Rpdr Season 17 Episode 1 Rawview!

[@BrandonJames2016]

Nina ik you said you and lucky aren’t on speaking terms but I just thought it’s so beautiful to see your impact and aesthetic being shown on drag race again. We’ve seen plenty of fashion, camp, and pageant runways but never has anyone given us what you gave us on S9. Like seeing her entrance look just reminded me of how iconic your entrance look was to your iconic first runway being the peach look. I thought lucky should’ve been top 2 with Jewels honestly but the cast voted differently but she’ll likely be third if we see the results. It just made me so happy to see her on my screen and what she’s delivering on the show cause she’s getting a lot of love and plenty of “robbed of being top 2” discussions. Hopefully being on the show helps her and her family. Also rip to a legend The Vivienne what a wonderful person and entertainer truly a huge loss my condolences go out to her loved ones. Very cool to find out Lucky could’ve been on Dragula.

[@krissykriss328]

I couldn't of said it better myself. ❤

[@cluelessoasis300]

Yes!! Like It just gives that sad remorseful yet proud energy, like I root for their relationship to be mended If they desire to do so

[@blondielocs6909]

Yesss I know they’re not on speaking terms but it gave me a warm feeling seeing Nina’s aesthetic being shown on DR again and being appreciated 💯❤️

[@tattlethetale]

I agree. It’s one of those things where even if people don’t wanna acknowledge it or put a name on it, we see it. Even the pizza look, it was such a clear inspiration that it kinda made me happy regardless of the relationship between Nina and Miss Stars. Also the fact that she actually looks well put together for the most part is like 👏🏾 love to see it. A nice polished representation of the inspiration that comes from a seasoned, well read, and influential Queen.

Nina you are truly the Elphaba of drag lowkey...like you are put down by people who don't have a clue about who you really are. You're also the most powerful, have the most magic and real talent that others dream about having. Love ya queen

Watching you talk about Lucky, even though you're not on good terms, makes me love you even more. You're so talented, sickening, creative, and an icon, and I hope to see more of you. I literally watch most of your videos more than once. You deserve all the great things. Thank you for serving us this talent all the time.

[@krissykriss328]

@@jericgilcobilla4856 Nina is a good human being. Gives honest critiques, ( good or bad) and keeps it real no matter who the Queen is, that's why I'm a lifelong Piggie.

[@zoozbuh]

Just FYI, Lucky did say “shout out to the piggies” in an interview. Whether he was referring to Nina or it’s another private joke in the cast, I’m not sure, but in my delusional head it was his “SECRET” way to give love to Nina.

[@Aloemauri]

Yes :( rest in peace to The Vivienne and the other victims of these sad events. Please stay prayed up and protected everyone ❤️

[@blooodytwins]

sad events? what do you mean

[@Aloemauri]

@ the lives lost in the Nola attack. And there’s other stories other places that news haven’t covered like many plane crashes.

[@Aloemauri]

@ Nina is very caring. I don’t think it’s your place to judge how people show “empathy”. Her moment of silences she does are very thoughtful. Have a good day

[@cigslit]

@@a1x2y3z4 you can tell how really empathetic she is but some of you are only used to the fake made up personalities of other people who act like they care, and you love those kind of people that's why nina is cancelled and those demons are thriving, you literally can't comprehend an honest being

Usually am a silent watcher but thank you for the laughs Nina ❤

[@theonlydahli]

I'm glad you decided against skipping Lucky on the show. I'm sure it brings up a lot of complicated feelings but it fills me with joy when I see you rooting/cheering for her despite all of it. Love your look, I don't even know how you managed to do this on your face! Keep being great.

Oink! Oink! Oink! First of all, I am very sorry for being away for awhile. Been thru some tough times and been super hectic at work. Anyway, I’m happy to be back and right in time with S17 rawview 😉 hahahaha. Anyway, i sooo love this random look… It just proves how creative you are as always. I’m betting on Lexi this season… She’s giving that aura… But we’ll see. Too early to say… I also hope that they take that rate a queen next time… It’s quite unfair for the queens. Wishing you all the best this 2025. Hope to get to meet u one day. Take care… Thank you once again for doing this 👼🙏🏽😘🥂🥰❤️

ngl I’m so happy to see Lucky/Alain on the screen because they really remind me so much of you in season 9 🤩. Like seeing the amazing artistic looks, your guys’ fun personality, genuineness/authenticity and always staying true to yourself. Anyways I hope somehow you guys get to reconnect, and make great things together again like the cute skits you used to include with Kam as well lol! Thank you so much Pierre for feeding us piggies! I’m truly grateful for you sharing your talent, and I admire your resiliency so much! Oink oink 💚💗🐷🐷

I just wanna say how much I love this look. It’s so creative, it’s so edgy but fun. Like I’m in awe with how your mind works. You saw that hat and you came up with this whole character for it. That colour blue, the kinda bunny esque features, the sewing and chains. Sickening. Anyway the squid game foolery skit had me dead lol. And this rawview was really fun as always.

Happy season 17!!! Love you Pierre and it’s always a pleasure to see your craft and giving me something to look forward to seeing on KZbin. You are one of a kind! Also one quick question for you. I am thinking of starting drag and I’m 20 years old still living with my parents. They would most definitely be against it and how do you think I should go about that? I don’t know if I want to do it as a full time career yet but if you have any suggestions for me I would love to hear it!

[@weakassfadestan1681]

Gotta a lot to say about this premiere. First, I didn’t know that lucky was tied to you or is/was your daughter. But I was thinking the whole time that she has your performance mannerisms. Your mentorship speaks volumes. Idk what went down with you two but I love how you still support and care for that person. Secondly, I feel like you’re going to enjoy this season bc you are more involved with the cast even tho you prolly feel like the franchise dislikes you. Just know your brand and style is all over this new generation of drag. And you deserve your flowers. Mannn I love you. Please continue to be you! ❤

[@AlvaroVillaArt]

Nina/Pierre I apologize if this brings the energy down but seeing how sudden The Vivienne passed it truly shocked me seeing a drag race girl pass and especially one who won the show and my immediate thought is how unappreciated and mean these fan can be twords a real living breathing queer person who has a mom and dad or family members that love them and seeing Lucky Stars on that show is truly a manifestation of your impact on them but also the fans and supporters who truly see your visions and point of view as an Artist. I pray for your health and hope we have you here for a very long healthy time!💕 I wish this for your mom and dad as well as your sister and neices, because I know they love youuu and care about you and I've watched plenty of lives throughout the years to know how much of a good person you are to them and the strangers you encounter throughout your errands and your humor is beyond entertaining and I thank you and give you your flowers always!💐 🙏

[@booskie4316]

It's good that you find compliments for folks who may not care for you because toxicity has a tendency to poison the person expressing it more than the person it's aimed at. It creates a pattern of negative and hateful thoughts that inevitably get aimed at yourself. Focusing on the positive is harder, but will pay dividends in the future.
