Maddy Morphosis’ mammoth wig has left fans well and truly gagged. In the fifth episode of The Pit Stop, host Trixie Mattel was joined by Drag Race season 14 contestant Maddy Morphosis to discuss the latest episode of the 16th series. However, viewers’ attention seemed to have strayed away from the conversation and was rather fixated on the bouffant of Maddy. Her Pit Stop debut, Maddy first skyrocketed to fame on the 14th season of Drag Race. She made history as the franchise’s first-ever cis-het contestant and, although her casting…

The girls of season 16 bring runway talent and quality drama

admin, , , ,

Let’s talk about some good television. RuPaul’s Drag Race season 16 gave us what might be one of its best episodes yet this week: A healthy helping of drama; a decent dollop of quality competition; two scoops of character development and a sprinkling of surprise.

Friday introduced a bit of friction between her and Q. Q complains that…

In the latest episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race season 16, after doing a book cover Mini Challenge and a girl group Maxi Challenge, the queens are expected to take to the runway in their favorite pussycat wig looks.

“It’s relief, it’s satisfaction”: Drag Race star Crystal on winning libel case against Laurence Fox

admin, , , ,

Drag Race UK star Crystal says she is feeling “a mix of emotions” after winning her libel case against Laurence Fox. Yesterday (29 January), a High Court judge ruled that the right-wing commentator and actor had libelled both Crystal, who is known as Colin Seymour out of drag, and former Stonewall trustee Simon Blake when he falsely branded them “peadophiles” on social media in October 2020.  He had used the term against the pair after they and actress Nicola Thorp accused him of being racist over his response to Sainsbury’s…
