, really.

- What? - That's really the first time.

- Are you sure? - Yeah.

Oh, my gosh!

So some say it's vogueing.

Some say it's "nogueing."

Oh, lord.

What do you have to say about that?

I would say it's vogueish.

[laughing] Okay.

And how are your "Walk That Fucking Duck" merch sales?

I have made a pretty penny... Not millions yet.

But a pretty penny. We're on our way.

We're working up to it.

I also know for a fact that all her fans

for the meet and greet bring her little rubber duckies.

Yes, oh my gosh, they throw them at me on stage.

All right. Next up, Luxx Noir London

wowed the world

with her House of Visage couture.

Take a look.

Luxx Noir London,

representing Africa!

Can we get some water? 'Cause that zebra is panting.

Tonight, the fashion girl

is in the building.

The flow of this top that is made out of bed sheets

and curtain rod hooks is just giving, like, the drama.

The garment is stunning.

Take that, Garden State Parkway!

You could nevah!

She sewed those trousers, which were a rug,

and the way she put it together with the lines matching up

made out of that is virtually impossible,

and she did it here.

This was top tier.

Just the details did not look like amateur details.

This was a master class

in do it yourself instant glamour.

It was perfection. It was perfection.

Love, love, love, love.

Oh, my gosh, gorgeous! Now, Luxx,

what are the three things everyone should know

about slaying the runway?

Have fun, pace yourself,

and try something new.

Now, when did you know this look was coming together?

When I cut the pattern for the pants

and I knew that everything lined up,

I was like, oh, well, she has it in the bag, honey.

[laughter]

How did it feel on the runway?

It was one of my proudest moments

I think of my entire life.

To be able to do that in front of the world,

in front of my idol... It really just meant so much.

It was so good. It was so good.

All right, next up, Mistress

gave a blowout performance

in the Daytona Wind.

Take a look.

Mothah... has arrived!

Big Daddy was my lovah,

and I loved him.

And he loved me,

and I loved him right back again.

Reverend, handle light weight, darling.

Oh, what... what... yes...

Reverend, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Spare the rod, spoil the child, Mama always said.

Hit dogs do hollah, honey.

Ooh! You got some communion wafers?

Cut! Ha ha ha!

You're a motherfucking star, bitch.

Thank you.

I'm fucking loving what you're doing.

Our Fancy, she was really fun to watch.

- Let me in! - It started off with a bang,

and it kept getting better.

She commanded the room.

It's like, I'm going to let you bitches have it.

Oh, my gosh.

Mistress! Have you ever done any acting before?

I act a fool all the time.

No, I've never done any, like, professional acting.

Oh, you made me laugh so hard.

See, I feel like I was giving a very serious performance,

looking back at it.

No, I don't know, like,

I think that's one of my favorite things,

especially in my drag, just bringing joy to people.

And, like, I wanna make everyone laugh,

I want everyone to have a good time

because that's what drag's all about.

Now, um, I wanna know from the other queens

what it was like acting with Mistress.

I just know that me and Sasha were in the back

cracking... like, we had to like turn around.

Okay, cut, that was...

She'd say something, we'd like bust out laughing.

It was one of the highlights of my "Drag Race" experience.

She completely crushed it.

What you did

in that challenge, Mistress,

you could go right into a sitcom today.

You know what it would be called?

"Mistress."

You'd be the motherfucking star of that show.

And finally, Sasha Colby

posed the house down

in the "Blame it on the Edit" music video.

Let's take a look.

[lip-synching] Bad bitch body

I don't come and play

Best believe when I stepped on the scene

Shitty hoes just run away

Dream-chaser, style-maker

Game-changer, bank-maker

Crack the code, now y'all know

Sasha Colby run the show, ah

I love doing music videos,

so thank God it's literally what I've been

trained to do, and I love it.

This is pop star boot camp, baby.

It's a lot to make it look like it's not a lot,

you know, to make it look effortless.

I'm really glad I got to have my video vixen dream

come true.

Yay!

You said, you know what,

I'm gonna show you

what it's like [laughs] to be

a motherfucking video star.

[laughter]

The steps? Sure, I got 'em.

I'm not only gonna do the steps,

I'm gonna add a little extra uh-uh.

Flicking the hair in sync with the arm thing...

It's like, okay, I got it.

I'm amazed by you.

I'm the motherfucking queen of drag.

I'm amazed by you.

Wow, so amazing.

This video is outrageous.

Now, Sasha, what can you tell our viewers

about connecting with the camera?

Because, bitch, you connected.

Uh, I... I don't know. I love the camera, I do.

I just see, like, who I wanna seduce

and cast a spell on, and just lock eyes.

I learned that, actually, from Monica Munro.

She just had this commitment

where she locked eyes on a person

and she made you almost like feel uncomfortable.

And I enjoy that.

No, I've seen Monica Monroe perform,

and you're absolutely right. One of the greats.

Now, have you been in music videos before?

I haven't before, but I've had the privilege

of choreographing for many "Drag Race" alumni

and their music videos.

I see. You know, listen, you have a dance background.

You know how to make complicated movements

look effortless, and that's what you did in it.

Are you surprised by what you saw?

Uh...

No.

I am very happy with how it turned out.

Gorgeous. It's absolutely gorgeous.

It really is a master class. Absolutely.

Now, next week at the grand finale,

the competition continues

as our queens perform show-stopping solo numbers.

And in the end, two queens

will go head to head and toe to toe

in a lip sync for the crown.

The winner will receive a one-year supply

of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics

and a cash prize of $200,000,

served by Cash App.

Fans, who do you think should be

America's next drag superstar?

Are you Team Anetra,

Team Luxx Noir London,

Team Mistress Isabelle Brooks,

or Team Sasha Colby?

Let your voice be heard using #dragrace

and tune in next week

for the grand finale of "RuPaul's Drag Race."

And remember, if you can't love yourself,

how the hell you gonna love somebody else?

Can I get a amen up in here?

Amen!

All right, y'all, let the music play.

[singing] A little bit of love

Goes a long, long way

Lifting you up to a brighter day

Can you feel the love?

A little bit of love

Goes a long, long way

Lifting you up to a brighter day

A little bit of love

Goes a long, long way

Turn it around when you up and say

Everybody say love, love

Love oh oh oh oh

Oh oh, love, oh oh

Love, can you feel the love?
