Does Michelle only have fans because...

[Daniel.]

Of being on Ru Paul's Drag Race?

I was expecting to stan because I watched loads of clips she she slayed me, but in the house she has been a massive let down. She would be seen as fodder and a follower if she didn't already have a fanbase. I just think f she wasn't known for being on Ru Paul's Drag Race she wouldn't be nearly as popular. :think:

Pretty much. I got excited as well thinking she would be some goddess quote queen after seeing a bit of drag race. But she has been useless.

I never knew her before this but I liked how she came across in her VT and I was hoping she'd live up to that..................she didn't

[Liam-]

No, i don't watch drag race but i still knew who she was and I'm still a fan :laugh:

Same. What a letdown she has been :(

Totally agree.
She really has thrown a potential win away.
For somebody who claims to know the British Public so well, she has been quite naïve.

No it is because she is a thoroughly nice Lady

Surely that show must have barely any viewers here

Maybe, but she's rather dull and irritating with her talking about the LGBT "community" all the time. Plus she's bitchy and hypocritical.

I was thinking more on here :laugh:

I actually started watching this season of CBB because of her. (I'm American) I'm a huge fan of Ru Paul's Drag Race (I've watched every season.) So when I heard she was on I started watching it with the idea I was going to root for her. Well.. along the way I sort of lost respect for her. I think the first straw was when she made that crazy diary room rant about how Perez set the gay community back. Plus she used "our community" and that sort of pissed me off. You can be an ally all you want but you're not one of us. It isn't her community, it's OUR community. The second straw was her sticking to Katie Hopkins and her actions with Alicia and Perez. For example while Perez's actions were OTT in regards to Alex, Michelle should have seen the homophobia in Alex's actions and words and spoken out about it since she is the voice of "the gays" after all. I think Michelle's problem is that since she is so involved with the drag circuit that she basically sees herself as an honorary one of us. Which that isn't the case. She can be as involved as she wants to be but that doesn't change the fact she's a straight cis woman. Idk just the way she talks about gay people seems othering and dehumanizing. It's never about Perez's crazy antics. It's Perez the gay man's crazy antics.
