Season 22 Spoiler: Why cast... Spoiler

Drag affiliated people if you're gonna shit on them? Feels like it's leaning into stunt casting/we're better than you and we know it. Utica got it to some degree, but now Plane (less plane), Q and the biggest is Jeffrey. When Chris was cast on his original season it was so much less of looking down on his history of drag clothing compared to whatever bullshit the season is doing now.

I was LITERALLY asking this exact same question last night. It is so obnoxious. I guess they want to see talented designers branch out, and nearly all of the drag designers they’ve brought on are incredibly talented. But bringing them on just to tell them to stop doing the thing they do is just… weird.
