WEBVTT - DRAG RACE DEBRIEF: Minnie Cooper 💃 0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:01.840 But I think they did me a favorite sending your 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:04.480 home as well, because mentally I wasn't coping really no, 0:00:04.559 --> 0:00:04.960 not at all. 0:00:05.040 --> 0:00:07.480 Yeah, because he said that you felt isolated by the 0:00:07.600 --> 0:00:08.680 group in what way? 0:00:08.760 --> 0:00:12.600 What were they doing? Is it just me podcast by 0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:13.720 a couple of minches? 0:00:13.920 --> 0:00:17.640 Don't suck it up? Hey, everybody, welcome back to Drag Race. 0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:20.279 Do we're into week four now? 0:00:20.680 --> 0:00:24.639 I just got to say this episode, Anna Conda finally 0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:27.080 got the fucking recognition that long last. 0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:29.640 I was worried too, because sometimes when they set it 0:00:29.720 --> 0:00:31.320 up at the start like I need a win, they 0:00:31.360 --> 0:00:34.000 don't get the win. But she did and well deserved. 0:00:34.000 --> 0:00:36.440 Although close second was Uri. I think Ury guy could 0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:37.240 have won snatch game. 0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:39.760 Oh my god. Yeah, he's absolutely stolen my heart. What 0:00:39.800 --> 0:00:40.400 a sweetheart. 0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:44.000 I love his dry wit and just like so unexpected. 0:00:44.040 --> 0:00:45.239 I did not expect any of this. 0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:46.600 Yeah, good guy totally. 0:00:46.640 --> 0:00:50.040 I also didn't expect this week's elimonee to be the 0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:50.840 person that went home. 0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:53.920 In all honesty, I mean no, I do think it 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:57.360 was her time though I think she ran her course 0:00:57.520 --> 0:00:59.640 that ran out of petrol so to speak. 0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:00.440 For good Ba. 0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:04.160 Yeah, spoiler alert, it's a mini keeper and The reason 0:01:04.200 --> 0:01:06.080 I thought that'd keep around is that, you know, for 0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:08.319 the drama, because there were some weeks where she didn't 0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:10.640 even win or lose challenges, and she was still the 0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:12.119 queen that was most talked about. 0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:14.800 I think the thing is, though, like she had pissed 0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:16.080 everyone off, So I. 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:17.360 Think not everyone. 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:20.360 I think the edit would have you think that, But 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:21.840 I know what you mean. I know what you mean 0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:24.640 because she's not afraid of confrontation. And every week it 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:27.319 was a different person. There was Aubrey Haveve, and then 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:29.800 there was Pamara fifth and then this week it was 0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:32.280 a little bit of tension with Beverly Kills, but not 0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:33.160 too much, to be honest. 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:35.200 Well, the common denominator in that was Mini not saying 0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:37.479 it's her fault, but she was definitely in a lot 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:40.520 of the drama. I quickly to talk about the episode 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:44.560 Snatch Game is I think everyone's favorite episode better than 0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:46.800 the first season, because the first seasons was trash of 0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:48.480 the down under of series so bad. 0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:51.800 Yeah, So this is what I've gathered is that everyone 0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:53.920 was like, oh, good, it's Snatch Game week. 0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:54.560 This will be good. 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.640 And then the reaction from everyone I've spoken to it 0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:00.560 has been, oh that didn't hit the click, did it? 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.280 Well? This time around was good. I actually was disappointed 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.120 in Spanky. I wanted more from Barry Barry Humphries. I 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:09.400 would have loved better Dame Edna. There wasn't that much. 0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.760 But I thought that RuPaul didn't like other people impersonating 0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:13.519 other drag. 0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:14.320 Queens what I thought. 0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:15.840 But you know what, did you notice they didn't call 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:18.239 her Dame Edna? It was Barry Humphries. So maybe I did. 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:20.600 And I was like, that's clearly not badther, just like 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:21.520 his normal self. 0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:23.960 Well I who else didn't they like Nini leaks were 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:29.480 shocking from Queen Kong the Housewives. 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.680 Oh right now, yeah, that reference went right over my head. 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:32.600 Didn't much. 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.040 But also, like, guys, if you're gonna do a queen 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:37.120 or do an impression of someone from another series or 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:39.520 another show, we have to have seen it. You know. 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:41.920 That's why the lies is a good because even me, 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:44.640 who's not a Eliza fan, knows what Eliza impression is. 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:45.440 Yeah, exactly. 0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:49.679 And I just think that, oh, poor Minnie, she did 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.000 Ellen Degenerators and it just kind of fell on deaf year. 0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:55.040 It's like no one was really giving her the laughs 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:57.400 or anything. It was this crickets And I would just 0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:00.880 absolutely die if Michelle Visage that said to me, yeah, no, 0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:02.560 that wasn't funny. 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:04.560 It wasn't funny. Oh it didn't make me laugh. 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:06.560 I'd be like, oh my god, I can never recover 0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:08.280 from Michelle Vatage saying that to me. 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:10.080 It would be so bad. I mean, I know, because 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:12.760 you haven't seen all the US franchises, but they are 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:14.960 the ones that always do well in drag Race. Are 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:16.919 the queens that add like an extra hat on top 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:18.839 of it, like they'll do Ellen, but they'll do Ellen. 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.320 At a funeral, Ellen reveals that she's not actually gay, 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.520 like they always give them a fake storyline, right, Okay, 0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:26.400 so how funny would it have been if it was Ellen? 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:28.119 But you know she actually has been living a lie 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:29.799 that she hasn't been gay her whole life and she's 0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:32.680 actually straight hli right, you know, they add an extra 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:35.760 bit to it, which I think is why Hannah kind 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:37.600 of did so well, because it was Liza with just 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:40.480 a speech impediment, you know, in a weird way, or 0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:40.760 while I. 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:42.440 Sound a bit weird laughing at that, I was like, 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:45.400 isn't Liza like Batlin a bit? Yeah? 0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:48.400 Now, she is, but Liza has always been zany and 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:49.560 nuts and they're scatting and. 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:50.880 At the puzzle. 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.080 So I thought it was really good, and I think 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.080 you're right. Hannah deserved the wind and her runaway was 0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:57.640 my favorite. I loved it on the clown circis so gay? 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:01.200 Did you see the editing fail that went viral? 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:03.680 So when Hannah was on the main stage getting feedback 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.320 from the judges, they cut away to a reaction from 0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:08.040 one of the other queens in the background, and you 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.000 can just see Hannah's standing behind them. So she's gone 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:12.880 from on the main stage to standing up the back 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:13.880 in a matter of seconds. 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:14.680 Didn't see. 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.400 Yeah, people really like to pick on Drag Race down 0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:20.200 Under for just little fails like that. 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:21.919 I just I don't know what was going on with 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:24.400 the mic quality this week, but there was one confessional 0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:26.640 form Mini that sounded like it was recorded on Apple 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:28.320 Voice notes so bad. 0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:30.560 It could have been where they're like, oh fuck, the 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:32.520 MIC's gone flat, get me iPhone. 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:36.240 Truly, it was bizarre. Yeah, it wouldn't anyway. Listen, we 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:39.000 should cut to the chase because we have her here, 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.760 the eliminated queen Mini Cooper. She's coming to visit us 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.120 in studio and she isn't if you like, for those 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:45.920 who are outside of Sydney, you might not know. Mini 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.479 Cooper is a drag institution. 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:50.279 In a st to me because I'm a Sydney gay, 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:52.760 She's the Mini Cooper, you know what I mean. She's 0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:55.200 absolute drag royalty in Sydney, top. 0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:57.359 Three drag queens. She's been doing it for twenty years. 0:04:57.400 --> 0:04:58.880 If you've been if you had a drunk night on 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:01.000 Stonewall or on Oxford Stree, you will have seen Mini 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:02.920 Cooper either on the stage or in the gutter. 0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:06.039 She's also the second oldest drag queen to ever compete 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:08.000 in drag Race. Ever, I didn't know that they're not 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:10.440 the oldest. They really focused on that, the ages and things. 0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:12.640 And she was also what Australia's got talent. I think 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:13.360 she did quite well. 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:15.360 Yeah back in the day, so this is not her 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:16.680 first taste of reality TV. 0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:19.600 She's here with this now. Mini Cooper, the wonderful but glamorous, 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:21.360 the very tall Mini Cooper is here. 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.160 How Mini, And you know what they say about tall girls, 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:26.720 big personality. 0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:29.520 In that bang on, I didn't realize how tall you 0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:31.360 were and I was like oh she had to duck 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:31.960 through the door. 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:35.240 Yeah, I'm six with five in heels and without Hey, 0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:38.680 no swearing. Thank you. 0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:39.840 If you want to drop an F. 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.400 Bomb, please I drop more than F bombs keeping coming. 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:45.920 As we learned. Can I just say, like, for all 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:48.839 the intents and purposes and all everything that's floating around online, 0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:50.760 what you brought to drag Race was exactly what I 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:51.720 want out of drag Race. 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:52.560 And what's that? 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.360 No good television? You know what I mean? Like really 0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:01.440 good TV? Yeah? It was entertaining. Are you pray of 0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:02.440 what you had on drag Race? 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.560 I'm proud of some things, not proud of others. Yeah, 0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:07.559 but you know, I think it sees me as a 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:11.039 fully round human person, none of us. I'm flawed, just 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:13.320 like everyone, and just more of my flaws were shown 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:15.520 the most Who do you reckon? 0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:17.280 The heat's going to be on now that you're gone, 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:19.240 because surely they're going to have to hyper fixate on 0:06:19.279 --> 0:06:19.760 someone else. 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:22.640 Well, because that's what's what I find really interesting about 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.240 that environment, because I think I was the person because 0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:28.200 it was very much the young kids and me, and 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:30.640 I didn't even realize until the show air that I 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:32.560 had cong and spanking on my side until I saw 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:35.479 the confessionals, because you don't get to talk because once 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:37.560 you're in that workroom, you're working, and then you're on 0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:39.440 the bus and you're not allowed to talk, and it's 0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:42.560 a very small amount of talking. So I had no 0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:44.920 idea I had even had that kind of support. So 0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:48.520 my reaction is to this group of people. I don't 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:50.280 know if anybody else would react the same or if 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:51.840 it was just me, but it was almost like a 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:55.520 retaliation of what I was getting. And to watch it's 0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:57.680 very hard for me to watch because I'm like, oh god, 0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:59.320 I can see why they didn't like me, because I 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:00.800 don't like me. Yeah. 0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:02.760 Yeah, I feel like I'm a little bit like you 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:05.240 in a way that if there's any sort of conflict, 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:07.400 I just like to nip it in the butt, nutted out, 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:10.400 just so that there's no risk of anyone festering and like, 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:11.600 you know, getting bottled up. 0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:13.520 And it's interesting that you say that there was in 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:16.080 the very first episode where I was talking about Aureay's costume. 0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:18.440 We're walking to the runway and you don't see any 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:20.720 of this. They were actually talking behind my back, and 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:22.400 I go, if you've got a problem, talk to me 0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:24.240 about it, and I'm having to discuss it. Then you 0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:26.160 see me come into the workroom and I've got this 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.280 real confrontational conversation. 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:30.600 See, we don't have the context. 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:32.480 You don't have the context, So I like this crazy 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:32.960 old white man. 0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:34.040 It's always ready to go. 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:39.240 Yeah. No, it's tricky because I do sometimes think Mitchell 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:41.040 picky battles, picky battles. 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:42.760 Was there anything that you were like, Oh, maybe I 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:44.360 shouldn't have said that, anything like that. 0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:46.840 Yeah, definitely. The thing in the last episode with Beverly. 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:50.000 I think also too, I was at that point. I 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:52.480 really was at the end of my I wasn't in 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.520 a great mental space at that point because I really 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:56.760 wasn't talking to anyone. I was really on my own. 0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:00.800 And what happened prior to that is that they were saying, well, Minni, 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:02.880 you're witching behind people, and they were all at me. 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:04.880 So I was like, Okay, if I'm not allowed a 0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:07.240 bitch about behind someone's back, why are you allowed to 0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:09.560 do it? And that was where that comes from. But 0:08:09.560 --> 0:08:11.200 I don't know if that reads on television. It just 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:13.360 looks like I'm throwing Beverly under the bus, which I did. 0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:16.000 I actually didn't think that there was too much tension 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:16.760 between you and Beverly. 0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:18.040 She seems quite fond of you. 0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:20.720 Oh, I actually love Beverly. You know what's interesting that 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:22.600 you didn't see on the show either, is that I 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.120 actually confronted them all. I go, Okay, if someone's got 0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:27.000 a problem, can just the one person speak to me? 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:30.480 Because whenever someone had a problem, it wasn't just I've 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:34.160 got a problem, Mini, let's talk. It was everyone having 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:37.640 someone with them. Is that because I'm an older person 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:39.360 and people can't stick up for themselves? So am I 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:41.640 really that scary? I think I'm pretty scary. 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.680 Do you think some people do find it scary? Mitchell? 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:47.720 Do you find it when I'm a little bit assertive? 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:50.320 He gets he does find that scary. Think people don't 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:51.400 know how to cope sometimes. 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:54.400 And I suppose that's the thing that I've had to 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.800 being a Yeah, I don't know. I really don't know 0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:58.160 what I am. To be honest, I think I've lost 0:08:58.160 --> 0:08:58.839 my train of thought. 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:00.920 You were yourself and yeah, like I saidt the end 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:03.839 of the day, it was entertaining. Yeah, I'm watching a 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:05.880 drag show. You know, it's not a time at Village 0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:06.920 like you don't have to be civil. 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:09.600 And that's the thing with Beverly because I actually asked 0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:12.440 the group, I go who, and Beverly goes, oh, I'm 0:09:12.440 --> 0:09:15.959 not one of the people that was joining the group, 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.079 and it was like in aha moment for me, I 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:21.080 was like oh, and and other people owned up, which 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:23.240 I won't say who they were because we've made up since, 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:28.160 and it was really like, oh you. And then Beverly 0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:30.600 and I had this really nice moment which didn't err 0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:32.880 on TV, and I apologized to her. I said, I 0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:36.040 misunderstood you, and we came to a place of understanding. 0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:38.520 Both of us were going through something me being the 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:40.920 oldest and her being the youngest. We were both going 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:42.040 through a similar sort of thing. 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:43.760 Yeah, but you can see her turm oil of not 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:46.280 performing to the level that she expected to on the 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:47.000 show and. 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:49.360 Exactly around trying. 0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:51.880 So yeah, and I would have liked to have seen 0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:55.640 that shared, you know, trauma really be unpacked. 0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:57.680 Yeah, and that is a moment that you didn't see. 0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:00.000 And Beverly and I actually discussed that after the episode. 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:01.720 I was how did she get feels? She goes, I 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.200 was disappointed at what they didn't show that moment between 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:06.680 you and I actually showing each other respect. 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:07.080 Yeah. 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.200 And I've been actually sticking out for Beverly online because 0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:11.720 she's been told a little bit about giving her opinions. 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:13.920 I was like, she was asked to her opinions, and 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:16.840 she gave them. Leave the poor kid alone. She just 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.200 gave her opinions. I step away out together. She thought 0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:22.400 it was terrible. Yeah, good honor Beverly. I'm team Beverly. 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:25.400 Yeah. No, I think that a lot of people misread her. 0:10:25.480 --> 0:10:27.720 But she seems quite lovely deep down. But then, like 0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:29.800 any other queen on the show, just has the capacity 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:30.320 to be shady. 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:31.120 And that's the whole point. 0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:32.760 Well, and the thing is, do you know what I 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.120 like about Beverly? She speaks to mind and I do 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.960 as well, and that's probably what we actually liked each other. 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.760 Oh my god, Beverly, is you twenty thirty? 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:45.080 If Beverly's like at twenty one, I never said, boob, 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:46.960 what's like when she's fifty? 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:49.800 That's very true. 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:52.200 Actually, I'm all in all that drama side. Did you 0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:54.520 enjoy the experience? What I noticed with you, Minnie was 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:56.839 that you and Rue there was a mutual respect from 0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.760 Rue that that Rue showed to you that I don't 0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:01.319 think you showed to other queens. 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:03.240 And I agree. That was my favorite time on the show. 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:06.200 Like and there was another moment. There were three times 0:11:06.320 --> 0:11:08.640 I had chats with Rue and there was another walk through. 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:11.880 It was after I had my altercation with Aubrey and 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.760 we made up, and then Ruy goes, oh Minnie, hence 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.320 asking me. They always asking me me in the conflict, 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.959 always asking that question. I said, Aubrey and I have 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:21.800 made up. I said. When I started Drag, I was 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:24.400 told I was unwatchable. I don't know what Allboo's worried about. 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:27.160 And the Rue pisses himself. He says, meaning you should 0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:29.360 release an album called Unwatchable. I said, yeah, can't wait 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.880 not to buy it. So it's really funny. And we 0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:36.880 just seeing the humor in the trauma. I suppose yeah, 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:37.560 and we share that. 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.240 I think there was a moment on premiere night because 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:42.000 it was I was there too, and it was the 0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:43.760 Drag queen's first time seeing the episode. 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:44.280 Is that right? 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:44.680 Yes? 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:46.800 And then the Q and A on stage afterwards. 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:49.880 You were a bit emotional, which I do love you 0:11:49.920 --> 0:11:52.040 wear your heart on your sleeve, and there was something 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:54.800 you said along the lines of some of these queens 0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:56.640 did something I would never do to anyone. 0:11:57.120 --> 0:11:59.200 What was that in reference that I was keeping an 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:00.160 eye out the whole thing. 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:01.600 You know, And you know what they didn't show it 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.880 in the edit actually is yeah, and what was it? 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:07.240 It was when I wore the HIV dress. I went 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:09.520 to talk about it in the untucked and oh, you 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:11.160 spoke about that on the runway, and I actually it 0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:12.720 was more for me to say, and I wanted to 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:14.920 share it with the group about these people of our 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:20.079 past and our history, and I thought that was disgusting. Yeah, perfect, 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:22.960 that's what upset me. It wasn't me and anything that 0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:25.440 that they didn't let me speak about these people. The 0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:27.559 reason why they were allowed to be on drag Race 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.439 is because of those people that passed, and I wasn't 0:12:30.440 --> 0:12:33.360 being able to share that, and that to me was heartbreak. 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:35.960 And so were they just making jokes all, No, they. 0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:38.120 Were making jokes. It was because I think it was 0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:40.480 that thing of because I was like by ru and 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.320 I do talk a lot, but let's face we all 0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:45.960 talk a lot on that shod and it was just 0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:49.640 I don't think they did it intentionally to be malicious, 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:52.240 but it was really hurtful. Yeah, and I think it 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:53.760 wasn't the time to dismiss me. 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:55.600 No, there's a time and a place for that, and 0:12:55.640 --> 0:12:56.480 there wasn't that. 0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:59.920 That runway was gorgeous and shame I'd lost so much waste. 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:02.840 Yeah, your tits, well, I like yours. 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:07.360 That the nip slip totally.
