Fox hopes third time’s a charm with Rent: Live (Sunday, January 27 at 8pm). Hot on the heels of the mildly successful Grease: Live (2016) and poorly received A Christmas Story Live! (2017), tonight’s telecast is based on the Broadway tour de force celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. A re-imagining of Puccini’s “La Bohème,” […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 3 Exclusive Queen Ruveal Special on VH1 Friday, October 20
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: 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: 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 All Stars: A Queen Is Crowned!
By The Lady Cocotte It’s the finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars! This season went by too quickly for my taste but RuPaul is ready to crown a winner (and whatever Mama Ru wants, Mama Ru gets). I’m still feeling a little traumatized from Alaska Thunderfuck’s massive meltdown last week so I’m not sure […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars: Family That Drags Together
By The Lady Cocotte Last week we had a lovely episode of RuPaul’s Best Friends Race, All Stars edition. With this season’s villain gone baby gone, all the girls were loving and supportive of each other. It was all unicorns and glitter, disco balls and cotton candy. Or it was until an undercover snake […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars: Drag Fish Tank
After last week’s highly emotional RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars, I’m ready to put the Phi Phi situation to bed. But first, we have to check in with the girls and get their reactions to her elimination. She uses her message on the mirror (“I wanted to avoid hugs because of tears! LOVE […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars: Revenge of the Queens
By The Lady Cocotte This week RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars doesn’t mess around. We’re right back in the middle of Phi Phi O’Hara’s rant about Alyssa Edwards when the four evicted queens show up in the mirror. Now, production originally planned huge drama from the shock of seeing the supposedly eliminated queens back in […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Recap: Drag Movie Shequels
By Contributing Writer The Lady Cocotte Have you recovered from last week’s controversial elimination of Ginger Minj on RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars? Well, the contestants haven’t. Before Alyssa Edwards cleans Ginger’s message off the mirror (If men can look this good, there’s no excuse for ugly women! ♡ The Minj), she tries […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Recap: HERstory of the World
By The Lady Cocotte RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars is back following last week’s surprising tap out (Adore Delano) and mostly disappointing Snatch Game. Hopefully the queens can recover from all of the drama and bring us a HERstory-making episode tonight. As Alaska wipes off Tatianna’s message on the mirror (Thank You! ♡ Tati) […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Recap: Snatch Game
By The Lady Cocotte After a pretty phenomenal premiere last week, RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars is back with a super-sized Snatch Game episode. All. Stars. Snatch. Game. The best of the best in my favorite challenge of the season? Yes, please! But before we can have too much fun, we have to revisit […]
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Recap: All Stars Talent Show Extravaganza
By The Lady Cocotte It’s time to put on makeup, it’s time to dress up right, it’s time to raise the curtain on RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars tonight… The girls have been in serious lockdown so they don’t know who they’re competing against. They’ve heard rumors but they won’t know who else […]
(Re)Introducing the Cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 2, A Herstory Lesson: Part Two
By The Lady Cocotte Hieeee! Are you ready for the new season of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars? I hope so because it starts this Thursday! Last week I talked about the not so successful herstory of All Stars 1. Well, RuPaul has made some big changes this season. The team aspect is gone […]

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.

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 […]

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!

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 […]
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 […]
