RuPaul's Drag Race, Season 8

Okay, so I'm going to hit rock bottom and start talking about the ~reality shows~ I watch because, honestly, like, they have so much diversity. ........... 

If I could punch my own self right now, I would? I mean, I guess I could? But I would like...instinctually stop myself from hurting myself as much as I want?? You know? Like I really want to leave a dent. Someone come here and leave a dent in me. OR I COULD NOT BE WRITING ANY OF THIS?? 

But seriously? I am so thirsty for diversity. #thirsty4diversityendmylife. And, like, reality shows are one of the main places I see so many non-whites all at once?? And not just race, but like, various "eccentric" type personalities where you're wondering how these people even made it this far in life. In a word, reality shows are relatable to me. The loons on these shows are the closest I will ever see myself represented on television and I am so sad and empty :') 

Anyway, I've been watching Drag Race for a minute and a half. What was my first season? I think the one with Willam and Phi Phi? Who won that year and lol what season was that? Season 4 and Tyra, I think?? Or was that Sharon Needles' season? (ugh) Anyway!, I was immediately hooked. It was very bitchy and campy and that's like, all I look for in anything ever? So good stuff. Though I did have an issue with how heavily edited the show was. Like the reaction shots are mad fake? lol and especially in that season with Phi Phi's bitchy ass and they would like cut to *Willam dead face*. It was very pointed lol

But despite the very extremely fake way the show is filmed and set-up, I can look past that because there's good entertainment. The personalities for sure make up for it. Who is distracting me from bad editing this season? Personality wise? Definitely Chi Chi...I LOVE CHI CHI SO MUCH! She's so cute with her liddle toof. And I have such a thing for people from Louisiana. They're so cute and country pleeeeez. He's def my fave and also...Kim Chi. I think those are the only two I like really care about. I only ever deeply care about one or two queens each season. Lol except for last season like. But I'm super-rooting for Kim Chi and Chi Chi. I think...Chi Chi might turn out how Alyssa was for me? I was uhbsessed with Alyssa, but I didn't think she was strong enough for the competition and I'd be scared like every week her ass would go home. Didn't she lip-sync 4 her life like three times? Idk...but that seems like Alyssa lol so. She went pretty far, though, but not as far as I wanted :( ChiChi has gone pretty far. But I'm scared. Like, I want her in at least top four but, like, is that delusional? She's like all personality because her drag is...idk. It's on a budget which is fine, but is that good enough for the comp? Iono. Wait lemme guess who could go home before her. Derrick!! GET DERRICK'S UGLY ASS OUTTA HERE! lol omg he is so annoying. I was into the Britney shit for like one second but bitch do not gimme more, and get that bare ass forehead thee fuck out of here, gurl. 

You know what's so encouraging and inspiring? Acid Betty's ass got sent home. I thought Acid would end up in top 3 because his drag seemed so...idk, good? Like, just well done and very artsy blah blah. But I'm glad the judges got tired of it and he entirely butchered Nancy Grace on Snatch Game. When Carson Kressley slaughtered that impression I was so embarrassed for Acid, like, what are you doing?? And then he had the nerve to be lamenting how people back home call him a "look queen". Uh, girl, cuz you are??? I can't stand a delusional bitch. Unrelated probably: also can't stand myself :')

So Acid went home which is so pleasuring to me. Now I need for Robbie's whack ass to go home next. Robbie makes me so mad because his drag mommies were Jinkx and DeLa, right? He's just so...a T.J. Maxx knock-off of them. I was over it from episode one when he had the same wig as Jinkx and she slayed a million more times than him? I cannot believe Robbie has made it this far, like what is seriously occurring? AND NAOMI. Naomi is so cute and cunt, but that's it. She doesn't have the personality, imo. Like, it's just not there. And her New York was...like, what? New York is such a personality, and there's so much you can do/quote????? Ugh what a mess. That performance looked like fucking Luther Van-drossnot Beyoncé. 

Okay so who needs to go home before Chi Chi or I will personally kill to death RuPaul and RuCharles (and also Michelle Visage just for fun): Derrick's hatin' ass, Robbie, and Naomi. If a single one of these queens stays over Chi Chi there will be blood. Loljk i am too lazy for murder but I will definitely be squinting my eyes really hard at the screen, Ru! 

Okay so with Derrick, Robbie and Naomi gone, who's left? Thorgy, Bob, Kim Chi!!, and ChiChi. Why do I feel like I'm forgetting someone? If I am they obviously need to go home because I can't remember them? :) Top three definitely probably maybe: Bob, Thorgy, and Kim Chi? Idk. Idk!! I'm lowkey worried about Kim Chi? Her drag is sooooooo cunt I lovvvee that anime hello kitty shit. But does she have all the extra umph bullshit you need? She def has personality, imo, but idk. I can see her messing up. But she's so different to me? Maybe? From what we've already seen on Drag Race, so I will definitely love to see her in top 3. Over Chi Chi unfortunately? But maybe Chi Chi will glow up into that spot, instead? I will be okay with either way. 

But can you tell I am like sooo sure the other two slots are Bob and Thorgy? They just are the strongest to me. Just really talented, which matters above all. I can completely see Bob winning and I think he's different for Drag Race. He's def ott, which is...like...annoying? Lol, but his charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent make up for it. Thorgy has it all as well, but...she's always one step behind Bob and...she has dreads...........

....................

They look clean, though? So that's good. *cringes into a seizure*

But yeah they are top 2 for me. But things can change over the next handful of episodes. A schtick can get tiring, or someone can really step it up, who knows. But 100% I need for Derrick and Robbie to go. I am willing to give Naomi more of a chance just because I love her runaway even though it's mad basic. But I always love the tit-less queens. Especially the model-looking ones sigh. But to win? No. Like I was lowkey feelin' some type of way when Violet Chachki won last season? I just thought she was all look and Raja had already come thru, but okay?? Like Ginger Minj should have won BUT OKAY. I'm just glad Pearl didn't, yikes @ how messy last season was. This season is better but like...why does so much whackness get let through every year? I wonder if they pick not so up to snuff queens on purpose so the first episodes are easy in terms of eliminations? But then you get...cringe-worthy lip-syncs and...I can't deal with the secondhand embarrassment of a bad lip-sync. Lip-syncing itself is already bad enough, but then to do it poorly? Pleeeeeeeeez...

In conclusion, Acid Betty was a bitch and good riddance, ho!!! Bring back Shangela!!!

I AM JUST FUCKING KIDDING NEVER DO THAT STOP DOING THAT!!!
