Monét is finally blocked,

89
00:03:28,413 --> 00:03:30,241

90
00:03:30,241 --> 00:03:32,724

the secret
of the Platinum Plunger

92
00:03:35,067 --> 00:03:36,655

and being honest,

102
00:03:57,862 --> 00:04:02,000
I was thinking
of blocking someone else.

103
00:04:04,620 --> 00:04:08,000

was not up for a block.

double block me.

[cheers and applause]

181
00:07:41,275 --> 00:07:43,310
Monét, since you were blocked,

182
00:07:43,310 --> 00:07:46,862
I'm letting you choose
the speaking order.

183
00:07:46,862 --> 00:07:48,137
Ooh!

184
00:07:48,137 --> 00:07:49,344
[nervous laughter]

185
00:07:49,344 --> 00:07:50,965
I'll go first,
Vivienne will go home.

186
00:07:50,965 --> 00:07:52,827
[all laugh]

187
00:07:52,827 --> 00:07:55,068
Oh, and one more thing.

188
00:07:55,068 --> 00:07:58,551
This week,
the top two All Stars

189
00:07:58,551 --> 00:08:03,068
will receive two legendary
Legend Stars.

190
00:08:03,068 --> 00:08:04,413
What?

191
00:08:04,413 --> 00:08:06,827
-Are you--
-No!

192
00:08:06,827 --> 00:08:10,931
One to keep, and one
to give to a fellow queen.

193
00:08:10,931 --> 00:08:13,517
What?

194
00:08:13,517 --> 00:08:15,206
Oh, my...

195
00:08:15,206 --> 00:08:16,793
-What?
-[laughs]

196
00:08:16,793 --> 00:08:19,689
Racers, start your engines,

197
00:08:19,689 --> 00:08:22,827
and may the best Legend win.

198
00:08:22,827 --> 00:08:26,034
[all laugh]

199
00:08:26,034 --> 00:08:28,448
-Yes!
-Okay.

200
00:08:28,448 --> 00:08:31,206
Boom-chaka-laka-laka.

201
00:08:31,206 --> 00:08:32,965
Pbl-pbl-pbl.

202
00:08:32,965 --> 00:08:34,895
This sounds fun.

203
00:08:34,895 --> 00:08:36,551
This week, our maxi-challenge

204
00:08:36,551 --> 00:08:38,034
is to write and deliver

205
00:08:38,034 --> 00:08:40,758
a drag-uation
commencement speech.

206
00:08:40,758 --> 00:08:43,586
Has anyone had to do a real
speech in real life before?

207
00:08:43,586 --> 00:08:44,724
I did in high school.

208
00:08:44,724 --> 00:08:47,620
A whole, like, inspirational BS

209
00:08:47,620 --> 00:08:49,827
about how we needed
to legalize pot.

210
00:08:49,827 --> 00:08:52,034
-And it worked.
-It worked. It worked.

211
00:08:52,034 --> 00:08:54,482
I feel like the way
for me to win this challenge

212
00:08:54,482 --> 00:08:57,344
is to really surprise
the judges.

213
00:08:57,344 --> 00:08:59,551
I want them to laugh with me,

214
00:08:59,551 --> 00:09:02,689
I want them to cry with me,

215
00:09:02,689 --> 00:09:04,482
I want them to give me a star.

216
00:09:06,068 --> 00:09:08,103
What are you thinking
for your angle?

217
00:09:08,103 --> 00:09:10,034
A little bit
of a cult leader.

218
00:09:10,034 --> 00:09:11,724
Sorceress
at the top of a mountain,

219
00:09:11,724 --> 00:09:14,241
wind blowing
through my silver hair.

220
00:09:14,241 --> 00:09:16,793
-Because that's the visual.
-Yeah.

221
00:09:16,793 --> 00:09:20,137
I sometimes think of myself
as a religious leader.

222
00:09:20,137 --> 00:09:23,275
A very small religion,
but it's a religion nonetheless.

223
00:09:23,275 --> 00:09:25,241
So my approach in the speech

224
00:09:25,241 --> 00:09:28,586
is to play a sorceress,
a soothsayer.

225
00:09:28,586 --> 00:09:30,413
She's kind of a wizard lady.

226
00:09:30,413 --> 00:09:33,241
Hello, fairy children
of Mother Earth.

227
00:09:33,241 --> 00:09:35,103
Are you looking at
what I'm writing?

228
00:09:35,103 --> 00:09:38,551
No, I was looking you
dead in the eyes.

229
00:09:38,551 --> 00:09:43,000
I would say just make sure your
speech starts with a big bang.

230
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,551
You wanna come out
of the gate swinging.

231
00:09:46,551 --> 00:09:50,689
Doing a conceptual character
is very ambitious,

232
00:09:50,689 --> 00:09:53,655
and it could really pay off.

233
00:09:53,655 --> 00:09:59,068
But let's see if she's got
those skills to pay those bills.

234
00:10:00,655 --> 00:10:02,344
Trinity is over there sewing.

235
00:10:02,344 --> 00:10:03,586
She's actually
sewing a speech.

236
00:10:03,586 --> 00:10:04,896
[laughs]

237
00:10:04,896 --> 00:10:06,931
[laughs]
Sewing her speech.

238
00:10:06,931 --> 00:10:09,517
She's embroidering it
under her coat.

239
00:10:09,517 --> 00:10:11,413
[laughs]
I wouldn't put it past her.

240
00:10:11,413 --> 00:10:13,896
Look, y'all,
I embroidered my speech.

241
00:10:13,896 --> 00:10:15,137
[laughs]

242
00:10:15,137 --> 00:10:16,275
Hee-haw!

243
00:10:16,275 --> 00:10:18,551
It's not "hee-haw."
[all laugh]

244
00:10:18,551 --> 00:10:20,448
Let me focus.

245
00:10:20,448 --> 00:10:22,551
You know, the werkroom,
though much bigger now,

246
00:10:22,551 --> 00:10:25,896
still is not a conducive
writing environment.

I have seven
loud bitches in here

Where's the rhythm?

00:11:04,862 --> 00:11:06,758
I need a thesaurus.

I might help. Sometimes
I'm a good thesaurus.

-Fuck off.

Monét, what's another word
for "inhibited?"

268

Blocked.

-[laughs]
-Oh, my God, that's hilarious.

270
00:11:25,034 --> 00:11:27,206
I may be blocked,

271
00:11:27,206 --> 00:11:29,206
but it puts
a little extra pep in my step

272
00:11:29,206 --> 00:11:31,517
knowing that I get to pick
the order this week.

273
00:11:31,517 --> 00:11:32,586
You know what, Jinkx?

274
00:11:32,586 --> 00:11:33,896
I was thinking about the lineup,

275
00:11:33,896 --> 00:11:35,620
and I think
I'm gonna put you ninth.

276
00:11:35,620 --> 00:11:38,517

277
00:11:38,517 --> 00:11:40,103
And with two extra stars
on the table

to be given away
to somebody else,

279
00:11:42,379 --> 00:11:45,344
I think I can really use
this power to my advantage

280
00:11:45,344 --> 00:11:46,482
in this challenge.

281
00:11:46,482 --> 00:11:47,827
I have no shame.

282
00:11:47,827 --> 00:11:51,206
I'm gonna get Miss Monét
a charity star. Werk.

283
00:11:51,206 --> 00:11:53,241
Does anyone have somewhere
that they'd like to go?

284
00:11:53,241 --> 00:11:55,793
I would prefer
to not be first or last.

285
00:11:55,793 --> 00:11:57,965
I don't know,
maybe, like, third.

286
00:11:57,965 --> 00:11:59,172
I'm not gonna tell you
what to do,

287
00:11:59,172 --> 00:12:01,655
but I would prefer to be third.

288
00:12:01,655 --> 00:12:03,620
I would like
to be in the middle.

289
00:12:03,620 --> 00:12:05,000
Werk.

290
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,551
I think the hard ones
are beginning and end.

291
00:12:07,551 --> 00:12:09,620
So if you happen to get
a legendary Star this week

292
00:12:09,620 --> 00:12:11,620
and you can give one
to someone else,

293
00:12:11,620 --> 00:12:15,413
I mean, that would
just be so lovely.

294
00:12:15,413 --> 00:12:17,000
I'll definitely
keep that in mind.

295
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,758
You gotta play these bitches
like fiddles, okay?

296
00:12:18,758 --> 00:12:21,103
And I'm like an octopus.
I'm playing all the fiddles.

We are just--we are fiddling.

It's how you play the game.

I hope somebody gives me
a motherfucking star, bitch.

is going to be myself.

Sounds fair.

321
00:13:10,517 --> 00:13:12,931
Just because I blocked you,
you're putting me at the end.

wherever you want, luv.

Now it's time to workshop
my drag-uation speech

330
00:13:38,241 --> 00:13:41,068
with Nikki Glaser
and Carson Kressley.

331

Hi, Nikki.

Hi, Monét.

333
00:13:43,068 --> 00:13:44,448
I love Nikki Glaser.

334
00:13:44,448 --> 00:13:47,068
I'm a big fan of her type
of humor and her comedy.

335
00:13:47,068 --> 00:13:49,482
She is so savage
and she's so funny.

336
00:13:49,482 --> 00:13:53,482
So having her helping us
with our speeches, perfect.

337
00:13:53,482 --> 00:13:55,275
What you say first

338
00:13:55,275 --> 00:13:57,482
is going to be the thing
that people remember.

339
00:13:57,482 --> 00:14:00,034

is so important, what is yours?

faculty, and esteemed guests.

That was good.

and you do this,

whoever you're insinuating
you're blowing,

I'm not really sure
why I was asked to be here.

355

Maybe it was because of my
brilliant fashions on Season 10

00:14:30,034 --> 00:14:31,586
or maybe just all this ass.

357
00:14:31,586 --> 00:14:34,000
Either way, today you graduate
and take your fist--

358
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,827
[clears throat] first real steps
out into the world.

359
00:14:36,827 --> 00:14:38,551
And that's all I have so far.

360
00:14:38,551 --> 00:14:41,931
You've given us so much funny
and so much sass

361
00:14:41,931 --> 00:14:46,241
that a kernel or two
of sincerity,

362
00:14:46,241 --> 00:14:49,758
a little bit of sass
with some inspiration, I think.

363
00:14:49,758 --> 00:14:51,724
Or ass-pirational?

364
00:14:51,724 --> 00:14:53,551
Well, it's always
gonna be that with you.

365
00:14:53,551 --> 00:14:55,172
Yeah. [laughs]

366
00:14:55,172 --> 00:14:58,310
So, Shea, what do you think you
should impart in your speech?

367
00:14:58,310 --> 00:15:01,896
I just started thinking
about my journey in school,

368
00:15:01,896 --> 00:15:03,827
and I feel like we all look back

369
00:15:03,827 --> 00:15:07,517
and we think about
the hot, popular kids,

370
00:15:07,517 --> 00:15:09,862
that they grow up
and they're not as glamorous.

371
00:15:09,862 --> 00:15:12,482
But I'm here to be, like,
living proof that they are.

372
00:15:12,482 --> 00:15:15,448
[laughs]
Okay. That's a fun angle.

373
00:15:15,448 --> 00:15:20,482
I was a super femme
drama/art nerd

374
00:15:20,482 --> 00:15:23,310
who was up against
this giant society

375
00:15:23,310 --> 00:15:27,448
that was set up to, like,
not allow me to flourish.

376
00:15:29,068 --> 00:15:30,517
Yeah.

377
00:15:30,517 --> 00:15:32,206
And then one day I just
looked at myself in the mirror

378
00:15:32,206 --> 00:15:34,241
and I said, fuck 'em.

379
00:15:34,241 --> 00:15:38,310
I'm gonna be the baddest and
the gayest and the flounciest,

380
00:15:38,310 --> 00:15:40,931
and show them
that I am going places,

381
00:15:40,931 --> 00:15:43,758
and you're going to see me
everywhere one day.

382
00:15:43,758 --> 00:15:44,896
I love that.

383
00:15:44,896 --> 00:15:46,448
I think that is so good,

384
00:15:46,448 --> 00:15:48,034
and then add with
a fun little light button

385
00:15:48,034 --> 00:15:51,034
to have us laughing
on the way out would be amazing.

386
00:15:51,034 --> 00:15:52,620
Okay. I'm feeling
really encouraged

387
00:15:52,620 --> 00:15:54,172
by the feedback I'm getting.

388
00:15:54,172 --> 00:15:57,379
But now I have to actually
finish writing it.

389
00:16:00,793 --> 00:16:02,827
Okay, so set the stage for us.

390
00:16:02,827 --> 00:16:06,172
I'm trying to kind of draw on
my own personal experiences

391
00:16:06,172 --> 00:16:09,241
-of sobriety and addiction.
-Okay.

392
00:16:09,241 --> 00:16:12,965
So I may have found the bar
before I come up for my speech.

393
00:16:12,965 --> 00:16:14,241
Okay.

394
00:16:14,241 --> 00:16:16,172
But it's still inspirational.
[chuckles]

395
00:16:16,172 --> 00:16:18,068
-Should we go through it?
-Yeah, sure.

396
00:16:18,068 --> 00:16:20,896
[slurring] Good afternoon,
fellow students,

397
00:16:20,896 --> 00:16:22,482
teachers,
and some old faces

398
00:16:22,482 --> 00:16:25,482
I really wish I'd never
have to see again in my life.

399
00:16:25,482 --> 00:16:29,137
And, yes, to the judgmental
bastards in the yearbook

400
00:16:29,137 --> 00:16:32,758
who said I was the most likely
to become a crackhead

401
00:16:32,758 --> 00:16:36,655
and piss my life up the wall,
you were right.

402
00:16:36,655 --> 00:16:39,379
You do such
a fantastic drunk voice.

403
00:16:39,379 --> 00:16:41,896
I think just take out
any superfluous words.

404
00:16:41,896 --> 00:16:43,137
-Yeah.
-Not any filler.

405
00:16:44,379 --> 00:16:46,068
-Well, that.
-What is filler?

406
00:16:46,068 --> 00:16:47,275
I thought
I might try it once.

407
00:16:47,275 --> 00:16:48,655
Yeah, just tighten it up,

408
00:16:48,655 --> 00:16:49,896
because drunk people
are not fun to listen to,

409
00:16:49,896 --> 00:16:51,551
because they get rambly.

410
00:16:51,551 --> 00:16:52,896
So if you're giving us that
character with tight jokes,

411
00:16:52,896 --> 00:16:55,793
it's gonna be
a really great one-two punch.

412
00:16:55,793 --> 00:16:57,551
All right, perfect.

413
00:16:57,551 --> 00:16:58,862
So I have a lot of stuff,

414
00:16:58,862 --> 00:17:00,793
but I don't know
if it's in the right order,

415
00:17:00,793 --> 00:17:02,206
or maybe it's too much.

416
00:17:02,206 --> 00:17:03,034
Well, what are the beats
that you're working with?

417
00:17:03,034 --> 00:17:04,275
Beat it out for us.

418
00:17:04,275 --> 00:17:06,241
Hello, graduates,
I'm so honored

419
00:17:06,241 --> 00:17:07,896
to be giving
a commencement address

420
00:17:07,896 --> 00:17:12,619
to such talented people
who are much smarter than me.

421
00:17:12,619 --> 00:17:14,000
[laughs]

422
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,655
I'm kind of surprised
that I would be asked

423
00:17:15,655 --> 00:17:18,068
to be one of the ones
to speak here today,

424
00:17:18,068 --> 00:17:21,068
being that Hooked on Phonics
didn't work for me.

425
00:17:21,068 --> 00:17:23,103
-[laughs]
-And to be honest,

426
00:17:23,103 --> 00:17:25,586
I really was on
Hooked on Phonics as a kid.

427
00:17:25,586 --> 00:17:27,000
-You were?
-So, yes.

428
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,068
Math, English, writing,
I struggled through it all,

429
00:17:30,068 --> 00:17:31,931
but I'm okay with taking
the piss out of myself

430
00:17:31,931 --> 00:17:34,034
because I'm not the same person

431
00:17:34,034 --> 00:17:36,344
as I was when I was
struggling with that.

432
00:17:36,344 --> 00:17:38,586
I think there's a lot
of inspiration here.

433
00:17:38,586 --> 00:17:39,793
So much.

434
00:17:39,793 --> 00:17:41,206
And then I think
you're gonna pepper it

435
00:17:41,206 --> 00:17:44,000
with some self-deprecating humor
to give us some relief.

436
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,172
Yeah.

437
00:17:45,172 --> 00:17:47,000
You've got a big heart
and a tiny nose.

438
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,000
Use both of them.

439
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,517
I have a tiny nose now.

440
00:17:50,517 --> 00:17:51,862
-That's also a funny bit.
-Yes!

441
00:17:51,862 --> 00:17:53,862
You know,
how much you have changed.

442
00:17:53,862 --> 00:17:55,137
-Okay.
-Yes!

443
00:17:55,137 --> 00:17:56,620
My nose has changed,
my ass has changed.

444
00:17:56,620 --> 00:17:57,620
Yes.

445
00:17:57,620 --> 00:17:58,827
Okay.

446
00:17:58,827 --> 00:18:00,310
You can't spell "tassel"
without "ass."

447
00:18:00,310 --> 00:18:02,517
Don't do a spelling joke
around Trinity.

448
00:18:02,517 --> 00:18:03,586
Oh!

449
00:18:03,586 --> 00:18:05,137
Did you not hear?

450
00:18:05,137 --> 00:18:06,137
Yeah, she doesn't know
how to spell.

451
00:18:06,137 --> 00:18:08,413
[both laugh]

452
00:18:08,413 --> 00:18:09,586
I'm taking it.

453
00:18:09,586 --> 00:18:12,172
That'll at least be
one good joke.

454
00:18:12,172 --> 00:18:14,827
Hi, Jinkx Monsoon.

455
00:18:14,827 --> 00:18:17,275
What do you have
in store for us?

456
00:18:17,275 --> 00:18:19,482
I have, like,
two different speeches.

457
00:18:19,482 --> 00:18:21,413
-Great.
-Sure, give us the ideas.

458
00:18:21,413 --> 00:18:25,310
The first one would be the time
I was hit by a car in Amsterdam.

459
00:18:25,310 --> 00:18:27,068
Mm, good times.

460
00:18:27,068 --> 00:18:30,275
Luckily, I was so drunk

461
00:18:30,275 --> 00:18:33,137
that I just flopped over the car
like a ragdoll,

462
00:18:33,137 --> 00:18:36,758
landed flat on the ground,
stood back up, felt fine,

463
00:18:36,758 --> 00:18:38,310
thought that was a freebie.

464
00:18:38,310 --> 00:18:41,068
The thesis statement is--

465
00:18:41,068 --> 00:18:43,206
-Look both ways?
-[laughs]

466
00:18:43,206 --> 00:18:47,068
Don't wait
to address your trauma.

467
00:18:47,068 --> 00:18:48,793
All right,
let's hear the next one.

468
00:18:48,793 --> 00:18:50,448
This one would be called

469
00:18:50,448 --> 00:18:53,172
the time I got a condom
lost inside of me.

470
00:18:53,172 --> 00:18:56,724
I really feel like
I'm gonna connect with this.

471
00:18:56,724 --> 00:18:59,137
If you don't know
what "whiskey dick" is,

472
00:18:59,137 --> 00:19:04,241
does the expression "pushing
rope" mean anything to you?

473
00:19:04,241 --> 00:19:05,896
That's also strong.

474
00:19:05,896 --> 00:19:07,310
It's so strong.

475
00:19:07,310 --> 00:19:09,827
But I think the first one
is very universal.

476
00:19:09,827 --> 00:19:11,034
-Yes, so good.
-Thank you.

477
00:19:11,034 --> 00:19:12,172
Thank you for talking about

478
00:19:12,172 --> 00:19:14,758
having a condom
stuck up inside you.

479
00:19:14,758 --> 00:19:16,103
I thought I was alone!

480
00:19:16,103 --> 00:19:18,137
-Yes, and you're not!
-No!

481
00:19:18,137 --> 00:19:20,068
-And I'm gonna remove it.
-Yeah.

482
00:19:20,068 --> 00:19:22,034
Finally!

483
00:19:22,034 --> 00:19:23,931
So do you wanna
run through it with us?

484
00:19:23,931 --> 00:19:25,000
Absolutely.

485
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,655
I'm Jaida Essence Hall--

486
00:19:26,655 --> 00:19:28,482
Dr. Jaida Essence Hall--

487
00:19:28,482 --> 00:19:30,206
because today,
that feels right.

488
00:19:30,206 --> 00:19:31,758
I love that.

489
00:19:31,758 --> 00:19:34,689
Now, I know being here I am
truly doing the Lord's work,

490
00:19:34,689 --> 00:19:37,551
and I'm so proud of myself,

491
00:19:37,551 --> 00:19:39,310
as I'm sure
you're all proud of me.

492
00:19:39,310 --> 00:19:40,310
[both laugh]

493
00:19:40,310 --> 00:19:41,896
And then it gets serious.

494
00:19:41,896 --> 00:19:44,965
Part of your comedy
is your confidence.

495
00:19:44,965 --> 00:19:46,689
You're so regal
and you're so wonderful.

496
00:19:46,689 --> 00:19:48,482
Yeah, I'm glad you noticed.

497
00:19:48,482 --> 00:19:51,517
Yes, lean into that,
because it's funny.

498
00:19:51,517 --> 00:19:53,137
Yeah. You can't help
but be hilarious. You're a star.

499
00:19:53,137 --> 00:19:54,310
Thank you.

500
00:19:54,310 --> 00:19:55,275
I'm so excited
to see what you do.

501
00:19:55,275 --> 00:19:56,793
Thank you.

502
00:19:56,793 --> 00:19:59,482
What would be your speech
in one sentence?

503
00:19:59,482 --> 00:20:01,448
Go out and fail.

504
00:20:02,793 --> 00:20:04,379
Fail as much as possible.

505
00:20:04,379 --> 00:20:05,758
-Why?
-Why?

506
00:20:05,758 --> 00:20:08,344
When you're worried about
succeeding all the time,

507
00:20:08,344 --> 00:20:09,931
you limit your experience

508
00:20:09,931 --> 00:20:12,517
and you limit what you're
allowing yourself to take in.

509
00:20:12,517 --> 00:20:16,275
Whereas when you do get
that really sweet failure,

510
00:20:16,275 --> 00:20:19,000
it gives you a chance
to learn from that mistake.

511
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,862
-That's a great idea.
-It's so good.

512
00:20:20,862 --> 00:20:22,655
Do you wanna run
some of the lines?

513
00:20:22,655 --> 00:20:25,206
I have the beginnings.

514
00:20:25,206 --> 00:20:29,517
Howdy, y'all, I'm Yvie Oddly,
and it is my--uh...

515
00:20:29,517 --> 00:20:31,689
Uh...uh...

516
00:20:33,862 --> 00:20:35,551
You can just read it,
seriously.

517
00:20:35,551 --> 00:20:36,793
Like, you don't need to be--

518
00:20:36,793 --> 00:20:38,172
Girl, I just wrote this
five minutes ago.

519
00:20:38,172 --> 00:20:40,448
I'm not up for it yet.
I'm so sorry.

520
00:20:40,448 --> 00:20:42,965
I guess I'm passionate
about failure.

521
00:20:42,965 --> 00:20:45,103
[laughs]

522
00:20:45,103 --> 00:20:46,793
I can't wait to see you
really eat it tomorrow.

523
00:20:46,793 --> 00:20:48,758
-You're gonna be horrible.
-Thank you.

524
00:20:48,758 --> 00:20:51,068
Good luck,
and do fuck it up.

525
00:20:51,068 --> 00:20:52,793
Yeah, truly, eat shit.

526
00:20:52,793 --> 00:20:55,827
[laughs]

527
00:20:55,827 --> 00:20:57,689
Of course there's a greeting
at the beginning.

528
00:20:57,689 --> 00:20:59,275
Hello, I'm Raja.

529
00:20:59,275 --> 00:21:04,137
I will be your sorceress,
soothsaying sage, and speaker.

530
00:21:04,137 --> 00:21:08,344
So you're giving us Raja
as kind of another character.

531
00:21:08,344 --> 00:21:09,379
Cult leader.

532
00:21:10,724 --> 00:21:12,896
-Okay. Uh-huh.
-Yes, yes.

533
00:21:12,896 --> 00:21:16,482
You know, tonight I'm here
to share some of my wisdom

534
00:21:16,482 --> 00:21:19,241
about how we are all part
of the ebb and flow,

535
00:21:19,241 --> 00:21:22,862
and that if something
as vast as the ocean

536
00:21:22,862 --> 00:21:25,620
succumbs to the tides
of the moon,

537
00:21:25,620 --> 00:21:28,172
none of us as humans
are exempt.

538
00:21:28,172 --> 00:21:29,689
So it starts there.

539
00:21:29,689 --> 00:21:31,034
Profound shit.

540
00:21:31,034 --> 00:21:32,482
Are you into it?
I'm into it.

541
00:21:32,482 --> 00:21:34,724
We can use some sprinkles
of comedy.

542
00:21:34,724 --> 00:21:35,758
Of course, yes.

543
00:21:35,758 --> 00:21:37,517
It's dramatically comedic.

544
00:21:37,517 --> 00:21:38,827
There's more coming,
there's more coming.

545
00:21:38,827 --> 00:21:41,241
Like, just everything
needs to be faster.

546
00:21:41,241 --> 00:21:42,689
You know, for those
who don't understand,

547
00:21:42,689 --> 00:21:44,586
it might feel
a little out of the box,

548
00:21:44,586 --> 00:21:46,068
but I think it's funny,

549
00:21:46,068 --> 00:21:48,517
I think I have
a profound message to give,

550
00:21:48,517 --> 00:21:50,482
and this could just be
my own Gemini delusion,

551
00:21:50,482 --> 00:21:52,241
but I feel that my presence

552
00:21:52,241 --> 00:21:55,896
is enough of a statement
on its own, even in silence.

553
00:21:55,896 --> 00:21:58,241
Perhaps I'll win a star
this week.

554
00:21:58,241 --> 00:21:59,931
-Maybe.
-Fuck, I hope.

555
00:21:59,931 --> 00:22:01,517
-[laughs]
-Over it.

556
00:22:01,517 --> 00:22:02,965
I haven't won a star yet, so--

557
00:22:02,965 --> 00:22:04,482
-That's outrageous.
-I'm rooting for you.

558
00:22:04,482 --> 00:22:05,620
I can't even.

559
00:22:05,620 --> 00:22:06,827
[laughs]

560
00:22:06,827 --> 00:22:08,758
Peace.

561
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,655
♪ Whoo-hoo ♪

562
00:22:12,655 --> 00:22:14,758
A new day.

563
00:22:14,758 --> 00:22:16,586
I thought you were gonna
hit me with your purse,

564
00:22:16,586 --> 00:22:17,896
I tried, I missed.

565
00:22:17,896 --> 00:22:19,000
[laughs]

566
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,206
Happy graduation day!

567
00:22:21,206 --> 00:22:23,034
Today we're getting ready
to get on the stage

568
00:22:23,034 --> 00:22:25,517
and do our drag-uation
commencement speeches.

569
00:22:25,517 --> 00:22:26,758
How are you feeling, Jaida?

570
00:22:26,758 --> 00:22:27,931
I'm feeling good.
How are you feeling?

571
00:22:27,931 --> 00:22:29,482
Feeling pretty good.

572
00:22:29,482 --> 00:22:32,344
I am excited to hopefully
inspire some people out there.

573
00:22:32,344 --> 00:22:34,034
Let's take
a Tajín shot together.

574
00:22:34,034 --> 00:22:35,551
-Have you ever done it before?
-Sure. No.

575
00:22:35,551 --> 00:22:39,206
Also, give you all a little bit
of my dry sense of humor, okay?

576
00:22:39,206 --> 00:22:40,965
[coughs]

577
00:22:40,965 --> 00:22:42,517
So this gives you energy?

578
00:22:42,517 --> 00:22:43,827
-Yeah, I feel like it does.
-What's in it?

579
00:22:43,827 --> 00:22:46,103
Just, like, seasonings.
I don't know.

580
00:22:46,103 --> 00:22:48,275
Maybe the judges
will think it's fantastic,

581
00:22:48,275 --> 00:22:50,103
and maybe they'll think, like,

582
00:22:50,103 --> 00:22:53,034
get this thirsty bitch
some water.

583
00:22:53,034 --> 00:22:55,137
-I mean, I'll try anything.
-Okay.

584
00:22:55,137 --> 00:22:56,310
Anal? Cheers.

585
00:22:56,310 --> 00:22:58,551
[both laugh]

586
00:22:58,551 --> 00:22:59,724
This is gonna be fun.

587
00:22:59,724 --> 00:23:03,034
It's like All Winners
graduation day.

588
00:23:03,034 --> 00:23:04,620
-We just need booze.
-Yeah.

589
00:23:04,620 --> 00:23:08,344
Oh, my God, a cold glass
of sauv blanc.

590
00:23:08,344 --> 00:23:09,758
[all laugh]

591
00:23:09,758 --> 00:23:12,103
I'm gonna start
my own sauvignon blanc line.

592
00:23:12,103 --> 00:23:14,206
It's gonna be called
Wine and Complain.

593
00:23:14,206 --> 00:23:17,068
-[laughs]
-That's so good.

594
00:23:19,310 --> 00:23:20,724
I hope you don't think

595
00:23:20,724 --> 00:23:22,137
I was trying to be shady
with your placement at all.

596
00:23:22,137 --> 00:23:24,103
Second to last,
not a memorable spot.

597
00:23:24,103 --> 00:23:27,862
But if you're good, you're good,
no matter where you are.

598
00:23:27,862 --> 00:23:29,448
If anything,
I'm gonna make sure

599
00:23:29,448 --> 00:23:31,103
Vivienne has her work
cut out for her.

600
00:23:31,103 --> 00:23:33,448
What are you two shady bitches
talking about over there?

601
00:23:33,448 --> 00:23:34,758
[laughs]

602
00:23:34,758 --> 00:23:38,137
I think it's obvious
that The Vivienne and I

603
00:23:38,137 --> 00:23:41,379
share similar talents
and abilities,

604
00:23:41,379 --> 00:23:45,517
and half the time The Vivienne's
performing in the challenges,

605
00:23:45,517 --> 00:23:48,206
all I can think is, goddamn,
I wish I had thought of that.

606
00:23:48,206 --> 00:23:50,482
Everyone can hear each other
better than I thought.

607
00:23:50,482 --> 00:23:52,620
[laughs]

608
00:23:52,620 --> 00:23:58,793
That's probably why
we're becoming frenemies.

609
00:23:58,793 --> 00:24:01,172
Vivienne, how well
can you hear me right now?

610
00:24:01,172 --> 00:24:04,413
[laughs]

611
00:24:04,413 --> 00:24:07,206
Plus, The Viv basically said

612
00:24:07,206 --> 00:24:10,482
she would have blocked me
if she had the chance.

613
00:24:10,482 --> 00:24:14,103
So scary, you know?
[laughs]

614
00:24:14,103 --> 00:24:15,448
How does everyone feel

615
00:24:15,448 --> 00:24:18,620
about having the power
of giving away stars?

616
00:24:18,620 --> 00:24:20,482
I'm so geeked
by this fucking twist.

617
00:24:20,482 --> 00:24:23,103
Monét is determined to be
the first blocked girl

618
00:24:23,103 --> 00:24:24,793
to get a star while blocked.

619
00:24:24,793 --> 00:24:26,310
Blocked girls matter.

620
00:24:26,310 --> 00:24:27,758
[laughs]

621
00:24:27,758 --> 00:24:29,931
I mean, there's a couple
of queens in here

622
00:24:29,931 --> 00:24:32,689
who have stars
who have not been blocked yet.

623
00:24:32,689 --> 00:24:34,310
-There are.
-Yeah.

624
00:24:34,310 --> 00:24:35,310
-Huh?
-Huh?

625
00:24:35,310 --> 00:24:36,310
-Huh? What?
-What?

626
00:24:36,310 --> 00:24:37,344
Bitch, get off my back.

627
00:24:37,344 --> 00:24:39,655
[both laugh]
Aah!

628
00:24:39,655 --> 00:24:41,517
Bitch, I don't know
what you're talking about.

629
00:24:41,517 --> 00:24:43,137

Hey, Nikki, do you ever
get stage fright?

653
00:25:53,344 --> 00:25:55,068
I don't.
The one time I did, though,

654
00:25:55,068 --> 00:25:57,655
was when I had to roast
Ann Coulter,

655
00:25:57,655 --> 00:25:59,586
and it wasn't because
I was scared to be mean to her.

656
00:25:59,586 --> 00:26:01,310
It was just because
I had to share the stage

657

to stand before you here
at a dainty 5'12,

673
00:26:46,758 --> 00:26:50,896
but I'm not sure why
I was asked to be here today.

674
00:26:50,896 --> 00:26:54,448
Perhaps it was my sickening
looks on Season 10.

-Oop.
-Oop.

676

Or maybe just all this ass,
you know what I'm saying?

Either way, today marks
your graduation,

678
00:27:01,137 --> 00:27:03,517
and a commitment
to take your fist--

679
00:27:03,517 --> 00:27:05,137
oh, I mean first--first--

680
00:27:05,137 --> 00:27:07,758
first real steps
out into the world,

681
00:27:07,758 --> 00:27:10,034
where you'll encounter
many situations

682
00:27:10,034 --> 00:27:12,724
that'll compel you to ask
yourself:

683
00:27:12,724 --> 00:27:14,310
Am I doing this right?

684
00:27:14,310 --> 00:27:17,000
Did I choose the right career?

685
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,206
Should I have let
the entire football team

686
00:27:19,206 --> 00:27:20,965
spit roast me again?

687
00:27:20,965 --> 00:27:23,000
Yes.
[all laugh]

688
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,586
The answer is always yes.

689
00:27:24,586 --> 00:27:26,310
When I graduated college,

690
00:27:26,310 --> 00:27:29,448
I can honestly stand here
and admit that I was afraid.

691
00:27:29,448 --> 00:27:33,103
I was afraid to let the world
at large see me for who I was.

692
00:27:33,103 --> 00:27:36,758
But a wise spirit
named Mufasa once said,

[imitating Mufasa]
"Remember who you are, Simba."

694
00:27:39,344 --> 00:27:42,137
Don't be afraid to show
the world who you are.

695
00:27:42,137 --> 00:27:43,689
So what you're loud?

696
00:27:43,689 --> 00:27:45,241
So what you stutter?

697
00:27:45,241 --> 00:27:46,413
So what you're poor?

698
00:27:46,413 --> 00:27:48,310
So what you're queer?

699
00:27:48,310 --> 00:27:49,931
When life
is giving it to you hard,

700
00:27:49,931 --> 00:27:52,758
you stand there, you grit
your teeth, sniff some poppers,

701
00:27:52,758 --> 00:27:56,206
and you take it,
every inch of it.

702
00:27:56,206 --> 00:27:59,793
Con-drag-ulations, graduates.
You turned it!

703
00:27:59,793 --> 00:28:02,862
[applause]

704
00:28:04,275 --> 00:28:07,344
Please welcome Shea Couleé.

705
00:28:07,344 --> 00:28:09,068
Hello, drag-uates.

706
00:28:09,068 --> 00:28:10,413
When I was approached

707
00:28:10,413 --> 00:28:12,275
to speak at today's
commencement ceremony,

708
00:28:12,275 --> 00:28:15,896
my first thought
was avoid clichés.

709
00:28:15,896 --> 00:28:20,137
However, I realized that, like
Jinkx Monsoon's makeup skills,

710
00:28:20,137 --> 00:28:21,344
they're not that bad.

711
00:28:21,344 --> 00:28:22,931
[all laugh]

712
00:28:22,931 --> 00:28:27,206
For example, how many of us
have been reassured growing up

713
00:28:27,206 --> 00:28:30,517
that the popular kids don't
mature into popular adults?

714
00:28:30,517 --> 00:28:34,344
Well, I can say that
that statement is false.

715
00:28:34,344 --> 00:28:36,344
I was popular then,

716
00:28:36,344 --> 00:28:38,137
and I'm popular now.

717
00:28:38,137 --> 00:28:42,620
But as a young, Black,
queer and femme person,

718
00:28:42,620 --> 00:28:44,724
it wasn't always easy.

719
00:28:44,724 --> 00:28:49,034
So one day in the cafeteria
I did the unthinkable.

720
00:28:49,034 --> 00:28:51,344
I walked
to the center of the room

721
00:28:51,344 --> 00:28:54,206
and sat at the cool kids' table.

722
00:28:54,206 --> 00:28:57,137
Everyone looked at me
like I was delusional.

723
00:28:57,137 --> 00:28:58,482
They tried to shade me,

724
00:28:58,482 --> 00:29:01,172
but, baby,
you can't shade the sun.

725
00:29:01,172 --> 00:29:02,517
[all laugh]

726
00:29:02,517 --> 00:29:04,000
Now, I know that this story

727
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,241
sounds like some clichéd plot
from a John Hughes film,

728
00:29:07,241 --> 00:29:10,724
but I guarantee you it's not,
because I'm Black.

729
00:29:10,724 --> 00:29:13,241
[all laugh]

730
00:29:13,241 --> 00:29:18,034
In closing, there could be
99 people in a cafeteria

731
00:29:18,034 --> 00:29:20,137
that don't believe in you,

732
00:29:20,137 --> 00:29:24,068
but if one person
believes in you,

733
00:29:24,068 --> 00:29:26,517
then you can be
the baddest bitch in school.

734
00:29:26,517 --> 00:29:31,689
And sometimes,
that one person is you.

735
00:29:31,689 --> 00:29:33,448
Thank you.

736
00:29:33,448 --> 00:29:36,034
[cheers and applause]

737
00:29:36,034 --> 00:29:40,586
Next, please welcome
Trinity the Tuck.

738
00:29:40,586 --> 00:29:42,620
Hello, drag-uates.

739
00:29:42,620 --> 00:29:44,137
I'm actually kind of surprised

740
00:29:44,137 --> 00:29:46,137
that I was asked
to speak here today,

741
00:29:46,137 --> 00:29:53,551
mostly because Hooked on Phonics
didn't work for...moo?

742
00:29:53,551 --> 00:29:56,068
[all laugh]
Muh?

743
00:29:56,068 --> 00:29:58,655
Whatever, girl,
it didn't work for me.

744
00:29:58,655 --> 00:30:00,620
When I was in school,

745
00:30:00,620 --> 00:30:03,448
I didn't know
if I was smart enough.

746
00:30:03,448 --> 00:30:06,965
I didn't think that
I was good at anything,

747
00:30:06,965 --> 00:30:08,896
and my grandmother
got really, really sick,

748
00:30:08,896 --> 00:30:12,482
and I had to quit school
to take care of her.

749
00:30:12,482 --> 00:30:14,896
That prevented me

750
00:30:14,896 --> 00:30:18,379
from graduating with my class
in high school.

751
00:30:18,379 --> 00:30:22,965
But you do what you have to do
for those you love.

752
00:30:22,965 --> 00:30:25,758
Remember that.

753
00:30:25,758 --> 00:30:30,000
I eventually found drag
and realized what I was good at.

754
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,137
I may not have walked down
with a cap and gown,

755
00:30:33,137 --> 00:30:36,931
but, girl, I do put the "ass"
in "tassel."

756
00:30:36,931 --> 00:30:38,482
[all laugh]

757
00:30:38,482 --> 00:30:40,655
Some of you are about to go out
and do some amazing things.

758
00:30:40,655 --> 00:30:41,862
Most won't.

759
00:30:41,862 --> 00:30:43,724
[all laugh]

760
00:30:43,724 --> 00:30:45,758
But never give up.

761
00:30:45,758 --> 00:30:50,758
Hard work and determination will
lead you to maybe do what I did,

762
00:30:50,758 --> 00:30:54,586
and tie for first
on a reality competition show.

763
00:30:54,586 --> 00:30:55,896
And if the degree

764
00:30:55,896 --> 00:30:58,137
that your parents spent
thousands of dollars on

765
00:30:58,137 --> 00:31:01,310
doesn't work out, girl,
just go down to Mexico

766
00:31:01,310 --> 00:31:03,655
and get yo ass fat
and become a drag queen.

767
00:31:03,655 --> 00:31:05,482
Congratulations.

768
00:31:05,482 --> 00:31:07,241
[all laugh]

769
00:31:07,241 --> 00:31:08,517
Thank you.

770
00:31:08,517 --> 00:31:10,034
[applause]

771
00:31:10,034 --> 00:31:14,034
It is my honor to present Raja.

772
00:31:15,793 --> 00:31:17,103
[laughs]

773
00:31:17,103 --> 00:31:20,137
Greetings, friends.

774
00:31:20,137 --> 00:31:22,275
It is my great honor to be here.

775
00:31:22,275 --> 00:31:24,896
I am aware of your presence.

776
00:31:24,896 --> 00:31:26,034
[all laugh]

777
00:31:26,034 --> 00:31:30,965
I am Raja,
soothsayer, sorceress,

778
00:31:30,965 --> 00:31:36,034
sage, and speaker tonight.

779
00:31:36,034 --> 00:31:41,068
Here are five important pieces
of earned wisdom to remember.

780
00:31:41,068 --> 00:31:45,931
One: time in this realm
will feel rapid and limited.

781
00:31:45,931 --> 00:31:48,034
Grasp every moment

782
00:31:48,034 --> 00:31:52,758
and connect always
to the ebb and flow,

783
00:31:52,758 --> 00:31:55,931
'cause we're all gonna die.

784
00:31:55,931 --> 00:32:00,206
[all laugh]

785
00:32:00,206 --> 00:32:03,655
Two: Fuck a lot.

786
00:32:03,655 --> 00:32:06,827
Like, a lot-lot.

787
00:32:06,827 --> 00:32:09,137
Fuck till you can't
fuck no more.

788
00:32:09,137 --> 00:32:10,206
[all laugh]

789
00:32:10,206 --> 00:32:15,034
Three: pay. your. taxes.

790
00:32:15,034 --> 00:32:17,103
They are watching.

791
00:32:17,103 --> 00:32:19,379
They know when you're asleep
and awake.

792
00:32:19,379 --> 00:32:22,103
They know you purchase poppers
from Berlin online.

793
00:32:22,103 --> 00:32:26,000
They know your women's shoe size
is really a 15.

794
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,068
[all laugh]

795
00:32:28,068 --> 00:32:33,793
Four: always be kind
and good to people,

796
00:32:33,793 --> 00:32:36,655
especially if they have money.

797
00:32:36,655 --> 00:32:39,517
[all laugh]

798
00:32:39,517 --> 00:32:42,827
Oh, yes. Be nice
to the poor as well.

799
00:32:42,827 --> 00:32:46,241
One can never be sure
if a camera lurks nearby

800
00:32:46,241 --> 00:32:47,793
to capture your good deeds.

801
00:32:47,793 --> 00:32:50,965
[all laugh]

802
00:32:50,965 --> 00:32:53,448
Last but not least,
number five:

803
00:32:53,448 --> 00:32:59,344
"institutions"
also spells "intuitions"

804
00:32:59,344 --> 00:33:01,551
if you're dyslexic.

805
00:33:01,551 --> 00:33:04,103
[all laugh]

806
00:33:04,103 --> 00:33:07,931
A wise soul once said
if you reach for the moon,

807
00:33:07,931 --> 00:33:11,517
you'll find yourself
amongst the stars.

808
00:33:11,517 --> 00:33:14,965
You'll incinerate and combust
passing through the atmosphere,

809
00:33:14,965 --> 00:33:16,827
but, yes, stars.

810
00:33:16,827 --> 00:33:18,586
[all laugh]

811
00:33:18,586 --> 00:33:22,275
Thank you, stay booked,
stay blessed.

812
00:33:22,275 --> 00:33:23,758
[laughter and applause]

813
00:33:23,758 --> 00:33:25,586
Yes, Raja!

814
00:33:25,586 --> 00:33:27,413
That was so good!

815
00:33:27,413 --> 00:33:30,172
Yes!

816
00:33:30,172 --> 00:33:34,413
[RuPaul laughs, bell dings]

817
00:33:34,413 --> 00:33:36,793
[RuPaul laughs]

818
00:33:36,793 --> 00:33:41,310
Welcome back
to our drag-uation ceremony.

819
00:33:41,310 --> 00:33:46,241
Next, please welcome
Jaida Essence Hall.

820
00:33:46,241 --> 00:33:47,965
Well, good evening, bitches.

821
00:33:47,965 --> 00:33:49,862
[all laugh]

822
00:33:49,862 --> 00:33:51,275
I am so glad to see

823
00:33:51,275 --> 00:33:54,724
that my degrees from Drag U
and Trump University

824
00:33:54,724 --> 00:33:59,137
are finally
being put to good use.

825
00:33:59,137 --> 00:34:00,620
Now, for most of us,

826
00:34:00,620 --> 00:34:04,517
this is as good as it's ever
going to fucking get.

827
00:34:04,517 --> 00:34:06,344
But you're all alive,

828
00:34:06,344 --> 00:34:10,034
and this would be extremely
awkward if you weren't.

829
00:34:10,034 --> 00:34:11,413
[all laugh]

830
00:34:11,413 --> 00:34:14,551
Growing up, I had imagined

831
00:34:14,551 --> 00:34:16,172
that life
was this perfect set of steps

832
00:34:16,172 --> 00:34:19,551
that led
to a pathway of success.

833
00:34:19,551 --> 00:34:24,275
But when I turned 30 years old,
I felt like such a failure

834
00:34:24,275 --> 00:34:27,620
because I had not graduated
from high school,

835
00:34:27,620 --> 00:34:29,172
I didn't go to college,

836
00:34:29,172 --> 00:34:31,724
I didn't have
this amazing corporate job

837
00:34:31,724 --> 00:34:33,482
or this big, beautiful family,

838
00:34:33,482 --> 00:34:37,206
and I thought that I really
missed my chance at success.

839
00:34:37,206 --> 00:34:40,413
But opportunity
did knock on my door,

840
00:34:40,413 --> 00:34:44,000
and I found true love,
true happiness,

841
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,379
and most importantly,
success, bitch.

842
00:34:47,379 --> 00:34:48,688
Look at me!

843
00:34:48,688 --> 00:34:51,034
And I'm so proud of me,

844
00:34:51,034 --> 00:34:54,965
as I'm sure
all of you are today.

845
00:34:54,965 --> 00:34:58,275
"Hold for applause."

846
00:34:58,275 --> 00:35:01,413
[laughter and applause]

847
00:35:01,413 --> 00:35:03,965
Never believe
that it is too late

848
00:35:03,965 --> 00:35:05,689
for you to join the party.

849
00:35:05,689 --> 00:35:08,896
And speaking of party,
bitch, I gotta get outta here,

850
00:35:08,896 --> 00:35:11,758
because we got one after this,
and Imma head out.

851
00:35:11,758 --> 00:35:14,137
So look over there!

852
00:35:14,137 --> 00:35:15,689
Bye, motherfuckers!

853
00:35:15,689 --> 00:35:18,206
[applause]

854
00:35:18,206 --> 00:35:21,379
Please welcome Yvie Oddly.

855
00:35:21,379 --> 00:35:23,034
Ooh!
[applause]

856
00:35:23,034 --> 00:35:24,448
Oh!

857
00:35:24,448 --> 00:35:26,758
[all laugh]

858
00:35:28,586 --> 00:35:30,689
[laughs] I love it.

859
00:35:30,689 --> 00:35:34,896
[applause]

860
00:35:34,896 --> 00:35:38,689
Now, before we begin,
I would really appreciate it

861
00:35:38,689 --> 00:35:41,620
if we could take some time
to bow our heads

862
00:35:41,620 --> 00:35:44,586
and give praise to the creator,

863
00:35:44,586 --> 00:35:47,310
through whom all things
are possible.

864
00:35:48,586 --> 00:35:50,344
Thank you, RuPaul.

865
00:35:50,344 --> 00:35:51,482
[all laugh]

866
00:35:51,482 --> 00:35:52,689
Like, seriously, girl,

867
00:35:52,689 --> 00:35:54,862
thanks for signing
that check, bitch.

868
00:35:54,862 --> 00:35:58,482
You know, they say money
can't buy happiness,

869
00:35:58,482 --> 00:36:00,827
but looking at all
these bitches' smiles,

870
00:36:00,827 --> 00:36:03,517
it can at least buy you
a new grill.

871
00:36:03,517 --> 00:36:06,517
My time competing on Drag Race

872
00:36:06,517 --> 00:36:10,413
gave me something more important
than any check could ever write,

873
00:36:10,413 --> 00:36:13,620
so I feel it's my duty
to pass it on to you:

874
00:36:13,620 --> 00:36:16,551
the gift of failure.

875
00:36:16,551 --> 00:36:18,103
Mm.

876
00:36:18,103 --> 00:36:21,137
I would like to think that
all of my successes in life

877
00:36:21,137 --> 00:36:24,379
are really just
the fruit of my failures.

878
00:36:24,379 --> 00:36:26,758
For example,
I might never have known

879
00:36:26,758 --> 00:36:30,413
that I was so damn good
at lip syncing

880
00:36:30,413 --> 00:36:31,965
if I didn't first discover

881
00:36:31,965 --> 00:36:35,931
how damn bad I am at
impersonating Whoopi Goldberg.

882
00:36:35,931 --> 00:36:38,103
[all laugh]

883
00:36:38,103 --> 00:36:39,379
Ru tried to warn me.

884
00:36:39,379 --> 00:36:41,275
[imitating RuPaul]
"You in danger, girl."

885
00:36:41,275 --> 00:36:43,965
It's still not there.

886
00:36:43,965 --> 00:36:46,448
So when you go out
into the world,

887
00:36:46,448 --> 00:36:50,517
I want you to try hard,
I want you to swing big,

888
00:36:50,517 --> 00:36:53,172
and I want you to fail.

889
00:36:53,172 --> 00:36:55,517
Because it's through
these trials and errors

890
00:36:55,517 --> 00:37:01,206
that we really learn to become
the people we are meant to be.

891
00:37:01,206 --> 00:37:05,310
Good luck, and fuck it up.

892
00:37:05,310 --> 00:37:06,551
Fuck it up.

893
00:37:06,551 --> 00:37:08,448
Con-drag-ulations!

894
00:37:08,448 --> 00:37:10,793
[applause]

895
00:37:13,275 --> 00:37:16,655
Please welcome Jinkx Monsoon.

896
00:37:16,655 --> 00:37:21,172
Hello, and blessed be
to the graduating class

897
00:37:21,172 --> 00:37:24,275
of whatever year you're
watching this on YouTube.

898
00:37:24,275 --> 00:37:26,137
[all laugh]

899
00:37:26,137 --> 00:37:29,793
I'm Jinkx Monsoon,
and it's become very obvious

900
00:37:29,793 --> 00:37:33,103
that I thought I was speaking
at a different school today.

901
00:37:33,103 --> 00:37:37,034
So I'm going to salvage
as much of this speech as I can.

902
00:37:37,034 --> 00:37:38,448
[clears throat]

903
00:37:38,448 --> 00:37:41,551
Double, double,
toil and trouble--

904
00:37:41,551 --> 00:37:43,758
No, I think we can skip
that part. Okay.

905
00:37:43,758 --> 00:37:47,517
Hecate, Hecate, Hecate--
Yeah, none of this works here.

906
00:37:47,517 --> 00:37:50,517
Oh, okay, here's something
we all can relate to.

907
00:37:50,517 --> 00:37:55,344
One year I was reluctantly
taking a vacation in Amsterdam--

908
00:37:55,344 --> 00:37:57,896
That's going on holiday
for you, Viv.

909
00:37:57,896 --> 00:38:00,965
And as I was returning
to my hotel

910
00:38:00,965 --> 00:38:03,655
after a particularly raucous
night out,

911
00:38:03,655 --> 00:38:05,517
a car came whipping
around the corner,

912
00:38:05,517 --> 00:38:08,034
driving backwards at full speed.

913
00:38:08,034 --> 00:38:10,689
It hit my body
like a charging rhino,

914
00:38:10,689 --> 00:38:13,103
knocked the joint
right out of my hand.

915
00:38:13,103 --> 00:38:15,379
I just flopped over the car
like a ragdoll,

916
00:38:15,379 --> 00:38:16,793
landed flat in the street.

917
00:38:16,793 --> 00:38:20,068
But I stood up,
dusted myself off, took a bow,

918
00:38:20,068 --> 00:38:22,655
and said, "That was a freebie."

919
00:38:22,655 --> 00:38:25,241
I felt completely fine,

920
00:38:25,241 --> 00:38:28,034
so I didn't do
anything about it.

921
00:38:28,034 --> 00:38:29,551
Now seven years later,

922
00:38:29,551 --> 00:38:32,379
my spine is out of alignment
in three different places

923
00:38:32,379 --> 00:38:33,827
and I wake up every morning

924
00:38:33,827 --> 00:38:36,241
feeling like I've been
put through a cement mixer.

925
00:38:36,241 --> 00:38:37,586
[all laugh]

926
00:38:37,586 --> 00:38:40,172
You see, the body
remembers trauma,

927
00:38:40,172 --> 00:38:42,931
even if the mind suppresses it.

928
00:38:42,931 --> 00:38:47,172
Some say being born
is an act of trauma.

929
00:38:47,172 --> 00:38:48,482
Think of it.

930
00:38:48,482 --> 00:38:51,551
You are ripped out of
the ultimate safe space,

931
00:38:51,551 --> 00:38:54,482
and then thrust into a world
full of people

932
00:38:54,482 --> 00:38:58,689
who would just as soon
run you down with their car

933
00:38:58,689 --> 00:39:00,620
and leave you for dead

934
00:39:00,620 --> 00:39:03,034
in the middle
of the streets of Amsterdam!

935
00:39:03,034 --> 00:39:05,896
[all laugh]

936
00:39:07,620 --> 00:39:10,482
I implore you to allow
yourselves the time

937
00:39:10,482 --> 00:39:12,344
to process your trauma.

938
00:39:12,344 --> 00:39:16,758
Do the work today
so you can truly enjoy tomorrow.

939
00:39:16,758 --> 00:39:21,413
The grand high witch herself,
RuPaul, once told me,

940
00:39:21,413 --> 00:39:23,793
"We can't forgive our past

941
00:39:23,793 --> 00:39:27,517
until we allow ourselves
time to face it,"

942
00:39:27,517 --> 00:39:30,034
or something to that effect.

943
00:39:30,034 --> 00:39:31,655
My memory is mashed potatoes.

944
00:39:31,655 --> 00:39:34,241
I was hit by a fucking car!

945
00:39:34,241 --> 00:39:36,793
[laughter and applause]

946
00:39:39,758 --> 00:39:42,758
Please welcome The Vivienne.

947
00:39:42,758 --> 00:39:45,689
[slurring]
Good afternoon.

948
00:39:45,689 --> 00:39:49,068
First off,
let me just apologize

949
00:39:49,068 --> 00:39:52,896
for my fellow speakers'
bloody dull stories.

950
00:39:52,896 --> 00:39:56,517
I had to have a drink
just to stay awake.

951
00:39:56,517 --> 00:40:00,931
But I did come here
to share a story with you all

952
00:40:00,931 --> 00:40:03,689
about my sobriety journey.

953
00:40:03,689 --> 00:40:06,000
[all laugh]

954
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:10,206
And as you can see,
it's going bloody fantastic.

955
00:40:10,206 --> 00:40:15,034
And, yes, the judgmental
bastards in the yearbook

956
00:40:15,034 --> 00:40:18,310
who said I was most likely
to become a crackhead

957
00:40:18,310 --> 00:40:20,413
and piss my life up the wall,

958
00:40:20,413 --> 00:40:23,758
congratulations, you were right.

959
00:40:23,758 --> 00:40:26,896
[all laugh]

960
00:40:26,896 --> 00:40:31,724
I can see my old Spanish tutors
out there in the crowd.

961
00:40:31,724 --> 00:40:33,448
Hola,Mr. Kressley.

962
00:40:33,448 --> 00:40:35,068
You know, it's funny.

963
00:40:35,068 --> 00:40:38,758
Mr. Kressley would never give
you a good grade, would he?

964
00:40:38,758 --> 00:40:41,206
No matter how many times
you noshed him off.

965
00:40:41,206 --> 00:40:44,448
Oh, sorry.
Our little secret.

966
00:40:44,448 --> 00:40:46,793
[all laugh]

967
00:40:46,793 --> 00:40:48,586
But let's take a minute

968
00:40:48,586 --> 00:40:53,068
to look at these fine speakers
this evening.

969
00:40:53,068 --> 00:40:56,206
Jinkx Monsoon
finished top of her class.

970
00:40:56,206 --> 00:40:59,655
Trinity the Tuck finished
top of her professor.

971
00:40:59,655 --> 00:41:03,068
[all laugh]

972
00:41:03,068 --> 00:41:07,413
And well done, Raja,
for finally getting your degree.

973
00:41:07,413 --> 00:41:11,103
Just too bad by the time
you get to use it,

974
00:41:11,103 --> 00:41:12,965
you'll be dead.

975
00:41:12,965 --> 00:41:14,413
[all laugh]

976
00:41:14,413 --> 00:41:18,034
There are many ways in life
to get to the top.

977
00:41:18,034 --> 00:41:19,689
Take it from me.

978
00:41:19,689 --> 00:41:24,068
You'll be much more popular
if you're a bottom.

979
00:41:24,068 --> 00:41:29,103
And if all else fails,
just do what I did.

980
00:41:29,103 --> 00:41:31,827
Find the oldest,
richest man you can,

981
00:41:31,827 --> 00:41:34,827
marry him, then push
the bastard down the stairs.

982
00:41:34,827 --> 00:41:36,758
[all laugh]

983
00:41:36,758 --> 00:41:38,379
Cheers.

984
00:41:38,379 --> 00:41:42,310
[laughter and applause]

985
00:41:48,172 --> 00:41:49,689
Is she okay?

986
00:41:49,689 --> 00:41:51,206
[all laugh]

987
00:41:55,551 --> 00:41:58,965
Category is Veiled It.

988
00:41:58,965 --> 00:42:02,896
Up first, Monét X Change.

989
00:42:05,793 --> 00:42:07,413
Nikki: She's so cagey.

990
00:42:07,413 --> 00:42:10,551
Michelle:
I tawt I saw a Monét X Change.

991
00:42:10,551 --> 00:42:13,241
Carson: Did she just
give us all the bird?

992
00:42:13,241 --> 00:42:15,344
[all laugh]

993
00:42:15,344 --> 00:42:18,034
Monét: Now, y'all know
I would not come out here

994
00:42:18,034 --> 00:42:19,896
in some traditional,
boring veil.

995
00:42:19,896 --> 00:42:22,965
I am giving you a songbird.
It's fashion.

996
00:42:22,965 --> 00:42:25,724
I look expensive,
and, baby, guess what?

997
00:42:25,724 --> 00:42:26,793
I smell expensive, too.

998
00:42:26,793 --> 00:42:27,793
Michelle:
Now, pluck off.

999
00:42:27,793 --> 00:42:30,448
[all laugh]

1000
00:42:30,448 --> 00:42:31,586
RuPaul: Shea Couleé.

1001
00:42:31,586 --> 00:42:33,931
Nikki:
Pleated for her pleasure.

1002
00:42:33,931 --> 00:42:36,827
Michelle:
The world accordion to Shea.

1003
00:42:36,827 --> 00:42:38,172
[all laugh]

1004
00:42:38,172 --> 00:42:41,517
Shea: I am channeling
my grandmother

1005
00:42:41,517 --> 00:42:43,172
floating through her garden

1006
00:42:43,172 --> 00:42:45,482
with these gorgeous
accordion pleats.

1007
00:42:45,482 --> 00:42:49,827
You cannot tell me that
I do not look like a legend.

1008
00:42:49,827 --> 00:42:52,517
Nikki: Now I know where in
the world Carmen Sandiego is.

1009
00:42:52,517 --> 00:42:54,379
RuPaul:
She's in "Veil," Colorado.

1010
00:42:54,379 --> 00:42:55,896
[all laugh]

1011
00:42:55,896 --> 00:42:57,862
Trinity the Tuck.

1012
00:42:57,862 --> 00:43:01,620
She's not high maintenance,
she's just high.

1013
00:43:01,620 --> 00:43:04,034
Michelle:
She'd like to say "I do,"

1014
00:43:04,034 --> 00:43:05,965
but she did, and he's dead.

1015
00:43:05,965 --> 00:43:07,413
[all laugh]

1016
00:43:07,413 --> 00:43:11,482
Trinity: I feel like
the only second wife

1017
00:43:11,482 --> 00:43:16,310
who married her rich, much
older husband who just died,

1018
00:43:16,310 --> 00:43:19,482
and she inherited it all.

1019
00:43:19,482 --> 00:43:21,586
And then
she's gonna marry his son.

1020
00:43:21,586 --> 00:43:24,551
Nikki: She's good at drag-ging
those flowers with her veil.

1021
00:43:24,551 --> 00:43:26,413
[all laugh]

1022
00:43:26,413 --> 00:43:30,482
To wear a train like this
with all the weight at the end,

1023
00:43:30,482 --> 00:43:33,034
bitch, I am getting a workout.

1024
00:43:33,034 --> 00:43:35,586
How is this wig still on?

1025
00:43:35,586 --> 00:43:38,724
Carson: Business in the front,
Rose Parade in the back?

1026
00:43:38,724 --> 00:43:40,448
RuPaul:
No, rosebud in the back.

1027
00:43:40,448 --> 00:43:42,275
[all laugh]

1028
00:43:42,275 --> 00:43:43,931
Up next, Raja.

1029
00:43:43,931 --> 00:43:46,517
Michelle: Raja's wearing
the latest edition.

1030
00:43:46,517 --> 00:43:49,724
RuPaul: This is the Anna Wintour
of our discontent.

1031
00:43:49,724 --> 00:43:51,068
[all laugh]

1032
00:43:51,068 --> 00:43:53,586
Raja: "Voile" in French
means "veil."

1033
00:43:53,586 --> 00:43:55,000
See what I did?

1034
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,000
I can be a little bit
of a maximalist.

1035
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,068
If you give me a challenge,
I might take it too far,

1036
00:43:59,068 --> 00:44:00,482
and you're gonna love it.

1037
00:44:00,482 --> 00:44:02,827
Carson: Well, she's really
got this look covered.

1038
00:44:02,827 --> 00:44:05,413
RuPaul:
Yes, she certainly does.

1039
00:44:05,413 --> 00:44:07,103
Jaida Essence Hall.

1040
00:44:07,103 --> 00:44:09,448
Wow, she's got this look
wrapped up.

1041
00:44:09,448 --> 00:44:11,275
Carson:
It's Spanish, and it's fly.

1042
00:44:11,275 --> 00:44:13,137
[all laugh]

1043
00:44:13,137 --> 00:44:15,586
Jaida: I'm giving you
the haunted woman

1044
00:44:15,586 --> 00:44:18,103
that's, like, deep down
at the end of a hallway,

1045
00:44:18,103 --> 00:44:19,793
and I'm just holding a candle,
looking sickening,

1046
00:44:19,793 --> 00:44:21,689
even if you can't see me fully.

1047
00:44:21,689 --> 00:44:24,000
Nikki: She walks into
the club hearse-first.

1048
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:25,241
[Michelle laughs]

1049
00:44:25,241 --> 00:44:27,068
RuPaul: Yvie Oddly.

1050
00:44:27,068 --> 00:44:29,655
Michelle: Ooh, I think
you mean Beadly Oddly.

1051
00:44:29,655 --> 00:44:30,931
[all laugh]

1052
00:44:30,931 --> 00:44:33,379
♪ Bead it ♪
I said "Bead it."

1054
00:44:35,103 --> 00:44:39,551
Yvie: I am serving
veils on veils to no avail.

1055
00:44:39,551 --> 00:44:42,000
So heavy, but you can't tell,

1056
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,724
because my leg is out
and I am pumping it.

1057
00:44:44,724 --> 00:44:46,724
RuPaul:
Because beading is what?

1058
00:44:46,724 --> 00:44:48,517
-Fundamental!
-Fundamental!

00:44:49,689 --> 00:44:51,620
RuPaul: Jinkx Monsoon.

Nikki: What's her
butterfly net worth?

1062
00:44:53,620 --> 00:44:56,241
Carson: Lavender?
I hardly know her!

1063
00:44:56,241 --> 00:44:58,862
Jinkx: It's a very
precarious headdress.

1064
00:44:58,862 --> 00:45:03,103
The slightest little breeze
throws everything off.

1065
00:45:03,103 --> 00:45:07,517
But I'm hoping the payoff
will be worth it.

1066
00:45:07,517 --> 00:45:10,275
Everything's coming up...
pansies?

1067
00:45:10,275 --> 00:45:11,275
[laughs]

1068
00:45:11,275 --> 00:45:13,482
I'm the goddess of the spring,

1069
00:45:13,482 --> 00:45:16,034
and I'm in full bloom,

1070

cybersex doll bride.

I'm supposed to
look like I'm in pain.

1080
00:45:38,275 --> 00:45:41,620
I am in pain. [laughs]

Welcome, ladies.

1087

Tonight, the top two
All Stars of the week

1088
00:46:00,827 --> 00:46:06,000
will each receive
two legendary Legend Stars,

1089
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,551
one to keep, and one
to give to a fellow queen.

1090
00:46:10,724 --> 00:46:13,344
I give to the needy,
not the greedy.

starting with Monét X Change.

1094
00:46:19,517 --> 00:46:20,689
Tweet, tweet.

1095
00:46:20,689 --> 00:46:22,103
I thought your speech
was really fun.

1096
00:46:22,103 --> 00:46:24,448
The football team spit roast
I could relate to.

00:46:25,448 --> 00:46:27,206
-Same.
-Thank you.

1099
00:46:27,206 --> 00:46:30,310
You just nailed the speech,
you made it so funny.

1100
00:46:30,310 --> 00:46:32,206
I was thoroughly impressed.

1101
00:46:32,206 --> 00:46:33,344
Thank you, Nikki.

1102
00:46:33,344 --> 00:46:35,724
This outfit is iconic.

1103
00:46:35,724 --> 00:46:37,344
Iconic.

1104
00:46:37,344 --> 00:46:38,482
Thank you, Ru.

1105
00:46:38,482 --> 00:46:40,655
It's really
beautifully constructed,

1106
00:46:40,655 --> 00:46:42,275
but it's very drag.
It's fun.

1107
00:46:42,275 --> 00:46:44,758
it's got a sense of humor
and a great sense of glamour,

1108
00:46:44,758 --> 00:46:46,931
and it's a great balance
of those two.

1109
00:46:46,931 --> 00:46:48,620
So I love this.

1110
00:46:48,620 --> 00:46:51,310
Up next, Shea Couleé.

1111
00:46:51,310 --> 00:46:55,241
The speech all about kind of how
popular you were was hilarious.

1112
00:46:55,241 --> 00:46:57,206
That comedy,
just matter of fact,

1113
00:46:57,206 --> 00:46:59,206
and then you move on,
always gets me.

1114
00:46:59,206 --> 00:47:02,172
You were so good and so relaxed
and comfortable.

1115
00:47:02,172 --> 00:47:04,965
It was really, really good.

1116
00:47:04,965 --> 00:47:09,586
This look, I think those layers
of accordion pleated silk

1117
00:47:09,586 --> 00:47:11,655
are so gorgeous.

1118
00:47:11,655 --> 00:47:13,965
I wanted to wear this as
a love letter to my grandmother,

1119
00:47:13,965 --> 00:47:16,000
because some
of my fondest memories

1120
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,551
were her walking around her
garden, cultivating the earth.

1121
00:47:19,551 --> 00:47:21,448
That explains everything.

1122
00:47:21,448 --> 00:47:24,103
-You look so stunning.
-Thank you.

1123
00:47:24,103 --> 00:47:27,103
Up next, it's Trinity the Tuck.

1124
00:47:27,103 --> 00:47:30,931
I'm so excited how well
you nailed that phonics joke.

1125
00:47:30,931 --> 00:47:32,586
That was an advanced
performance of comedy

1126
00:47:32,586 --> 00:47:34,034
that I want you to know
you nailed.

1127
00:47:34,034 --> 00:47:36,482
And I did appreciate
that you had

1128
00:47:36,482 --> 00:47:38,793
a heartfelt vulnerable moment
in there as well.

1129
00:47:38,793 --> 00:47:40,275
I thought you did
a very good job.

1130
00:47:40,275 --> 00:47:42,551
This look, you have never
looked more gorgeous.

1131
00:47:42,551 --> 00:47:45,689
It's like Evita dressed for,
like, a funeral or something.

1132
00:47:45,689 --> 00:47:47,172
So fun.

1133
00:47:47,172 --> 00:47:49,448
I don't know how many cases
you took to get here,

1134
00:47:49,448 --> 00:47:50,689
but they were all
filled with trains.

1135
00:47:50,689 --> 00:47:51,896
I would like to say

1136
00:47:51,896 --> 00:47:53,586
that the girls
have changed my name

1137
00:47:53,586 --> 00:47:55,034
to Trinity the Train.

1138
00:47:55,034 --> 00:47:58,551
Yes.
[all laugh]

1139
00:47:58,551 --> 00:48:01,793
I promise, this is the last
big train thing.

1140
00:48:01,793 --> 00:48:03,068
No, keep it coming.

1141
00:48:03,068 --> 00:48:04,931
You are such a star.

1142
00:48:04,931 --> 00:48:06,275
-Thank you, Trinity.
-Thank you.

1143
00:48:06,275 --> 00:48:08,586
Up next, it's Raja Gemini.

1144
00:48:08,586 --> 00:48:12,448
Our soothsayer, coming out
in this celestial garb.

1145
00:48:12,448 --> 00:48:14,000
I think my favorite line
in the whole thing was,

1146
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:15,379
"We're all gonna die."

1147
00:48:15,379 --> 00:48:18,275
[all laugh]
Well...

1148
00:48:18,275 --> 00:48:20,172
And your speech
was such a great departure

1149
00:48:20,172 --> 00:48:22,137
from the tone
that had already been set.

1150
00:48:22,137 --> 00:48:23,551
It was just,
like, this character

1151
00:48:23,551 --> 00:48:25,344
that was, like, made things
light and fun and weird.

1152
00:48:25,344 --> 00:48:26,448
I felt like
I was talking to someone

1153
00:48:26,448 --> 00:48:27,344
who was describing
a mushroom trip.

1154
00:48:27,344 --> 00:48:29,137
[all laugh]

1155
00:48:29,137 --> 00:48:31,655
This look, I mean, I swear
I've seen this in a magazine.

1156
00:48:31,655 --> 00:48:33,620
[laughs]

1157
00:48:33,620 --> 00:48:34,896
The details on this,

1158
00:48:34,896 --> 00:48:37,827
even the masthead
of the magazine name.

1159
00:48:37,827 --> 00:48:40,793
-"Voile" is French for "veil."
-Right.

1160
00:48:40,793 --> 00:48:42,620
Add points.
Go ahead and add points.

1161
00:48:42,620 --> 00:48:44,827
[all laugh]

1162
00:48:44,827 --> 00:48:46,551
We'll see what we can do.

1163
00:48:46,551 --> 00:48:48,344
Jaida Essence Hall.

1164
00:48:48,344 --> 00:48:50,689
-Hey!
-She's in there.

1165
00:48:50,689 --> 00:48:52,000
I think my favorite line was,

1166
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,103
"I'm so proud of me,
as you all are today."

1167
00:48:54,103 --> 00:48:56,965
[all laugh]

1168
00:48:56,965 --> 00:48:58,379
Your use of "bitch" throughout,

1169
00:48:58,379 --> 00:49:00,896
it really is overused
a lot of times in comedy.

1170
00:49:00,896 --> 00:49:02,724
You used it so perfectly

1171
00:49:02,724 --> 00:49:03,758
that I didn't look at it
as a device.

1172
00:49:03,758 --> 00:49:05,103
And you got personal, too,

1173
00:49:05,103 --> 00:49:06,344
and I'm glad you went there.

1174
00:49:06,344 --> 00:49:08,620
Tonight you are
definitely veilded.

1175
00:49:08,620 --> 00:49:11,172
I love the Spanishness of it.

1176
00:49:11,172 --> 00:49:14,517
The dotted mesh is so pretty
and so kind of current and now.

1177
00:49:14,517 --> 00:49:15,827
I love that I can't see you

1178
00:49:15,827 --> 00:49:17,517
and that I had to, like,
go, I wanna know more.

1179
00:49:17,517 --> 00:49:20,310
Like a lingerie burqa,
and I liked it.

1180
00:49:20,310 --> 00:49:22,862
[all laugh]

1181
00:49:22,862 --> 00:49:25,413
Up next, it's Yvie Oddly.
Ooh, look at that leg.

1182
00:49:25,413 --> 00:49:27,620
This look is fantastic.

1183
00:49:27,620 --> 00:49:29,241
It's glamorous, it's sparkly.

1184
00:49:29,241 --> 00:49:32,758
You're giving us Angelina Oddly
with the exposed leg.

1185
00:49:32,758 --> 00:49:35,758
All of that beading
on that kind of Aztec motif,

1186
00:49:35,758 --> 00:49:37,758
so chic, so fabulous.

1187
00:49:37,758 --> 00:49:40,793
Your speech, you did
a pratfall, which I appreciate.

1188
00:49:40,793 --> 00:49:42,172
You got up
and you left the cards,

1189
00:49:42,172 --> 00:49:43,620
so you did the whole thing
without cards.

1190
00:49:43,620 --> 00:49:45,827
That's an extra,
like, good job for that.

1191
00:49:45,827 --> 00:49:48,275
Your speech
struck a chord with me,

1192
00:49:48,275 --> 00:49:52,000
because I have failed
way more than I have succeeded.

1193
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,068
But that's what brought me
here today.

1194
00:49:54,068 --> 00:49:56,758
I'm gonna keep failing my way
towards your position.

1195
00:49:56,758 --> 00:49:58,758
[all laugh]

1196
00:49:58,758 --> 00:50:02,068
Up next, it's Jinkx Monsoon.

1197
00:50:02,068 --> 00:50:03,965
Who said that?

1198
00:50:03,965 --> 00:50:05,241
[all laugh]

1199
00:50:05,241 --> 00:50:06,862
This look veiled it, oh!

1200
00:50:06,862 --> 00:50:08,586
This is so beautiful.

1201
00:50:08,586 --> 00:50:12,655
You've got a garden
growing out of your body.

1202
00:50:12,655 --> 00:50:15,241
And that butterfly illusion
of them holding up your veil,

1203
00:50:15,241 --> 00:50:16,896
it's magic and enchanted.

1204
00:50:16,896 --> 00:50:18,655
This is just a gorgeous look.

1205
00:50:18,655 --> 00:50:20,310
Your character
in the drag-uation speech

1206
00:50:20,310 --> 00:50:21,413
was hilarious.

1207
00:50:21,413 --> 00:50:23,000
You started out
the wrong school,

1208
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,034
it was just funny and smart,
and the way Jinkx does things.

1209
00:50:26,034 --> 00:50:27,793
I'm so grateful
you told that story,

1210
00:50:27,793 --> 00:50:30,655
because it not only literally
struck me like the car,

1211
00:50:30,655 --> 00:50:33,103
but it, like,
figuratively, I get it.

1212
00:50:33,103 --> 00:50:34,310
Like, that's
an important message,

1213
00:50:34,310 --> 00:50:35,931
and it was very clear,
so great job.

1214
00:50:35,931 --> 00:50:40,172
Now, this may be
a good opportunity to tell you

1215
00:50:40,172 --> 00:50:43,448
that that was probably me
behind the wheel of that car.

1216
00:50:43,448 --> 00:50:46,517
[all laugh]

1217
00:50:48,827 --> 00:50:51,827
Up next, The Vivienne.

1218
00:50:51,827 --> 00:50:54,448
The Vivienne, your graduation
speech, it wasn't over the top.

1219
00:50:54,448 --> 00:50:57,310
You didn't, like, ruin
the bit by being too sloppy.

1220
00:50:57,310 --> 00:50:58,758
You're a great comedic actress.

1221
00:50:58,758 --> 00:51:00,275
And you spent the entire time
in character.

1222
00:51:00,275 --> 00:51:02,413
Even when the other queens
were giving their speeches,

1223
00:51:02,413 --> 00:51:03,689
you were back in your chair

1224
00:51:03,689 --> 00:51:06,068
with your sunglasses on
and your martini glass.

1225
00:51:06,068 --> 00:51:09,068
This look tonight,
I loved the ball gag,

1226
00:51:09,068 --> 00:51:12,103
I love the bondage,
I love the color you chose.

1227
00:51:12,103 --> 00:51:13,655
This look, I just love.

1228
00:51:13,655 --> 00:51:16,758
You were like Ariel caught
in a fishnet, and I loved it.

1229
00:51:16,758 --> 00:51:19,241
Thank you, ladies.
I think we've heard enough.

1230
00:51:19,241 --> 00:51:22,482
Before you untuck
in the werkroom,

1231
00:51:22,482 --> 00:51:25,172
there's someone
I want you to meet.

1232
00:51:26,965 --> 00:51:30,689
Please give a warm
Drag Racewelcome

1233
00:51:30,689 --> 00:51:33,517
to the Speaker of the House,
Nancy Pelosi.

1234
00:51:33,517 --> 00:51:36,551
[cheers and applause]

1235
00:51:39,827 --> 00:51:41,310
Welcome back.

1236
00:51:41,310 --> 00:51:43,068
It's my honor to be here

1237
00:51:43,068 --> 00:51:47,275
to say to all of you
how proud we all are of you.

1238
00:51:47,275 --> 00:51:51,137
Thank you for the joy and beauty
you bring to the world.

1239
00:51:51,137 --> 00:51:52,758
Aw!

1240
00:51:52,758 --> 00:51:55,068
Your freedom of expression
of yourselves in drag

1241
00:51:55,068 --> 00:51:57,172
is what America is all about.

1242
00:51:57,172 --> 00:52:00,758
I say that all the time
to my friends in drag.

1243
00:52:00,758 --> 00:52:03,896
[laughter and applause]

1244
00:52:03,896 --> 00:52:05,724
Now, Speaker Pelosi,

1245
00:52:05,724 --> 00:52:08,586
with all the challenges
facing our nation,

1246
00:52:08,586 --> 00:52:12,068
what words of wisdom
do you have for us?

1247
00:52:12,068 --> 00:52:15,034
Well, the single most important
thing I can say is to vote.

1248
00:52:15,034 --> 00:52:16,931
With the midterm elections
coming up,

1249
00:52:16,931 --> 00:52:19,862
it's very important
for people to make their voices

1250
00:52:19,862 --> 00:52:21,586
and their vote heard.

1251
00:52:21,586 --> 00:52:25,000
Well, thank you so much
for the work you've done

1252
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:29,103
and the work you continue to do
tirelessly for our freedom.

1253
00:52:29,103 --> 00:52:33,103
Your tenacity is something
that we all look up to.

1254
00:52:33,103 --> 00:52:36,241
We throw the word "master class"
around here all the time,

1255
00:52:36,241 --> 00:52:40,793
but that sarcastic, shady clap
you do was fucking epic.

1256
00:52:40,793 --> 00:52:42,620
It was completely unintentional.

1257
00:52:42,620 --> 00:52:45,862
[all laugh]

1258
00:52:45,862 --> 00:52:49,241
We have prayers in our hearts
to keep you strong.

1259
00:52:49,241 --> 00:52:50,379
Well, thank you for that.

1260
00:52:50,379 --> 00:52:52,172
May God bless America.

1261
00:52:52,172 --> 00:52:54,068
Can I get an "amen?"

1262
00:52:54,068 --> 00:52:56,620
-Amen!
-Amen!

1263
00:52:56,620 --> 00:52:58,931
Thank you, Madam Speaker!

1264
00:52:58,931 --> 00:53:01,620
[applause]

1265
00:53:01,620 --> 00:53:03,965
All right, now, just between
us squirrel friends,

1266
00:53:03,965 --> 00:53:07,793
who are the queens you were most
passionate about this week?

1267
00:53:07,793 --> 00:53:11,068
Shea Couleé blew me away
with the graduation speech.

1268
00:53:11,068 --> 00:53:14,068
So funny, so confident,
so many great jokes.

1269
00:53:14,068 --> 00:53:17,862
I was popular then,
and I'm popular now.

1270
00:53:17,862 --> 00:53:20,000
And the way she did it
was so calm and cool,

1271
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,379
I felt totally safe and
totally at ease watching her.

1272
00:53:23,379 --> 00:53:24,758
Her runway look tonight,

1273
00:53:24,758 --> 00:53:26,310
with all the layers
of the accordion pleating,

1274
00:53:26,310 --> 00:53:29,310
I thought it was really fun,
really fashion, really chic.

1275
00:53:29,310 --> 00:53:30,931
You know,
when I watched The Viv,

1276
00:53:30,931 --> 00:53:32,896
I was sold from
the second she got out there,

1277
00:53:32,896 --> 00:53:34,586
and I just thought it was so
different than everyone else's.

1278
00:53:34,586 --> 00:53:36,586
When she said she was gonna do
a drunk character

1279
00:53:36,586 --> 00:53:37,827
for the entire bit,

1280
00:53:37,827 --> 00:53:39,413
I think we were both
kind of like, ooh,

1281
00:53:39,413 --> 00:53:41,793
it could just be, like, cloying
or something, and not play.

1282
00:53:41,793 --> 00:53:43,655
But it all worked.

1283
00:53:43,655 --> 00:53:45,034
I didn't take one note

1284
00:53:45,034 --> 00:53:47,034
because I was so engrossed
in her performance.

1285
00:53:47,034 --> 00:53:49,758
I wanted more.
It was that good.

1286
00:53:49,758 --> 00:53:52,344
Cheers.
[all laugh]

1287
00:53:52,344 --> 00:53:53,862
But her runway look,

1288
00:53:53,862 --> 00:53:56,965
I loved the juxtaposition
of that beautiful blue

1289
00:53:56,965 --> 00:53:58,758
and the S&M kind of feel.

1290
00:53:58,758 --> 00:54:00,034
She looked spectacular.

1291
00:54:00,034 --> 00:54:02,482
Really, you talk
about veiled it.

1292
00:54:02,482 --> 00:54:06,344
Jinkx has come a very long way
with her fashions, as we know.

1293
00:54:06,344 --> 00:54:09,793
The illusion of the monarchs
holding up the veil in the back,

1294
00:54:09,793 --> 00:54:12,551
the way that beautiful
lavender gown fit her,

1295
00:54:12,551 --> 00:54:14,965
it was just so stunning.

1296
00:54:14,965 --> 00:54:17,931
And her speech was
so wonderfully executed.

1297
00:54:17,931 --> 00:54:19,551
To the graduating class

1298
00:54:19,551 --> 00:54:22,586
of whatever year you're
watching this on YouTube.

1299
00:54:22,586 --> 00:54:25,379
There were jokes,
there was poignancy,

1300
00:54:25,379 --> 00:54:28,896
she brought light to trauma
while still addressing trauma.

1301
00:54:28,896 --> 00:54:30,724
That's not an easy thing to do.

1302
00:54:30,724 --> 00:54:33,827
We were just in it with her.
It was so effective.

1303
00:54:33,827 --> 00:54:35,241
And what great wisdom.

1304
00:54:35,241 --> 00:54:36,896
That's a home run for me.

1305
00:54:36,896 --> 00:54:38,896
I hate to use
a football reference.

1306
00:54:38,896 --> 00:54:42,379
This was also such
a strong night for Raja.

1307
00:54:42,379 --> 00:54:44,103
Yes, and I love
that she approached it

1308
00:54:44,103 --> 00:54:45,586
so differently
from everybody else.

1309
00:54:45,586 --> 00:54:47,448
We're all gonna die.

1310
00:54:47,448 --> 00:54:48,862
[all laugh]

1311
00:54:48,862 --> 00:54:50,344
And it was just very funny,

1312
00:54:50,344 --> 00:54:52,586
and it was layers
upon layers of jokes.

1313
00:54:52,586 --> 00:54:55,344
One of the best performances
of the night by far.

1314
00:54:55,344 --> 00:54:58,103
And then the magazine look,
I'll never forget it.

1315
00:54:58,103 --> 00:55:00,965
It really honestly,
like, made me jaw drop.

1316
00:55:00,965 --> 00:55:04,344
There's nothing more perfect for
her than what she did tonight.

1317
00:55:04,344 --> 00:55:06,448
It was glamorous,
it was cheeky, it was smart.

1318
00:55:06,448 --> 00:55:08,620
It was what drag's
supposed to be.

1319
00:55:08,620 --> 00:55:10,827
I'm just so impressed
with all of these--

1320
00:55:10,827 --> 00:55:12,379
I'm not gonna call them kids,
they're people.

1321
00:55:12,379 --> 00:55:14,517
But, God, they know
what they're talking about.

1322
00:55:14,517 --> 00:55:18,137
Silence.
I've made my decision.

1323
00:55:18,137 --> 00:55:20,931
Bring back my Legends.

1324
00:55:20,931 --> 00:55:22,931
Welcome back, ladies.

1325
00:55:22,931 --> 00:55:25,551
Based on your
drag-uation speeches

1326
00:55:25,551 --> 00:55:29,896
and your veiled
runway presentations,

1327
00:55:29,896 --> 00:55:31,551
I've made some decisions.

1328
00:55:31,551 --> 00:55:34,758
The top two All Stars
of the week are...

1329
00:55:40,413 --> 00:55:41,862
Jinkx Monsoon...

1330
00:55:43,103 --> 00:55:44,137
and Raja.

1331
00:55:44,137 --> 00:55:46,448
[applause]

1332
00:55:46,448 --> 00:55:50,379
I am elated. [laughs]

1333
00:55:50,379 --> 00:55:51,758
Con-drag-ulations.

1334
00:55:51,758 --> 00:55:57,896
You've each earned
two legendary Legend Stars,

1335
00:55:57,896 --> 00:56:02,758
one to keep
and one star to give away.

1336
00:56:02,758 --> 00:56:07,206
Jinkx and Raja,
all of the other six queens

1337
00:56:07,206 --> 00:56:12,517
are eligible to receive
your legendary Legend Star.

1338
00:56:12,517 --> 00:56:16,448
Think carefully,
and you will gift your stars

1339
00:56:16,448 --> 00:56:19,206
at the beginning of next week.

1340
00:56:19,206 --> 00:56:20,724
-Oh.
-Oh.

1341
00:56:20,724 --> 00:56:22,517
So y'all better act right.

1342
00:56:22,517 --> 00:56:23,689
[all laugh]

1343
00:56:23,689 --> 00:56:26,689
Ladies, the rest of you
may take a seat.

1344
00:56:31,896 --> 00:56:34,896
Two legends stand before me.

1345
00:56:36,482 --> 00:56:39,896
Jinkx, Raja,

1346
00:56:39,896 --> 00:56:42,310
this is your chance
to impress me,

1347
00:56:42,310 --> 00:56:44,241
win $10,000,

1348
00:56:44,241 --> 00:56:46,482
and earn the power

1349
00:56:46,482 --> 00:56:50,724
to block
one of your fellow queens

1350
00:56:50,724 --> 00:56:54,379
from receiving a legendary
Legend Star next week.

1351
00:56:57,413 --> 00:56:59,793
The time has come...
[thunder]

1352
00:56:59,793 --> 00:57:01,482
for you to lip sync...

1353
00:57:01,482 --> 00:57:06,000
[echoing] for your legacy!

1354
00:57:08,103 --> 00:57:14,000
Good luck,
and don't fuck it up.

1355
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:18,034

Jinkx Monsoon,
