RuPaul’s Drag Race

RuPaul's Drag Race - RuPaul Season One This is part of my unedited thoughts series.  8/10

Going into this, I didn’t know much about the show. All I knew was the vibe – it was about drag queens. Yes, I know I must be living under a rock.

I’ve never been a huge fan of the drag scene. Just didn’t interest me. So because of all of this, I wasn’t expecting much.

It was much more interesting than I expected.

The challenges were exciting to watch and were varried. Rather than just dress up in a different outfit.

There is one episode where the challenge is to read the news and then do an interview. It is brilliant. Fantastic tv!

The end of every episode ends with the bottom two contestants competing in a lipstick battle.

This is just hilarious some of the stuff that happens during these battles. What I think is great about these battles and the rest of the show is how RuPaul runs it.

She doesn’t take it too seriously. She takes it just seriously enough. This tone is so important because I think the show would be farcical if taken too seriously.

I agree with the winner. She was just next level compared to the rest of the contestants. As the judges kept saying from very early on she could take up RuPaul’s mantle immediately.

Now that I have experienced what drag race is they will have to do something different next season to keep me interested.
