Have you ever sat down watching America’s Next Top Model and thought to yourself, “hmmm, I appreciate this but wouldn’t it be a lot better if these girls were replaced with drag queens”. Clearly RuPaul thought this himself, and brought us RuPaul’s Drag Race, which airs at 1.05am on E4 every Wednesday night. Next time you’re up at that time wondering what trash there is to watch, then stick my new favourite reality show on. It’d be nice to have someone to talk to it about.
Undoubtedly the campest thing on TV, so far guest judges have included Jackie Collins, Kathy Griffin and Debbie Reynolds. If you think you’ve seen it all, then I can promise you haven’t until you’ve seen RuPaul giving his “girls” tips on how to bring out their inner drag queen. At this stage in the competition only four “ladies” remain:
1. The Beautiful Jujubee
2. The Annoying Tatiana
3. The Obnoxious Tyra Sanchez
4. The Frankly Rather Terrifying Raven.
Don’t tell me you don’t wanna see these four bitches fighting it out to be crowned the ultimate drag superstar. I heartily recommend that if you have a hankering for some distasteful trash telly, then stick E4 on next Wednesday night to check out these girls and what RuPaul himself calls their “charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent”. Charisma. Uniqueness. Nerve. Talent. Geddit?
