15x10 - 50/50's Most Gagworthy Stars
Posted: 04/29/24 09:48
[singing] MTV
Previously on
"RuPaul's Drag Race"...
We are throwing a ball.
[cheering]
Salina EsTittes.
I'm in love with
your personality,
but I also want to be
in love with your dress.
Spice.
The skirt is a piece
of fabric tied together.
Sasha Colby.
It looks like something that
would be from the Met Gala.
Condragulations.
You're the winner of
this week's challenge.
Yay!
Salina EsTittes,
shantay, you stay.
Thank you.
Spice, sashay away.
[punchy music]
Oh, oh.
Oh, my God.
Aw, my Baby.
Spice is gone.
I feel so sad that
it's her time to leave,
but I'm not sad that
I'm still here, b*tch.
"It's been so easy and so fun."
Yeah.
"Thank you for
being my new sisters
"when my real one left me.
PS, where does
the dingaling go?"
I'm looking at three canned
bits all mushed into one.
Even knowing that I was
lip syncing against her
had me so positive.
Because she made it fun.
No, 'cause I was gonna
send her home, b*tch.
[all cackling]
Spice was like
a daughter to me.
I'm definitely
going to miss her,
but separating
personal from drag--
it was definitely
her time to go.
- Sasha.
- Hi.
How does it feel to have
now won two challenges?
Oh, it was so good.
Tonight, Sasha, like,
you literally, like,
peed on the stage.
Like, you peed.
Y'all should
soak some of that up
so y'all can get a win, too.
- Oh!
- Oh!
Ooh, Girl.
I already won three.
Oh, wow.
I feel like people
are forgetting
how well I have been
doing in this competition.
I'm the only person who
has won three challenges,
two minis and a main.
Loosey, how are you feeling?
Lucille.
Still feeling good, honestly.
[all cackling]
Mistress laughs every
time I open my mouth.
I thought it was
funny that you said,
I'm still feeling really
good, when the last time
we were here, you said,
I'm f*cking pissed.
I'm feeling good because
even though they didn't
like my second look,
they really loved
my first and third look.
And I agree with them with the
critiques on the second look.
[laughs] Sometimes
I can't help
but laugh at Loosey because
I know she's being fake.
What are you laughing about?
She laughs at every single--
This is not congenial.
[squealing laughter]
Loosey is much more competitive
than she alludes to.
Loosey, I'm just
so happy for you
'cause I feel like
you're finally
entering your b*tch era.
Mistress is projecting
onto me because,
mama, if anyone is a b*tch,
Mistress is the b*tch.
- Mosh.
- Yes?
How are you feeling?
Honestly, I thought I
was going to be in the top.
I thought I was
a contender to win.
I don't understand
why everyone else
is allowed to be
upset at their placement,
and I'm getting
really fed up with it.
I mean, I really--
I think I ex*cuted
what they ask me to do.
Are you gonna attack her?
[laughs]
Sorry, there's some
drama going on over there.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Loosey was trying to see
if I was going to attack you
because there goes Loosey
being a b*tch again.
No, stop.
[laughter]
I have won some of the most
iconic challenges
in "Drag Race" herstory,
so I think I have earned
a certain level of respect,
and I'm not being shown that.
I know I stir the pot,
but I think that Loosey is
trying to act like
she's a nice girl,
and Loosey really is a b*tch.
If you're going to be a
b*tch, just be a b*tch.
You don't have to
pretend to be sweet.
I mean, look at me.
Eee!
- Oh.
- Can you unlace
my hand-made corset
that I was safe for?
You never can
complain about being safe
unless you're Loosey.
[laughter]
[singing] RuPaul's Drag Race
The winner
of "RuPaul's Drag Race"
receives a one-year supply
of Anastasia Beverly
Hills cosmetics
and a gag-worthy grand
prize of $200,000
served by Cash App,
with extra special
guest judge T.S Madison.
[singing] RuPaul's Drag Race
May the best
drag queen win
Best drag queen win
[upbeat music]
[laughter]
It's a new day
in the Werkroom,
as they say,
and I'm feeling rested
'cause I know that
Michelle thinks
that I have
a resting b*tch face,
so I'm trying to be
a little bit more...
smiley today.
[laughs]
Hello, hello, hello.
- [cheering]
- Hey, Ru.
Ladykids,
for today's Maxi challenge,
you need to conduct
one-on-one interviews
for TV's sketchiest
news magazine...
"50/50."
This is your chance to get up
close and personal
with some
of today's most gag-worthy
and uniquely
talented celebrities.
Ooh.
As your editor-in-queef,
I'll be handing out
your assignments.
Marcia, Marcia, Marcia,
and Sasha Colby,
you'll be going deep with a
legendary entertainer--
Charo.
[laughs] Coochie, coochie.
Charo is an actress.
She is arguably
the world's greatest
flamenco guitar player.
She does cooking videos.
Saffron make your
boyfriend go crazy.
And she's made a fortune
off of coochie, coochie.
Work, fun!
Anetra, Loosey LaDuca,
and Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
you'll be probing
Frankie Grande.
[all screaming]
Oh, I am thrilled.
He's done "Big Brother."
He's done
"Mamma Mia!" on Broadway.
He's amazing at social media.
He's Ariana's brother,
for crying out loud.
And Luxx Noir London,
Mistress Isabelle Brooks,
and Salina EsTittes,
you need to get inside
- Love Connie.
- Yes!
[overlapping chatter]
Love Connie is a wild
and crazy drag persona
who is an aerobics fanatic.
Lunge, lunge.
She's been in
a couple movies.
She's really fierce.
Your show is going
to be broadcast live.
Remember, a great interviewer
makes a real connection
with her subjects and gets
them to reveal themselves
in unforgettable ways.
- Oh, and one more thing.
- What?
Tomorrow, on the runway,
the category is
Night of A Thousand Beyoncés.
[all cheering]
Racers, start your engines,
and may the best
drag queen win.
Team Love Connie.
There are three
different segments.
The first one is a
walk-and-talk interview.
The second one is an
activity interview.
And the third one is
a sit-down interview.
Very Diane Sawyer tease.
I would love the sit down one,
just because, like, I had
a podcast in the past,
and I've done a lot
of interviews and stuff.
And I got something
to prove, b*tch.
OK, let's go.
Almost everyone has a win under
their belt except for Titties.
Back at home, I'm that b*tch.
People know my name.
So I gotta make sure that
that's what's going on here.
And you know,
EsTittes can improv, honey.
This is my moment to prove
myself and get a win.
I mean, we have, like,
a lot to work with.
We need to decipher,
like, what questions
we wanna ask in each segment.
That way,
it won't be repetitive.
Yeah, we want
to make sure not to
- overlap on our subjects.
- Yeah.
He just got
married last year,
so I think that it would
be a good point for me
to start my interview with.
Yeah, like the vegan
thing should be the pizza.
So my strategy
for this interview
is trying to get all
of the information
so I can figure out a way
to attack this challenge.
- I'm feeling good.
- We got it.
- Go, Team Grande.
- Team talent.
[laughter]
- What a--what a personality.
- I know.
Are you nervous about
being able to understand
her thick accent?
Because she does a thick--
A little bit.
I'm a little nervous about it.
Hopefully,
it won't be a problem.
I'm 100% 50/50 that
we're going to nail 50/50.
[laughter]
What do you think of
these other b*tches?
Um, I'm not too sure.
With the Salina,
Mistress are very loud.
Well, Salina's loud.
And Luxx can be a little dry.
And Mistress can be kind
of, like, the wild card.
- Like, she might just like...
- Uh-huh.
Run them all over.
Which I'm hoping.
I feel, um--
- [laughs] She saw us.
- She saw us.
Now Marcia talking about me.
b*tch, please.
Ooh.
Not that.
We're not talking
about anybody.
- Don't worry about it.
- Oh, wow.
Now Marcia's starting
her b*tch era.
Marcia's in her villain
all right, I see.
Ah!
I mean, I'm happy that we
ended up with Love Connie,
but I think Charo's
a good celebrity as well.
But girl,
I don't know if Marcia
will, like, match her energy.
I bet Marcia's gonna be like,
- what the f*ck is happening?
- Exactly.
She's gonna get
very thrown, yeah.
Charo's definitely
a hard one.
I do not envy
that group at all.
Do you feel
you're going to give,
- like, a sickening interview?
- I don't know.
Maybe.
I'm glad you
got Charo, though.
- Why?
- 'Cause I feel like
Love Connie
wears a little bit
more makeup than you.
There it is.
Go back to your table.
You're going to
be here with me.
- Right here, OK?
- Yes. Yes, yes, yes.
I'm gonna look beautiful today.
Everybody set?
We're rolling.
You guys look right
into this camera.
It's finally time to
sh**t our "50/50" segment.
Now, this is live, America,
so you only get one take.
Oh my God.
We get to watch
other segments
on a monitor in the
Werkroom, live and in color,
up close and personal.
We get to see what these
other girls doin'.
[all exclaiming]
Welcome to "50/50,"
the show that keeps it 100
with your favorite celebs.
Everybody say love.
Connie!
This daring ingenue's taking
Hollywood into Connie-wood,
one high kick at a time.
Take a look.
- Hi.
- Hello!
It's so lovely to meet you.
We have Love Connie
here today.
Are you prepared to go deep?
Ooh!
[giggles] Connie, you know.
Well, just a little
Sharon Stone for you,
a little Catherine Tramell.
So I'm curious.
You came from the South.
You ended up in Hollywood.
What happened?
You got here.
How did--what played out?
Well, I had won a couple of
local pageants in Louisiana.
And I was currently
representing Miss Stockshow,
which is, you know,
you model in a swimsuit
and then show
your prize heifer.
She goes on these
wild tangents,
and I never know when
they're going to end.
The bus ticket only got me
as far as Waxahachie, Texas,
- but, uh...
- Tell me the story
about a prosthetic leg.
I saw that they were having
a leg wrestling contest
at this local bar,
and I thought, honey,
these gams, baby?
So I'm finding myself having
to, like, pause, be patient.
That's how you talk
- to squirrels, by the way.
- Is it really?
Because I don't know
when she's going to stop.
I'm so curious.
Like, you've achieved
so much in your career.
What's next for Connie?
Oh my God.
Well, I would love my own show.
I mean, I've still
got all my teeth.
I've still got a great rack.
I haven't had
these babies done.
So I just say I'm just
going to get better with age,
if I could only just
get my own show.
I hitched a ride with
the queen of gal-isthenics,
and honey, it got fierce.
Take a look.
Hey, Connie, girl.
- Hi, love.
- You have room for one more?
You know Aunt Connie is
running the kitty car today.
You know, we're at "50/50."
We gotta see the nitty gritty.
Your nemesis, Candy.
- Candy Hernandez?
- Candy Hernandez.
How did you meet Candy,
and how did this feud start?
Candy Hernandez
pulled a fast one on me.
I hate Candy Hernandez!
Oh, I'm so sorry.
[horn blares]
- [laughter]
- Oh my god.
Love Connie is a very
unpredictable person.
- Pedal to the metal!
- Whoo!
So I'm rolling
with the punches.
I will drive this interview and
this golf cart if I have to.
I'm loving this golf cart.
Honey, I don't know
anything about golf,
but all I know is I love
some balls on the nine hole.
Oh, yes.
I love it.
I'm sure you had a great
time driving those golf carts
on the set of Legally Blonde.
How was that?
It was fabulous.
I loved you in
the role of Maurice.
- Oh my God.
- The hairdresser.
You have really been
doing your research.
You know, when you
had that iconic line,
"Oh my God, the bend and snap.
It works every time."
- Do you know what we could do?
- What could we do?
We could blow this joint.
- [gasps] Let's go.
- In fact,
- let's get outta here!
- Where are we going?
Move these guys.
Mayday!
Out of control golf cart.
Somebody call
Ghostbusters, please.
Who are you gonna call?
Oh my God.
No brakes!
No, there's no brakes!
Did you have any
more questions for me
before we die?
Um, what's your
favorite food?
- [queens cackle]
- We're gonna die,
and I'm wearing
my grandmother's panties.
Grab the wheel!
Oh my God!
[crashing]
- Oh!
- Oh.
[upbeat theme music]
I had the
opportunity to satisfy
my sweet tooth with Connie
as we discussed
her passion for icing cakes.
Take a look.
We've got some
lovely cupcakes here.
Do you want to,
like, decorate any?
Is that what we're doing?
Of course.
Walk us through--
you know,
we're here to take a look
into your favorite pastime.
Now, I think most people
would be shocked to know
that you
love to frost cupcakes.
Connie makes her own
little chocolate drops
from her own little factory.
Now, I know you
have a sweet tooth.
What's your secret to keeping
your dynamite figure, baby?
Oh, look.
I'm good at this.
You can do all kinds
of little designs.
What is that, a rosebud?
Or a prolapse.
The b*tch
is crazier than I ever
thought she was going to be.
What is the most
rewarding project
you've had the opportunity
to work on in your career?
I keep thinking
I have been scratching
my ass or something here.
I don't know what is going on.
Oh, no.
Mistress doesn't know how
to f*cking read this b*tch.
That's real tea.
Honey, draw a vag*na.
Miss Connie is sending Miss
Mistress for a f*cking loop.
[laughs]
I took jazz classes
with f*cking
Elizabeth Berkley, too.
Well, thank you so much,
Love Connie.
It has been an amazing journey.
And I feel like I
know you even more.
- Oh, really?
- I do.
Well, I've lied
about everything
I talked about today.
You don't really
know me at all.
What makes you think
I won't cut you?
Scene!
Thank you for
joining us on "50/50."
all: Good night.
[laughter]
And we're clear.
- Thank you, ladies.
- Thank you.
When my segment is over,
I cannot help but breathe
a big sigh of relief.
[sighs]
And I'm about
to go learn to lip sync
because I feel like
I'm in the bottom.
[upbeat music]
Welcome to 50/50,
a show that gives you
And 50% mosh.
Today, we are talking
to the legendary Charo.
I got a chance to make
a salad with Charo.
Take a look.
- Hi!
- Mwa, mwa.
Oh my gosh.
I love you so much.
Oh, I'm so excited.
We gonna make
a hell of a salad.
- Before we start cooking...
- Uh-huh.
I know you come from Hawaii.
- I am from Hawaii, yeah.
- Aloha.
And you've lived in
Hawaii for a long time.
I live in Hawaii. OK.
Let's say something
right now to everybody.
[speaking Hawaiian]
You know what that means?
"Your crazy pig
is eating my papaya."
Interacting with Charo--
it's--it's half fangirling.
Coochie coochie.
Chef Coochie.
Oh my gosh, I get to
witness it in person.
And half of, oh,
this is a challenge.
I tell you where we go
when you got
everything you see here--
you pretend that you are a cat.
Meow, meow, meow, meow.
Meow, meow, meow.
[laughter]
[indistinct chatter]
[laughter]
I'm a big fan of
all your variety appearances
like in "Carol Burnett"
and "Sonny and Cher."
How was it working, like,
being so well-rounded?
You had to do
acting and comedy.
I juggling.
Then, one day, I was in
Cohasset, Massachusetts,
and I open my legs,
and I get pregnant.
Oh!
[laughs] Just like that.
She [indistinct] they say
the hell I'm talking about.
In all these years,
who needs this?
[all cackling]
I follow you on Instagram.
Follow her at OfficialCharo.
Coochie, coochie, Charo.
I mean,
this interview is chaotic.
Very good.
It look like you
had done that before.
I've tossed
a salad in my day.
Behave, my child.
But listen, Miss Sasha
is hanging in there.
[speaking Hawaiian]
"Cappa puy poo-ha-ah."
At the end of my segment,
to sum it all up,
I would have to say, your
crazy pig is eating my papaya.
- Salud.
- Salud.
Aloha.
- Coochie coochie.
- Coochie coochie.
I had a heartfelt
conversation with Charo
where I got some pretty
incredible life advice.
Let's take a look.
Mwa.
Mwa.
I have to say,
sitting across from you
is pretty incredible.
You've had a long
and illustrious career.
Upon arrival,
you were kind of branded
as the coochie coochie girl.
Do you ever feel that that
limited you in any way
in your career?
Coochie coochie
be my fun,
but I reached a point in my
life that I had to change.
Uh-huh.
I'm going to play a city,
just break it down.
And they said, you're
going to get broke.
I feel like Marcia's having
a little bit of a hard time
understanding Charo.
The bigger down low
in my soul city.
Baby, you name it, online.
Girl, all my aunties
talk like that,
so I could
understand everything
that she was saying,
and it was just Marcia
like this for me.
Oh.
[laughs]
I wish you grew up like me.
I grew up free, like bird.
- It sounds like it.
- I was.
You know the pleasure
to sleep on a tree?
Mm-hmm.
Well, don't do it now.
What is she doing
on top of a tree?
They call the police.
Oh, great.
[laughs]
We have one final
question for you, Charo.
OK. Ask me.
It's the one that is
on everybody's lips.
Yeah.
How old are you really?
That's a helluva
good question, Marcia.
- I am an old b*tch.
- Uh-huh.
According to
my latest record...
I came to America with
Christopher Columbus.
[laughs]
And he was hot.
Thank you for joining us
on "50/50."
And remember...
If you can't love yourself...
How the hell are you gonna...
Coochie, coochie,
coochie, coochie, coochie?
We're here today
with Frankie Grande.
I sit down with the
dancing queen himself.
Let's take a look.
Now, first of all, I
have to congratulate you.
- Yes.
- You are a married man now.
- I am a married man.
- Oh you did good.
Thank you.
- I knew you would.
- Thank you so much, honey.
Now, you had a little
bit of a brush with death.
You had a near-fatal... bite.
I need to hear about this
because it is my worst fear.
I was doing a lot of
charity work in South Africa.
And I went to a
medicine man's hut--
well, I think he
sensed my skepticism,
and I think he stuck
a spider on me.
'Cause I looked down,
and there was a spider,
and it bit me.
On the flight home, my leg blew
up to the size of a balloon.
And the CDC came and gave me,
like, a special juice.
And then I went down in, like...
- Horrifying.
- An hour.
Now, on a happier note,
I know you're a huge
- sci-fi fan, right?
- Yes, huge sci-fi--
Favorite sci-fi
movie of all time?
- "Aliens."
- Is "Aliens" the one
- with the big robot?
- Yes.
"Get away from her...
both: You b*tch!"
[laughter]
This role
was built for Loosey.
Barbara Walters, Steve--
I'm like, that is literally
Loosey's character of drag.
So she has this in the bag.
I love, love, love.
We gotta get her on the show.
- We'll do a three-way...
- Oh.
- Interview.
- That sounds great.
Or whatever.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, three-way whatever.
A three-way whatever.
I visited Frankie on set,
where we chatted about life
on and off screen,
and nothing was off limits.
Well, hello.
[both screaming]
Power walking.
Do you power walk often?
I am so obsessed with
getting my steps up
that sometimes
I'll just swing my arms.
What else do you like
to do other than that?
I'm actually weighting
and lifting now.
- Are you really?
- A whole new thing.
I'm married now.
How long have
you been married?
I've been married for a month
when this is being filmed.
- A month?
- I know.
- Congratulations.
- Isn't that crazy?
Anetra I was the
most nervous about
just because I know
she's really quiet.
Do some grapevines,
back steps.
I just want to
show off my legs.
Oh my God.
I look like
I'm in "The Music Man."
And she's surprising me.
When did you come out?
I came out when
I was 21 years old.
I actually came out to
my fraternity first.
Wow.
Sigma Phi Epsilon,
shout out to y'all.
You ran so we could strut.
[laughs] And there were
many people before me.
Yas. Period.
Well, thank you for
exhausting yourself
and stretching my legs.
- I hit my goal.
- You did?
Yay!
Work. Bam!
After working up quite
an appetite with Anetra,
I got the chance to visit
Frankie in his kitchen.
Mm.
Let's check
it out.
[Italian accent] Ciao,
welcome to my kitchen.
Oh, I'm so happy to be here.
It was so nice for you
to come to my kitchen.
This is Frankie Grande's
Pizza Kitchen.
- Starting with the dough...
- OK.
You just want to start with
the spinning and the tossing.
- Are we ready?
- Uh...
[giggles] Here we go.
So you want to pull
it apart a little bit.
And you want to spin and toss. OK.
- There we go.
- OK.
Here we go.
This should have been a
challenge on "Big Brother."
I would have won.
Now we're going to put
on the tomato sauce.
- A little sauce?
- Yeah, a little sauce.
- A little saucey.
- You know, that's great.
That's a great shape.
I love a square pizza.
Whatever shape
you have in your heart.
I should have did a heart.
- Speaking of hearts...
- Yes.
- Speaking of hearts.
- Oh, yes, please.
I know that you just recently
got, you know, married.
Does he enjoy your meatballs?
Oh, he certainly does.
Are they spicy meatballs?
They are spicy
Italian meatballs.
Welcome to
Frankini's kitchen, baby.
Oh, mwa.
He's interviewing Malaysia
more than Malaysia's
interviewing Frankie.
Are you, uh, preferring the
one on the right or the left?
- Um...
- AKA, are you a size queen?
I don't really see Malaysia
shining in this moment.
[Italian accent] Frankie,
we got the pizza going,
and we're going to
put it in the oven.
b*tch,
this is a hot-ass mess.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
I don't know what's worse,
the conversation and dialogue,
or Malaysia's synthetic bob.
Mmm.
Mmm.
[both mmm-ing]
Thank you for joining us
on "50/50."
I'm like, oh, shit.
I'm just hoping that somebody
else did worse than me.
Oh.
Ooh!
Y'all ready for Beyoncé?
Girl, we're ready to
get up into the geek.
Beyoncé.
Category is Night of
A Thousand Beyoncés,
or Night of Eight Beyoncés.
Beyoncé Knowles.
Elimination
is happening tonight.
And I'm on thin ice, but
I'ma still snatch this mug.
I'ma going to give
my Beyoncé fantasy,
and we will just see
how this plays out.
So fun fact,
y'all, every time
everybody asks me what's your
name, I'm like, oh, Sasha.
And they're like, oh, Sasha
Fierce, just like Beyoncé.
I'm like, well, I was Sasha
before the album came out.
[laughter]
For the record, Sasha Colby
came before Sasha Fierce.
Just going to put
that out there.
And I have, like,
a conspiracy theory
that because I knew
some of the dancers
back when she did the Sasha
Fierce thing, then, like,
they are good friends of
mine, so I was like, hmm.
Interesting.
Maybe, like, she could
have seen me at one point,
and, like--
Maybe Beyoncé may have
seen one of my performances
and thought that that
was fierce, Sasha.
Sasha Fierce.
I'm just going to say,
and until Beyoncé
tells me to my face that it's
a lie, I'm going to keep it.
I'm gagged at this
story right now.
Sasha, what?
So that's an
invitation for Beyoncé
to come talk to me, babe.
- I believe it.
- Wow.
What a lovely fairy tale.
[laughs]
Oh, Beyoncé, a legend.
["Covergirl" begins]
[RuPaul laughing]
[singing] Covergirl,
put the bass in your walk
[singing] Head to toe,
let your whole body talk
And... what?
Welcome to the main stage
of "RuPaul's Drag Race"
Michelle Visage
and media mogul T.S. Madison.
This week,
we challenged our queens
to show off their interviewing
skills on "50/50."
And tonight on the runway,
category is
Night of a Thousand Beyoncés.
Racers, start your engines,
and may the best
drag queen win.
[singing] The run
is your runway
Up first, Luxx Noir London
at the 2006
Kennedy Center Honors
honoring Tina Turner.
I am serving
a direct recreation
of a Bob Mackie dress.
Perfection,
But what else can
you expect from me?
You're born naked,
and the rest is Bob Mackie.
Amen.
Mistress Isabelle Brooks.
At the 2001 Grammy Awards.
Oh, Michelle,
can you handle this?
Yes, I can.
I love Destiny's Child-era
Beyoncé.
We are independent women.
We are survivors.
And, Ru, we can pay my
bill, bill, bills, OK?
Destiny's conjoined triplets.
[laughter]
Salina EsTittes
at the 2004 Grammy Awards.
My Grammys today are
the RuPaul Chia Pets.
Baby, I feel sexy.
I feel glamour.
I feel gorgeous and beautiful.
b*tch, I'm Beyoncé.
I'd like to thank the
Academy, the hair academy.
Sasha Colby at
the 2006 BET Awards.
Ooh, is that a Tina Knowles
original, a TKO?
I am in my Deja Vu era.
I'm giving you body-ody-ody
'cause no one else can.
I'm giving you "Be-yon-cé."
Sasha Colby is Sasha Fierce.
Marcia, Marcia, Marcia,
at the Title X
Brooklyn 2017 charity event.
Baby, I'm drunk
in love with this.
I'm a vision
in emerald green.
I look soft to the touch,
and I've got
Beyoncé's half up, half down.
This ponytail could
stand up all by itself.
Yeah, I'm giving
this the green light.
Anetra, the On the Run tour.
Bow down, b*tches.
I'm trying to give you
all of this attitude,
the stomp, presence.
The waist is waisting,
the hips are hipping,
and the breasts are breasting.
- All hell Queen B.
- That's it.
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx, the
It's god, honey.
Black is King.
Baby, I'm giving you curves.
I'm giving you big thighs
because they save lives.
It's just very fashion forward.
I feel like it's a look.
She got love on
top and bottom.
Loosey LaDuca, the 2011 VMAs.
I have chosen the iconic
performance of "Love on Top"
and the big reveal of
the Beyoncé baby bump.
What to expect when
you're expecting Beyoncé.
I am letting my hair
just bounce in the wind.
If you don't have
wind in the hair,
you are not Beyoncé, sweetheart.
Oh, ain't no
more single ladies.
Welcome, Queens.
I've made some decisions.
Marcia, Marcia, Marcia,
Anetra, you are both safe.
You may leave the stage.
Ladies, now it's time for
the judges' critiques.
Starting with Luxx Noir London.
Hi.
You had a tough one.
Love Connie will just
throw anything at you.
Pedal to the metal!
And I thought you
handled it really well.
I thought the way you
interviewed was genuine,
and I liked your
line of questioning.
And you brought things back.
You were kind of matching
Connie tit for tat,
and I enjoyed that.
This is an iconic
look for you.
[squeals] - It's great.
I'm sure Mr. Mackie
will love that, too.
I hope he does.
And a little trivia.
The outfit that Beyoncé wore--
I actually wore that dress
to an event years ago.
The outfit was made
for Linda Carter.
- You look great, kiddo.
- Thank you.
I really, really
appreciate that.
Up next,
Mistress Isabelle Brooks.
Let's start in the kitchen.
I was a little
disappointed because you
want to make the audience
do this stuff with you.
I'm good at this.
Some of the warmth of
relating over the food
was missing.
But this, I love.
And I think tonight
is so particularly you
with the joke,
but done in glamour.
You know how to paint,
but I think
this is the most beautiful
you have ever looked.
Thank you.
This look is your
destiny, child.
[laughter]
Up next, Salina EsTittes.
- You look so pretty tonight.
- Thank you.
This honey hair color
is so beautiful on you.
I love it.
In your challenge, you had
some really strong moments.
I think when you started losing
me was you kept talking over.
- But, uh--
- Tell me the story...
I was going to ask a lot
more deeper questions,
but she was going
off the deep end.
So I was just like,
how can I pick the ball up
with where she's going?
And then I would be
like, oh, my God,
uh, this because you said it.
You were stuck
in your head a bit,
and you can never let
what's going on in your head
show on your face.
Honey, you gotta treat that
like an ugly piece
of trade, girl.
You got to be like...
you cute, you know?
Yeah, I was, like, probably
just stuck in my head
- thinking of the next...
- Yeah.
- Thing to say
- It's a rookie mistake.
The key to interviewing
is listening.
Up next, Sasha Colby.
Tonight on the runway,
it's almost
identical to what B. wore.
It's just wonderful.
- In the challenge...
- Coochie, coochie.
Chef Coochie.
You have Charo, who
has big d*ck energy, OK?
You matched it enough
without trying to one-up her,
but your generosity
with her is what you
need with somebody like her.
And your ease with letting
her be her,
just going
with it--that felt so good.
My favorite part--
you throwing the cards away,
which let the audience know
we're going to have
some fun here.
But what I liked the
most, you and Charo
both spoke to the audience.
You acknowledged me
as a viewer.
Have you hosted
television before?
- In my dreams.
- Oh.
In all of my dreams.
Listen, kiddo,
you are a natural at it.
So glad you all liked it.
Thank you.
Up next,
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx.
You look beautiful tonight.
I love this look.
I think you did it well.
- All the single ladies, baby.
- Yes.
But, uh, your challenge.
When you walked in the
kitchen, the roles switched.
AKA, are you a size queen?
It became
his interview of you.
Right.
Were you scared of this
challenge?
Not necessarily scared.
I think, like you say,
he has a big personality.
I was kind of taken back.
Look how big your personality
is for what you came out in.
You have to display
that in the challenge.
And you from Dade County, girl?
Uh-huh!
You got to do better, girl.
In my mind, I think
I'm super confident.
And then I shut down
because I get intimidated.
What do you think
is stopping you?
I think sometimes I just
tell myself I'd rather
be safe than, you know, sorry.
Not overdo it, you know?
All right.
Thank you.
Up next, Loosey LaDuca.
Hey.
Somehow you made that drag
tuxedo moment of Beyoncé
revealing her pregnancy
even draggier.
Your challenge--
you have to meet
your guests where they are.
both: You b*tch!
[laughter]
And you did that.
Thank you.
He felt comfortable
in your presence, which
is what we often talk about.
And we got some real Frankie.
- Really, really well done.
- Thank you.
Although
I've got to tell you,
he actually accused a
witchdoctor in South Africa
of sticking a spider on--
I wanted you to say,
wait a minute, hold up.
There was a follow up
question, an obvious one.
But we didn't get there.
That's my only mark.
- I wanted that follow up.
- Right.
- Thank you, Loosey.
- Thank you, Ru.
Thank you, ladies.
I think we've heard enough.
While you on untuck
in the Werkroom,
the judges and I
will deliberate.
Welcome back, ladies.
I've made some decisions.
Luxx Noir London, you are safe.
Thank you.
Sasha Colby,
this week you are Queen B.
Condragulations.
You are the winner of
this week's challenge.
You've won a cash prize
of 5,000 gualas.
I won?
Again?
Oh!
Loosey LaDuca, you are safe.
Mistress Isabelle Brooks,
the judges were crazy in love
with your runway, but your
Love Connie interview--
not so much.
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
you look gorgeous,
but your interview
was not a dream, girl.
Salina EsTittes, the judges
were warm for your formation,
but in your interview,
you forgot to listen.
[suspenseful music]
Mistress Isabelle Brooks,
you are safe.
Thank you so much.
You may join the other girls.
Salina EsTittes,
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
I'm sorry, my dears, but you
are both up for elimination.
Girl, I'm just holding back
my tears because, like, b*tch,
I got to fight right now.
Let's go.
The time has come
for you to lip sync...
for... your... life.
Child, I want to stay
in this competition.
Baby, I'm going to fight
to the death of me, baby.
Come on, come on.
Start the music.
Good luck,
and don't f*ck it up.
[Beyoncé, "Single Ladies"]
[singing] All

All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
Now put your hands up
Up in the club,

You decided to dip,

'Cause another brother

I'm up on him, he up on me
Don't give him

Just cried my tears

You can't be mad at me
Because if you

[singing] If you liked it then
you shoulda put a ring on it
But you know what
happens to bottoms?
They f*cking
are powerful, b*tch.
So I'ma power bottom
my shit out of this.
[singing] Don't treat me
to the things of the world
I'm not that kind of girl
Your love is what I
prefer, what I deserve
Here's a man
that makes me
Then takes me and delivers
me to a destiny
To infinity and beyond
All the single ladies,

[singing] All the single ladies
Whoo-whoo, yeah!
[singing] All the single ladies
Now put your hands up
Oh, uh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

One more time, b*tch.
[singing] If you liked it

Come on, b*tch.
[singing] Shoulda put
a ring on it
Don't be mad once
you see that he want it
'Cause if you liked it then
you shoulda put a ring on it
Oh, uh, oh
- Yes!
- Yes!
[applause]
Whew-ie.
Woo!
Ladies,
I've made my decision.
[suspenseful music]
Salina EsTittes,
shantay, you stay.
You may join the other girls.
Sorry, Beyoncé.
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
we will always be
dangerously in love with you.
Now, sashay away.
Thank you so much
for this opportunity.
I really appreciate it.
Aw.
[applause]
This whole competition
I've been out of breath.
Now I can finally breathe.
[inhaler puffing]
[laughs] - Oh.
Of course, I wanted to win.
But I am very proud
of what I've done
throughout this competition.
When it comes to
thinking outside the box,
picture me,
Malaysia Babydoll, Babydoll,
Babydoll...
Foxx.
[smooches]
[laughs]
Condragulations, ladies.
And remember, if you can't
love yourself,
how in the hell you gonna
love somebody else?
Can I get an amen up in here?
Amen.
All right, now.
Let the music play.
[singing] A little bit
of love
Goes a long, long way
Lifting you up
to a brighter day
Can you feel the love?
Next time on
"RuPaul's Drag Race"...
You'll be performing at
the Bubbly Comedy Festival.
I bet they get
so white they say,
can I speak to the
manager, please?
We're forgetful.
Wait.
[whisperings] - Oh,
right, right, right.
[clears throat]
You are so funny.
I almost fell out of my skin.
Most of it just
started to fall flat.
It has to be more.
I'm just like,
let the unraveling began.
[dramatic chords]
[singing] A little bit of love
Goes a long, long way
Lifting you up
to a brighter day
A little bit of love
Goes a long, long way
Turn it around
when you up and say
Everybody say
love love love
Love uh uh uh
Love love love
uh uh uh
Love
can you feel the love?
Previously on
"RuPaul's Drag Race"...
We are throwing a ball.
[cheering]
Salina EsTittes.
I'm in love with
your personality,
but I also want to be
in love with your dress.
Spice.
The skirt is a piece
of fabric tied together.
Sasha Colby.
It looks like something that
would be from the Met Gala.
Condragulations.
You're the winner of
this week's challenge.
Yay!
Salina EsTittes,
shantay, you stay.
Thank you.
Spice, sashay away.
[punchy music]
Oh, oh.
Oh, my God.
Aw, my Baby.
Spice is gone.
I feel so sad that
it's her time to leave,
but I'm not sad that
I'm still here, b*tch.
"It's been so easy and so fun."
Yeah.
"Thank you for
being my new sisters
"when my real one left me.
PS, where does
the dingaling go?"
I'm looking at three canned
bits all mushed into one.
Even knowing that I was
lip syncing against her
had me so positive.
Because she made it fun.
No, 'cause I was gonna
send her home, b*tch.
[all cackling]
Spice was like
a daughter to me.
I'm definitely
going to miss her,
but separating
personal from drag--
it was definitely
her time to go.
- Sasha.
- Hi.
How does it feel to have
now won two challenges?
Oh, it was so good.
Tonight, Sasha, like,
you literally, like,
peed on the stage.
Like, you peed.
Y'all should
soak some of that up
so y'all can get a win, too.
- Oh!
- Oh!
Ooh, Girl.
I already won three.
Oh, wow.
I feel like people
are forgetting
how well I have been
doing in this competition.
I'm the only person who
has won three challenges,
two minis and a main.
Loosey, how are you feeling?
Lucille.
Still feeling good, honestly.
[all cackling]
Mistress laughs every
time I open my mouth.
I thought it was
funny that you said,
I'm still feeling really
good, when the last time
we were here, you said,
I'm f*cking pissed.
I'm feeling good because
even though they didn't
like my second look,
they really loved
my first and third look.
And I agree with them with the
critiques on the second look.
[laughs] Sometimes
I can't help
but laugh at Loosey because
I know she's being fake.
What are you laughing about?
She laughs at every single--
This is not congenial.
[squealing laughter]
Loosey is much more competitive
than she alludes to.
Loosey, I'm just
so happy for you
'cause I feel like
you're finally
entering your b*tch era.
Mistress is projecting
onto me because,
mama, if anyone is a b*tch,
Mistress is the b*tch.
- Mosh.
- Yes?
How are you feeling?
Honestly, I thought I
was going to be in the top.
I thought I was
a contender to win.
I don't understand
why everyone else
is allowed to be
upset at their placement,
and I'm getting
really fed up with it.
I mean, I really--
I think I ex*cuted
what they ask me to do.
Are you gonna attack her?
[laughs]
Sorry, there's some
drama going on over there.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Loosey was trying to see
if I was going to attack you
because there goes Loosey
being a b*tch again.
No, stop.
[laughter]
I have won some of the most
iconic challenges
in "Drag Race" herstory,
so I think I have earned
a certain level of respect,
and I'm not being shown that.
I know I stir the pot,
but I think that Loosey is
trying to act like
she's a nice girl,
and Loosey really is a b*tch.
If you're going to be a
b*tch, just be a b*tch.
You don't have to
pretend to be sweet.
I mean, look at me.
Eee!
- Oh.
- Can you unlace
my hand-made corset
that I was safe for?
You never can
complain about being safe
unless you're Loosey.
[laughter]
[singing] RuPaul's Drag Race
The winner
of "RuPaul's Drag Race"
receives a one-year supply
of Anastasia Beverly
Hills cosmetics
and a gag-worthy grand
prize of $200,000
served by Cash App,
with extra special
guest judge T.S Madison.
[singing] RuPaul's Drag Race
May the best
drag queen win
Best drag queen win
[upbeat music]
[laughter]
It's a new day
in the Werkroom,
as they say,
and I'm feeling rested
'cause I know that
Michelle thinks
that I have
a resting b*tch face,
so I'm trying to be
a little bit more...
smiley today.
[laughs]
Hello, hello, hello.
- [cheering]
- Hey, Ru.
Ladykids,
for today's Maxi challenge,
you need to conduct
one-on-one interviews
for TV's sketchiest
news magazine...
"50/50."
This is your chance to get up
close and personal
with some
of today's most gag-worthy
and uniquely
talented celebrities.
Ooh.
As your editor-in-queef,
I'll be handing out
your assignments.
Marcia, Marcia, Marcia,
and Sasha Colby,
you'll be going deep with a
legendary entertainer--
Charo.
[laughs] Coochie, coochie.
Charo is an actress.
She is arguably
the world's greatest
flamenco guitar player.
She does cooking videos.
Saffron make your
boyfriend go crazy.
And she's made a fortune
off of coochie, coochie.
Work, fun!
Anetra, Loosey LaDuca,
and Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
you'll be probing
Frankie Grande.
[all screaming]
Oh, I am thrilled.
He's done "Big Brother."
He's done
"Mamma Mia!" on Broadway.
He's amazing at social media.
He's Ariana's brother,
for crying out loud.
And Luxx Noir London,
Mistress Isabelle Brooks,
and Salina EsTittes,
you need to get inside
- Love Connie.
- Yes!
[overlapping chatter]
Love Connie is a wild
and crazy drag persona
who is an aerobics fanatic.
Lunge, lunge.
She's been in
a couple movies.
She's really fierce.
Your show is going
to be broadcast live.
Remember, a great interviewer
makes a real connection
with her subjects and gets
them to reveal themselves
in unforgettable ways.
- Oh, and one more thing.
- What?
Tomorrow, on the runway,
the category is
Night of A Thousand Beyoncés.
[all cheering]
Racers, start your engines,
and may the best
drag queen win.
Team Love Connie.
There are three
different segments.
The first one is a
walk-and-talk interview.
The second one is an
activity interview.
And the third one is
a sit-down interview.
Very Diane Sawyer tease.
I would love the sit down one,
just because, like, I had
a podcast in the past,
and I've done a lot
of interviews and stuff.
And I got something
to prove, b*tch.
OK, let's go.
Almost everyone has a win under
their belt except for Titties.
Back at home, I'm that b*tch.
People know my name.
So I gotta make sure that
that's what's going on here.
And you know,
EsTittes can improv, honey.
This is my moment to prove
myself and get a win.
I mean, we have, like,
a lot to work with.
We need to decipher,
like, what questions
we wanna ask in each segment.
That way,
it won't be repetitive.
Yeah, we want
to make sure not to
- overlap on our subjects.
- Yeah.
He just got
married last year,
so I think that it would
be a good point for me
to start my interview with.
Yeah, like the vegan
thing should be the pizza.
So my strategy
for this interview
is trying to get all
of the information
so I can figure out a way
to attack this challenge.
- I'm feeling good.
- We got it.
- Go, Team Grande.
- Team talent.
[laughter]
- What a--what a personality.
- I know.
Are you nervous about
being able to understand
her thick accent?
Because she does a thick--
A little bit.
I'm a little nervous about it.
Hopefully,
it won't be a problem.
I'm 100% 50/50 that
we're going to nail 50/50.
[laughter]
What do you think of
these other b*tches?
Um, I'm not too sure.
With the Salina,
Mistress are very loud.
Well, Salina's loud.
And Luxx can be a little dry.
And Mistress can be kind
of, like, the wild card.
- Like, she might just like...
- Uh-huh.
Run them all over.
Which I'm hoping.
I feel, um--
- [laughs] She saw us.
- She saw us.
Now Marcia talking about me.
b*tch, please.
Ooh.
Not that.
We're not talking
about anybody.
- Don't worry about it.
- Oh, wow.
Now Marcia's starting
her b*tch era.
Marcia's in her villain
all right, I see.
Ah!
I mean, I'm happy that we
ended up with Love Connie,
but I think Charo's
a good celebrity as well.
But girl,
I don't know if Marcia
will, like, match her energy.
I bet Marcia's gonna be like,
- what the f*ck is happening?
- Exactly.
She's gonna get
very thrown, yeah.
Charo's definitely
a hard one.
I do not envy
that group at all.
Do you feel
you're going to give,
- like, a sickening interview?
- I don't know.
Maybe.
I'm glad you
got Charo, though.
- Why?
- 'Cause I feel like
Love Connie
wears a little bit
more makeup than you.
There it is.
Go back to your table.
You're going to
be here with me.
- Right here, OK?
- Yes. Yes, yes, yes.
I'm gonna look beautiful today.
Everybody set?
We're rolling.
You guys look right
into this camera.
It's finally time to
sh**t our "50/50" segment.
Now, this is live, America,
so you only get one take.
Oh my God.
We get to watch
other segments
on a monitor in the
Werkroom, live and in color,
up close and personal.
We get to see what these
other girls doin'.
[all exclaiming]
Welcome to "50/50,"
the show that keeps it 100
with your favorite celebs.
Everybody say love.
Connie!
This daring ingenue's taking
Hollywood into Connie-wood,
one high kick at a time.
Take a look.
- Hi.
- Hello!
It's so lovely to meet you.
We have Love Connie
here today.
Are you prepared to go deep?
Ooh!
[giggles] Connie, you know.
Well, just a little
Sharon Stone for you,
a little Catherine Tramell.
So I'm curious.
You came from the South.
You ended up in Hollywood.
What happened?
You got here.
How did--what played out?
Well, I had won a couple of
local pageants in Louisiana.
And I was currently
representing Miss Stockshow,
which is, you know,
you model in a swimsuit
and then show
your prize heifer.
She goes on these
wild tangents,
and I never know when
they're going to end.
The bus ticket only got me
as far as Waxahachie, Texas,
- but, uh...
- Tell me the story
about a prosthetic leg.
I saw that they were having
a leg wrestling contest
at this local bar,
and I thought, honey,
these gams, baby?
So I'm finding myself having
to, like, pause, be patient.
That's how you talk
- to squirrels, by the way.
- Is it really?
Because I don't know
when she's going to stop.
I'm so curious.
Like, you've achieved
so much in your career.
What's next for Connie?
Oh my God.
Well, I would love my own show.
I mean, I've still
got all my teeth.
I've still got a great rack.
I haven't had
these babies done.
So I just say I'm just
going to get better with age,
if I could only just
get my own show.
I hitched a ride with
the queen of gal-isthenics,
and honey, it got fierce.
Take a look.
Hey, Connie, girl.
- Hi, love.
- You have room for one more?
You know Aunt Connie is
running the kitty car today.
You know, we're at "50/50."
We gotta see the nitty gritty.
Your nemesis, Candy.
- Candy Hernandez?
- Candy Hernandez.
How did you meet Candy,
and how did this feud start?
Candy Hernandez
pulled a fast one on me.
I hate Candy Hernandez!
Oh, I'm so sorry.
[horn blares]
- [laughter]
- Oh my god.
Love Connie is a very
unpredictable person.
- Pedal to the metal!
- Whoo!
So I'm rolling
with the punches.
I will drive this interview and
this golf cart if I have to.
I'm loving this golf cart.
Honey, I don't know
anything about golf,
but all I know is I love
some balls on the nine hole.
Oh, yes.
I love it.
I'm sure you had a great
time driving those golf carts
on the set of Legally Blonde.
How was that?
It was fabulous.
I loved you in
the role of Maurice.
- Oh my God.
- The hairdresser.
You have really been
doing your research.
You know, when you
had that iconic line,
"Oh my God, the bend and snap.
It works every time."
- Do you know what we could do?
- What could we do?
We could blow this joint.
- [gasps] Let's go.
- In fact,
- let's get outta here!
- Where are we going?
Move these guys.
Mayday!
Out of control golf cart.
Somebody call
Ghostbusters, please.
Who are you gonna call?
Oh my God.
No brakes!
No, there's no brakes!
Did you have any
more questions for me
before we die?
Um, what's your
favorite food?
- [queens cackle]
- We're gonna die,
and I'm wearing
my grandmother's panties.
Grab the wheel!
Oh my God!
[crashing]
- Oh!
- Oh.
[upbeat theme music]
I had the
opportunity to satisfy
my sweet tooth with Connie
as we discussed
her passion for icing cakes.
Take a look.
We've got some
lovely cupcakes here.
Do you want to,
like, decorate any?
Is that what we're doing?
Of course.
Walk us through--
you know,
we're here to take a look
into your favorite pastime.
Now, I think most people
would be shocked to know
that you
love to frost cupcakes.
Connie makes her own
little chocolate drops
from her own little factory.
Now, I know you
have a sweet tooth.
What's your secret to keeping
your dynamite figure, baby?
Oh, look.
I'm good at this.
You can do all kinds
of little designs.
What is that, a rosebud?
Or a prolapse.
The b*tch
is crazier than I ever
thought she was going to be.
What is the most
rewarding project
you've had the opportunity
to work on in your career?
I keep thinking
I have been scratching
my ass or something here.
I don't know what is going on.
Oh, no.
Mistress doesn't know how
to f*cking read this b*tch.
That's real tea.
Honey, draw a vag*na.
Miss Connie is sending Miss
Mistress for a f*cking loop.
[laughs]
I took jazz classes
with f*cking
Elizabeth Berkley, too.
Well, thank you so much,
Love Connie.
It has been an amazing journey.
And I feel like I
know you even more.
- Oh, really?
- I do.
Well, I've lied
about everything
I talked about today.
You don't really
know me at all.
What makes you think
I won't cut you?
Scene!
Thank you for
joining us on "50/50."
all: Good night.
[laughter]
And we're clear.
- Thank you, ladies.
- Thank you.
When my segment is over,
I cannot help but breathe
a big sigh of relief.
[sighs]
And I'm about
to go learn to lip sync
because I feel like
I'm in the bottom.
[upbeat music]
Welcome to 50/50,
a show that gives you
And 50% mosh.
Today, we are talking
to the legendary Charo.
I got a chance to make
a salad with Charo.
Take a look.
- Hi!
- Mwa, mwa.
Oh my gosh.
I love you so much.
Oh, I'm so excited.
We gonna make
a hell of a salad.
- Before we start cooking...
- Uh-huh.
I know you come from Hawaii.
- I am from Hawaii, yeah.
- Aloha.
And you've lived in
Hawaii for a long time.
I live in Hawaii. OK.
Let's say something
right now to everybody.
[speaking Hawaiian]
You know what that means?
"Your crazy pig
is eating my papaya."
Interacting with Charo--
it's--it's half fangirling.
Coochie coochie.
Chef Coochie.
Oh my gosh, I get to
witness it in person.
And half of, oh,
this is a challenge.
I tell you where we go
when you got
everything you see here--
you pretend that you are a cat.
Meow, meow, meow, meow.
Meow, meow, meow.
[laughter]
[indistinct chatter]
[laughter]
I'm a big fan of
all your variety appearances
like in "Carol Burnett"
and "Sonny and Cher."
How was it working, like,
being so well-rounded?
You had to do
acting and comedy.
I juggling.
Then, one day, I was in
Cohasset, Massachusetts,
and I open my legs,
and I get pregnant.
Oh!
[laughs] Just like that.
She [indistinct] they say
the hell I'm talking about.
In all these years,
who needs this?
[all cackling]
I follow you on Instagram.
Follow her at OfficialCharo.
Coochie, coochie, Charo.
I mean,
this interview is chaotic.
Very good.
It look like you
had done that before.
I've tossed
a salad in my day.
Behave, my child.
But listen, Miss Sasha
is hanging in there.
[speaking Hawaiian]
"Cappa puy poo-ha-ah."
At the end of my segment,
to sum it all up,
I would have to say, your
crazy pig is eating my papaya.
- Salud.
- Salud.
Aloha.
- Coochie coochie.
- Coochie coochie.
I had a heartfelt
conversation with Charo
where I got some pretty
incredible life advice.
Let's take a look.
Mwa.
Mwa.
I have to say,
sitting across from you
is pretty incredible.
You've had a long
and illustrious career.
Upon arrival,
you were kind of branded
as the coochie coochie girl.
Do you ever feel that that
limited you in any way
in your career?
Coochie coochie
be my fun,
but I reached a point in my
life that I had to change.
Uh-huh.
I'm going to play a city,
just break it down.
And they said, you're
going to get broke.
I feel like Marcia's having
a little bit of a hard time
understanding Charo.
The bigger down low
in my soul city.
Baby, you name it, online.
Girl, all my aunties
talk like that,
so I could
understand everything
that she was saying,
and it was just Marcia
like this for me.
Oh.
[laughs]
I wish you grew up like me.
I grew up free, like bird.
- It sounds like it.
- I was.
You know the pleasure
to sleep on a tree?
Mm-hmm.
Well, don't do it now.
What is she doing
on top of a tree?
They call the police.
Oh, great.
[laughs]
We have one final
question for you, Charo.
OK. Ask me.
It's the one that is
on everybody's lips.
Yeah.
How old are you really?
That's a helluva
good question, Marcia.
- I am an old b*tch.
- Uh-huh.
According to
my latest record...
I came to America with
Christopher Columbus.
[laughs]
And he was hot.
Thank you for joining us
on "50/50."
And remember...
If you can't love yourself...
How the hell are you gonna...
Coochie, coochie,
coochie, coochie, coochie?
We're here today
with Frankie Grande.
I sit down with the
dancing queen himself.
Let's take a look.
Now, first of all, I
have to congratulate you.
- Yes.
- You are a married man now.
- I am a married man.
- Oh you did good.
Thank you.
- I knew you would.
- Thank you so much, honey.
Now, you had a little
bit of a brush with death.
You had a near-fatal... bite.
I need to hear about this
because it is my worst fear.
I was doing a lot of
charity work in South Africa.
And I went to a
medicine man's hut--
well, I think he
sensed my skepticism,
and I think he stuck
a spider on me.
'Cause I looked down,
and there was a spider,
and it bit me.
On the flight home, my leg blew
up to the size of a balloon.
And the CDC came and gave me,
like, a special juice.
And then I went down in, like...
- Horrifying.
- An hour.
Now, on a happier note,
I know you're a huge
- sci-fi fan, right?
- Yes, huge sci-fi--
Favorite sci-fi
movie of all time?
- "Aliens."
- Is "Aliens" the one
- with the big robot?
- Yes.
"Get away from her...
both: You b*tch!"
[laughter]
This role
was built for Loosey.
Barbara Walters, Steve--
I'm like, that is literally
Loosey's character of drag.
So she has this in the bag.
I love, love, love.
We gotta get her on the show.
- We'll do a three-way...
- Oh.
- Interview.
- That sounds great.
Or whatever.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, three-way whatever.
A three-way whatever.
I visited Frankie on set,
where we chatted about life
on and off screen,
and nothing was off limits.
Well, hello.
[both screaming]
Power walking.
Do you power walk often?
I am so obsessed with
getting my steps up
that sometimes
I'll just swing my arms.
What else do you like
to do other than that?
I'm actually weighting
and lifting now.
- Are you really?
- A whole new thing.
I'm married now.
How long have
you been married?
I've been married for a month
when this is being filmed.
- A month?
- I know.
- Congratulations.
- Isn't that crazy?
Anetra I was the
most nervous about
just because I know
she's really quiet.
Do some grapevines,
back steps.
I just want to
show off my legs.
Oh my God.
I look like
I'm in "The Music Man."
And she's surprising me.
When did you come out?
I came out when
I was 21 years old.
I actually came out to
my fraternity first.
Wow.
Sigma Phi Epsilon,
shout out to y'all.
You ran so we could strut.
[laughs] And there were
many people before me.
Yas. Period.
Well, thank you for
exhausting yourself
and stretching my legs.
- I hit my goal.
- You did?
Yay!
Work. Bam!
After working up quite
an appetite with Anetra,
I got the chance to visit
Frankie in his kitchen.
Mm.
Let's check
it out.
[Italian accent] Ciao,
welcome to my kitchen.
Oh, I'm so happy to be here.
It was so nice for you
to come to my kitchen.
This is Frankie Grande's
Pizza Kitchen.
- Starting with the dough...
- OK.
You just want to start with
the spinning and the tossing.
- Are we ready?
- Uh...
[giggles] Here we go.
So you want to pull
it apart a little bit.
And you want to spin and toss. OK.
- There we go.
- OK.
Here we go.
This should have been a
challenge on "Big Brother."
I would have won.
Now we're going to put
on the tomato sauce.
- A little sauce?
- Yeah, a little sauce.
- A little saucey.
- You know, that's great.
That's a great shape.
I love a square pizza.
Whatever shape
you have in your heart.
I should have did a heart.
- Speaking of hearts...
- Yes.
- Speaking of hearts.
- Oh, yes, please.
I know that you just recently
got, you know, married.
Does he enjoy your meatballs?
Oh, he certainly does.
Are they spicy meatballs?
They are spicy
Italian meatballs.
Welcome to
Frankini's kitchen, baby.
Oh, mwa.
He's interviewing Malaysia
more than Malaysia's
interviewing Frankie.
Are you, uh, preferring the
one on the right or the left?
- Um...
- AKA, are you a size queen?
I don't really see Malaysia
shining in this moment.
[Italian accent] Frankie,
we got the pizza going,
and we're going to
put it in the oven.
b*tch,
this is a hot-ass mess.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
I don't know what's worse,
the conversation and dialogue,
or Malaysia's synthetic bob.
Mmm.
Mmm.
[both mmm-ing]
Thank you for joining us
on "50/50."
I'm like, oh, shit.
I'm just hoping that somebody
else did worse than me.
Oh.
Ooh!
Y'all ready for Beyoncé?
Girl, we're ready to
get up into the geek.
Beyoncé.
Category is Night of
A Thousand Beyoncés,
or Night of Eight Beyoncés.
Beyoncé Knowles.
Elimination
is happening tonight.
And I'm on thin ice, but
I'ma still snatch this mug.
I'ma going to give
my Beyoncé fantasy,
and we will just see
how this plays out.
So fun fact,
y'all, every time
everybody asks me what's your
name, I'm like, oh, Sasha.
And they're like, oh, Sasha
Fierce, just like Beyoncé.
I'm like, well, I was Sasha
before the album came out.
[laughter]
For the record, Sasha Colby
came before Sasha Fierce.
Just going to put
that out there.
And I have, like,
a conspiracy theory
that because I knew
some of the dancers
back when she did the Sasha
Fierce thing, then, like,
they are good friends of
mine, so I was like, hmm.
Interesting.
Maybe, like, she could
have seen me at one point,
and, like--
Maybe Beyoncé may have
seen one of my performances
and thought that that
was fierce, Sasha.
Sasha Fierce.
I'm just going to say,
and until Beyoncé
tells me to my face that it's
a lie, I'm going to keep it.
I'm gagged at this
story right now.
Sasha, what?
So that's an
invitation for Beyoncé
to come talk to me, babe.
- I believe it.
- Wow.
What a lovely fairy tale.
[laughs]
Oh, Beyoncé, a legend.
["Covergirl" begins]
[RuPaul laughing]
[singing] Covergirl,
put the bass in your walk
[singing] Head to toe,
let your whole body talk
And... what?
Welcome to the main stage
of "RuPaul's Drag Race"
Michelle Visage
and media mogul T.S. Madison.
This week,
we challenged our queens
to show off their interviewing
skills on "50/50."
And tonight on the runway,
category is
Night of a Thousand Beyoncés.
Racers, start your engines,
and may the best
drag queen win.
[singing] The run
is your runway
Up first, Luxx Noir London
at the 2006
Kennedy Center Honors
honoring Tina Turner.
I am serving
a direct recreation
of a Bob Mackie dress.
Perfection,
But what else can
you expect from me?
You're born naked,
and the rest is Bob Mackie.
Amen.
Mistress Isabelle Brooks.
At the 2001 Grammy Awards.
Oh, Michelle,
can you handle this?
Yes, I can.
I love Destiny's Child-era
Beyoncé.
We are independent women.
We are survivors.
And, Ru, we can pay my
bill, bill, bills, OK?
Destiny's conjoined triplets.
[laughter]
Salina EsTittes
at the 2004 Grammy Awards.
My Grammys today are
the RuPaul Chia Pets.
Baby, I feel sexy.
I feel glamour.
I feel gorgeous and beautiful.
b*tch, I'm Beyoncé.
I'd like to thank the
Academy, the hair academy.
Sasha Colby at
the 2006 BET Awards.
Ooh, is that a Tina Knowles
original, a TKO?
I am in my Deja Vu era.
I'm giving you body-ody-ody
'cause no one else can.
I'm giving you "Be-yon-cé."
Sasha Colby is Sasha Fierce.
Marcia, Marcia, Marcia,
at the Title X
Brooklyn 2017 charity event.
Baby, I'm drunk
in love with this.
I'm a vision
in emerald green.
I look soft to the touch,
and I've got
Beyoncé's half up, half down.
This ponytail could
stand up all by itself.
Yeah, I'm giving
this the green light.
Anetra, the On the Run tour.
Bow down, b*tches.
I'm trying to give you
all of this attitude,
the stomp, presence.
The waist is waisting,
the hips are hipping,
and the breasts are breasting.
- All hell Queen B.
- That's it.
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx, the
It's god, honey.
Black is King.
Baby, I'm giving you curves.
I'm giving you big thighs
because they save lives.
It's just very fashion forward.
I feel like it's a look.
She got love on
top and bottom.
Loosey LaDuca, the 2011 VMAs.
I have chosen the iconic
performance of "Love on Top"
and the big reveal of
the Beyoncé baby bump.
What to expect when
you're expecting Beyoncé.
I am letting my hair
just bounce in the wind.
If you don't have
wind in the hair,
you are not Beyoncé, sweetheart.
Oh, ain't no
more single ladies.
Welcome, Queens.
I've made some decisions.
Marcia, Marcia, Marcia,
Anetra, you are both safe.
You may leave the stage.
Ladies, now it's time for
the judges' critiques.
Starting with Luxx Noir London.
Hi.
You had a tough one.
Love Connie will just
throw anything at you.
Pedal to the metal!
And I thought you
handled it really well.
I thought the way you
interviewed was genuine,
and I liked your
line of questioning.
And you brought things back.
You were kind of matching
Connie tit for tat,
and I enjoyed that.
This is an iconic
look for you.
[squeals] - It's great.
I'm sure Mr. Mackie
will love that, too.
I hope he does.
And a little trivia.
The outfit that Beyoncé wore--
I actually wore that dress
to an event years ago.
The outfit was made
for Linda Carter.
- You look great, kiddo.
- Thank you.
I really, really
appreciate that.
Up next,
Mistress Isabelle Brooks.
Let's start in the kitchen.
I was a little
disappointed because you
want to make the audience
do this stuff with you.
I'm good at this.
Some of the warmth of
relating over the food
was missing.
But this, I love.
And I think tonight
is so particularly you
with the joke,
but done in glamour.
You know how to paint,
but I think
this is the most beautiful
you have ever looked.
Thank you.
This look is your
destiny, child.
[laughter]
Up next, Salina EsTittes.
- You look so pretty tonight.
- Thank you.
This honey hair color
is so beautiful on you.
I love it.
In your challenge, you had
some really strong moments.
I think when you started losing
me was you kept talking over.
- But, uh--
- Tell me the story...
I was going to ask a lot
more deeper questions,
but she was going
off the deep end.
So I was just like,
how can I pick the ball up
with where she's going?
And then I would be
like, oh, my God,
uh, this because you said it.
You were stuck
in your head a bit,
and you can never let
what's going on in your head
show on your face.
Honey, you gotta treat that
like an ugly piece
of trade, girl.
You got to be like...
you cute, you know?
Yeah, I was, like, probably
just stuck in my head
- thinking of the next...
- Yeah.
- Thing to say
- It's a rookie mistake.
The key to interviewing
is listening.
Up next, Sasha Colby.
Tonight on the runway,
it's almost
identical to what B. wore.
It's just wonderful.
- In the challenge...
- Coochie, coochie.
Chef Coochie.
You have Charo, who
has big d*ck energy, OK?
You matched it enough
without trying to one-up her,
but your generosity
with her is what you
need with somebody like her.
And your ease with letting
her be her,
just going
with it--that felt so good.
My favorite part--
you throwing the cards away,
which let the audience know
we're going to have
some fun here.
But what I liked the
most, you and Charo
both spoke to the audience.
You acknowledged me
as a viewer.
Have you hosted
television before?
- In my dreams.
- Oh.
In all of my dreams.
Listen, kiddo,
you are a natural at it.
So glad you all liked it.
Thank you.
Up next,
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx.
You look beautiful tonight.
I love this look.
I think you did it well.
- All the single ladies, baby.
- Yes.
But, uh, your challenge.
When you walked in the
kitchen, the roles switched.
AKA, are you a size queen?
It became
his interview of you.
Right.
Were you scared of this
challenge?
Not necessarily scared.
I think, like you say,
he has a big personality.
I was kind of taken back.
Look how big your personality
is for what you came out in.
You have to display
that in the challenge.
And you from Dade County, girl?
Uh-huh!
You got to do better, girl.
In my mind, I think
I'm super confident.
And then I shut down
because I get intimidated.
What do you think
is stopping you?
I think sometimes I just
tell myself I'd rather
be safe than, you know, sorry.
Not overdo it, you know?
All right.
Thank you.
Up next, Loosey LaDuca.
Hey.
Somehow you made that drag
tuxedo moment of Beyoncé
revealing her pregnancy
even draggier.
Your challenge--
you have to meet
your guests where they are.
both: You b*tch!
[laughter]
And you did that.
Thank you.
He felt comfortable
in your presence, which
is what we often talk about.
And we got some real Frankie.
- Really, really well done.
- Thank you.
Although
I've got to tell you,
he actually accused a
witchdoctor in South Africa
of sticking a spider on--
I wanted you to say,
wait a minute, hold up.
There was a follow up
question, an obvious one.
But we didn't get there.
That's my only mark.
- I wanted that follow up.
- Right.
- Thank you, Loosey.
- Thank you, Ru.
Thank you, ladies.
I think we've heard enough.
While you on untuck
in the Werkroom,
the judges and I
will deliberate.
Welcome back, ladies.
I've made some decisions.
Luxx Noir London, you are safe.
Thank you.
Sasha Colby,
this week you are Queen B.
Condragulations.
You are the winner of
this week's challenge.
You've won a cash prize
of 5,000 gualas.
I won?
Again?
Oh!
Loosey LaDuca, you are safe.
Mistress Isabelle Brooks,
the judges were crazy in love
with your runway, but your
Love Connie interview--
not so much.
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
you look gorgeous,
but your interview
was not a dream, girl.
Salina EsTittes, the judges
were warm for your formation,
but in your interview,
you forgot to listen.
[suspenseful music]
Mistress Isabelle Brooks,
you are safe.
Thank you so much.
You may join the other girls.
Salina EsTittes,
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
I'm sorry, my dears, but you
are both up for elimination.
Girl, I'm just holding back
my tears because, like, b*tch,
I got to fight right now.
Let's go.
The time has come
for you to lip sync...
for... your... life.
Child, I want to stay
in this competition.
Baby, I'm going to fight
to the death of me, baby.
Come on, come on.
Start the music.
Good luck,
and don't f*ck it up.

[applause]
Whew-ie.
Woo!
Ladies,
I've made my decision.
[suspenseful music]
Salina EsTittes,
shantay, you stay.
You may join the other girls.
Sorry, Beyoncé.
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
we will always be
dangerously in love with you.
Now, sashay away.
Thank you so much
for this opportunity.
I really appreciate it.
Aw.
[applause]
This whole competition
I've been out of breath.
Now I can finally breathe.
[inhaler puffing]
[laughs] - Oh.
Of course, I wanted to win.
But I am very proud
of what I've done
throughout this competition.
When it comes to
thinking outside the box,
picture me,
Malaysia Babydoll, Babydoll,
Babydoll...
Foxx.
[smooches]
[laughs]
Condragulations, ladies.
And remember, if you can't
love yourself,
how in the hell you gonna
love somebody else?
Can I get an amen up in here?
Amen.
All right, now.
Let the music play.
[singing] A little bit
of love
Goes a long, long way
Lifting you up
to a brighter day
Can you feel the love?
Next time on
"RuPaul's Drag Race"...
You'll be performing at
the Bubbly Comedy Festival.
I bet they get
so white they say,
can I speak to the
manager, please?
We're forgetful.
Wait.
[whisperings] - Oh,
right, right, right.
[clears throat]
You are so funny.
I almost fell out of my skin.
Most of it just
started to fall flat.
It has to be more.
I'm just like,
let the unraveling began.
[dramatic chords]
[singing] A little bit of love
Goes a long, long way
Lifting you up
to a brighter day
A little bit of love
Goes a long, long way
Turn it around
when you up and say
Everybody say
love love love
Love uh uh uh
Love love love
uh uh uh
Love
can you feel the love?
