CANADA VS THE WORLD S02E00 MTQ (2024)
Transcript
00:00I'm back, bitches.
00:12How do you spell Icon?
00:14A-L-E-X-I-S.
00:15If you don't know my name, you don't know nothing.
00:21My name is Alexis Mateo, originally from Puerto Rico, living in Las Vegas, representing United
00:26States of America, and the crowd goes wild.
00:32In this corner, we got Canada.
00:34In this corner, we got the world, and in the center, my earring.
00:41And in the center, Alexis Mateo.
00:45I was in season three of RuPaul's Drag Race, All Stars 1, All Stars 5.
00:49If you want drama, you came to the right place, because I'm going to give it to you.
00:53If I don't like you, you're going to know.
00:56I can't communicate in any language.
00:59I'm not here to play games.
01:01I'm going to do whatever it takes to get that crown in my head, baby.
01:05I'm here to smash the competition, bring them down, make them suffer, make them sweat, and
01:12finally finish the competition.
01:16I am representing America, I'm representing the world, and I'm representing my community
01:21of Latin America, including my beautiful Puerto Rico.
01:25Ah, I'm back on the Canadian side against the world, and I'm super, super excited.
01:32Let's go to the fight.
01:37Cheryl, back on Drag Race.
01:39Here we go again, chapter three, ding, ding, ding.
01:43I'm Cheryl.
01:44You know me from Drag Race UK season one, and UK versus the world season one.
01:50The UK has failed this diva, so thank God I got a passport, because here I am in Canada.
01:56I'm here to represent the past, the present, and the future of British drag.
02:02And that's me, Chesie.
02:05Cheryl is everything quintessentially British.
02:07A dry sense of humor, a silly tit in a wig, and a glamorous fashionista.
02:12See me down Bond Street.
02:13Deuce.
02:15The Cheryl fantasy is...
02:19I don't actually know what the Cheryl fantasy is.
02:24People may underestimate me in these competitions because I haven't won a challenge ever,
02:29but it's my moment.
02:31I've trained for years for this.
02:33These crews will think they're the front runners, and bam, bam, Chesie's coming through, swimming.
02:39Doggy paddle.
02:40I don't know what I say a lot of the time.
02:44That crown, it's going back to Essex.
02:47I'm the full package.
02:48You just haven't seen everything yet, so you better watch out.
02:56Oh, honey, look, Eureka, you found it.
03:00Take ten, four, three, two, one.
03:05Y'all can't take me nowhere.
03:08I'm Eureka.
03:09I come from the US franchise of RuPaul's Drag Race.
03:12Season nine, hurt herself, came back to season ten.
03:15Finale, all-star six.
03:16Finale.
03:19They say fool me once, shame on you.
03:22Fool me twice, shame on you.
03:24Fool me three times, shame on me.
03:25So I came to Canada, and I'm going to take the crown here.
03:29I think my strength is my ability to push through in a world where when you're different
03:34or a bigger person or trans or whatever, like you got to figure out how to push through
03:38in any moment.
03:39You know, I'm six foot four, over 400 pounds.
03:42Miss Thing, I give you body, I give you looks, I give you fierceness, makeup, the mug, all
03:46the above.
03:47Y'all ain't never seen Paul Bunyan in drag until today.
03:49Baby, if you got a body, put a suit on it.
03:53I didn't come here premeditating anything.
03:55I've come here to be myself, do this for myself.
04:00I feel like if I'm going to win this round, it's going to be because I did it my way,
04:03and I did it for myself.
04:05The other queens should be intimidated because I'll feed five foes, f*** them up.
04:09Run, motherf***er, run.
04:12You seen boobies crush cans?
04:14I'm going to crush drag queen heads.
04:17Take three.
04:19Lord, help us.
04:23Hello, world.
04:24I'm Kennedy Davenport.
04:26I am the dancing diva of Texas.
04:28No, I'm the dancing diva of the world, boo.
04:32You might know me from RuPaul's Drag Race Season 7 and All Stars 3.
04:39I was a lovely old first runner-up, but I'm not leaving Canada without this crown, baby.
04:47My drag is tangible.
04:49You can feel it.
04:50You can touch it.
04:51You can even smell it.
04:53You can just take it all in, you know.
04:56I'm hoping to show more of Kennedy Davenport, show a little bit more compassion, a little
05:01bit more growth, a little bit more fierceness, because I'm what?
05:07Sickening.
05:12My actions speak louder than my words, and I have been acting for 28 years.
05:19I am ready for my reward.
05:21I'm running all the way to the bank, baby.
05:23Where is the crown?
05:25Let's go, because I'm taking over the world, honey.
05:28Not only am I going to crush the competition, I'm going to make wine.
05:35That is so stupid.
05:38France has landed in Canada.
05:40Get the champagne.
05:42We have a party.
05:43Hi, I'm Laka Henna, and I'm from Paris, France.
05:48You wish you could.
05:49I'm from Season 1 of Drag Race France.
05:53People know me from lighting myself on fire in the workroom, and it was pretty iconic.
05:58I might have gone first, but look at me now.
06:01I'm here.
06:02Where are the others?
06:03Home.
06:05I'm here to eat poutine.
06:07I'm just here to cry on Gosling.
06:09I'm here to show my new pussy.
06:12I'm here to prove that I can lip sync.
06:17Because the first time around, it wasn't that great.
06:20Drag to me, it's just being yourself.
06:22Drag is fun.
06:23Drag is here to make you laugh, to make you feel better about yourself, and to empower you.
06:27Go home with it.
06:29My drag in one word would be honestly stupid.
06:32Yeah, stupid.
06:33Like you get the picture of me in the dictionary with stupid.
06:38I'm here representing France and Tunisia, and they deserve to be seen.
06:42And look, here I am.
06:45I know I look mean, but I promise I'm really nice.
06:51I can't wait to bring that crown home to France.
06:54It's Canada versus the world, and France is in the house.
06:58Oh, I dropped the nail.
07:05I'm LePhil, and I'm from Drag Race UK season four.
07:09People know me because I always bring the fashion, the look, and a high concept to the runway.
07:14I am haute couture, maybe hot couture, actually.
07:17I'm very hot.
07:18And now I'm bringing that to Canada.
07:20LePhil travels overseas.
07:22Yay.
07:23My drag is androgynous, Asian, sensational, A-A-S-S, the OG one, of course.
07:31I'm all about gender bending, because you know what?
07:33Gender's dead.
07:34And I'm here to show you all that gorgeous stuff in between.
07:39I'm here to take the crown, and you know what?
07:41You know us Brits.
07:42We love a crown, and we love a coronation.
07:44Put it on my head.
07:46My strategy is just to be a really nice PC boy.
07:50Because I'm the BBC with a fresh POV.
07:53And by BBC, I mean a British-born Chinese, not the other one, obviously.
07:57People think I'm quiet, but secretly, I'm just listening and judging.
08:03I'm representing all my fellow artists from the UK,
08:06and I'm also here to represent my androgynous Asian community,
08:09because together we're a huge global family, and I'm here to represent.
08:14I've got dead strong thighs that could crush someone's neck.
08:17I'm back, back, back again, bitch.
08:21People know me from season one of Canada's Drag Race,
08:24and RuPaul's Drag Race, UK, Versus the World, season one.
08:27I went out first, but I am back with my lemons to make lemonade.
08:31I have come to save the Canadian reputation on Versus the World, baby.
08:35No more first outs, okay?
08:37We're taking it all the way to the end.
08:39I have grown.
08:40I have glown up.
08:41I have been a part of the world.
08:43I have been a part of the world.
08:44I have grown.
08:45I have glown up, and bitch, my drag is now flawless.
08:49When you see my runways, you're gonna say,
08:50wow, she's five, six, seven, eight up.
08:54I am a sickening performer.
08:55I can do it all.
08:56I'm a comedian.
08:57I'm a dancer.
08:57I'm a rapstress.
08:59And I'm about to come through this competition, honey.
09:05Can't move in this corset.
09:08I am coming into this competition very confident,
09:10because I know what I can do, and I know that this is my time.
09:14You know, honestly, I just don't really like drama.
09:17I love it.
09:19It's great to have all of these international queens,
09:21but at the end of the day, it's Canada versus the world.
09:24I am ready to show the world what Canada can do.
09:28Bitch, I'm here to keep the crown in Canada, period.
09:32Let the smackdown begin.
09:36I'm back.
09:41I wrote my name wrong.
09:45My name is Miss Fiercealicious,
09:46and I'm from the land of the true north strong and fierce,
09:49Canada.
09:51I'm not only representing Canada,
09:52but my backgrounds as well, Cape Verde and Romania.
09:56You know me from season three of Canada's Drag Race,
09:58and I'm back to break the fourth place curse.
10:01I've grown a lot since my season.
10:03I was kind of a bitch on season three,
10:05and now I'm a bigger bitch.
10:08I'm best known for being the only queen in her street
10:10to have their own sabotage montage.
10:12And my goal this season is to get another one.
10:17The other queens should definitely be afraid of me
10:20because I have no weaknesses.
10:23Competing this time will be very different
10:25because I was up against some dumpy-looking queens
10:27on my season.
10:28But this time, I'll be up against dumpy-looking queens
10:31from around the world.
10:36Got my gut side.
10:39I'm not really known for drama,
10:40but if it comes my way,
10:43I will try my best to avoid it
10:44because I really don't like getting involved in that.
10:47It's not for me.
10:48And scene.
10:49I'm coming for those bitches.
10:51Honey, I'm ready.
10:53Tainomi is back to slay the Boots house down
10:56because she is what?
10:58A performer.
10:59Period.
11:03I'm Tainomi Banks.
11:03I was on Canada's Drag Race season one.
11:06Long time ago.
11:08Season one, maybe wasn't the best,
11:10but right now, I'm a whole new queen.
11:12I'm a glamazon.
11:13I dance, sing.
11:15I didn't know I was funny,
11:16but I'm very, very, very funny.
11:17So I'm ready to show that to the world.
11:19Today, she's giving you snatched to the gods.
11:23People know me for not tucking.
11:24Oh, excuse me.
11:24Sorry, wrong queen.
11:25Not padding.
11:26I have some nice Jamaican booty up in here.
11:28Some oxtail gourd rice and chicken up in this bitch, okay?
11:33That's what they know me for.
11:35I wanna let you guys know that Tainomi Banks is dead, girl.
11:38She's no more.
11:39My last season, I was crying all the time.
11:41Not this time.
11:41Tainomi 2.0, she's here for the crown.
11:44It's my time to shine.
11:46If you have to lip sync against Tainomi Banks,
11:50bye, babe.
11:51And I won't be saying sorry.
11:52You know what bothers me?
11:53Everyone thinks just Canada's nice
11:55and you can just push us over
11:55and we're just saying sorry all the time.
11:57No, we're saying sorry because we're gonna make you cry.
11:59We're gonna take that crown and run, all right?
12:02I'm here to finish them.
12:09I'm here to finish them.
