3. The legend of Shangela’s lipstick
He was actually one of the most popular participants, Shangela, who when she was first voted off in the second season, took her lipstick and wrote a farewell note on a study mirror for the remaining queens. The tradition still exists today.

4. Ru-nway correction
Since the show’s inception, Rowe has always said before the runway show “Gentlemen, start your engines, and maybe best woman wins,” but that changed starting in season 13 when gutmic, The first trans person was there to compete. “Racers, start your engines, and may the best drag queen winHe became the new. And already in the next season, there were two trans contestants and three more contestants who would come out as trans. This makes season 14 the richest of all. A trans woman also won one of the seasons: Kylie Sonic Love had won Drag Race All Stars Season 6. This is after she returns to drag raceseries after the first competition in the second season of the original series. She then came out publicly as trans during the episode “Reunion”.
The meaning in Sweden is: “Compete, get ready and may the best eucalyptus win!“

In an interview with Billboard in 2018, the show’s lighting director said: Jenny Blum this name drag race Many of those who will work with the program have been misled. The men who were brought in to handle various parts of the artwork thought it was an engine program that they agreed to work with.

each episodeIf you can’t love yourself, how the hell are you going to love someone else? It comes from RuPaul’s mom, and Ru honors her by having the contestants say “amen” after RuPaul says this.

However, it is highly doubtful that this would be allowed after O’Hara’s disastrous incident during the Season 10 finale when she hid butterflies in her chest and not getting warm enough but tired plopped down on stage. Janet Jackson disgusting, instead of flying beautifully. It was just right disgusting to see…

8. Guest judges
