01:56I get to show what a provincial drag is
02:00I get to you know, visit, um different parts of the philippines
02:15The
02:39It's an art form so
02:45Depends
02:48It's an art form so everyone can do drag
02:53Regardless of your gender identity
02:59Drag is for everyone
03:02Yes
03:14Drag
03:42So that was probably
03:4520
03:472010
03:502009

04:46Monday
04:48Memorize
04:50Classroom
04:52So
04:54Memorize
04:56So
04:58Start
05:00Like this
05:02Um
05:04Um
05:06Imagination
05:08Yes
05:10School
05:12Lip-sync
05:14Bloom
05:16Bloom
05:18Yes
05:20Fully realized
05:22Probably
05:24that
05:26There's
05:28So
05:30Lip-sync
05:32Lip-sync
05:34Lip-sync
05:36Lip-sync
05:38Lip-sync
05:40in drag, because it was just a dream of mine before
05:44and now I'm slowly achieving it
05:46At least, right?
05:48You have to start small and then dream big
05:52so you can really achieve your dreams
05:55and then eventually you joined Drag Den Season 2
05:59What was your motivation when you joined Drag Den Season 2?
06:05My motivation...
06:08I don't know
06:11I just wanted to try competing
06:17because I used to compete before
06:19but it was only in school
06:21and it wasn't something that...
06:25But I won, to be honest
06:27I don't have a competition that I lost to
06:30except in the drag cartel
06:33in the final
06:34But I said, I'll try to audition
06:37I won't lose if I try
06:39If I don't get it, I'll be like, oh, dead man
06:41The show in Baguio will still go on
06:44But if I get it, at least I'll be able to introduce Baguio drag
06:48in the Philippines
06:50where we can also compete with the Manila Queens
06:54where we're also good, where we can also compete
06:57Why is it so important to you, Deja,
06:59to put the drag of the provincial queens in Baguio
07:04on the map
07:06and to show the viewers that we can do it too
07:09not just the Manila Queens
07:11Yes
07:12But it started from being a fetish
07:16I auditioned before in an online competition
07:22I put in a lot of effort
07:25It's video-based
07:26The video I made is like a music video
07:29There are transitions, lights
07:31It's a full production
07:33I didn't get it
07:35The ones I got were mostly Manila Queens
07:39I wasn't frustrated
07:41But I was like, oh, I get it
07:46After that, I wanted to push the provincial, regional queens
07:56I wanted to show people that we're good
08:00We put in a lot of effort
08:02We're not just exposed to the mainstream here in Manila
08:06but we can also make a difference
08:08But what do you think now, Deja?
08:10Because for me, personally,
08:12you were stumped
08:14that you can't underestimate the provincial queens
08:19Yes
08:20So now, Deja, do you think you've achieved the status
08:24that provincial queens can really make a difference?
08:26Yes, super
08:28That's why I'm super happy for my drag sisters
08:34who are in the competition
08:38Drag Race, Drag Band
08:40They're getting people from the province
08:44They're not just filler queens
08:48You can really see their drag
08:51They're real
08:53They're there
08:54Yes, I'm super happy
08:56Me and Moy, we made it to the top 3
09:01Two provincial girls in the finalists
09:04So I'm super happy
09:05You really proved it
09:07Yes
09:08And eventually, you became the drag supreme of season 2 of Drag Death
09:14What was running through your mind when you were crowned that time?
09:19So many
09:21How can I start?
09:23First,
09:27Well, if you've watched the season
09:30For a few months, I was holding on to the thought
09:37that I wouldn't win
09:40So, I don't know
09:41It's just my inner saboteur telling me that I'm not good enough
09:44But when they called my name,
09:49it was like a flashback of everything we've been through in Baguio
09:55Because drag there in Baguio is flourishing
10:00But it's not that well-known yet
10:03So we really need to work hard
10:06We really need to work hard
10:10But it was like a flashback of everything
10:14I just cried
10:16Shit, oh my god, what now?
10:18Is this real?
10:20It was a mixed emotion
10:22But forever grateful
10:25Yes
10:26And of course, you won
10:28Some people rooted for you
10:31And of course, that's part of the competition
10:34We also have audiences
10:37They have different bets
10:39Let's just say it like that
10:40What did you feel
10:43when you saw those comments
10:45that they were rooting for someone else
10:47and not you?
10:49Deadmau5 in the bushes
10:51Because they can't do anything
10:53Yes, it's all up to me
10:55It's all up to me
10:56What will you get from me?
10:58No
10:59Deadmau5
11:00But no, it's not easy
11:04Because as a baby queen
11:07I'm not used to that kind of attention
11:09So my friends' advice helped me
11:16Don't look at the comments
11:18You're an artist, Deadmau5
11:20Do you think the artists look at the comments?
11:23No, they ignore it
11:25So I was like, yes
11:27But at night, I still look at it
11:31I don't look at it
11:32But maybe even if you look at it, you don't...
11:35Yes, I don't get hurt
11:37Because if you know me personally
11:44Right?
11:47And you're also the queens of the season
11:51You're also friends
11:53So they can't do anything about the comments
11:55And I get it because the competition is tough
11:58All competitions, right?
12:00We have our own bets
12:03Miss Universe, anything
12:05Drag Race, Drag Den, everything
12:07So it's okay
12:09You're the queen of the bashers
12:13And when you won in season 2 of Drag Den
12:16What changed in your life?
12:19What?
12:21Other than my bangs getting thinner
12:26How fat were you?
12:28Like this
12:31I'm kidding
12:33But what changed?
12:36A lot
12:38I got to know a lot of people
12:40I got to recognize a lot of people
12:42A lot of comments
12:46You inspired me
12:49I'm very thankful
12:51That's all
12:52I'm very happy
12:54Forever grateful
12:56A lot of things changed in my life
12:58I was able to give back to my family
13:03So, right?
13:05Love it for me
13:08What comes to your mind
13:10When you have those encounters with your fans
13:13That inspires you
13:15And then
13:17These are the things you dreamed of before
13:19And now, you're here
13:21At this point
13:23It's touching
13:25I'm not used to that kind of attention
13:28But
13:30To know that people
13:33You inspired people
13:35It's a big thing
13:37For us queer people
13:42I'm just happy
13:44I'm able to push what I'm doing
13:47I'm able to give meaning
13:49It's not just for fantasy
13:51You know what I mean?
13:53You can redefine
13:57And it has a purpose
13:59Yes, it has a purpose
14:01To wake up
14:03To wake up early
14:05To endure
14:07Headache
14:09Because you see people
14:11And they inspire you
14:13It's a big thing
14:15And eventually
14:17You'll have a contribution to them
14:19To reach their dreams
14:21And what advice can you give
14:23To those who are dreaming
14:25Especially since there are a lot of BB Queens
14:27This season
14:29What advice can you give to them
14:31When they're starting?
14:33Stop
14:35Stop that
14:37If I were you, stop
14:39Don't continue
14:41But
14:43It's good
14:47It's good that you're starting now
14:49It's good that
14:51At least somehow
14:53It's like a baby step
14:55It's not easy
14:59Also, don't compare yourself
15:01To other queens
15:03Because you'll just
15:05You'll just think
15:07Why me?
15:09Why this?
15:11Why that?
15:13Because there are a lot of BB Queens
15:15I mean, we're all different
15:17There are BB Queens who are already beautiful
15:19There are BB Queens who are just starting
15:21So it's like
15:23Always
15:25Do a baby step
15:27Little by little
15:29We all start small
15:31Anything
15:33In work
15:35It will apply to everyone
15:37So that's it
15:39Now that
15:41Drag is very popular
15:43We have two drag competitions
15:45In our country
15:47Drag Den and Drag Racing Eats
15:49So
15:51You can't avoid
15:53Comparison
15:55When you hear
15:57Or do you hear that often?
15:59Yes
16:01In your gigs or comments
16:03Until now, you still see that
16:05What do you feel or what can you say
16:07When there are people
16:09Who spark conversations
16:11That there's always a comparison
16:13What?
16:17No, but
16:19Aren't you happy?
16:21That there are two drag competitions
16:23In the Philippines to represent
16:25Queer artists like us
16:27It's like
16:29It's like a country's progress
16:31It's like
16:33We're slowly getting there
16:35Right?
16:37Just be happy
16:39That there are a lot of people
16:41Who are not ready yet
16:43So that's my advice
16:45And I hope
16:47You have a great meal
16:49With whoever you are
16:51There
16:53Because we have a lot of viewers
16:55Who are
16:57Passionate about these shows
16:59And the queens
17:01That they support
17:03That they don't realize their comments
17:05And these are real people competing
17:07Right?
17:09You're making the queens fight
17:11But we're all friends
17:13Regardless of the show
17:15Where we're from
17:17We're all friends
17:19So
17:21You're fighting
17:23You're fighting each other
17:25But you don't know
17:27The queens are stunned
17:29Girl, get a life
17:31There are a lot of people
17:33Who don't know
17:35You're all friends
17:37Like what JQ said
17:39Correct
17:41Do you have
17:43Backstage stories
17:45From Drag Dance Season 2
17:47That were not shown
17:49During the season?
17:51Yes, there are a lot
17:53At the hotel
17:55What do you remember?
17:57What can you share?
17:59We have a lot of bonding moments
18:01A lot of
18:03Fights
18:05There were fights
18:07That were not shown
18:09Maybe this is what I can say
18:11Because
18:13If you watched my season
18:15I didn't fight
18:17I was so nice
18:19So angelic
18:21But yeah
18:23I did fight
18:25But I didn't air it
18:27I didn't mention
18:29FIBA
18:31But I didn't air it
18:33I didn't fight
18:35Where's the camera?
18:37This is my fighting moment
18:39So it's not just angelic
18:41That was a bad air
18:43Yes, it was
18:45But the fight was so low
18:47I feel like dead
18:49Why do gays fight
18:51With this kind of attack?
18:53I feel like Elvira and Gene
18:55Got the air
18:57Because their air was so low
18:59But after winning
19:01Of course, it has a cash prize
19:03If it's okay to share
19:05What was your first thought?
19:07Or your first plan
19:09From winning the season?
19:11It's not okay to share
19:13Next question
19:15Okay, next question
19:17Plan
19:25I gave back to my family
19:27Of course
19:29For a while
19:31Then
19:33I moved
19:35I'm from Baguio
19:37So I moved to Manila
19:39To continue my career
19:41So there
19:43It's hard to move here
19:45When you don't have anything
19:47So you have to buy everything
19:49Start from scratch
19:51Yes
19:53Then
19:55It got better
19:57There
19:59It's your investment
20:01Because it's always facing people
20:03Let's see
20:05Let's focus
20:07There
20:09There
20:11That's the
20:13Monetized
20:15That's the drug supreme
20:17But how did you handle the fame?
20:19You mentioned earlier
20:21That you're not used to
20:23The attention from your season
20:25But
20:27Since then you won
20:29And a lot of people got to know you
20:31What changed?
20:33In terms of handling
20:35Fame
20:37What?
20:39Now I'm used to it
20:41It's not enough
20:43It's not enough
20:45No
20:47Before
20:49It's just new to me
20:51So I'm still adjusting
20:53I'm still adjusting
20:55So it's okay
20:57Let's add more clout
20:59So we can fight
21:01Online
21:03Do you have
21:05Wildest fan encounter
21:07Or unforgettable fan encounter
21:09Like the ones that disappear
21:11When you see them
21:13Or become emotional when you see them
21:15Those kind of scenes
21:17Yes, a lot
21:19Actually a lot
21:21I get emotional when the camera is not on
21:23I'm like, calm down
21:25I'm just here
21:27We won't leave
21:29Even if we're here for an hour
21:31And also
21:33I'm so
21:35Happy when
21:37I receive a gift
21:39Any gift
21:41Letters
21:43Things from fans
21:45Because you know
21:47The thought that
21:49People will be busy
21:51To prepare a gift
21:53For you
21:55It's a good feeling
21:57Especially the letters
21:59I read it
22:01I really keep it
22:03Since the airing of the show
22:05All the letters from fans
22:07It's in a box
22:09If I'm feeling down
22:11I just read it
22:13It helps you
22:15Yes
22:17I saw it on Instagram
22:19Because
22:21Most of the time
22:23Most of them are students
22:25So when they have exams
22:27They will chat
22:29Deja, if our exams are good luck
22:31I wish them good luck
22:33You can do it, study hard
22:35I have a fan
22:39She watched my show
22:41On QC
22:43She said, good luck to me
22:45I will have an exam
22:47For
22:49RN
22:51Right now
22:53She's a registered nurse now
22:55She passed
22:57Congrats to you
22:59You're so inspiring
23:01To these people
23:03You're helping them to achieve
23:05Their own dreams
23:07Those are your best experiences
23:09As a drag queen
23:11As a drag performer
23:13Top of mind
23:15The worst you experienced
23:21The worst
23:23We were scammed
23:25By Mrs. Tan
23:27What happened there?
23:29We did a show in Nueva Ecija
23:33After the show
23:35The producer didn't bring us back
23:37You finished the show
23:39Where were you?
23:41I named-dropped her
23:43I named-dropped her
23:47It was crazy
23:49It was a bad experience
23:51It was just a trans
23:53It was so hot
23:55We had a lot of stuff
23:57That's all she brought
23:59When we got there, they didn't bring us back
24:01Before you performed
24:03There were red flags
24:05Yes, there were
24:07I said, dead man
24:09There were a lot of people
24:11At least we'll be able to touch the part
24:13In Nueva Ecija
24:15The fans there
24:17That's how it was
24:19What was that like?
24:21After your show, Deja
24:23Nothing
24:25It was like you'll be back
24:27She didn't repent
24:29It was like she lost her mind
24:31You're crazy
24:33Whoever she is, you're crazy
24:35Oh my god
24:37I can name-drop
24:39If she really named-dropped me
24:41That's crazy
24:43I hope she won't be victimized
24:45I hope so
24:47She's been victimized a lot
24:49You know
24:51Drug fans
24:53Drug industry
24:55She's been victimized
24:57She's been in the heat of drugs
24:59Here in our country
25:01What's your favorite performance?
25:03Live singing
25:05Wow
25:07Tiny, tiny attack
25:09Tiny relaxation
25:11There's a lot
25:13On top of my mind
25:15Just artists
25:17I love
25:19Nikki
25:21Ariana, Lady Gaga
25:23Pop girl, pop girl dance
25:25That's your fantasy
25:27Pop star, pop star attack
25:29Movement, movement
25:31I can give a
25:33I don't like this
25:35A feeling
25:37Right?
25:39Just standing
25:41Then her emotions
25:43I can do that, it's just fantasy
25:45You perform a lot
25:47Ever since you're a dancer
25:49I'm just a mover
25:51I like to say I'm a mover
25:53I'm not a dancer
25:55I don't want to claim
25:57Because sometimes
25:59I get f'ed up
26:01That my steps are wrong
26:03When there's pressure
26:05But I'm just a mover
26:07When I was in grade 8
26:09I started dancing
26:11Lip sync
26:13My body got used to it
26:15Like that
26:17What are the
26:19Misconceptions about you?
26:21When they see you
26:23Do they think
26:25I'm like this?
26:27Have you experienced that?
26:29Yes, they think
26:31I'm so good
26:33But you're right
26:35I'm good
26:37They think I'm mean
26:39Because when I'm drunk
26:41It's intimidating
26:43They say that
26:45But I'm not that kind
26:49You're easy to get close
26:51But when you get to know me
26:53Maybe they just got used to it
26:55Maybe
26:59There
27:01If there's one makeup
27:03That you have to choose
27:05What is it?
27:07Just one
27:09From your makeup bag
27:11It's so hard to choose
27:13I can't choose 22
27:1522?
27:17One
27:19Are you okay
27:21If that's the only thing you have left?
27:23Lipstick
27:25Why?
27:27Because you can do contour
27:29Eyeliner, lipstick
27:31You can do it
27:33Lashes
27:35But your face will be brown
27:37You can do it
27:39At least you can do it
27:41What about the makeup
27:43If that's the only thing you have left
27:45It's so hard
27:47You can't do it
27:49You'll be challenged
27:51I don't know
27:53For example, lipstick
27:55It won't work if that's the only thing you have left
27:57What kind of makeup is that?
27:59If it's brown
28:01I feel like it's a highlighter
28:03If that's the only thing
28:05Not really
28:07Who do you look up to
28:09Among drag queens
28:11Up until now
28:13Philippines or international
28:15International
28:17Let's give one each
28:19My hair is so messy
28:25Fantasy
28:27You can edit that
28:29But
28:31International
28:33There's a lot
28:35It's Shea
28:37When it comes to international
28:39Love, love her so much
28:41I watched
28:43I watched her season
28:45All Stars
28:47Philippines
28:49Myself
28:51I look out to myself
28:53Not to the Philippines
28:55There's a lot
28:57But for now
29:01Precious
29:03Why Precious?
29:05She's so kind
29:07So clean
29:09So
29:11Professional
29:13I'm aspiring to be like her someday
29:15And it's not
29:17Hard to get close to her
29:19Yes, she's so approachable
29:21But actually
29:23You're both winners
29:25Yes, period
29:27Correct
29:29I also want to talk about
29:31Your very light love life
29:33What's the secret
29:35Of your partner
29:37In a long lasting relationship
29:39Fight
29:41No
29:43What is it
29:45Understanding
29:47It's easy to apologize
29:49That's it
29:51Because we've been together for a long time
29:53How many years have we been together, Carlo?
29:5550 years
29:57Period
29:59Wow, 50 years
30:01There you go
30:03I look ugly there
30:05Wow, that episode
30:07I cried
30:09Because of jealousy
30:11You're so beautiful
30:15That episode is so beautiful
30:17But that's it
30:19It's just
30:21Understanding
30:23Each other
30:25In any relationship
30:27Even if it's a family
30:29Friends
30:31There's always a fight
30:33Anger
30:35But at the end of the day
30:37When you talk
30:39Communication
30:41Noted
30:43She's noted
30:45Comment there
30:47She's the best
30:49There
30:51Let's talk about
30:53Your recent exposure
30:55This is your joining
30:57KALOKA LIKE season 4
30:59Of It's Showtime
31:01Yes, as an actress
31:03Correct
31:05But actually
31:07When I saw
31:09You posted on
31:11Facebook group
31:13And you're looking for clothes
31:15I was like, oh my god
31:17She has a plan
31:19At that time
31:21A lot of people heard
31:23They were waiting
31:25When you came out
31:27You represented the community
31:29In this season
31:31How was it?
31:33Super
31:35What was your idea
31:37When you joined KALOKA LIKE?
31:39It's just
31:41Actually
31:43It's just full of fans
31:45This is the wig
31:47But it's just full of fans
31:49They were like
31:51Can you imitate Meme?
31:53So I was like, yes
31:55I'll try
31:57So when there's
31:59Shows
32:01I was like, do Meme
32:03Excuse me
32:07But after that
32:09I informed her
32:11On Bikini Man
32:13And I gave her
32:15Chicken
32:17So she posted on Twitter
32:19I made her
32:21On Boxilog
32:23I leveled up
32:25Chicken Joy
32:27Chicken Joy?
32:29Chicken McDo?
32:31It's different
32:33It's different
32:35The Chicken McDo
32:37On Live Chicken
32:39So Meme saw it
32:41She tweeted
32:43And that's when the idea started
32:45Yes
32:47But before
32:49When the show
32:51KALOKA LIKE came out
32:53I told her to audition
32:55So she really thought about it
32:57They told me
32:59I don't want to
33:01So I pushed her
33:05But ever since
33:07It's weird
33:09If I ask
33:11Do you idolize Vice?
33:13For sure
33:15She's one of the people
33:17In the queer community
33:19But when you joined
33:21Your nuances were amazing
33:23You really taught her
33:25Or ever since
33:27You've been watching her
33:29Yes, I've been watching her
33:31Since she was a kid
33:33I didn't teach her
33:35I feel like
33:37It became natural for me
33:39I didn't teach her
33:41Since I've been watching her
33:43I was able to imitate her
33:45The simple
33:47Let's show Deja
33:49The simple
33:51Let's show the cam
33:53To Deja
33:55The simple mouth
33:57You got it
33:59You're not moving yet
34:01Okay
34:03Vice, beautiful
34:07You got it
34:09Just like that
34:11Yes
34:13But how was your experience
34:15With KALOKA LIKE?
34:17Super happy
34:19Another fantasy check
34:23Bucket list
34:25Check
34:27Super happy
34:29First of all
34:31I saw Meme
34:33That was my goal
34:35Actually
34:37Even if I didn't win
34:39In the daily round
34:41It's okay
34:43Plus
34:45I made it to the semis
34:47Unfortunately
34:49We didn't make it to the finals
34:51But you made it to the semis
34:53It's still a feat
34:55And you're one of those
34:57Who went viral
34:59In your season
35:01And when you had
35:03Vice's interaction
35:05You were acknowledged
35:07How did you feel at that time?
35:09It was so emotional
35:11That's why I cried
35:13Wow, on TV
35:15I'm an artist
35:17But
35:19I was shocked
35:21Because Meme
35:23Watched my season
35:25He watched DRAG DEAD
35:27He didn't brief
35:29That
35:31I was going to win
35:33Suddenly
35:35He knew
35:37He watched me in DRAGON
35:39He said
35:41If you used to watch me
35:43Now I'm watching you
35:45And I'm rooting for you
35:47I was so touched
35:49I cried
35:51But it was beautiful
35:53A very full circle moment
35:55Yes, so much
35:57But aside from
35:59Your interaction with Onka
36:01Was there a backstage interaction
36:03With Meme Vice?
36:05Yes
36:07In the semis
36:09I didn't make it to the finals
36:13And the clothes I wore
36:15His clothes
36:17His clothes
36:19In his music video RAMPA
36:21So I said
36:23To his stylist
36:25I waited for him
36:27I waited for him
36:29To come out of his dressing room
36:31I waited for him for 30 minutes
36:35When he came out
36:37I heard his voice
36:39I said, hi Meme
36:41He said, you're still here
36:43I said, yes
36:45He said, maybe
36:47I lost
36:49He said, who is that?
36:51He was surprised
36:53I said, is that mine?
36:55His stylist
36:57Borrowed it from me
36:59I was so thankful
37:01Because he let me borrow it
37:03He said, it's yours
37:05He gave it to me
37:07So this is the photo
37:09We showed earlier
37:11That moment
37:13In the backstage
37:15In the dressing room
37:17I gave it to him
37:19He gave it to me
37:21I was so thankful
37:23That's amazing
37:25At least you won
37:27Actually
37:29I didn't win in the finals
37:31But I won in the deadman
37:33Because I have clothes
37:35That I can use in the show
37:37I was so thankful
37:39But
37:41If you joined Caloca Life
37:43Do you have an alternative
37:45If it's not Vice?
37:47No
37:49He's uncourteous
37:51I'm just a lipstick
37:53I'm uncourteous
37:55So it's really MemeVice
37:57It's MemeVice or
37:59Nothing
38:01If I didn't do MemeVice
38:03What would I do there?
38:05What would I do there?
38:07Vlog
38:09Your experience
38:11From the start
38:13Rehearsals and everything
38:15And then
38:17I said, I'll do fantasy in the rehearsal
38:19I'll do MemeVice
38:21So I did my makeup in the CR
38:23It's perfect
38:25To record your whole journey
38:27There
38:29He's attacking
38:31What advice can you give
38:33When Caloca Life has a new season?
38:35To those who want to join
38:37Just enjoy it
38:39Just enjoy it
38:41Nothing will be lost
38:43At least
38:45You're exposed
38:47You tried
38:49What's happening
38:51Behind the camera
38:53But
38:55The audition process
38:57Is it hard?
38:59Is it challenging?
39:01It's hard
39:03It's hard
39:05I don't know what to say
39:07You can't detail it
39:09I can't
39:11Because it might be out of tune
39:15But it's hard
39:17You can hear it
39:19You can hear it
39:21Yes
39:23Anyway, it's challenging
39:25You need to audition for the season
39:27And for sure
39:29Because this season was successful
39:31Next season will be
39:33Caloca Life
39:35Do you have
39:37After JAGDEN
39:39Season 2 Caloca Life
39:41Do you want to join?
39:45It's a secret
39:47Why would I tell you?
39:49Just wait
39:51Just wait
39:53But now, I'm thankful for the projects
39:55So that's it
39:57Okay
39:59That's Deja's plan

42:33I'm sorry
42:35But
42:37I love drag brunch
42:39Because it's more intimate
42:41And
42:43Some fans can't
42:45So they go to drag brunch
42:47And also drag brunch is
42:49Often

45:27The preparation
45:29It's not easy to do makeup
45:31When you wear
45:33The stockings
45:35The clothes
45:37There are clothes that
45:39You can't sit
45:41Actually
45:43And
45:45Wigs, it hurts my head
45:47Especially if it's long

46:55Joining a drag competition
46:57Drag Den
46:59Because in Baguio
47:01There are a lot of people who want to join
47:03Drag Den or Drag Race

50:31of Drag Death?
50:33No
50:35Breaking news
50:37The answer is no
50:39Just wait
50:41Just wait
50:43Just wait
50:45But Deja
50:47In season 1
50:49There was non-elimination
50:51In your season
50:53There was
50:55But actually
50:57you wanted it to be
50:59non-elim
51:01So you can showcase what you prepared
51:03But you're dead
51:05So that's it
51:07You already manifested
51:09But if there's a future season
51:11of Drag Death
51:13What format do you want?
51:15Season 1? Season 2?
51:19It's up to them
51:21It's up to you
51:27It's good that
51:29there's no elimination
51:31If you're competing
51:33At least you have a chance
51:35to show everything
51:37But
51:39If there's elimination
51:41and competition
51:43You'll be eager to do better
51:45Right?
51:47You'll be more nervous
51:49It's good that you're nervous
51:51Actually
51:53You're more fired up
51:55Yes
51:57But it's up to them
51:59I'm not the owner
52:01So it's up to them
52:03I'll just pass the crown
52:05So if there's a next season
52:07You want to sit in
52:09Yes, that's what I want
52:11That's the fantasy you want
52:13You're crazy
52:17But I want to replace Manila
52:21But I want to be a guest judge
52:23For episode 1
52:27How about a mainstay judge?
52:29I'm okay with that
52:31I'll replace Sasa
52:33To interview the gays
52:35No, but
52:37I want to be a judge
52:39It's good that
52:41From one queen who competed
