00:00:04,758 --> 00:00:07,826
<i>This season on
"The Tournament of All Stars,"</i>

2
00:00:07,827 --> 00:00:11,792
<i>18 queens competed
in 3 brackets.</i>

3
00:00:11,793 --> 00:00:13,861
<i>And tonight...</i>

4
00:00:13,862 --> 00:00:18,274
<i>the top All Stars face off
in the semifinals,</i>

5
00:00:18,275 --> 00:00:20,585
<i>as they continue their quest</i>

6
00:00:20,586 --> 00:00:24,240
<i>for a coveted spot in
the "Drag Race" Hall of Fame.</i>

7
00:00:26,241 --> 00:00:30,481
The All Star returning
to the competition is...

8
00:00:39,896 --> 00:00:42,102
Good evening.
I'm Rowdy Ru.

9
00:00:42,103 --> 00:00:45,792
And I'm Rowdy Ru Jr., but
you can call me Little RuRu.

10
00:00:45,793 --> 00:00:49,792
Tonight our top queens
of all three brackets

11
00:00:49,793 --> 00:00:53,033
are back
for the semifinals of...

12
00:00:53,034 --> 00:00:55,895
both:
"The Tournament of All Stars."

13
00:00:55,896 --> 00:00:58,861
Bring back our semifinalists.

14
00:01:05,551 --> 00:01:07,792
From Bracket 1...

15
00:01:07,793 --> 00:01:10,240
here comes the Dawn

16
00:01:10,241 --> 00:01:14,240
and A'keria C. Davenport.

17
00:01:14,241 --> 00:01:17,585
<i>Bitch,
we are so fucking back.</i>

18
00:01:17,586 --> 00:01:19,240
I think
she's been working out.

19
00:01:19,241 --> 00:01:20,930
<i>I kind of chewed up
Bracket 1,</i>

20
00:01:20,931 --> 00:01:22,688
spit it out, pissed on it.

21
00:01:22,689 --> 00:01:25,136
<i>And I'm just here
to do more of the same.</i>

22
00:01:25,137 --> 00:01:28,136
<i>The semifinals,
they have commenced.</i>

23
00:01:28,137 --> 00:01:29,895
And, bitch,
I feel cunt about it.

24
00:01:30,965 --> 00:01:32,240
<i>I have no choice</i>

25
00:01:32,241 --> 00:01:34,343
<i>but to knock these girls out
one by one.</i>

26
00:01:34,344 --> 00:01:37,447
And I'm ready.
Bing, bing, bing.

27
00:01:37,448 --> 00:01:39,964
Oh, well, put that
in your pipe and smoke it.

28
00:01:39,965 --> 00:01:40,964
Mm-hmm.

29
00:01:40,965 --> 00:01:42,550
Yeah, she's here.

30
00:01:46,413 --> 00:01:50,723
Up next, from Bracket 2,
it's Crystal Methyd...

31
00:01:50,724 --> 00:01:54,274
and the reverend doctor,
Silky Nutmeg Ganache.

32
00:01:56,793 --> 00:01:59,723
It's Punkie Brewster
all growed up.

33
00:01:59,724 --> 00:02:01,895
<i>The circus is back in town,</i>

34
00:02:01,896 --> 00:02:04,757
<i>and I'm gonna ringlead
these girls to the finals</i>

35
00:02:04,758 --> 00:02:08,309
and that $200,000, period.

36
00:02:08,310 --> 00:02:12,447
Why, this is the silkiest
Ganache I've ever had.

37
00:02:12,448 --> 00:02:16,550
<i>I'm not snatching no crown.
I'm here to earn the crown.</i>

38
00:02:16,551 --> 00:02:18,240
See, there's a difference.

39
00:02:18,241 --> 00:02:21,205
Some girls have to snatch it
but not Silky Nutmeg Ganache.

40
00:02:25,206 --> 00:02:28,930
And from Bracket 3,
it's Kennedy Davenport,

41
00:02:28,931 --> 00:02:33,067
Jasmine Kennedie, and Sam Star.

42
00:02:33,068 --> 00:02:35,067
<i>♪ Don't play no games ♪</i>

43
00:02:35,068 --> 00:02:36,895
She really needs to start
dressing up

44
00:02:36,896 --> 00:02:38,550
for these functions.
- Well...

45
00:02:38,551 --> 00:02:40,102
<i>I am prepared,</i>

46
00:02:40,103 --> 00:02:43,412
<i>and I am definitely
in competition mode.</i>

47
00:02:43,413 --> 00:02:45,619
It's gonna be
a fight to the finish.

48
00:02:45,620 --> 00:02:47,412
<i>The best of the brackets
have returned,</i>

49
00:02:47,413 --> 00:02:48,895
<i>and, baby, the game is on.</i>

50
00:02:48,896 --> 00:02:51,343
You're in a bald hat.
I'm sorry.

51
00:02:51,344 --> 00:02:53,516
What are you talking about?

52
00:02:53,517 --> 00:02:54,861
I'm Little Ruru.

53
00:02:54,862 --> 00:02:56,723
<i>3 girls from Bracket 3--</i>

54
00:02:56,724 --> 00:02:58,826
<i>I think that means
we're pretty hot competition.</i>

55
00:02:58,827 --> 00:03:00,447
Sorry, girls who
didn't make it through.

56
00:03:01,689 --> 00:03:03,274
Don't make me get the belt.

57
00:03:03,275 --> 00:03:06,585
<i>Buckle up, bitches.
Let the games begin.</i>

58
00:03:07,758 --> 00:03:08,895
Yee-haw.

59
00:03:11,965 --> 00:03:15,895
And now, the moment
you've all been waiting for,

60
00:03:15,896 --> 00:03:19,516
the winner
of the wild-card lottery.

61
00:03:19,517 --> 00:03:24,274
The comeback queen rejoining
the competition is...

62
00:03:27,482 --> 00:03:30,343
Gay.

63
00:03:30,344 --> 00:03:33,378
It's Joey Jay.

64
00:03:40,862 --> 00:03:44,067
I'm back, back, back again.

65
00:03:44,068 --> 00:03:46,585
<i>No matter how many times
you go to church,</i>

66
00:03:46,586 --> 00:03:49,033
you will never be able
to pray this gay away.

67
00:03:49,034 --> 00:03:50,895
Hi, gay.
- Hi, gay.

68
00:03:50,896 --> 00:03:53,240
<i>I didn't qualify
with points,</i>

69
00:03:53,241 --> 00:03:56,102
<i>so I'm sure some
of the girls are like,</i>

70
00:03:56,103 --> 00:03:58,274
we're not worried about her.

71
00:03:58,275 --> 00:04:02,930
But the girls have to remember
RuPaul and Michelle chose this.

72
00:04:02,931 --> 00:04:05,688
So, obviously,
I'm here for a reason.

73
00:04:05,689 --> 00:04:07,999
Condragulations, All Stars.

74
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,171
You are one step closer
to the grand prize

75
00:04:11,172 --> 00:04:13,412
of $200,000.

76
00:04:13,413 --> 00:04:14,654
- Oh, my God.
- Okay.

77
00:04:14,655 --> 00:04:18,205
Starting today
and for the next two weeks,

78
00:04:18,206 --> 00:04:21,378
"Tournament of All Stars"
semifinal rules

79
00:04:21,379 --> 00:04:22,930
are in full effect.

80
00:04:22,931 --> 00:04:27,240
First, the points you earned
in the preliminary round

81
00:04:27,241 --> 00:04:29,102
have been wiped,

82
00:04:29,103 --> 00:04:33,412
so you're all starting
on a level playing field.

83
00:04:33,413 --> 00:04:35,343
For the next two episodes,

84
00:04:35,344 --> 00:04:38,930
I will name
one top All Star of the week,

85
00:04:38,931 --> 00:04:41,378
and she will receive
a cash tip

86
00:04:41,379 --> 00:04:44,309
of $10,000.

87
00:04:44,310 --> 00:04:48,688
Then the two bottom All Stars
will lip-sync for their lives.

88
00:04:48,689 --> 00:04:52,757
But the decision
of who lip-syncs

89
00:04:52,758 --> 00:04:54,861
will not be mine to make.

90
00:04:56,758 --> 00:04:58,550
It will be...

91
00:04:58,551 --> 00:05:01,067
yours.

92
00:05:01,068 --> 00:05:03,067
- All right.
- Okay.

93
00:05:03,068 --> 00:05:05,412
- Wanted a twist, huh?
- I love you all.

94
00:05:05,413 --> 00:05:07,240
Oh, God.

95
00:05:07,241 --> 00:05:09,378
After I name
the top All Star,

96
00:05:09,379 --> 00:05:11,930
the other queens
will rank each other

97
00:05:11,931 --> 00:05:14,412
in a new and improved

98
00:05:14,413 --> 00:05:18,136
<i>Rate-A-Queen, the MVQ edition.</i>

99
00:05:18,137 --> 00:05:20,964
- Gag.
- Oh, gosh.

100
00:05:20,965 --> 00:05:24,895
It's always something.
It's always something.

101
00:05:24,896 --> 00:05:26,240
Ugh.

102
00:05:26,241 --> 00:05:28,792
The two All Stars
that receive the lowest rating

103
00:05:28,793 --> 00:05:32,826
from their fellow queens
will lip-sync for their lives,

104
00:05:32,827 --> 00:05:37,102
and one will be eliminated.

105
00:05:37,103 --> 00:05:38,550
Hmm.

106
00:05:38,551 --> 00:05:39,654
Gag.

107
00:05:39,655 --> 00:05:42,447
Now, let's reignite
this competition.

108
00:05:42,448 --> 00:05:44,723
For this week's Maxi Challenge,

109
00:05:44,724 --> 00:05:48,412

story hour.

111
00:05:51,793 --> 00:05:53,309
Okay.

112
00:05:53,310 --> 00:05:55,826
Each of you needs
to command the stage

113
00:05:55,827 --> 00:05:58,930
as you tell
an entertainting story

114
00:05:58,931 --> 00:06:03,343
that offers a life lesson
to your younger self.

115
00:06:03,344 --> 00:06:04,964
Okay.

116
00:06:04,965 --> 00:06:06,688
Now, to help you prepare,

extra-special guest judge--

actor and comedian
Evan Mulrooney.

120
00:06:17,448 --> 00:06:19,205
- Ooh.
- Oh, my God.

121
00:06:19,206 --> 00:06:20,723
- Gorgeous day.
- Come on, Evan.

122
00:06:20,724 --> 00:06:23,964
All Stars,

123
00:06:23,965 --> 00:06:26,516
And may
the best drag queen win.

124

Sickening.

125
00:06:27,827 --> 00:06:29,826
It could still be me.

126
00:06:29,827 --> 00:06:31,343

Oh, my God.
Hey, diva.

148
00:07:29,137 --> 00:07:31,999
I think I'm most surprised to
see 4 girls from Bracket 3.

149
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,757
Can you believe
that 4 of us are here?

150
00:07:33,758 --> 00:07:35,171
That's crazy.
- No.

151
00:07:35,172 --> 00:07:37,654
And now that I know
that Rate-A-Queen is here,

152
00:07:37,655 --> 00:07:39,102
hopefully they like me.

153
00:07:39,103 --> 00:07:41,171
- How many points did you have?
- I got 8.

154
00:07:41,172 --> 00:07:42,895
Girl, probably
the most of the season.

155
00:07:42,896 --> 00:07:44,757
- Yeah. I think so.
- You was whupping the girls.

156
00:07:44,758 --> 00:07:46,274
Oh, I was whupping
their asses.

157
00:07:46,275 --> 00:07:47,895
Oh, you was dog-walking
the girls.

158
00:07:47,896 --> 00:07:49,585
I mean,

159

- Nope.

160

It's an even
fucking playing field.

161
00:07:52,793 --> 00:07:53,999
Okay.

162
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,688
I'm not sure if the level
of competition has risen

163
00:07:56,689 --> 00:07:58,619
<i>or just my blood pressure.</i>

164
00:07:58,620 --> 00:08:01,309
But I ain't scared.

165
00:08:01,310 --> 00:08:02,826
Just because me
and Christa got 6

166
00:08:02,827 --> 00:08:04,930
and some of you other hos
got 7 and 8,

167
00:08:04,931 --> 00:08:08,240

gonna come stomp you.

- I don't know, girl.

169

Where you want to go?
- I was over here.

170
00:08:13,896 --> 00:08:15,826
But Ms. Silky was
already right there,

171
00:08:15,827 --> 00:08:18,481
so I don't want to be all
the Black girls on one side.

172
00:08:18,482 --> 00:08:20,964
We can go over there.
Where do you want to go, girl?

173
00:08:20,965 --> 00:08:23,654
Well, y'all talking about
that, how's that gonna go?

174
00:08:23,655 --> 00:08:25,102
- What?
- You and Silk.

175
00:08:25,103 --> 00:08:27,343
- It has to go nowhere.
- It has to go nowhere.

176
00:08:27,344 --> 00:08:28,999
Unfortunately,
I don't know her.

177
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,067
Oh.

178
00:08:30,068 --> 00:08:32,481
Everybody knows
that me and Silky

179
00:08:32,482 --> 00:08:35,205
<i>had a friendship
that was very deeply rooted.</i>

180
00:08:35,206 --> 00:08:37,067
But there's been
no communication

181
00:08:37,068 --> 00:08:38,964
between the two of us
for over a year now.

182
00:08:38,965 --> 00:08:41,757
<i>And some things
have transpired off camera</i>

183
00:08:41,758 --> 00:08:44,067
<i>that has now put me
in a position</i>

184
00:08:44,068 --> 00:08:46,274
where I can't even
acknowledge her.

185
00:08:46,275 --> 00:08:49,033
Where's my stuff?

186
00:08:49,034 --> 00:08:51,723
Ooh, there's too many
strong men around here

187
00:08:51,724 --> 00:08:53,999
for me to carry my own things.
- Okay.

188
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,412
Coming into semifinals,
I feel very confident

189
00:08:56,413 --> 00:08:57,723
in going all the way.

190
00:08:57,724 --> 00:09:01,309
I am so happy with what
I delivered in my bracket.

191
00:09:01,310 --> 00:09:02,792
Oh, girl...

192
00:09:02,793 --> 00:09:04,792
As if life wasn't
already hard.

193
00:09:04,793 --> 00:09:08,378
And I am very proud
to see A'keria here.

194
00:09:08,379 --> 00:09:10,343
That's my family.
She's my niece.

195
00:09:10,344 --> 00:09:13,274
The Davenport dynasty
is together.

196
00:09:13,275 --> 00:09:14,343
Yes, ma'am.

197
00:09:14,344 --> 00:09:15,861
<i>And with this Rate-A-Queen,</i>

198
00:09:15,862 --> 00:09:20,792
having somebody that I know
have my back in the Werk Room

199
00:09:20,793 --> 00:09:23,171
is, like, top-tier.

200
00:09:23,172 --> 00:09:24,240
You come over here with us,

201
00:09:24,241 --> 00:09:25,619
you come over here
with the veterans.

202
00:09:25,620 --> 00:09:27,826
This rule format--
I'm expecting everyone here

203
00:09:27,827 --> 00:09:29,757
to act a damn fool
the whole time.

204
00:09:29,758 --> 00:09:31,378
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- What does that mean?

205
00:09:31,379 --> 00:09:32,585
Playing games,

206
00:09:32,586 --> 00:09:33,999
lying, scheming.
- Yeah, yeah.

207
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,757
Coming back
to the semifinals,

208
00:09:35,758 --> 00:09:37,895
I thought this was
good old-fashioned

209
00:09:37,896 --> 00:09:39,343
standard classic "Drag Race."

210
00:09:39,344 --> 00:09:41,654
<i>Show your pretty dresses,
and, you know,</i>

211
00:09:41,655 --> 00:09:44,102
the judges will decide.

212
00:09:44,103 --> 00:09:47,343
Now this is a game
of social-strategy warfare.

213
00:09:47,344 --> 00:09:49,964
Ooh, look at our tour sisters
back together.

214
00:09:49,965 --> 00:09:51,516
- Yay.
- Oh, my God.

215
00:09:51,517 --> 00:09:53,067
- Family.
- We did tour together.

216
00:09:53,068 --> 00:09:55,585
We all did.
We had all 36 states together.

217
00:09:55,586 --> 00:09:57,550
- And now we're competing.
- I know.

218
00:09:57,551 --> 00:09:59,068
But maybe, you know...

219
00:10:01,482 --> 00:10:04,550
You know, the Rate-A-Queen
is very interesting.

220
00:10:04,551 --> 00:10:06,481
<i>In my preliminary round,</i>

221
00:10:06,482 --> 00:10:09,862
my social aspect of the game
wasn't the best.

222
00:10:12,034 --> 00:10:13,274
Obviously.

223
00:10:13,275 --> 00:10:14,585
I put April.

224
00:10:14,586 --> 00:10:16,826
<i>Silky got me good.</i>

225
00:10:16,827 --> 00:10:18,447
<i>So, in the semifinals,</i>

226
00:10:18,448 --> 00:10:21,240
I'm not gonna count
on anyone looking out for me.

227
00:10:21,241 --> 00:10:22,930
- I'm a little gagged.
- Gagged.

228
00:10:22,931 --> 00:10:24,895
'Cause that means
everyone has an opinion now.

229
00:10:24,896 --> 00:10:26,171
I know.

230
00:10:26,172 --> 00:10:27,999
We all usually do.

231
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,343
This is gaggy,

232
00:10:29,344 --> 00:10:31,585
'cause we control
the girls in the bottom now.

233
00:10:31,586 --> 00:10:33,481
You're blocking
my camera, bitch.

234
00:10:33,482 --> 00:10:34,895
Then move.
Find another one.

235
00:10:34,896 --> 00:10:36,412
You move,
you little feather duster.

236
00:10:36,413 --> 00:10:38,550
<i>Oh, I love rating.
Yeah, I'm professional, baby.</i>

237
00:10:38,551 --> 00:10:39,757
I rate queens every day.

238
00:10:39,758 --> 00:10:42,895
Honey, I look at them
and go, trash, horrible.

239
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,792
Jasmine,
you can shut the fuck up.

240
00:10:45,793 --> 00:10:47,757
No. Did I shut up
the first time?

241
00:10:47,758 --> 00:10:49,619
- You'll learn.
- No, I don't think I will.

242
00:10:49,620 --> 00:10:51,274
I don't think
you will either, girl.

243
00:10:51,275 --> 00:10:52,757
Put a cork in it, girl.

244
00:10:52,758 --> 00:10:54,378
<i>It gets a little
nerve-racking just in general</i>

245
00:10:54,379 --> 00:10:55,792
<i>because it's a social game.</i>

246
00:10:55,793 --> 00:10:58,550
So maybe I should shut up.

247
00:10:58,551 --> 00:10:59,723
Probably won't.

248
00:10:59,724 --> 00:11:01,757
Now I have to be nice?

249
00:11:01,758 --> 00:11:03,826
Jasmine, go ahead
and get packed, girl.

250
00:11:12,827 --> 00:11:14,343
- Ooh.
- We got to give storyteller.

251
00:11:14,344 --> 00:11:16,240
- Ooh! Oh!
- They choreographed the dance.

252
00:11:16,241 --> 00:11:18,309
It's time
to write our material

253
00:11:18,310 --> 00:11:20,309
<i>for the Tell Me Something Good
story hour.</i>

254
00:11:20,310 --> 00:11:23,274
<i>And I'm ready
to tell a story, bitch--</i>

255
00:11:23,275 --> 00:11:26,757
Dr. Seuss style,
Mother Goose style.

256
00:11:26,758 --> 00:11:29,757
It is my time
to redeem myself...

257
00:11:29,758 --> 00:11:32,343
<i>because the last time
I did a similar challenge,</i>

258
00:11:32,344 --> 00:11:33,861
I was in the bottom.

259
00:11:33,862 --> 00:11:36,067
For this challenge,
you have to be willing

260
00:11:36,068 --> 00:11:38,964
to act a fool,
to be a complete idiot.

261
00:11:38,965 --> 00:11:41,792
And I know that's hard
for you, Sam.

262
00:11:41,793 --> 00:11:43,999
I was definitely too focused
on being perfect.

263
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,895
So, this time,
we're gonna have fun.

264
00:11:46,896 --> 00:11:48,550
I hope.

265
00:11:49,862 --> 00:11:51,792
I'm just hoping
I can impress the girls,

266
00:11:51,793 --> 00:11:54,619
and, you know,
if I'm not in the top,

267
00:11:54,620 --> 00:11:56,516
hopefully the girls don't put
me on the bottom.

268
00:11:56,517 --> 00:11:57,999
You know?
- Right.

269
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,585
The social aspect--

270
00:12:00,586 --> 00:12:02,964
I think
that we have an advantage

271
00:12:02,965 --> 00:12:04,550
because there's four
from our bracket.

272
00:12:04,551 --> 00:12:05,930
I hope we can use that.

273
00:12:05,931 --> 00:12:08,102
<i>Are we going to have
a Bracket 3 alliance?</i>

274
00:12:08,103 --> 00:12:11,619
I hope so, because to have
the majority of the group

275
00:12:11,620 --> 00:12:13,861
have my back--sickening.

276
00:12:13,862 --> 00:12:15,654
No, they're very quiet
over there.

277
00:12:15,655 --> 00:12:16,757
Think they're scheming?

278
00:12:16,758 --> 00:12:18,240
Do you think
they're scheming?

279
00:12:18,241 --> 00:12:19,481
Joey likes to scheme.

280
00:12:19,482 --> 00:12:21,067
I don't know--
Joey was, like, a little snippy

281
00:12:21,068 --> 00:12:22,412
with me during Bracket 3.

282
00:12:22,413 --> 00:12:24,343
<i>And also, too, like,
I am the vibe checker.</i>

283
00:12:24,344 --> 00:12:26,412
<i>And there was something
about her energy.</i>

284
00:12:26,413 --> 00:12:28,240
<i>She was always
maybe a little sly.</i>

285
00:12:28,241 --> 00:12:30,585
So, you know, I definitely have
an eye on her.

286
00:12:30,586 --> 00:12:32,931
- Do you want to scheme?
- What are we scheming about?

287
00:12:34,793 --> 00:12:37,343
Our alliance could be,
like, if you flop,

288
00:12:37,344 --> 00:12:39,585
I won't put you last.

289
00:12:39,586 --> 00:12:41,585
Jasmine is probably
the girl in the room

290
00:12:41,586 --> 00:12:43,585
that I'm the closest with.

291
00:12:43,586 --> 00:12:45,516
But I'm not very close
with her.

292
00:12:45,517 --> 00:12:47,757
<i>I've met her
maybe two or three times.</i>

293
00:12:47,758 --> 00:12:49,102
<i>We're both from New York.</i>

294
00:12:49,103 --> 00:12:50,826
<i>And I want to have something.</i>

295
00:12:50,827 --> 00:12:53,067
Like, I want to make sure that,
like, someone knows

296
00:12:53,068 --> 00:12:54,585
that, like, I'm in their court

297
00:12:54,586 --> 00:12:56,448
so that hopefully
they'll be in my court.

298
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,309
I'm not even gonna lie.

299
00:13:01,310 --> 00:13:03,378
I was supposed to give you
that last point.

300
00:13:03,379 --> 00:13:05,654
And I really beat myself up
for that

301
00:13:05,655 --> 00:13:07,585
because I didn't think
I would make it to the top.

302
00:13:07,586 --> 00:13:09,067
Yeah, I know
where your mind was.

303
00:13:09,068 --> 00:13:11,102
And, you know, I don't want
you to think

304
00:13:11,103 --> 00:13:14,412
that, like, I did that
out of any malice or ill will.

305
00:13:14,413 --> 00:13:16,240
I really did think I was gonna
make it to the top.

306
00:13:16,241 --> 00:13:19,412
We're all here for ourselves,
but, like, I am here for you...

307
00:13:19,413 --> 00:13:20,930
I'm here for you.

308
00:13:20,931 --> 00:13:24,274
In the meantime, until we get
to that last second, you know.

309
00:13:24,275 --> 00:13:27,240
I believe that Silky
really genuinely feels bad.

310
00:13:27,241 --> 00:13:29,274
<i>So I forgive my sister.</i>

311
00:13:29,275 --> 00:13:32,067
<i>Going forward, you know,
I'm not gonna, like,</i>

312
00:13:32,068 --> 00:13:33,930
put all my trust in Silky.

313
00:13:33,931 --> 00:13:37,447
But I think that she will have
my back a little bit more

314
00:13:37,448 --> 00:13:39,723
than she did before,
when it comes to Rate-A-Queen.

315
00:13:39,724 --> 00:13:42,585
All of my challenges
that I've won on "Drag Race"

316
00:13:42,586 --> 00:13:44,895
have been nothing but comedy.
- Mm-hmm.

317
00:13:44,896 --> 00:13:48,516
So I'm thinking about talking
about where it started--

318
00:13:48,517 --> 00:13:51,274
being a class clown--
and just tell some stories

319
00:13:51,275 --> 00:13:53,412
about getting my ass whupped
in school.

320
00:13:53,413 --> 00:13:54,999
- Like, you got bullied?
- No.

321
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:55,999
Oh, your mama beat you?

322
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,585
-  Yeah.
- She should.

323
00:13:57,586 --> 00:14:00,688
I feel strong on the stage
with a mic in my hand,

324
00:14:00,689 --> 00:14:03,447
so I'm excited
about this challenge.

325
00:14:03,448 --> 00:14:05,757
This is the opportunity
for us to, like,

326
00:14:05,758 --> 00:14:08,999
just relax
and have fun with it.

327
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,274
I'm a very organic speaker.

328
00:14:11,275 --> 00:14:14,033
I don't like to write
a script full out

329
00:14:14,034 --> 00:14:16,999
because what I have written
would ultimately be

330
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,481
too rehearsed,
and then I start to fuck up.

331
00:14:19,482 --> 00:14:21,067
I'm nervous.

332
00:14:21,068 --> 00:14:23,792
Do you have funny moments
that you can talk about?

333
00:14:23,793 --> 00:14:25,205
I don't think I'm a comedian,

334
00:14:25,206 --> 00:14:27,240
so I don't know how to say,
you know...

335
00:14:27,241 --> 00:14:29,550
knock, knock, who's there?

336
00:14:31,068 --> 00:14:35,240
Yeah, like,
it's just not my gig.

337
00:14:35,241 --> 00:14:37,619
<i>To tell a story
to my younger self</i>

338
00:14:37,620 --> 00:14:39,619
<i>in hopes that
it will be funny--</i>

339
00:14:39,620 --> 00:14:42,619
it's kind of,
like, ugh, cringey.

340
00:14:42,620 --> 00:14:44,999
But I say whatever comes
to my mind.

341
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,723
So it's, like...
it could be funny.

342
00:14:47,724 --> 00:14:50,309
I'm really stuck
on what I want to talk about.

343
00:14:50,310 --> 00:14:52,757
I don't--I don't know.

344
00:14:52,758 --> 00:14:54,240
I don't even know
what to tell you.

345
00:14:54,241 --> 00:14:55,930
What?
Don't eat noodles?

346
00:14:55,931 --> 00:14:58,930
If I could tell
my younger self something...

347
00:14:58,931 --> 00:15:00,792
it'll be, bitch,
brace yourself.

348
00:15:02,620 --> 00:15:04,136
How are you guys?

349
00:15:04,137 --> 00:15:06,412
Oh, thank you so much for
joining us for today's meeting.

350
00:15:06,413 --> 00:15:08,688
Is this the table read?

351
00:15:08,689 --> 00:15:11,205
Yes, this is the table read.

352
00:15:11,206 --> 00:15:13,240
It's time for our table read

353
00:15:13,241 --> 00:15:16,412
with Mama Ru and Evan Mulrooney

354
00:15:16,413 --> 00:15:19,412
for our Tell Me Something Good
storytelling time.

355
00:15:19,413 --> 00:15:21,757
Now, I'm not going
to ask you to tell us

356
00:15:21,758 --> 00:15:25,723
what your story is that you're
gonna do on the main stage.

357
00:15:25,724 --> 00:15:28,309
But I want you
to tell us a story,

358
00:15:28,310 --> 00:15:32,274
and then Evan and I will help
shape that story,

359
00:15:32,275 --> 00:15:36,619
if it needs it,
into a better, tight storyline.

360
00:15:36,620 --> 00:15:39,861
All right, so who wants
to start first?

361
00:15:39,862 --> 00:15:43,792
Now, Jasmine, your first kiss,
your first car,

362
00:15:43,793 --> 00:15:44,964
or your first wig.

363
00:15:44,965 --> 00:15:48,136
Ooh, let's do first kiss.

364
00:15:48,137 --> 00:15:51,136
So there's this man,
like a Matthew McConaughey...

365
00:15:51,137 --> 00:15:52,895
- Okay.
- Very, very rugged.

366
00:15:52,896 --> 00:15:54,171
Yeah.

367
00:15:54,172 --> 00:15:55,930
Always kind of, like,
looking me up and down.

368
00:15:55,931 --> 00:15:57,964
One day, he took me aside,
and, you know--

369
00:15:57,965 --> 00:16:00,274
- Where were you? What--
- I was at church.

370
00:16:00,275 --> 00:16:02,033
Oh, at church.
Uh-huh.

371
00:16:02,034 --> 00:16:04,481
I was sitting there,
you know, on my knees...

372
00:16:07,413 --> 00:16:10,067
Praying that, you know,
one day,

373
00:16:10,068 --> 00:16:12,550
God would give me someone
that could treat me right.

374
00:16:12,551 --> 00:16:15,895
It's already hilarious!

375
00:16:15,896 --> 00:16:18,067
He held me
on the chinny-chin-chin.

376
00:16:18,068 --> 00:16:19,067
Uh-huh.

377
00:16:19,068 --> 00:16:21,033
- And he kissed me...
- Oh, God!

378
00:16:21,034 --> 00:16:22,964
On the cheek as a blessing.

379
00:16:22,965 --> 00:16:24,861
How beautiful.

380
00:16:24,862 --> 00:16:26,654
Girl, RuPaul
is loving my lies

381
00:16:26,655 --> 00:16:27,826
<i>and fables about the priest.</i>

382
00:16:27,827 --> 00:16:30,309
So, if she's giggling
this hard now,

383
00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:32,757
I can't wait to see how she is
when I tell my story.

384
00:16:32,758 --> 00:16:34,895
- And Dawn is back.
- Hi. How are you?

385
00:16:34,896 --> 00:16:36,723
Hi, Dawn.
Did you go back to Brooklyn?

386
00:16:36,724 --> 00:16:38,274
I sure did.

387
00:16:38,275 --> 00:16:40,585
So what was the first thing
you did when you got back home?

388
00:16:40,586 --> 00:16:43,585
Oh, my God. The first thing
I did was, well, went to bed.

389
00:16:43,586 --> 00:16:45,585
And then the second
I woke up,

390
00:16:45,586 --> 00:16:48,861
I was really interested
in feeding my soul.

391
00:16:48,862 --> 00:16:50,412
So I got on Grindr.

392
00:16:53,931 --> 00:16:58,067
I think this challenge
does play to my strengths...

393
00:16:58,068 --> 00:17:01,999
if only just because
I love just say stupid shit.

394
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,585
- I have one question.
- Shoot.

395
00:17:03,586 --> 00:17:05,723
So I'm very long-winded.

396
00:17:05,724 --> 00:17:08,895
And I could tell a story, and
I can add, add, add, add, add.

397
00:17:08,896 --> 00:17:11,930
How do I stay within the lines
but make sure

398
00:17:11,931 --> 00:17:15,309
I keep the punch line and
the three parts of the story?

399
00:17:15,310 --> 00:17:18,757
Child, I can go and tell
what each person wore,

400
00:17:18,758 --> 00:17:21,861
'cause I still remember it,
what they breath smelled like.

401
00:17:21,862 --> 00:17:23,826
But I also be up there
for ten minutes.

402
00:17:23,827 --> 00:17:28,102
I think where people go
astray with storytelling

403
00:17:28,103 --> 00:17:30,585
is starting to talk
about things

404
00:17:30,586 --> 00:17:32,102
that don't add to the story.

405
00:17:32,103 --> 00:17:35,723
Don't go into this rabbit hole
of embellishing things

406
00:17:35,724 --> 00:17:37,861
that don't matter.
- Mm-hmm.

407
00:17:37,862 --> 00:17:40,757
Listening to that advice,
it's very encouraging.

408
00:17:40,758 --> 00:17:43,585
<i>Especially after winning
my how-to challenge</i>

409
00:17:43,586 --> 00:17:46,447
in my preliminary bracket,
I know I can do this.

410
00:17:46,448 --> 00:17:48,412
You know what I want to do?
I want to go around the table.

411
00:17:48,413 --> 00:17:50,826
I want to say,
when you think of A'keria,

412
00:17:50,827 --> 00:17:53,309
what's the first thing
you think of, right?

413
00:17:53,310 --> 00:17:55,999
So this exercise is to give
you an idea of the consensus

414
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,585
of how you make fun
of yourself.

415
00:17:57,586 --> 00:17:59,861
'Cause when I think of A'keria,
I say, ooh, all that ass.

416
00:17:59,862 --> 00:18:01,274
Yeah.

417
00:18:01,275 --> 00:18:03,274
So, A'keria, when you think
of Sam Star, first thing.

418
00:18:03,275 --> 00:18:04,619
- Country.
- Country?

419
00:18:04,620 --> 00:18:07,136
What about you, Jasmine?
- Cousin fucker.

420
00:18:10,275 --> 00:18:13,481
That was one time!

421
00:18:13,482 --> 00:18:15,792
- That's funny, though.
- Write that down.

422
00:18:15,793 --> 00:18:17,240
Jasmine, what do
you think of Joey Jay?

423
00:18:17,241 --> 00:18:20,309
- Chicken feathers.
- Chicken feathers!

424
00:18:20,310 --> 00:18:21,757
That's the first thing
I think of.

425
00:18:21,758 --> 00:18:23,412
- What a bitch.
- All right, all right.

426
00:18:23,413 --> 00:18:25,240
A'keria, what's the first thing
you think of Joey Jay?

427
00:18:25,241 --> 00:18:26,309
Two points.

428
00:18:29,137 --> 00:18:31,240
I'm still here, bitches.

429
00:18:31,241 --> 00:18:34,033
I'm still sitting
with all y'all.

430
00:18:34,034 --> 00:18:35,585
<i>I am a wild card.</i>

431
00:18:35,586 --> 00:18:38,240
So they probably don't see me
as competition.

432
00:18:38,241 --> 00:18:40,757
You know, Joey Jay is gay.

433
00:18:40,758 --> 00:18:42,757
- And dumb.
- And dumb.

434
00:18:42,758 --> 00:18:45,447
Even if you included
a story of how dumb you are,

435
00:18:45,448 --> 00:18:48,136
if the story--
I walked into the club--

436
00:18:48,137 --> 00:18:49,585
And I hit my head.

437
00:18:51,586 --> 00:18:53,378
And you hit your head, yes.

438
00:18:53,379 --> 00:18:55,792
'Cause I walked
into the club.

439
00:18:55,793 --> 00:18:58,930
<i>I have a dumb sense of humor,</i>

440
00:18:58,931 --> 00:19:02,378
which I'm gonna 100% use
that to my advantage.

441
00:19:02,379 --> 00:19:03,757
Everybody's got a notepad.

442
00:19:03,758 --> 00:19:05,723
What have you been writing
in these notepads?

443
00:19:05,724 --> 00:19:07,378
- Love letters.
- Recipes.

444
00:19:07,379 --> 00:19:09,619
- My name.
- I drew a picture of you both.

445
00:19:09,620 --> 00:19:12,171
- Of course you did.
- Thank you.

446
00:19:12,172 --> 00:19:13,585
Of course you did.

447
00:19:13,586 --> 00:19:16,067
Crystal, tell us a great story.

448
00:19:16,068 --> 00:19:18,723
Ooh. Um...

449
00:19:18,724 --> 00:19:20,171
I don't know.

450
00:19:20,172 --> 00:19:23,343
Uh, you know, like, when you
get called on by a teacher

451
00:19:23,344 --> 00:19:25,516
and you're not expecting it,
it's very that.

452
00:19:25,517 --> 00:19:28,585
A story about, I don't know,
your first bicycle.

453
00:19:28,586 --> 00:19:31,412
I'm a visual girl.
I hated English.

454
00:19:31,413 --> 00:19:33,171
I always
hated writing stories.

455
00:19:33,172 --> 00:19:37,102
However, there is no choice
but to meet those expectations

456
00:19:37,103 --> 00:19:38,861
and answer the call.

457
00:19:38,862 --> 00:19:40,861
It was Christmas,
and me and my brother

458
00:19:40,862 --> 00:19:44,102
were both gifted
electrical scooters.

459
00:19:44,103 --> 00:19:46,412
And before I even put
my foot on the pedal,

460
00:19:46,413 --> 00:19:49,205
my brother drove off the curb,
face-planted.

461
00:19:49,206 --> 00:19:51,343
Stands up, face bloody.

462
00:19:51,344 --> 00:19:53,792
And I never rode
the motor scooter ever.

463
00:19:53,793 --> 00:19:55,654
-  Wow.
- And I still haven't.

464
00:19:57,758 --> 00:19:59,585
See, where you
went wrong, Crystal...

465
00:20:00,862 --> 00:20:03,067
In terms of storytelling
in general,

466
00:20:03,068 --> 00:20:05,516
we want to have
a place to go, right?

467
00:20:05,517 --> 00:20:08,412
Like, where can you go
from there?

468
00:20:08,413 --> 00:20:10,412
I'm gonna...

469
00:20:10,413 --> 00:20:12,309
Pull something out of my ass.

470
00:20:12,310 --> 00:20:14,723
We're working
an overnight shift tonight.

471
00:20:14,724 --> 00:20:16,136
Good luck...

472
00:20:16,137 --> 00:20:18,102
and don't fuck it up.

473
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,757
- Good mor-ting.
- Oh, my God, Tina Burner.

474
00:20:25,758 --> 00:20:28,171
We're back.

475
00:20:28,172 --> 00:20:30,274
Challenge day.

476
00:20:30,275 --> 00:20:33,895
Today we will tell our
Tell Me Something Good stories

477
00:20:33,896 --> 00:20:35,654
on the main stage.

478
00:20:35,655 --> 00:20:38,412
<i>My whole approach
is making a fool of myself,</i>

479
00:20:38,413 --> 00:20:40,550
which usually runs in my favor.

480
00:20:40,551 --> 00:20:42,481
I'm feeling very good
about this challenge.

481
00:20:42,482 --> 00:20:43,792
I memorized it, so...

482
00:20:43,793 --> 00:20:46,067
Yeah, are you gonna be using
note cards, Silky?

483
00:20:46,068 --> 00:20:47,274
No, I'm not using cards.

484
00:20:47,275 --> 00:20:48,585
- No cards?
- No cards.

485
00:20:48,586 --> 00:20:50,412
Love it.
You, Crystal?

486
00:20:50,413 --> 00:20:52,240
You know,
I'm just gonna wing it.

487
00:20:53,758 --> 00:20:55,999
<i>Child, you know you playing.</i>

488
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,136
Crystal is very calculated.

489
00:20:58,137 --> 00:21:00,550
<i>Sure, she was struggling
in that workshop,</i>

490
00:21:00,551 --> 00:21:05,205
but knowing that old kooky,
conceptual bitch...

491
00:21:05,206 --> 00:21:07,205
baby, I know it's probably
gonna be a good story.

492
00:21:07,206 --> 00:21:08,619
I ain't even gonna lie.

493
00:21:08,620 --> 00:21:13,102
After the workshop with Ru,
I got some more ideas...

494
00:21:13,103 --> 00:21:15,067
- Yeah.
- To spice it up.

495
00:21:15,068 --> 00:21:18,343
I did some changes,
some additions.

496
00:21:18,344 --> 00:21:20,723
- Fucking cousins?
- Exactly.

497
00:21:20,724 --> 00:21:21,895
Got it.

498
00:21:21,896 --> 00:21:23,895
How are you feeling
about Rate-A-Queen?

499
00:21:26,172 --> 00:21:27,481
I don't know.

500
00:21:27,482 --> 00:21:29,826
I think I'm genuinely
just gonna wait and see

501
00:21:29,827 --> 00:21:32,757
who I think didn't do
the best for now.

502
00:21:32,758 --> 00:21:34,205
- Yeah.
- You know what I mean?

503
00:21:34,206 --> 00:21:35,757
I feel like it's so early.

504
00:21:35,758 --> 00:21:39,240
I'd like to think that my
Bracket 3 sisters have my back,

505
00:21:39,241 --> 00:21:42,240
as I would them.

506
00:21:42,241 --> 00:21:44,412
Like, I'm just wondering
if, like, the brackets

507
00:21:44,413 --> 00:21:46,861
are gonna, like, stick
with each other.

508
00:21:46,862 --> 00:21:49,067
Mm-hmm.
I don't know.

509
00:21:49,068 --> 00:21:51,205
- I don't know.
- I haven't talk to them.

510
00:21:51,206 --> 00:21:54,067
<i>But Sam's not giving me
anything to work with.</i>

511
00:21:54,068 --> 00:21:57,757
<i>So, at this point,
it is a mindfuck.</i>

512
00:21:57,758 --> 00:22:00,585
I'm trying to build these bonds
and relationships.

513
00:22:00,586 --> 00:22:03,861
Who would y'all consider
to be your closest friend

514
00:22:03,862 --> 00:22:05,067
here at the moment?

515
00:22:05,068 --> 00:22:06,585
I think...

516
00:22:06,586 --> 00:22:10,171
I have a lot of people
that I'm close to.

517
00:22:10,172 --> 00:22:12,102
Like, I'm friends
with everyone.

518
00:22:12,103 --> 00:22:16,895
Well, I'm close to A'keria
because she's my niece.

519
00:22:16,896 --> 00:22:19,930
Yeah, I mean, I know Silky
and Jasmine the most.

520
00:22:19,931 --> 00:22:21,792
I spent the most time
with them.

521
00:22:21,793 --> 00:22:23,240
How about you, A'keria?

522
00:22:23,241 --> 00:22:25,930
Kennedy. That's the closest
person I'm in here.

523
00:22:25,931 --> 00:22:27,378
And...?

524
00:22:29,482 --> 00:22:30,861
Yeah.

525
00:22:30,862 --> 00:22:32,482
You know,
Jasmine, I realize...

526
00:22:36,275 --> 00:22:39,413
I just don't expect A'keria
to rank me fairly.

527
00:22:43,068 --> 00:22:45,585
<i>But, honestly, I don't have
any words for her any longer,</i>

528
00:22:45,586 --> 00:22:49,171
and it's because of what
she said on social media.

529
00:22:49,172 --> 00:22:51,930
<i>She told everybody
that I was talentless.</i>

530
00:22:51,931 --> 00:22:54,240
<i>She talked
about my weight-loss journey.</i>

531
00:22:54,241 --> 00:22:55,930
<i>She questioned my character,</i>

532
00:22:55,931 --> 00:22:58,585
<i>about me being a good person
and a reverend.</i>

533
00:22:58,586 --> 00:23:01,172
Uh-uh. It just
don't sit well with me.

534
00:23:03,310 --> 00:23:04,550
Mm-hmm.

535
00:23:04,551 --> 00:23:06,067
You have other people,
too, that, you know,

536
00:23:06,068 --> 00:23:08,447
like, are there for you and,
like, will watch out for you,

537
00:23:08,448 --> 00:23:09,964
so...

538
00:23:09,965 --> 00:23:12,067
With this whole
Rate-A-Queen thing,

539
00:23:12,068 --> 00:23:14,343
<i>I'ma try to play it,
for the most part, fairly,</i>

540
00:23:14,344 --> 00:23:18,274
because if I was to do
some shady business,

541
00:23:18,275 --> 00:23:19,723
<i>the girls could find out</i>

542
00:23:19,724 --> 00:23:22,102
and automatically come
for me next week.

543
00:23:22,103 --> 00:23:24,585
I would say
I would probably be closest

544
00:23:24,586 --> 00:23:26,240
to all the Bracket 3 girls,

545
00:23:26,241 --> 00:23:28,067
I mean, just because
we've had so much time

546
00:23:28,068 --> 00:23:29,412
to get to know each other.

547
00:23:29,413 --> 00:23:30,895
- Yes.
- Mm-hmm.

548
00:23:30,896 --> 00:23:32,481
How do you feel like the
points went down in Bracket 3?

549
00:23:32,482 --> 00:23:35,067
I feel like we were
all eager to play the game,

550
00:23:35,068 --> 00:23:36,999
but we didn't have
very many opportunities

551
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,412
to be alone with someone,
so, like--

552
00:23:39,413 --> 00:23:41,861
I don't know.
I saw you a couple times.

553
00:23:43,413 --> 00:23:45,240
Well, I'm just saying.
I'm just saying.

554
00:23:45,241 --> 00:23:47,067
You wanted to go there,
we could go there.

555
00:23:47,068 --> 00:23:48,585
I didn't go anywhere, girl.

556
00:23:48,586 --> 00:23:50,999
Vibe change tonight.

557
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,654
Oh, my God, girl.

558
00:23:52,655 --> 00:23:54,861
I was okay with how
the game was played.

559
00:23:54,862 --> 00:23:57,481
I just honestly feel
like I couldn't rely

560
00:23:57,482 --> 00:23:59,240
on anybody at that time.

561
00:23:59,241 --> 00:24:01,309
It seems like y'all have
a lot of drama

562
00:24:01,310 --> 00:24:02,826
in y'all bracket.

563
00:24:02,827 --> 00:24:04,550
We got a little.

564
00:24:04,551 --> 00:24:07,619
Being that this is
my fourth time competing,

565
00:24:07,620 --> 00:24:12,205
I feel like I was put
in the category of a threat

566
00:24:12,206 --> 00:24:13,757
in this tournament.

567
00:24:13,758 --> 00:24:15,309
So, hell, yeah,
that's gonna apply

568
00:24:15,310 --> 00:24:16,654
to the Rate-A-Queen situations,

569
00:24:16,655 --> 00:24:18,999
<i>because now if I don't win
the challenge,</i>

570
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,723
they are gonna use
that opportunity

571
00:24:20,724 --> 00:24:22,033
to put me in the bottom.

572
00:24:22,034 --> 00:24:23,792
My season was the first
that had Rate-A-Queen.

573
00:24:23,793 --> 00:24:25,067
Ooh.

574
00:24:25,068 --> 00:24:27,723
Well, did the cast vote
based on performance,

575
00:24:27,724 --> 00:24:29,550
or did they use
a little bit of strategy?

576
00:24:29,551 --> 00:24:31,033
There were definitely
friendships

577
00:24:31,034 --> 00:24:32,240
taken into account, you know?

578
00:24:32,241 --> 00:24:33,861
It's like, if you've known
someone for years

579
00:24:33,862 --> 00:24:35,481
and they didn't do
a good job,

580
00:24:35,482 --> 00:24:37,067
you're not gonna
put them seventh.

581
00:24:37,068 --> 00:24:39,171
You're gonna put them
fourth or fifth.

582
00:24:39,172 --> 00:24:42,895
So there's definitely, like...

583
00:24:42,896 --> 00:24:45,585
a piece of dread
going into this.

584
00:24:45,586 --> 00:24:47,757
You know, even though me
and Jasmine spoke briefly

585
00:24:47,758 --> 00:24:49,412
about an alliance yesterday,

586
00:24:49,413 --> 00:24:52,585
<i>she has personal relationships
with a bunch of other people.</i>

587
00:24:52,586 --> 00:24:54,205
<i>And then the rest
of these girls--</i>

588
00:24:54,206 --> 00:24:56,550
<i>I can't trust them
as far as I can throw them.</i>

589
00:24:56,551 --> 00:24:58,964
They know that
I tore up Bracket 1.

590
00:24:58,965 --> 00:25:01,861
And if they see a chance
to get me out of here,

591
00:25:01,862 --> 00:25:03,447
I don't think
they wouldn't take it.

Welcome to the main stage

601
00:25:36,931 --> 00:25:40,171
of "RuPaul's Drag Race:
Tournament of All Stars."

602
00:25:40,172 --> 00:25:43,274
Here's the story
of a lovely lady.

603
00:25:43,275 --> 00:25:44,585
It's Michelle Visage.

604
00:25:44,586 --> 00:25:47,930
And that's the way
we all became the Shady bunch.

605
00:25:47,931 --> 00:25:51,378
And Victoria Porkchop Parker
as Alice.

606
00:25:51,379 --> 00:25:53,723
Yes, there's only one.

607
00:25:53,724 --> 00:25:56,550
Style superstar,
Carson Kressley.

608
00:25:56,551 --> 00:25:58,240
Do you like your stories?

609
00:25:58,241 --> 00:26:01,447
Oh, yes, "All My Children,"
"The Bold And The Beautiful."

610
00:26:01,448 --> 00:26:03,688
Is "Passions" still on?

611
00:26:03,689 --> 00:26:05,930
In Slovenia, yeah.

612
00:26:05,931 --> 00:26:08,550
You can't judge a book
by its cover.

613
00:26:08,551 --> 00:26:10,550
It's Evan Mulrooney.

614
00:26:10,551 --> 00:26:13,343
Ru, I'm a lot dumber
than I look.

615
00:26:16,862 --> 00:26:20,585
This week we challenged
our All Stars to entertaint us

616
00:26:20,586 --> 00:26:22,343
with their storytelling.

617
00:26:22,344 --> 00:26:24,447
Tonight on the runway,
category is

618
00:26:24,448 --> 00:26:27,412
Red Carpet Realness.

619
00:26:27,413 --> 00:26:29,654
All Stars, start your engines.

620
00:26:29,655 --> 00:26:33,067
And may
the best drag queen win.

621
00:26:33,068 --> 00:26:34,240
Welcome

622
00:26:34,241 --> 00:26:36,723
to the Tell Me Something Good
story hour.

623
00:26:38,137 --> 00:26:40,999
Welcome, Dawn.

624
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,378
- Come on, Dawn.
- Work, Dawn.

625
00:26:43,379 --> 00:26:45,895
- Doing great, sweetie.
- Good job, Dawn.

626
00:26:45,896 --> 00:26:48,585
Dawn, what words of wisdom

627
00:26:48,586 --> 00:26:51,205
do you have
for your younger self?

628
00:26:51,206 --> 00:26:53,723
I think what I'd want to say
to my younger self

629
00:26:53,724 --> 00:26:55,895
is to always savor
the great times

630
00:26:55,896 --> 00:26:57,688
that you have
with your friends.

631
00:26:57,689 --> 00:27:02,516
Like, this one time,
you are at the beach house

632
00:27:02,517 --> 00:27:04,481
with three
of your best friends--

633
00:27:04,482 --> 00:27:07,619
Amy, Sarah, and Josh,
all right?

634
00:27:07,620 --> 00:27:11,999
It's a beautiful,
tropical, exotic location...

635
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,343
North Carolina.

636
00:27:13,344 --> 00:27:15,067
all:
Ooh.

637
00:27:15,068 --> 00:27:18,861
So I procured some marijuana,
and Sarah brought the pipe.

638
00:27:18,862 --> 00:27:20,447
So we start passing
that shit around.

639
00:27:20,448 --> 00:27:22,964
I look up and see
that Josh is standing

640
00:27:22,965 --> 00:27:26,999
this close to the mirror,
convinced that he is a puppet.

641
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,688
And then Sarah,
she is checking her heart rate,

642
00:27:29,689 --> 00:27:32,274
convinced that it is
1,000 beats per minute.

643
00:27:32,275 --> 00:27:33,999
And then Amy--oh, my God,

644
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,343
Amy comes up to me,
her cute little ass,

645
00:27:36,344 --> 00:27:41,067
and she says, hey, so I think
I'm having trouble breathing,

646
00:27:41,068 --> 00:27:43,654
and I might be choking.

647
00:27:43,655 --> 00:27:46,585
So I called 911.

648
00:27:46,586 --> 00:27:48,136
Yeah.

649
00:27:48,137 --> 00:27:50,412
Hello, 911.
What's your emergency?

650
00:27:50,413 --> 00:27:52,723
And then I said...

651
00:27:52,724 --> 00:27:54,067
help!

652
00:27:54,068 --> 00:27:58,033
My friends are fucking dying!

653
00:27:58,034 --> 00:28:00,274
So the cops are almost
definitely on the way.

654
00:28:00,275 --> 00:28:02,136
- Uh-oh.
- I grabbed that jar of weed.

655
00:28:02,137 --> 00:28:06,585
I'm gonna bury it
in the backyard.

656
00:28:06,586 --> 00:28:09,964
I run to the backyard,
and I start digging.

657
00:28:09,965 --> 00:28:11,550
I bury my little weed.

658
00:28:11,551 --> 00:28:14,205
I get up.

659
00:28:14,206 --> 00:28:18,240
My hands--
they're covered in dirt.

660
00:28:18,241 --> 00:28:21,412
So I decide to start licking

661
00:28:21,413 --> 00:28:24,654
the dirt off of my fingers.

662
00:28:24,655 --> 00:28:25,895
And then...

663
00:28:25,896 --> 00:28:27,412
a knock on the door.

664
00:28:28,862 --> 00:28:31,550
And there standing
in the doorway...

665
00:28:31,551 --> 00:28:33,895
is beach patrol?

666
00:28:33,896 --> 00:28:37,619
Two 21-year-old dudes
with surfboards.

667
00:28:37,620 --> 00:28:40,067
These dudes with surfboards
end up telling us

668
00:28:40,068 --> 00:28:42,481
to maybe not smoke so much
next time,

669
00:28:42,482 --> 00:28:45,585
but that moment has taught me
that I will always go

670
00:28:45,586 --> 00:28:49,033
to the end of the Earth
to protect not just myself

671
00:28:49,034 --> 00:28:51,240
but also all of my friends.

672
00:28:51,241 --> 00:28:52,861
Thank you.

673
00:28:52,862 --> 00:28:55,757
- Yay.
- Work, bitch.

674
00:28:55,758 --> 00:28:59,516
I do like Dawn, but I could
just have used more jokes.

675
00:28:59,517 --> 00:29:01,309
Thank you.

676
00:29:01,310 --> 00:29:03,964
Hey, hey, it's Joey Jay.

677
00:29:03,965 --> 00:29:06,171
Yay, JoJo.

678
00:29:09,689 --> 00:29:14,274
Joey, what words of wisdom do
you have for your younger self?

679
00:29:14,275 --> 00:29:16,757
You're gonna grow up poor.

680
00:29:16,758 --> 00:29:20,619
But after years of hard work,
you will be older.

681
00:29:20,620 --> 00:29:22,930
Let me tell you about my dad.

682
00:29:22,931 --> 00:29:25,723
He was a magician.

683
00:29:30,413 --> 00:29:33,619
He did this one trick where
he disappeared for 34 years,

684
00:29:33,620 --> 00:29:35,655
and we still can't find him.

685
00:29:40,482 --> 00:29:42,067
Come on, Joey.

686
00:29:42,068 --> 00:29:44,895
The winter after I turned 18,
I would sneak out,

687
00:29:44,896 --> 00:29:46,964
and I would steal
my mother's car.

688
00:29:46,965 --> 00:29:48,619
I would pick up my best friend.

689
00:29:48,620 --> 00:29:51,067
We would then drive 84 miles

690
00:29:51,068 --> 00:29:53,274
to go to the club
for chicken night.

691
00:29:53,275 --> 00:29:54,999
That means that it's 18 and up.

692
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,861
I remember it so vividly,

693
00:29:56,862 --> 00:29:59,861
standing there
in a black velour dress.

694
00:29:59,862 --> 00:30:03,757
There she was,
Desiree Matthews.

695
00:30:03,758 --> 00:30:08,550
She voluptuously moved her big
hips and slithered towards me.

696
00:30:08,551 --> 00:30:12,895
Hey, daddy, you ever choke on
a hot dog with a real woman?

697
00:30:20,482 --> 00:30:22,654
Six months later,
I finally come clean to my mom

698
00:30:22,655 --> 00:30:24,723
about the club
and about Desiree.

699
00:30:24,724 --> 00:30:27,309
After grounding me, of course,
she goes, wait a minute.

700
00:30:27,310 --> 00:30:28,654
Des and I were roommates.

701
00:30:28,655 --> 00:30:32,067
She used to change
your diapers.

702
00:30:35,724 --> 00:30:37,171
Holy shit.

703
00:30:37,172 --> 00:30:39,378
I went right to that
very next chicken night.

704
00:30:39,379 --> 00:30:41,654
I swished my little gay ass
up and down the club

705
00:30:41,655 --> 00:30:44,102
and searched for Desiree like
I was on a mission from God.

706
00:30:44,103 --> 00:30:46,723
She sees me
and slithers back over.

707
00:30:46,724 --> 00:30:48,412
Hey, daddy, you ever choke--

708
00:30:48,413 --> 00:30:50,757
And I cut her off
from the same pickup line.

709
00:30:50,758 --> 00:30:53,723
I pull out a picture, and I go,
do you know this woman?

710
00:30:53,724 --> 00:30:55,309
That's Mom.

711
00:30:55,310 --> 00:30:59,412
She says to me, oh, my gosh,
I will take good care of you.

712
00:30:59,413 --> 00:31:01,033
Fast forward a year.

713
00:31:01,034 --> 00:31:04,102
And she's like, Joey,
you have the face for drag.

714
00:31:04,103 --> 00:31:06,757
So a couple shots of whiskey
later, I started painting.

715
00:31:06,758 --> 00:31:09,103
Maybe this is my calling.

716
00:31:14,103 --> 00:31:15,999
Being the first
openly gay contestant

717
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,067
on "RuPaul's Drag Race"...

718
00:31:21,758 --> 00:31:25,965
Has opened so many doors
for me, front and back.

719
00:31:30,655 --> 00:31:33,550
So, Joey, you don't need
two parents.

720
00:31:33,551 --> 00:31:36,412
You've had a fairy godmother
the entire time.

721
00:31:36,413 --> 00:31:39,412
- Yes.
- Thank you so much.

722
00:31:39,413 --> 00:31:43,723
- Yeah, JoJo!
- Good work, Joey!

723
00:31:43,724 --> 00:31:46,688
That was funny, bitch.

724
00:31:46,689 --> 00:31:49,550
Up next,
welcome Jasmine Kennedie.

725
00:31:49,551 --> 00:31:51,067
Come on, Jasmine.

726
00:31:53,068 --> 00:31:54,895
all: Ooh!
- Damn.

727
00:31:54,896 --> 00:31:56,343
Yes.

728
00:31:56,344 --> 00:31:59,895
Jasmine, what words of wisdom

729
00:31:59,896 --> 00:32:02,102
do you have
for your younger self?

730
00:32:02,103 --> 00:32:03,619
Hey, Kyle...

731
00:32:03,620 --> 00:32:04,792
pay attention.

732
00:32:04,793 --> 00:32:06,274
I'm gonna hold off
on telling you

733
00:32:06,275 --> 00:32:08,585
about the time you came out
as trans on TV,

734
00:32:08,586 --> 00:32:10,240
you iconic little bitch.

735
00:32:10,241 --> 00:32:11,757
But, instead,
I'm gonna tell you

736
00:32:11,758 --> 00:32:13,757
about the very first time
you came out.

737
00:32:13,758 --> 00:32:16,447
I was 15 years old,
living in Binghamton, New York.

738
00:32:16,448 --> 00:32:18,585
Living life as a boy
in Upstate New York,

739
00:32:18,586 --> 00:32:20,343
boys were expected
to play sports.

740
00:32:20,344 --> 00:32:23,723
So I went to every basketball
and football game

741
00:32:23,724 --> 00:32:25,481
in uniform...

742
00:32:25,482 --> 00:32:29,033
as a male cheerleader!
- Yay.

743
00:32:29,034 --> 00:32:31,930
Mom traveled for work,
and Dad would work nights,

744
00:32:31,931 --> 00:32:34,895
so me and my sister, Carly,
had a lot of time alone.

745
00:32:34,896 --> 00:32:38,171
One fateful night, I was
playing with my mom's makeup,

746
00:32:38,172 --> 00:32:40,516
putting on the nastiest
smokey eye in the world.

747
00:32:40,517 --> 00:32:43,240
All of a sudden,
I heard my phone ring.

748
00:32:50,551 --> 00:32:52,067
Hello?

749
00:32:52,068 --> 00:32:53,757
<i>Kyle, where are you?</i>

750
00:32:53,758 --> 00:32:55,412
<i>You're supposed
to be at the school</i>

751
00:32:55,413 --> 00:32:56,964
<i>cheering at a basketball game.</i>

752
00:32:56,965 --> 00:32:59,171
<i>Get here now.</i>

753
00:32:59,172 --> 00:33:02,309
Okay.

754
00:33:02,310 --> 00:33:05,585
Panic ran through my body.

755
00:33:05,586 --> 00:33:07,412
How could I go to school
looking like this?

756
00:33:07,413 --> 00:33:09,861
So I scrubbed my face,
ran down to the school,

757
00:33:09,862 --> 00:33:11,240
and into the gym I went,

758
00:33:11,241 --> 00:33:14,067
until my classmates
started interrogating me.

759
00:33:14,068 --> 00:33:17,412
Kyle, are you wearing makeup?

760
00:33:17,413 --> 00:33:19,861
First of all, rude.

761
00:33:19,862 --> 00:33:21,930
How dare they think

762
00:33:21,931 --> 00:33:24,793
a closeted male cheerleader
would be wearing makeup?

763
00:33:26,724 --> 00:33:29,343
Second of all,
I didn't think I was anymore!

764
00:33:29,344 --> 00:33:31,688
So, after all night
getting interrogated,

765
00:33:31,689 --> 00:33:33,585
it was time for me to go home.

766
00:33:33,586 --> 00:33:36,757
And who do I see?
None other than my mom!

767
00:33:36,758 --> 00:33:39,550
Kyle, are you wearing makeup?

768
00:33:39,551 --> 00:33:41,136
I couldn't hold it anymore.

769
00:33:41,137 --> 00:33:42,723
I snapped.

770
00:33:42,724 --> 00:33:45,585
Yes, Mom, because I'm gay
and I like makeup!

771
00:33:45,586 --> 00:33:48,516
Do you have a problem
with that?

772
00:33:48,517 --> 00:33:49,792
Oh, my God.

773
00:33:49,793 --> 00:33:51,861
My mom stood shocked
for a second,

774
00:33:51,862 --> 00:33:53,585
and then she giggled.

775
00:33:53,586 --> 00:33:55,654
My mom said, it's okay.

776
00:33:55,655 --> 00:33:57,895
I already knew.

777
00:33:57,896 --> 00:33:59,792
What?

778
00:33:59,793 --> 00:34:02,136
How could you have known?

779
00:34:02,137 --> 00:34:05,240
But in that moment,
I was only one thing--

780
00:34:05,241 --> 00:34:06,481
relieved.

781
00:34:06,482 --> 00:34:08,585
I have the best mom
in the world,

782
00:34:08,586 --> 00:34:10,481
and I'm so happy
she accepted me

783
00:34:10,482 --> 00:34:12,309
for who I thought
I was at the time

784
00:34:12,310 --> 00:34:14,930
and still accepts me
for who I am today.

785
00:34:14,931 --> 00:34:17,240
You know, life can be hard,
and it can be scary,

786
00:34:17,241 --> 00:34:19,378
but it's even scarier
to not live your life

787
00:34:19,379 --> 00:34:21,205
as who you were meant to be,

788
00:34:21,206 --> 00:34:22,999
'cause somewhere
out in the world,

789
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,412
there's a Kyle
who just wants the right

790
00:34:25,413 --> 00:34:28,550
and the opportunity
to be a Jasmine.

791
00:34:28,551 --> 00:34:29,964
Thank you.

792
00:34:29,965 --> 00:34:33,792
Good job, Jasmine.

793
00:34:33,793 --> 00:34:36,240
Jasmine's story
is just like her--

794
00:34:36,241 --> 00:34:38,757
a bit melodramatic but sweet.

795
00:34:38,758 --> 00:34:41,412
Yay, Jasmine.

796
00:34:41,413 --> 00:34:43,895
And now Kennedy Davenport.

797
00:34:43,896 --> 00:34:47,412
- Come on, Kennedy.
- Come on, Kennedy.

798
00:34:47,413 --> 00:34:49,205
- Damn.
- Yes.

799
00:34:49,206 --> 00:34:50,792
Welcome, Kennedy.

800
00:34:50,793 --> 00:34:54,688
What do you have to say
to your younger self?

801
00:34:54,689 --> 00:34:57,757
Don't worry, little Ruben.

802
00:34:57,758 --> 00:35:00,240
It gets greater later.

803
00:35:00,241 --> 00:35:03,102
Listen, I was a class clown.

804
00:35:03,103 --> 00:35:05,792
And growing up in the '80s,

805
00:35:05,793 --> 00:35:09,723
we were still getting
our ass whupped in school.

806
00:35:09,724 --> 00:35:11,412
It was this teacher,

807
00:35:11,413 --> 00:35:14,412
and she was
the only person that I knew

808
00:35:14,413 --> 00:35:18,068
that was on a water diet
that never lost any weight.

809
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:21,205
She couldn't take me.

810
00:35:21,206 --> 00:35:23,309
I would be having
my own conversation

811
00:35:23,310 --> 00:35:25,378
while she was teaching
the class.

812
00:35:25,379 --> 00:35:29,378
And this bitch just put me
in the back of the classroom.

813
00:35:29,379 --> 00:35:30,895
But I was still laughing,

814
00:35:30,896 --> 00:35:33,826
until she just finally got
tired and said,

815
00:35:33,827 --> 00:35:35,585
go to the principal's office.

816
00:35:35,586 --> 00:35:37,309
Now, the principal--

817
00:35:37,310 --> 00:35:40,378
just picture
George Jefferson...

818
00:35:40,379 --> 00:35:42,412
as a woman.

819
00:35:42,413 --> 00:35:44,930
And she had
this Ping-Pong paddle.

820
00:35:44,931 --> 00:35:47,274
And she said, since you want
to act like a little kid,

821
00:35:47,275 --> 00:35:48,964
I'm gonna put you over my knee.

822
00:35:48,965 --> 00:35:50,136
Ooh!

823
00:35:50,137 --> 00:35:52,930
She put me over her knee
and whupped me.

824
00:35:52,931 --> 00:35:54,447
Well, you know what?

825
00:35:54,448 --> 00:35:58,585
The worst thing you can hear
with Mama is,

826
00:35:58,586 --> 00:36:01,171
don't let the people have
to call me.

827
00:36:01,172 --> 00:36:02,861
Y'all know what that means.
- Mm-hmm.

828
00:36:02,862 --> 00:36:05,309
I need y'all help.
Y'all gonna help me?

829
00:36:05,310 --> 00:36:06,550
all:
Yes.

830
00:36:06,551 --> 00:36:09,412
I want y'all
to give me three rings.

831
00:36:09,413 --> 00:36:11,516
all:
Ring, ring, ring.

832
00:36:11,517 --> 00:36:15,033
Hello? Your child
is acting up in school.

833
00:36:15,034 --> 00:36:16,240
Oh, don't worry about it.

834
00:36:16,241 --> 00:36:17,689
I'll be right there
in a minute.

835
00:36:19,551 --> 00:36:21,240
Ooh.

836
00:36:21,241 --> 00:36:22,378
Okay.

837
00:36:22,379 --> 00:36:23,964
Oh, man.

838
00:36:23,965 --> 00:36:25,481
Uh-oh, she got the belt.

839
00:36:25,482 --> 00:36:29,378
He did what, now?

840
00:36:29,379 --> 00:36:30,999
Oh. Oh.

841
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,895
Didn't I tell you--

842
00:36:38,620 --> 00:36:40,240
Shut up!

843
00:36:43,517 --> 00:36:45,343
I said shut up.

844
00:36:47,620 --> 00:36:48,861
- Oh.
- Ooh.

845
00:36:51,275 --> 00:36:53,723
The moral of the story--

846
00:36:53,724 --> 00:36:55,550
it's okay being
the class clown.

847
00:36:55,551 --> 00:36:57,757
You may have gotten your ass
whupped in the '80s,

848
00:36:57,758 --> 00:36:59,481
but it puts you
in a place like this,

849
00:36:59,482 --> 00:37:03,136
where you win all
of the comedy challenges.

850
00:37:05,172 --> 00:37:06,930
Thank you.

851
00:37:09,275 --> 00:37:10,999
Well, now I'm depressed.

852
00:37:20,310 --> 00:37:21,619
<i>Welcome back</i>

853
00:37:21,620 --> 00:37:23,723
<i>to the Tell Me Something Good
story hour.</i>

854
00:37:23,724 --> 00:37:26,136
Our next storyteller is

855
00:37:26,137 --> 00:37:29,550
Silky Nutmeg Ganache.

856
00:37:32,413 --> 00:37:34,171
Silky, Silky, Silky...

857
00:37:34,172 --> 00:37:38,826
what words of wisdom do you
have for your younger self?

858
00:37:38,827 --> 00:37:40,930
You will become
an international star,

859
00:37:40,931 --> 00:37:43,136
and you will owe it
all to the Church.

860
00:37:43,137 --> 00:37:45,516
The little nine-year-old boy
you see,

861
00:37:45,517 --> 00:37:49,447
we called him Big Weegie.

862
00:37:49,448 --> 00:37:52,895
Big Weegie attended
a small, little church

863
00:37:52,896 --> 00:37:54,930
in Moss Point, Mississippi.

864
00:37:54,931 --> 00:37:58,688
At this church, all
the children were in the choir,

865
00:37:58,689 --> 00:38:00,930
and the choir director--

866
00:38:00,931 --> 00:38:04,240
she directed with
a wooden spoon in her hand.

867
00:38:04,241 --> 00:38:05,654
Ooh.

868
00:38:05,655 --> 00:38:07,619
Y'all may know her
as the choir director,

869
00:38:07,620 --> 00:38:09,757
but I knew her as my mama.

870
00:38:09,758 --> 00:38:11,412
- Ooh.
- Okay.

871
00:38:11,413 --> 00:38:14,136
It was one miraculous
choir rehearsal,

872
00:38:14,137 --> 00:38:17,723
and the choir director
came up to me, and she said,

873
00:38:17,724 --> 00:38:20,585
I want you to lead
the choir this Sunday.

874
00:38:20,586 --> 00:38:23,343
And then she took
that wooden spoon

875
00:38:23,344 --> 00:38:25,378
and pressed it
against my little nose,

876
00:38:25,379 --> 00:38:26,861
and she said,

877
00:38:26,862 --> 00:38:29,412
you better not cut up
in front of all these folks

878
00:38:29,413 --> 00:38:31,240
and embarrass me.
- Uh-oh.

879
00:38:31,241 --> 00:38:34,102
Little old me
was just so excited.

880
00:38:34,103 --> 00:38:37,654
I get to lead the choir
for the very first time.

881
00:38:37,655 --> 00:38:39,412
Sunday morning came,

882
00:38:39,413 --> 00:38:42,136
and, baby, I put on
my white Nancy boots.

883
00:38:45,034 --> 00:38:47,067
Yes.

884
00:38:47,068 --> 00:38:49,895
The pastor said, choir...

885
00:38:49,896 --> 00:38:51,688
please come up and sing a song.

886
00:38:51,689 --> 00:38:56,447
I ran to the microphone,
I grabbed it...

887
00:38:56,448 --> 00:38:58,619
I went to the front
of the church, and I said...

888
00:38:58,620 --> 00:39:02,033
♪ Let the church say yeah ♪

889
00:39:02,034 --> 00:39:05,136
The first lady got up,
and she said,

890
00:39:05,137 --> 00:39:07,758
you better praise Him,
Big Weegie.

891
00:39:09,758 --> 00:39:11,826
You would have thought
I was Serena Williams,

892
00:39:11,827 --> 00:39:14,930
the way I crip-walked
all over that church, baby.

893
00:39:14,931 --> 00:39:16,412
I sang, and I danced.

894
00:39:16,413 --> 00:39:19,309
I said, J-J-J-J-J-Jesus.

895
00:39:20,758 --> 00:39:23,895
The Deacon got up,
and he ran around the church.

896
00:39:23,896 --> 00:39:25,619
Oh, he ran.

897
00:39:25,620 --> 00:39:27,826
The spirit was so high, y'all.

898
00:39:27,827 --> 00:39:30,274
And then the Lord
had spoke to me.

899
00:39:30,275 --> 00:39:32,757
I just felt like
I had to tell everybody.

900
00:39:32,758 --> 00:39:36,067
So I had said
in front of the church...

901
00:39:36,068 --> 00:39:37,758
sexual chocolate!

902
00:39:40,551 --> 00:39:42,585
Work!

903
00:39:42,586 --> 00:39:45,412
And when I brought
my head back down,

904
00:39:45,413 --> 00:39:47,378
I saw my mama.
- Uh-oh.

905
00:39:47,379 --> 00:39:50,136
And I knew
she was gonna beat my ass.

906
00:39:50,137 --> 00:39:51,447
Ooh.

907
00:39:51,448 --> 00:39:53,412
I just started to walk
to the back of church.

908
00:39:53,413 --> 00:39:56,205
Sister Pearly stopped me,
and she said,

909
00:39:56,206 --> 00:39:58,447
you are very talented.

910
00:39:58,448 --> 00:40:02,688
Don't let the foolishness
outshine your little light.

911
00:40:02,689 --> 00:40:04,654
And then Sister Pearly
said to me,

912
00:40:04,655 --> 00:40:07,999
yo mama still gonna beat
your ass.

913
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,447
Thank you.

914
00:40:09,448 --> 00:40:11,205
- Whoo.
- Work it.

915
00:40:11,206 --> 00:40:12,654
Good job, baby.

916
00:40:12,655 --> 00:40:15,757
- Let the church say "amen."
- Amen.

917
00:40:15,758 --> 00:40:18,895
Up next,
A'keria C. Davenport.

918
00:40:18,896 --> 00:40:21,895
Okay, sister.

919
00:40:23,793 --> 00:40:25,550
- Yes, ma'am.
- There's the body.

920
00:40:25,551 --> 00:40:29,240
A'keria, what words
of wisdom do you have

921
00:40:29,241 --> 00:40:30,826
for your younger self?

922
00:40:30,827 --> 00:40:33,171
Now, listen,
you may feel alone now,

923
00:40:33,172 --> 00:40:37,550
but one day, you will
definitely be seen and loved.

924
00:40:37,551 --> 00:40:39,757
I was a little bitty kid.

925
00:40:39,758 --> 00:40:41,895
Didn't really have
a lot of friends.

926
00:40:41,896 --> 00:40:43,171
So, when I got older,

927
00:40:43,172 --> 00:40:46,067
pageantry became something
that I felt love in.

928
00:40:46,068 --> 00:40:48,378
I used to do pageants
in dollar-store wigs.

929
00:40:48,379 --> 00:40:50,826
I was gluing rhinestones
to my skin.

930
00:40:50,827 --> 00:40:53,826
I was desperate
to win a pageant.

931
00:40:53,827 --> 00:40:57,240
Needless to say,
I was constantly losing.

932
00:40:57,241 --> 00:40:59,412
I got with my gay mom.

933
00:40:59,413 --> 00:41:02,481
Oh, how I love this lady.
We're on the road one time.

934
00:41:02,482 --> 00:41:04,895
I just did registration
for a pageant.

935
00:41:04,896 --> 00:41:07,964
We're laying across the bed at
this little mozi-wozi motel.

936
00:41:07,965 --> 00:41:09,550
And all of a sudden,
she jumps up.

937
00:41:09,551 --> 00:41:12,516
She says, bitch,
I know what you can do.

938
00:41:12,517 --> 00:41:14,412
You should let me pump you.
- Ooh.

939
00:41:14,413 --> 00:41:16,205
So I'm like,
okay, girl, you know,

940
00:41:16,206 --> 00:41:18,550
so I can get that
voluptuous shape.

941
00:41:18,551 --> 00:41:20,309
We get in the car,
we're driving on down.

942
00:41:20,310 --> 00:41:22,378
I'm thinking we're finna go
to a doctor's office.

943
00:41:22,379 --> 00:41:24,102
And then, boom...

944
00:41:24,103 --> 00:41:26,067
we at the feed store.

945
00:41:26,068 --> 00:41:27,861
Wait, bitch.
This for animals.

946
00:41:27,862 --> 00:41:29,723
What are we doing here?

947
00:41:29,724 --> 00:41:32,067
She said, girl,
I got to get some syringes.

948
00:41:32,068 --> 00:41:34,861
So we're walking.
I look.

949
00:41:34,862 --> 00:41:37,550
There's a rabbit needle.
Okay, not too bad.

950
00:41:37,551 --> 00:41:39,585
Okay, we still walking.

951
00:41:39,586 --> 00:41:42,550
We get to the horse needle.
- Ooh-ooh.

952
00:41:42,551 --> 00:41:44,550
Now, I know I want
to be built like a stallion,

953
00:41:44,551 --> 00:41:46,516
but not that bad, baby.

954
00:41:46,517 --> 00:41:49,067
I get back to the hotel room.
I'm excited.

955
00:41:49,068 --> 00:41:50,895
She said, girl,
you got to go get naked.

956
00:41:50,896 --> 00:41:52,619
So I pull my drawers up.

957
00:41:52,620 --> 00:41:54,826
You know how my briefs--
I was still a boy at that time.

958
00:41:54,827 --> 00:41:57,481
Well, I'm still
a boy now, child.

959
00:41:57,482 --> 00:41:59,067
And she said, girl, you got
to lay on your stomach.

960
00:41:59,068 --> 00:42:01,136
So I laid her on my stomach.

961
00:42:01,137 --> 00:42:03,447
And she said,
I'm going to count to three.

962
00:42:03,448 --> 00:42:06,481
She said, one, two...

963
00:42:06,482 --> 00:42:09,412
By three, the bitch was
already inside of me.

964
00:42:09,413 --> 00:42:11,861
Oh, I wanted to jump up,
but I couldn't,

965
00:42:11,862 --> 00:42:14,171
because she had already
did one side.

966
00:42:14,172 --> 00:42:16,412
I laid my ass on down
and got the other one.

967
00:42:16,413 --> 00:42:19,964
Needless to say,
still lost the pageant.

968
00:42:19,965 --> 00:42:22,550
So moral of the story is,

969
00:42:22,551 --> 00:42:25,412
sometimes you do things
that you'll regret.

970
00:42:25,413 --> 00:42:28,895
But every lesson
is a life lesson.

971
00:42:28,896 --> 00:42:30,930
And I don't live
with any regret.

972
00:42:30,931 --> 00:42:34,412
It is what it is,
and I am who I am today--

973
00:42:34,413 --> 00:42:36,861
fine, healthy, and free.

974
00:42:36,862 --> 00:42:39,240
Thank you.
- Hey.

975
00:42:39,241 --> 00:42:40,688
Come on, A'keria.

976
00:42:42,448 --> 00:42:44,964
Up next, Sam Star.

977
00:42:44,965 --> 00:42:46,619
Yes, Samantha.

978
00:42:50,137 --> 00:42:53,240
Sam, is there anything
you'd like to say

979
00:42:53,241 --> 00:42:55,550
to your younger self?

980
00:42:55,551 --> 00:42:57,688
Little baby Samantha,

981
00:42:57,689 --> 00:43:01,171
you're not gonna have
to serve to serve.

982
00:43:01,172 --> 00:43:04,826
If you couldn't tell
from my outfit or my accent,

983
00:43:04,827 --> 00:43:07,757
I am from all the way down
in Alabama.

984
00:43:07,758 --> 00:43:09,999
And we're known
for many things--

985
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,723
denim, fringe...

986
00:43:12,724 --> 00:43:14,826
cousin fucking.

987
00:43:14,827 --> 00:43:18,412
Shout-out to Cousin Billy.
I love you.

988
00:43:18,413 --> 00:43:21,136
But if you know a lot
about the South,

989
00:43:21,137 --> 00:43:24,999
you know that it's like a damn
religion to be into sports.

990
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,757
And as a little kid,
I wanted to blend in,

991
00:43:27,758 --> 00:43:30,585
and I tried my best
to be like the other boys.

992
00:43:30,586 --> 00:43:33,240
So I said,
why not give sports a try?

993
00:43:33,241 --> 00:43:35,723
My dad was very excited.

994
00:43:35,724 --> 00:43:38,723
The first sport that I wanted
to try out was soccer.

995
00:43:38,724 --> 00:43:40,378
Girl, it was a disaster.

996
00:43:40,379 --> 00:43:43,585
The only thing that I liked
about soccer was my cleats,

997
00:43:43,586 --> 00:43:46,792
because it was kind of like
I was wearing high heels, okay?

998
00:43:46,793 --> 00:43:49,103
Soccer is gonna be strike one.

999
00:43:50,689 --> 00:43:53,240
Damn it!

1000
00:43:53,241 --> 00:43:57,067
Next up, I thought,
let me try out baseball.

1001
00:43:57,068 --> 00:44:00,792
Girl, they always made me
play the outfield.

1002
00:44:00,793 --> 00:44:04,102
I didn't mind, though, because
I did like to braid the grass.

1003
00:44:04,103 --> 00:44:06,826
I also didn't mind the view
I got of Rickey,

1004
00:44:06,827 --> 00:44:09,412
who played second base, 'cause
he had a nice tight ass.

1005
00:44:09,413 --> 00:44:11,930
- Uh-huh.
- Shout-out to you, Ricky.

1006
00:44:11,931 --> 00:44:16,240
So that is gonna have to be
our strike two.

1007
00:44:19,586 --> 00:44:23,240
In middle school, I said,
let me try out tennis.

1008
00:44:23,241 --> 00:44:26,585
The shorts were shorter,
and the boys were cuter.

1009
00:44:26,586 --> 00:44:28,550
My crush Blake played with me.

1010
00:44:28,551 --> 00:44:30,654
But when I found out
he only cared

1011
00:44:30,655 --> 00:44:32,895
about hitting the balls
and not on me,

1012
00:44:32,896 --> 00:44:34,516
I lost interest quickly.

1013
00:44:34,517 --> 00:44:37,136
That's gonna be
our strike three.

1014
00:44:40,241 --> 00:44:41,930
Now, little baby Samantha,

1015
00:44:41,931 --> 00:44:44,171
they're gonna say
that you are not athletic.

1016
00:44:44,172 --> 00:44:45,481
But don't worry, bitch.

1017
00:44:45,482 --> 00:44:48,171
Just wait till you find a wig
and a pair of heels,

1018
00:44:48,172 --> 00:44:49,723
and you're gonna realize

1019
00:44:49,724 --> 00:44:51,723
you're not gonna have
to be great at sports

1020
00:44:51,724 --> 00:44:56,343
to one day become an All Star!

1021
00:44:56,344 --> 00:44:57,964
Thank you!

1022
00:44:57,965 --> 00:45:00,447
Samantha.

1023
00:45:00,448 --> 00:45:01,861
Yee-haw.

1024
00:45:01,862 --> 00:45:04,826
Welcome to the stage
Crystal Methyd.

1025
00:45:04,827 --> 00:45:07,861
- Come on, Crystal.
- All right, Crystal.

1026
00:45:07,862 --> 00:45:09,447
Whoo-whoo.

1027
00:45:09,448 --> 00:45:13,274
Crystal, words of wisdom
for your younger self?

1028
00:45:13,275 --> 00:45:15,930
Ahoy, little sailor.

1029
00:45:15,931 --> 00:45:19,585
Let me tell you,
life ain't all calm waters.

1030
00:45:19,586 --> 00:45:22,412
It's a voyage full of mutiny,

1031
00:45:22,413 --> 00:45:24,826
strange ports, and sea beasts.

1032
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,792
It's 1997.
I'm only six years old.

1033
00:45:29,793 --> 00:45:33,930
And my family's just set sail
from sunny California

1034
00:45:33,931 --> 00:45:37,274
and dropped anchor
in Ozark, Missouri.

1035
00:45:37,275 --> 00:45:39,757
I was super anxious
about starting school.

1036
00:45:39,758 --> 00:45:42,102
My mom introduced me
to our neighbor Danny,

1037
00:45:42,103 --> 00:45:45,378
who was a fifth grader
with brown hair and freckles--

1038
00:45:45,379 --> 00:45:48,343
totally my type at the time.

1039
00:45:48,344 --> 00:45:50,274
And the rules were simple.

1040
00:45:50,275 --> 00:45:52,585
When Danny gets on the bus,
you get on.

1041
00:45:52,586 --> 00:45:55,205
And when Danny gets off,
you get off.

1042
00:45:55,206 --> 00:45:59,309
Well, on this particular day,
Danny didn't get on the bus.

1043
00:45:59,310 --> 00:46:01,309
He was probably doing
something sporty,

1044
00:46:01,310 --> 00:46:03,654
like football or wrestling.

1045
00:46:03,655 --> 00:46:06,136
And as I fantasized
about all the cute costumes

1046
00:46:06,137 --> 00:46:07,895
Danny might be wearing,

1047
00:46:07,896 --> 00:46:11,447
Bob, the bus driver,
started on our route home.

1048
00:46:11,448 --> 00:46:13,343
I played with my little
friendship bracelet

1049
00:46:13,344 --> 00:46:16,136
that I'd given myself
as I stared out the window,

1050
00:46:16,137 --> 00:46:19,585
when, suddenly,
my house sailed by.

1051
00:46:19,586 --> 00:46:23,654
The only safe harbor that
I knew, gone in an instant.

1052
00:46:23,655 --> 00:46:25,585
So there I am,

1053
00:46:25,586 --> 00:46:29,171
a city girl from California
in misery,

1054
00:46:29,172 --> 00:46:31,102
going to who-knows-where.

1055
00:46:31,103 --> 00:46:34,171
Should I say something to Bob?
What would I even say?

1056
00:46:34,172 --> 00:46:35,516
I'm only six.

1057
00:46:35,517 --> 00:46:38,240
Who am I to criticize this man
on how to do his job?

1058
00:46:38,241 --> 00:46:40,585
So I clung to my backpack,

1059
00:46:40,586 --> 00:46:43,067
and I watched
as every single child

1060
00:46:43,068 --> 00:46:45,067
got dropped off home safe.

1061
00:46:45,068 --> 00:46:47,964
And I rode until the bus
went back to the bus depot.

1062
00:46:47,965 --> 00:46:49,550
Oh.

1063
00:46:49,551 --> 00:46:51,723
I thought, well,
this is where I'm gonna live

1064
00:46:51,724 --> 00:46:54,102
the rest of my life.

1065
00:46:54,103 --> 00:46:56,999
I started going through
my backpack for rations.

1066
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,067
Score!
A granola bar.

1067
00:46:59,068 --> 00:47:01,309
We're eating good tonight.

1068
00:47:01,310 --> 00:47:04,309
As I laid out all my supplies
on the seat,

1069
00:47:04,310 --> 00:47:07,654
I was totally unaware
of Bob doing final rounds,

1070
00:47:07,655 --> 00:47:09,619
when he looked down at me.

1071
00:47:09,620 --> 00:47:11,343
Well, shit, he said.

1072
00:47:11,344 --> 00:47:15,585
So Bob, my personal chauffeur,
drove me home.

1073
00:47:15,586 --> 00:47:20,033
Needless to say, my mom never
let me ride the bus again.

1074
00:47:20,034 --> 00:47:22,723
Now, little Cody, in life,

1075
00:47:22,724 --> 00:47:25,205
you are going to go
through difficult situations

1076
00:47:25,206 --> 00:47:26,550

00:47:26,551 --> 00:47:28,067

But instead
of hiding the evidence,

1182
00:52:05,620 --> 00:52:07,792
I told the cops that I got
the weed from my mom,

One thing I would say
about the story is,

1185
00:52:10,620 --> 00:52:12,757
I wanted to see
a little bit more embellishing

00:52:43,620 --> 00:52:44,723
This look--

1202
00:52:44,724 --> 00:52:46,930
ooh, come on,
"Ebony" Fashion Fair.

1203
00:52:46,931 --> 00:52:49,378
Sexual chocolate.

1204
00:52:49,379 --> 00:52:50,723
Gorgeous.

1205
00:52:50,724 --> 00:52:53,171
Now, you better preach,
Pastor,

1206
00:52:53,172 --> 00:52:56,930
because I was so engrossed
in your storytelling.

1207
00:52:56,931 --> 00:52:59,067
Y'all may know her
as the choir director,

1208
00:52:59,068 --> 00:53:01,136
but I knew her as my mama.

1209
00:53:01,137 --> 00:53:05,102
I was very impressed
with how you held back,

1210
00:53:05,103 --> 00:53:08,343
'cause I know, bitch,
you can go on and on and on.

1211
00:53:08,344 --> 00:53:10,999
Up next, Crystal Methyd.

1212
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,033
This look tonight--this is
crazy and it shouldn't work.

1213
00:53:14,034 --> 00:53:16,792
But it's
so beautifully crafted.

1214
00:53:16,793 --> 00:53:18,309
It's just fantastic.

1215
00:53:18,310 --> 00:53:21,688
Yeah, in your story, that
Napoleon look was dynamite.

1216
00:53:21,689 --> 00:53:23,309
It was so fun.

1217
00:53:23,310 --> 00:53:27,033
The wordplay, the misery,
Missouri--so clever.

1218
00:53:27,034 --> 00:53:30,723
A city girl from California
in misery.

1219
00:53:30,724 --> 00:53:33,550
This was so tight and
polished and professional.

1220
00:53:33,551 --> 00:53:36,378
It was so heartfelt and funny
at the same time.

1221
00:53:36,379 --> 00:53:37,895
It was that perfect mixture

1222
00:53:37,896 --> 00:53:42,447
of melancholy
and ridiculousness

1223
00:53:42,448 --> 00:53:44,033
that is Crystal Methyd.

1224
00:53:44,034 --> 00:53:47,205
What did you leave
out of the story?

1225
00:53:47,206 --> 00:53:50,481
That I had started
killing rats for food.

1226
00:53:54,551 --> 00:53:57,067
- Glad you left that out.
- Yeah.

1227
00:53:57,068 --> 00:53:59,481
Up next, Kennedy Davenport.

1228
00:53:59,482 --> 00:54:01,999
Ooh, Kennedy,
there was so much whupping

1229
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,033
going on in that story,
but the characters were funny.

1230
00:54:05,034 --> 00:54:06,999
I don't know necessarily
what the big takeaway

1231
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:08,274
of the story was,

1232
00:54:08,275 --> 00:54:10,861
but I was scared for my life

1233
00:54:10,862 --> 00:54:12,516
<i>when you came out
as your mother.</i>

1234
00:54:12,517 --> 00:54:16,067
And the commitment
to that switch was awesome.

1235
00:54:16,068 --> 00:54:18,343
You certainly know
how to dress for a red carpet.

1236
00:54:18,344 --> 00:54:20,895
Here, in this outfit,
it's all there--

1237
00:54:20,896 --> 00:54:22,343
beginning, middle, and end.

1238
00:54:22,344 --> 00:54:24,792
And that's what was missing
from your story.

1239
00:54:24,793 --> 00:54:27,378
It wasn't concise enough.

1240
00:54:27,379 --> 00:54:29,723
I would love
for it to have been

1241
00:54:29,724 --> 00:54:32,412
about one very specific time

1242
00:54:32,413 --> 00:54:34,895
that was easier to follow,
you know?

1243
00:54:34,896 --> 00:54:36,067
Yes, ma'am.

1244
00:54:36,068 --> 00:54:39,654
Up next,
A'keria C. Davenport.

1245
00:54:39,655 --> 00:54:41,826
This look tonight is art.

1246
00:54:41,827 --> 00:54:43,205
Who did it?
- I did.

1247
00:54:43,206 --> 00:54:46,895
A'keria,
from every bugle bead

1248
00:54:46,896 --> 00:54:49,895
to every scale,
it's so beautiful.

1249
00:54:49,896 --> 00:54:52,136
It reminds me
of a Mugler dress.

1250
00:54:52,137 --> 00:54:55,826
- Alien.
- Yes, it is extraordinary.

1251
00:54:55,827 --> 00:54:57,343
Thank you.

1252
00:54:57,344 --> 00:55:00,171
I really enjoyed your story.
It was such a unique story.

1253
00:55:00,172 --> 00:55:02,619
I was like, the feed store and
all the different needle sizes.

1254
00:55:02,620 --> 00:55:05,171
There's a rabbit needle.
Okay, not too bad.

1255
00:55:05,172 --> 00:55:08,447
I thought that was just
so interesting.

1256
00:55:08,448 --> 00:55:10,895
<i>But I think
that behind the changing area</i>

1257
00:55:10,896 --> 00:55:12,171
<i>wasn't needed.</i>

1258
00:55:12,172 --> 00:55:13,861
That kind of takes us
out of the moment.

1259
00:55:13,862 --> 00:55:15,792
We're like, where's she going?
What's she doing?

1260
00:55:15,793 --> 00:55:17,378
And that can get you
in trouble.

1261
00:55:17,379 --> 00:55:18,895
You know, it takes
a lot of bravery

1262
00:55:18,896 --> 00:55:20,516
to tell that story
and to be that honest.

1263
00:55:20,517 --> 00:55:21,930
It's really fascinating.

1264
00:55:21,931 --> 00:55:25,550
I think it's a six-part
HBO series, honestly.

1265
00:55:25,551 --> 00:55:28,240
Up next, Joey Jay.

1266
00:55:28,241 --> 00:55:29,619
So your storytelling--

1267
00:55:29,620 --> 00:55:32,757
that gag with
the sound-effect machine...

1268
00:55:32,758 --> 00:55:34,861
<i>we were all hysterical
because of it.</i>

1269
00:55:34,862 --> 00:55:37,343
Your writing is top-notch.
- Thank you.

1270
00:55:37,344 --> 00:55:39,895
And I just think maybe
getting away from the cards

1271
00:55:39,896 --> 00:55:41,757
would have helped a little bit.

1272
00:55:41,758 --> 00:55:43,412
I think having the cue cards

1273
00:55:43,413 --> 00:55:46,309
along with the sound board
was brilliant.

1274
00:55:46,310 --> 00:55:50,481
I loved the idea of, like, the,
like, real coordinated, okay...

1275
00:55:50,482 --> 00:55:53,274
- Yeah, play to your strengths.
- Perfect.

1276
00:55:53,275 --> 00:55:54,688
Keep it stupid, girl.

1277
00:55:54,689 --> 00:55:56,688
I think this look tonight
is gorgeous.

1278
00:55:56,689 --> 00:55:59,378
For me, I would have liked
a black shoe,

1279
00:55:59,379 --> 00:56:01,895
only so it brings out
the chiffon.

1280
00:56:01,896 --> 00:56:04,447
But it's just
really pretty, Joey.

1281
00:56:04,448 --> 00:56:07,274
You know, Joey Jay,
"All Stars" is designed

1282
00:56:07,275 --> 00:56:10,481
to lift up some of the girls
who didn't get to shine before,

1283
00:56:10,482 --> 00:56:12,826
and you are
the perfect example of that,

1284
00:56:12,827 --> 00:56:14,999
and we are all here for it.

1285
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,585
Up next, Sam Star.

1286
00:56:17,586 --> 00:56:19,688
First and foremost, you...

1287
00:56:19,689 --> 00:56:22,550
had me at "cousin fucking."

1288
00:56:22,551 --> 00:56:24,930
I was in.
- Your story was fine.

1289
00:56:24,931 --> 00:56:27,481
I was just craving
a little bit more detail.

1290
00:56:27,482 --> 00:56:29,205
<i>How did football go?
How did soccer go?</i>

1291
00:56:29,206 --> 00:56:31,171
Just make it
more authentic to you.

1292
00:56:31,172 --> 00:56:33,826
I think tonight this is
so fun, this is so quirky--

1293
00:56:33,827 --> 00:56:36,240
the heels that you have
on this dress.

1294
00:56:36,241 --> 00:56:38,964
I think for me,
the length is bothering me.

1295
00:56:38,965 --> 00:56:41,033
I feel like it should be
to the ground

1296
00:56:41,034 --> 00:56:43,309
<i>or a little bit shorter.</i>

1297
00:56:43,310 --> 00:56:45,102
But this color
looks gorgeous on you.

1298
00:56:45,103 --> 00:56:47,861
- Thank you.
- Jasmine Kennedie.

1299
00:56:47,862 --> 00:56:50,930
Your story ended up
being really heartfelt.

1300
00:56:50,931 --> 00:56:53,240
I actually really loved
your performance.

1301
00:56:53,241 --> 00:56:54,861
It felt very theatrical.

1302
00:56:54,862 --> 00:56:56,102
<i>There's a moment</i>

1303
00:56:56,103 --> 00:56:57,895
<i>where you sat down
and answered the phone,</i>

1304
00:56:57,896 --> 00:56:59,550
<i>and it felt
very film noir to me.</i>

1305
00:56:59,551 --> 00:57:00,688
Hello?

1306
00:57:00,689 --> 00:57:03,205
Dial T for trans.

1307
00:57:03,206 --> 00:57:04,447
Yes.

1308
00:57:04,448 --> 00:57:07,688
I charge big bucks
every minute, okay?

1309
00:57:07,689 --> 00:57:10,930
You look like one
of Truman Capote's swans

1310
00:57:10,931 --> 00:57:14,067
who all the other wives hate.

1311
00:57:14,068 --> 00:57:16,378
- They do.
- Hate to love.

1312
00:57:16,379 --> 00:57:18,378
And I loved your story, too.
It was really good.

1313
00:57:18,379 --> 00:57:19,861
Thank you so much.

1314
00:57:19,862 --> 00:57:22,240
Thank you, All Stars.
I think we've heard enough.

1315
00:57:22,241 --> 00:57:23,516
Based on your

1316
00:57:23,517 --> 00:57:26,205
Tell Me Something Good
performances

1317
00:57:26,206 --> 00:57:30,240
and your Red Carpet Realness
runway presentations,

1318
00:57:30,241 --> 00:57:32,240
I've made some decisions.

1319
00:57:35,344 --> 00:57:39,033
Tonight you all captured
our imaginations.

1320
00:57:39,034 --> 00:57:42,826
But the greatest story
ever told was by...

1321
00:57:45,379 --> 00:57:46,895
Crystal Methyd.

1322
00:57:46,896 --> 00:57:48,241
Ah!

1323
00:57:49,827 --> 00:57:51,826
Condragulations.

1324
00:57:51,827 --> 00:57:53,826
You're the top All Star
of the week.

1325
00:57:53,827 --> 00:57:55,067
Thank you so much.

1326
00:57:55,068 --> 00:57:57,757
You've won a cash tip
of $10,000,

1327
00:57:57,758 --> 00:58:00,550
courtesy of Clutch Glue,

1328
00:58:00,551 --> 00:58:02,930
<i>the original fashion glue.</i>

1329
00:58:02,931 --> 00:58:04,274
Love it.

1330
00:58:04,275 --> 00:58:07,343
For the rest of you,
it's time to Rate-A-Queen,

1331
00:58:07,344 --> 00:58:09,654
MVQ edition.

1332
00:58:09,655 --> 00:58:13,343
You'll rank your competitors
from top to bottom.

1333
00:58:13,344 --> 00:58:15,136
And the bottom two

1334
00:58:15,137 --> 00:58:18,412
will lip-sync for their lives.

1335
00:58:18,413 --> 00:58:21,585
So, while you Rate-A-Queen,

1336
00:58:21,586 --> 00:58:25,861
the judges and I will play
dirty charades.

1337
00:58:25,862 --> 00:58:29,067
You may leave the stage.
- Bye.

1338
00:58:34,068 --> 00:58:38,378
It's time for Rate-A-Queen,
and I am terrified, girl.

1339
00:58:38,379 --> 00:58:41,412
<i>We have to rank the queens
from top to bottom</i>

1340
00:58:41,413 --> 00:58:43,033
<i>and that is going to decide</i>

1341
00:58:43,034 --> 00:58:44,688
who is going gonna be
lip-syncing this week.

1342
00:58:44,689 --> 00:58:47,757
I'm so sorry to my sisters
in advance.

1343
00:58:47,758 --> 00:58:49,999
Never thought
I'd see this shit again.

1344
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:53,240
There's a small part of me that
just wants to be really messy.

1345
00:58:53,241 --> 00:58:57,654
Based on the critiques,
I could be at risk here.

1346
00:58:57,655 --> 00:58:59,757
Yeah, I'm going
full strategy here.

1347
00:58:59,758 --> 00:59:01,688
Okay.

1348
00:59:01,689 --> 00:59:04,309
I'm nervous that the girls
might put me in the bottom

1349
00:59:04,310 --> 00:59:05,792
because I'm the wild card.

1350
00:59:05,793 --> 00:59:08,654
<i>And that could
make me an outsider.</i>

1351
00:59:08,655 --> 00:59:11,412
So let's play the game.

1352
00:59:11,413 --> 00:59:15,274
My number-one MVQ goes
to Kennedy Davenport,

1353
00:59:15,275 --> 00:59:17,240
because I know my ass
isn't gonna lip-sync

1354
00:59:17,241 --> 00:59:20,102
against her tonight if
the girls are gonna be shady.

1355
00:59:20,103 --> 00:59:24,378
My number one, Joey Jay.
Her set was very funny.

1356
00:59:24,379 --> 00:59:26,550
- My number-one MVQ...
- My number-one MVQ...

1357
00:59:26,551 --> 00:59:28,826
Is going to Sam Star.

1358
00:59:28,827 --> 00:59:30,550
<i>Her efforts were shown
all night,</i>

1359
00:59:30,551 --> 00:59:32,964
even though the judges
may not have agreed.

1360
00:59:32,965 --> 00:59:36,067
My number-two MVQ,
Jasmine Kennedie.

1361
00:59:36,068 --> 00:59:38,102
I love how she told her story.

1362
00:59:38,103 --> 00:59:40,585
- My number-two...
- MVQ...

1363
00:59:40,586 --> 00:59:43,585
Joey Jay, 'cause I thought
Joey Jay was gonna win.

1364
00:59:43,586 --> 00:59:47,136
My number-three MVQ,
Sam Star.

1365
00:59:47,137 --> 00:59:49,654
<i>Even though the length
of the dress was god-awful,</i>

1366
00:59:49,655 --> 00:59:50,930
I still think
she looked beautiful.

1367
00:59:50,931 --> 00:59:54,964
My number-three MVQ, A'keria.

1368
00:59:54,965 --> 00:59:58,757
My number-four MVQ,
based on critiques,

1369
00:59:58,758 --> 01:00:00,240
Silky.

1370
01:00:00,241 --> 01:00:04,102
My number-five MVQ,
I'm gonna say Kennedy.

1371
01:00:04,103 --> 01:00:06,240
The one person I would look
out for would be Kennedy.

1372
01:00:06,241 --> 01:00:09,343
But because of her critiques
on the runway,

1373
01:00:09,344 --> 01:00:12,723
I really can't do anything
too obvious with saving her.

1374
01:00:12,724 --> 01:00:14,136
That'll put a target
on my back.

1375
01:00:14,137 --> 01:00:16,930
My number-five MVQ, A'keria.

1376
01:00:16,931 --> 01:00:19,309
She's the one that I'm trying
to edge out of the bottom.

1377
01:00:19,310 --> 01:00:20,757
Even though
I love her to death,

1378
01:00:20,758 --> 01:00:23,067
my number-six MVQ
is gonna be Kennedy.

1379
01:00:23,068 --> 01:00:25,757
This might be
our only opportunity

1380
01:00:25,758 --> 01:00:27,240
to have her in the bottom.

1381
01:00:27,241 --> 01:00:28,688
She's a fierce competitor.

1382
01:00:28,689 --> 01:00:31,412
My number-six MVQ
will go to Dawn.

1383
01:00:31,413 --> 01:00:32,964
I was just underwhelmed.

1384
01:00:32,965 --> 01:00:35,412
My number-six MVQ, Dawn.

1385
01:00:35,413 --> 01:00:38,240
My number-six MVQ,
A'keria,

1386
01:00:38,241 --> 01:00:41,343
<i>because mama had a runaway
out this world.</i>

1387
01:00:41,344 --> 01:00:42,585
But at the same time,

1388
01:00:42,586 --> 01:00:44,378
<i>I didn't laugh one time
during her story.</i>

1389
01:00:44,379 --> 01:00:46,723
And that's the tea.

1390
01:00:46,724 --> 01:00:49,343
That is the tea.

1391
01:00:49,344 --> 01:00:50,964
- And that's...
- The tea.

1392
01:00:50,965 --> 01:00:53,999
- It's the motherfucking tea.
- Wish me luck.

1393
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:55,343
And that's the tea.

1394
01:00:55,344 --> 01:00:56,689
Shut up.

1395
01:00:59,275 --> 01:01:01,481
Welcome back, All Stars.

1396
01:01:01,482 --> 01:01:04,964
Your fellow queens
have made some decisions.

1397
01:01:08,689 --> 01:01:10,964
Based on
the Rate-A-Queen results,

1398
01:01:10,965 --> 01:01:14,205
the bottom-two All Stars
of the week are...

1399
01:01:19,344 --> 01:01:22,481
Kennedy Davenport...

1400
01:01:22,482 --> 01:01:25,378
and A'keria C. Davenport.

1401
01:01:25,379 --> 01:01:30,240
I'm sorry, my dears, but you
are both up for elimination.

1402
01:01:30,241 --> 01:01:33,516
The rest of you may step
to the back of the stage.

1403
01:01:33,517 --> 01:01:36,412
all:
Thank you.

1404
01:01:36,413 --> 01:01:37,895
I love y'all.

1405
01:01:41,034 --> 01:01:43,378
- I love you.
- I love you, too, bitch.

1406
01:01:45,724 --> 01:01:49,343
Two All Stars
stand before me.

1407
01:01:49,344 --> 01:01:53,654
Ladies, this is your
last chance to impress me

1408
01:01:53,655 --> 01:01:57,482
and save yourself
from elimination.

1409
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,136
The time has come...

1410
01:02:01,137 --> 01:02:03,792
For you to lip-sync

1411
01:02:03,793 --> 01:02:07,274
for... your... life!

1412
01:02:09,103 --> 01:02:12,205
<i>I hate that I have
to lip-sync against my niece</i>

1413
01:02:12,206 --> 01:02:15,447
because it's not gonna be easy
sending her home.

1414
01:02:15,448 --> 01:02:18,550
<i>But the lip sync is mine.</i>

1415
01:02:18,551 --> 01:02:21,240
<i>As Davenports,
we both have an understanding</i>

1416
01:02:21,241 --> 01:02:22,757
<i>of what it is to compete,</i>

1417
01:02:22,758 --> 01:02:24,723
so I'm gonna have
to come twice as hard

1418
01:02:24,724 --> 01:02:26,723
<i>because I know
what she's capable of.</i>

1419
01:02:26,724 --> 01:02:29,136
Ms. Kennedy, I'm going
to throw the kitchen sink

1420
01:02:29,137 --> 01:02:30,343
at your ass tonight.

1421
01:02:30,344 --> 01:02:32,447
Good luck...

1422
01:02:32,448 --> 01:02:35,516

Y'all better start
the semifinals, bitch!

1461
01:05:01,896 --> 01:05:04,550
Now that is a lip sync

1462
01:05:04,551 --> 01:05:07,481
for the herstory books.

1463
01:05:07,482 --> 01:05:10,826
All Stars,
I've made my decision.

1464
01:05:18,655 --> 01:05:21,895
A'keria C. Davenport,
shantay, you stay.

1465
01:05:21,896 --> 01:05:23,723
-  Thank you.
- Wow.

1466
01:05:29,965 --> 01:05:32,757
A'keria, you may join
the other girls.

1467
01:05:39,448 --> 01:05:40,861
- Good job.
- Thank you.

1468
01:05:40,862 --> 01:05:42,895
Kennedy Davenport,

1469
01:05:42,896 --> 01:05:45,930
you are and will always be

1470
01:05:45,931 --> 01:05:49,033
a legendary queen.

1471
01:05:49,034 --> 01:05:50,585
Now...

1472
01:05:50,586 --> 01:05:53,447
sashay away.

1473
01:05:53,448 --> 01:05:54,516
Thank you.

1474
01:05:56,758 --> 01:05:58,481
- Kennedy.
- I love you, Kennedy.

1475
01:05:58,482 --> 01:06:01,654
We love you, sis.
I'm sorry.

1476
01:06:01,655 --> 01:06:06,343
Well, damn it. I missed it.

1477
01:06:06,344 --> 01:06:08,481
- I'm gonna miss you.
- You too.

1478
01:06:08,482 --> 01:06:11,067
I feel like I did very good
in this tournament,

1479
01:06:11,068 --> 01:06:15,033
<i>and I was a real contender
and a threat.</i>

1480
01:06:15,034 --> 01:06:17,240
But the book is not done.

1481
01:06:17,241 --> 01:06:21,309
It's not finished.
It's just another chapter.

1482
01:06:21,310 --> 01:06:25,516
It's always the girls.

1483
01:06:25,517 --> 01:06:27,619
Condragulations, All Stars.

1484
01:06:27,620 --> 01:06:30,102
And, remember,
if you can't love yourself,

1485
01:06:30,103 --> 01:06:32,378
how in the hell
you gonna love somebody else?

1486
01:06:32,379 --> 01:06:34,274
Can I get an "amen" up in here?

1487
01:06:34,275 --> 01:06:35,378
all:
Amen.

1488
01:06:35,379 --> 01:06:37,481
All right,
