December 6, 20231 yr I’m digging Mirage and Nymphia by looking at the bios (and I think Dawn and a few others might grow on me), now I just gotta see the interviews
December 7, 20231 yr Ones that intrigue me initially (and on their workroom entrance) are Q, Dawn and Kershii
December 7, 20231 yr Nymphia Wind is the most striking for me out of these, although my favourite outfit is Saphira's. I'm totally unspoiled for this season so I don't know what at all might be coming up! I still hope they might do a comeback challenge in the regular seasons as we haven't had one since I think S7!
December 8, 20231 yr So it seems like the Plane Jane accusations were a misunderstanding and even exaggeration, so Plane put a dollar in the accuser’s waistband and there is a video of it that Plane’s best friend put up, the person who accused Plane clearly played into it, laughed,enjoyed it, and she also apologised to the person. It’s very disingenuous of the accuser to not share that Plane apologised and realised that she needed to change her behaviour and think about what she does in her performances. Jay Kay from Dragula who initially backed up the accuser has now also backpedalled now there is evidence to the contrary, I think it’s a bit icky and definitely brings up a conversation about consent in nightclubs that needs to be had but I don’t really think it’s like Sherry Pie cancel the queen level at alllll as I feared. It honestly kinda seems like the person took a chance to jump on someone who was about to become popular and exaggerated events, which could be really damaging. Jane hasn’t been my fave from the MTQ but I feel so bad for her having this piled onto her so she can’t enjoy her big day of getting onto Drag Race and sharing it with the world.
December 8, 20231 yr really lost any respect to jay kay through this. i didn't really enjoy her on dragula but its TV so it's not to be taken so seriously. this, however, is real life. to go out and try and ruin someone's livelihood over something a bit ick, but ultimately not that serious, is really shitty. especially when it seems plane went out of her way immediately to try and rectify the situation at the time.
December 8, 20231 yr See I liked Jay on Dragula and honestly was feeling like they were getting a hard time but if anything this saga has just made me think that the cast was onto something :/
December 9, 20231 yr Author See I liked Jay on Dragula and honestly was feeling like they were getting a hard time but if anything this saga has just made me think that the cast was onto something :/ The Boulet Brothers said on their podcast that Jay Kay was constantly making sexual comments towards Orkgotik, which was actually the reason why Orkgotik poured the drink on Jay in the cauldron on episode 3. I've also seen on Twitter/X that Jay is friends with an accused rapist.
December 28, 20231 yr Obsessed with Plasma, Megami and Nymphia from the meet the queens already Edited December 28, 20231 yr by p a v
