[@13strong]

As a Scottish person, my take on Ellie's question is: Scottish people are pretty proud of their Scottish identity and accents. We don't normally appreciate non-Scots attempting a Scottish accent (because you can't do it), but in this case, it feels like Ru is recognising and celebrating Lawrence's Scottish background but not Ellie's. And it feels like favouritism. Which it is, obviously. There may also be a West Coast / East Coast issue there (Lawrence is West, Ellie is East), and West Coast Scots are often seen by outsiders as the "real" or "stereotypical" Scots. If I was Ellie it would bug me too. That said, if she want's to get noticed, she needs to be better. She's not that engaging or funny; her outfits are EXCELLENT, tho. Lawrence is beating her and that must feel pretty bad.

[@toothlesstoothy]

Ooh so Tia was right!! Keep being amazing scottish people

[@CatherineCane]

This is what I thought was going on as soon as it happened, I was surprised that Americans think she was vying for Rupaul to give her a nickname or anything. It was definitely just because she's also Scottish. Ellie Diamond isn't as easy to say in an exaggerated Scottish accent as Lawrence Chaney is though

[@kidkytes6233]

Yup! This is exactly it! I'm Scottish to and it was absolutely just Ellie wanting to be recgonised by RuPaul on the same level that he is acknowledging Lawrence. We as Scots defo feel pushed aside whenever it comes to the "UK" being seen outside our country. We're not as patriotic as other countries but we defo have pride as being Scottish. It's one of the reasons why we all generally talk about our country as "Bonnie old Scotland!". Also I'm so glad that Lawrence and Ellie said that there literally is NO MONEY in Scotland because queens hardly ever get paid. For years they've been given nothing for performing and putting on shows. Mainly because of the hold Lady Munter put on the drag scene in Scotland when she started booking Ru girls. PAY YOUR ENTERTAINERS PEOPLE! SUPPORT LOCAL QUEENS!

[@BagOfSticksFork]

you're not wrong but also lawrence chaney has the sort of scottish accent americans tend to like while ellie's accent is less familiar and also... look, no one likes a dundee accent. Proper east coasters sound absolutely mental, and i say this as someone who grew up on the east coast. I also think ru can only understand like half of what ellie says.

I think Ellie diamond only wanted to get Ru to say her name in a Scottish accent because she is also Scottish . And it was weird to disregard her when approaching both Scots and only acknowledge Laurence as being Scottish . That’s my opinion 🙃

[@terryalthea1540]

Ru's first statement was literally her acknowleding that they're both scottish. She literally said both the scotts together again. That is more of an acknowledgement than her saying Lawrence's name in an accent. Ellie was jealous, because she thinks Rupaul likes Lawrence more and is giving ger more attention.

[@rachaeltsang2414]

I feel that Ginny's exit is misunderstood by some non-British people..... In an interview on Gay Times, they said they went on RPDRUK, "to fuck it up, break the binary and to be punk."

I fully spent the first three episodes going "is anyone gonna mention that Ru's doing an accent for one Scottish queen but not the other?" so I really think the reaction is bizarre. At the same time I'm not sure I ever want to hear Ru's attempt at a Dundee accent so maybe it's for the best...

It is a bit weird lol

[@saffronshearer4263]

Lawrence is from Glasgow and Ellie is from Dundee, which have totally different Scottish accents. We are a whole country. There are 3-4 different accents in Glasgow alone. But Ru's accent is neither Glasgow nor Dundee so it was a fair question from Ellie! 😊

[@dassijes5943]

I think the question was fair but the answer seems pretty obvious. It's fun to say 'Lawrence Chaney' in a fake Glaswegian accent. The name just lends itself to it, whereas 'Ellie Diamond' in a Dundonian accent doesn't.

[@gabriellaberman]

Yeah, I agree. But Glasgow accents are just the most fun to mimic

[@callummullan2397]

I think they were trying to get the crazed name obsession with saying LAwRrenCe ChAnEY to stop, cause Lawrence had already brought up in episode 2 about her name being said mentally

Even outside of lockdown, I tend to keep myself isolated, so that I'm not snapping at those I love when I can't deal with things.

Unpopular opinion: One thing I have to say about drag race Uk is that the American judges unfortunately are ignorant of what makes uk drag it’s own unique thing and from their commentary it’s clear that they don’t want the next uk drag super star but instead they want the next American version of a uk drag super star. If the judges maybe had a bit of history on these girls they may have been more respectful of their drag instead of just dragging it. I would be curious to know if Ru or Michelle have actually been to a variety of UK drag shows. Ginny and Joe Black are icons in the scene and it’s very telling that some of the judges don’t ‘get it’ . Ginny leaving the way she did was a moment of clarity because it shows that the contestants are there to showcase their best drag and unfortunately the show is pushing them to be amaericanised. Joe Black has really been talking about some of these issues on his Instagram. I think season one is proof of this, Baga should’ve won but The Viv was a more palatable choice for Ru and the American audience. It may have been disrespectful of her to walk out the way she did but after weeks of disrespect from the American judges I don’t hold it against her. Canada’s drag race panel might be a little inexperienced and harsh but at least they have an understanding of the country and culture they are judging where as I don’t believe Ru and Michele do, and if they do they aren’t presenting those criticisms to us only their somewhat biased American view. That’s my two cents.

[@Sirlgglesworth]

I was kinda here for Ginny's walk off. She clearly didn't want to be in the competition anymore, she didn't make it a moment, she just got the fuck out. What could she have done better? A sad lip sync and eliminated 2 minutes later? Sounds like worse television.

Exactly. She knew she her drag didn’t have a true chance at winning, she was done with that “be more sexy” bs and on top of that the fibromyalgia issue. She showed what she wanted to show for as long as she wanted to, got her exposure to new fans and had done already had herses.

[@emilysnelgrove]

And she's done numerous interviews since that episode aired saying she wasn't really there to compete and win, that shes not a competitor and I think thats very fair, especially after being told to change.

[@MirandaScully]

This is so interesting to me because I find that a lot of Americans considered Ginny disrespectful, whereas I thought it was an iconic tv moment! She was never in this to win the competition, and she probably would've lost the lip sync - it's not what she does and Ru was done with her. So she used the moment to make A Moment. No one is going to forget it, she gets more attention, she makes some coin. It was a smart move! And I gagged! (at the end of the day the show is entertainment and I was entertained by this twist!)

[@gisellefendi5793]

I thought it was great TV too but I can see how it was disrespectful. Kind of like when Valentina refused to take off her mask to properly lip sync. It was an amazing TV moment but you aren't exactly following the rules of the competition to lip sync when you're in the bottom. But these kinds of moments are the moments that make the best TV.

[@MirandaScully]

@@gisellefendi5793 I have also realised that maybe it's more likely to happen on drag race uk where they don't win any money, so you may get more exposure with a stunt than staying in the competition. It isn't polite, it's a bit punk rock, but maybe more in line with British drag. More disruptive than polished! But definitely I can see why former contestants would find it disrespectful, yeah.

[@NeonKodiak]

Exactly

[@BifiHasi]

Agreed. It was a very smart move of her - and in character. After being in the bottom despite improv being her strongest suit, she knew she would'nt last much longer in the competition anyways. Especially after already going out of her comfort zone and trying the sexy feminine stick, which she couldn't fully grow into and perfect in such a short span of time in order to win the competition. I think she could've won that lipsync and stayed on if she really wanted to, but at what price? Sister hasn't really made a big impression yet and she seemed like she would've been extremely devastated to go home at this point. And Ginny had realized she herself wouldn't get much more out of staying in the competition. Her exit was both punk-rock and gracious and it made for some good TV. She will most definitely be remembered for it.
