Holi-slay Spectacular: The Cursed Drag Race Christmas Special

I am aware that I'm somewhat see-through in this video. I could blame the lighting and the green screen but instead I'm saying it's an artistic choice. If it's distracting, just imagine me as the ghost of Christmas past. See, keeping it on theme.

no literally the time it wouldve made the MOST sense to have shangie come out of a box and they DONT DO IT 😭

[@MaddyLockman]

I thought you said Shaggy and now I can't unsee

[@criminalrappergreasygod8886]

I agree. I love the fake terrible RuPaul and Michelle lip sync. It’s so stupid it’s hilarious and it’s my favourite part of the special. Whoever was acting as Ru was turning it out tho tbh

[@airtempest8945]

I feel the same way about it that I feel about Meghan Trainor's Me Too. Taken unironically, it's horrible, but it's so inept in every possible way that it loops around to iconic and always making me laugh.

[@aryelynet228]

the todrick slander 💀 (absolutely warranted)

[@spiderdude2099]

You love to see it

[@pembrokelove]

Im so proud to see it.

[@bondfool]

How did I not see it coming? 😂

[@lil1708]

you’re kinda like the drag race community equivalent of kurtis conner

You mean he has a moustache

OMG THATS SO TRUE GIVJFKDLALQKQO

[@oscarkamala]

also the drama behind the scenes is so funny, just jasmine misunderstanding a situation and leaving, an icon edit: i’m referring to jasmine misunderstanding shangela asking for more pay for all the queens

[@pusslicious]

jasmines runway being completely silent makes me giggle everytime

[@januarymilk9347]

elf matthews has never ceased haunting my dreams

[@brickmariobros]

Honestly, I think it would have been cool if they did an actual Christmas competition, and they aired the finale on Christmas. Think about it, 6 episodes, they have a Christmas take on each challenge, like a Snatch game where they must do a Christmas character, a Christmas rusical, or maybe even a sewing challenge where they have to make an outfit out of Christmas Decorations. And the winner of the season would either win like, $20,000, or a spot on the next All Stars Season.

[@cass.ettetape]

I watched this with my mother and it was one of her first drag race experiences

[@magnoliacrawford4065]

Haha what she think?

[@AndreLuizSeco]

she's homophobic now

[@rhysdarr4774]

SAME HAHA

[@GigglesandGoobs]

Honestly this whole thing just reminded me of when I leave my sims alone in the sims 4 and they just do really weird shit😊

[@amydaskilewicz9076]

When I watched this, halfway through my wife said, "Wait a minute...Darrienne Lake isn't in this"

[@modernmagica2515]

the escalating insanity of this special is truly unmatched

[@amaisbeladetodas2065]

I love that you think that every pit crew is called Bruno😂😂😂😂

[@BorediththeUSA]

The rupaul body double in the lip sync is so funny

[@AnnaAlexandra_]

I'm so insanely dumb bc the first time I watched this I actually believed that was Ru an Michelle lipsyncing and I was like damn I didn't know they were this good 😂😂😂. I am embarrassed by this every day

[@DhiscoStu]

This xmas special was a low point in the queens lives and a high point in mine

[@zo81677]

Latrice’s “get those chestnuts away from my face” is my favorite part lmao

[@ClaytonGoldhawk]

Im sorry ya'll but I kind of love this special. Its so cursed and bad that its just full blown camp. I was cackling the whole first time I saw it.

[@Housewarmin]

This was the most obvious cash grab from Dragrace. It was so unorganized and seemed like a fever dream.

[@mochs62512]

I still don't believe it's real. I had the worst secondhand embarrassment lol

[@ProjectLethargic]

I don't know why but for some reason hulu put this between the season 6 premieres when I was getting around to watching older seasons (I had just got into drag race) and I was so scared and confused and I nearly stopped watching season 6 because of it

[@XOyo-kaiWatch]

No joke I literally thought the ru Paul and Michelle lipsync was really and all I thought was how nobody knew how was everyone not posting about it like 3yrs after it’s release so when I flew home for new year I showed my mom this and she was the one that crushed my dreams and told me it was fake MY MOM

[@lrizzard]

Youre so püre and gullible for that bless you

[@minlife1054]

no bc ur so right this should be listed as an international war crime

[@TheAbigailDee]

Honestly, I would just die for Kylie. Getting to see her again before AS6 was so nice and seeing the fandom be so excited about her made me so happy. She was someone who deserves everything!! And seeing Mayhem and Latrice makes everything worth it. I would just watch Latrice and Mayhem and Kylie vibing for hours.

[@andrewjones7800]

I LOVE Trixies laugh so freaking much.

[@derekeb1]

*bird noises 😂😂😂

[@Waraba_]

12:50 He just described “camp” lmao

[@Nehu_22]

I LOVED Mayhem's runway, but I loved Sonique's too, it's something I would wear I think

[@chadabouttodie9824]

i watched this special half asleep and kept waking up to the most insane parts, the next day i thought it was a weird dream but no.. it exists...

[@Eughwwww]

"Slow and reverbed song from Cher's abba album" took me out 🙏 🪦

[@saturdaysyndrome]

I only watched it for Mayhem & Sonique, and they didn’t disappoint ~among everything else~ P, I was wondering if you can make a first impressions on RPDR Season 15? Thank you! Much love from 🇨🇦🤗

[@SakariWolf13]

The only way this could have been better is the ending where RuPaul and Michelle Visage wake up screaming, telling each other that they had a weird dream where everyone was a winner and they lipsynced against each other. Then they realize they are in the same bed, scream at one another and it cuts to RuPaul waking up screaming in a bed full of money and the Pit Crew. Ru sighs in relief and wishes the audience a happy Xmas, whether it is white or...green. Then, the pit crew make it rain money over RuPaul.

[@sarahbrady4673]

ur my favorite rpdr creator... please never stop being a buffer between this insanity and my wellbeing

[@austinrawr]

this was the first drag race related thing i ever saw

[@bondfool]

This episode is so much more fun to watch when you know what to expect.

[@lachlanburroughs8]

My favourite episode of Drag Race ever.

[@Azii14-je5bq]

And the best part about ru and Michelle’s lip sync is the fact that the stunt doubles weren’t even wearing the same shoes or similar😭😭😭😭😭 (just look close)

[@daniel6678]

no you don’t understand I am OBSESSED with the christmas special. it is a MASTERPIECE of camp and no one can tell me otherwise. it’s a fucking fever dream from start to finish and doesn’t make any goddamn sense for even a fraction of a second - 10/10, no notes, it’s perfect

[@pseudonymous9153]

Did we all just imagine that together? Were we all in the same dream?

[@josmos1182]

THE MAYHEM MOMENT PLEASEEEEEEEE THAT MADE ME CACKLEEEE

[@therobotdevil2284]

This channel is underrated AF I'm so glad I found it from Kayla Says 💯😭 Thank you for this unhinged review of the most unhinged "episode" lol

[@bensadowitz3741]

I remember waking up at 5:00 AM to watch the episode and then... You know…

[@airtempest8945]

There are exactly two things worth watching from this: The hilariously bad "Rupaul" vs "Michelle" (AKA their body doubles) lip sync Mayhem Miller absolutely slaughtering everyone with one of the best runways from the entire series and going hard in the lip sync for no reason. Everything else....why.

[@marcouscous527]

You are so charismatic and funny and gorgeous damn

[@lucasamm]

H*rny jail

[@l0st1t2b0st1k]

In keeping with the Christmas spirit: Holi-Slay Spectacular = meme of anime Jesus on the phone calling God to start the Rapture.

[@Amsayy]

I watched this Christmas special about 6/7 times over Christmas. I clearly didn't actually watch it because I didn't remember any of this.

[@mau_verd]

I love your energy! Looking forward to seeing more videos by you! :D

[@jmlxvr]

Been binging your videos today and have BEEN thirsty all day as well but... it's the Christmas sweater for me 🤤? 🤣😂

[@skeletonbone]

they need to do this again but with nina bonina brown because i just want to see her on my TV again so bad and idk if nina would go back for all stars

[@skeletonbone]

actually just jasmine and nina on the holislay 2 electric boogaloo

[@magnoliacrawford4065]

I didn't watch the special just clips on yt. The ru michelle lipsync was funny tho.

[@miss-jazz-deez9415]

I have watch it more then 5 time’s in one year😭

I just subbed to you a couple weeks ago and im so happy I found you. Loving your videos.

i forgot about this, need to watch asap

[@hannahsloas7145]

I’m so glad I found your account. I subscribed immediately!! Love your content!!!! ✨🦋✨

[@harryhasbadeyesight7207]

the best episode ever actually

[@BeIlG]

I think this episode was a Christmas gift to the gays to see what a normal season looks like to a straight person. lol. thus the phrase slay...and sleigh. coincidence....I THINK NOT!

[@evocircuit]

i still think the ru michelle lip sync should have ended with everyone telling michelle to leave

[@softcameo]

by the way your content together i thought you a much bigger channel !! keep it up, manifesting big numbers for you.

[@vincentbiddle]

I love you too 😢 Like seriously, you're adorable and I really like watching your videos

[@MarcelinoSoliz]

I loved the Christmas special. It’s stupid and fun. 😊

[@franciscajardimcorreia6968]

Never saw the episode but this video made wanna watch it so bas

[@napoleonsdauphin]

I love your videos. Keep up the great work! That episode was bonkers and I had forgotten just how dumb the whole thing was.

You know what's more homophobic than shangela coming out of a box, calling shawn bruno

Omg we need more of things/segments/specials etc. you hated 🤭

Lmfao i watched this almost love and it was awful But i did love the absurdity of ru and mochelle body doubles dancing and twerking and what not loool

[@adrianobier7593]

Now I need to watch the gay version of Inception! Ps: so glad we love each other now.

The way I NEED more RunnerEye content 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥵🥵🥵🥵🔥🔥🔥🥇🥇🏆🏆🏅🎖️

[@ramenlover1696]

I fucking loved this special it’s so camp and funny. I just don’t take it seriously at all and I think that’s the point. It’s bad and fun

[@daphnegnd3889]

Ok I’ve subscribed and going to watch previous videos 😄 So can you please make videos (if possible) as you said in this very video 😂

[@WoozidanTassia]

Incredibly unpopular opinion but I absolutely loved it and it was such a joy, I was devastated when they took it off Netflix, but I was obsessed Sure it wasn't great and the "You all are the Christmas queen" thing was meh (Mayhem christmas queen) but it was so fun

[@PeacePassi]

why was this video recommended to me in June? I'll guess happy pride :)

[@ThatFont]

The only person I’d hire to be Michelle is Bendelacreme

[@smaugkat]

Thanks daddy, love you too!

[@lune78]

The only purpose of this special was to promote Ru's Christmas albums. Period.

[@DelosFive]

Wait… did you call Shawn “Bruno”??

[@Kruguerex]

The pit crew members with the box that popped wasn’t Bruno

[@MarcelinoSoliz]

Hey baby. We’re at love. Im honored.

[@Anonymous36]

Everybody remembers where they were when this aired

[@jcmendezify]

i mean you know this was to promote ru's Christmas album right?

[@spvvky]

Some of these kids need to look up what camp is. That's what the Michelle vs Ru lip sync was. Pure. High. Camp. It's the only great part of this madness.

[@Shae29]

Why do you look exactly like my co-worker and friend Dominic😂😂😂

[@Mevenda1]

I liked it. It was stupid and aimless lol.

[@carrie4144]

Is it bad that I really liked the Special?

[@aalsom3790]

I really hoped they'd do more episodes like this (also like the boulet brother's half-halloween show) where it's just fun and silly and camp and DRAG like, do people just not actually like drag? Seeing queens performing without competing and having a good time and entertaining people? idk, i think i was high when i watched it tbh, it sucked but it was great

[@salomehonorio6594]

i think it'd do the public interest great harm if i was not to remark how CUTE you are.

[@demas5334]

👋🏻

[@amaisbeladetodas2065]

When I first watched this special i was a barely new D.r. fan, so i truly believed in that "RuPaul vs Michelle" lipsync 😂😂😂 I was like "omg, RuPaul really proved why she is a legend" 😂😂😂

[@leonardo70235]

Gosh, you are so cute

[@franciscoc6011]

Husband

[@bluereadingdolphin]

I honestly thought I made this episode up oh my god What was this and why

[@itsdragherjade]

first!

[@gppaula]

You're so cute.

[@andrewjones7800]

Sh*ngela 🤢

[@kev7600]

Well…I’d rather watch this episode again although it’s stupid compared to any episode of season 13 😆
