And then there were… two?! That’s right, squirrelfriends. For the first time in Drag Race herstory, we’re down to just a pair of queens ahead of the All Stars 8 finale, as opposed to the usual three or four. And we know you have opinions about which two contestants remain.
But first, some context: Friday’s episode challenged Jessica Wild, Jimbo and Kandy Muse to make over a trio of lesbians, for which Kandy was named the top All Star of the week. Though Kandy lost her lip sync to this week’s assassin, Canada’s Drag Race Season 1 winner Priyanka,...

As 14 new contestants rev up their engines for Monday's season 6 premiere of RuPaul's Drag Race – and each with charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent – a few stood out from the pack at the premiere party in New York City.
Here are the ones to watch.
Milk
Milk does a body good – in 6-inch heels, she stands nearly 7' tall, perfect for her high-fashion sensibility. Her bold look at the premiere party – big hair, even bigger dress – was inspired by Alexander McQueen, but this queen says she is always altering her look.
Bianca Del Rio

Rev up your engines, it's that time of year again! The third season of Logo's (AfterElton.com's parent company) breakout smash RuPaul's Drag Race premieres in January, and we've got a first look at the new queens vying for the ultimate crown.
The contenders this year include some veteran drag queens, some heavy accents, and one queen who's in a relationship with a Season Two favorite!
Let's take a closer look at all the racers. Who do you think will leave the others in the dust, and who do you think will lag behind?
Alexis Mateo
Puerto Riiiiico! Alexis loves whipping her ponytail and talking about herself in the third person. With her lovable accent, she could be this season's fan fave, ala Jessica Wild.
Carmen Carrera
Carmen loves being sexy and feminine and vows to show more skin than any other queen on the show. And she superglues everything,...

We here at EW have made no secret of our love for Drag Race season 2 contestant Pandora Boxx (at left). Just take a look back at my TV recap of the episode this past March when she was voted off the show, when I called her offing the most “controversial elimination of the season.” Or, in the print magazine, when we wrote on Bullseye: “Pandora Boxx, in our hearts you are America’s Next Drag Superstar… even if RuPaul doesn’t think so.” We love! And, of course, we’ve loved seeing her return to Logo and the RuPaul world...

To open the series premiere of RuPaul’s Drag U, RuPaul described the little drag university she’d lovingly created. “Deep in the Titty-Caca Valley,” said the diva, “a school was formed to help biological women unleash their inner diva, and let the world have it!” The ladies, she continued, were “ready to change their lives through the miracle of drag.” Yes, girls and other girls, RuPaul has taken her glamorous lady-eye and turned it toward frumpy gals who need a little help from the other side. The other side, of course, being their lady-boy friends and former RuPaul’s Drag Race contestants,...

Face it: Summer television is A) not gay enough (True Blood can’t do it all!), and B) sadly devoid of the presence of RuPaul. But thank your lucky stars, because tonight TV gets gayer and draggier — and RuPaul reemerges! That’s right: It’s the much-anticipated premiere of RuPaul’s Drag U, the Drag Race spin-off that features some of the original show’s fave queens making over straight ladies — RuPaul calls them “biological women” — who are in dire need of some Tlc and a new look. Tonight, specifically, centers on “lady-boys” Jujubee, Ongina, and Raven — loves these three so much!

I say this every year, but I have high hopes for this season of Project Runway.
Maybe.
Last year I had high hopes, but aside from Ping's meltdowns, Anthony's exuberance, and Jesse's hotness, the season was pretty much a bust (although I am glad that Seth Aaron beat the arrogant Emilio for the championship).
This season could turn out to be interesting, though. When the show returns on Thursday, July 29th at 9Pm Est on Lifetime, it will now be 90 minutes long, which may increase the drama, and give us more insight into the creative process. Along with Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn, judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia will be returning, and hopefully they'll include some eclectic guest judges. My favorite last season? Milla Jovovich.
Best of all, of the nine male designers competing this season, seven are part of "Team Gay," which is the most for any season of Project Runway.

RuPaul's Drag Race Season Two contestants Pandora Boxx, Jessica Wild, and Tatianna made an appearance in Dallas and proved to be just as bitchy and entertaining as always. As expected, NBC has canceled Trauma and Mercy, which means we have to say goodbye to the terrific gay character Tyler Briggs,...

Last night, you watched RuPaul crown the controversial 21-year-old Orlando native Tyra Sanchez (né James Ross) as America's Next Drag Superstar on the season finale of RuPaul's Drag Race. Now, we here at PopWatch are happy to present a quick chat with the queen who ruffled everyone's feathers this season. Below, she talks about whether she's heard from idol Beyoncé yet, how much she paid for that new grill of hers (not as much as you might expect!), and who's she's hoping to work with in the future. Entertainment Weekly: Congrats on the big win last night! How’d you...

As I live-blogged the finale of RuPaul's Drag Race last night on LogoTV.com, via my Twitter account, there was quite the debate raging: Who should effing win this big ol' mess of a drag competition? (And I say "mess" with all the love in my heart.) Tyra, the fierce, Beyoncé-loving queen who had oft been called a "lazy bitch" by her competitors? Raven, the dark, trash-talking lady with pierced lips? Or Jujubee, the sweet gaysian glamazon with a heart of gold? There was no clear answer, as arguments from Team Tyra, Team Raven, and Team Jujubee abounded. And...

As a run-up to next week's two-and-a-half-hour finale extravaganza -- that's one hour of the actual show, one hour of reunion, and a half-hour of spin-off Untucked -- last night's episode of RuPaul's Drag Race wasn't just a regular installment of main stage action, of course. Rather, it was "The Main Event Clip Show," a sprite look back at the highs and lows of the season. In that vein, rather than just a straight-up recap here on PopWatch, let's take a look at the highs of last night's episode. Because, honestly, can you truly recap what was essentially a recap show itself?...

Last night's episode of RuPaul's Drag Race wasn't totally devoid of the dearly, dearly departed Pandora Boxx, who unfortunately bit the dust two weeks ago. The hour opened with the ladies seeing the lipsticked message my favorite queen left for them on the workroom's mirror: "Lick this boxx, bitch." Even post-elimination, Pandora is still bringing the funny to Drag Race! Thank goodness! The episode featured the "fantastic final four" -- Tatianna, Jujubee, Raven, and Tyra Sanchez -- fighting it out for RuPaul's trio of fake Diva Awards. They each had to create a look for three different awards shows: the Teen Diva Awards,...

When just five contestants remain in any reality competition that you care about remotely, every single elimination stings. Well, mostly -- and yes, I'm gazing in your direction, Tatianna. But last night's elimination on RuPaul's Drag Race stung more than just a usual top-five send-off. You see, my favorite constant on the show -- that'd be Ms. Pandora Boxx -- was forced to "sashay away," after the judges and RuPaul agreed that her "drag mother" had out-shined the sweet, hilarious Pandora. And at the same time, a lesser contestant -- yes, we're back to you, Ms. Tatianna -- was allowed to remain on the show.
