Whispering HuntysWhy C.U.N.T. Energy is Critical (W/ Mijon Zulu, Jaron Barney, & Miss Vanity Love)Drag this week taught that you need a lot C.U.N.T. Energy and that pussy had better be on fire if you want to beat Jasmine Kennedy in a lip-sync. Also, could queens just consider lowering our expectations and then wow us that talent? Controversial option, but wouldn’t it be nice to not see queens eat their words. On All Stars, we are here for Janey Jacké Ru-demption and Jimbo’s Mugler. That and literally anything these queens do on All Stars because they are what? SEASONED!!!!

Thank Ru, GJKoijman, Marco Dreijer and Adam Unze for forcing the Huntys to get into the Eurovision situation. Joey served the deets about his Eurovision parties in NYC and Chill Bar - a safe queer space that is creating some inclusive programming in the VERY cis-male gay area in Palm Springs. Kudos!

Whispering HuntysShe Had a Moment: a Queen of the Universe Detour (W/ Mijon Zulu & Yannik Encarnação)Well, Drag Race is about to give birth until season 14. Till then, we decided to have a kiki with the Queen of the Universe. How could we not? $250,000 for a 6 episode season, while the Drag Race UK has no prize and Drag Race Itaila €30,000? Luckily, it might even be more enjoyable than one of the bajillion franchises that have come through this year. Grag Queen, AdaVox, Aria B Cassadine, Sushant Divgikar, and Gingzilla have changed us forever. And the Finale! Zomg, no one could have predicted the “moment”mishap.

Well, we are gagged, gooped, shooketh by yet another finale that surprised us. Thank the Lord, our beloved Italian-Dutch Nutella Versace joins us to break it down. While Amsterdam is back in lockdown, Nutella was lucky enough to host the annual Aidsfonds World AIDS Day fundraiser. While we are utterly convinced by the talent of the stunning glamazon Elektra Bionic, we’re still wondering how the report card measures up in comparison. Beyond that, we are also a bit confused by Drag Italia’s formatting, fashions, Miss Congeniality crowning, and the traumatic stories of the contests with the...2021-12-2950 min

Whispering HuntysAnd Then There Were Three (W/ Mijon Zulu & Nick Probst)Could there be any more drag competitions happening at the same time? Drag Race France is coming soon and the UK, Canada, and Italy are airing at the same time!!!!!!!!!! It is the best of times for Nick and the worst of times for Mijon. But, for you, Huntys, we pushed through and watched all three. Day after Trans Remembrance Day, we salute our queer family and would like to draw attention to those lost and the need to educate ourselves and be stronger allies to the trans community. Period.
