[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, listen, all for what we understand, the episode where we was doing British accents was smashing. Everyone was obsessed.

[Monet X Change]

Babes, babes. They loved it so much. They loved it. Really? They loved it a lot. They really did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The comments were mad.

[Monet X Change]

Every single one. Everyone's like, every single one.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Every episode like this never stop. And. And. And right for your Scottish accent, they were loving it.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. You know what I mean? It's just like the way that we just vibe and, like, talk like that. Like, they just really love it. And they really love.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We gotta stop before they unsubscribe.

[Monet X Change]

We literally play too much. Yo, they said y' all niggas need to stop playing in our motherfucking places with these dumbass accents. Y' all sound dumb. I want to read some comments. Because some of the comments, they were so mean. I was cracking up reading some of the comments.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was even trying to have fun or something. Like, y' all look dumb as hell. I'm gonna read something too. Because they were out of control.

[Monet X Change]

This is from Lou Lafandango. Oh, my God. I'm five minutes into the accents, and as a Brit, I can't cop crying emoji. It's giving more Aussie than Brit. It's painful. And from the comments, it looks like it's all the way through. I'm not gonna make it. Exclamation, Exclamation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Bob and wait. Bob and Monet. Accents really brought us on a tour of the Commonwealth that covered England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Singapore, St. Lucia, Cyprus. This was wild.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Someone said, if y' all don't do terrible jafaking accents, next, I'm gonna be pissed. Yo, Brooke, up. Brooke, up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know how to do daily press report.

[Monet X Change]

I saw that. That would crack me up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Someone's thinking, report our content anyway.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, it was. Yeah, they were. They were not feeling the accent. So we. Notes received, and we will not be doing X anymore. We got it. We got it, Bob. Is the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Seven racers racist. Start your engine and make Stacey Abrams win. Actually.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, overall, going through this final episode, where do you think this season? Well, I mean, I guess we should do at the end. Never where it ranks in terms of Drag Race seasons for you. We'll do it at the end. It makes sense to do it at the end.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can we do All Star seasons? Cause I don't want to do. I don't want to do it with the reggae seasons.

[Monet X Change]

Like, I don't want to do.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't want to mix it with the reggae seasons, because I think if we do is gonna be reggae. Reggae. It's like, short for regular. It's restaurant. It's a restaurant. People say reggae in restaurants a lot. They say, can I get a reggae potato? Like, Meaning, I want it regular.

[Monet X Change]

I never knew that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Can I get a reggae, Meaning, I just need to. I need the reggae.

[Monet X Change]

Those boxes behind you are still tripping me out. I just. I just can't. Can you please not sit in front of these boxes? I can't.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm gonna. You'll. You know what you'll do is what will happen.

[Monet X Change]

You will manage. Can you sit in front of a reggae wall?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Listen, the finale of RuPaul's Drag Race all Star.

[Shannon Maldonado]

All.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All Stars.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. Wait, really quick. I know it's not rivalry. I went to the Laugh Factory last night for chocolate sundaes, and it was so good. There was so many brilliant comics. There was this guy. I forget his name, but France. France. And he did this whole bit about taking the bus in la, and it was slightly problematic, but bitch, I was howling. It was such a great show.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Somebody was like, bob, you should do chocolate sundaes. And I was like, you can't just roll up and decide.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Bob would be telling, like, before

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I got on Dragonflux, be like, you should do Drag Race. How do you think this works? You Ever have people tell you you should be on. Why are you on Broadway?

[Monet X Change]

You think I should walk?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, I would love to. I would love to do Chocolate Sunday. Are you kidding me?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, it was. I. I wanna. We should go if. If we're both in town on a Sunday again. But I'll be. I'll be here for a few Sundays. We should definitely go together.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If we're on a Sunday, we're going to church. That's where you need to go. That's your. Honestly, that's your first.

[Monet X Change]

That's why you bitchy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know what?

[Monet X Change]

I would say you should go, but you will not make it through the front door, you bitch. The crown of your head will start to sizzle as soon as you put up your foot in that damn church.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Lord, I lift your name on. He came from heaven to shine away. Wait, wait. All I'm saying is we need to go trade. Monay, how are you feeling going into the finale of All Stars 7?

[Monet X Change]

Going into the finale of All Stars 7? I have to tell you, my odds never felt better, because I'm like, I have the most stars. Bitches making money moves. I'm like, you coming in, Jada, you stay out. They got a bitch really on her bad bitch. Shit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I know you're the shift manager.

[Monet X Change]

You're the shift leader, and I am. I also. I know I'm a really good lip syncer. I know that I can take any of these bitches in the lip sync. I mean, Shea is the only person I'm nervous of because Shea has beaten me in the first one and the last lipstick of the season.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, Shay, just. Shay. Talking about Shay did this to you two times. Seem like a supernova. Pop it up.

[Monet X Change]

So wait, did she punch me twice or. She punched me five times. Twice, because you did. Shay did this to you five times. Okay, eight. So she punched me five times. Twice. Got it. I got 10 punches from Shea. Cool. A. The math works, but, yeah, so Shay's the only one I'm afraid of. I'm like, if I go head to head with Shay, I could probably lose. But I beat Trinity in a lip sync before, and I know I can beat Jinx in a lip sync. I'm like, jinx can't beat homie on shit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Were you ever like. Were you ever like, do you have any thought in your head for, like, what if I bought Trinity into the finale and she beats me? Was there even a moment where you were like, what if I did?

[Monet X Change]

I was like, there is a way. There is a World where I bring Trinity into this lip sync and then she beats me and then everyone say, oh, Trinity. Which fans are doing, because I beat her, and we'll talk about it later. But, oh, I guess Monet was the true winner of All Stars 4 because she beat Trinity in the slip sync. So I was like, oh, my God, what if I bring Trinity and she is the one that sends me home with no money? I would be mad.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That would be. Honestly, I would cry. I'm not gonna lie. I would cry like I cry. I mean, if I cry when I get really stressed out, you know.

[Monet X Change]

Good girl, Good girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We have so much to cover. I feel like we should probably just jump into the the looks. There's a lot of lip syncs and there's a lot of looks to cover this episode.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Let's start off with the judges. First of all, I know we're gonna get to RuPaul Carson looks. I love this suit. Do you remember when our friend Taylor a mutual of ours when he wore that black suit with all the little bugs dangling along on it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Taylor did that?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't remember, but I'm sure he did. Taylor's very fat. Taylor's legit. One of the most fashionable people I know.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. This is what Carson looks like to me. I think Carson is great, but RuPaul, I love this hair. This fucking Horton Hairza dress is beautiful. RuPaul looks fucking great. I love this. I want this dress. And with that tiny little waist and such a volume on the top and the bottom. And these have to be custom dyed or custom stained feathers. Or maybe they come like that, but that's. The feathers are really cool.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, it's giving the snorlax is going to come around the corner any moment and save RuPaul from being. When you think about it, girl, Dr. Seuss, his books were really political. Like, really political.

[Monet X Change]

Bob, he had a bunch of racist ones that were banned. Did you know this Dr. Seuss has a whole catalog of racist ass books? Dr. Seuss had a fucking agenda, honey.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I know. Well, he was liberal in some spots. He was very anti Asian in a lot of other spots because he was popular during WW World War.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, dude.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And obviously there was a lot of AAPI hate during World War II because we were battling Japan.

[Monet X Change]

And I don't know how true this is, but I remember seeing not on TikTok, like an article on somewhere about how it was supposed to be Horton. Not it was supposed to be, but it's called Horton Hears a who. But it's supposed to be Horton Hears a Jew. And like. Like that whole thing, like, he's trying to like, girl, that can't be. I don't know how true it is. That's what I read. I'm like. But with all things Considered, I'm like, that doesn't sound too far from what the truth might be.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The reason why I think it might not be is cause. I don't know. Let me just say right now, I do not know what Dr. Seuss's dreams were or his ambitions were, his plans were, but I think that his AAPI hate stuff was coming from the hate for Japanese people because they were enemies of ours during the war, and he was on the sides of the people who were fighting to help Jewish people, the Allies. He was not pro Germany either. He had. So anyway, long story short is, I was just thinking to myself, he had a lot of really, like. Like, the Snorlax was like an environmental piece. And then he did, like, slavery pieces. He did some weird stuff. Like, it was like. But like, anyway, very political. Long story short, RuPaul looks like a Dr. Seuss character.

[Monet X Change]

And we. We were. We were about to go down another avenue. Bitch. We were about to start a rivalry. Girl.

[Shannon Maldonado]

Girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And Michelle. Okay, part of me loves that she. Because there was a point where Michelle's drag was out of control. Like, girl, what are you? And it is now very subdued. But that being said, like, pretty much, usually from the. From the neck down, her outfits are pretty plain. But neck up, Michelle is living up to that last name. She is giving visage. She is giving the only she. Michelle has aged beautifully. Beautifully.

[Monet X Change]

Also, I want to say, did you hear a slight little tangent? Did you hear what's happening on Drag Race UK?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

RuPaul's gone and Michelle stepped in.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Do you think this is some foreshadowing to what might happen in other. Maybe America for All stars or something?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

RuPaul's a little long in the tooth. Well, I told y' all this. I said on this podcast, I announced that I think that Raven is being groomed to be the next one of the hosts or on the judges panel of RuPaul's Drag Race. And I believe it.

[Monet X Change]

And you said host. You said host.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, well, let me amend my fucking statement, bitch.

[Monet X Change]

But okay, I'm just keeping you truthful and honest.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What you said, bitch. Worry about what you said. Worry about what you said. How about that? But now she is. She sat on that judges panel. The only other drag queen I've seen on the judges panel was Candace Kane.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. Candace Kane was season six, I believe so. Season six, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Really? Yeah, to my knowledge.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, on a season with RuPaul, like meeting UK or Merica.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Yeah. I guess Candace is the only one who's been there. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So it's giving RuPaul School for Girls, honey.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. Imagine Raven becomes one of the new judges on. I mean, to be honest, I would really appreciate that and respect that. Raven does great drag. Raven has been doing drag for two decades. Raven is great in the arp. I think Raven would be a great new addition to the judges panel. And I like having. Imagine if there's no drag queens on the judging panel. Like in some of the franchise. In some countries, there are no drag queens. I'm like, y' all non drag doing niggas gonna critique me on my makeup and my heels and fuck out of here. You need a drag queen on the panel.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They did to us on our seasons. No, but there was people sitting there on the paper being like, I don't like your blip, blip, blip, blip.

[Monet X Change]

What I mean, but like, no, at least RuPaul is there. Like, you have to have a drag queen on the panel. You have to.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I look really handsome today. You want to give me a compliment?

[Monet X Change]

I love that you're here today, Monet.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Say something nice about me.

[Monet X Change]

Affirm me. I affirm you all the time. I will affirm you when I will.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you affirm me right now?

[Monet X Change]

You don't tell me when to affirm you. I'll affirm you when I want to affirm you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay. I said will you. I said. I didn't say do. I said will you.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, so say ask me. Monica, can you affirm me right now?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm not begging you. Let's go into these looks. So the category is eleganza extravaganza. And it's like best drag. They used to say best drag, but then Paul started saying eleganza extravaganza.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Are you one of those people who puts eleganza when you want to make something like, extra?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No,

[Monet X Change]

I'm not. I think you know that. Jada Essence Hall Jaida looks beaut. I mean, Jada's face, she has a face that does not quit. And this gown is Bob and I both know this beads are expensive as hell and they're heavy. So I know this Jess cost this bitch a lot of money. And her Jada is maybe 17 pounds. And so just the fact that she. The fact that she's Able to walk down the Runway and not collapse under the weight of this beautiful, expensive garment. That's also commendable. I think Jada looks great. She looks beautiful.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, she looks really stunning. She looks like lady. She believe here, actually.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, she does.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She does nothing about fringe dresses. Fringe dresses, y', all, they do not travel well. Like, if you. Because the thing is, if one of the beads comes off, they all come off. Like if the bottom. The bottom be not.

[Monet X Change]

Not all.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, on. On that particular string.

[Monet X Change]

That. Yeah, let me be clear that not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not one be. They all just hit the ground. But when you pull that string, all the beads on that string fall off, but the string is still there. So beaded fringe. Fringe dresses do not travel well.

[Monet X Change]

You don't get a lot of wrap it in, like, tissue paper. You have to be like, very careful how you pack it. It's like a lot.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But you also can't even, like, even when you put on, you can't just grab it and pull like you would a normal dress because you're grabbing the fringe. You have to really handle it very delicately. When I was on tour with Work the World, last time I did it, Asia o' Hara had this yellow fringe, like Tweety Bird. It was. It looked so expensive. Anyway. She looks stunning. This look. I can't even imagine how much this dress costs.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, it's a lot of. I think this is also made by Joshua Aponte, who is a fabulous designer. He's made a lot of stuff for Jada. I can hear myself.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So let's go into Ra'. Jah. So Ra' Jah is like a bug, right? Bugs.

[Monet X Change]

I think this and her. So this dress and the one she wore for the light up. I believe the same designer made both of them. Yes. And so she's supposed to be insect. She's like some alien insect creature.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So the rumors about Ra' Jah having dressed that she was not allowed to keep. Ra' Jah went on the record and explained what the truth was. You never heard this rumor?

[Monet X Change]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, Ra' Jah paid so much money for her dress, she wasn't even allowed to keep it. What happened is the person who made these dresses is like some massive designer. And they have an arc, like a. Like a climate controlled archive chamber where they keep their most expensive garments. And Raja's like, what am I going to do? Throw it in my, like in my, like in my studio apartment in Koreatown and put it. Or my apartment and put it underneath mountains of drag. It's very expensive stuff. So she's like, what I do is I have the designer hold it for me in his space, and if I ever need it, he'll give it to me. But you and I both know sometimes we end up with very expensive garments in some really ridiculous, shitty conditions. Yeah. Violet told me that for a long time. I don't know if it still is, but, like, her. Her infamous dress was just, like, in a corner somewhere.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, imagine that dress just in a corner somewhere.

[Monet X Change]

Fucking is the mothballs and shit on it. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So I think it's actually really fierce. And she looks stunning. These the shoes. What is up?

[Monet X Change]

Raja has great. Raja. Vivian had the best shoes this season all season long.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And Raja has monster Giuseppe feet. Raja got some concrete slappers. Raja.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Raja and I are the same size.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Raja has some gorilla grippers. So I don't know. So it is hard to get custom shoes or nice shoes when you have, you know, when you walk around with some Donkey Kongs.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Yeah. Raja looks great. Up next, the Vivian, the band. The Vivian is wearing, I believe this is Jeffrey Kelly at work.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not American designers. Not her. Turning her back on her UK design.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God, you're so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God. Viv canceled. Viv found Americans.

[Monet X Change]

This is Joshua Ponte. I think this is classic. This is very simple.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I wish it was the Jeffrey Kelly. It's Jeffrey or Joshua Ponte.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, sorry. Jeffrey Kelly. Yeah. I think the dress is beautiful. I wish the nude part in the middle was more her color nude, but maybe. But I think the idea is it's supposed to be black mesh on top of her skin, which would make it darker.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's what I gathered.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Yeah. But I think this is classic. It's very pretty. I mean, you can't go wrong with ostrich feathers. Ostrich feathers are always making it look expensive.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I like this. I'm thinking hard about it. I like it. I actually really like it. I think she looks really beautiful. She looks stunning. I think she looks.

[Monet X Change]

She looks stunning, darling.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Absolutely smashing. Honestly, who's gonna mess up on this? You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. I wanna. I wish I could. I wanna start wearing wigs like this again. I miss Not. Okay, I wanna start. I wanna get some, like, one or two styles again that are. That, like, Jada posted a video of her performing Beyonce's Virgo, the Virgo song. And this, like, beautiful brown hair like this. And it was. I was like, I miss synthetic big volume wigs like that. I miss that in my life.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What? I don't know why that's so funny to me because I just remember you being in, like, these flat, human hair wigs, being like this.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I love that, too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But no, you know, you be like, only this. I never. Monet was like, I also. Monet, you do this thing, and you will say you won't, but you do this thing where you say, I only do this. And then I ask you only. And then you'll say, no. What I mean is, I mostly. And then I'll say most of the. You'll say, you know what I mean is, like, right now, like, the infamous conversation. I don't know y'. All. I don't remember this. This is a long time ago when Monet, infamously, was in my basement. She said she only eats organic food. And then by the time we broke it down when it was like. What I'm saying is, sometimes I order organic foods.

[Monet X Change]

Because, Bob. Because when you. You know what I mean? Okay, let me say. You know what I mean.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't. This is new.

[Monet X Change]

Listen, listen, listen. Anyone, but any. Everyone else who listens to the episode in the comments, they were like, oh, we get what Monet was saying when I say, you know what I ate? You know that we go out to eat Jacob's pickle, all that stuff. So obviously, I don't only eat that. But I'm saying yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was wondering why you were saying, I only eat organic. I was so confused. Like, that's. In my experience. That's not a saying people say when they say, I only do this. But what they mean is, I do it sometimes. So in my experience, that's not something that I've ever done where I'm like, I only do this. And I kept being like, only. And you were like, only. And then when I press you, you were like, well, yeah, I did that. Anyway, let's go on to Yvie Oddly, who is a cake. This thing is on a wheel. There are casters on this. This is a wild look.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Evie is a cake. Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake, cake. Yeah. She put Yvie. It reminds me of one of those screaming queens. You ever seen Alex and screaming queens? How to do those? The working tables, the walking table. That's what it looks like to me. And she. I think Yvie made this herself with her. With her drag fam. Like, stoned it and everything.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, it's really beautiful. It's very. It's very Yvie Oddly, which I absolutely love.

[Monet X Change]

And the hair was like a epoxy thing, like that epoxy spray thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, she looks Amazing. I love this look. I think this is just great. I love it.

[Monet X Change]

Mm. She looks great.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's go on a jinx Monsoon.

[Monet X Change]

Jinx Monsoon.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think she's Joan of Arc. Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

No, no, she's like a. She's like a. Like a. Like a larping, like, fairy witch slayer person.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Are you sure she's not Joan of Arc?

[Monet X Change]

I'm pretty sure Joan of Arc was. I don't think she was Joan of Arc.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What are you about to say Joan of Arc as well? What are you about to say

[Monet X Change]

Joan of Arc? No, she's doing like something like Daenery, like Game of Thrones type of thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, well, I just assumed because she's a lady in armor that she's shown of arc. Maybe that's just me generalizing all the

[Monet X Change]

women who wear armor.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Did Jinx not post her looks?

[Monet X Change]

She did post this. I'm pretty sure she did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm looking for it. Did she take it down?

[Shannon Maldonado]

Mm.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Jeans has such an interesting media. Social media presence. Wait, when did. Oh, my God. How long ago did this show end?

[Monet X Change]

Bitch? This summer. It's fully November.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This look was very special to me. Inspired by my lifelong love of magic and powerful way. Armor was handcrafted and lovingly designed by this person, J. Von Stratton, with a custom sword prop made by this person who also made my gorgeous emerald crown. The hair was inspired by Miranda Richardson's Queen Mab in the miniseries Merlin. Labor of love across the board. I have very talented, kind friends. Oh, it looks like Jonah works to me. I don't love it.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I mean, I think maybe because Jinx did a lot of that. Very. She did a lot of gowns and stuff in, like, in a lot of her silhouettes. She tried. I mean, maybe she tried to really go left on this and do something like really, you know, different. And I think it's creative. I don't know. For finale Eleganza, like, if she would have did like a really fierce, like, witch. Cause obviously this is Jinx's death jinxing thing. She did some really dope ass witch look like a black something. I don't know, maybe that would have been. This feels a little.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know.

[Monet X Change]

I don't know. I don't hate it. I just think she could have maybe done something a little more fiercer when.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's her name? Kathy And Jimmy, back in, like the 90s, was doing an interview about Hocus Pocus and she was like, you know, honestly, I didn't want to do anything offensive with being A witch in this movie because she goes, I don't actually know any witches personally, but I know there are witches out there in the world, and I don't want to be offensive. And I was like, wow. She was really. Kathy and Jimmy has been ahead of her time for a very long time. Like, I really recommend you all look up Kathy and Jimmy. She is. She is a very. Like, she has been ahead of her time for a very long time.

[Monet X Change]

I was the head of my time in middle school.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, we know you and your glory holes. We know about your head. Your middle school head.

[Monet X Change]

That was high school Gloria's or high school. Middle school with Edna Roy Hills.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Middle school was just straight up. Face the. Face the dick. Real time. Let's go on to Monet X Change.

[Monet X Change]

I look at this picture of myself, I'm like, bitch, my legs look so thick.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think I'm padded here either. Or maybe I am.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know. Only you have the answer to that question.

[Monet X Change]

I don't know. I look very stout in this. Like, I don't look tall.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is this the first time you ever notice that you have thick legs?

[Monet X Change]

No, but in this picture, particularly, I'm like, I just don't look, like, tall. Also, I think it's a pose I'm trying to do, too. My left leg is shrinking, you know,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I guess I think you look nice. I think your body looks really nice here. And I don't think you look short or anything, but maybe that's because I have context and I know you. So in my mind, I'm like, I actually saw a video of Jacob, and I was like, jacob looks so tall in this video. Like, he looks very tall. I'll show you the video. I happen to have it already put on my phone because I was looking at it. Does it take a look tall in this video?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I can't really tell. I need to maybe look at it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it's because his head is above the TV and I'm filming from. Anyway, whatever. I think you look really nice. I love this outfit. I love this big bow on the back. I love when you're bald as well. Only thing is that sometimes your jewelry on your nose, the shadow. You made it like you had a mustache.

[Monet X Change]

Very. Like one of those, like, Italian skinny mustaches.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, like Raj's little John Waters mustache that almost got her eliminated from skin. But other than that little mustache thing, this looks so good.

[Monet X Change]

Thank you. This was made by Chris Habana, made the bodysuit and the metal pieces and Domino made. Dominic Couture made the bow and the purple stuff.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How did you feel about this look?

[Monet X Change]

I really loved it. I felt very, very, like, rich. I felt very, very fierce. I felt very powerful. I wanted to do, like, my own interpretation of neo African futurism stuff like what maybe someone would be wearing in 20 years to the Emmys. I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Giving apricant

[Shannon Maldonado]

Africa.

[Monet X Change]

I had a wig that I was gonna wear with it, but the wig didn't work, so I just. I just ended up going bald.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Has Anyone ever said AfricaDabra?

[Monet X Change]

AfricaDabra. Yeah. Maybe

[Bob the Drag Queen]

not a black magician named Africadabra. Okay. A black drag queen who's a magician. Africa Debra.

[Monet X Change]

Afra Kadebra. I like that. Let's go on. Speaking of Africadabra, let's go on to Shea Coulee, who's wearing Christopher John Rogers. Christopher John Rogers made this. This is from one of his Runway collections.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She really brought in some actual pieces. I mean, my big ass could literally never.

[Monet X Change]

Right. I said I could never fit into this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If Lane Bryant does a Runway show, I can wear some of their stuff. Otherwise, Actually, Shay.

[Shannon Maldonado]

Cooler.

[Monet X Change]

Shay and I are not far off in measurements. So, Meg, maybe I could fit this. I mean, with extreme corseting. No titties. Maybe the ass and hips area might be a problem, but okay, if I extremely corset.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't wear titties. I shave my thighs off. I cut my ass off. You are wild.

[Monet X Change]

This is absolutely.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is a beautiful dress. It's absolutely. I mean. But she's also not wearing titties. She's not wearing. I don't think she's not wearing.

[Monet X Change]

That's what I was saying. That's what I was saying. I wouldn't wear titties, bitch. The silhouette on this is very cool.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet, I'm not coming for you. But you're the one chopping off body parts to get in the dress. I'm not coming for you.

[Monet X Change]

And she's wearing. I think Sherry's wearing my kitty cat wig. Cause she's like, monet, do you have. Do you happen to have a kitty cat? I was like, of course I do, bitch. Bitch. I went out, I pulled out eight colors. I was like, which color you want? Blonde, brown, red, black? It was Just had all that color.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I want to get to the feeling. Yeah, let's move on. Shea looks stunning. I love this look. I love. Shay is pretty much consistently beautiful.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I agree with this. She's a very. Shay's a very pretty lady.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Trinity, the tuck. This isn't my favorite look of hers throughout the season.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, here's what happened with this. All right? So she was going to. The designer was supposed to make her dress. It ended up arriving not what she wanted. So Trinity had to make this. She had, like. She had this. She had. She made this outfit there. Trinity made this finale. This. Her finale eleganza at Drag Race. I think she may have had that bodysuit, but she made the pink part.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, well.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, and a harness.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I want to try to maybe swap this look with something else and wear one of my other dresses for the finale because Trinity has some really sickening drag this season. Just some insane drag this season, you know?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How did you make it work?

[Monet X Change]

I like. I think that you lose a lot of how fierce it is, because that cat. The whole bodysuit she's wearing is a fully stoned net fabric. So when she came out, it looks like. She looks. She looked like Emma Frost. It looked like her entire body is, like, glistening. But so in pictures.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, I wish you didn't cover it up then.

[Monet X Change]

Well, you see her whole legs and her chest.

[Shannon Maldonado]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know what? Yeah, sure.

[Monet X Change]

So I think it looked better in person than it does in pictures.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So going into the. She done already done had hers as lip syncs. So when we did the Pit Stop, what happened was we were watching, and we didn't actually see the winner if she already had hers, nor did we see the last lip sync. I'm gonna reiterate that we did not see the winner of she didn't already had hers, and we. I actually did not see. So you go ahead and watch my pissed out with Thorgy. Me and Thorgy are making up everything after the.

[Monet X Change]

That is a gag. Yeah, that is a gag.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So. And I've. And I've done a few seasons of the Pit Stop, and I've. I've never not had that. Like, that was the most I've ever not seen and had to make up and, like, make stuff up. Are we gonna rate the looks as well as the performances? Should we do a quick overview of the looks?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah. I don't think the looks are, like, the main thing, but we can talk about them. Why not?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. I don't really care much for the Vivian's look, but I love what Yvie's wearing. I love this look on Yvie. This kind of reminds me of also a little bit of the hair that she wore in her promo for her season.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. It may be the same or something very similar.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, it's not the same.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. Yeah, I think that, listen, when you get towards the end of Drag Race, you were just pulling whatever you have left that makes sense. I think maybe Vivs would have made sense a little more if the garter thing, the garter pants all went into one shoe. If she bought a booty and covered the booty in that fabric, too, then it will look more cohesive. But we talked about this before the podcast. When it has that harsh line at the ankle, it's something. It really takes you out of the fantasy. Right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. We also know this to Drag queens will pick their nails, their hair, custom lashes, new makeup, spend thousands of dollars on an outfit, get a photographer, do a photo shoot, have a videographer. And they will not buy news. They will just grab a shoe at the last possible second. And I've been guilty of this, too. In fact, the only time I. The only time I pretty much consistently have sho shoes that, like, are specific to my outfit, it's on. We're here. And that's because they are aware of that.

[Monet X Change]

And we.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We are. We're trying to get ahead of it. But bitch, I spend so much time getting out again, just. It just grab a shoe.

[Monet X Change]

I used to be that way. But over the past, like, three years, I would say I. I think about this shoe as well, because I am such it. It always takes me out the fantasy. So as y' all see this. Oh, no. This is like half of my shoe collection. Bob knows I have, like, this in storage, plus more in storage. So I been thinking about the shoe a lot for the past three years.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I am that girl. Also, at a gig, you don't want to wear new shoes. New shoes.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. Not new shoes at a gig. If I'm going to a gig where I'm going to be performing in. Well, lately, since Bob and I doing stand up of Bob and I since. Since I'm doing standup, Bob and stand up, too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't.

[Monet X Change]

I'm not performing. I'm not. I'm not worried about scraping my shoes or fucking up new shoes. I would wear, like, some of these nicer ones at the standup. But if it's like at a club where I'm going to be stepping in piss, somebody going to drop a drink on me in the bathroom. You don't go peeing drag in the bathroom.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No.

[Monet X Change]

You don't ever be at. When you used to do bars, you never be at the bar and be like, bitch, I have to pee.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, I would rarely would I pee in drag, I usually don't. I have a thing. People know me. I drink very little liquids in drag because I have to pee all the time. So I. Once I'm starting to get dragged, I go down to like one can of Red Bull and that is all the liquid I ingest because I have to pee all the time. And then usually by the time I have to pee, I'm out of drag.

[Monet X Change]

Usually. Oh no, I have to pee. So you're stepping at a bar with, with shit. But you know, so I don't wear like brand new shoes at a gig that are going to get messed up because I have big feet and it takes a lot to soar shoes for myself. So I'm very cautious of that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I also usually don't. But I don't wear the. I don't wear the uncomfortable shoe at the drag at the, at the standup gigs because I'm on a stage like for an hour. Like I'm in, I'm just standing for an hour. I'm jumping around. I'm like doing all this stuff. It is actually easier for me to wear an uncomfortable shoe for one drag number than it is to wear for an hour of stand up on stage. Way easier.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I be feeling myself. I'd be wearing nice sexy little open toe fantasy also. But Bob, you know, open toe shoes are so much more comfortable than closed toe shoes. Well, I see myself not always for me. Oh, I have wide feet. So anytime I'm in a closed pump like that bitch, my feet are. But in a sandal open toe, my feet can be fine. So I love wearing open toe shoes. And I don't like performing open toe shoes because, bitch, you are. Your feet will Naomi Smalls. They go over the shoe and clench to grip them shoes, girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hey, my feet are petite. There's a reason why the word feet rhymes with petite. My feet are like people.

[Monet X Change]

So that's for everyone.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

People often look at my feet and go, oh my God, your feet are shockingly small. People say that to me, like almost. People will hold up shoes and go, is this Jacob's shoe or your shoe? That happens to me all the time.

[Monet X Change]

If y' all believe that shit, then I want to RuPaul dragons.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, honestly, Bob, I didn't expect you to be this tall. But even more so, I did not expect your feet to be this skinny and tiny.

[Monet X Change]

Moving right along. So yvie oddly and the Viv, they spin the wheel and. Oh, no, we already know they matched each other. Oh, wait, really quick. Let's go back A little bit. So on the Runway, RuPaul has this really emotional moment with us on a Runway. Do you remember this? When RuPaul is like, I just so had to see. Had to see you all come on. And then that was. We were. It was very, very emotional. Because, again, you know this. It's at the end of the season, bitch, you have done. At this point. We've done 11 challenges. We've been here for six weeks. We are done. And it is just you. When just one little inkling of emotion comes in. Everyone, we were all on stage. Every single one of us was bawling on stage, like, crying.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That sounds very beautiful. It really does. I remember you talking about this moment after you got home. You were like, we all cried.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Because, I mean, and I said before, I love RuPaul so much. RuPaul has changed my life, and I am so grateful for everything that he's done. And just to see.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She's not gonna give you any more chance. You don't have to suck up anymore. She's not gonna let you back on.

[Monet X Change]

Say how you really feel.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Say what you say about her when

[Monet X Change]

we're not recording, just to see how much RuPaul feels that, too. Because a lot of the times you're doing the show and you're like, ah, you know, like, you're in your feelings or whatever. But, you know, RuPaul is great. And to see him cry and be so vulnerable and open with us, it really made us feel really good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Cause sometimes we get to choose our. As gay people, we get to choose our families. That's one of my favorite moments. As gay people, we get to choose our families.

[Monet X Change]

No, no, no, no. Because you and Q, you. You found a way out. I'm like, yes. I love it. I love it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I love it. It's really beautiful. Once they end up. Once we find out that Viv and yvie are lip syncing, my first thought is, well, I do think that yvie's gonna win. But then again, Viv did beat yvie once this season already. But it was also an impersonation. But anyway, that's not the point. But then once I heard it was salt and pepper, push it, I was like, yvie, baby, let me stamp your passport so you can get back to customs. Because, honey, as soon as I heard it was somewhere, I was like, can we. Can we bring in customs to send this bitch back to Buckingham?

[Monet X Change]

I remember when I. And I, you know, Viv was, you know, when we found out what the songs were like, Viv, like, what the songs could be. Viv was, like, learning, because for your group, right? So she already done her has this. They had the four, three songs that they could possibly get, and we had the three songs that we could possibly get. So you could plan your number, what you wanted to do in case you got whatever. And Viv was like, gayle, I need you to tell me what kind of moves I could do to the song, Gayle. And I was like, girl, you gotta

[Bob the Drag Queen]

do the Running Man.

[Monet X Change]

Just think of, like, you Gotta think of 90s dance moves. I was trying to teach Viv some 90s dance moves, but, you know, Evie,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

you set the Viv up. She did her TikTok dance move.

[Monet X Change]

She did. She did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I didn't tell her to do that.

[Monet X Change]

I did not say do that TikTok shit. I would tell her to do the 90s dance like the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So no one's shocked. Eviali won, and she moves on to one step closer to becoming the queen if she didn't already had hers. Up next, we have Raja, and Vivian

[Monet X Change]

gets to say her. She gets her scepter, and she gets to say her.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I love that everyone got scepters, and that was so amazing.

[Monet X Change]

You mean almost everyone.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, you got one of the end.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't get to say shit. Everybody got to. Well, you know, I did not get to say anything.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet, now is the time. I think at the end of the podcast, you can say.

[Shannon Maldonado]

You can.

[Monet X Change]

You should say, no, no, they did me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let me.

[Monet X Change]

When I tell you I got. When I say I got done so dated this finale. They did not show me getting my scepter. Oh, no. I mean, I think they show me getting my scepter, but they do not show me saying shit. They were like, I get my scepter. Cut. Jinx Monsoon. Congratulations. I was like, anyway, moving on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Did you say anything? And they cut it out.

[Monet X Change]

I. Yeah, I think I got to say. I'm pretty sure I got to say something.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Jinx Monsoon. Congratulations. Can you see my scream on it?

[Monet X Change]

Yes, I can see your fucking scream. Yeah. Evie wins, and she moves on. And next we have Raja versus Jada Essence hall singing. Let's hear it for the boy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, I. I really love Raja's look. I love this look.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Raja looks really cool.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Giving 2008, ladies. It's giving this 2008, like, pop princess vibe.

[Monet X Change]

Raja's that entire jacket again. You can't tell on screen in pictures, but that entire jacket was stoned. I don't know if you remember. She stole that jacket. She's like, oh, yeah, girl. I just took some mushrooms, and I just stoned the shit out of it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, she was great. And Jada looks like a sexy fucking cheerleader.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Jada looks really good. I. In my humble opinion, I thought Jada won.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I thought Raja won. I also wanted to. If you really want to hear let's Hear it for the Boy. I'm just gonna let you know. I know I'm a theater queen, but the Broadway version, baby, when I tell you the Broadway original cast version of the Theater for the Boy is the superior, superior rendition of this song. If you're a drag queen listening this song, it needs to be the Broadway rendition of let's Hear it for the Boy. But I thought that Raja did a better job, to be honest. I don't think that she crushed Jada. I don't think Jada got, like, massacred or anything.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah. I thought. I thought Raja. I mean, I thought Jada won, but I could see a case for either or. But for me, I saw Jada for.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's go on to Raja versus Evie for the finale smackdown of Shirnara and had hers. They're doing Sisters. They're Doing It For Themselves by the Eurythmics and Aretha Franklin. I absolutely love this song. This is a.

[Monet X Change]

It's a great.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is truly a drag. Like a pillar in drag performance, this song. When two drag queens, they have to do a thing. We're both going to wear the same color. I'll be Aretha, you'll be Annie Lennox. Let's do it. You know?

[Monet X Change]

Mm.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I think both their looks are fine here. I mean, I really like Roger's look. Evie's look is fine. And I thought that Evie won this lip sync down.

[Monet X Change]

Evie tore it up. She had that, like. Because, you know, early in the first challenge of the season, remember, she wore the wig that she reveals to. Her wig fell off of her head. I don't think maybe y' all saw that in the end. I don't remember. But. But that happened the first challenge, the one where we did the ver. The song, did the verses. Evie's wig fell off of her head the first. In the first take. So I think we just saw that. So I think she was doing a callback to herself, but also a dope reveal. Looking like your wig fell off, and you just have your stocking cap on, and she just pulls a stocking, and she has another wig under that. I thought throughout the entire number, I thought Evie crushed it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. That wig reveal was really bananas. And I was screaming. I mean, it's really hard to figure out a new way to do a wig reveal in the 20th or 21st season of RuPaul's Drag Race. It is practically impossible to figure out. It's just literally. I think this was literally the 20th season of RuPaul's Drag Race America.

[Monet X Change]

21st, 14 regular.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We're late in the game. Put it this way. And she got me, like, I was like. I felt so bad when I thought her wig was fine. I was like, oh, my God, her wig is sliding. Oh, my God, her wig fell off. And then when she pulled off the wig, I was like, honestly, she just became the queen if she already had hers. That being said, is this, like, the queen of all queens? Is this an amalgamation of all your work? Is this, like a. Is this. Is this all your work throughout the season, or is it just the lip sync?

[Monet X Change]

I think that for any lip sync for the crown, it should just be the lip sync, because then. Because then if you're, like, looking at the whole season, then what is the point of doing lip sync for the crown? Especially this season, particularly RuPaul, is like, your goal is to get to the. You are lip syncing for the crown. If you are doing the lip sync to get the crown, if it. If you. If you already know who you wanted to win by their job in the season, then this should just be, like, a Try to get some. Some more money. Let's try to lip sync for some more money. Not lip syncing for the crown.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't agree with that. I think it should be, like, in the challenges of an All Star season where you're lip syncing for the win, like, there's a lip sync and the performance that both go toward whether or not you win this week. So, like, if someone. If someone had, like, a really brilliant Snatch Game, but they weren't great at the lip sync, I think it should be the performance and, like, the performance and the challenge and the lip sync, but I don't fucking make the rules. So that's just my opinion. Like, I do think that. I do think that throughout the season, Raja had a stronger body of work than Evie did, but I do think in this lip sync, Evie did a much better job.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I mean. I mean, I think they're listening for the crown. I think the lips, the lip sync is the thing that matters at this point. Like, your performance throughout the season got you to this point. Your performances through the season got you this time to win stars to get to this point. Now you're here, you're lip syncing for the crown or you're lip syncing for. She already had hers. Your package throughout the season is what gets you here. Now, from here on, you're lip syncing to get the thing that you want. She already done had hers or the crown.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, you all comment below. Do you think it should be a combination of both, all things considered, or should it be season and then the smackdown separate? Let us know what you think below.

[Monet X Change]

Like. Like, for example, Sasha Velour, right? Shea bodied the entire season. So if you. If. But Sasha had had a. Had a great moment of lip sync. So that. Because at that, this is the first season that when RuPaul decides to do a lip sync for the crown. So it was like they. They competed to get to this point, but when you get to the final, for the final episode, now you're lip syncing to. This is what counts. This is the thing that counts for this moment.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But what I'm saying is what Sasha Velour did at the finale against Shea is literally one of the most iconic things in the history of Drag Race. All seasons, all franchises, every continent, literally one of the most iconic things. So that adds to this massive body of work that she had in my.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think so. I don't think so. Because then. Because then there's no. How does that trump the. A brilliant job of four challenge wins that Shaykuli did the whole season. So then. So. So all the sotos. So those nine, 10 weeks of Shay turn into competition. One rose petal reveal trumps all of that and erases all of that work for 10 weeks.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it depends on how impactful the rose petal thing was versus how impactful Shay's job on the season was. And obviously it's all based on someone's opinion, so everyone has different opinions and, you know, opinions are completely subjective. So. And in my opinion, that rose petal thing is a huge cultural moment for drag. It is like everyone was doing it. It was massive.

[Monet X Change]

Go ahead, Jacob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But Monet's lip sync also could have been that. What do you mean, could have been? Like, we didn't see. We signed a very edited version of that lip sync and we don't know. But, like, in general, like, the lip syncs are edited. So, yes, like Sasha's, it is an iconic moment, but there are also maybe iconic moments in lip syncs that were missed. Yeah, I'm not judging based on What I didn't see, I'm only. I'm only considering things I've seen. So for all I know, you know, Shea started flying, levitating in the air, and we didn't see it. I'm assuming not. I can only base it off of what I've seen on the show.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah. I mean, and I will say, Yvie has two stars. Ra'. Jah. So again, and even this all Star season, the stars, I mean, maybe they didn't peddle it, the audience, viewing audiences, but for every turn and every point in this, in the season, they were peddling this notion to us as stars. Wins don't matter. It's all about the stars. You know what I mean? So that's why we, as a castle see, we're so. We obsess about it so much because they were like. And every Michelle or Ru or Carson, when they would talk to, it was like, it's not about the wins, it's about getting stars. So they're peddling this notion. So if you use that logic, they're saying, Raj and Yvie, for all intents and purposes, they were equal. So Yvie trumping Ra' Jah so much in the final lip sync that would denote her as the winner by using their metric, their rubric for the season.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think they have the same number of stars. I don't think they have the same. I don't think the body of work they made, I don't think it was even. Their bodies of work, in my opinion, were not even. Even though they had the same amount of stars. Like, for example, this is not shady. But even though you had more stars than Jinx, do you think your body of work in the season was better than her body of work?

[Monet X Change]

I think that. I think that in. I think in the. In Snatch Game, Jinx shone brighter. But I think if you look at my work throughout the entire season, I was. Besides one episode, I was always high or winning or. You know what I mean? So whereas even in the design challenges where Jinx did pretty poorly. So I think if you average it out, we were about even. In my. In my honest opinion, I think that Jinx had some blowout out of the fucking water moments. As did I. You look at Jinx's. Jinx's Snatch Game, it is, in my opinion, one of the greatest Snatch Games that I have ever seen on drug. Probably the best. The best of anyone people at my talent show. I think my talent show is probably one of the best talent on Drag Race, period. So I think There were moments where Jinx would dip low, like in design challenges, or moments where I dip low, like in the improv one. I didn't. I wasn't as great, but out of 10, 11 challenges, I was high, safe. Nine of them or winning. So, you know,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

again, it. It is. It is completely subjective. And I. I just think that Raja

[Monet X Change]

had a better body work than Evie

[Bob the Drag Queen]

did throughout the season.

[Monet X Change]

I.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's just my opinion. I do. Again, I do think that Evie won this lip sync, but because I think of Raj's body of work that the season was. Was really significant and really just toward my liking, I have no problems with Raja winning this title.

[Monet X Change]

I don't have problems with her winning it. We're just talking. You know, I think, I think.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that Roger winning was the correct decision is what I'm saying. Do you think so?

[Monet X Change]

No, I think if you're gonna link for the crown, is you lip syncing for the crown. Your performance by the season got you to this point. Now your lip syncing is going to make you win or not, in my opinion.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Again, comment below and let us know what you think. Let's go on to Judah. Judah Monsoon vs Shea doing Judas by Lady Gaga. And I really love. I love both their looks. I don't love Shay's shoes, but everything else I love. I don't know. I can't see what shoes Jinx is wearing, but I'm assuming I don't like them because I normally don't.

[Monet X Change]

Is Jinx wearing the same hair from her? Wait. Oh, no, she's not. Yeah, she wears the same color, so

[Bob the Drag Queen]

her hair is often looks the same because she's always wearing the same, like, literally the exact same color hair.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Yeah. I like both of their looks. I think Shay's is more of a dancey costume, especially when she does a reveal. Although that, like black and white checker thing, I'm like, bitch, we. We see what's poppin.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, I don't think it's supposed to be a reveal, though. It's just. I don't think it's a reveal.

[Monet X Change]

I think it's not a reveal. I mean, technically it is reveal. You take it off to reveal to the thing underneath.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I don't think taking something off constitutes it being a reveal. I think reveal you have to be hiding like, you have to be hiding something. Like if you take off. If you take off your jacket, you're not revealing to your shirt. You're just taking off your jacket.

[Monet X Change]

I am. Speak for your got my nails.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Damn it's not. Not vivacious. Not. Not. Mother has arrived.

[Monet X Change]

Mother has arrived. They do Judas by Lady Gaga. And what do you think of this about this lip sync people?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

People were. A lot of people didn't like Jinx twirling. I did not mind. People were like, some people hate it. People hate when Jinx twirls. I really didn't mind the twirling. Is that weird?

[Monet X Change]

It's not weird, but, I mean, it's

[Bob the Drag Queen]

not weird, but they're like twirling people. People are like, mad, like, bitch, why are you twirling?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, and she, like, took her cape and she was, like, doing this thing. Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to think in the room, like, when we were all watching it there, it felt like. Cause when we're in the queen's gallery, we can't like, see it up front. You're just kind of judging from the side. But it looks like Shay was doing, like, the full choreography. Chinx was trying to. Was trying to swap this bitch off the stage with her cloak.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Shay was doing the choreography from the video, which I do. Like, I think sometimes the thing about choreography that makes it look really cool is when, like, several people are doing it together. You know what I mean? But I think they both did a really good job. I do think Shay maybe edge Jinx out just a little bit in the performance. People were saying, like, Shay ate her. I was like, I don't know that I saw it that way, but it was a popular sentiment that I saw online that Shay, like, pummeled Jinx into the ground.

[Monet X Change]

And so this is a case in point. Right? So using your thing, like, considering Shay's body of work and Jinx is over the season, like, so then why even have Shay lip sync against Jinx if Jinx was so dynamic in the season, like, what. The only thing Shay could do to trump that would be disappearing and vanishing and, like, to your point, levitating off the stage. So it's like, what is. If you're not lip syncing for the crown, if it's going by the whole thing, then what's the point of Shay even trying to lip sync against Jinx? You know what I mean?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I don't agree with that. I don't agree with all that you're saying. Like, what's the point of even coming? Like, what's the point of even. Like, that is just.

[Monet X Change]

But using your thing because you said.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because you don't know what Shay could do. Like, what if Shay does something that. That literally changes the Fabric of the show. What if Shay does a cultural reset? What if she does a moment that is being memed for years and years and years to come? What if Shea Cool A does that? Entertainment Weekly names one of the most iconic moments of reality TV of the year. That's what happened when shots of Lord did the flower petals.

[Monet X Change]

That is in that moment. Was it all of that? Am I, am I just.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was all those things. It had all those accolades I just named. It was literally listed in like several magazines. Like, it's like one of the most iconic reality TV moments of the past. So and so I think later on

[Monet X Change]

we've gotten there, but in like that

[Bob the Drag Queen]

year, Monique, I'm telling you, I was not only. I was also in, but I mean, yeah, the memeing of it years and years to come happen later on. But I think if you were in. I was in the building when it happened and it was insane. It was insane. It was one of those things where, like, you had to be there. I've never. The crowd was like, cheering all night. The. When they, when, when she did that, it was louder than when RuPaul came out. It was insane. People were literally, literally running around backstage screaming. I was sitting there waiting to come down to my thing, and Randy, one of the owners of World of Wonder, Rani Barbado, stood at me and said, what the fuck? And started screaming. And then he ran back and people were just going crazy. It was a massive moment. So what I'm saying is what if she would have done something like that? What if. So I don't believe in being like, well, you can't do nothing anyway, that's gonna make us want to like you. So don't even. Why don't even bother.

[Monet X Change]

Well, my point is saying what I was saying is that the reason why I think that the lip syncing for the Crown is like the thing of this moment. It's not taking into account everything in the season is because of moments like this. But I mean, who's to say? I mean, the only way we can find out is if we. You know what? Let me, let me text Ru. Let me tell. See if he's available real quick. Maybe he can. He'll come and tell us real quick. Hold on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We'll just wait till we get a response back. What did you think about the lip sync?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, it's not right now. I thought it was good. I do. I agree with you. I think that Shay edged Jinx out a little bit, like watching like, the overall thing of the number and. But I can see a justification for Jinx winning because the cloak thing and she, you know, she's committed to the song. She did her thing. I could see that. But I agree. I think Shay edged her out. Who you calling?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She didn't answer for you. I'll call. I'll ask her myself. Ru, do you have anything to say? I have one thing to say. Okay, well, what are you gonna. Okay, what are you gonna say? I mean, we're trying to get. We're trying to do this podcast. Can you please let us do our podcast? Please? You better work. All right, I'll work. I'll get back to work. She said we should get back to work.

[Monet X Change]

You are such a dumb ass.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Answered. Can we go on to.

[Shannon Maldonado]

What?

[Monet X Change]

What. What are you laughing at, Monet?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What is your friend wearing, Monet? And I don't want to hear any. I'm gonna start off by saying you're wearing. You're wearing an outfit from work the World. I love this outfit. Domino made this. You look so stunning. And then you give me this wig. Don't I have this wig now?

[Monet X Change]

You do have that wig. Where is it? Give my. Get my shit back.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, it's mine. You gave it to me.

[Monet X Change]

You don't even know where it is.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I do know where it is. It's in my wig room. Don't I have this? Yeah, we actually put it in the bargain bin at Bad Drag Queen. But what is your. What is your twinner wearing? What's going on, Monet? Can you make it make sense, please? I'm. I'm literally. Monet, I'm on my. I'm begging. What is this?

[Monet X Change]

You are really on some Blair. You are. This is you. Monet, I'm begging. Please tell me what. You are shaking this camera around, girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What is going on?

[Monet X Change]

I think Trinity is. She's wearing an outfit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know what. Monet, what do you think of the outfit? Come on, we're giving opinions. Mary.

[Monet X Change]

I think the shoulders are wild. It looks. It looks very vampirian. Like, she looks like she's like a really cool vampire. Not a cool. Like a really.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And the boots.

[Monet X Change]

I don't like the leggings. I think it'd be cute without the leggings. Maybe now, does she. She does a reveal to this and it becomes less cumbersome. But I think this reveal look before is a bit much. The cloak and the, like, the high collar vampire collar thing, it's a bit much.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Anyway. You all do so what by pink.

[Monet X Change]

And

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I feel like. Is it Just me. Or is like Trinity is constantly involved in very sexual lip syncs.

[Monet X Change]

Oh. So, yeah. So y' all didn't even see I was telling Bob about this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So what happened is we saw Monet. What do you think we saw a bit? Well, we didn't actually see it, but we knew what was happening.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, but they. They did not show it. So what I did, I go up behind her and I grab her by the hips and I like I'm thrusting her and I'm fucking her and I'm fucking her and I put out a cigarette and I smoke it and I flick it at the judges. It was very balding.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is a cigarette.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can you show cigarettes on tv? Sure. Of course.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think maybe you can. Oh, yeah, you can. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know. I don't know. I do think that you won this lip sync. There is a theme where yvie is constantly, like, getting her ass eaten or eating.

[Monet X Change]

Was it Jaden or Trinity? Trinity. No, you just said Evie. Trinity. It was when Jada was standing up and Trinity slid into her ass. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Lucky Trinity. Did I just say that out loud? Not lucky. Trinity. Must be nice. How did you feel about the slip sync?

[Monet X Change]

I thought it was a lot of fun. I've said this multiple times to you off camera on this. On this podcast. I really love Trinity after All Stars 4. I've really grown to. I've become very fond of Trinity and I enjoy working with her and doing this lip sync. It was. Yeah, it was for. To get to the next round. We also had fun doing it and Trinity, it was great. I had a good time. I felt. I felt really very good in the lip sync.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think you did a good job and I think that you won this lip sync for sure.

[Monet X Change]

Gracias.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's move on to monet x change vs Jinx monsoon doing Swish Swish by Katy Periana. Okay, this look. Am I correct? Did, did, did, did. This outfit gets designed by Bianca.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, jinx.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is. Yeah. Did I make. Am I making that up?

[Monet X Change]

No, you're right. You're. I think you're right. But look at this. That is. That is a 100% a Bianca outfit. That is a Bianca silhouette down right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I feel like Bianca designed this.

[Monet X Change]

She did, she did. I think

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Jinx.

[Monet X Change]

I know that. Ball headed scallywag.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. It says fun, fun story behind this look. Bianca. Dario sketched the design for this look and bequeathed it to me before filming. The lady high created this leopard ready for everything look based on that design. It is it is a very. It is a cube look. It does look like Jinx is dressed like Bianca.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, for sure. If Jinx would have had her up in a turban and it would have been Bianca.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, that would have been so much nicer.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, but then she looked like Jinx in Bianca, the real drag.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

True. You look stunning. I love. Is this Whitney? Is this black and white stripe?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, this is black and white stripe. Whitney Newman. I'm sorry, Piretta

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Perietta.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Why did it say Pieretta Perioda?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can I just say, once you've been doing Dragon long enough, you can look at stuff and be like Joshua Domino.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah, for sure.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Black and white strike. Like, you can literally. I mean, I didn't even. I was. I was looking. I was like. I was like, oh, black and white stripe. Like, it's. You can literally just look and be like, oh, yeah, I know who. I literally, from a mile away, I know who made that. So this was Swish Swish by Katy Perriana. And this

[Monet X Change]

I'm gonna say about the lipstick. So when they told us what the songs were. So this was. I think Trinity was telling Bob about this. I. The day that we're. The day before. Two days before, we were learning, like, we got these. We were in the. In the workroom, and I given Trinity an edible. So Trinity's like. She's like. She's, like stoned, right? She's, like, really high. And then. And then they give us this other stuff they say we're gonna be doing. Swish Swish by Katy Perry, blah, blah. So Trinity's in the corner with her headphones listening to the words. And then it's in the Nicki verse, and she's like, ran, ran, ran wan Nikki getting tan Mary, Mary, who's the favorite bitch on the land? Trinity goes, girl, did you hear what she said in that song? She's like, I'm not doing that. I cannot say that on tv.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Was it getting tanned or did she think Nicki was saying nigga or something?

[Monet X Change]

Them. They're the part. But they bleeped out the end part. They bleed out the N word part. But also the wait.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Damn, man. They keep getting tan May remember who's the first in all the land Damn, damn, man. This is a stand generous queen to kiss a fan Ask goodbye from the fast.

[Monet X Change]

I think I. I think. I mean, maybe. Maybe there was a part in the song. I think Nikki does say the N word. Maybe. But they did take it out. But she did not want to say Nikki getting Tan like, she just felt weird about saying that on camera. She's like. It just felt problematic to her. And you know what? For white folk, you question everything. Question everything.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, except black people. When you. Except the cop. Don't question black people. Just leave us alone. They're like, yeah, ok, you want to question everything. No, I don't think she says anything in this song. She says, to quote the queen, what she says is pink Ferragamo sliders on silly rap My life is movie I'm never offset Me and my amigos don't know swish but me and my shooters keep them like d We make them dance swish, switch are my head is obsessed. We can't both be doing you do the next part.

[Monet X Change]

All that fake love you showing couldn't really disguise you yo, yo, Ran wan Nikki getting tan and Mary, Mary who's of hers bitching on the land Damn, man. This bitch is the stand. What is it? Mwah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Mwah. The generous queen that kiss a fan ask goodbye I'mma be riding by and I'mma tell my and I'mma tell my bigs. Yeah, that's the guy. Was that. Is that what you said, Niggas?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, nig. It's supposed to be niggs.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, interesting.

[Monet X Change]

So, Nick. So I'm not saying this. Anyway, it was really funny, but. And then she realized, like, in her high mind, she was like. She was like, really over. And she, like, called a producer. She's like, I cannot say this on tv. But then it was fine. Like, the next.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So this lip sync is probably one of the most controversial lip syncs in the history on the season. Let's put that on the season.

[Shannon Maldonado]

And

[Bob the Drag Queen]

the fans were mad because there was moment we felt like there were a big chunk of time where we couldn't see what you were doing, what was going on. The song was edited down pretty significantly. Cut out all of. They cut out pretty much Nicki's entire rap. Like, the whole rap is gone. All we heard was like. Like, all we heard was like, ran, man, Nicki getting tan spray on the lamp. Swish, swish, bitch. And I was like, what?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

First of all, cutting Nicki out of a song. If you're a dj, listen to me right now. Any DJ in the. Who can hear my voice. Don't you ever in your life. In your life. Switch the song before Nikki comes on. Ever. You know how it feels when I'm. When I'm waiting for. I. I was in a gay bar. They played Monster. They cut it before Nikki came on yeah, that's what I.

[Monet X Change]

It was not a gay bar.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was a gay bar.

[Monet X Change]

No, bitch, that was a vey bar.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Honey, I was mad. What was your experience with this lip sync?

[Monet X Change]

How did you feel about it? This is to date my most proudest lip sync on Drag Race. And I've done three scenes. I've done a lot of lip syncs. I felt so good going to the lip sync. Like everything I planned to do in this number and the ones that happen organically, Bitch, I felt so fucking fierce. Like, I pulled out the lip sync at the top and it had Jinx. I pulled it out and revealed, like, I was saying her lip sync. It had Jinx's name on it. I pulled it to my makeup in it, and I threw it off stage and I made her kiss my ring. And then when I took. Okay, so Bob, you know this. In Drag Race lip syncs, when you do lip sync, like, a lot of the crew, they come and watch the lip sync because it's a big. You know, everyone loves the lip sync on the show for this one. This is the final Queen of Queens 1. When I tell you every single person who worked on Drag Race came and was watching in the room for the lipstick, I mean, it was like we were at Bitch. It's like we were on the Civil Rivalry tour and we had sold out New York City all over again. Everybody was there watching the lip sync. So, Bitch, we had, like a legit audience, right? And then, like, when I threw. Took the money off and I threw it in the air, the audience, the girl, you can. You can kind of hear in the girls microphones. Everyone was like, oh, I did that. And then during the Nikki part, doing the rapping part, I am not kidding. I told you this. Jinx literally stopped people asking this they wanted. She stopped and watched me doing the rap. She was like. And she continued.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I would say that. I'm not saying you're wrong. When I talk to Jinx, Jinx keeps being like. That is not. Jinx keeps being like. Jinx was when Jinx said that she stopped and looked at you during the. The spoken word. That's what Jinx.

[Monet X Change]

This is according to Jinx, then they can ask. I mean, the only way is to get one of these girls on here who were there watching it and ask. Jinx absolutely stopped. And then. Yeah, and then I did that little Vogue, that little catwalk at the end. I felt really great. I felt really great. Like, after we finished the lip sync, everyone was clapping and Jinx and I hugged and she goes to me, congratulations, girl. You did it. She said, and maybe you can get jinx on the podcast. She was like. She said, congratulations, Monet. Really, really cool.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Don't ever mention having any girls I know on this podcast to miss. First of all, keep your mouth shut. Don't bleep that. Bleep that whole section.

[Monet X Change]

We hugged each other. And she goes, congratulations, girl. You really did that. Oh, she didn't say you did that. Something to that effect. I was like, you are the queen

[Bob the Drag Queen]

of all queens, and if I win, I will abdicate the crown to you.

[Monet X Change]

I was like, no, congratulations to you. You were amazing as well. And then that was for the last moments.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, you did a really good job. I do think that you won that lip sync. And you did a really, really good job. And you look stunning doing it.

[Monet X Change]

I really like this outfit. I had Whitney made this outfit for me again for the All Stars 7 premiere.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why do you have another one?

[Monet X Change]

Not the same one. I got in, like, a cow print.

[Shannon Maldonado]

Oh.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was like, what? Why would you do that? You know, Taji gets two of his. All of his outfits made, so you

[Monet X Change]

can save one like, it's mint condition. The other one he wears.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Smart. But also, sometimes it's hard getting one outfit from a designer.

[Monet X Change]

I'm about to say. I'm about to say bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What?

[Monet X Change]

Imagine if we try to get two of our outfits from tour girls.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Sometimes getting one outfit is. You are doing the Lord's work to get a designer to make one outfit. Anyways, so jinkx Monsoon wins the season and she is crowned the Queen of all queens.

[Monet X Change]

Queen of all queens.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And ra' Jah is crowned the first and the only queen of. She done already in the hat? We don't know.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. For right now only. There may be more. Who knows?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. And this was a really great season of Drag Race. How did you feel about it?

[Monet X Change]

I felt really proud of what I did this season. I felt really great about my challenges. I was able to do opera on Drag Race, and millions of people see it. And because of that, you know, some really fun stuff is coming my way. Cause of some classical stuff. But I'm just proud of my overall package. I think I looked great. I think I was. I thought I did a great job this season. I'm immensely proud of myself and what I did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I agree. You did a great job. This is. You did a great job. This was a great season. I really enjoyed watching this season. I had a blast.

[Monet X Change]

How does it stack in All Stars for you?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm gonna give this the. There are seven All Stars. This is the. This is number two.

[Monet X Change]

All Stars two is still one.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All Stars two is still just such a great. That was so many twists and turns during that season. It was like. Because All Stars 1 is at the end. All Stars 1 is number seven, right?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, Mama, this is garbage. All Stars 2 was just. It was almost. It was almost like watching Drag Race when the queens don't care what the fans think. Again, it was almost like that.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. I bet you I felt it was like that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, it was wild. Like, girls were bribing people. I was like, what is going on?

[Monet X Change]

It was great. All Stars II was great.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Congratulations, Monet. Congratulations, girl. You really did it. No, congratulations. You did a really. A really good job. I hope you're proud.

[Monet X Change]

I really hope you are. I am. I am. Bob, I brew.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you have anything to say? I have one thing to say. Oh, okay. What do you want to say? Do you think that we should, like. Anything you want to say to. I can't think of it. Macaroni.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, honey. So we are. Bob, we finally finished All Stars 7.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We did.

[Monet X Change]

I think we should.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We should.

[Monet X Change]

So here's the thing. I think we can have a real conversation with the fans right now. Do we do some advisories, or do we start something else?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, well, I love you all so much. And I love you, Monae.

[Monet X Change]

And I love you, too, Bob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]
