S1 Jade's Cousin was sadly gunned down though :(

Jade </3 :sad:

Such a horrendous night.

Sorry, was it even at night? What time were the shootings?

It was a night, yeah - think they were all being held hostage around 5am local time

He worked for AlandChuckTravel (Drag Race sponsors) apparently :(

Around 2am US time

It's scary how small the community is in the USA in retrospect. I hope this will make the LGBTQ community grew closer especially since Drag Race has arguably torn it slightly apart, as seen with Jasmine's horrific treatment last year and the internal political conflicts of Carmen Carrea.

Thanks guys.

I know a lot of people say that there is no such thing as a 'gay community', but even with Drag Race aside there is unity in the fact that there are events/parades and clubs that are symbolic in terms of pride. I know there is a lot of gay on gay hate but I don't doubt for a second that this will strengthen the bond within LGBT society, especially in the USA. There are already marches (I think some were happening anyway) today that were dedicated to these shootings.

lmfao I say that and the first thing I read on Twitter is a gay guy saying he hates street festivals and parades :p

This was uploaded of a show Ginger Minj did last night (Ginger's hometown is Orlando) and I've just burst into tears smh

Thank you for posting that, Shaun. So beautiful.

That changed all my opinions on Ginger :sad:

This seems to have hit a lot of the queens personally. Coco Montrese has apparently lost six friends in the club:

The club was frequented by basically everyone that passed through Orlando but I've seen specific links to Yara Sofia, Kenya Michaels, Sonique, Morgan McMichaels, Rebecca Glasscock, Alexis Mateo... and Jade of course :( her cousin Eddie seems to have been a close friend of drag favourite Coco Peru as well.

Orlando is the hometown of Tyra Sanchez, Ginger Minj and Roxxxy Andrews as well, so all 3 of theirs have made the final. Clearly a big drag city :(

A drag queen, Alanis Laurell, was killed as well - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZg4xCwah5Y

Oh and I think Dela's tweet was especially sweet:

Jade was on BBC earlier

Jade :love:

Chi Chi as Roxxxy at the bus stop :joker: Goodbye

I think we all need a bit of Rapal Dark Res after the week that's just been

(any news on the All Stars start date yet, btw?)

Apparently November but I highly doubt that :suspect:

:love: @ Dark Res.

AS2 line up confirmed! http://attitude.co.uk/rupauls-all-st...e-up-revealed/

Also confirms that it starts Aug 25 :amazed:

The cast is very hit and miss, but I'm glad it starts sooner than we initially thought.

Great lineup, but it's basically Season 5.2

:yuk: @ having to see Roxxy Andrews on TV again.

Detox slaying the **** outta me.

Let's face it - Roxxxy is only there so they could reunite 'Rolaskatox' so can she leave please :rolleyes:
