America's Next Drag Superstar Is.....

Season 7 of Rupaul's Drag Race was full of backwards twists and a weird amount of group challenges (which i didn't like...please go back to the individual challenges, THANKS.). This season, we saw Pearl have a stare down with Rupaul, Katya had a break through, Miss Fame clucked like a chicken, and Trixie Mattel lost twice...(which I'm still really angry about I'm not going to lie)! But who will walk away with the crown? I really don't know, but I have a winner in mind that I really feel I connected to the most this season. 

First, let's go over my opinion of all 3 girls.

Pearl represents strength to me. She's relaxed and laid back but she's been through a whole spectrum of pain and doubt and I can tell she is really passionate about drag and she knows her style very well. She grew a lot on the show and is probably the most beloved contestant this season next to a couple of the other girls.

Violet is someone I relate to on a whole different level and let me say why. It's not necessarily her confidence that hits home for me, it's the fact that she says what she's thinking even if people think she's being rude. We're both the same age and I really relate to Violet's personality. Honesty is always the best way to go. She had her moments this season with her confidence going to her head, but let's face it, we watched every week to see what Violet was going to pull out for those runways. She was never in the bottom two, and if she knew she wasn't good at something, she still worked it out to the best of her ability.

Ginger Minj is very underrated I feel because people think for some reason she doesn't belong in the top 3 this season. People can say what they want, but she earned her spot. It's funny because I thought she was going to be like the motherly figure this season because I wasn't familiar with her personality but...boy...was I wrong! She had me laughing all season with her snide remarks and quick witted comments and her Snatch Game was hilarious! She doesn't know how to sew but in the Hello Kitty sewing challenge she really worked it out and brought it. So Ginger deserves her spot. Be nice.

I love all 3 of these girls so much but there can only be one winner so let the opinions begin!

Based on this whole season, I feel like it's going to be really close but my heart truly belongs to Violet Chachki. Not just because I relate to her...although that's part of it...but I feel like her overall attitude towards challenges that were thrown her way really just spoke for itself. Whenever she wasn't comfortable with a challenge, she still went out there and tried to the best of her ability and either won the challenge or was safe. She was never in the bottom two. She's very put together and knows the image she wants to portray when it comes to her style. Her runways always left me absolutely speechless and she knows how to demand a room. 

As much as I love Ginger and Pearl, and I think both of them have grown and earned their spots, my heart is dominated by Violet and I really think she deserves this win. 

Rupaul's Drag Race WISH-LIST

So I decided to put together a list of queens who I think would do well on Rupaul's Drag Race based on what I see by following them. This is going to be a bit tough for me because my free time is nothing but promoting drag artists and showcasing them so please don't get offended. Here it goes. (This list is just my top picks and it doesn't mean these artists are auditioning-although some of them are.) Also, there's more than 14 here. I'm aware. ;)

James Majesty: James is an absolute force to be reckoned with. Lots of performers are just pretty but I have always had a love for the more artsy people in the competition because I feel like they're the full package. I can't help but admire the variety of looks she can put together. 

BibleGirl666: I worship BibleGirl. Pun intended. Every time I watch a performance of hers, she takes me to church. Literally. I love her character onstage and I love everything from the fan blowing her blonde hair to quirky sense of humor.

Aurora Gozmic: If Aurora's attitude was food, she would have food to feed the whole entire world. I'm saying this in a good way. She's really come into her own in the past year and I feel she would learn a lot from the experience of Drag Race.

Discord Addams: Discord's ideas are absolutely brilliant and out of the box. I feel like with her on the show, you would never really know what to expect. She has the power to take an idea and run with it and execute it well.

Eve Summers: Eve hasn't even been doing drag for too long and she has the look and attitude of someone who has been doing it for years. I feel like she could learn but also work really well under pressure. She seems calm, cool, and collected.

Tatiana Rexia: Tatiana would be the spooky queen. And not in a Sharon Needles way either- so don't say she's trying to copy Sharon. Tatiana is very independent and strong willed and I feel she would fight her way to the top without a question. If she won, she would use her platform for good things such as giving back. :)

Kaotica Divine: oh my goodness...where do I begin? Kaotica is absolutely beyond anything I've ever seen. I remember watching a performance video of hers and I don't even remember how I stumbled upon it whatsoever...but Kaotica takes you to a whole other dimension. Full of energy and the bitch literally PAINTS her face.

Lucky Madison: Ms Lucky is on this list because I truly believe her intentions are genuine and I know she really wants it. I know she's auditioning and I see lots of people throwing hateful words at her lately and I just really believe in her and want her on the show so that she can show what she has to offer.

Jayy Von Monroe: I know Jayy isn't auditioning this next season but that doesn't mean he wouldn't ever audition period. I've been a follower of his for years and I had the pleasure of interviewing him and I feel like he has the personality and performance experience to carry him through since he's been in a band all these years and knows how to keep people attentive. 

Arabia Felix: Arabia can't audition this season due to living in Kuwait. I feel like even if she never auditions, she will still have a huge following because I know she's fierce and I'm not saying that just because she's my drag mother...I'm saying it because I know it just as much as everyone else that she would completely slay that competition.

Chloe Knox: Chloe is pretty young yet but she has very quick wit and I enjoy her style along with her over the top makeup. I feel she would be good tv because she is really quick with insult comedy and sarcasm and I love that about her. 

Ironica Leigh: Ironica is constantly throwing shade and I feel like she would do really well in the comedy challenges and I'm really interested to see what she would put together for the snatch game.

Cupcake Canne: Well we will start with the obvious- Cupcake is absolutely STUNNING. She seems very well put together and patient and open minded. So even if she does get critiques for something (not sure what it would be) but I feel she would take it all in without getting too upset over it. She's just a very well rounded queen.

Melissa Befierce: Melissa is a straight up performer. Period. End of story. I don't know if she would ever audition for the show because I don't know her feelings on that but she is a performer in every sense of the word and if she ever did get on, she would deserve every win she gets. 

Veronica Pop: I've really enjoyed watching Veronica grow since I started following her. I think the reason I want her on the show so bad is because there's just something about her that screams STAR QUALITY. She's just an all around fun performer and I could even just listen to her talk for hours. 

Yolandii Fizzure: I just added Yolandii on facebook not too long ago and there's just an element of mystery to her that I can't point my finger on but I just really want to learn more. 

Ari Ola: All I can say is Ari Ola is the full package. She is kind, hilarious, a wonderful performer, and uses her performances for good. She could do a performance and move you to tears and it takes a special type of person to do that. She's an advocate for social change and I feel if she won the competition she would use it to help other people.

Anaol: It's hard for me to remember that she dropped that last name. Anyways, Anaol has never been boring to me. I'm always interested in what she has to offer and what she has to say. I need more of her in my life.

Skarlet Starlet: GIRL. Skarlet is a southern belle and everything about her is ON POINT. She has that loud personality that just makes you fall in love with her and she can make you laugh without even trying to. She's another one where I'm just entertained by listening to her talk. 

Diana Dzhaketov: Diana is another person who has the full package. Believe it or not it's possible to be really pretty and extremely funny all at once. I fell like if she did make it on she would be the underdog and make it really far.

Dakota D'Vil: I know there's some people who might disagree with me but I would really love if Dakota did the show because I love her performances and I feel she could work under pressure and just do what she had to do to win. I just adore her. 

Sissy Spastik: I put Sissy on this list because I feel she's very versatile and she could do anything. Even with her looks, you never really know what she's going to pull out and I love the unpredictability of her drag.

Crystal Mess: Very down to earth, very genuine, very well rounded. Her style is pretty interesting too and I just want to see more.

Meth: I know Meth is from the UK but if this show expands itself I would pretty much freak if Meth got on just because she makes me laugh and her style is absolutely wicked.

Rhea Litre: Either you love Rhea or you hate her and in my case I can't get enough of her. Although I feel like she won't audition, that doesn't stop my urges to see her on the show. Everywhere I turn on social media, Rhea is there...on almost everyone's pages in selfies and whatnot and she has a huge following already.

Cake Moss: She has told me before she's not going to audition anymore and she doesn't need the show because she's doing well on her own but my wish list wouldn't be complete without her because there's no denying she's talented and I feel like she could school some bitches.

Tatiana Mala-Niña: This queen definitely needs to be on my list because even if she isn't auditioning I feel she will still go really far just on her own. 

Noodles: I feel like if you have your own makeup look and you still can learn how to do other queen's faces as well on your face, you're an artist. I would LOVE to see Noodles on a future season of Drag Race because I know she's capable of doing well.

Giselle Dijon: Giselle is absolutely hilarious and I feel it won't be long until she breaks out. She's got the talent to keep people entertained and I feel she's only going to get better. 

Kim Chi: If you don't know Kim Chi, you really need to get out from under that rock you've been under. Kim Chi gives me life. 

Trannika Rex: Drag Race needs some life, and Trannika would be the perfect person to stir it up a bit. I don't know how she comes up with half her jokes but I love her. 

I was going to put Vicky Vox and Miss Coco Peru on here but I feel they don't need the show and I don't think they're ever going to audition. I'm perfectly okay with that because they're absolutely amazing on their own.

RUPAUL'S DRAG RACE SEASON 7 CAST REVIEW

I know I try to separate myself from Rupaul's Drag Race because I feel that a lot of other artists are misunderstood and underestimated, and I plan to keep it that way, but seeing all these posts about Season 7, I'm getting the urge to write a review of what I think of each queen individually. Let's start with the queen I know the best considering she performs an hour away from my house.

1. Trixie Mattel

I am absolutely IN LOVE with Trixie. When I started getting into the drag scene and the clubs around me I did research to find out who my more local queens are and I found Trixie. I've been following her for almost a year already and I'm so excited she's on this season. I feel like she brings a special twist to the stereotypical cast and she's so campy and fun. I feel like a lot of people are underestimating her and usually the underestimated ones are the ones who get the farthest. Fingers crossed for Trixie. Bless her plastic heart. :)

2. Jaidynn Diore Fierce

Oooo girl! This one has the capability to put a bitch in her place and do it with honesty and class! She's really spunky and full of energy, I can't help but love her. She reminds me of an extremely energetic and sassy Latrice Royale. Get it girl! If she goes home early I will be insanely disappointed. GIVE ME MORE!

3. Miss Fame

I cannot get enough of Miss Fame and her flawless appearance. Sometimes I wonder if she's even human or if she's a robot disguised in flawless porcelain skin. I've gotten to know Miss Fame from her well known YouTube tutorials on how to beat that face. She was in high demand to be on Drag Race and now I really hope she makes it far, because that bitch is really talented and I feel she will slay!

4. Pearl

Everyone should know who Pearl is and if you don't, you've been living under a rock. Pearl has been everywhere in the online drag scene. I found her through another queen named BibleGirl666 (I love you Bible Girl. That was a shameless shoutout). Miss Pearl is an icon who has a really chill and relaxed personality but I see her reading bitches if it needs to be done. I have high hopes for this one and she has the potential to outshine anyone who crosses her. :)

5. Sasha Belle

All I can say when I think of Ms Sasha Belle is YAASSSSSS. She's proven that she's extremely versatile and you never really know what she's going to pull out. She's another one who I have high hopes for and I can't express enough how much I admire her work. She even does these Facebook videos where she has impersonated some of the other Season 7 cast members and she's extremely funny.

6. Max Malanaphy

I've been following Max for a few months on social media. I've heard a lot of people comparing her to Milk and Sharon Needles but in my opinion her style is all her own. She mixes camp with a dash of spookiness and just a bit of high fashion. She made her drag persona an actual character in her Meet The Queens video and she's just all around interesting.

7. Jasmine Masters

Jasmine has been really underestimated by people and it's been bothering me. To me, she seems like one of the most honest and down to earth queens that will be on the show this season. She has a serious of online videos called "I have something to say..." and she's given me quite a few laughs and has showed me that honesty is the best quality one can have. I have a lot of respect for her and I think people should give her a chance.

8. Katya Zamolodchikova

Ms Katya, I am LIVING! I can already tell that she is going to be one of my favorites to watch this season. She's so creative. I was on Facebook earlier and I saw her and Trixie share a video of Katya performing "My Heart Will Go On" from the Titanic movie and it was the Russian version. She made herself the iceberg and had this strap on half Titanic boat on her shoulders and wrapped around her body. I swear it was the greatest thing ever and I feel like when it comes to out of the box creativity, she will SLAY.

9. Kasha Davis

Kasha seems so genuine and sweet. While I was watching her Meet The Queens video, she had me smiling the whole time. She's very down to earth and has a very positive attitude. I don't know too much about her yet but I feel like even if she does end up going home she will still have a hell of a career ahead of her. She's absolutely beautiful and I feel like she has the potential to take the world by storm. 

10. Tempest Dujour

When I first saw the snapchat hints, I seriously thought Tempest was Miss Coco Peru. I don't think I can describe Tempest's style exactly, but let's just say she's one of those queens that you either understand or you don't. She's very camp and out of the box but still extremely gorgeous. I feel like if she ever collaborated with Miss Coco Peru, it would be absolutely EXPLOSIVE. She has experience and she knows who she is as a performer and it shows. I can't help but love her. She's going to be a threat this season in my opinion.

11. Ginger Minj

Ginger is probably going to be the sweetheart this season. I feel like she's going to maybe be the one who just wants everyone to get along. I don't see her as being really sassy unless she has to be. I feel like she reminds me of someone who just wants to make friends with everyone unless you cross her path. That being said, I don't think people should underestimate her either because I see her as being someone that will use that quality to her advantage. While everyone else is fighting I feel like she will be the one who just stays out of it and works hard on her challenges. I could be wrong but I really love her. She's a sweetheart.

12. Kandy 'Ho

Kandy is the Puerto Rican of this season! I always end up loving the Puerto Rican contestants of every season. Kandy is absolutely adorable. I've heard her name basically everywhere and I know she's a very loved queen in the drag world. Her look is very polished and I swear I need to go to Puerto Rico and drink some of their water or something because I feel that Puerto Rican Drag Queens are all so polished and beautiful. But Kandy isn't like every other Puerto Rican queen because along with her beauty comes a lot of personality and attitude as well and I love it! You go girl!

13. Violet Chachki

GIRL. I have been following Violet just as long as I have been following Max. She's absolutely gorgeous!  Her style is very high fashion and her face is always beat for the galaxies. If she ever has to lip sync for her life, she would have that performance in the bag. She can dance, she's extremely pretty, and she can most definitely perform. Hands down. 

14. Kennedy Davenport

Last but certainly not least, Kennedy Davenport. I honestly didn't know much about her until she got ruvealed with the rest of the cast so I had to do my own research. I found out she appeared on the hit TV show America's Got Talent and has also done pageants. From watching her Meet The Queens video, her personality was really laid back. But it's like when she gets onstage she goes crazy and she's unstoppable. I really love that about her and I hope she translates that energy into the challenges because if she does that, she will probably steal that crown.

As you can tell, I love all 14 contestants and I can find nice things to say about each and every one of them. There are a few I knew of already and a few that I've never heard of before. I usually try to stay away from the show on this page because my page is more focused on queens that haven't been on the show. I've spoken with a few girls from the show but most of my interviews are queens that haven't been on Drag Race. This review though, it's been in high demand. Ever since the ruveal happened, I've gotten lots of messages from people asking what I thought of all the contestants. My main overall judgement is that it's going to be a close season and all of them could possibly steal that crown. There isn't one that is better than the other. I'm also going to say that I wanted to do this because I see a lot of these contestants getting underestimated and I don't exactly agree with it because everyone does their own thing. I think all of them will bring their own talents and it's going to be one hell of a season. You're all welcome!
