I thought Blu's chat about how drag made her lose confidence in being a man and being out of drag really interesting. I can imagine it's pretty hard to square all the adoration and confidence you get from being in drag, to taking it all off and being an ordinary man again. I'm sure that's actually really common with successful drag performers (Cheryl seemed to have experienced exactly the same feeling). I can even see why Blu might have felt confused and drawn towards living as a woman full time. What bothers me, as a 40+ woman and mother, is the constant messages that society, and last night's Drag Race, sends out to young people: that instead of just being yourself unapologetically, being gender non-conforming and owning it, you have to label yourself with untruths like "I am neither male nor female". It's not progressive, it's the opposite.
I'm sure I'll get plenty of angry emojis and told to get out of the thread, but I already ditched Drag Race several seasons ago and only came back to this season because I enjoyed DRUK1
Didn't enjoy last's night's episode though so I think I'm done.
I don’t know if it’s arrogance, over confidence or if Baga Chipz doesn’t actually want to be there. I get the impression she’s just like “I cba”
I think Baga Chipz is only interested in getting Baga Chipz' face on telly again. I mean, props to her for being so successful and making so much money, but her disinterest in the show is pretty obvious. Her looks and make up have always been pretty busted, and she's funny but not THAT funny. Her confessionals are so one note.
