By The Lady Cocotte Updated: VH1 originally scheduled the Ruveal as part of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars (which means it would be recorded if you have a series manager or pre-set) but they just made it it’s own special. I had to reset my DVR to record “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars: Exclusive Queen Ruveal.” […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Grand Finale
By The Lady Cocotte I can’t believe I’m about to watch Mamma Ru crown the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race. It feels like only yesterday the season nine girls made their way into the workroom (and our hearts). Even my therapist was surprised to hear the season was over so soon (yes, I talk […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Reunited
By The Lady Cocotte We’re one week away from crowning the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race so it’s time for the reunion show and I’m really excited to see some of the eliminated queens (hey Valentina, Eureka and Farrah!). Since the reunion was filmed recently, they’ve all had a chance to watch most of the […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Category Is…
By The Lady Cocotte This is it, Squirrel Friends. Tonight we find out who makes it into the top three of RuPaul’s Drag Race and the competition couldn’t be stiffer! First we have Sasha Velour, my personal favorite and the only remaining queen to never lip-sync for her life. She is creative, incredibly smart, […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Gayest Ball Ever
By The Lady Cocotte It’s the top five, bitches! The creme de la creme of RuPaul’s Drag Race. We’ve said a teary goodbye to some mighty fine queens along the way (and good riddance to a few stinkers) and now the crown is finally in sight. In all probability, tonight spells the end for Broadway […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Makeovers: Crew Better Work
Hi! It’s Tamara, I will be filling in for the fabulous The Lady Cocotte tonight as she actually has a life this holiday weekend. I am still UTTERLY DEVASTATED from last week and am dead serious when I say I am hoping that something happens where Valentina comes back this week. We start with the […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Your Pilot’s on Fire
By The Lady Cocotte After an unexpected two week hiatus, I’m back! Sure, I watched RuPaul’s Drag Race while AWOL but I have to admit, it wasn’t as much fun without your comments. And Tamara Tattles did such a good job recapping last week’s episode, I knew I had to reclaim my show before she […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: RuPaul Roast
Hey you guys, I am filling in for this episode of Drag Race. Sorry about the delay. Your usual recapper, the divine The Lady Cocotte had life get in the way last weekend, and I have been swamped and unable to get anything up on this episode myself. I am going to make this a […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Snatch Game
By The Lady Cocotte Well, life got in the way of my RuPaul’s Drag Race obsession this week. Unfortunately, it’s not because I’m at DragCon. Nope. While the rest of my friends are knee deep in drag, I’m stuck at home being an adult. I’m not happy about it. At all. I guess I’ll […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Reality Stars, The Musical
By The Lady Cocotte If there’s one thing I can count on, it’s RuPaul’s passion for self-promotion. How else do you explain tonight’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race? Or, as it’s become known on social media, the Kardashian episode. No, VH1 didn’t splurge on K-family judges (although Khloe faced-off with Bianca Del Rio in season […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Good Morning Bitches
By The Lady Cocotte I didn’t even realize it but I’ve been avoiding tonight’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Cleaned the fish tank. Put away laundry. Played with the dog. Everything but watch my favorite show. What’s up with that? You know how seriously I take drag. It cheers me up when I’m down and […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Draggily Ever After
By The Lady Cocotte After last week’s uneven episode, I’m counting on the drag gods to bring me a great evening of RuPaul’s Drag Race. It’s not too much to ask. I mean, I certainly worship at the altar of drag. I see live shows. I buy the merch. I talk about it all the […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: She Done Already Done Brought It On
By The Lady Cocotte Here we are again. It’s time for RuPaul’s Drag Race! I’ve been waiting for this moment all week. The websphere has been all agog about who’s returning so let’s waste no time and jump right in. The “Previously On” montage morphs so quickly into the new episode I almost missed it. […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Oh. My. Gaga!
By The Lady Cocotte I had a lot to accomplish today but while I was busy adulting, all I could think was, “Drag Race, Drag Race, Drag Race…” Yeah, I have a little addiction to RuPaul’s Drag Race. I’ve accepted it. Feathers, glitter, paillettes. Reading, rivalries, RuPaul. And the sisterhood, always the sisterhood. I love […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Returns Friday on VH1
By The Lady Cocotte Can you feel some extra glamour in the air? Are you reconnecting with your charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent? That’s because RuPaul’s Drag Race is back! And they’re moving up to the big leagues. That’s right. After testing out the waters during All Stars, Drag Race is officially moving to Logo’s […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Grand Finale: A Winner is Crowned!
By The Lady Cocotte All of the wigs and makeup, challenges and lip-syncs, breakdowns and breakthroughs have led us to one thing. It’s time to crown the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race, season eight! Will it be the consummate professional Bob the Drag Queen? She slayed every challenge she faced, made us laugh and made […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: The Realness
By Contributing Writer, The Lady Cocotte Well, it’s here squirrel friends: the last challenge before the finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race season 8. There have been some ups and some downs but thankfully Mama Ru and World of Wonder wrangled the show back on track after the debacle of season 7. It’s an unexpected top […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race recap: Book Ball
It’s time for another exciting episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race! I didn’t really enjoy last week. It might have been because I was sick. It might have been because my girl Thorgy Thor was eliminated. Or it might have been because it was a bad episode (I’ve found this season a bit inconsistent). But hope […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Shady Politics
By Contributing Writer, The Lady Cocotte Sorry I’m a little late with this week’s RuPaul’s Drag Race recap. The Spring flu got me and replaced all of my snark with fluffy cotton balls. I feel like the Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz (which would have been much more fitting last week). “If I only had […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race recap: Wizards of Drag
By Contributing Writer Lady Cocotte After last week’s disappointing Snatch Game, I’m praying things turn around on RuPaul’s Drag Race. I still have PTSD from season seven so any dip in quality scares me… Come through, Mama Ru! Seriously, I’m begging you. Come through. Just to rub salt in our wounds, we start with Acid […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Supermodel Snatch Game
By Contributing Writer, Lady Cocotte This week brings my favorite episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race: Snatch Game! It’s not an easy task. Stars have been made on Snatch Game but just as many have faltered. Let’s see who survives the ultimate gauntlet of drag! But before we start the fun, we have to revisit […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race recap: New Wave Queens
By Contributing Writer, The Lady Cocotte I’m always excited for a new episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race but, to be entirely honest with you, I’m still broken up about last week’s elimination of Cynthia Lee Fontaine. That crazy cucu queen really put a spell on me. And I’m not alone. The other queens seem sad […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: RuCo’s Empire
By Contributing Writer, Lady Cocotte There has been a lot of anticipation for tonight’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Last week RuPaul eliminated Dax Exclamationpoint AND Laila McQueen. It’s only the second time in Drag Race history that both bottom queens have sashayed away. And to make things even more exciting, RuPaul phoned a mystery queen […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Bitch Perfect
By Contributing Writer Lady Cocotte I’m a little nervous for tonight’s RuPaul’s Drag Race. I really like all of the queens left and I can’t imagine any of them getting eliminated. But it’s time to bite the bullet and face the music. The show must go on. As usual, we start out with […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Keeping It 100
By Contributing Writer, Lady Cocotte Hello, squirrel friends! It’s that time again. Season 8 of RuPaul’s Drag Race is finally here and I’m losing my mind! Please be good again, please be good again, please be good again. I think the drag gods heard our cries. Backtrack the revamp. We like our Drag Race […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Meet the Queens of Season 8
By Guest Contributor The Lady Cocotte It’s been a cold winter so I’m ready to be chained back to the Tamara Tattles radiator. Luckily I won’t be bored since they’ve announced the queens of RuPaul’s Drag Race season 8 (premiering March 7 on Logo TV). After a somewhat disappointing season 7, Mama Ru went back […]
