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: 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 Season 7 Coronation
By Lady Cocotte It had been sunny and humid for days. Then, on Monday, the sky opened and it poured. Of course it did! I had tickets to the RuPaul’s Drag Race Coronation across town. I gritted my teeth and headed into the wet. It’s all for drag. At least I don’t have to […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Grand Finale
By Lady Cocotte This is it, chickadees. The Grand Finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race ! Half the fun of the finale shows is seeing who is in the audience. Tyra Sanchez (S2), looking classy and graceful and not at all like she wants to wring my neck (you’ll understand if you’ve read my story about […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Countdown to the Crown
By Lady Cocotte This one is going to be short because I’m super busy getting ready for my trip to NYC and I don’t usually like these recap shows. I’m also heavily medicated (I’ve had really bad travel anxiety the past few years) so take everything I say with a grain of salt. RuPaul looks […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: And The Rest Is Drag
By Lady Cocotte The girls make their way into the workroom and you can tell they’re all genuinely upset about Katya leaving. Kennedy Davenport reads Katya’s message on the mirror: “Девочки! Я вас любитЬ! If you need me, you know where to find me. (The dumpster out back) XOXO Katya AKA The Brooke Hogan of […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Hello, Kitty Girls!
By Lady Cocotte Ginger Minj leads the girls back into the workroom, cursing the whole way. She just lip-synced for her life and sent Trixie Mattel home. The girls read Trixie’s message on the mirror: “WTF Just Happened?!? #GirlBye, Thx Pearl. Stay Plastic <3 Spoiler Alert Trixie Mattel Doesn’t Win LOL’” and Ginger is having […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Prancing Queens
By Lady Cocotte The girls enter the workroom in their ugly dress regalia. All that’s left of Miss Fame is her message on the mirror: ”Continue to inspire. You are incredible! I love you. FAME.” Violet Chachki moans that she’s going to miss Miss Fame and makes a stink face when the other girls don’t […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Divine Inspiration
Guest Blog By Lady Cocotte Jaidynn Diore Fierce is gone and no one seems to notice (“Stay Fierce! Werq that puss! I love you all xoxo Jaidynn Diore Fierce <3”).

RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Conjoined Queens
By Tamara Tattles Guest Blogger Lady Cocotte The Queens spend a few seconds mourning Max’s departure while Jaidynn Diore Fierce cleans her farewell message off the mirror (Stay kind. Stay gracious.

RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Snatch Game
By Guest Blogger Lady Cocotte Kandy Ho has sashayed away and all that’s left is her final message on the mirror: Everything happens 4 a reason, pero la vida continuo! Big things will come! Kandy Ho xoxo. Jaidynn Diore Fierce is clearly exhausted from being on the bottom, both mentally and physically. “I survived the […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Ru Hollywood Stories
By Lady Cocotte RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Ru Hollywood Stories As the girls head into the workroom, things feel different. For the first time in several episodes, no one was shocked at who went home. They read Mrs Kasha Davis’ goodbye message (“Love to the moon and back, MKD”) and Kandy shares an interesting theory. […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: The DESPY Awards
By Lady Cocotte RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: The DESPY Awards In the workroom, the girls are stunned by Pearl’s victory over Trixie Mattel. I don’t blame them. I’m still shocked myself. Pearl is “over” the judges. She clearly isn’t taking their words as constructive criticism. “I think I have great energy,” she declares. Lots of […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Spoof! (There It Is)
Guest Blog By Lady Cocoette We start with the girls entering the workroom after saying goodbye to Jasmine Masters. Her message on the mirror: “Best of luck ladies, love J Masters.” The girls feel a void left by Jasmine’s departure. For Kennedy Davenport it was a bittersweet win since they were friends. She gives […]

By: The Fabulous Lady Cocotte Once again, we start back at the RuPaul Drag Race workroom. Sasha Belle has sashayed away and everyone gets to read her message on the mirror: “Love you, mean it!
