It wasn't the tweet it's self but rather the replies Bob made to his fans
I know they can't always take pictures with everyone and don't have any obligation to put if you know faking a smile for 10 seconds at a meet and greet or when you're in a bar or whatever will make someone's day and potentially make them so happy, then why not just do it...

I also don't hate Shangela I just thought, like it seems most fans also do, that her responding to that tweet with that was very inappropriate

lewis111 07-03-2018 05:18 PM

So many of the queens have talked about not always having time or effort to stop and talk to all fans on the streets and stuff but Bob is openly saying that he is not a nice person and isn't going to pretend to be nice or happy or whatever to the fans that have paid to meet him and I'm just, why even tweet about that what was the point

Shaun 07-03-2018 05:36 PM

I don't think Meet and Greets are the issue here, though, this seems to be addressing being approached outside of work. And anyone who's a fan of Bob should really expect her to be a kinda deadpan, sarcastic person when she's not on stage - most of S8 was spent with Bob's confessionals being very dry, in contrast to her performance energy.

Anyway this is odd bc if anything I've been a little eyerolly over Bob lately with her defence of RuPaul :laugh: but I am 100% on her side here when it comes to fans expecting too much.

I mean, the nerve of this bitch:



To actually tweet that, and act entitled, as if Bob should've taken off his headphones and been all YES BITCH WERK to some random girl taking a selfie in front of him? Just insanity, this whole thing.

lewis111 07-03-2018 05:44 PM

I somewhat more get her stance from her most recent tweet
If she purely meant that she won't always Be all nice with people on the street that yea I get what's she saying, but I'm sure she mentioned meet and greets at one point

But it's the tweets like "you were more excited to meet me than I was to meet you" whilst obviously true, I just don't understand why that is somethin you feel the need to tweet to your fans who probabaly respect and look up to you, it just appears like she's pushing it too far just to prove her original plot

Headie 07-03-2018 05:51 PM

Shaun is completely right with all the points he's said in this thread, I really don't see how people can argue otherwise (and are still attempting to lmao)

Headie 07-03-2018 05:54 PM

It amazes me how people can drag Bob for "not caring about Drag Race fans" when his LGBT activism has done alot more for his fans than saying "hi" would ever do

lewis111 07-03-2018 06:02 PM

I'm not trying to argue with Shaun though, it's a discussion on a forum and I agree with a lot of the stuff he's saying I was just giving my view on Bob's tweets-

and I've even said that his most recent tweets cleared things up so I don't think he doesn't care about fans, I'm just questioning why he tweeted some of the things he did that seem to maybe belittle how much his fans mean to him, but it was probabaly just a heat of the moment thing and he's now said what he really meant

There appears to be another kind of "old queens returning" moment in the first episode (spoiler I guess???)

Spoiler:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DXtKN0SU0AA7IhZ.jpg:large

From this I can make out: Porkchop, Trixie, Jiggly, Chad, Jinkx, Kasha Davis, Mariah, Laganja, Darienne, Kim, Delta, Adore, Morgan, Bob, Tempest, Derrick, Raven, Jessica Wild, Pandora, Jujubee...

only ones I'm unsure of are
- front row with dreads. Is that Yara?
- back row with a fascinator. Is that Manila?
- next to Delta on the left, unsure if that's Jaymes or Pearl


Nothing major I don't think, unless they're involved in the challenge :laugh:

dunno if it's been posted, but here's rupaul's guardian interview that started that controversy
https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-r...inated-culture
and reaction today:

Shaun 08-03-2018 05:23 PM

Trailer is cute though! Looking forward to it.

Daniel-X 08-03-2018 06:12 PM

Ashanti? Best season ever.

Also, I’m guessing by the fact that Andy Cohen is appearing as a guest, that one of the challenges might be based on The Real Housewives franchise as he always hosts the reunions.

Shaun 08-03-2018 06:15 PM

There's definitely gonna be more reality-TV challenges with VH1 having the rights now :laugh: hopefully no more musicals about them that have the same tune, though...
