should be.

Thank you, thank you.

Welcome to RuPaul's Drag Race

Reunited.

- I love you, Ru!

- I love you.

I'll meet you after the show.

Let's get some money, though.

[cheers and applause]

Now, I am beyond excited

that all my girls are back

to help me crown

America's next drag superstar.

[cheers and applause]

[giggling]

But the thing that makes

tonight

and every night

so extra special

is you,

the Drag Race fans.

[cheers and applause]

Honey, you have turned

Monday night into par-tay night!

That's right.

It's true.

I know that you all get

together, get your drink on,

scream sh*t at the TV screen.

I know what you do.

So whether you're watching

in a bar or at a house party

or kiki-ing with

#friendsonline...

[audience laughs]

I want everyone

within the sound of my voice

to scream,

"I'm sick and twisted,

and I'm not gonna take it

anymore!"

Come on, say it with me.

all: I'm sick and twisted,

and I'm not gonna take it

anymore!

- Again.

all: I'm sick and twisted,

and I'm not gonna take it

anymore!

- All right!

[cheers and applause]

So keep your freak flag

flying high.

And from the bottom

of my heart,

thank you for making this season

the biggest

in Drag Race herstory.

It's true.

You know...

RuPaul's Drag Race

isn't about who gets eliminated,

it's about who keeps

coming back.

And tonight, so many

of our queens have returned.

Give it up for

the Drag Race royal box.

[cheers and applause]

Hey, pork chop!

Hey, pork chop!

[laughing]

Now, are you ready for some

reunion realness?

[cheers and applause]

'Cause I have one thing to say.

Gentlemen, start your engines.

And may the best woman...win!

[cheers and applause]

[cheers and applause]

These first three queens

were only here

a few short weeks,

but they made a big splash.

Take a look.

- Hello, boys.

My name is Penny Tration.

I was chosen

in the online voting contest.

- Deeper, Penny Tration.

Girl, you're gonna put

Shelley Winters out of work.

- [laughing]

- My name is Serena ChaCha,

and I'm interested in

fine art drag.

There is, um, a new art movement

called soft sculpture.

It's more about creating

a sculpture

rather than just tailoring.

- Hello, girls.

I'm Monica Beverly Hillz.

I have been called

ghetto,

banjee, trashy.

I was raised in the ghetto.

You know, I'm street smart,

and there's nothing wrong

with that.

- That is a nice ass.

- And it's not padded.

- Monica is slaying the hell

out of Serena,

and I'm very happy.

- We all love you.

- We love you.

[cheers and applause]

- Welcome, ladies.

Welcome.

First up, Penny Tration.

Now, Penny, was it hard to, uh,

go home first?

- It was great.

I got to get away

from these b*tches.

- Oh, okay. All right.

So now, which of the challenges

would you have rocked?

- Oh, I think

the reading challenge

was pretty much my forte.

- Oh, well, today's

your lucky day, darling,

because the library is open!

- Let's start with

a hometown favorite,

the lovely Detox.

Detox, when you walk down

the runway,

I do expect for the credits

to start running

for Gorillas in the Mist.

[laughter]

And to my dear, dear Serena,

I would read you,

but it does appear

life already has.

[audience "ohs"]

- All right.

Okay, well, now, the library

is closed...officially.

Next up, Serena ChaCha.

Now, your art school background

seemed to rub people

the wrong way.

So what would you have done

differently?

- I would've shut my ass up

and worn a sequin dress

and asked to borrow

one of Coco's pair of earrings

and walked down that runway

full of glam.

- Okay, well, which challenge

would you have rocked?

- As a fan of telenovelas,

Luis Fernando Sylvester

Montalban...

[speaking Spanish]

[cheers and applause]

- Escandalo!

Ugh!

Now, a lot of big revelations

happened

on the main stage,

but one of the most moving

came from Monica Beverly Hillz.

It raised a lot of questions

about what is drag

and what is trans.

When we come back,

I'm gonna ask Monica

for some answers.

Don't go away.

- Coming up,

the queens answer

viewer questions.

So let's get this mother

trending.

Are you team Alaska?

Team Jinkx?

Or team Roxxxy?

Let your voice be heard

as we prepare to crown

America's next drag superstar.

- [laughs]

Welcome back

to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

We are just moments away

from finding out which queen

will be crowned America's

next drag superstar,

but first, let's talk

to another fierce queen,

Monica Beverly Hillz.

- Hi, mama.

- Now, Monica, you came

on to the show with passion,

poise, and a secret.

Let's take a look.

Monica, tell me

what's on your mind.

- It's true what you're saying.

There is a lot going

through my head.

I feel I'm not here.

I've just

been holding a secret in,

and I've been trying so hard,

and...

- What secret?

- I'm not just a drag queen.

I'm a transgendered woman.

[cheers and applause]

- Monica...

You know, there's a lot of

confusion out there,

so help everybody out.

Okay, now, can a girl

be a drag queen

and a trans woman

at the same time?

- Yes.

Drag is what I do.

Trans is who I am.

- All right. All right.

Yeah.

And you know, for the record,

everybody out there,

the only requirement

for being here is the desire

to be America's

next drag superstar,

and the only thing we screen for

is charisma, uniqueness,

nerve,

and talent.

[cheers and applause]

Now, uh, how have things been

since the show?

- It's been really great.

I actually got approached

by a cosmetic line.

I'm a face model now, so...

- What?

- I'm good at giving face, baby.

It's my moneymaker.

- Next up, a sexy Puerto Rican

and a bicoastal twosome

that made me do something

I thought I'd never do:

a double elimination.

Oh, sh**t!

[laughs]

Take a look.

Honey Mahogany,

Vivienne Pinay,

neither one of you showed me

the fire it takes to stay.

I'm sending you both home.

Ladies, welcome.

Now, Vivienne, you've been

called

the fishiest queen ever.

Now, do you think

being fishy is enough?

- Well, for me it is.

[laughter]

Now, was it enough

for this season?

Obviously not.

If it were America's

next drag supermodel,

I would definitely be

in the top three.

- All right, all right.

Now...

Girl, I heard a rumor

that you work

for Alyssa Edwards now.

Is that true?

- [laughs]

Well, she likes to think so.

But I haven't received

my first paycheck, so...

- Oh, bitch.

- I don't know.

[audience "ohs"]

[laughing]

But what I have been doing,

I've been doing

makeup tutorials online.

- Oh, okay.

Do you think

I'd look good in makeup?

[audience laughing]

No, I'm serious.

I mean, I wanna try it.

- Well, girl...

[cheers and applause]

Girl, I like you

how you are right now

in your natural state.

- Uh-huh.

- But if you do wanna try it,

I would start off

with a tinted moisturizer.

- Okay, okay.

That's good advice.

Up next, Honey Mahogany.

Yes, mama.

Now, Honey, your style

was criticized

for being a little too

Bed, Bath, and Beyonce,

you know?

Now, what do you have to say

for yourself?

- Well, I found myself

a fab new style team

in San Francisco, where the look

does matter.

[audience cheers, laughs]

And, um, I have a little

something I'd like to show you.

- Oh.

Ooh, ooh.

Ooh!

[cheers and applause]

- All right.

- [mouthing words]

- Wow.

- Do you want me

to turn around?

Should I turn around?

- Yeah.

- Yes.

- All right.

TrimSpa, baby.

[laughter]

Now, Honey, as our first

San Francisco queen,

can you describe

the San Francisco style?

- You know, it's hard to

describe the San Francisco style

because there are so many

different types of drag

in San Francisco.

We have fairies,

we have bearded ladies,

we have glamour queens,

pageant girls,

the Ducal Court...

we've got it all.

- Oh, all right.

I love it!

Now, Honey, San Francisco

is so proud of you

and so am I.

Keep representing, girl.

- Thank you, Ru.

- Up next, Lineysha Sparx.

Now...

[cheers and applause]

So, now, Lineysha,

Charo couldn't make it tonight

to translate, so why don't you

address the audience

in Spanish?

It might be easier

in your native tongue.

- Of course.

[speaking Spanish]

[cheers and applause]

- I couldn't have

said it better myself.

Really, I couldn't have.

Lineysha, you know I love you,

but this season,

you committed a sin

that is unforgivable.

- Yeah?

- Take a look.

Who is playing Diana Ross?

- That would be

Miss Lineysha here.

- Are you familiar with

Diana Ross and the Supremes?

- Um, not really, no.

[glass shattering]

- Okay.

- [laughing]

- Okay.

Lineysha, do you know

who Diana Ross is now?

- Well, right now, yes.

I love...she's banana dance.

That is not...

- That's Josephine Baker, baby.

- Ah, sorry.

Um, no, but it's just kidding.

It's just kidding.

- Okay, so name

a Diana Ross song.

- Diana Ross song?

I know that she move like this.

And she's...

That was...I was practicing.

- Um, immigration?

- Ru! How rude!

[laughter and applause]

- Immigration?

- [giggling]

- Well, you're not alone,

because I know there are

a lot of young'uns out there

that could use a course

in gay miracles.

Pay attention, because there

will be a pop quiz.

Time for your Drag Race

herstory minute.

The reading rainbow

begins with

the one and only Judy Garland.

You know, she played that girl

in the stoner film

about the ruby-red pumps.

The glamorous '40s gave us

broads like Bette Davis,

Joan Crawford,

and Lena Horne.

The '50s dropped

atomic blonde bombshells...

Marilyn Monroe, Doris Day,

and Etta James.

That's right, a sister can have

blonde hair too.

The swinging '60s gave us

the super-duper Supremes,

"Tinta" Turner,

and Barbra Streisand.

Well, hello, gorgeous!

The "me" decade of the 1970s

saw Diana go solo,

Dolly split with Porter,

and Farrah told

Charlie's Angels

to kiss her T&A good-bye.

The '80s were a holiday,

as the rhythm nation showed

its true colors with Madonna,

Janet, and Cyndi.

Oh, and Faye Dunaway

stole my heart

with just three little words:

"No wire hangers!"

The '90s were dominated

by Mimi,

Whitney, Britney, and X-Tina

and a little girl group

goin' by the name

of Destiny's Child.

Which brings us to today's

reigning divas:

Gaga, Beyonce, Katy, and Nicki.

And if you didn't learn

anything else,

just remember one thing:

Cher, Cher, Cher, Cher, stupid.

And that's today's

drag herstory minute.

[laughs]

And, honey, that's just the tip

of the iceberg.

So please tweet me

your favorite divas @RuPaul.

It takes a village, people!

- Coming up...

The final face-off between

fierce rivals

Coco Montrese

and Alyssa Edwards.

Who will be crowned America's

next drag superstar?

Find out when RuPaul's

Drag Race Reunited continues.

- [laughs]

Welcome back

to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

Now, these next two queens

represented

the ultimate contrast

in styles.

One was quiet, ladylike,

and demure,

and the other was, well,

Jade Jolie.

Take a look.

- I'm the sweetest bitch

you'll meet,

but if you come for me,

then you'll see

a whole new side.

Girl, you ain't that pretty.

- Oh.

- Cover girl,

don't cover boy, baby.

You're a dirty bitch.

- I don't understand

why you're trying

to like come for me.

- You had rolls

all over the place in the back.

It was disgusting.

- Back rolls?

- My name is Ivy Winters.

- Are those your pictures

on there?

- They're all my face.

I will figure out a way

to turn it into a costume.

- You make everything

that you wear?

- I do.

- You're mind-blowingly

talented.

- This week's winner is...

Ivy! Ivy!

[echoing]

Ivy Winters!

- Hi, mama.

- [laughs]

Miss Jolie.

You know,

when you first arrived,

everybody thought you were

gonna be the sweet one.

But you turned into

a Sour Patch Kid.

What was going on?

- Me too.

I swear I was America's

sweetheart until I watched it.

I was like,

that's a c**t, honey.

[laughter]

But it was rainbowy

and gorgeous, so it was okay.

- Now, I wanna ask you,

do you regret accusing

Alyssa Edwards of having...

back rolls?

- Oh, my gosh.

- Back rolls?

- [laughs]

I consider Alyssa

one of my very good friends,

and I think she's fabulous

and fierce.

- All right.

Up next, Ivyyyyy Winters!

Now, Ivy, you showcased

one breathtaking outfit

after another.

Now, do you think

the other queens were jealous?

- No, I sew

for a lot of drag queens,

so if you're jealous, you can

always call me.

- Oh, okay. All right.

Well, it pays to advertise.

[laughter]

Do you have any regrets?

- Yes, I would have to say

my Marilyn.

- Oh, is that who you were

playing?

- That's what I was...

[laughs]

- What was it like

to see yourself

as Norma Jean, Miss Thang?

- That was, like, the first time

I've ever tried

impersonating someone.

- Yeah.

- I wish I would've went

with my second choice.

- So what would you have done

if you hadn't done Marilyn?

- I would've done Julia Child.

- Really?

- [as Julia Child]

Bonjour!

Welcome to my kitchen.

My name is Marilyn Monroe.

[cheers and applause]

- Keep that sewing machine

humming away, girl.

Now, Ivy, I've gotta confess.

I wanna tell you why I say,

"Ivyyyyy Winters!"

- Thank God.

- Yes.

Now, to help me with this

explanation,

please welcome the star

of Life With La Toya,

La Toya Jackson.

[cheers and applause]

♪ ♪

- Hi!

- Thank you very much.

- Now, La Toya, you have been

a guest judge

on RuPaul's Drag Race

- [giggles]

- Why do you keep coming back?

- Because I love the show, Ru,

and I love you.

- Aw, thank you.

Thank you.

- I do.

- That's very sweet.

Now, La Toya, in 1989,

you did a pay-per-view concert

called A Sizzling Spectacular.

Do you remember that?

- Sort of, yeah.

- Well, I gotta tell ya.

I became so obsessed

with the way

you introduced

musician Edgar Winters.

Would you introduce him

for me now?

- Okay.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Edgar Winters!

- Yeah, okay.

Well, but I gotta tell ya,

it was more like,

"Ivyyyyy Winterrrrs!"

- Edgarrrrrr Winters!

- I want everybody

in the audience to say it.

all: Ivyyyyy Winters.

- Okay, now, La Toya,

you say Edgar Winters.

- Okay.

Edgarrrr Winters!

[laughter]

- Ivyyyyy Winters!

- No! Edgarrrrr Winters,

you guys!

- [cackling]

- It is.

I don't know.

Now you know.

- La Toya, thank you so much

for clearing that up.

And I know you gotta go,

but would you like to hear

a little bit of our new duet

- Ooh, of course I would.

Oh, wow!

Now, all drag queens

throw shade,

but this season,

Coco Montrese

and Alyssa Edwards

were heavyweight champions.

Let's take a look.

- Oh, boys!

- And then walks in

Coco Montrese.

- Oh, my God!

Alyssa Edwards.

- We haven't spoke

in two years.

- It was pure hell!

- And the Academy Award

goes to...

- f*ck you, Alyssa.

- And look how orange

you f*cking look, girl.

- Now, Miss Alyssa...

- Whoo-whoo!

- Now, you pushed it.

- I'm joking with you.

- I'm not joking, bitch!

- Ladyboys and gentlemen,

it's the rematch of the century!

The Rumble

in the Lipstick Jungle!

Welcome to the center ring

Coco Montrese

and Alyssa Edwards!

[cheers and applause]

- Oh!

both: Mwah. Mwah.

- Ladies, welcome.

- Hello, hello.

- Now, I think I speak

on behalf

of all the Drag Race fans

everywhere when I say,

"Girl, your feud was endless,

honey."

And confusing!

It was so confusing,

am I right?

But I think I finally

figured it out.

So I'm gonna try

and explain it to everyone

just like my play cousin

Cornisha would, okay?

All right.

Alyssa was crowned

Miss Thing USA,

but after she came up,

she wasn't holding it down

no mo'.

- [scoffs]

- So and since Coco

was still thirsty,

she damn well

cold-snatched the crown.

So Alyssa thought Coco

was frontin',

just 'cause she was grinding up

as first runner-up,

you know what I'm saying?

So basically, y'all mad

'cause y'all friends.

Am I right, ladies?

- [laughs]

- Yeah!

- That's what I thought.

- That's it.

- That's what I thought.

- I will say that coming

into it and seeing Coco,

I really wasn't bothered so much

about the pageant drama...

More or less how we were going

to be interacting

with each other.

- Yes. Okay.

So, Coco, what was it like

hearing the other queens say

that your makeup was busted?

- I mean, watching myself

back on TV,

I was like, "Ooh!

You do look like a Dorito."

[laughter]

But I think I got it now,

I think.

[cheers and applause]

- It looks good.

Well, Coco and Alyssa,

your lip-sync battle

was epic,

and I'm not the only one

who thinks so.

Watch this.

- Hi, Alyssa. Hi, Coco.

It was so exciting for me

to see you two ladies

lip-sync to my song

Cold Hearted Snake

during this year's

Drag Race.

If it were up to me,

neither of you'd go home.

You were fantastic.

Just remember this, ladies.

America loves you,

and so do I.

And so does Thumbelina.

[cheers and applause]

- Coco and Alyssa,

stay right where you are.

I'm not through with you yet.

- ♪ I feel like dancing ♪

- Coming up, Detox comes clean,

from the final three

when RuPaul's Drag Race

Reunited continues.

- [laughs]

Welcome back

to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

I'm here

with best frenemies

Coco Montrese

and Alyssa Edwards.

Now, Alyssa, your father

sent a message

and it really did bring

everyone to tears, you know?

Let's take a look at that.

- Oh, gosh.

- Somebody's dad

is on the phone.

- I know it's not mine.

My dad wouldn't even know

how to use the Skype.

[chuckles]

- Hey, Alyssa, this is Dad.

- Alyssa...

- [gasps]

- I just wanted you to know...

[voice breaks]

That I'm proud of you.

And now I'm not ashamed

to tell people

that my son's gay.

- Oh, oh, my God.

[crying]

- Wow, wow.

- Ooh.

[applause]

- So, Alyssa...

what's happened with your dad

since the show aired?

- For the very first time

in my life,

I'm starting to feel

forgiveness.

It's the most powerful feeling

one could ever feel,

and we are working on developing

a relationship.

My father is a grandfather,

and everything

that he couldn't do

for me or my siblings,

he's making up for with my niece

and nephews.

- I love it. I love it.

[cheers and applause]

That's right.

You know, RuPaul's Drag Race...

still bringing families

together.

[laughter]

It's true.

Now, Alyssa,

Santino accused you

of wearing the worst dress

in five seasons.

But sometimes, the memory can

play tricks on us.

Take a look.

There's corn hanging

from her hand!

[laughter]

- It's not just an outfit,

it's a lifestyle.

[all screaming]

[laughter]

[buzzer]

- She's a little frosty.

- I see a lot of armpit.

Like, armpit!

- But it's fresh.

[laughter]

- ChaCha.

- She has to start thinking

about the way she's gonna

execute her fashions.

- Well, she ex*cuted this

fashion.

[laughter]

- Yes, honey,

this is a two-page spread.

- Ugh, it looks like a couch

from Rent-a-Center.

- Oh, Lord.

- Well, right now,

you're a mess.

Things are falling off.

No one can accuse you

of not having

a great pair of legs.

- [laughs]

- First of all.

[laughter and applause]

- No T, no shade, ladies.

Now, Santino.

- Yes?

- Do you still think Alyssa's

dress is the worst

in five seasons?

- I do.

[laughter]

And this is why, okay?

- Can we take a vote?

Can we take a vote?

- This is why.

Every season, Ru asks the queens

to make a dress

and do it

in four to six hours.

Alyssa, you brought that dress

with you.

[laughter]

You brought that dress

with you.

That dress, it doesn't look

as bad on TV

as it did in person, but...

[audience "ohs"]

But I tweeted to you,

I said,

"You know, the thing I hope

for Alyssa

"is that she can tour the world

"so that everyone can see

the worst dress

in Drag Race history."

[laughter and applause]

- You know, I'm sensing

a lot of sexual tension

between you two.

I mean, you guys,

I think y'all need to hook up,

and make this sh*t happen.

Y'all need to go and f*ck,

you know what I'm saying?

[laughter and applause]

You two. You two.

[cheers and applause]

- Yeah!

- That's...that's what needs

to happen.

- Yeah.

- That's exactly

what needs to happen.

- Now, our next queen

was one of the best ever

in the history of Drag Race.

Don't believe me?

Just ask her.

Take a look.

- Wow.

[cheers and applause]

My name is Detox,

and I am 27 years old.

- How many black cocks

had to die for that outfit?

- [laughs]

- My tits are bouncing

everywhere.

I have a great body,

so why not show it off?

The only thing

I haven't had done

is my knees and my nose

and my big toe.

And I'm the queen bee,

so eat it up

and crown it.

[cheers and applause]

- Detox, welcome!

Welcome, Detox.

All right, first question.

Why it gotta be gray?

- [laughs]

Um, well, it was a gray day

in Los Angeles

when I got kicked off, so...

- Oh, okay.

- Was it not?

- Yeah.

Now, Detox, coming into

this competition,

you were one fierce

and funny queen.

- I was?

- Yes, and now that

the competition's over,

girl, you still are.

How you feelin'?

- I'm feeling amazing.

It's been, like, the most

magical experience

I've ever had.

It's been a complete blast,

and the fact that I'm able

to tour the world

with some of my best girlfriends

and do something

that I love and art of drag

that I love so much

is just beyond amazing to me,

and I'm so happy and thrilled.

- I love your collaborations

with Willam and Vicky Vox.

Now, I heard that you were all

recently performing in Dubai.

- Yeah.

Li-li-li-li-li-li-li!

- Did you have to wear a burka?

- No, we wanted to wear burkas,

but then we just said

f*ck it,

and we're sluts.

I mean, hello, look at Willam.

That's his aesthetic.

- Now, you were also outspoken

in your criticism

of some of the younger queens.

Do you still feel that they

treated the show as...

[old woman voice]

Rupaul's School for Girls?

- There were certain girls...

like, some of the larger names

and the people that have been

in the industry

for a long time

that would be torn apart

for doing

what they do the best,

whereas some of the judges

were treating them

as, you know, students.

Yes, you.

- Are you talking to Santino?

- I'm talking to both of 'em,

Santino and Michelle.

- Oh.

[laughs]

- I don't give...y'all know

I don't give two shits.

[laughter and cheering]

- Now, just between us girls...

- Mm-hmm.

- As a member of Rolaskatox...

- Mm-hmm.

- Who should be crowned

America's next drag superstar?

- Detox.

- [laughs]

[cheers and applause]

But...yeah, you're not eligible.

Oh, whatever.

- [laughs]

- Thanks for sharing, Detox.

Now, before I go any further,

I'd like to take this moment

to say something

I've actually never said

on national television before.

Can you bring the camera closer?

[laughter]

Closer.

Now, back the f*ck up.

Not that close.

[sighs]

Okay, this is hard for me.

Due to the fact that her thighs

spread just like...

♪ Peanut, peanut, peanut... ♪

♪ P-p-peanut, peanut,

peanut... ♪

♪ Peanut butter... ♪

♪ P-p-p-peanut butter... ♪

♪ Peanut butter,

Don't go anywhere.

We'll be right back

with the final three, hunty.

- Coming up, we'll announce

the viewer's choice

for Miss Congeniality.

Who should be America's

next drag superstar?

Are you team Alaska,

team Jinkx, or team Roxxxy?

Let's keep things trending

as RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited

keeps on keepin' on.

- [laughs]

Welcome back

to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

And now, the reason

we're all here tonight.

Please welcome back

to the stages the final three.

Alaska.

Jinkx Monsoon.

Roxxxy Andrews.

Welcome, ladies.

You look sickening.

Now, I have so much

I have to ask you,

but first, we're gonna

take some questions

from the fans.

Inquiring minds want to know.

This first one here

is for Jinkx.

The Duchess of Dork

wants to know

about your crush on Ivyyyy.

"Did you guys ever hook up

after the show?"

- Well, when you're held

in captivity

in a little pink hamster cage,

eventually, you just look

for the cutest person

in the room,

and I chose Ivy Winters.

[laughter]

- You know, Ivy,

was there a love connection?

- I was actually shocked

when I was watching

the episode with my boyfriend...

- Me too.

- And he was like, "Oh."

- I didn't know

they were gonna air that.

[laughter]

But nothing ever came of it,

and we're actually

just very good friends,

you know,

and I've met her boyfriend,

he's very charming.

- I mean, honestly, wha...

I mean, really,

what's the problem?

I mean, triads

are really in right now.

- [laughs]

- And honestly,

I could see a spin-off show

like, you know,

Drag Sister Wives

or something like that.

All right, this next question

is for Alaska.

Oscar asks, "Do you think

being part of Rolaskatox

helped or hurt you?"

- I knew Detox

from a long time ago,

and she knew Roxxxy

from a long time ago,

so we were just, like,

friends,

and we needed a prescription

drug for gagging,

so we called it Rolaskatox.

- [laughs]

- I don't think it really

hurt me,

but Michelle hated it.

And she called us "Rolodex."

I don't even know

what a Rolodex is!

[laughter and applause]

- Now, Roxxxy, what about you?

Do you think it helped

or hurt you?

- To me, it was never,

you know,

"Well, I'm gonna be

on Survivor right now,"

and be like,

"This is my alliance,

"and we're gonna stick together

and get everybody out of here."

It was never that,

so when she said

she wanted to go off

on her own,

we were like, "Girl,

we love you no matter what."

Like, "Go on and do your thing

if that's what you feel

you need to do."

- Jinkx, you were not

in Rolaskatox.

What are your thoughts?

Did you feel alienated by it?

- Well, you know, cliques

can either help or hinder you.

They can be a big distraction,

but even though they had

a clique, I had a mantra.

[laughter]

- Which was?

- Let's say it together,

ladies and gentlemen.

all: Water off a duck's back.

[laughter]

- Now, this next question

is for Roxxxy.

Gwen asks,

"Do you honestly feel

"that comedy drag

is insulting,

or was that you just playing

mind games?"

- You know, I take drag very,

very seriously,

and sometimes...

I noticed on the show...

too seriously.

And no, it's not insulting

at all whatsoever,

and you know,

they're my complete opposites,

and that's what

makes them magic,

and I can learn a lot

from them.

- All right.

Now, this next question

is from Johnny B.

This is for Alyssa.

"Have you figured out

what Alyssa's secret is yet?"

[laughter and cheers]

- Well, Johnny, if I told you,

it wouldn't be a secret.

- So is...that's a "No,

you don't know what it is"?

[laughter]

- It's 9 inches

and fully functional.

- Oh, my God!

[laughs]

[cheers and applause]

Not so secret anymore,

is it?

Now, this next question

is to all the queens.

Ian asks, "What motivated you

to do the show,

the title or the $100,000?"

Let's start here with Alaska.

- Um, what motivated me

was the fact

that I auditioned

for every single season

and never made it,

so it eventually became

a personal vendetta

to get on the program.

[laughter and cheers]

- And what about you?

- Honestly, since I was

five years old,

this is what I wanted to do.

You know...

- This show was on

when you were five years old?

- No, I used to say...

I used to watch

Death Becomes Her,

and I knew I wanted to grow up

to be Meryl Streep.

[cheers and applause]

- All right, Roxxxy,

title or moola?

- Definitely the title

and the competition.

I'm a pageant girl.

I like to compete,

and that was the platform

to show the world

that I could be

America's next drag superstar

and compete with

the best of the best,

which,

I think this season is the best

of the best.

Nothing against the other ones.

[laughter and jeering]

- Now, you know, every year,

we ask our fans to vote

for Miss Congeniality,

and this year,

the choice was tougher

than ever.

Now, to help me bestow

this honor, please welcome

last year's Miss Congeniality,

Latrice Royale.

[cheers and applause]

Hey, mommy.

- Hey!

- Looking good.

- And feeling gorgeous, baby.

- Hey.

Now, Latrice, would you please

do us the honors?

- This year's Miss Congeniality

is...

[suspenseful music]

Ivyyyyy Winters!

- Condragulations, Ivy.

You have won a six-night stay

plus airfare

for you and a guest

from Hilton Hotels and Resorts.

Now, you can stay Hilton.

Go out at one of their



- Oh, my gosh.

Oh, thank you guys so much.

Thank you so much.

I feel like I just won!

Thank you, mwah.

- All right, Ivy.

Now, sissy that walk.

Sissy that walk.

[cheers and applause]

- I love you.

- Who will be crowned

America's next drag superstar?

Are you team Alaska,

team Jinkx,

or team Roxxxy?

Keep tweeting,

and find out when

RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited

continues.

- [laughs]

Welcome back

to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

Now, I'm here with

our final three: Alaska...

[cheers and applause]

Jinkx Monsoon...

[cheers and applause]

And Roxxxy Andrews!

[cheers and applause]

Now, in less time

than it takes

to microwave

a chicken pot pie,

one of them will be crowned

America's next drag superstar.

Not only did these three queens

snatch our hearts, but they

tickled our funny bones.

Take a look.

Direct from Grey Gardens,

it's little Edie Beale.

- Oh, hi, RuPaul.

- How is big Edie doing?

- She's always begging

for the pate,

but the label is faded.

I can never tell if it's pate

or if it's giblets for the cats.

[laughter]

- My old, old friend,

Lady Bunny.

- You know, the last time

I had a battle of the browns

was about ten minutes ago

in my dressing room.

[laughter]

- Tamar Braxton!

- Get your life.

- Paula Deen is out of control.

This morning, she put a stick

of butter...

- On her...boom!

Louboutins,

'cause her fat-ass feet

don't fit in 'em.

[laughter]

Boom, boom, baby.

Rock, rock.

- [laughs]

Now, Alaska, were you nervous

to play a character like

Lady Bunny, who's you know,

already very funny?

- I was really nervous,

'cause she's so old.

[laughter]

- [gasping laugh]

- And I was gonna do

Michelle Obama,

but that was already taken,

so...

[laughter]

- Oh!

- Now, when Coco

and some of the other queens

hadn't heard

of Grey Gardens,

it caused quite the controversy

online.

- Quite the scandal, really.

[laughter]

[cheers and applause]

- Now, Jinkx, were you surprised

by that?

- Uh...I was surprised by

America's reaction.

I didn't know that many people

knew about her,

but I was thrilled to see it,

you know?

- All right.

Roxxxy, now, you say you're not

a comedy queen,

but your Tamar Braxton

slayed the children

dot com, girl.

- Dot com.

- Yes.

- I wanted to do somebody

that I knew

could be funny off the bat.

Her personality

is so off-the-wall

that if you didn't know her,

you wanted to laugh at her,

so that's why

I went with Tamar.

I love you, Tamar.

- Well, they say imitation

is the sincerest form

of flattery,

but sometimes, it could really

piss people off.

Let's take a look.

The final three are so bitchy,

they don't just throw shade,

they "blank" it.

- Well, I don't know them

personally,

so I said they airmail it,

though that's frightfully

expensive.

Hi, Jinkx, it's me, Bebe Wood

from The New Normal.

You do the second-best

impression of little Edie.

- [laughs]

- I just know Ru's

going to make

the staunch decision.

- [squeals]

- Good luck,

and don't funk it up.

- [screaming laugh]

- Lady Bunny, same question.

- They throw it so hard

that it casts

more of a shadow than

Alyssa Edwards' overbite

on her nonexistent chin.

[laughter]

Alaska, I wanted to tell you

that your impersonation of me

was spot on.

And I'm gonna get you for that.

[laughter]

- All right, Tamar Braxton!

- They do that on over-the-top

shade dot com, okay?

Boom!

Get your life.

[laughter]

Where my Roxxxy at?

She is my queen dot com,

and I know she fixin' to do me

proud, okay?

Boom! Yes!

- Boom!

[laughter]

- I love it!

I love it.

Condragulations, ladies,

you're a hit.

Now, ladies, it's time to get

serious.

Assume the position, because I'm

about to do one final

examination of your charisma,

uniqueness, nerve, and talent.

I hope you showered.

First up, Alaska.

Hi-ee.

- Hi-ee.

- Hi-ee!

- Hi-ee!

[laughter]

- Now, your wicked wit

and junkyard couture

have served you well

in your journey from tragic

to magic.

Let's take a look.

- Hi-ee.

Hi-ee. Hi-ee!

My name is Alaska.

- You're finally here.

- I know, yay.

- A tired, second-rate version

of your husband.

- Ohh!

[both grunt]

- Isn't Sharon the superstar

of the relationship?

- I had to choose,

am I gonna

be bitter

or become her biggest fan?

♪ Can I get a... ♪

[singing over each other]

- Whoa, stop there.

- Don't worry about your group,

whoever you're with.

Worry about you.

Something's missing, Alaska.

Bring it.

- Dangerous.

Flawless.

Overpriced.

- You're the winner

of this challenge.

- Ah!

- You are the winner

of this week's challenge.

- Ah!

I am the queen

who takes the tragic

and turns it into magic.

I take trash and turn it into

treasure,

and having never fallen

into the bottom two,

I am Alaska,

and I am America's next

drag superstar!

[echoing]

Thank you.

[cheers and applause]

- I love it.

Now, Alaska,

what has Drag Race meant to you?

- It's just, like...like, I

can't even believe

I'm sitting

in this spot right now,

and all these

f*cking people are here.

Hi-ee!

all: Hi-ee!

- Now, Alaska, you're part

of a drag super couple.

Now, is that a blessing

or a curse?

- I think it's an awesome

blessing,

because I couldn't choose

a better person who is...

who could be so supportive

and who's always there for me

and always believes in me,

even when I don't believe

in myself.

And I get to wear

all of her designer clothes.

[laughter]

- So, Sharon, what's it like

watching Alaska up here?

- It's...it's embarrassing.

Um, no, I'm...I'm...it...

[laughter]

I'm...I'm kidding.

When you look

at Alaska Thunderfuck...

when I look at you right now,

you have the tangible,

marketable beauty

of Roxxxy Andrews

and the campy theatrics

of Jinkx Monsoon,

and in my heart,

you are America's

next drag superstar,

and you and me

will be the most famous people

in reality television

from Pittsburgh, next to

Abby Lee Miller, of course.

[laughter]

[cheers and applause]

- Pam, did you know that Alaska

would grow up to be

a world-famous drag queen?

- Never in a million years

would I have ever dreamt

that he would've grown up

to be a famous drag queen.

I-I have four children,

I'm proud of all of them,

and I wanted them all

to be happy.

I have an Air Force man,

an Army man,

a medical daughter,

and now...

- And this.

- I'm well...no!

I'm so...I'm so well-rounded

with you.

I love you.

I'm so, so proud.

- Now, Alaska, what would it

mean to you

to be America's

next drag superstar?

- [stammering]

[laughter]

I mean, it would change my life.

And just being here and doing

this experience has already

changed my life, and that would

just be so amazing.

And with the money, I would buy



and share it with all of you.

- Oh, yummy.

- Aww.

- I love pizza.

- Me too.

- Alaska, it's been a real joy

to watch you blossom,

and you walk

in no one's shadow.

You are a force to be reckoned

with, because Alaska

is a thunder-f*cking star,

y'all!

[cheers and applause]

- Coming up, Jinkx and Roxxxy

spill the T when

RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited

continues.

- [laughs]

Welcome back

to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

In a moment,

we'll be crowning

America's next drag superstar,

but first,

I've drilled Alaska.

Now, it's time for me to probe

Jinkx Monsoon.

Take a look.

- My name is Jinkx Monsoon.

I am Seattle's premier Jewish

narcoleptic drag queen.

- What's on your head?

- Just a little headpiece.

- It's rather pedestrian.

Jinkx, oh, Jinkx.

[sighs]

I love it!

- [laughs]

I left my youngest brother

with a woman

who wasn't ready to be a mom.

To say that

"You're just a comedy queen"

is belittling something

I have made my whole career on.

- Jinkx, I have...

- I am talking.

- Oh.

- I am in it to win it.

To dismiss me

would be a bad move.

You should be taking me

as a thr*at.

[snores]

[laughter]

[cheers and applause]

- Wow.

[laughs]

So, Jinkxy, how are you feeling

at this very moment?

You're not sleepy at all,

are ya?

- I-I-I could use a nap, but...

[laughter]

I feel like a more fully

realized drag queen.

I feel like a more fully

realized human being.

I remember hearing you say

you've been through many phases

in your drag,

and I think I've entered

Jinkx 2.0,

the butterfly phase.

[laughter]

[cheers and applause]

- So tell me, what has been

your proudest moment

on the show?

- Honestly, working with Dave,

my veteran.

[cheers and applause]

Right there.

- You've been very open about

some childhood issues

you had with your mother

and your brother.

How are things now?

- You know, things are

wonderful.

Drag Race kind of brought

our family back together again,

and it caused us to have

some really

adult conversations.

- Are they here?

Are they here tonight?

- He's right over there.

- Oh.

- They're both there.

- So, Deanne, what was it like

having your Jinkxy discuss

family issues on television?

- Well, it hurt, mainly because

I saw how much

I hurt my child,

but at the same time,

it was good,

because it...it made...

it helped us to become

even closer.

- All right, yeah,

let the healing begin.

[applause]

Jacob, what's it like having

a drag queen for a brother?

- [chuckles]

Well, I never

really thought of him

as a drag queen.

I've just always thought of him

as my big brother,

and I know he's worked

so hard,

and I'm so proud of him

for being here.

And don't forget,

it's Monsoon season.

- [laughs]

[cheers and applause]

So, Jinkx, what would it mean

to you

to become America's next

drag superstar?

- I would love to be given

the chance

to use this as a platform

to be an advocate

for social change.

I'm lucky enough to live in

Washington

where gay marriage

is legal, and...

[cheers and applause]

I don't want to rest until

that's the truth

for all of America.

[laughs]

- Well, Jinkx, you have

continued to surprise

and delight your fans.

Best of all, I think you've even

surprised yourself.

I'm so proud to have you

sitting here tonight.

Now, our next queen is a blast

from drag's proud pageant

past

and an important part

of its future.

Roxxxy Andrews.

Let's take a look.

- My name is Roxxxy Andrews.

- Condragulations.

- Oh!

- You are the winner

of this challenge.

- ♪ Put on

a shiny sequence gown ♪

[record scratch]

- Are you saying "sequin" or...

- Sequence dress.

- "Sequin dress" I think

is what you mean.

- Sequence.

- What do you call it

when you flat-line?

- You're dead.

- I come off as a strong

character,

but I'm so weak

at the same time!

[sobs]

- Bam!

- Oh.

- Condragulations,

you are the winner

of this week's challenge.

- You look stunning.

- Thank you so much.

I think it's time to crown

a thick and juicy kind of girl.

- You're an amazing queen.

[laughs]

[cheers and applause]

Roxxxy, Roxxxy, Roxxxy,

how are you feeling

at this very moment?

- Oh, my God,

words cannot express

how happy I am to be here

and to experience this,

and y'all showing me

so much love.

I love it.

- Well, I know that getting

ready for the finale, you were

very emotional.

Tell me about that.

- Um, some of the things

on the show that...

how I was acting,

and I was acting that way,

it got the best of me at points,

and, you know,

I said a lot of hurtful things

to Jinkx,

and the most important thing

to me is our relationship,

and she is an amazing person

and she's extremely talented

and just as good as a competitor

as I am, if not better.

[applause]

- More than ever before,

a lot of people

have att*cked you online about

how you were on the show.

How has that affected you?

- It's affected me a lot.

You know, you want to say

you don't listen to it

and you don't pay attention

to it, but when you're, like,

going on social media networks,

you do run into those things,

and it hurts my feelings,

and you know, I just

have to pick myself back up.

Like...you know what I'm saying?

Like, you can't let it

get you down, just, you know,

that there's people out there

who do love you

and do understand where

you are coming from

and have been

in that same place.

We're all human.

We all make mistakes.

That was completely messy,

and I can't believe

I went there,

but I shouldn't have done that.

- Is there anything you'd like

to say to Jinkx right now?

- I love you to death,

and regardless of the things...

I wrote her, and I've written

you and I've told you that,

you know, I love you.

- And called me personally.

- And regardless if I win, lose,

or draw this contest,

she's somebody that I want

in my life

for the rest of my life,

and I have learned so much

from her and Alaska.

- Now, Jinkx, is there anything

you'd like to say to Roxxxy?

- I think people forget

sometimes that even though

sisters love each other,

sisters can also get

into some pretty bad fights,

you know?

But through all of it,

we're sisters.

- I think you two hookers

should hug it out.

[laughter]

[cheers and applause]

- [laughs]

- Okay.

[laughs]

- And if I may, I think

you're both awful.

[laughter]

[cheers and applause]

- Sadly, your legendary

drag mother Erica Andrews

recently passed away.

Did she get to see the show?

- She was at the hospital,

and she was texting me,

and she was telling me,

um, how proud she was of me

and, you know, she got to see

at least two episodes,

and then she ended up passing.

She was a wonderful person,

and if you ever got to meet her,

you knew exactly...

How beautiful she was, and...

[sniffs]

The hardest thing was during

rehearsal yesterday.

I had a little breakdown.

Those were the times

I would call her

and she would know exactly

what to tell me,

and I didn't have her to call

yesterday,

but my heart always tells me

what she would say,

and I knew inside,

she was just,

"Pick yourself up,

show them how beautiful

"you can be inside and out,

and...

walk with your head

held high."

- That's right. I love it.

I got to tell you,

you are my child now.

We, as gay people,

like I said before,

we get to choose the families.

We create families on our own

on this journey,

and all of my girls...you...

all of the girls

on this stage and the girls

in the audience,

we are one big, happy family,

and we will all be

there for one another.

Promises? Okay.

[cheers and applause]

- We are seconds away

from finding out

which one of these

fabulous queens

will be crowned

America's next drag superstar.

- Can't get enough of my girls?

Then have I got

a mobile game for you:

Rupaul's Drag Race Dragopolis.

Oh, my goodness!

Work it out, boss lady.

Work it.

Serving glamour!

Available now on iTunes.

[laughs]

[cheers and applause]

Welcome back to RuPaul's

Drag Race Reunited.

Alaska, Jinkx, Roxxxy,

one of you

is just moments away

from being crowned

America's next drag superstar.

Now, if, for any reason,
