Bob the Drag Queen
I'm Kiana, and I leveled up my business with Shopify.
Monet X Change
Once I figured out that Shopify was
Bob the Drag Queen
a thing, I never turned back. I can create a site with my eyes closed. Shopify thinks ahead of us, you know, and it thinks about the customer more than anything. Every day I'm thinking about some other new business, but Shopify is doing it
Monet X Change
to me because it's so easy to use.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's like, I can't stop. I'm addicted. To start your free trial@shopify.com. my name is Bob the Drag Queen.
Monet X Change
And I'm Monet X Change.
Bob the Drag Queen
And this is simply rivalry.
Monet X Change
Economy Plus.
Bob the Drag Queen
There's no difference between economy and Delta and comfort. On Delta, they would call it Comfort
Monet X Change
plus, but they say they'll fly you Economy or Economy plus, so.
Bob the Drag Queen
But Economy plus is Delta Comfort.
Monet X Change
So why. Why is it. Why is economy even in the equation? I don't understand. Like, that's. That's the main cabin, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, I guess it's for anyone who is like, I don't care. I don't know. Maybe. Maybe they're saying based on availability on the flight. Maybe they're saying maybe some flights won't have availability for Comfort Plus.
Monet X Change
Bitch, they don't pay this fucking first class.
Bob the Drag Queen
Are you waiting for us? Oh, I'm ready.
Narrator/Advertiser
Someone.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'd like to start recording and see what you say. Oh, get this off the table. It looks so unprofessional.
Monet X Change
I have my water.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is not a paper. We're not showing any label. Anyone who's not sponsoring this podcast.
Monet X Change
So why using a blue microphone? Why using your little yellow.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's. It's the label, Sean.
Monet X Change
It's Samsung sponsoring this podcast. You edited a whole video with it just now.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it in the video?
Monet X Change
It was in the video.
Bob the Drag Queen
First of all, I was using this phone.
Monet X Change
Oh, is Apple paying you? Is Pelican paying you for that case? All right, then.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's also Not a pelican.
Monet X Change
It is a pelican. It is not a pelican. I'm so tired.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, clearly. Why are you so tired, bitch?
Monet X Change
We just came from.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, we're clearly. We should tell. We're clearly. We're not in our. In. We're not in the house.
Monet X Change
On the last episode of podcast, I talked about building a house. I built my house. And here we are. We're in my new home.
Bob the Drag Queen
We are in. We're in Aspen, Colorado.
Monet X Change
Aspen, Colorado.
Bob the Drag Queen
I put the ass. I told you to use that hashtag. You still not use it.
Monet X Change
I put the Aspen caption.
Bob the Drag Queen
I put the ass in Aspen.
Monet X Change
I guess I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna get in the snow naked and put and do it.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're not gonna get the snow naked.
Monet X Change
Why not?
Bob the Drag Queen
A horrible idea.
Monet X Change
It's so cold.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's cold and hard. Like, there's no.
Monet X Change
If we had like, a house in a backyard, I would do it, but we are in a full, like, condo town.
Bob the Drag Queen
We're in. I mean, Aspen is. Aspen is a small town.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
But it's very compact.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
So there's not a lot of.
Monet X Change
I say Aspen looks like exactly how I thought it would look like. Kind of like when you go to Nottingham and you're like. And they're like, oh, this is the place where Robin Hood was. Nottingham looks just like some Robin Hood shit. It looks like people are still stealing and giving to the. To the needy.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know that it looks like that to me. It looks.
Monet X Change
Have you ever been to Nottingham? Yeah, it looks just like Robin Hood Town to me.
Bob the Drag Queen
This looks a little bit like P Town covered in snow.
Monet X Change
I've never been to P Town.
Bob the Drag Queen
Never been to P Town before. So we're at Aspen Gay Ski Week and it is less gay then.
Monet X Change
Are you speaking like a parade?
Bob the Drag Queen
I was thinking, like, I was thinking Fire Island. P Town. That's when I think, like, gay spots. That's what I think about.
Monet X Change
Okay. But those places are gay all year round. Aspen is just gay for this one week.
Bob the Drag Queen
I just tell you what I was thinking about.
Monet X Change
They did their part. They put progressive rainbow flags everywhere. They was like, we're trying to be as gay as we can.
Bob the Drag Queen
It just wasn't. But also kind of like when you go to a World Pride and that town is super gay for that week. Have you ever been to World Pride besides New York?
Monet X Change
I think I went to one of
Bob the Drag Queen
the world War Pride anyway. Or when you go to. Maybe I was expecting to look like a gay pride, like A gay pride event. They were just like really, really gay.
Monet X Change
I will say we. It was pretty gay at where we went. Beaverville. Buttermilk. Buttermilk. It was pretty. Literally one of the first things we see was the fiercest twink in all the land in her little snow heel boots, living full beat, hair done. I mean, that's pretty gay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, it just wasn't a lot. We had two overtly gay experience. That would have been the guy who was for some reason skiing in jeans because Monet fell.
Monet X Change
Okay, one time.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, I'm just. I'm not.
Monet X Change
This is not just ashamed you, but the way that you went into it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like I fell several times. You were talking about this one story. Y' all heard it, right?
Monet X Change
Comment below. Comment below.
Bob the Drag Queen
If you heard it.
Monet X Change
It was very cuz Monet fell and
Bob the Drag Queen
it fell this story and I. And that was not intending to harm you, in my words. But we were walk. We were coming down the slope, just ate it.
Monet X Change
Because Andy was on the list and
Bob the Drag Queen
he was like, oh, that, that. Now that's the part that I really need to be like this on. They were like this. This lady named George was our. Georgie was our. She was by George. Oh, she was our ski instructor. And she was like, whatever.
Monet X Change
I love rubber bands.
Bob the Drag Queen
George was great. Apples, rub fans and ice. Like you love rubber bands.
Monet X Change
What?
Bob the Drag Queen
I love.
Monet X Change
Okay, I like playing.
Bob the Drag Queen
I said, almost like you said it.
Monet X Change
I love. Okay, you're right. I like playing with rubber bands.
Bob the Drag Queen
You won't even tell your boyfriend you love. How'd you tell Roman Prince I like you?
Monet X Change
Oh my God, grow up.
Bob the Drag Queen
So she was like, you gotta, you know, look where you're going. It's really important. Look where you're going. So Monet is not looking where she's going. And then all of a sudden, Monet looks up and sees Andy on the lift. Then she thinks she's Romeo and Juliet.
Monet X Change
Some shit. Oh my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
And then. And then Monet just isn't paying attention. The next thing I know, Monet is crashing into the. Oh, that's. You weren't paying attention.
Monet X Change
Okay, that's another part that happened. Yes, I was paying attention, but then
Bob the Drag Queen
you crashed into me.
Monet X Change
But no, you are coming down the little steep thing right before the end and you. This nigga is zigzagging.
Bob the Drag Queen
You are going this way down, but you have to turn to stop. This is pretty common. This is what everyone does.
Monet X Change
Yes, it is.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I think I want to look. And the next thing. Next thing I know, Monet is crashing into the back of Me.
Monet X Change
I didn't apologize.
Bob the Drag Queen
Cause you crashed into me. You tripped me with your sights. I did not. I was in front of you. I was just slowing down. And we. Everyone turns. Otherwise, you'll just keep going. Everyone starts turning. Monet did not start turning like everyone else. She's looking up at Andy, forlorning, forlorn hand over heart. And then she crashes into me. And then there's some guy named Nick or Eric.
Monet X Change
Oh, he said names.
Bob the Drag Queen
We got names, said Eric or Nick. It was an ick name.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
And getting up from skis is hard, which is crazy.
Monet X Change
Getting up with skis is very hard. I didn't know how to do that.
Bob the Drag Queen
You have to turn your skis when you're on the floor perpendicular to the. That's to stop and to get up. Cause I felt a lot, so trust me, I know. I got this lesson a lot. Turn your skis perpendicular to the slope, and. And then you have to just kind of wiggle your way up or have someone stand on your skis and then pull you up.
Monet X Change
Skiing was way easier than I thought it would be. Right. Would you agree?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, it was. I mean, I didn't think it'd be too hard. And it was fun. And you know what? Maybe white people are onto something.
Monet X Change
It was kind of fun. Well, Bob wanted to snowboard, but everyone kept on saying, you don't want to snowboard. Snowboarding is hard. Skiing is way easier than snowboarding.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, but the snowboarding looks way cooler.
Monet X Change
It was a little.
Bob the Drag Queen
It looks more fun. But this was fun. I will say that.
Monet X Change
A really. I did not think I was gonna have a good time for. When we started our little training session on that little baby hill thing when. When Georgie was teaching us, I was like, oh, my God, this is so annoying. But then I was like, oh, my God. This is fun.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, okay.
Monet X Change
I started having fun when we. When we went up. That little. The little baby lift thing up.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, the. The pulley system.
Monet X Change
So. So y' all know how.
Bob the Drag Queen
Hand pulley, whatever.
Monet X Change
Yeah. So y' all know how most you go to most ski or snow things, they have, like, the. The traditional gondola lift things that you sit down, take you up. We were on the practice one, so they had these, like, this.
Bob the Drag Queen
This.
Monet X Change
This long thing with these.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's like tabs, just, like, pieces of plastic this long. So it's a rope that just does this, and then a piece of plastic. A very hard piece of plastic about 12 inches long. And it's a plastic bar. You grab it, and then it pulls
Monet X Change
you Forward and it pulls you. So Bob was on this thing trying to be cute, right? So I got on the thing before Bob, and I'm on a little pulley thing taking me up, living my life, enjoying myself. And Bob says to Patty, ooh, watch this. So Bob tries to do some slick shit to make me fall.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was trying to like push the rope to make Monet fall. Falling down and the thing starts dragging you. So I was just like. Just like in the snow. Drag me. Drag girl.
Monet X Change
You a drag girl?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. They have to stop the hole. Then there's an old man named Jimmy.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God. Talking about Jimmy. So we go up this little. So this is like the little train slope to get. You used to, like the real big boy one, right? So it's a pretty. It's a nice decline. And you're learning how to turn and stuff. So then this is like, Bob, you want your first time or your second time?
Bob the Drag Queen
This is like my. I think my. I think it's literally my. Yeah, one of the two. My first time.
Monet X Change
Yeah, your first or second time. Going down the slope. So Bob is going down the thing and he's coming really fast. So you're trying to do. To turn things to slow down, but obviously.
Bob the Drag Queen
But turning his keys is kind of hard, by the way.
Monet X Change
Yeah, yeah. Because to learn how to do it, it's hard. Like you're teaching Bonnie how to do this. So Bob is doing anything. Coming. Bob is like going pretty fast. And then this old ass man named Jimmy who has been apparently Georgie said he's the oldest person here. He's worked here for a very long time. And he's yelling at Bob. I heard squirrel. So I heard him say, hey, squirrel.
Bob the Drag Queen
Squirrel.
Monet X Change
It.
Bob the Drag Queen
Squirrel.
Monet X Change
Or something like that. And then Vava's like, I'm trying to slow down.
Bob the Drag Queen
So he's telling me to fall. What he's saying is fall. But I. He's like. Cause he's like, you don't want to run into the building.
Monet X Change
So just obviously, like, that's your intention. You want to run into the fucking building.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I said, I'm trying. I was like, I'm trying. So I'm like trying to like slow myself down.
Monet X Change
And he's like, squirrel. Squirrel. And then Vava's like. And he's. When I get. I'm like. I'm like. He's learning. He's just learning how to do it right now.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's like, this is our first time ever doing this. This is our first time ever doing this.
Monet X Change
And he's like, yeah, well, you need to.
Bob the Drag Queen
Squirrel.
Monet X Change
And I was like, squirrel? I was like, what do you mean, squirrel? He's like.
Bob the Drag Queen
I said, fall.
Monet X Change
And I was like, bitch, you did not say fall.
Bob the Drag Queen
You did fall. And then. And then George came back down, and she was like, what's going on? I was like. I was like, jimmy is very aggressive. I was like, jimmy is a grump. I said. Right in front of Jimmy. I said, jimmy is very. Jimmy is very aggressive.
Monet X Change
He is very aggressive. Just a grumpy old.
Bob the Drag Queen
Just.
Monet X Change
Honestly, it was like some character from, like, some show. Like the old grumpy man that's been there for, like, 60 years.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's like the guy from Up.
Monet X Change
Yeah, very. Though. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Except taller. He was like, probably, like, 5 8, 5 9.
Monet X Change
Yeah. But skiing was fine. I would definitely do it again. We have, like, rentals. We can go back again. But my boot hurt. My left ankle hurt so much, so I don't think I'll go back again. We're supposed to go tubing on Sunday.
Bob the Drag Queen
Tubing is very fun.
Monet X Change
I've gone tubing before, but I don't want no boring ass tubing. I want, like, fun, steep tubing. What?
Bob the Drag Queen
It's just, like, sometimes when you do this thing where you are so dramatic about stuff. How am I to be dramatic? No, like you said. Sometimes you said, like. I can't remember what it was that it was like. This is not an exact. It was something like this, but we were, like, in the dressing room getting ready for the. For the. I think it's not even just joke, but it's just so funny. We were, like, in the dressing room waiting for the show. And then Monet was like. Someone said, oh, they have stuff in the green room. And then Monet was like, they better have fucking vodka.
Monet X Change
I did not see that.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's something like that. It's something like you would say, like, I'd be like, I hope they get us some so and so. And they're gonna get us vodka, too. And I'd be like, oh, my God.
Monet X Change
And most of the time. Okay, just to Rob.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I just said, you're probably joking. But it's just.
Monet X Change
I'm joking. I'm playing around.
Bob the Drag Queen
But it's still like, oh, my goodness,
Monet X Change
this is a lot.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's just. That's my reaction. I mean, you're doing something to elicit a reaction, and you get one, and you're shook that you got one.
Monet X Change
Okay. I mean, does that make sense?
Bob the Drag Queen
So I'm just like, oh, my God, this is wild.
Monet X Change
You act like, I'm some. You act like I'm fucking with Shangela.
Bob the Drag Queen
What does that mean?
Monet X Change
Stories I've heard from her, working with some of the girls.
Bob the Drag Queen
What have you heard? Mm.
Monet X Change
We can talk about it off camera.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm good.
Monet X Change
I love Shangela.
Bob the Drag Queen
Shannon, she must call you.
Monet X Change
Does she call people Shannon? Call me once or twice. Well, we've talked about Shangela a lot on this podcast. Remember after the Puerto Vallarta thing we mentioned on the podcast, And I'm surprised she didn't call you. Did she call you?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, but I'm surprised she didn't call you about the nigga thing on New Year's Eve.
Monet X Change
Oh, yeah, she didn't. Shangela calls me for times, I have to say, getting a call from Shangela, she's always just so happy.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's very, very, very, like, jovial.
Monet X Change
Jovial. There we go. Jovial. Blissful.
Bob the Drag Queen
We've gotten into her. I've gotten into arguments with Shangela before, though.
Monet X Change
Bob. You've gone to an argument. You saying that like, none of us are shocked. Bob is like, you said it like,
Narrator/Advertiser
I don't have it.
Monet X Change
It's happened. We can believe you. You could have said, I got into an argument. We would all have been like, for sure.
Bob the Drag Queen
Why are you saying it's so obvious? Do you think it's. Cassandra fights a lot of people, Bob,
Monet X Change
because you were very combative and you have fought with.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm the combative one.
Monet X Change
Yes. The history of this podcast proves that you have fought with.
Bob the Drag Queen
Want to fight by myself, Violence.
Monet X Change
By myself.
Bob the Drag Queen
Fighting on this podcast.
Monet X Change
But what is the common denominator in these fights?
Bob the Drag Queen
What's common denominator? What's the common denominator in all your fights? Bitch, you. Everyone is a common denominator in their own fight.
Monet X Change
In terms of drag race girls, I've not had a fight with any drag race.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because you're passive.
Monet X Change
I'm not passive. You just said so. Okay, so which one is it? Am I the aggressive one that's like giving my fucking cocktails, or am I
Bob the Drag Queen
the one that's like, I just said, you joke. I was like, even if it's a joke, it is getting a reaction because you're eliciting a response and then you get one. I've said it was. I'm not saying that. I was like, it is a joke,
Monet X Change
but it's like, oh, no. We were all reading between the lines. We saw what you were trying to say.
Bob the Drag Queen
What was I trying to say?
Monet X Change
That I'm some big, nasty bitch?
Bob the Drag Queen
I didn't say that. I usually don't mince my words. And if I wanted to say that,
Monet X Change
I would have said that. Do you think that's why you end up in fights? Because you don't mince your words?
Bob the Drag Queen
Maybe. Maybe because I don't let a lot of, like, tiny little aggressions slip past me.
Monet X Change
Like.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, if someone does something to bother me, I say it when it bothers me instead of, like, waiting for the second, third, or fourth time.
Monet X Change
Do you think that that's always. That that's always necessary for me?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I mean, you can do things how you want to do. You can let people treat you however you want to treat them. And I. And I let people treat me.
Monet X Change
I want to get them is like, if it's a pattern, I'll be like, okay, we need to nip this in the bud. But I feel like everyone is guilty. You, myself, Jacob, Kennedy, Patty, Annie. We're all guilty of doing something that people may not like, that hits people the wrong way.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I think if someone ever calls you out, there's nothing wrong with it in the first time, that is okay. If someone.
Monet X Change
It is okay. But I'm saying that may be the reason why you get into so many tips.
Bob the Drag Queen
Sure, probably. But if someone does something that you don't like, I don't think there's anything wrong with the first time. They'd be like, I don't like that.
Monet X Change
Oh, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm just saying that maybe the catalyst for a lot of your arguments, any of your fights with a lot of the girls.
Bob the Drag Queen
But also, you end up in a situation where you be like, I cannot believe I'm letting this person treat me.
Monet X Change
Well, this is true.
Bob the Drag Queen
You be like, this is getting. This has gotten out of control.
Monet X Change
I absolutely end up in those situations.
Bob the Drag Queen
And people usually be like, I'm gonna avoid Bob because I don't want to get in one of the. I'm gonna avoid Ms. Bob the Drag queen. But this is advisory, not rivalry.
Monet X Change
Well, I mean, at this point, we might as well turn into rivalry and do advisory second.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, we can do that.
Monet X Change
Yeah. You know, Bob, this is a shared. You don't get to dictate how everything goes. You can pull me to the side real quick. You know, let's take a break, and we gonna address this problem. Close your eyes.

Monet X Change
What's gonna give background Linkin park, this
Bob the Drag Queen
is one of my favorite albums is the Collision Course album between Linkin park and Jay Z. They released a problem.
Monet X Change
I remember this.
Bob the Drag Queen
They released from around 2005. 2004 actually. We can check right now. What is your favorite album? It's one of my favorite albums. 2004. Yeah. And it is just absolutely one of my favorite albums of all time. And they just re recorded their own songs, but just did it was. It's a album.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Which is great when artists do that because you don't. Sometimes they'll go and do like little bits. But you can just literally just get the stems of the original records and it just. A producer puts them together.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, I'm sure they use some of the old stems and stuff from stuff too, but. But there's new stuff with the. And then Linkin park did some of Jay Z's lyrics. Jay Z, I think, did a few Linkin park lyrics. They kind of mashed them up. It is really good. And my favorite song from the album, oh my God. It's a very short album. There's only six songs on it. But Point of Authority, 99 Problems, One Step Closer is a great one, which is those three songs together. Also Nom Encore. And the way it begins. I'm just gonna play a little bit of the way it began. Like, the way this album begins. Like, this is probably one of my favorite genres. It's like rap, rock and roll. It's one of my favorite genres of music. You want to hear it?
Monet X Change
Where's my Frappuccino? All right, let's do this.
Bob the Drag Queen
See, this is Linkin Park. Over the Jay Z beat. Dirt Shoulder. This is where it gets wild. This is when I started loving it. This is it for me. I know just. There we go. Pimp nigga, go brush your shoulders off Ladies use pimps too. Go and brush your shoulders off. That slaps is so good.
Monet X Change
Have you ever been to a rock concert?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. So I used to go to concerts with this guy named Michael. Michael Jordan? No, Michael and I would go to concerts and he liked this group called. Oh, my God, I cannot remember the name of it.
Monet X Change
741.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, they're Blink 182. No, they're like, a little less known than that.
Monet X Change
Papa Roach.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I can text Math. Anyway, he was obsessed with this band, but he would also go to see a lot of band we saw. Who's that? I want to kill. I want to kill my boyfriend. Who's that girl? Can you Google it? Jacob. She wrote a song called I Want to Kill My Boyfriend. Her name was Natalia Kills.
Monet X Change
I don't know who that is.
Bob the Drag Queen
Anyway, and the thing about him is he's like six five or six. Six.
Monet X Change
This is your friend?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes, and I'm six two. But he was an avid. I mean, avid concert goer. So we would always get their sin at the. I mean, sternum to the edge of the stomach.
Monet X Change
And how it was early, I could not imagine going to. Because artists. Wait, hold on.
Bob the Drag Queen
Placebo.
Monet X Change
Placebo.
Bob the Drag Queen
The band was the name. Placebo.
Monet X Change
I never heard of that.
Bob the Drag Queen
I hadn't heard of them either. But I met. I heard of them through Michael. Through the grapevine. Mark. Oh, yeah. I don't think I'd ever actually gone to a placebo concert. But he was just one of the folks who just really love going to concerts. Like.
Monet X Change
And how's early? Like, I cannot. Because artists be lazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
We were the first ones there.
Monet X Change
So, like, what. How long is that before the concert starts?
Bob the Drag Queen
So. So we were going to see, like, not. We weren't going to see, like, Jay Z, Linkin Park, Beyonce. We were going to see, like, smaller bands.
Monet X Change
Got it.
Bob the Drag Queen
And we would go to places like. Like a concert hall in Brooklyn or stuff like that. Like the places that we perform at. Nowadays, and if the concert was at 8, we would get there at 4 or 5.
Monet X Change
Four hours before the concert. Absolutely not.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because there's also an opening act.
Monet X Change
I know, but. Bitch.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, that's what we did.
Monet X Change
Four hours. That's crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
This was in my 20s when he and I used to hang out a lot.
Monet X Change
So that means you're standing there for, like. For a solid six hours.
Bob the Drag Queen
We spent a lot of time there. It was kind of like a whole community of people. So you would meet a lot of other super fans of the band. It's kind of like a vibe. It's a whole.
Monet X Change
Your favorite word.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's a scene. It's a whole scene. And you can. It's like. It's like this, like. I don't know, this, like, fan scene that. I mean, I was really enjoying it because I was hanging out with a friend of mine, and it wasn't really my scene, to be honest, but it was fun. It was. It was very fun to go to these concerts. But people did hate us because we were so tall.
Monet X Change
Oh, of course. That's annoying.
Bob the Drag Queen
And we were. I mean, at the. So I would usually stand, like, my sternum directly to stage, and then he would stand, like, directly. I mean, like, pressed up against me, behind me, so that we could. So that he. Because he was very cute. He's very cute. But we were very platonic. But he's very, very beautiful. And we would, you know, just kind of hang out and kick it and do our thing. He introduced me to the, like, the idea of going to these, like, concerts and stuff, because I was. I have been to concerts before, but not like that.
Monet X Change
Gotcha. And then he.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I kind of just stopped talking after years. He went to law school, and he actually one time said something that really offended me, like.
Monet X Change
Oh, tell us.
Narrator/Advertiser
Ooh.
Bob the Drag Queen
So one time. Cause he used to come to all my drag shows. Like, all of my drag shows. I'm gonna find a picture of him. And one day, I was like, one day he goes, I'm gonna move to California. And I said, I might go to California too. We should be roommates. And then he goes, we can't be roommates.
Monet X Change
Why?
Bob the Drag Queen
And I said, why can't we be roommates?
Monet X Change
He's hot.
Bob the Drag Queen
He was like, I want to be a lawyer. You're a drag queen. Like, how are we going to afford
Monet X Change
the same home work? Cut to. Is he still practicing law?
Bob the Drag Queen
He is practicing law, yeah.
Monet X Change
Is he a good lawyer? Like, is he. Like, is he. Does he. Does.
Bob the Drag Queen
He has a lot of teeth. I'm not kind of spoil of his tea. But he did follow some hard times.
Monet X Change
Got it.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'm not relishing in that sound like you're relishing. I'm not relishing that he didn't follow, but he is practicing law now. And shout out to Michael.
Monet X Change
The first concert I ever went to was the Beyonce experience in 2008.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's your first concert?
Monet X Change
My first concert. How old were you? 2008. That means I was 17. And I was.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, you were not there in 2008.
Monet X Change
No, it wasn't 2008. It was like 2007 then. Whatever year the Beyonce. I think Beyonce was 2008. I was 18 because I'm. What the year is. This is 22. I'm 2032. Yeah, I was 18. I graduated high school in 2008.
Bob the Drag Queen
What do you mean you're the year? It's 2022. You're not 22. You weren't born in 2000.
Monet X Change
I'm saying the last number. Go ahead, Jacob. The Beyonce tour was 2007. 2007.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, so you were seven.
Monet X Change
I was. No, I'm saying so, like, 2000 in 1990, I was zero. 1991, I was 1, 2, 3. That's how it goes for me. That's how I remember my birthday.
Bob the Drag Queen
You don't remember just because you're older than you were last year. So you don't remember just because you're old.
Monet X Change
I wasted a Beyonce experience in 2007 with one of my besties, Tyrone Clinton. Cause his mom got tickets from her job, and she didn't want to go, so I gave it to him. So he took me and my high school girlfriend, Lamar. Yeah. I'm giving you some payback for all the years of abuse I've enjoyed on this podcast.
Bob the Drag Queen
Not the ball.
Monet X Change
And it was the Beyonce Experience. Now, we didn't have the best seats. They were like, you know, it was at Madison Square Garden, and we were, like, pretty up there. But I remember just being like, oh, my God, this is in insane. Like, the energy and electricity from fucking Beyonce from the cheap seats that we had was incredible.
Bob the Drag Queen
And honestly, that's not an exchange of stranger. Like, it's the energy of the crowd and Beyonce.
Monet X Change
Right, right. Yeah, all of that. But I just remember looking at her because before then, I liked Beyonce. You know, I was like, beyonce's cool. I mean, it was Destiny's Child I really liked at that point. I think that was her first solo tour. And I liked Destiny's Child, but something about being in that place, in that auditorium with everyone and seeing her just go in. And I was like, this is crazy. I was like, I want this and I love that. The thing
Bob the Drag Queen
going to a concert that big and you're sitting really far back. You're really just watching the monitors.
Monet X Change
Oh, for sure.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like you're actually paying to watch something on a screen. Sure. Because you're so far.
Monet X Change
Or you're paying for, like I said, that energy, the nva, like, oh, you're paying for that experience too.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's like the difference between seeing a movie in the movie theaters and watching it on Netflix, you know, five years later. Yeah, I think you are paying for the. You are watching on screen. But it's part of the camaraderie of, of the group of people. But it is. I've been to a few really, really big concerts and I was like, I can't even see. I mean, I had actually pretty good scenes for both of them. I saw Madonna.
Monet X Change
Did you? What year?
Bob the Drag Queen
Rebel Heart. This was maybe 2017, 2018. I saw Madonna with Rebel Heart at Barkwood.
Monet X Change
Was it a good tour?
Bob the Drag Queen
It was very good. Madonna's one of the first. When you see her live, your respect for her really goes up.
Monet X Change
I would like to, because I like Madonna. I'm not like a crazy Madonna. Gay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I like Madonna. Then I went to see this and I was like, w. She's amazing.
Monet X Change
What was so good?
Bob the Drag Queen
The production value is so good. The ideas are really brilliant. The show is so well thought out from beginning to end. And then you all. There's also. It's just a small party that's like. You just think of how old she is and that's.
Monet X Change
You probably the only person I hear say that, like RuPaul. You're like, every time I look at RuPaul, just remember that is a. That is a 62 year old man.
Bob the Drag Queen
That. Because that, that is a part. Like I'm thinking myself like, oh my God, this like Madonna is older than my mom.
Monet X Change
And you're trying to picture your mom doing it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, like Madonna's like pole dancing. Like, literally, like, oh, your mom wouldn't
Monet X Change
wore a bathing suit to the beach.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, but she's like pole dancing 50ft in the air. She's like doing really amazing. And then I saw Kendrick Lamar.
Monet X Change
How was that?
Bob the Drag Queen
Kendrick Lamar is also great. It was a very small concert in a very large. It was at Barclays.
Monet X Change
I mean. What do you mean a small concert? Like, it wasn't big production.
Bob the Drag Queen
Kendrick Lamar only. I don't know how to stop that? Kendrick Lamar only has. I'll just do that. Kendrick Lamar only has. There's never more than two people on stage at once.
Monet X Change
Really?
Bob the Drag Queen
He only has two people in his show that aren't him.
Monet X Change
So for this, they didn't have dances and shit.
Bob the Drag Queen
Technically, there's one dancer, there's one martial artist.
Monet X Change
A martial artist.
Bob the Drag Queen
There was a martial artist and there was a dancer, and there was Kendrick Lamar, but they were never all three on stage at once. It was only ever two at a time.
Monet X Change
Got it.
Bob the Drag Queen
And it was this, like, massive concert. And I went with these famous ladies and.
Monet X Change
Okay, Bob. Famous what?
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, you know, let me say what I'm about to say. First. You'll see why I'm not putting their business in the street. I went with these famous ladies, comedians, and we were just sitting there, and then all of a sudden, one of them just, like, in this building, just, like, lights up a blunt. And I was like, oh, my God.
Monet X Change
A Kendrick Lamar concert lends itself to that.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, I didn't know this.
Monet X Change
If you go see a Rihanna in a concert, expect people will be smoking
Bob the Drag Queen
weed around you indoors.
Monet X Change
Yes.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I was like, this is wild.
Monet X Change
Do you get contact high?
Bob the Drag Queen
No. I mean, I have in my life.
Monet X Change
You're never really a Ron.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't get hot box in a room. So they started smoking weed and passing around. I was like, this is wild. And they weren't vaping. They were like, full on. Smoking a blunt. Like, passing a blunt, nigga lipping.
Monet X Change
Well, I didn't know. I didn't know you were, like, a Kendrick Lamar fan.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I got invited and I'm not, like, a huge Kendrick Lamar fan, but I like. I like. I like a few of his songs. I like. I like everything. His main song, Be Humble, Sit Down, Be humble and like, you know, nobody play for me. He also has that same vibe as Collision Course that like rock and roll rap.
Monet X Change
Maybe he was inspired by that when he was a kid. He's young, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know how Ken Jamar is. Can you Google how Kendra Moore is 44?
Narrator/Advertiser
34.
Bob the Drag Queen
34.
Monet X Change
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's about my age.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Are we young?
Bob the Drag Queen
I think we're young, right? Yeah. We're not like, we're not. We're not like, young adults.
Monet X Change
I feel like we're past. I feel like we're not old, obviously, but I don't feel like we're young. I feel like we're just past young.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think 19 year olds think we're old.
Monet X Change
Oh, for sure.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, I remember being 18 in college, and then my roommate was dating a 29 year old and I was like, this guy is.
Monet X Change
But in the grand scheme of life, would people generally call this young or old? I think they would say young.
Bob the Drag Queen
Would you? Oh, because old. I think they would say we're just adults. We're like adults. Like, I think someone my age could have a kid that's either 15 or a kid that's 4.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Or have no kids at all.
Monet X Change
So would you say it's young?
Bob the Drag Queen
We're not young adults.
Monet X Change
No, no, no, no. You would just say it's kids, teens, young people.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, the real tea is old people. The real tea is this phrase doesn't quite work for this because the connot we really are middle age. Like, this is.
Monet X Change
We're not middle aged.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, based off this is the middle of our life.
Monet X Change
But people don't. People.
Bob the Drag Queen
I know. I don't know why people think that 50 is middle aged. That seems weird to me because that would have been seen with that. Most people live to be 100 years old, but we're roughly in the middle of our lives.
Monet X Change
Roughly. I would say 40 is middle age.
Bob the Drag Queen
You think? I mean, I don't know. I don't know. What I'm saying is we are roughly in the middle of our lives. I don't think.
Monet X Change
Don't put we. You know, you. I'm. I'm 31. I'm not. You're 35. 30. 34.
Bob the Drag Queen
35.
Monet X Change
You're 35. You don't say. We. You.
Bob the Drag Queen
The average U.S. life expectancy is 78 years old, which means in the middle
Monet X Change
of that would be 38.
Bob the Drag Queen
38. 38.
Monet X Change
So you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay. But yes, I'm older than you. You got me. I've been older than you your whole life. You got me.
Monet X Change
Monet. Who do you want to see in concert soon?
Bob the Drag Queen
I would love to see. I want to see Megan. Pete.
Monet X Change
Oh, I would love to see Megan.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to see Amala.
Narrator/Advertiser
Who?
Monet X Change
Amala.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, my God.
Monet X Change
Who's Amala?
Bob the Drag Queen
She's like one of my favorite artists of the year.
Monet X Change
I know, I know. He's being. You're being so ridiculous.
Bob the Drag Queen
Amala's one of my favorite artists of the year.
Monet X Change
You're being so ridiculous. Who is Amala? What is her stage name?
Bob the Drag Queen
She's. First of all, she's huge. And the fact that you don't know who Amela is is crazy. Google Amala. Google Amola. Google Amala Glommy.
Monet X Change
Google everything. Who the fuck is Amala? It's not Cardi it's not Megan. Who is Amala?
Bob the Drag Queen
You can find out by just Googling her.
Monet X Change
I'm not Googling it. You know, I don't want to know. You are so ridiculous.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to see Ablo.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I want to see Adele.
Monet X Change
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'm going to. I'm absolutely going to Todrick's Feminine tour.
Monet X Change
I'm going to talk to Todrick's tour. For sure.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Monet X Change
Okay. So Bob is. Bob loves Adele. A couple years ago, the year that the hello album came out, Bob, it was you on Spotify.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bob song 25.
Monet X Change
Bob will listens to that shit all the time. Yada, yada, yada. Yet Adele had a full concert on TV and you didn't listen to it. So how much of an Adele fan are you?
Bob the Drag Queen
That doesn't. You don't have to consume everything someone does to you.
Monet X Change
If you are a die.
Bob the Drag Queen
If you. If you are. I never said I was a Die Hard Adele fan. You said that. I've never said. I said I like it. Done. I want to go to her concert. You said I was a Die Hard Adele fan. Adele was my fifth most listened to artist of the year.
Monet X Change
That's if she was five. That's because she ain't pushed shit out in like in literally five years.
Bob the Drag Queen
She released something literally last year.
Monet X Change
Once she put less. Oh, no.
Bob the Drag Queen
But Bob, her last album, Bob, it
Monet X Change
came out like the day before Christmas. It wasn't enough time. You had 360 more days.
Bob the Drag Queen
I never claimed to be a Die Hard Adele fan. I like Adele. I have never in my life said I am a Die Hard Adele fan. I like Adele. She's great. She's super.
Monet X Change
So who's your number one artist? Oh, so Cardi. So you don't wanna see Cardi in concert?
Bob the Drag Queen
Carter's not my number one artist. I think right now, constantly, right now, my number one artist is Amelia.
Monet X Change
Amala. Jacob. Who's Amala?
Bob the Drag Queen
Don't tell Jacob who Amela is.
Monet X Change
Don't want to.
Bob the Drag Queen
Then we'll just keep ridiculous discussing this way I don't tell Monae who Amela is. You can google who Amela is. Amela is one of my top artists right now. She's amazing.
Monet X Change
God, Jesus Christ, you are. So this is what it's like being boss friends.
Bob the Drag Queen
Just Google who she is.
Monet X Change
Fucking Google it. Well, anyway, I'll say what I want to see. Obviously. Rihanna. I feel like if Rihanna put out.
Bob the Drag Queen
Does Rihanna have a number one album out?
Monet X Change
I don't think she has, like Nick Mariah put out. On number ones. I don't think Rihanna would do that.
Bob the Drag Queen
People don't do compilation albums anymore.
Monet X Change
Why not?
Bob the Drag Queen
Because you can just listen to them. You can make a playlist. But listen, back in the day, it was really hard to get all the number one. You'd have to literally just keep pulling all the scenes. But now they can literally just make a playlist, put it on Spotify.
Monet X Change
But if. I'm saying right now, if Rihanna came out with that number one album, it would be. It would.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bitch, I'll make you a playlist. Do you want me to just put all of them on one playlist and send it to you?
Monet X Change
I want Rihanna to do it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I will make it for you. I will do the whole thing.
Monet X Change
I obviously want to see Sza. So here's a story about Sza. I had tickets to go see her at day in Vegas. Vegas. But I was filming in this in. Oh, my God. I was filming in November. Bob, can you stop doing stuff like that? Because you set me off on the whole thing. Let's take a break. I need to catch my breath. And we're back. So I was wanted to go. I had to get to go. I think I said this on the podcast before. I had to get to see her day in Vegas when I was filming in November. So they couldn't go see it. And I spent $400 on those tickets. It was for me and Naomi to go.
Bob the Drag Queen
The most I ever spent on a ticket was for Kendrick Lamar.
Monet X Change
How much is that?
Bob the Drag Queen
I think they were like $500 to see Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick Lamar.
Monet X Change
No, that's not true. Kendrick weren't. Listen to the quality of the shit.
Bob the Drag Queen
Kendrick. I apologize. I thought it was money well spent.
Monet X Change
He loved Kendrick Lamar. I even got high by accident. So Sza. I would love to see Sza in concert. Like, like, da da da da da da. Beyonce. Of course I want to see her again. I didn't want to see her last one, the Formation tour. I didn't see that.
Bob the Drag Queen
I've never seen Beyonce a lot, and I want to. But to be honest, I, I think I, I, I like, I like Beyonce's music, but I think I'm really, really into the, the everything from like Yonce Ford. The first crazy love, the first visual. I look, I said Ford.
Monet X Change
No, Yonce is Yonce.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, back. I mean, and.
Monet X Change
Oh, so you don't like the new stuff?
Bob the Drag Queen
I like it, I like it, I like it. But I don't know, I felt like it just doesn't. It doesn't. I guess Resonate with me the way that her older stuff does from her first visual album lemonade. Yeah.
Monet X Change
You didn't like lemonade? Lemonade was after yon song.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, well, then Lemonade. Lemonade and back.
Monet X Change
So back. So after lemonade was just.
Bob the Drag Queen
But I did like. But I did really love, obviously, you
Monet X Change
know, bum bum bum bum formation.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I actually. I really loved. I really loved black is king.
Narrator/Advertiser
Literally.
Monet X Change
There has been.
Bob the Drag Queen
There is literally all this stuff you want. No, I didn't. I guess I just didn't like Beyonce. I just wasn't crazy about yonce.
Monet X Change
Bob, that's partition. You love partition. No, you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Partition's fine. I don't like. You never seem like love partition.
Monet X Change
You love that album. Bob. Bob, I know you.
Bob the Drag Queen
The album's great. Yeah, it's great. But, like, no, Partition was limited. No, no. Yonse was before lemonade. Yes. Yes. It's yonce. Yeah. You got me fucked up. You got me fucking thinking. I'm great. This is the gaslight Yonce in back. So I think it's just lemonade was kind of like.
Monet X Change
It was b day, then dangerously in love. Then this is the Beyonce one. We were talking about yonce with partition on it. And then after that was lemonade.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. And I didn't really listen to lemonade much.
Monet X Change
And. Oh, I am Sasha fierce is what we're missing.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's what it is. No, no, no. I'm Sasha fierce. Was.
Monet X Change
We were.
Bob the Drag Queen
I loved. I'm Sasha fierce. I love b day. I love dangerously in love. I mean, I think lemonade's fine, and I like the visual album of black is king, but I don't know a lot of the songs from it. Except my favorite Beyonce song is from black is king, which is what? Which is power.
Monet X Change
Power.
Bob the Drag Queen
Which is also on the lion king soundtrack.
Monet X Change
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So sizzo and Beyonce.
Bob the Drag Queen
Maybe the lion king tie in. You never asked who my first concert was.
Monet X Change
Oh, okay. Who was your first concert?
Bob the Drag Queen
Thanks for asking, sir mix a lot.
Monet X Change
Sir mix a lot. How old were you?
Bob the Drag Queen
I was probably six or seven.
Monet X Change
So you obviously didn't choose to go to this.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, sir mix A. Okay.
Monet X Change
He has dirty lyrics. Your mom lets you listen to that?
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, his lyrics weren't crazy.
Monet X Change
I like big butts, and I cannot lie.
Bob the Drag Queen
He didn't say, I like fat, juicy asses that slap my face. He said, I like big butts. You couldn't say big butts in your
Monet X Change
house for a six year old.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, you couldn't say butts.
Monet X Change
I could say butts, but my mom would not Let me listen to a song. I like big butts and I cannot lie you otherwise can't deny what I get sprung when I round things in my face. No, my mom would not let me listen to that.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm not here for you judging the way my mother raised me.
Monet X Change
I'm not judging.
Bob the Drag Queen
Knowing about the race.
Monet X Change
Y' all just saying it. That's.
Bob the Drag Queen
It Sounds a little judgy.
Monet X Change
You chose to go see Sir Mix a Lot work.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, Sir Mix a Lot was huge. Everyone loved Baby Got Back.
Monet X Change
Of course. It's a big song.
Bob the Drag Queen
So Sir Mix A Lot came to Columbus, Georgia, and then I saw Omar.
Monet X Change
No, he's from Columbus, Georgia.
Bob the Drag Queen
He is not. He is from Oakland. And then I saw. I don't know why I know that he's from Oakland, but he is from Oakland. And I saw Omarion when I was in high school because I went with my.
Monet X Change
Not Omarion. He had left B2K at this point.
Bob the Drag Queen
He left B2K. And I took my. My mom's girlfriend's niece to Seal Marion.
Monet X Change
What year was this?
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, 2003. 2002.
Monet X Change
So you were 17? 18.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was in high school. So 16 or 17. Work.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I did that math. Look at me. I know you so well. Young pad one and.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, yeah. So that. Those are my first two concerts. And then I went to a few more. I went to evanescence since. And maroon 5. God, what's wrong with Evanescence? They're great. Emily is amazing.
Monet X Change
She's a great singer.
Bob the Drag Queen
I saw Emily at the Amphitheater in Atlanta, Georgia, and she's. I mean, Evane. The whole band is just. And who opened for them? Who's the guy that used to sing on the. The. There's like a guy on a band that used to see. She was dating a guy from a popular band, and he's. He's the one that sing. He's the one that's always rapping on the songs. He's like, wake me up. It's him.
Monet X Change
Got it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I can't wake up. Save.
Monet X Change
You ever been to a Vegas residency?
Bob the Drag Queen
Paul McCoy.
Monet X Change
Paul McCoy.
Bob the Drag Queen
What band was he in? Paul McCoy? Oh, I don't know what he was in with the Papa Roach? No, probably. Anyway, Vegas. I went to go see Whoopi Goldberg in Vegas. Can I, Can I?
Monet X Change
I, I. I'm just listening.
Bob the Drag Queen
I went to see Whoopi Goldberg in Las Vegas. I saw Monique. I saw Monique in Las Vegas. I saw the drag review before Drag Race.
Monet X Change
The drag review.
Bob the Drag Queen
The one that.
Monet X Change
Oh, with all the. They're doing all The Personations.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. And then I saw Drag Race.
Monet X Change
Yeah. I haven't seen. I've never seen a Vegas show ever. I didn't see the Live, which I wanted to go see. I just schedules. It just never worked out. Which I'm really upset because I missed Naomi, who was. I would really love to see her in it.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know, Drag Race unhoused. The. The Osmonds.
Monet X Change
Oh, really? The Osmond.
Bob the Drag Queen
They didn't unhouse.
Monet X Change
Yeah, Donny Osmond is still there because I saw his.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, but they used to be at. They used to be at the Flamingo and now they've moved tomorrow theater.
Monet X Change
Did you see India Ferris? I had to read it for y', all, girl.
Bob the Drag Queen
She never had heard this.
Monet X Change
So India Farah posted a picture of her in her Vegas. In her Drag Race Vegas promo picture with her caption TBT to when I was posted all over the Flamingos, Vegas Casino. Going to countless rehearsals, spending over $3,000 of my own money on making and ordering brand new costumes, and never even hearing a word back from anyone. But it was made clear from the start that the Vegas local gals were just fill ins. Laughing face emoji. Laughing face emoji. Hashtag. Love that.
Bob the Drag Queen
But if you know that you're an understudy from the beginning, how is that shady?
Monet X Change
That's what I'm saying.
Bob the Drag Queen
But also, all the Vegas girls are not fill ins because Derrick Berry was fully cast. Like, Derrick Berry was like. She's a very local girl. Everyone knows Derrick Berry is from Vegas and she was like in the cast.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I think.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think you were a fill in.
Monet X Change
She were a fill in. But there's nothing wrong with that. Yeah. In any Broadway show, Vegas show you have, because there's. They account for people being.
Bob the Drag Queen
The term is really understudy.
Monet X Change
Understudy. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Or swing.
Monet X Change
Yeah. I don't know why I said, well, this.
Bob the Drag Queen
When she said filling.
Monet X Change
Yeah. She's a swing. So every Broadway show you've seen, there are swings. Probably most Vegas shows because they account for people being sick. Coronavirus, et cetera. I know Kahan Montrese was a swing. Coco Montrese was a swing. And probably India was. And maybe they didn't use that a lot because this bitch got a nasty attitude.
Bob the Drag Queen
They probably didn't use her because the girl she was swinging for never got sick.
Monet X Change
Never did. Which is maybe Asia or someone. Cause I've never seen Asia post. She's missed a show.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, Asia missed the show because Coco filled in for her. Asia filled in for Derek. And those are her trash, Asia. Because Derek is an impersonator and Coco is an impersonator, too.
Monet X Change
Oh, okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
And she filled in for Asia as a host one time.
Monet X Change
Cameron Michaels. Look like she don't ever miss work.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, maybe she was filling in for Cameron. Oh, Backflips McGee.
Monet X Change
Cameron is Backflips.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, but the cartwheels into the splits things.
Monet X Change
That's a matter of fact.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I said, okay. I said, yes, you caught me. Not a backflip. But she does the cartwheels with the splits. Yeah.
Monet X Change
You know what's so funny? Bob does this thing when Bob will get me on the tiniest semantic that has ever existed. And the second I do that. Okay, Monet, you got it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, Monet.
Monet X Change
Yeah. You're happy.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't think I do. All that said, okay, you got me. I think the difference is I'll get you on somebody and you will argue that you're right, knowing you're wrong until we are both blue in the face and I go, okay, you got me. That's the difference. I'll go, you know what? I was wrong. Monet would be like, Monet will tooth and nail, clawing, swearing she's right, knowing she wrong.
Monet X Change
Have you ever been to a famous celebrity concert and, like, they brought you backstage?
Bob the Drag Queen
I got brought backstage when I went to go see John Mulaney, and, oh, he knows you. I mean, kind of John Mulaney and what's his name? Nick Kroll. They did a Broadway show called oh, hello, Broadway, Old Guys. Yeah, it was called oh, yeah, oh, hello, Broadway. I was also kind of in the show.
Monet X Change
Were you? Oh, you were a guest.
Narrator/Advertiser
They had.
Bob the Drag Queen
They do a podcast in the show, and I was their guest for the podcast.
Monet X Change
That's a great idea. Bitch. They had so many episodes. Bitch. Can we get a Broadway residency?
Bob the Drag Queen
It wasn't a real podcast.
Monet X Change
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Their characters have a podcast, but they don't actually have a podcast.
Monet X Change
Shouldn't be the real. That sounds like a really easy way to just get a lot of episodes.
Bob the Drag Queen
It also. I mean, it's also not an hour. I think you're. You're the. The guest part is like 15 minutes. If you want to see it, it's on my Facebook page. If you go back far enough, you can see it. Oh, is it really? Yeah, they actually clip the video and they send it to you. So the whole video. Honestly, I was so unprofessional because, like, there's no rehearsal. You just. You meet them backstage and they say, hey, we're just going to do this. This and this. And you go, and this. And they're just like. They're so funny. They're so funny. They're just cutting up the whole time. And I just couldn't stop laughing. It's just me laughing at them the whole time. And I'm trying to be serious, but they're just so funny. I couldn't keep it. And I got brought backstage at Ke$'s concert in Kansas City.
Monet X Change
Oh, yeah. You know, I'm supposed to do the ke$cruise, but I don't know about doing no cruises.
Bob the Drag Queen
I just. I just didn't do a cruise.
Monet X Change
It was really wild. I just don't think a cruise to me also, I heard so many bad. Right. Awful stories about cruises. People saying the food is bad.
Bob the Drag Queen
And like, the food is not that bad. The food is perfectly fine. There's actually some really good food on cruises. So there's. There's two. There's like multiple. There's like the buffet upstairs. And there's also just restaurants. And the food in the restaurants is actually much better. The food's not. Sound like it should probably all come
Monet X Change
from the same place.
Bob the Drag Queen
It.
Narrator/Advertiser
It.
Bob the Drag Queen
But this prepared. It's. It's really not. I think it's fun. What are you only eating the finest foods in the world. But I've been in your house where you ate Domino's and now you won't eat. Now you can only eat the fine finest. The finest of meats wins Drag Race once. Now look at you.
Monet X Change
My God. Anyway, I. All this to say we are civil rivalry is doing a motherfucking 34, 32.
Bob the Drag Queen
I didn't count them. But a several city tour. Mad city tour across the US and Canada.
Monet X Change
And Canada. So we're gonna be doing our own concert moment.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, we're doing. I stopped working on music and I'm like, I gotta release it before the tour.
Monet X Change
Yeah, me too. I have to answer a lot of press for sure. I know, but so on our tour. So when we first conceptualized our tour, we had like lip sync drag numbers and we had like. And that was our thing, but in us having our conversations together. And we think that it behooves us to do our own fucking music in our tour. Yeah, yeah. And like, not. And there's nothing wrong with lip syncing, but if we have our own stuff.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bitch, when they say, fuck lip syncing.
Monet X Change
Perform your own shit. You know what I mean?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I mean, I, you know, I've performed my music and I performed other people's music before and I think that just I mean, I will be. I think I'm a great rapper and stuff, but I just think there's just people who are better than me. I just want to do their music because it's just so fun and so exciting. Because their music is so. It really gets me going. And I don't know how much my fans know me for my music, which kind of scares me a little bit. The thought of going out and doing my music and people being like, what the fuck is this?
Monet X Change
You know what I mean? Sometimes I have seen concerts of my favorite people online, and they perform songs that I don't necessarily know. And I still am into it. Cause I love that artist so much.
Bob the Drag Queen
When I used to go to the concert with Michael, I didn't know any of these artists. And I would sit through. I didn't know any of their songs. I mean, not even their biggest hit. When the crowd went crazy, I was just sitting here like, all right, girl.
Monet X Change
Oh, I've been to Tori Kelly as well. I went to see a Tori Kelly concert. How was she? Tori was great. Tori is such a great singer. It was so good. And again, Tori doesn't have dances and shit. It's just her and her band on stage. And was at the Beacon Theater. Packed Beacon Theater. And one of. One of the coolest things she did was. I forgot what song it was. It was Hollow. Maybe it was City Dove. It was City Dove. And then she makes. It was one of those songs. Everyone takes out their phones and they put their flash on. And I was. Bitch. I bought good tickets. I was right in the front. Me and Chris Dunbar. And I was right in the front, and I looked back, and, like, the whole audience has these fucking lights and just going. Swaying back and forth. It's just. I can imagine being the artist seeing that. That's so fierce.
Bob the Drag Queen
Ginger Minj used to do that on the Christmas tour. She was saying, have herself a merry little Christmas. And they have. Everyone would pull their. She would tell everyone, put their phones out, and it. And I remember looking from the wing. It looked amazing.
Monet X Change
Oh, it's crazy. I'm like, this is so cool.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I think the coolest thing I've ever seen in a concert was when Madonna came from the ceiling at Barclays. And she's in a cage and, like, Mike Tyson's on the screen. You know her song Illuminati? No, she know everybody in this party shining like Illuminati. Anyway, so Mike Tyson's on the song. But I kind of just like talking. So you see the screen. It's like Mike Tyson comes up and. And then Madonna just comes down from this fucking cage. And it was just such a cool, like, entrance, like, from the ceiling. And also Amy Schumer opened for her.
Monet X Change
Oh. Oh, this is back before Amy Schumer was, like, huge. Huge.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, she was pretty big. This is like, I think when her show had maybe just got off the air, it was actually at Amy Schumer's, like, height, I think.
Monet X Change
And she opened for Madonna.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes, she did.
Monet X Change
And, you know, Amy Schumer is in history as the comedian, being a female comedian who sold. Who's only familial comedian who, like, sold out Madison Square Garden or something like that. Yeah, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, yeah, it was.
Monet X Change
It was massive.
Bob the Drag Queen
Amy Schumer, instead of having a. A musician, she had Amy Schumer. And when Madonna's concert starts, she plays Michael Jackson. She put, like, the music right before the concert. So Amy Schumer went off, they played like, some, like, just some music. And then right when the. The concert about to start, they just turn the music up louder and it's Michael Jackson, Jackson.
Monet X Change
I just got into Michael Jackson. Not just got into it. Like, I just.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I saw the other day we were doing our. Me and Monet were doing our promo shoot for a bomo, which is coming out. Everyone's like, is it. It is. It is.
Monet X Change
It is. We just did the promo.
Bob the Drag Queen
Honestly, Trixie, Kim, Willem, like, God bless you. The work going into making it is a lot.
Monet X Change
I. It is a lot of work.
Bob the Drag Queen
So that is why the palette is. It is on its way. We finally did the photo shoot and the video and everything. Anyway, anyway, when we were getting ready,
Monet X Change
I was playing Michael Jackson.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, you were putting. And I'm a big Michael Jackson fan. I love Michael Jackson.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was one of the kids who really loved Michael Jackson.
Monet X Change
I didn't grow up a big Michael Jackson fan. And in the past two months, I've just really gotten deep into his music. I'm like, wow, this is really good music. What song Bad is right now? Pyt. Victoria Kelly does a great cover of pyt. And then, I mean, Sweet Criminal. Smooth Criminal. Sorry, Smooth Gravity. A lot of the good ones, you've been hit by.
Bob the Drag Queen
You've been struck by smoke. Come on. Yeah, we will There will never be There will never be another.
Monet X Change
People used to pass out when Michael Jackson would perform. And also I was watching.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm gagging. Not from smell.
Monet X Change
I would. And I was, like, looking at. Watching videos of him doing the moonwalk, and I was like, oh, my God, that is crazy. Like, the moonwalk is a crazy thing.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I would love to go back and, and see Michael Jackson perform. That is a concert I would love, love, love to go back and see. You know, I think they recorded. The first time we ever did the moonwalk on camera was when he accepted an award. I can't remember the award. Can you go to this baby? He accepted some award and Ed seems like, thank you so much, I appreciate you all. And then he just like, just walked off the stage, but backwards. And people were like, what the fuck is going on? He's also one of the folks who really was able to take his impoverished upbringings and incorporate things from that into his drag or his.
Monet X Change
Like what?
Bob the Drag Queen
So, like the, the high water pants was because, like, oh, a lot of people couldn't afford to, like, they were wearing hand me downs or they couldn't afford to get new pants when they grew, when kids. So Michael Jackson would incorporate that being like, well, that was his look.
Monet X Change
That was his aesthetic.
Bob the Drag Queen
You can, you can also have high water pants and have it look good. Yeah, you can. You know, you can have white socks, which are cheaper, and wear them with black shoes. Yeah, you can. You, you and your brother, you and your sister can buy a pair of gloves. You can split it and you both have one glove. Like, it was all this stuff so that people who were like, really impoverished really could aspire to his level of fashion without breaking. That's why he wore white T shirts. He was wearing white T shirts, pants, and like black and then like white socks with black shoes.
Monet X Change
You know, people make fun of me. That's why I do. That's why I do my drag.
Bob the Drag Queen
All right, what's up?
Monet X Change
That's why I do my casual drag. How I. I wear sweaters and T shirts and like, to my. So my drag can be accessible. Yeah, accessible. So if you want to do that, you can do it too. You can be a fierce drag queen in a T shirt and a hoodie and a sweater on.
Bob the Drag Queen
If Monet's drag is anything, it is accessible. Fierce, stunning, beautiful and accessible.
Monet X Change

Monet X Change
You can do the worm?
Bob the Drag Queen
I haven't done it. I have not done the worm in a very. I don't even know if I can still do it, but I used to be able to do it very well. I used to be able to get air like I used to get air on the worm. Well, actually, I can find a clip of me in my twenties doing the worm at industry, and I used to wonder how to do the moonwalk.
Monet X Change

Southern people are incapable of doing things.

Also, you act like the Crip walk is from New York. I'm not saying that it's a West coast thing.

You're not from California.
Monet X Change
I'm just saying you're not Snoop Dog. Bloods were.

Monet X Change
I know the Crip walk is from California, but Bloods are predominantly on the West.
Bob the Drag Queen
We're not Talking about the Crip Walk. I'm not asking your ability to gang bang and sell drugs to your neighborhood. We're talking about your ability to do the Crip Walk. And the Crip Walk is from California.

I've never seen the original Beauty and Beast.
Bob the Drag Queen

Bob the Drag Queen
Mrs. Potts is British and she is pretty big there, but she is. I don't think a lot of British people know how mass. Like, she is a massive.
Monet X Change
Still, though, here. I wouldn't say still.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's. I mean, she's. She's. She's a big. Just. I don't think. Just because everyone doesn't know who she
Monet X Change
is, that doesn't mean.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't think your celebrity says. Didn't change that. But she is a massive celebrity.
Monet X Change
Like, for example, Frank Sinatra. Speaking of you. Oh, 1,000%. Frank Sinatra died however many decades ago, but he still, like, that is a. For the most. Not everywhere. For the most part.
Bob the Drag Queen
You feel where I'll be like, so and so is a big slave. You're like, is she not Beyonce? Okay. You're literally taking the most.
Monet X Change
But you said that just because someone
Bob the Drag Queen
is literally taking the most famous. Angel Lansbury is not dead.
Monet X Change
Oh, she's not. I think she's dead. How. You know Angel.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't think Angel Lansbury's dead. She's. I'm pretty sure she's alive.

Monet X Change
How old is she, Ben?
Narrator/Advertiser

Monet X Change
Tony for what?
Bob the Drag Queen
For. She's done a lot of Broadway stuff.
Monet X Change
Really?
Bob the Drag Queen
I think she's also hosted the Tonys more times than anyone.
Monet X Change
Angela Lansbury, the Motor she wrote.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm sorry, you don't know who the most. Audre McDonald. Excuse me.
Monet X Change
Audra McDonald. Is the.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is she the nominated or winning? Winning. Oh, yeah. Jacob has a Tony.
Monet X Change
Bobby's like, okay, she has a Tony at some point.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay. No, she. I think she hosted the most Tony's out of like anyone. Like she's. And she, of course, Murder She Wrote, which is a. Which was a massive show in the 80s and 90s. Of course, beauty and the Beast. I think all. I'm pretty sure she's in. Wait, who is mother? Who plays Mother Superior in Dialogue of the Carmelites. Sound of Music. No, I think she's Mother. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I think she's Mother Superior in Dial of the Carmelite. No, Sister of the Act.
Monet X Change
No, that's not Angela Lansbury.
Bob the Drag Queen
Who is Mother Superior and Sister Act.
Monet X Change
That's not. It's a. It's a. It's the lady from. It's Professor McGonagall, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
Sister Act.
Monet X Change
Oh, in the Broadway musical.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, it's Maggie Smith.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Maggie smith. Yeah. Professor McGonagall.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, I was wrong.
Monet X Change
Wow. Bob.
Bob the Drag Queen
But anyway, just because she's not as famous as friend. You do the thing where I mention someone and you. You'll be like, if they're not as famous as the most most famous. I be like, you know, Frank sn
Monet X Change
is not the most famous Frank.
Bob the Drag Queen
Frank Snatcher is the most famous jazz singer, like blues lounge singer of all time. That's who is. Who's more who of that kind of music. The Vegasy Lounge. There's no one Tony Bennett not more than Frank Sinatra.
Monet X Change
He's Michael Buble.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's not. Especially not Michael Booble.
Monet X Change
And.
Bob the Drag Queen
And if he watches. Michael Bouay would admit it. Michael Bouay would be like, I. Michael Boo Bay would be in the chat being like, I am not more famous than Frank Sonata.
Monet X Change
Well, that's cause he's humble.
Bob the Drag Queen
You don't know anything about Frankson. About Michael Buble.
Monet X Change
Michael. Are you kidding me? Michael Buble, Y' all are buddies? How.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know how humble he is. Y' all friends? Are you and Michael Buble friends?
Monet X Change
Michael Buble and I could come up with a lie.
Bob the Drag Queen
Come up with a lie. So Michael Buble has 2.8 million followers on Instagram.
Monet X Change
Frank Sinatra has.
Bob the Drag Queen
Frank Sinatra has 400,000.
Monet X Change
Thank you.
Bob the Drag Queen
He dead.
Monet X Change
Thank you point proven.
Bob the Drag Queen
That is enough.
Monet X Change
Michael Buble has 200 billion followers. Frank Sinatra has 400,000. That is.
Bob the Drag Queen
He has. He was. He died before Instagram even came out. You are. That's like saying your cousin who. Who writes plays because he has more followers on Instagram than Shakespeare. He is more popular than Shakespeare because he has more Instagram followers. I have more Instagram followers than Whoopi Goldberg. I'm not more famous than she is.
Monet X Change
That's debatable.
Bob the Drag Queen
You are ridiculous.
Monet X Change
Will you go to a concert with me? Would you go to a SZA concert with me?
Bob the Drag Queen
It depends on the concert. I don't. I don't love going to concerts.
Monet X Change
Okay, you went to were you little concerts?
Bob the Drag Queen
I have been to concerts, but I don't love going to concerts.
Monet X Change
Bob, you said for years you and your little friend went to concerts.
Bob the Drag Queen
You were up to concerts.
Monet X Change
You didn't even know the artist. Sza. You know her music.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, that was. I was. I was younger. I was more in. I. I had more of an ability to, like, stand up for a really long time. Standing in.
Monet X Change
Cues.
Bob the Drag Queen
Cues. I, I. Cues. I'm.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you talk about V. All right, love. Yeah, babes. I. I think my. My tolerance for that kind of stuff was. Was a lot higher back then. There's a lot of stuff I used to do back then that I don't do now. I mean, I don't love going to concerts. I think the last concert I went to was probably. It was ke$. And to be honest, these days, if I. If I. Oh, no, it was Cher.
Monet X Change
You want to see Cher?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Me and Jake went to go see Cher in Philadelphia.
Monet X Change
Work. Was it good?
Bob the Drag Queen
She was great. She was fantastic. And the truth is, if I can't get a VIP experience, I would just rather not go to concerts. So I would rather save up the money for, like, a VIP moment, which is why I don't go to a lot of concerts, because these VIP packages are very, very expensive.
Monet X Change
Well, that's a problem. Jasmin Sullivan. Jasmine Sullivan announced her tour. She has not been in tour in so long. People have been thirsting, dying for a Jasmine Sullivan tour. And as soon as the tour was announced, like, few people got to buy tickets, and scalpers bought all the tickets and hiked the price up from like $50 to, like $800. And there's nothing you can do about that, because when they do, like, there's nothing. There's no law stopping.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't think scalping is legal.
Monet X Change
It is.
Bob the Drag Queen
You can buy the Ticket. I don't think selling them again is legal. I don't.
Monet X Change
I don't think. I don't think.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, scalping's not legal.
Monet X Change
Maybe scalping is not the right word. But you can buy tickets and resell them. Yeah, and resell them, like, legally.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think scalping is efficient when you're like, outside.
Monet X Change
Outside. Yeah. So. But that's so shady because you're. You're cutting off access.
Bob the Drag Queen
Also, never buy tickets from scalpers, ever. And, you know, that's also why handling tickets are.
Monet X Change
Was expensive. Really?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Monet X Change
Hamilton. I. I've never seen Hamilton.
Bob the Drag Queen
I saw it in the uk and it is a very good play.
Monet X Change
Work.
Bob the Drag Queen
It is a very.
Monet X Change
Have you seen in America?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, this. Because the tickets are really, really hard to get still. Well, I don't know, but I. But I did see it on the West End and I was like, this is a brilliant show.
Monet X Change
I want to see six. I heard six is really good. The Six.
Narrator/Advertiser
Oh, the.
Bob the Drag Queen
The murderers.
Monet X Change
The murders of Henry. The.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, the wives of it. Beheaded. Bewetted. She died. Beheaded. Be wedded. Survived. The wives of King Henry viii. King Henry viii.
Monet X Change
You know.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know that. That thing. Beheaded. Be beheaded. Be wedded. She died. Beheaded. Be wedded. Survive. That's. That's how they all die. That's how they all stop being his wife.
Monet X Change
Yeah, they. Everyone says how great. How great of a musical is.
Bob the Drag Queen
It is like a girl group, right?
Monet X Change
Yeah, because it's like. Because it's like a. It's. It's. It is a musical, but it's more a format formatted, like a concert. So people.
Bob the Drag Queen
Did I see Hedwig? No, I watched it on YouTube.
Monet X Change
I haven't seen Hedwig. Oh, you did see Hedwig. You saw with Dexter.
Bob the Drag Queen
Did I?
Monet X Change
Yes, I saw. I saw. Oh, no.
Bob the Drag Queen
Domino was working Michael C. Hall. Domino was working backstage.
Monet X Change
Oh, yeah, Domino.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, no, I was there getting, like, my wigs, but I didn't actually watch the play because I was getting ready for Drag Race, so I didn't have time to stop and watch. I didn't have time to, like, watch plays.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know what you were doing in 2015, around the summer of 2015. But I was working.
Monet X Change
Working. Jacob. Jacob was in. Was in high school. Thank you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob was in college. Jacob was not in high school.
Monet X Change
Okay, well, you and I are gonna go to a sizzle concert. I've done things for you. You can do this with me.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay. I can't say that it was like a. A chore for Me, But I would have. But I will say that, like, if you're inviting me, Are you inviting me then? If you're inviting me.
Monet X Change
I'm not buying a ticket. Then you're buying your ticket.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's not an invitation. It is the invitation. But like, I think it's shady to invite people to stuff and then like, expect them to pay for it, depending
Monet X Change
on who you are. Okay, so if you have like a big birthday thing, you're inviting people, do you, you have to pay for the venue yourself.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, birthday is a different thing.
Monet X Change
You just said inviting people to something
Bob the Drag Queen
that's a birthday is a different thing. For example, if you invite me to your wedding, I don't expect to be paying for anything. When I come to your wedding, I'll pay for my tickets. I'll pay for my clothes. I'm not, I'm not buying the food. Your tickets, it to get wherever it is.
Monet X Change
Oh, I, I, I, I disagree. I think destination weddings are so selfish. I would not do that to people. I mean, I have destination weddings in like Fiji and I'm like, that's so rude.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't go to a lot of weddings. But what I'm saying is, if I go to your wedding, I'm not expecting to have to bust out my card to buy anything.
Monet X Change
Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, yeah. You better give a gift that's, that's worthy of that.
Bob the Drag Queen
The truth is I'm probably not coming to your wedding. Whoever you are. I mean, I've softened on the idea of going to weddings, but more than likely, more than likely, I'm not coming to your wedding.
Monet X Change
I gonna come to my wedding if I get married.
Bob the Drag Queen
Probably. But depending on how difficult you make it to get to the wedding, if you do some place as far away.
Monet X Change
I'm not doing it. I just said I don't like destination weddings.
Bob the Drag Queen
People's minds change. You don't know what little homeboy want.
Monet X Change
Who's gonna marry and Andy. No, Andy. Andy would not want to. We both agree that destination weddings are dumb.
Bob the Drag Queen
People have winnings already.
Monet X Change
I mean, just, you know, Jake, just
Bob the Drag Queen
talking about random shit in the bed. They early in our relationship.
Monet X Change
We're not talking about us getting married. We're just talking about in general. Like I'm going to a wedding with him in July as a date.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're going to date to a wedding? What is that weird? What is that?
Monet X Change
What are you, what are you doing? What is that weird hair?
Bob the Drag Queen
Moving back.
Monet X Change
You are so ridiculous.
Bob the Drag Queen
You start discussing children yet?
Monet X Change
What children?
Bob the Drag Queen
You discuss Children. No, you haven't said anything about children. I mean, you haven't said anything I
Monet X Change
have said in my life if I was to have a kid.
Bob the Drag Queen
So you have talked about children. You talk to Andy about children. You've never mentioned that. Anything about your desire to have kids. Andy. Yes, but you've talk. Andy, about your. How you have been dating. Oh, my gosh. That is.
Monet X Change
Bob, we're not saying we're doing this. We're just talking in conversations you have with your boyfriend.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, there's. It is a conversation. There's nothing wrong. There's nothing wrong.
Monet X Change
You acting like it's weird.
Bob the Drag Queen
This wild.
Monet X Change
You are so. I had to go. I had to go.
Bob the Drag Queen
Did you ever find out who Amla was?
Monet X Change

Bob the Drag Queen

Monet X Change

Bob the Drag Queen

Monet X Change

Bob the Drag Queen
Why can't you just Google it?
Monet X Change
