It must be very unpleasant, but is what the average online negative commenter says any worse than a bitchy confessional from a cast mate?
In my head I hear Raven's voice at Tatianna "her look was tit, her makeup was tit, her something else was tit, she's tit, she needs to go home"

Surely the team at the beeb could help them set up a filter so that they don't have to see the worst tweets?

There's always going to be arguments/shade between the queens, but that's between them as competitors and it's not genuinely spiteful. There's a sisterhood there (no pun intended lol).

The comments from random anonymous burner accounts are unsolicited and some people don't seem to get that it's just a reality TV show. Discussing the show on sites like this is fine but actively seeking out the queens to post nasty tit is not OK and crosses the line imo.
 
It's the modern issue isn't it? Social media is how we consume and analyse our entertainment but it's also how these queens build their careers. Tagging a contestant in to criticise them is a dick move but even just clicking on a trending topic or searching the show hashtag could expose Sister Sister - or any DRUK contestant- to some harsh remark they wish they hadn't seen.

Oh DMing is completely off, I thought it was reading comments not dms

Bimini for the crown!

I liked Ginny until she started referring herself as an 'icon' on the interview with Jodie Harsh. There is loving yourself and then there is sucking yourself off.

I really hated the way Ru made her feel that she should dress sexy (obvs I want her to feel sexy) but femininity doesn't have to be tied with sexiness in the male gaze, and I liked having a non sexy queen. I don't think the answer to the problems about patriarchy and beauty is to insist that everyone becomes more beautiful, I think drag could be an interesting foil to that sometimes.

Tia would be perfect on Saturday morning tele or kids tv

PMSL at sucking yourself off!

I don't think Ru necessarily wanted her to always dress sexy, more just to show more versatility rather than just being Timmy Mallett on every show.

This seems to be a new in joke. I think Rupaul did it a few times accidentally but found it funny so now it's a thing they do every time.

She's always done it - it's not new. I imagine there's only a certain amount of judging time.

I don't get the sister sister hate or the accusations of her stealing looks because of one outfit.

I don't like her. She's definitely been spraying a bit too much of Jinx's Delusion all over her.

She does the same as Lawrence though. Tries to be sarcastically funny but then can't take it back from others. She's not for me, I'm afraid.

Also, I can't take anyone with that hairstyle seriously.

Bimini reminds me of Crystal Methyd from US Drag Race last year - faded into the background for the first couple of weeks and then came into their own and stole the show and everyone's hearts:giggle:

Nah, Crystal Methyd was utter torture. That makeup was never drag, it was always just clown. Bimini is funny and beautiful - she's deffo got a Keith Flint thing going on.

Pretty much the more they boohoo, the more they start to annoy me. Bianca Del Rio was right when she said that they only squeeze those tears out when they think they might be eliminated (a la left at bus stop Roxxxy Andrews).

I thought Roxxxy's was genuine, but ever since it feels that Ru tries to push for another moment like that. Like getting baga chipz's mum on, when they are kinda estranged, hoping for a full breakdown and makeup? I hope they offered some MH support alongside that.
