The glitter has settled, the duct tape has been swept off the floor and Rupaul’s Drag Race season 1 has come to an end. And what a season it was. I remember reading about this show and I thought to myself: Now this is what the world needs! Did the show deliver? YES! Did it entertain? YES! Did we learn that Cazwell & Mike Ruiz are SO FUCKING HOT? HELL -TO- THA- YES!
I’m kinda sad to see this season come to an end cos I feel like I got to know some of the girls on the show. But all good things must come to an end. A winner was crowned and it was none other that the exotic African, crazy faced, Queen Bebe Benet. I think that it was obvious she was going to win but the one that SHOULD HAVE won was the tran-tastic Nina Flowers. Nina is the MOST talented person on any fucking reality show in a long time. Not only is she talented pero es latino asi que, es lo mejor que hay! Yep, to me Nina represents everything drag should be right now. Pushing limits, being beautiful, sexy and GLAM, but not in your traditional, typical, lip syncing drag kind of way. I know that many people were pulling (no pun, intended) for Nina but at the end of the day Ru made his choice and while I know it was a great choice, I still feel the need to point out that just because someone is wearing a crown doesn’t necessarily make her a queen. Oh! SNAP!
The last episode was all nice and dandy and Bebe went into the last judging looking like this:
Bebe looked klassy and very pulled together which is saying a lot cos when she was doing her music video shoot she looked like she had just escaped the crazy ho’s house. She looked a right mess. Thank goodness she took care of that “situation”.
Now we move on to Nina. This girl can do no wrong in my book. LOVES IT!
Nina looked like she could kick some serious ass, yet at the same time she looked delicate. I LOVED the red mohawk. She looked flawless and every inch of this look was studied and achieved.
Last and of course least, we take a look at this broke-ass tranny that obviously did not get the memo that hooker pilgrim shoes HAVE not made a comeback, we take a look at the mess that was Rebecca Glasscock.
Those SHOES! I mean what the fuck was this poor lost soul thinking? The dress looks like the inside of a coffin and the hair is something not even Stacey Q , in her heyday, could have gotten away with. This was all kinds of wrong and I got such pleasure to this this bitch GO HOME. She on the other hand…. NOT SO MUCH.
I’m happy for the winner and I hope to see this show go on for a 2nd season cos lord knows we need some laughter right now with all this credit crunch crap.
The last episode was good, but the RE-UNION was even better with so much catty attitude that Ru lays down the law and gives it to all THEM BITCHES! More on that tomorrow!
