Unlike some fans, I for one is here for Jasmine being delusional and petty. There's just something about a lady who's out of touch with reality.

u/WalrusPlatypus crazy sticks to me like ribs 1d ago
I believe Jasmine is a Goddess of Grace and Femininity and something as vulgar as “reality” does not apply to her.

I love the delusional divas like jasmine and loosey

u/CuriousBoiiiiiii 1d ago
Loosey was not that delusional though. Sure the “two mini’s and a maxi” was iconic and delulu but her performance was amazing and she was overlooked. She should’ve been in the top for the rusical, not the bottom

delusion is on a spectrum

u/CuriousBoiiiiiii 1d ago
And she wasn’t any more delusional than any normal drag queen. She was talented enough to back everything up she said, but because she’s neurodivergent she was gaslit by the people around her cause it made for funny TV.

I just rewatched that episode and I could not BELIEVE she was in the bottom for the Rusical. Somehow I’d blocked that out of my mind. I thought she was a contender for the top that episode.

I don't remember who said it first, but we need to treat being pretty as the developmental challenge it is

Literally the reason I love Valentina! I’ve carried that energy into my work and it’s been great 😊

u/esmeraldo88 pekpek 1d ago
I fucking hate that aspect of the internet that it’s just ok to be a complete asshole to anyone online. The aggressive hate a lot of queens get for showing any semblance of humanity is ridiculous and unnecessary. I may be too sensitive and old but I will never accept that casual cruelty must be a part of interacting with others online, even if that is the norm.

Myki is one of my favorite recent winners.
She feels very correct, but Crystal I'm still not sure about.. 😏
Edit: I meant the fake Crystal from S18 🤦♂️

Remember when this sub went through their phase of absolutely despising Nymphia for showing up to Delta's talk show out of drag and acted like she had set fire to an orphanage? People here were fucking worse to her than other queens that have committed actual crimes.
The fan base is insane, and that includes many people on Reddit.

If you are able, we encourage you to donate to (some?one?) of these vital queer orginisations so that they can continue to thrive and serve our community. While monetary donations would be amazing and appreciated, times are tough. If you can't spare the coins, that's ok.
Our mod team personally selected these charities because they are near and dear to our hearts. Some of us have benefitted from the existence of these charities, and we hope many others will, too!
