[@bixl2343]

This sounds dumb, but if Bimini wins do a Vegan Mukbang

[@Embella123]

I'm sure there's delicious vegan takeout in Chicago

[@ericm3088]

Considering she invented veganism 7 years ago? I agree!

[@jneal5582]

yesss I would love to watch this

[@ernestmaravilla9788]

omg yess

[@mikeee.2048]

Love the

[@Jaqexizr]

why am I so invested in this Alexis storyline

[@timahtoo]

Why am I not .....maybe it’s taking the piss out of vulnerable people

[@aquariussolaris2492]

[@goncalo1531]

category for this video: severely expensive looking wigs... y’all won

[@paulhousbeymakeup]

Darby telling her dad that the design is selling a lot just so she could send him money is the cutest thing ever 🥺❤️

[@valentinrowzay]

Awhora explained that her grandmother wanted them to bleep out that she had a gaping hole cause she was on the dating scene and she wanted to keep it a secret 🤫

[@dancewalkertarot]

That dress is everything, Alexis.

[@GustavoFernandesKing]

but a dress. lol jk

[@apersoninthecorner]

Watching people authentically argue over the running order of a show with a total audience of four people was truly funny to me

[@souptax666]

So glad to see Darby embracing her natural hair color, aging with grace

[@jaspershepherd8160]

You guys should sell signed copies of Darby’s dads drawing. It’s more money for him, and a sentimental gift for the fans

[@UnahVerse]

I mean Darby did say no.

[@jamesgreen1598]

Censorship in the 1800’s in the UK was done with a blue pencil, hence the joke was too blue to perform. 💙

[@sillydogfarms2983]

Good to know!

[@sway2382]

Oh, see, there are other old theatre nerds around that know the reference! Yay.

[@420greatestqueen]

Darby’s dad is really talented

[@jackcool914]

Darby saying she hates Piers Morgan and now he’s off Good Morning Britain....ugh her mind!

[@anthonyeli1084]

The movie about the stoning... was it called The Lottery? It’s a short story about a town that stones a random person to death and I think it was made into a movie in the 90s???

[@kam_erdgeist2479]

I came to the comments to see if anyone else had mentioned this already ^^

[@MichaelHowrie]

As an absolute and self-aware Tayce stan, I just want to see if anyone else agrees that if she'd been given a slightly different edit/more positive (deserved) feedback from the judges she would be a CLEAR frontrunner.

[@longshotdreams]

Here’s some info: Awhora did an interview and explained why they were so pissed. Off camera Ellis initially asked them how they wanted to be lined up and Bimini took the first slot, Lawrence took the last, then Ellie was second, Awhora in the middle, then Tayce before Lawrence. They had all talked about this lineup and Ellie said “okay good” - but then once they started filming Ellie started fiddling with h the lineup again, and put them all in their new positions. That’s why Awhora and Lawrence were so angry. She told them they’d get the spots they wanted, then thought reorganizing them so everyone would suffer would benefit her... and then she ended up in the bottom. Maybe it’s just me, but if I’m competing I want to know I’m the best. So I want to beat the best. I would have stacked the comedy show the way it’s normally done, a strong opener and closer, then the less experienced folks in the middle. So I’d either have to rise to the occasion and outshine one of the pros, or I hopefully end up safe. Ellie did all of this switching and still ended up in the bottom!

[@maeahem]

I think she realized being after Bimini was not going to benefit her maybe. And while she was in the bottom, she should have owned that she switched the line up without apology. Although Awhora and Lawrence had the right to be mad, they put themselves at a disadvantage being so bothered. All through the episode right until Untucked and even the preview for the next episode? It’s a bit much. What she did was not that horrible.

[@formy52]

I mean regardless of the shenanigans they went on about it far too much to be healthy. Be annoyed for a little bit sure, but they just *kept* going on and on and on it was honestly getting tired.

[@k.a.7534]

Ra'jah, Jan and Alexis: inventors of the color purple

[@lizisasleep]

It sounds like you're describing some version of Shirley Jackson's short story The Lottery.

[@robyngonzales8698]

am i the only one who noticed darby was kinda stalling after alexis left for a bit 😭 like she was waiting for her to come back

[@GatesOfElysia]

Day ??? of me randomly saying "You're big" to myself at any given moment

[@SL-og1qf]

Alexis is low-key the host

[@ItsBobbieDrake]

from intern to host.

[@haleyjadelovethatname]

low-key but also highkey

[@BilalEllis]

whispers: don't tell darbyyy

[@BlingbyBrenton]

I’m working on healing the broken relationship with my dad and it really does mean a lot to hear about you talking with your dad no matter the circumstances. It reminds me that things can always get better. Love you guys.

[@hyperballadbradx6486]

Also, so right about Awhora. It doesn't matter what place you come in, if your material isn't good, it isn't good. It's the same with acting challenges. You make the role work. If it's bad, that's on you, not the role.

[@evangeline77x]

I live for Sasha Belle!!! I wish that more people would check out Sasha's channel, her series Sasha Belle's drag race was so good and features so many amazing local Iowa queens.. Real Drag Wives was another great one.. And her newest show, Frisbee Jenkins Mug Race which features a dozen queens creating themed looks every week, with no eliminations so everyone stays till the end and it's so good! Sasha deserves all the love, and appreciation

[@GorginaGORG]

I'm obsessed with Darby's wig, I would never thought of those two colors together, but it's so beautiful!

[@HailEmpress]

I played this video on my laptop in my kitchen and when Darby asked Alexis "UK?" my Alexa answered. I almost shit myself honestly.

[@caitlinf2554]

I was waiting for more Danny content and not even 45 seconds in that’s what I got lmao

[@ShAmOxO]

Please, keep us updated on Alexis’ relationship with Danny

[@valentinrowzay]

Is Alexis ok? She seems off this episode but I hope she’s ok 🙂

[@JoeBrox]

She's in love

[@thotsmahogany7268]

I think Danny needed a new phone cause he dropped it off the rig, so she had to buy him a new one

[@airwreckwrecker2701]

Chan gives me a little Nicki Minaj in the face I need her to dress up as her

[@jt.769]

omg that would be everything

[@gymratcarpediem7761]

Hey Darby about your scary movie we had to study the famous short story "The Lottery" in school in English class. The story is scarier than the movie. I remember how disturbing it was. The story was written by Shirley Jackson in 1948. The idea was that by stoning a citizen to death once a year it gave vent to all the negative feelings of the townspeople and kept them peaceful. In the story you do not know what is going to happen to the person who "wins" the lottery until the very last moment. Definitely worth reading. It's horrifying.

[@valentinrowzay]

That wig on darby is so 🥰🥰 like omg

[@fionaaas]

wig??? that’s all natural

[@sTr8UpANG3L]

Ugh I’m so glad y’all posted! I have been so bored with the 2 week break since I can’t watch UK😭 much love💜💜💜

[@Ray-rq2mm]

I'm wondering how many ppl are stalking Alexis's social media looking for this 'Danny' character

[@greynotchristian]

auntie Chan giving discount Tayce entrance

[@greynotchristian]

@Mush yeah :D

[@chanceanding4284]

@Mush why pay so much money when you can get the same thing for less money

[@MobyFitzwilliam]

I think the Ru wig is facelift related

[@mathewsaraujo6241]

He could've worn a hat?

[@ChepoVales]

The P stands for "Please Chan, aPply for drag race"

[@potatocorners]

I remember reading The Lottery as a short story in junior high school and when I tell you how skewed my perception of humanity was between that and the Giver...

[@ernestmaravilla9788]

idk y they made us read that now were all fucked up lmao

[@shantanupanda1650]

I love how Alexis is painted for the Libyan summer

[@stuartpounds7715]

43:00 Darby explaining to Chan that childhood poverty in the 80's and 90's is Ron Regan's fault. Me screaming out loud.

[@MR-rn3jl]

'Blue language' [as far as I know] is called that because sailors and especially members of the navy [who had blue uniforms] were notorious for their cursing & vulgar language, so it was referred to as 'blue talk'.

[@LollyPolly813]

Thank you! Alexis i lurve you but this is the Blue truth. Blue collar darlin including the sailor blue gig is the real reference to a "blue joke".

[@juliedawson8027]

I am a 45 year old woman with a rock tumbler!!!! And it actually takes more like 4-6 weeks to do them properly.... no wonder I am single....

[@erich7861]

I really didnt think Id be able to handle both drag races, but Im so glad yall are coming out with so much content.

[@daltoncnewcomb]

I’m from the Houston (La Porte actually) and I love y’all and thank you for raising money for Texas because of the winter disaster. Love you and appreciate you.

[@MyCrunchyPodcast]

Where did Alexis reallyy go???? Lol

[@cola4230]

to film S14

[@z0mbxtch]

Alexis Is Giving Me Fairy Godmother From Shrek Tease...Im Living!!!

[@cloudy_dreams99]

I related to tayce so much her energy is very child who has had too many sweets

[@KeyingUrCar]

Alexis scrolling past the screen might just make my day EVERY SINGLE TIME

[@wrensandroses]

The Lottery was based in a short story that was made into a play. We did it at my catholic school. I played a townsperson.

[@bencaswell2550]

Yasss Darby stepping in with "Drowning Mona!" When life gives you potatoes, make potato salad!

[@zoozbuh]

23:27 - “I think it’s because the BBC has very strict rules about propriety” Really? No, I don’t think...Don’t you remember anything about the first UK season? The frock destroyers... “despunk my balls”. Literally every episode was jam-packed with sexual innuendos and filth. Also, BBC Three in particular has always been known for pushing the envelope with risqué/black comedy and things that wouldn’t be deemed “proper” enough. If anything, I feel like they could get away with more than the US season!! Ru is just kidding when he talks about the BBC in that way tbh.

[@MyCrunchyPodcast]

The gworls look EXPENSIVE today!!🔥

[@david_8924]

Honestly, I'm going to say it: Alexis makes the whole show! The dynamic and back and forth with her just continually sprout little moments of joy

[@shawnathans5868]

Fun fact: I was in the play version if the lottery and played the little boy who threw the first stone at his mom when they were stoning her to death

[@nestxor738]

OMG you look SO GOOD in a gray/silver wig! I think that should be your signature hair color and slay the house down BOOTS!!!

[@teillean]

You’ll be pleased to know that Piers has left GMB

[@eels3658]

Surely "going blue" refers to "blue-collar humor"? Not that I don't prefer Alexis' explanation. ^^;

[@theembersinside1420]

💯💯💯

[@marshallmonks9819]

Would 100% buy a postcard print of that lil caricature!!!!

[@eddiebannayan7203]

i'm rewatching these high as hell and i literally can't stop laughing 😭 u guys are so funny

[@freneticaesthetica]

The “Drowning Mona” reference 😭😭😭

[@hennysanchezangulo132]

Hey IMHO? will you review DR Down Under and DR Spain?

[@wetchickensuit1203]

Dawn French is also one of the creators of hit UK comedy Ab Fab, and The Vicar of Dibley - a true comedy legend!

[@JD-gg8uq]

46:25 “you choose your battles“ Chans quickness is on another level, still makes me giggle (Alexis‘ style)

[@jacob8uup]

"Yeah, choke." - Aunty Chan (re: Piers Morgan)

[@ssbpichu326]

18:27 Darby has to be stopped. I know for a fact god didn't want you to pull a Pearl Harbor doing Memory at Nightgowns Pride 2018 parody of Both Sides Now.

[@xxfireages]

baby i DIED when chan said I grew up playing pokemon and you grew up playing rocks?? how far were we born apart?? hahahaha

[@adamadamwoo789]

Jackhammer is currently being renovated

[@parkerhemlock677]

"so, balls! -" Darby 2021

[@liampurcy]

Alexis with the Badger Badger Badger reference, I'm here for it

[@margaesperanza]

I hate how people forgot that Ellie and Lawrence have joint merch and did photoshoots together post drag-race. The bullying they sent Lawrence over an episode that happened months ago was uncalled for.

[@gjluerei]

auntie chan serving tayce's entrance look and we love it 💕

[@theembersinside1420]

Congrats on 20k!! And loved seeing Alexis in the opening clip! 💜🤘🏻

[@alexperry8561]

Congratulations on 20k subscribers ladies!!!

[@jaso4455]

Ellie Diamond is definitely the Cheryl Hole of this season(assuming she doesn't get a badge this week)

[@tristanour]

Cheryl was low every episodes she was in, Ellie was high a lot of time

[@alexcarlson4344]

@Mush ikr! Offensive

[@vickylikesthis]

Alexis in the illustration is so cute!

[@alexmclean7001]

23:40 Well... that gaping hole closed up 🤣🤣🤣

[@Blankgeneration19777]

Jackhammer closed for good?! Thinking of that basement is what’s been keeping me going this whole year lol

[@blaze56701]

Ahoras exit line was a reference to the DESGUSTANG clip which you can find on KZbin where this British mum shout at her children for 💩 on the toilet

[@tylerwardley1812]

Darbys hair is everything just perfect

[@calvinmamis4664]

Darby was the movie “the lottery” ???

[@mellynn374]

I cannot take my eyes off of any of you. I feel like I'm making myself dizzy taking in all of your looks. 😂 You are all STUNNING, this episode especially. ❤️

[@flynnbarbary9806]

Rupaul's Drag Race: Woomelang, Victoria.

[@RoodyToody]

That drawing is really cute and what makes it even more special is where it came from ❤🧡💛💚💙

[@clayzarinelli5218]

nothing like the sound of that rock tumbler going 24/7 in the garage

[@koppcsi]

I was so happy to see Olympia Avalanche as a guest judge this week 😍

[@Somosixn]

IF I DONT GET.,, AN IMHO ROAST. WE WILL HAVE SOME WORDS LADIES

[@echoredux8852]

OH we looking GOOD good this episode huh

[@scottsearles13]

I love a conversation between two peeps, but a third party (who narrows the convo (kinda) sometimes) is always cool too.

[@noahhawke6227]

They look so good. Their drag is just getting better imho 🙈

[@antonyware]

Where is the US snatch game episode??

[@pika23]

My theater closed, that had the 3.50 matinee

[@rareandshinytrader]

I love Darby’s dryer lint wig

[@lukewarmmess_]

Um please sell that design as merch!! It’s so cute!!!!

[@wilmafistfit4788]

I had a rock tumbler when I was a kid too lol the Smithsonian one

[@Footyimba]

I can't find the pay per view of the livestream :(

[@kiwikiwi6299]

me waiting for the two next reviews for RPDR

[@rubytxt]

LOVE the spontaneous mii channel accapella singing

[@hyperballadbradx6486]

Do I need to watch to the end and condense my comments into one?? 🤣🤣

[@JPoww]

42:16 Darby giving GenX vibes. I didn't even think she's that much older than Chan and Alexis.

[@isaiahdooley5953]

Omg that cartwheel was amazing even though we didn’t see it 😍

[@anthonygerhart31397]

Did you hear the reason that they were so mad? Awhora talked alot about what they didn't show - bimini and lawrence both said they'd open / close the show and awhora said she was fine going in any position other than first.

[@anthonygerhart31397]

Love Ellie doing what she needed to do; but just explains a lil more about why Lawrence and Awhora were so vibrantly angry lol

[@anthonygerhart31397]

I was very much like Tayce myself just sitting there like, just do it ig gal issa competition sis
