" Hello, hello, hello." " Whoo!" " Critics have called "Drag Race" the best show on TV." " Yay!" " When I'm good, I'm good, but when I'm bad, I get a serous venereal disease." " And this season, the All Stars kept us gagging." "You'll be eliminating... each other." " I fucked up this week, man." "I fucked up." " Party." " I'm not holding shit back." "Oh, at all." " And gagging." " If you thought it was personal, absolutely not." " Can I be completely honest?" "I am sick of hearing them say you can wear shit on stage, but it's okay 'cause you're Alyssa." " What?" "Oh, my God!" " Oh, my fucking God." " What is going on here?" " Oh." " And gagging for more." " Aah!" " What the hell?" " Tonight, the queens have reunited to pop off." " If you want to say that I'm fake, I have this to say." " And spill the T." " You think you're clever, don't you, bitch?" " Adore Delano." " I believe in free love." " You do?" " I do." " Alyssa Edwards." " Don't say I get a free pass because I'm funny." " Coco Montresse." " It didn't sound like there was any humility there." "It was like, I got that bitch." " Detox." " It's a pass, though." "It's judged a little differently." " Ginger Minj." " You do play a dirty game." " Katya." " No, the second part was amazing." "The first part was utter bullshit." " Roxxxy Andrews." " You're going to regret this." "Don't do this." " Tatianna." " Oh, she pretty." "We've seen what she's got." " And she's a winner, baby." "Alaska." " I did it." "I would do it again." " ¶ RuPaul's Drag Race ¶" "¶ Start your engines ¶" "¶ RuPaul's Drag Race ¶" "¶ May the best woman ¶" "¶ Best woman win ¶" " Welcome to a good old fashioned reunion, celebrating the queens of "RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 2."" "Welcome, ladies." " Hello." " Yo." " And congratulations, Alaska." "(applause)" "Oh, and in case any of you are questioning my qualifications towards tonight's reunion, I have one thing to say." "Talk to her." "(cheers and applause)" "Now, it's fun to snatch trophies, but the proudest achievement of my career has been to provide a platform that has launched the careers of 100 queens to international stardom." "Now, what you decide to do with that platform is up to you." "And tonight, one queen decided not to join us." "Or as Tatianna would say, choices." " (laughs)" " One thing before we start." "If at any point tonight you think one of your fellow queens is not telling the T, feel free to raise the paddle provided and call bullshit." " (laughs)" " For example, if one of you were to say," ""I blame the edit," I'd say, bullshit." " (laughs)" " See how it works?" "Good." "So first, let's start with the All Star twist that changed everything." "This season, you'll be eliminating..." "Each other." " Okay." "Welcome to "All Stars."" " Now, when I revealed that you'd be eliminating each other, what did you think?" " Fuck - (laughs)" "That's my first thought was like, fuck." "But you know, I think that because it was "All Stars"" "and because we're the best of the best, we should have expected there was some kind of twist." " It was like a mustard gas bomb went off." " I've heard of those." " When it happened, yeah." "I've had mustard gas before." " Oh, really?" "On a hot dog?" " Yeah, totally." " (laughs)" "Now how did you guys come up with this idea to base your eliminations on what the judges said?" " That was my way of making sense of it." "We were sitting there and we were all like, this is terrible." "I don't want to do it." "And I was like, well, we have to do it." "We have to do something." " Right." " So I wanted to do it as though I was sitting in your position when you have to send people home." " Right." " Did we all agree to it?" " No." " No." " I would not have agreed to that." "That is setting yourselves up for a fucking bitch fight, low key." "Like just watching." " Which we did." "Because we're stupid." "(laughs)" " Watching the show, it felt like you guys were trying to defer the blame" " Back to the judges." " Back to the judges, and not take responsibility for the decisions you made." "Is that a fair statement?" " Of course." "Yes." " You throw me the potato," "I'm throwing it back at you, bitch." " And I think, in retrospect, yes, it does come across that way." "But in that moment, it seemed that first day, like, well, this is fair." " Right, as the competition progresses, friendships and all that shit comes into play, and it's tough." " Well, exactly." " It's a mother fucker." " Because Alyssa was accused of breaking the pact." "Did you ever make the pact?" " Baby, nothing was notarized, no contracts were signed, my attorney was not present." "That was hog wash." "Let me get this gig." "Hold on." "(all laugh)" " Now, the first queen to get the chop from a fellow All Star was the legendary Ms. Coco Montresse." "So, Coco, what was your proudest moment on the show?" " My proudest moment was being there." "I didn't want to come" "Before I got the call from you to come back to the "All Stars,"" "I had just gotten out of the hospital." "I was-- my lungs were failing, and I fought my way back to being able to live." " Oh, my goodness." " And I didn't want anybody to know that." "I didn't want to get any sympathy from anybody." "I wanted to come back and prove who I was." "And... (sobs)" "I just don't want to let the people down who believe in me." " Well, you haven't let your fans down." "You haven't let yourself down." "How are you doing now?" " Much better, much better." "I'm probably about 98%." "I was traveling so much, I wasn't eating, and I'm thinking, oh, I'm invincible." "I've never gotten sick or anything like that." "You've just got to take care of yourself." " Yeah, you need to all take care of yourselves." " Yeah, you have to." " Now, this is a question from our "Drag Race" super fans." "Do you think that your elimination was fair?" " The girl that I chose was Coco." " And who do you think should have gone home?" " No, I don't." "I don't think my elimination was fair." "This is "All Stars," and, no, I wasn't my best." "I can be honest and say that." "It wasn't my best." "But there was one person in that bottom three that's not here, that didn't sing that great that day, but that wasn't taken into consideration." " Mm-hmm." " And that hurt me more than anything in the world." " I know that if I was in the top," "I would not have sent you home that first challenge." "And if you roll back the tapes, you can see who I would have sent home." " Yeah." " 'Cause I don't think she did the worst." "And I would say that if Phi Phi was here, and she's not here, but, yeah, I don't think she did the worst." " I remember you saying that." " Now, after you left, you tweeted that some people sell out their family and friends for fame and a little fortune." "Do you still feel that way about Roxxxy?" " Yes, to a certain extent, I do." " Everybody has their right to their own opinion to me, and whatever they feel." "As far as the tweets go, we all get mad, and we say things that we don't want to say." "There is a line, and I've crossed that line before." "I think a lot of people have crossed that line before, and when you put something out there, sometimes you want to say, shit," "I should have thought about this twice before I did it." " And sometimes, maybe we shouldn't say those things on social media." "Maybe we should pick up the phone and talk to each other." " So Roxxxy, are you cool with Coco?" " I will always be cool with Coco." "Girl, she could say the nastiest thing to me, and the next day I'll be like, girl, you still my sister," "I love you, ain't nothing ever going to change." " I still love you more than anything in the world." "You will never lose a friend in me." " All right, so we'll be right back." "Coming up...." " What are you feeling right now?" " Embarrassed." " You said that I played a dirty game." " You do play a dirty game." " Yep." "(RuPaul laughs)" " Now, the Snatch Game episode featured one of the most shocking moments in "Drag Race" her-story." "Why are your eyes all red?" " Um..." "I didn't--I just didn't expect it to be like this, I think." "I'm thinking of going home." " Of tapping out?" " I think so." "I'm sorry." " What are you feeling right now?" " Embarrassed." "I just shouldn't--I just felt like I shouldn't have done that." "I didn't want to let anybody down." "Nobody goes on "All Stars 2" and is, like, peacing out." "Like, that's like, whack." "It's not even my style." "Like, I walk and I see how beautiful and statuesque, like, Detox and Roxxxy looked, and I was just like fuck." "My outfits that I got made for me, like, don't even stand up to this, man." "And I didn't prepare myself to bring myself back to the whole elimination process, the critiquing process, the goddamn runway." "And, like, I wasn't mentally prepared to hear that from Michelle, either." " Girl, this is a 14th Street dress, like, that doesn't fit you." "I don't care if you're going to give me your hot body line or whatever it is." "It's just I expected more for you." "Do you care?" "'Cause, like, everything's like blasé." " We just got off tour together around the world, so the aerodynamics are completely changed, and you have to be brought back to like, not Kiki home girl, like, you know, roadie, homey," "back to like, you know, you're Michelle Visage, so you're going to tell me what the fuck you think." "You know, before, I could just be like, girl, bye." "I'm going to my dressing room or whatever." "But here, I have to sit there and fucking take it, and I wasn't prepared for that." "I don't even think I'm still prepared for that." " I just got to say, as an All Star, you can't really wear something off the rack." "You have to wear something that's special that other people can't get." "That's really what the meaning of being a superstar is, you know?" " Yeah." " And if it is off the rack, it has to be altered in a way that no one else can do it." " Got it." " And you know, having seen your, sort of, melt down," "I could totally relate." "In January, I'll be doing this for 35 years." " Jesus Christ." " And what happens is you have to build up that dialogue with yourself to sit yourself down, center yourself." "Everything is cool." "You're here because you earned it." "Don't get it twisted." "You are the cream of the crop." "You are all All Stars." "So one last question." "Adore, "All Stars 3," are you in?" " (laughs)" "(evil laugh)" "I have no idea." "(all laugh)" "I'm probably down." "I'm probably down." " (laughs)" "Now, the next shocking moment was after the Snatch Game when Tatianna got the chop." " The queen that I have chosen..." "Is Tatianna." " So, Tatianna, do you feel Alaska based her decision to send you home on the critiques?" " Which time?" "(all laugh)" " Oh, damn!" " The first time, I think so, yeah." "I did poorly in the Snatch Game, and I wasn't the best on the runway." "The second time, no." "I didn't really get that negative of a critique," "I didn't feel like." "Choices." "And I think that my runway was one of the most entertaining, and like, best." " Now, Alaska, tell me what was going through your mind when you had to eliminate a girl." " Well, it was really hard." " Were you thinking about the audience looking at you or were you thinking about your friendship with the girl?" " If I was thinking about the audience's reaction and if I knew what that was, then I would have probably made different choices." " #Choices (laughs)" " But I had no idea." "How could I know?" "I had no idea the way people would be so galvanized behind Tatianna, and I'm so happy that they have." "And if you want to say that I'm fake, if you want to say that I'm a snake, I have this to say." "The only thing fake about me is this." " Yes!" " (laughs)" " Oh, little Debbie Scooter snack." " Scooter, bitch." " Medic!" "(all laugh)" " She is the queen." " All right." "(laughs)" "So, Ginger, in coming to "All Stars,"" "did you accomplish your mission?" " Well, no, because I didn't win." "But I didn't feel like myself." "I didn't feel like I could find my groove." "I didn't feel like I knew where to jump back in, because I felt like I was still doing it from Season 7." "And I also felt like we were at maybe an advantage, but mostly a disadvantage" " Disadvantage, girl." " Because we literally came right back into that workroom." "I had just lost." " Uh-huh." " And so your mind just starts playing tricks on you." " Do you feel that Alyssa broke the pact when she sent you home?" " Wait, hold on." "Can we break the pact down?" "What was the pact?" " It was a blood oath..." "(all laugh)" "Administered by the members of Rolaskatox." " Rolaskatox formation." " Well, the pact was that the eliminations would be based on the judges' critiques." "And do you feel that she broke that pact?" " If she had been a part of that pact, then, yes, she would have broken it." "But she wasn't part of that pact." " You said in your sign off interview that I played a dirty game." " Yes." " You do play a dirty game." " She just won the Snatch Game." "She got one point." "You were safe, episode one, two points." "You were in the middle of the road both times." "If I was being strategic, I would have packed your ass." "(all laugh)" " All right, kids, we'll be right back." " Coming up...." " You have to also sit back and say, well, yes, because it's Alyssa, it's judged a little differently." " Don't say I get a free pass because I'm funny." " Utter bullshit." " Errr." "(RuPaul laughs)" " ¶ And beyond, you'll always be a hero ¶" " Let's talk movie she-quels." "Alaska kicked Alyssa in the challenge." " ¶ Camp town ladies sing this song ¶" " ¶ Doo-dah, doo-dah ¶" " Dead!" " Aah!" " And then kicked her again right out of the competition." " The queen I've selected is Alyssa Edwards." "(sobs)" " Alyssa, what do you think was behind Alaska giving you the chop?" " (clicks tongue)" "(all laugh)" "Well, let me ask you." "Do you feel that any of it was strategy?" " No." " Do you think you based it on judges critiques?" " Yes, and I was there in the scene with you." "(all laugh)" "Girl, I'll send you home again right now." "Does anyone have a lipstick with Alyssa on it?" "I did it." "I would do it again." " You sent her home solely based on the challenge." "Is that what you're saying?" " I felt like she did the worst." "I mean, we barely got through it." "We barely got it all on tape, all the words from the pages on the scene." "So it was like, I was afraid are we even going to get through this one time?" "Of course, watching the episode at home, everyone in the bar is like, yeah, she's hilarious." "But it was not hilarious there." "It was serious." "And then the camera dress, I thought, that's not two in one." "It was like, I'm holding the camera dress, and now here's the camera dress!" " Well, wait, you didn't have a two in one at all." " Um..." " A funeral shroud, cloud of black trash bags?" " I thought it was lovely." " No, it was-- the second part was amazing." "The first part was utter bullshit." "Bitch, utter bullshit." " Errr." " Alyssa, some queens have said that the judges were easier on you in the critiques than they were on the other girls." " I totally disagree." " There were several times that all the judges were like, it works because it's Alyssa." "It's the Alyssa-isms." "And Alyssa-isms is a pass, though." " You have to also sit back and say, well, yes, because of my Alyssa-isms, because of how infectious it is, it's judged a little differently." " Girl, no T, you had one suitcase it looked like." "You had a bra and a panty and a paint for the first one." "You had a little strappy outfit and paint for the second." "And I couldn't do that." "Your body is flawless." " Right." " She's wearing combat boots on the runway, and she's wearing flip-flops." " Don't you come for my flip-flops." " And jellies." "We all have our own drag." " Everybody has their own drag." " Don't say--yeah, don't say" "I get a free pass because I'm funny." " Well, Jeremy Scott said you are fashion." " You know what?" "Coco Chanel says take off two." "Alyssa Edwards says add 22." " I love playing dress up." "This is a drag show." "This is the ultimate All Star show." "Girl, reach in that caboodle, that's your shit." "(all laugh)" " On that point, Alyssa, I have a fan question for you." "On a scale of Gila monster to beast, how well do you think you slayed the runway this season?" " I think I was...a wildebeest." " Okay." " Because it was wild, bitch, it was all out!" " Right after Alyssa was sent packing, the mirror cracked." " I am sick of hearing them say, you can wear shit on stage, but it's okay, 'cause you're Alyssa." "It was sloppy." "It was like she kept saying, like, you shouldn't send me home because I've only been in the bottom once, and she was too concerned about saying this is your second time in the bottom." "You should go home." "It seemed to me she was more concerned about throwing you two under the bus during deliberations." " What?" " Oh, my God!" " Oh, fuck my God!" " What is going on here?" " Trust the duchess." "It ain't over just yet, baby." " Oh, my goodness, child, that mirror had four faces." " Oh, God, it was the best feeling in the world." " None of us knew what was happening." "We were just told get into drag and stand here, and I felt a lot of pain, because this one was pissed off and had her claws digging into my arm for about 30 minutes while y'all were talking in there." " Well, I was trying to fix my hair and shit, and I was like, girl, she's mad." " We were there...well, we were behind the mirror for like an hour." " Jesus Christ." " But we heard everything." " Everything." "But when it literally turned into that fresh wound, just salt all over it." "That good organic sea salt." " Honestly, I was happy that I might have a chance to come back." "But then it was like hearing everything in the room, it just sounded so dark, and it was like" " Do I want to want this?" " I want to be here and I want to compete, but, girl, I don't--why you got to be dark-sided, girl?" "I was already eliminated." " There was a lot of aggression, for sure." " It didn't sound like there was any humility there." "It was more so, it was, like, I got that bitch." " Right." " You know?" " So what was your first thought when you saw these bitches appear in the mirror?" " I thought they looked fucking sickening." "They looked so correct, but then I was, like, now what the fuck are you going to do to me?" " That was epic, though." "That mirror scene, y'all did that." "You think you're clever, don't you, bitch?" "(all laugh)" " The fashion this season had everybody, including the "New York Times," gagging." "Now I want some queen on queen critiques." "When we love an outfit, we toot it." "And when we don't, we boot it." "Katya, top two." " Roxxxy Andrews final outfit, stunning from head to toe." " Oh!" "Oh, my God." " Smashing wigs, colostomy bags and toenails out of every living room in America." " Every single thing that Roxxxy Andrews wore down the runway." " Yes." " It was incredible." " I couldn't pick just one." " I want to say it's Phi Phi." " I was obsessed with her futuristic look." " Honestly, Phi Phi's future of drag look was probably one of my favorite looks." "I thought it was brilliant." " Top boot." " Ginger's space look." " Oh, yes." " Space ho and robot chicken." " My top two of the season was the top four." "Visually, they're just super stunning." "They looked like a bunch of fairies up there." "And then boot me, I look like a fucking shiny sack up there." "(laughs)" " Alaska?" " Top two, definitely Detox." "The latex red bellbottom pantsuit thing." "It was beautiful." "it looked like it was painted on your body." "It haunts me forever." "Top boot, the fucking camera dress." "So stupid." " Hey, you got--girl, you got cockroaches on your dress." "(all laugh)" " They're my pets." " All right, stay right there, we'll be right back." "Coming up...." " Tell me about the hug that never happened." " It was, like, oh, just chill out." " I just don't think that she wanted to hug Alyssa." "(RuPaul laughs)" "(RuPaul laughs)" " Now, Alyssa Edwards and Tatianna made All Star her-story when they both lip synced their way back into the competition." "When you strutted onto the runway, we knew we were in for something." " You can look into our eyes." "We were fighting to get back in." " Yeah, we were." " I was like, damn, I really wanted this so bad." " Now, tell me about the hug that never happened." " Bye, love you." "Phi Phi, I tried to hug you, though." " What was going through your mind at that time, Alyssa?" " I didn't vote Phi Phi because of anything other than her behavior." "It was starting to feed off on everyone, and it was like, girl, just chill out and take a deep breath and laugh." "So when I tried to hug him at the end," "I wanted to say, look, you know what?" "We came, we saw, we conquered." "It's okay to be a little bitter and a little disappointed." "That's life when you fall short." "But always tell someone else, good job and congrats." "It's harder to be the bigger person in life." " I just don't think that she wanted to hug Alyssa." "(laughs)" "Because she walked up, dissed her, but then gave everyone else a hug after her." "So that's why I don't necessarily believe that it was 'cause she was going to cry." "Um, also, she did not cry after hugging everybody." " When I saw it, I was like, no!" "Bitch, hug her!" "Like, you're going to regret this is what I felt." " It was an authentic moment." "She was angry and pissed." "Don't pretend to be something you're not." "If you want to recoil from the hug, that's a moment." " But you already pretended in the dress--in the workroom." " Right, but what you see isn't always the truth." " Right. (laughs)" " Now, the family makeovers challenge may have been my all-time favorite challenge." " Mine, too." " Now, Detox, how did putting your sister into drag bring you closer together?" " I mean, we're pretty inseparable to begin with." "Having her share that moment and being here, and as being my rock to begin with, and to be such a rock during that challenge was one of the most amazing experiences ever." " Yeah." " I will never forget it." " What about you, Roxxxy?" "Now, that was your grandmother who raised you as her child." " She's always wanted to be in front of cameras, so this like her shining glory, like" " Couldn't tell." " You couldn't tell?" " She's gorgeous." " Thank you." " How, Alaska, did putting your mom into drag affect your relationship with her?" " Well, I've always considered my mom a drag queen anyway." "And I have so many memories of my mom, like, being in the bathroom and getting ready and doing her, like, face and her hair." "So she knows what it's like to be a drag queen." " And Katya, your mother seemed like a real natural." "When you put that" " Upstaged me." " When she put that lace front on" " Put that Marilyn on and hit it." " Yeah." "Has she changed since that challenge?" " I told her, you know, you could be recognized on the street, mom, and she was like, oh, my God, I didn't think of that." "So I pray for her." " Yes, yes." "Well, I got to say, Alyssa Edwards, we've seen the crazy nut, you know, tongue popping Alyssa, but to see you so human and so vulnerable, it felt like Alyssa Edwards came full circle." " Mom would have loved to do this." "She would have." " Yeah." "I'm glad we're together, because it's a sensitive time for us." " (sobs) Well, thank you for coming." "The day that they closed my mother's casket," "I just shut down." " What was your takeaway in being there?" " When my mom died, it was just like," "I packed my suitcase and I left." "I did a show that night of my mother's funeral, and I could tell that I was running from something." "When she came into the room, I just, I didn't know what to say." "I didn't know if I should say I'm sorry." "When I looked at the hurt in her eyes," "I knew that they lean so much on me." "You make time for a booking, you make time for a family." "Because they're going to be the ones that are going to be there for you." " Yeah." "All right, we've got a fan question." "What is your freakiest fan interaction?" "Adore, I bet you've got some." " I sleep with a lot of my fans, so" " You do?" " I do." " Uh-huh." " I believe in free love." " Sure, why not?" " Like, cuddle?" " No, I sleep with my fans, like full on." "Like, if they're attractive, yeah, like, I make babies." " Girl, if you can't fuck your fans, who can you fuck?" " Exactly." "No, I believe if you have an attraction, like, why not?" "Nothing shocks me with a fan." " What about you girls back there?" "Have you had carnal knowledge with the fans?" " Um, no, I" " Oh, shut up, Tatianna." "You're a whore." " You know what?" "They might be a fan of me after our" " Okay." " No, I had a dude lick my foot in Chicago, though." " That counts." "Now, Detox, have you had" " Oh, you know we've had this conversation." " You've had relations with the fans." " I've had very carnal relations with very many a fan." " Uh-huh." " And I feel like some of us have, like, shared" " We've shared fans." " We've shared fans." " We've had--I've shared Courtney's fans." " And I usually get the pictures after." " There was one time I was in my hotel room and there were like these two boys in there, and I was like, uh, go see Adore." "She's just down the hall." " Oh, my God, I was scared." "I was like, no!" "I don't want" " You did, though." " Yeah, I did, yeah." " We had fun, us girls." " We'll be right back." " Coming up..." " It was heart wrenching, sending you home, because I knew that it was not right." " Do you hold a grudge?" "(RuPaul laughs)" " Now, in the family makeover challenge, we learned that global warming is real." "Let's take a look at Alaska's meltdown." "(all laugh)" " I fucked up this week, man, and it really sucks." "It fucking really fucking sucks, and I need to be in the final four, and now I'm potentially looking at I'm not going to be." "I'll give you $10,000 if you let me stay." "I'll transfer it to you via PayPal, because I need to stay in this competition." " What was going through your mind when you saw Alaska do this?" " I thought it was ridiculous." "For someone who to me is so talented and brilliant at what they do and is so together, to have one, to me, small minor misstep affect them and shake them so much, it was very alarming." " I thought it was strategic." " Oh." " But it was fun to watch her crumble." "(all laugh)" " That's so rude." " I think for me, I seen it differently." "I seen someone that it really meant a lot to them." "And it was like, bitch, I have hustled," "I have worked, I have fought," "I have cried, I've stood back up." "And if you were judging, you probably would have sent yourself home." " Yep." " That's a good point." "That's a very good--what was going through your mind?" " Going in to "All Stars 2,"" "I was, like, I didn't want to do anything that could be perceived as weakness, because I watched Season 5 and I saw someone who was really insecure and who let that insecurity affect their performance in the competition." "And I didn't want there to be a single frame of camera of me stumbling over a line or doing anything they could play that bumbly stupid music behind, the ¶ doo-doo-doo-doo ¶" "(all laugh)" "And, Detox, if you want the $10,000," "I'll send you my PayPal later." "Thank you for not sending me home." " Now, Detox, in the family makeover challenge, explain why you sent Alyssa home over Alaska and Roxxxy." " There was no way that I could have sent her home, because she had been killing it, and when it came down to choosing between these two," "I knew that Roxxxy should have gone." "And I went to go get that lipstick, and there was just something-- my stomach was turning." "I know I'm making the wrong decision, but it's a decision I had to stand by." "It was heart wrenching sending you home, because I knew that it was not right." " Do you hold a grudge?" " No." "Mm-mm." "No, because I've learned if you hold a grudge, it only eats away at your success and your happiness." " Sure, yeah." " I had to let go of that." " Now, one gorgeous All Star queen taught us all some new wig tricks this season." "Let's take a look." " Thick and juicy is back, bitches." "Dear, what seems to be going on?" " Roxxxy, my dear..." " (sighs)" " You are an All Star." " I'm walking away so proud." "I got to show who I truly was." " I will forever be thick and juicy." "Bye-bye." "(all laugh)" " So, Roxxxy, you made it all the way to the final four of "All Stars."" "How does that feel?" " It felt bittersweet." "I was in the bottom so many times," "I felt like, I shouldn't have-- I didn't earn my way there." "And that's-- It's bittersweet." "I was happy to be there and to continue to compete, but I felt like..." "like, I don't know, like I wasn't supposed to be there." " I think you should have won." "Girl, you were in the bottom six out of seven episodes, and you made it to the finals." "That's how "Big Brother Survivor's" won." "I think you should have been in the final three." " Now, a lot of you girls were in Roxxxy's original season." "How well do you think she did in this competition?" " Burned it." "You have such a respect for the fucking art of what drag is, and every detail is thought about." " I could just tell how happy she was to be there, which was a nice departure from the first time around." " Well, also this was a chance for you to redeem yourself, and you absolutely did that." "And let me say this." "You know, you're not given a redemption." "It's something that you earn." "I just wanted to clear that up for people who don't understand how that works, and you earned it, Roxxxy." "Con-drag-ulations." " Thank you." " Right on." "(applause)" "We'll be right back after this." "Did you pop a nail, girl?" "(laughs)" "Coming up..." " Is there anything you'd change about the season?" " Oh, God, that sounds ominous." " (laughs)" "(RuPaul laughs)" " Now, when the time came to crown our queen, these next two queens came so close, it hurts." "First, there was Detox." " ¶ D to the E to the T to the O ¶" "¶ To the--hold it ¶" " Oh!" " ¶ X ¶" "Everyone's favorite trash talking transvestite." "My tuck is right." "I'm brilliant." "I'm beautiful." "I've never felt more...dead?" " It left us gagging." " Thank you very much." " Now, Detox, maybe more than anyone else this season, your runway looks slayed, officially." " Yes!" "(laughs)" " What was your proudest moment?" " The entire thing." "Like, I feel such, like, validation." "Season 5, I was not in the game." "I was, like, so not present, but still had that, like, grandioso attitude, and coming back and still having my signature grandioso attitude, but slaying it." " Why were you out of it in your season?" " My dad just found out he had cancer right before I came to film, and he kind of encouraged me to go ahead and do it, but the whole time I was just thinking, like," "I shouldn't be here." "Even though, like, it was something I wanted for so long." "And it sucked, because it was like, I was finally there, and like, not really being able to perform to my best abilities." "And to get back here and to be able to share with people who I admire and respect so much," "I was like, yes, this is what it should have been the first time around." " Give me your favorite Detox moments." "Anybody?" " I think that last episode, there was just something so angelic about all of them, but because I've known you for so many years, it was just really a big proud moment." "Like, as a friend, just to see how beautiful you looked." "Oh, I'm like getting emotional." "I'm all super proud of you." " Thank you." " Every moment of Detox's is a wonderful moment." "She's wonderful inside and out." " And she's seen me inside, too." " Oh, okay." "Right on, right on," " Shh, don't tell that." " All right, and now, the only high class Russian whore, Katya." " My name's Katarina Petrona Zamalawchickova, but you can call me Katya," "(snorts) I am bombarded by a cacophony of demonic voices in my head telling me... (deep voice) You're not good enough." "Wow." "I'm giving you 1980s disinterested Ellen Barkin fantasy, and I feel..." "(deep voice) amazing." "I'm not going to panic because I don't do that anymore." " (laughs)" "Katya, I'm so happy you were able to embrace your confidence and spotlight your talents in "All Stars."" " Oh, me, too." "You put me through drag school." "I was going to go to grad school." "Switch the D and the G." "You have no idea how lucky I am to be a part of it." "I don't care about winning." "I never did." "I want to be a part of the family." " And you are." " Yep." " And you are." "Is there anything you'd change about the season?" " I would probably bring some better clothes, but I'm on a style journey that is still evolving, Ru." " Yeah." " We were just plucked out of" "I don't want to harp on it, but plucked out of the season and thrown back into the skillet." " Yeah." " Still scabby." "(laughs)" " Now, I want to talk about the power of Katya." " Oh, God, that sounds ominous." " Ginger, tell me about the power of Katya." " There's not a mean spirited bone in her body." "I'm convinced there's barely any bones in her body, wit the things she does with it." " Somebody put their bone in my body." "I'm so lonely." " Oh, my God." " Sorry." " But she's just, she's just wonderful and she is a star and she's just this big ball of energy." " Alaska, you also have a left from center point of view," "Were there any things that she did that you thought, mm, I wish I would have done that." " Oh, no, I wouldn't have wanted to do any of that." " (laughs)" " She's really smart, possibly dangerous-- I'm not sure-- and she can do a fucking split." " Yeah." " So fuck you." " You're a pig from hell." " Fuck you!" "They're going to edit that in the commercial, and it will look like I meant it." "(all laugh)" " Now, "Drag Race" is truly the Olympics of drag, and this next queen brought home the gold." " ¶ Who's that bitch that on the top?" "¶" "¶ Oh, wait, that's me, hey, porkchop ¶" "Bam." "(all laugh)" "Nobody can do Alaska except Alaska." "¶ I'm campy and classy and cunty and mean ¶" "Why don't you come on up and fuck me in the ass sometime?" "Aah!" "Totally." " I think you've done a pretty amazing job this journey." "You've come a long way since auditioning for Season 1." " Con-drag-ulations, Alaska." " Thank you." " What does the future hold for Alaska, hall of famer?" " Well, I'm going to have a giant picture in a hallway." " Uh-huh." " I got a new hat." " Yes." " I like it." " Yeah." " I just put out a new CD." " Yes." " A new tape." " It's a new tape." "It's called "Pound Cake."" " Exactly." " Now, as your first official duty," "I'd like your opinion on an audition tape made by a young up and coming queen just getting started in drag." "Let's take a look." " Certainly." " Three words to describe Alaska Thunderfuck" "Drug addicted whore, batshit crazy, hot mess city." "Because I have class," "I have grace, and I have sophistication." " Yes." "(applause)" " I'd say put her on "Drag Race" in five years." "(all laugh)" " Now, that was the second audition." " Yeah." " And then you sent in a third." " Uh-huh." " And a fourth." " Uh-huh." " (laughs) And a fifth." " Uh-huh." "(all laugh)" "I'm going to send one next year, too." "(all laugh)" " Now, all you other ladies, you got to admit that Alaska was stiff competition." "Oh." " (imitating Mae West) Oh." " What are your favorite Alaska moments?" " Snatch Game, for sure." " Yes." " I farted laughing so hard." " "Executive opulence, anus-thing is possible."" " It was always good, but it became perfect in "All Stars."" " Charismic beauty, disturbing talent," "I think you define that." " Alaska, from the very beginning," "I saw in you perseverance, a sense of fun, a sense of intellect, a sense of being a marketing genius, which is really the future of drag." "And I'm so happy for your success." "Very happy." " Thank you." "This is amazing." "Everybody turned it up, turned it out, and like, made this the best season of "Drag Race" ever." " Yes, this was absolutely the best season of "Drag Race" ever." "And you all have been so gracious to share your stories and your heartbreak and your dignity." "And I am so proud of each of you." "(applause)" "Now, remember, if you can't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?" "Can I get an amen up in here?" " Amen." " Amen." " All right, now let the music play." " ¶ Throw your hands up ¶" "¶ Time to get down ¶" "¶ Throw your hand up ¶" " Come on." " ¶ Time to get down, down, down, down, down ¶" " Oh, my gosh." "(laughs)" "Mwah." " Chad, do you ever get lonely in here?" " Snap out of it."
