Drag Race UK vs the World teases the end of Best Friend’s Race

admin, , , ,

This season of UK vs the World is currently on track to dethrone season 12 as the ultimate edition of RuPaul’s Best Friend’s Race, with episode two eliciting a lot of laughs and squidgy “aww!” moments between the cast. But, with the final moments teasing some season one-esque shenanigans ala Jimbo and Pangina Heals’ eliminations, how long will it stay, y’know, squidgy? (In the profound words of Katya Zamolodchikova, “I don’t know, I’m not a scientist.”) Following the events of the premiere, which saw Marina Summers defeat La Grande Dame…

Drag Race UK vs the World: Was the season 2 premiere a success?

admin, , , ,

‘Well-received’, ‘critically-acclaimed’ and ‘best ever!’ are not phrases we would associate with the first season of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs the World. With a rushed six episodes, a rather whelming second half and the wildly controversial back-to-back exits of frontrunners Jimbo and Pangina Heals, it’s not often ranked in the upper echelons of Drag Race seasons. (Jimbo’s unhinged introduction of Casper the Baloney Ghost, Jujubee’s so-bad-it’s-bloody-brilliant impersonation of Cher and the runways deserve praise, however.) As a result, fans have been less… enthused, we’ll say, about the follow-up. How…

Hannah Conda was intimidated by one queen in particular on Drag Race UK vs the World.

On 13 January, BBC Three ru-vealed the new lineup of queens ready to compete for the highest accolade of ‘Queen of the Mothertucking World’.

The US queen changed her social…
