11 Reasons To Watch RuPaul's Drag Race

For those of you who don’t watch "RuPaul’s Drag Race," or just aren’t familiar with the show, if I had to describe it in one word: well, I couldn’t. It’s completely outrageous, amazing, dramatic, and hilarious. When I first heard about the show, I didn’t know if I’d be into it, but now, I can’t stop watching. I’ve watched a season and a half in one day, and I regret nothing. The show is nothing that I ever expected it to be. I recommend that everyone watches it, here’s why.

  1. It shows you a completely differentlifestyle of men in drag.


2. The illusion and art of the makeup and outfits they create and put together is so breathtaking and surreal. They have so much talent. If they don’t, well, “Sashay Away.”


3. The drama and the judgement is real.


4. RuPaul will give you chills. He is stunning.

5. The drag queens pretty much promote acceptance and the LGBTAQ+ community. Something that Ru repeatedly preaches is that drag queens get to pick their family despite hardships they faced throughout their upbringing.


6. RuPaul is the "end-all-be-all" of the entire competition. His decision is always the one that counts of all the judges, and is always the final one.

7. On that note, just a friendly reminder that the two gifs pictures above are in fact, the same person. It only took me two seasons to realize this. Respect the transformation.

8. The range of different fashion styles and choices are compelling.

9. Their overall excitement from winning mini challenges will give you live and happiness.

10. There is always someone in the group of 14 that has a bad attitude from the start, which ultimately leads to all of the drag queens praying for that person's failure. The drama is amazing.

11. Whenever there's enemies, they always somehow become best friends by the end of the show.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
