5 hours and 15 minutes until we have the queens!

whens it starting?

Damn. Sounds like we're only getting 1 queen today on facebook live.

First queen is named 'Valentina'.

I hope this is a Kim Chi type of thing, and that we get the rest of them in bulk. I don't want to wait every day :p

CHARLIE HIDES!!!

Ooh, I like that trailer :love:

Y'all have no idea how happy I am for her

Eureka serving first elimination realness

13 queens?
Assuming a past queen will join them though as they've not had an odd number of queens in a long time

The bits I've seen on YT of Charlie have left me underwhelmed but idk. Had no idea she was 52 D:

Most-promising looking ones are Aja, Sasha Velour, Peppermint and Shea. I hope Farrah isn't another Derrick.

of the 13 I would put my money on Alexis to go first. edit: nope. Make that Jaymes.

I've been reading far too many cast spoilers (and, inadvertently, other spoilers) for my own good, so it's nice to be able to put faces to names

Anyway, they look... good? Although of course looking good and actually being any good are two very different things when it comes to Drag Race. This isn't a results spoiler or anything major but I'll stick it in spoiler tags anyway:

Then again if there's a Reveal challenge then maybe Alexis is safe.



that is insane.

And re: a 14th queen, I've read about THAT spoiler but I was wondering if maybe Vander Von Odd could be a pick considering the outcome of that Dragula thing that Logo have been pushing too. Sort of like a promotion gig.

Arbitrary ranking o'clock!

Nina (could be a Dax but I rather like her) > Alexis (Raven meets Thorgy? Kinda? No?) > Derrick Ba-I mean Farrah Moan (jk she's already better) > Peppermint > Valentina > Jaymes Mansfield > Sasha (I almost forgot about her. But she seems nice, if a little Milk-esque on a good day and Miss Fame-esque on a bad) > Trinity (she's... there. Vaguely Jinkx-ish?) > Aja (eh, bit too Pearl-like for me. I've still got PTSD) > Eureka (could be fun, could be... not) > Shea ("...I speak French!" was funny but that's about it. I feel like I'm being way too harsh though, so I'll give her a chance) > Charlie (I feel like I would have heard of her if I were a true drag fan, and that I probably should have too. But yeah, you can tell that she's primarily a Madonna impersonator) > Kimora (oh wait here's Pearl*) > Jaymes Mansfield's voice

*actually I don't think anyone's all that Pearl-like and am indeed just comparing people for the sake of comparison and as I said, this ranking's completely arbitrary/subject to change five minutes into the premiere. So stay tuned for Nina to be the first boot and Kimora to become my all time fave etc

OMG Charlie Hides? :love:

Hi Drag Race 9 Winner :clap1:

So from a brief listen, Ru's new album is much more classic Ru (none of that Geronimo bollocks), which I suppose is nice if that's the Ru you prefer/have any interest in Ru's music whatsoever. Ru!

edit: oh of course it's classic Ru they're all bloody remixes

After watching their videos I'd rank them

Nina
Aja
Vivienne
Alexis
Peppermint
Shea
Sasha
Eurika
Jaynes
Charlie
Valentina
Farrah
Kimora

I feel like this season is gonna be a lot like season 7

A lot of them seem to have little personality and are there for looks

On first impressions not impressed with the cast (especially after season 8's amazingly well rounded cast)

Is there a link for their videos? I've just been looking at club performances on YT

I find it amazing to know that Peppermint is the first transgender queen to have transitioned before the start of the competition. Also, there is this one YouTube channel that correctly predicted everyone except for Valentina (because we were all thinking that there would be 12 queens, not 13).

ta MB

from those...

Like: Aja, Alexis, Eureka, Nina (c'mon Mrs. Jasmine Davis!), Peppermint, Sasha (c'mon Ongina II!), Valentina
Meh: Charlie, Farrah, Shea, Trinity (c'mon Venus D'Lite!)
...Umm*...: Jaymes (she could be a brilliant mess though) (ok the Vivacious line <3), Kimora (the fact she felt she'd need to explain who Marco Marco is given the show's history with him :joker:)

Best promo look is Alexis tbh.

*not gonna say dislike before it's already begun but...
