[@farrahcoulee6701]

You know drag is going VH1 level mainstream when a video of drag queen kikiing together people are commenting "they're too loud" 😂 y'all don't know NOTHING

[@farrahcoulee6701]

If these fans have been in the audience since season 1 we wouldn't have "bitch I'm from Chicago", sugar daddy speech, Heather's vs boogers, "go back to party City" and Mimi vs everyone because these peeps would think they're too rude. BORING.

[@christmastiger]

@@farrahcoulee6701 Girl, unless that is a recently changed username doesn't sound like you've been watching since season 1 yourself. Also, to be fair the fact the show is VH1 level mainstream (despite being one of their lowest rated shows) is why the queens are especially loud now, girls were not fighting for screen time, limelight, and a "front page of twitter" moment so hard back in those days.

[@farrahcoulee6701]

@@christmastiger oh no Raja and Jujubee were my first favs but I can't help that Farrah and Shea manage to be my ult favs after 10 seasons 😘 and I don't agree there, season 2 was a literal fightfest, Mimi imfurst lifted up a screaming India, Phi Phi exists, drag queens have always been loud, it's in the nature of working in clubs, people just brand everything they do as for attention nowadays and that's what's annoying

[@moua64]

Vanjie SNATCHED that mic right out of Silky’s hands lol. Silky totally shutdown after that.

I’m glad they talked about scarlet not wearing makeup in her entrance look

[@royery]

and they all talked about her beard... i guess it's pretty noticeable whenever she's in drag? we don't notice it on tv but maybe in person it is. Then again, her out of drag is hot and seems to love having facial hair.

[@kylecolasurdo927]

Aeon yea
