00:00You will be designing a look for moi
00:02that I will be modeling on the Bain stage.
00:05I'm really proud of what I did.
00:07I don't think anyone could take away this joy.
00:10Your wardrobe malfunction literally malfunctioned
00:12on that runway.
00:13You had one of the only ones that she did
00:15fumble just slightly on it.
00:16I'm so fucking done!
00:18I'm done!
00:19Fuck you!
00:20I'm not tearing her down.
00:21I am just going to do my best.
00:23I'm going to do my best.
00:24I'm going to do my best.
00:25I'm going to do my best.
00:26I'm going to do my best.
00:27Fuck you!
00:28I'm not tearing her down.
00:29I am just enlightening the facts that happened.
00:32Let me tell you something.
00:34I am Michaela motherfucking Couture.
00:36I'm done with you.
00:37Done!
00:38Mini Wang, congratulations.
00:40The Virgo Queen.
00:41Shante, you stay.
00:43Xana, sashay away.
00:46We're all gagged at what just happened.
00:49That was a fucking lot.
00:51This is tense.
00:53Can I have a cigarette?
00:55Had so much fun antagonizing you.
00:58It was an honor.
01:00Season 5, Sisters for Life.
01:02Bye, slurs!
01:04Xana, you're the best.
01:05You're the best.
01:06You're the best.
01:07You're the best.
01:08You're the best.
01:09You're the best.
01:10You're the best.
01:11You're the best.
01:12You're the best.
01:13You're the best.
01:14Xana, you did so well.
01:16She really antagonized all of us.
01:19I mean, she really came in unapologetically herself.
01:23And clearly, she ticked off some people's nerves.
01:26But I do respect her for just being a bold bitch, you know?
01:30I'm sad.
01:31I loved her feisty energy.
01:33I never take it personally.
01:35Bye, Xana.
01:37Bye.
01:38Xana-doo.
01:39I feel the most sad because she's leaving with this unfinished business with Mikaela.
01:45Teeth and hair greased.
01:47Let's sit the fuck down.
01:51All right, divas.
01:52First of all, congratulations, Virgo.
01:56Yes!
01:57She's like, I'm going to slay the dancing lip syncs.
01:59I'm going to slay the ballads, bitch.
02:01I bet you didn't know I had a ballad in me.
02:03Exactly.
02:04That song started and you went, shall we go for it?
02:07Literally.
02:08I feel good.
02:09I think, like, being in the bottom the past two weeks has really, like, changed my perspective of things.
02:17I'm here to fucking show up every single day.
02:19And I just want to make sure, like, moving forward, I'm going to put my best effort and, like, make sure that I'm in a top position.
02:27So y'all better beware.
02:30Better watch out.
02:31Because I'm ready for my third win.
02:33Also, I feel like we need to give a big congratulations to my Putakana partner.
02:40I can't believe we're going together.
02:43Design challenge winner number two.
02:46But seriously, congratulations, dude.
02:48Like, you deserve that win.
02:49I guess I'm going to just have to accept now that I am a designer.
02:53I am a seamstress.
02:54I am a sewer.
02:56I think, like, as the competition has gone on, my confidence has just grown.
03:00And now, I know it sounds really dumb, but, like, I'm now starting to believe in myself more.
03:05Starting off my journey as a pit crew member to now top five on season five as a queen, like, that doesn't compute.
03:17But I am just thrilled.
03:19I do want to check in with my sister, Mikaela, because we had a pretty severe moment in our untucked.
03:25You are a small, tiny-ass human being.
03:29And that is exactly why you bring down everyone else in the room.
03:33First of all, I apologize to you guys because you guys don't.
03:36Don't apologize.
03:37But regardless, y'all do not deserve to have to have witnessed that.
03:41That's great, but we don't apologize for your emotions.
03:44No.
03:45Don't apologize at all.
03:48I felt like I had never put down Zana.
03:51But somehow, Zana would always find a way to put down someone in the room.
03:57Literally, this has been a buildup of, like, weeks upon weeks.
04:02I feel like I could have handled the situation with Zana a lot better.
04:05But I am human.
04:07I have feelings.
04:08I've informed Zana about how I felt, about the way she spoke to me.
04:13And she continued, so.
04:17And you know what?
04:18I love and respect her for everything she's done so far on this season.
04:22I honestly do not hate her.
04:25However, she is not my girl.
04:28People are entitled to their feelings.
04:30And what I had said after the blowup, it wasn't to, like, silence you or anything.
04:35I was just trying to say, like, the fire can sometimes, like, you say things and then it just means that the door is shut.
04:43And sometimes you don't want to regret it and make things worse if there is ever the chance of, like, wanting to be friends.
04:51That's all.
04:52At the end of the day, I do have to watch this back.
04:54And I do have to take ownership of what I said.
04:57Personally, I feel like what I said was absolutely fucking correct.
05:02So I feel no ways I'm going to watch this back and smile, bitch.
05:06Oh, my God.
05:07You're going to crack the fuck up.
05:08It was so funny.
05:09Just you in this yellow wig.
05:11In the yellow outfit.
05:12Looking like a damn Oompa Loompa.
05:14You stormed off in your hat just hanging out.
05:18Girl.
05:19All right, Miss Oompa Loompa.
05:21I think we should all get out of drugs.
05:25Let's go, girl.
05:27Going into the next week, I am feeling confident.
05:31Like, take a look at her track record.
05:33Look at the receipts.
05:35An Asian parent would be proud.
05:37I live.
05:38Minnie has two wins.
05:40Virgo has two wins.
05:41Michaela has one.
05:42I have one.
05:43Helena has none.
05:44Work.
05:45Get your pearl necklaces on, bitches.
05:47It's my time to get another win.
05:51Top six from the fucking six.
05:53But we won.
05:54Top five from the six.
05:55It was better, bitch.
05:58The winner of Canada's Drag Race
06:00receives the pleasure of $100,000,
06:03thanks to Trojan.
06:05With Tracy Melshore, Brad Goreski,
06:08and Brooklyn Hype.
06:10With tonight's extra special guest judge,
06:12T.S. Madison.
06:21Oh!
06:24Fab top five!
06:26It's a new day in the workroom.
06:28We are down to one hand.
06:30And...
06:32Hi.
06:33I'm one of them.
06:34We all have so many big accomplishments
06:37throughout this competition that, like...
06:39Yeah.
06:40Yeah, it's truly, it's anyone's game.
06:42And like I said last week,
06:43every single day is a brand new day.
06:46Yes.
06:47And it's a new day in the workroom.
06:48It is a new day.
06:49And we all have a win.
06:51Oh, wait.
06:52Bitch!
06:55I am currently the only one without a win.
06:57My sisters love to remind me.
07:00It's all really settling in
07:02how real this next week is going to be.
07:05What is going on with you today?
07:06I just woke up with the horns out, bitch.
07:09My horns are out.
07:10Oh!

07:22you can't blame it on the edit.
07:24So grab your cocktail and bottoms up.
07:29Oh, mocktail.

08:01So I'm looking for a fierce field reporter.
08:04And for today's mini challenge, that's you.
08:07You have 20 minutes to get into correspondent quick drag,
08:11then you'll meet me on set to hit the airwaves.
08:14All right.
08:15Ready, set, go!
08:19I hope there's a teleprompter.
08:21Hey!
08:22All right! All right!
08:25Quick drag. Eyes and lips. Quick drag.
08:29Okay, let's look like hot garbage.
08:31Has anybody, like, auditioned for something in the past
08:34and, like, gone terribly wrong?
08:37Yeah, seasons one through four for Canada's Drag Race.
08:41Hello, Helena Poison. Welcome to the field.
08:45Oh, my gosh. I can't wait for the news.
08:47For this week's mini challenge,
08:49Brad is looking to hire a field reporter
08:52for his new news network, BNN.
08:55All right, behind you, various news stories will unfold.
08:59It is your job to report the facts to our viewers at home.
09:03Let's do this.
09:05And we're live!
09:08Hey, we're back, and, oh, my goodness,
09:11I am here at the Miss Teen Princess pageant
09:14here in Mount Rose, Minnesota.
09:17We are at some sort of seance, it looks like,
09:21and slash a beauty pageant.
09:23Yes, where they are kicking and doing their talent number tonight.
09:27Yes, all hail America.
09:30What is the atmosphere like?
09:32The atmosphere is white,
09:35dresses.
09:37It's high kicks all around.
09:39These ladies are really giving it.
09:41What beautiful, beautiful ladies.
09:44Who's going to win? Who's going to take the crown?
09:46And who's going to be Miss Teen America
09:48and potentially get married?
09:50So right now, we are capturing the moment of our winner!
09:54Our winner! Yes! Yes!
09:57Oh, look at that. She's won. She's happy.
10:00Or maybe she's crying. We're not too sure.
10:02But a lot of emotions are happening.
10:04I felt like I was right there with you.
10:06Oh, thank you.
10:08Here is your next location.
10:11Today, we are at the racetrack,
10:13and we have some amazing Olympians.
10:16Lots of running young men here.
10:18Let me step up. Oh, hello, sir.
10:20Hey, how's it going, 603?
10:22And right now, we have number 603 prepared to grab the bouton.
10:28There he goes, takes off running.
10:30There he goes, takes off running.
10:32I'm rooting for Jamaica.
10:34It's actually passing a message on.
10:36This is before the Internet, before television.
10:38It's a message race.
10:40Oh, my goodness, we are winning number 625.
10:42Come on, 625!
10:44Look at those arms go. They're almost as big as mine.
10:46Oh!
10:48Oh!
10:50We are looking at our spaceships
10:52going up to the moon,
10:54as RuPaul once said.
10:56Lift off!
10:58Oh!
11:00That's really hot.
11:02First drag queen in space.
11:04There she is. Look at her go.
11:06She lost her lashes, but that's okay.
11:08In space, no one can see your lashes.
11:10All right.
11:12And here is your last location.
11:14Where are we heading today?
11:16Oh, gosh.
11:18We are in the workroom
11:20of season four.
11:22Melinda Verga
11:24is very, very excited
11:26and passionate about wearing
11:28a Vivienne Westwood-inspired outfit.
11:30Oh, things are about to take
11:32a very, very hard turn.
11:34She is saying,
11:36look into my pretty blue contact eyes
11:38and tell me that I don't look beautiful.
11:40Venus says,
11:42you don't look beautiful, bitch.
11:44You don't.
11:46Will she exit the room?
11:48Well, stay tuned to find out.
11:50All we know is those chompers are chomping today.
11:52Oh, Melinda
11:54is storming out of the room.
11:56Cameras, are we following Melinda?
11:58Very well done.
12:00Thank you. That was weird.
12:02Do you want
12:04to sign off?
12:06This has been Perla reporting live for BNN Network.
12:08I hope I got the job.
12:10This just in.
12:12You all slayed the field,
12:14but one of you was our top story.
12:16The winner of today's
12:18mini challenge is
12:20the Virgo queen.
12:22Yay!

12:26Yes!
12:28You're a natural born reporter.
12:30You have won $2,500

12:36Cha-ching, cha-ching, cha-ching.
12:38Now that you've
12:40seized the day,
12:42it's time to take the night.
12:44For this week's maxi challenge,
12:46the five of you

13:00Okay, this challenge sounds really fun.
13:02I love an interview setting,
13:04so I'm feeling comfy.
13:06You've been booked to promote the sizzling
13:08new season of Canada's Drag Race.
13:10So I want
13:12you to give your best talking
13:14head. You'll
13:16spill the tea on this season,
13:18cast some shade at your sisters,
13:20and play some gag-worthy games.
13:22Love, love, love.
13:24And you'll really want to bring it, because your guest judge
13:26this week is the one,
13:28the only,
13:30T.S. Madison!
13:32Oh my god!
13:34Yes!
13:36This is literally
13:38a dream. T.S. Madison
13:40is that bitch, so she's going to meet
13:42the other bad bitch.
13:44Racers, start your
13:46selections, and may the best drag queen
13:48spill!
13:52Alright,
13:54and the girls are off.
13:56For this week's
13:58Maxi Challenge, we are going to show off
14:00our star power while we get interviewed
14:02by Brad. We're going to be just like
14:04those celebrities working on their new projects.
14:06I'm feeling excited about
14:08this challenge. It's like the most
14:10practical, real-world
14:12challenge with things that we're actually
14:14going to be doing following
14:16this competition. Do any of
14:18you guys, like, enjoy
14:20hosting, since we're about to do our
14:22little talk show moment? I never really
14:24did too much hosting
14:26before, and then so
14:28coming to Toronto, where they're like,
14:30okay, to the wolves with you, have
14:32fun. Where you actually have
14:34to like figure out things to say on
14:36the mic, and how to like be engaging.
14:38It took a hot minute to kind of
14:40like figure out my footing. I like
14:42to plan things. Even if when it comes
14:44to improv, I want to have like
14:46my cues that I want to hit, I want to know
14:48what my character is, and I normally
14:50take like way too long to plan that
14:52shit out, so that when you're like, no, just go,
14:54I'm like, ah. As drag queens do,
14:56like, you just figure it out. Yeah,
14:58make it work. Hosting is what I do, girl.
15:00Y'all know you've been to my show.
15:02Y'all know that I host down.
15:04So, I really like
15:06love talking to people, and like
15:08being a full fucking mess, cause like
15:10when I perform, I'm like sexy and hot,
15:12and then, you know, I talk on the mic, and that's really how
15:14you get people to connect with
15:16you, and like get to know
15:18you, right? Totally.
15:20I would not consider myself someone
15:22who likes hosting at all. I'm
15:24very much that girl who kind of like speeds
15:26through my hosting just to
15:28get to perform. I know, well, it's actually
15:30funny, cause you can be very shy, right?
15:32I can, I can.
15:34This challenge is literally
15:36asking for just
15:38you, and to
15:40be engaging, but also
15:42allow everyone else
15:44around you to feel like they're
15:46a part of the conversation.
15:48Do you have that
15:50personality that can bring people in?
15:52Like, woah,
15:54chow. Like, if you don't
15:56win this one, it's like, damn.
15:58Welcome, everyone, to
16:00What Just Happened. I'm your
16:02host, Brad Goreski, and joining
16:04me is the dynamic
16:06final five of Canada's
16:08Drag Race.
16:10Hi, ladies.
16:12Wow, you all look so gorgeous.
16:16Alright, now I'm going to critique your looks.
16:18Just kidding.
16:20Hey, Virgo.
16:22Hey, boo-boo.
16:24Hey, Virgo.
16:26Hey, Virgo.
16:28Hey, boo-boo.
16:30So, are you actually a Virgo?
16:32No, I'm not. I'm a Scorpio.
16:34Lies, really?
16:36Yes, this is not my real hair, either.
16:38Good day, Minnie.
16:40Good day, Brad.
16:42Did you hit the gym today?
16:44No time. This took all of my time off.
16:46Okay, well, the pump is good.
16:48No, I mean the pump.
16:50Oh, shit.
16:52So, I have lots of questions
16:54and before we get to those,
16:56let's get to our first game of the night.
16:58Oh, work.
17:00It's called the Chomping Block.
17:02Oh.
17:04Munch, munch.
17:06Everyone pick up their block.
17:08Work.
17:10I'm going to ask some questions and you tell me
17:12which queen comes to mind.
17:14Honest answers, please.
17:16Always.
17:18Who is the most fashionable?
17:20Oh, wow.
17:22Oh, unanimous.
17:24Is it?
17:26Except for Michaela put herself.
17:28What?
17:30Now, this is way more interesting to me.
17:32Who?
17:34Who is the least fashionable?
17:36Oh.
17:38Oh, fuck.
17:40Oh, shit.
17:42That is some shady question.
17:44You said me?
17:46You shady bitch.
17:48No, it's okay.
17:50It's okay.
17:52Oh, well, she's shady as hell, too.
17:54Let's freeze the hat.
17:56Who paints the best mug?
17:58Oh.
18:00Oh.
18:02Oh.
18:04Baby, don't act like it's hard.
18:06Just pick my face.
18:08Just pick my face.
18:10I'm sorry I didn't go with you, though.
18:12Oh, my God.
18:14That's fine.
18:16We also told you you had the least taste.
18:18Let's get to some viewer questions.
18:20People have been watching and loving you all.
18:22Oh, of course.
18:24So, Perla.
18:26Hello.
18:28You've brought your love for fashion to every runway.
18:30Where does that come from?
18:32Honestly, I think it kind of comes from my grandma.
18:34She always taught me,
18:36always get dressed up,
18:38because you never know who's going to knock at your door,
18:40and that has stuck in my head.
18:42That's sweet, but she never told you to put blush on, huh?
18:44No.
18:46Virgo.
18:48What was it like being in the competition
18:50with your drag daughter, Sangina?
18:52Oh, my goodness.
18:54Honestly, it was such a surreal experience
18:56to get to be on this platform
18:58with my drag daughter.
19:00Like, I'm so proud
19:02of everything she accomplished,
19:04and, of course, it's bittersweet.
19:06It's sad that she left.
19:08I wanted her here.
19:10I say it all the time.
19:12I'm like, oh, I wish Sangina was here for this,
19:14but she showed who she is,
19:16and I know that this is going to benefit her
19:18so much in the future.
19:20Like, oh, what a blessing.
19:22Minnie, you said you felt underestimated
19:24in this competition.
19:26Yeah.
19:28Which of your sisters made you feel that way the most?
19:30Honestly,
19:32I think it's that Intercepteur.
19:34It really is just all in my head,
19:36but I really am very proud
19:38of where I've come.
19:40You should be. You're an icon.
19:42Mikaela. Hi.
19:44Do you feel like you are in your drag mother,
19:46Isis' shadow?
19:48I made a name for myself the second
19:50I started drag. We are two very
19:52different people, so
19:54we can shine in our own light.
19:56Love, love that. Amen.
19:58Helena, you are an incredible designer.
20:00Were you surprised to fall short of a win
20:02in both of this season's design
20:04challenges? I expected to be in the top
20:06for both design challenges,
20:08but I'm not surprised that Minnie beat me out
20:10of them. I'm not mad about it either.
20:12I designed two beautiful garments.
20:14You did. Were they finished?
20:16Jury's out, but...
20:18If there's one thing
20:20I love about these drag queens,
20:22it's that they are willing to take risks
20:24whether it be in a challenge or on the
20:26runway. It is now time
20:28to play Defend Your
20:30Drag.
20:32You all have some
20:34splainin' to do. Oh my god.
20:36I'm so excited. Mikaela,
20:38it is your moment.
20:40You know what, actually? This is
20:42not hard to defend.
20:44The body is giving. See that hip?
20:46The outfit might not be the
20:48best, but that color, it is
20:50everything. Thank you, Mikaela.
20:52Helena. Yes. You're up
20:54next.
20:56Oh my god.
20:58You know what? I'm not
21:00gonna defend this. Look at her.
21:02I will defend bringing
21:04up Brooklyn's lace front eyebrows, though.
21:06Oh my god.
21:08Minnie, here is your
21:10moment. Here we go.
21:12Oh my
21:14god. Wouldn't you want to receive
21:16a showcase from this woman? No.
21:18No. Where's the lip gone?
21:20Where? You tell us.
21:22Virgo,
21:24here's your moment. What do we got?
21:26Oh no.
21:28Not Miss Judge Lynn
21:30Toler, honey. Honestly, I
21:32looked the part down.
21:34The cross-eyed is getting
21:36me right now.
21:38Perla, here is your moment.
21:40I hope it's horrible.
21:42Oh, you know what? This was
21:44art. I'm quite
21:46pale, but that was the look.
21:48That was the look.
21:50I stand corrected. All
21:52your drag is untouchable.
21:54Stop, Mark.
21:56You've all inspired fans around the world,
21:58and I want to keep the ball rolling
22:00with some more thought-provoking questions for the
22:02group.
22:04What advice would you give someone
22:06wanting to get into drag?
22:08I would say, just do it.
22:10Just take the step of courage and just give it a
22:12try. Don't be afraid to be a mess.
22:14Makeup takes time,
22:16hair takes time, but
22:18it'll come together. Charisma, uniqueness,
22:20nerve, and talent. Baby, that's
22:22all it takes. Yeah. You got a little
22:24sparkle, let it shine. What is
22:26the biggest misconception about drag queens?
22:28I would say that we're like
22:30all stupid,
22:32and this is our last resort. Like, we didn't
22:34have a career. It's like, no, I chose
22:36to do this, and I'm so glad that I
22:38did. Yeah, that part. And that
22:40we're all doing it for a drink ticket.
22:42I'm here for a paycheck
22:44and maybe
22:46three Red Bulls, but like,
22:48not everyone wants your shot as a tip,
22:50but we all want your money. That part.
22:52Yes. What would you say
22:54to someone who doesn't believe drag is
22:56appropriate for children? This
22:58is play. This is fun.
23:00What you see here is sparkle
23:02and bright colors. Me, as a
23:04kid, I would've loved some drag.
23:06I'd also add that
23:08not all drag is for children, but
23:10the same way that not all movies are for children,
23:12not all television shows are for children.
23:14Thank you. There are drag artists who do drag
23:16to cater to children, and there are drag
23:18artists who do drag that caters
23:20to adults and nightlife, and I
23:22don't think that we should all be grouped together in one
23:24group. Thank you for your thoughtful answers.
23:26You've just
23:28proven that you have tact, but now
23:30it's time to see if you can act.
23:32I'm going to hand out some scripts that depict
23:34an iconic moment that went down
23:36in our very own workroom.
23:38Oh, snap.
23:40Pick a script.
23:42This one? Thank you.
23:44Let's do
23:46this one.
23:48Thank you. Oh, shit.
23:50Everyone ready?
23:52Let's start.
23:54When they asked us this question of who
23:56should go home, everyone except me said Jada,
23:58and I would never say Jada.
24:00Who did you say? Me.
24:02I'm most pissed off at that.
24:04I'm not going to lie. That I said you?
24:06Yeah, because I talked to you and
24:08asked you about my look, and you were like,
24:10it's pretty. It looks really good.
24:12Don't worry about it.
24:14The first week, you also told me that
24:16you thought I looked really good, and
24:18then when we were talking in Untucked,
24:20you told me that I should be in the bottom,
24:22and I was like, this is, like,
24:24a common occurrence.
24:26You should have been straight up
24:28and been like, no.
24:30Wait one second. Hold on,
24:32Chaos. If I didn't want to see you
24:34do well, I wouldn't have given you
24:36that wig you're wearing right now.
24:38That's true. You're right.
24:40Second, when Fierce is freaking
24:42out, is she a fun person
24:44to be around? No.
24:46Well, I just want to say something,
24:48and it's really hurting me and
24:50all the way up, because Kimmy,
24:52I thought you and me was cute, okay?
24:54We know each other from a long
24:56fucking time, and you called my
24:58name on stage.
25:00If I were to compare the two outfits,
25:02this was, like, constructed
25:04like, properly, like...
25:06The hot glue gun girls are fighting!
25:08Girl, that's not even funny.
25:10Sorry.
25:12Turn up. Turn up!
25:14And scene!
25:16That was really well done.
25:18That actually made up for Snatch Game.
25:20Thank God.
25:24Well, on that note,
25:26it's time to say goodbye.
25:28But first,
25:30we have a few special fans that want
25:32to give their love to you.
25:34Surprise,
25:36Matt. Congratulations on
25:38making it this far in the competition.
25:40I'm absolutely amazed
25:42with your talent and your
25:44imagination. I can't
25:46wait to see what comes next.
25:48I am so proud of you.
25:50I love you. Bring home
25:52that crown. Bye.
25:54Mom!
25:56That meant everything to me.
25:58I'm here for myself,
26:00but a big part of me is here for my mom.
26:02When I wanted to give up auditioning for this
26:04show, because it was just getting too much,
26:06she said, I want the world to
26:08see how amazing you are and what
26:10I see. So, I have
26:12to do it for her. I want to be
26:14able to give that to her. And also,
26:16Mom, you did a really good job on your makeup.
26:18The mom
26:20stuff always makes me...
26:22Oh my God, my baby!
26:24Hey, my honey bunches of
26:26gold. I miss you so much.
26:28Everybody here at home is cheering
26:30you on, and we're all so proud of you for making it this
26:32far. It's always been your dream
26:34to be doing this, and so we're all asking you
26:36to push yourself even further all the way to
26:38the end. I love you,
26:40and I can't wait to have you back at home.
26:42Oh my God, I can't wait to be home too.
26:44Mikayla,
26:46what did it mean to you to see your partner?
26:50I really fought to
26:52fucking be here,
26:54and just to know that he's still
26:56cheering me on, and
26:58that she's holding down the
27:00fort because the apartment looks clean.
27:02Oh my God, my little white
27:04man.
27:06He always centers me.
27:08While I was looking at him,
27:10I could just hear, like,
27:12breathe, relax.
27:14You're living your dream, and yeah,
27:16I am. I am.
27:18Wei, Mimi,
27:20it's me, your favorite brother,
27:22calling from Australia.
27:24I'm so excited to be able to send you this message
27:26because it must mean that you haven't been
27:28juiceboxed out of the competition as yet.
27:30We are so proud of you,
27:32but a word of warning to the remaining
27:34queens. You may have been giving this
27:36Wang some stiff competition,
27:38but she always comes first.
27:40Yay!
27:42Love you.
27:44It's just so typical him
27:46to be so quick-witted.
27:48He's also gay.
27:50We actually weren't close as siblings.
27:52It was only really until we came out
27:54to each other that we got a lot
27:56closer. Just to, like, hear
27:58how proud he is of me,
28:00like, I can't ask for more.
28:02Hey, P, it's me and Bubz cheering you on from
28:04home. Aww!
28:06We love you. We miss you so, so much.
28:08We know how far you've made in this competition
28:10and you're so close to the end.
28:12Keep fighting. Keep pushing.
28:14Bring us home that crown.
28:16It just means so much to just see his face again
28:18and just hear his voice.
28:20This is literally, like, the longest
28:22we've ever been apart since we started dating.
28:24If you would have told me
28:26three and a half years ago that
28:28I would find someone
28:30that I love so much, I would never
28:32have believed you. Never in a million years.
28:34I know he's my biggest
28:36cheerleader and I'm his.
28:38You know, I love him so much.
28:40Congratulations, Virgo queens!
28:42Oh, my gosh!
28:44To your big sis, Jennihan.
28:46And your loving mother.
28:48We just wanted to say we miss you so much
28:50and we're so proud of you.
28:52You got this. You were born a star.
28:54Show these queens how you slay.
28:56One love.
28:58One love.
29:00No, you come from a long line
29:02of bad bitches.
29:04I know! And finally the prettiest one!
29:08Virgo, what does that mean to you?
29:14Oh, shit.
29:16It means so
29:18much to me
29:20to see my mom and my sister
29:22proud of me.
29:24I know it has
29:26not been easy raising
29:28a child like me.
29:30And just from
29:32where we come from,
29:34these types of things don't exist.
29:36It's beyond
29:38words.
29:40To be here in this experience,
29:42to be so appreciated and so loved,
29:44it's overwhelming.
29:46So I'm crying with joy
29:48and I'm crying with pride
29:50and I'm crying with
29:52excitement. Thank you so much
29:54for that.
29:56Well, this has been
29:58What Just Happened?
30:00I'm your host, Brad Goreski.
30:02Good night.
30:06Now we're all crying.
30:08What a messy ending.
30:12All right, y'all. This way.
30:14Keep on stepping.
30:16Keep on walking, girl.
30:18It's elimination day and
30:20that's the last time I'm going to be saying that
30:22because this is the last elimination
30:24before our finale
30:26of the top four.
30:28Y'all aren't ready for this runway, honey.
30:30You better turn up.
30:32You better turn up.
30:34Yesterday was really fun. It meant everything
30:36to see my mom and my sister.
30:38You know, you can get caught up in the moment
30:40of being here and being sassy and being
30:42the only person to boost yourself up.
30:44So I felt like a moment
30:46of like, oh my god, it's okay.
30:48You know, like you've made them proud
30:50and that's like the most important thing.
30:52I went back to the hotel.
30:54I bawled my eyes out.
30:56Me too.
30:58It all hit me, you know?
31:00Moms really are like
31:02a fucking rock.
31:04My mom is literally
31:06my biggest supporter,
31:08my biggest fan, and we've had
31:10rough patches
31:12and always came through
31:14and she's always been really
31:16on my side to like
31:18follow my dreams and do what I love.
31:20My like
31:22big issues really came with like my dad.
31:24My dad is a fucking
31:26hard ass. He's a piece of shit.
31:28And
31:30when I was 12,
31:32my dad was actually arrested
31:34for child abuse. Oh my god.
31:36Yeah.
31:38I had a like restraining order against
31:40my father. We couldn't
31:42even like be in the same city
31:44together and that was
31:46when my mom filed for divorce.
31:48Wow. And like I have like memories
31:50of like my father pushing me down
31:52a flight of stairs and my sister
31:54covering my mouth while I'm on the floor
31:56crying my eyes out but trying not
31:58to let my father hear that I'm crying.
32:00It's extremely
32:02hard for me to be vulnerable.
32:04I was never raised in an
32:06environment where my emotions were safe.
32:08I was always
32:10told to stop crying
32:12and if you cried harder, you got hit
32:14harder. It was really
32:16tough. That was a huge
32:18catalyst for me in actually getting sober
32:20because I was so afraid that I was turning into
32:22my father. Thank you
32:24for sharing Perla. That's like takes
32:26a lot of bravery, you know, to
32:28bring up something like that and to be
32:30so open. I totally can
32:32connect and relate to that.
32:34I know how it feels
32:36to be closed off and
32:38then to be judged when people don't
32:40understand why you are the way you are.
32:42I feel like
32:44my whole life has always been
32:46a struggle to get
32:48something or get somewhere
32:50and then something
32:52just knocks me down. At the beginning
32:54of the pandemic, I
32:56was starting my career
32:58and I worked really, really hard
33:00to get
33:02some gigs in the
33:04village.
33:06I was
33:08drugged at
33:10one of the bars.
33:12What? It was
33:14a group of people. They brought
33:16me to this
33:18room that they rented in a
33:20condo or I don't know.
33:22I just woke up
33:24and I have
33:26visions of
33:28someone
33:30on top of me.
33:32It's just really
33:34fucked me up because I was like, well, maybe drag
33:36isn't for me. Maybe I should just give up
33:38on that dream because
33:40it feels like the universe is just telling you
33:42no. I blame myself so
33:44many times for drinking and
33:46making the wrong decisions.
33:48I try so hard to be positive
33:50and to love on people
33:52but
33:54I've just been kicked down so many times.
33:56You're so strong,
33:58Virgo. You're so fucking strong.
34:00You've come through it all and still persist.
34:02You have to take that as a testament to your strength.
34:04I mean, therapy is
34:06also magical so please go to therapy.
34:08People
34:10are often
34:12misunderstood.
34:14People are often struggling.
34:16Everyone is going
34:18through something. Every single one of us.
34:20You guys are fucking
34:22phenomenal. Like truly.
34:24Growing up in the church, we did this thing
34:26where if you didn't get a hug
34:28from anyone that day, my aunt would tell
34:30us to just like squeeze yourself and
34:32remind yourself that you are so
34:34loved. Should we all do that?
34:36Can we please? Can we all just
34:38squeeze ourselves right now? Feels good.
34:40Remind yourself that you are so
34:42loved. Please remember
34:44that you're a superstar and that like no matter
34:46what happens, we always
34:48got each other's backs. That part.
34:50Yeah. Ah, so beautiful.
34:52Okay, y'all. I think I finally
34:54figured out. This
34:56is a family.
34:58Yes!

35:30Welcome to the
35:32main stage of Canada's Drag Race.
35:34He's editor and queef of
35:36whom magazine? It's Brad Goreski.
35:38Hey, Brooke.
35:40Hey, Bradley. Hear any good tea lately?
35:42Oh, yeah. I heard Brooklyn Heights
35:44is a real bitch.
35:46Who said that? I never reveal
35:48my sources.
35:50And she's the queen of Canadian
35:52media. It's Tracy Belshore.
35:54Hi, Brooke. Hi, Tracy. How's
35:56your headline? No complaints.
35:58Me neither.
36:00And she's the talk of the town.
36:02The host of Bring Back My Girls.
36:04It's T.S. Madison!
36:06Hi, Brooklyn! What's the key
36:08to a riveting interview? A riveting
36:10interview has to go deep.
36:12You know I like to go real deep.
36:14How deep? Honey, you ain't heard?
36:1622 inches deep!
36:18Yeah!
36:20This week, our queens
36:22make their late night debut on
36:24What Just Happened?
36:26Racers, start your engines.
36:28And may the best drag queen win!
36:30Commence
36:32shake down.
36:34Category is...
36:36Statuesque.
36:38First up, Helena Poison.
36:40For the statuesque
36:42runway, I decided to take it
36:44very literally and become
36:46a statue of Medusa.
36:48Get these motherfucking
36:50snakes out of my motherfucking hair!
36:52Medusa turns
36:54people to stone with her gaze, so
36:56did she accidentally look in a mirror
36:58or did she do it on purpose?
37:00Either way, she's sad and stoned.
37:02Just like me.
37:04Next, Perla.
37:06I'm wearing this beautiful
37:08Schiaparelli-inspired look.
37:10Ga-orge.
37:12With a mixture of Chanel tweed
37:14and the classic Dior
37:16silhouette. I'm literally
37:18a giant bust of
37:20Rapunzel. Someday her prince
37:22will come. This is heavy as shit
37:24and I look great.
37:26I'm serving locked in a tower.
37:28I'm serving mommy issues.
37:30Funny I'd climb her tower.
37:32The Virgo
37:34Queen. Yeah!
37:36I am the Virgo
37:38symbol Greek goddess,
37:40Athena, had to tell
37:42dripped in gold, baby.
37:44I am pumping down this runway,
37:46giving a little bit of Brooklyn Heights.
37:48I got my toes on point,
37:50swishing my little cape
37:52around, posing,
37:54smile, posing,
37:56smile with your teeth.
37:58She's a lady in the streets
38:00and a Greek in the sheets.
38:02Michaela Couture.
38:04Hieroglyphic.
38:06Tonight on this runway,
38:08I am wearing a Nefertiti-inspired
38:10look. I can see her Nefertitties.
38:12We have
38:14beautiful, big-ass
38:16shoulders and this hat,
38:18Miss Mama. There is no church lady
38:20around who can say they have
38:22a hat like me. If someone say amen.
38:24If you're good to mommy,
38:26mommy's good to you.
38:28And finally,
38:30Mini Wang.
38:32My inspiration is the
38:34giant prawn in Australia.
38:36It is an actual statue of a
38:38prawn. Oh my god, it's literally
38:40shrimp on the barbie.
38:42I'm giving you crustacean
38:44realness.
38:46This wig, look at all of the stones
38:48on it, look at the ombre, look at the texture.
38:50It's delicious. So grab some
38:52Thousand Island sauce and
38:54dip away. From executive
38:56producer, Pranda Rimes.
38:58Jesus Christ.
39:02Welcome, queens.
39:04Hi. Hello. It's now time
39:06for the judges' critiques.
39:08First up, Helena Poison.
39:10Hello. I really
39:12enjoyed interviewing you.
39:14You were the perfect mix of
39:16shady, real
39:18and just present.
39:20Your fierce,
39:22malicious was hilarious.
39:24The hot glue gun girls are fighting.
39:26I thought you got so many good little
39:28zingers in there. You even managed to read me
39:30for my lace front eyebrows, which is a very,
39:32very dark period in my life that we don't talk
39:34about anymore.
39:36You gave it your all and I saw a
39:38star. Now your
39:40look, this is
39:42definitely a memorable moment. Honey, I'm
39:44sitting here hard as a rock right now
39:46and you wouldn't even know it.
39:48This runway
39:50is sensational.
39:52I can't tell
39:54when the sleeve ends and your neck
39:56starts. Details like that
39:58also make me hard.
40:00From your makeup to the way
40:02you performed it, it is
40:04drag race excellence.
40:06You've always given us
40:08exactly who you are and
40:10what your drag style is, but different
40:12variations of it. And this,
40:14this is the best for last. Thank you so much.
40:16That means a lot. Up next,
40:18Perla. Hi. Hello.
40:20Perla, you're known
40:22as the girly with the gift for
40:24fashion, but you're also known as
40:26the girly with the gift for chatting,
40:28which makes a great talk
40:30show guest. Editing is key
40:32and you really
40:34edited yourself. I appreciated
40:36the fact that you kept your
40:38answers concise, but
40:40I did think that there were
40:42opportunities for you to go a little bit
40:44deeper and to, like,
40:46reveal a little bit more of yourself.
40:48I think you were almost there a few
40:50instances, but then you would try to cover
40:52it up with a joke, which I also
40:54understand, but allow yourself those moments
40:56too, to, like, really let us
40:58in. You know, you gave me
41:00very soft pussy cut queen in the
41:02challenge and I really enjoyed that.
41:04Now this look,
41:06I leaned over to Brad, I said, honey, that's
41:08runway. It just
41:10gave me a wave. And I may not be a fashion
41:12mogul, because I'm a girl from the hood, honey,
41:14but baby, this right here
41:16gave me everything
41:18that I needed. You look beautiful
41:20and this look is very cool,
41:22but I did not understand it.
41:24You didn't like it?
41:26I liked it. I just didn't read the statuette.
41:28Okay. She doesn't
41:30look like a statue? No. Oh.
41:32She's a bust.
41:34You're a bust. Look at those.
41:36That's a bust. These are
41:38boobs.
41:40That are busting out.
41:44Next up, the Virgo queen.
41:46You were just a delight
41:48to be on set with.
41:50I loved your answer about the
41:52misconception of drag queens
41:54and that people think we do this because we
41:56have to. We do it because we love it
41:58and because it's our passion and I thought that was such a
42:00beautiful, soulful thing for you to
42:02be able to say. There was also that
42:04heartfelt moment when you talked about
42:06Stangina. That felt real,
42:08which was really great to see.
42:10As a viewer at home, if you can pull
42:12on my heart string, honey, I don't
42:14remember any other thing that you said
42:16but how you made my heart feel.
42:18We have not seen you like this and you
42:20absolutely give statuesque.
42:22You give goddess. You give
42:24supermodel. You were just
42:26so regal and elegant
42:28and I feel the fire
42:30is just like burning very bright
42:32right now. Thank you so much.
42:34Thank you all judges.
42:36Up next, Michaela
42:38Couture. You were
42:40energized yesterday.
42:42Your energy was just like
42:44palpable from the minute you
42:46came on. What I really appreciated
42:48about you was the fact
42:50that you were seated down
42:52in the corner but you still
42:54managed to turn
42:56around and engage your sisters
42:58behind you. Let me talk
43:00about how proud I am
43:02of you, especially being
43:04a trans woman to occupy
43:06national television
43:08and just to be present in your presence.
43:10I would have wanted just
43:12a little bit more. I think it's the trans in me
43:14that's like, oh, just
43:16but you know, I always want
43:18you in any position that you occupy
43:20to let it be known
43:22that yes, I'm trans. I'm smart.
43:24I'm beautiful. I'm witty and I
43:26am that girl.
43:28Now this look, oh honey, you took
43:30it to the motherland, girl. Yes, daughter
43:32of Isis, okay?
43:34This Nefertiti, the
43:36Egyptian queen of grace and beauty
43:38and you personify that perfectly.
43:40As always, you give us a beautiful
43:42presentation on the runway.
43:44So great job. Thank you so much, hon.
43:46Last but certainly not
43:48least, Mini Wang. Hi.
43:50I really enjoyed you in the talk
43:52show. You were just authentic and
43:54raw and charming and it was really
43:56nice to see you come into your power.
43:58There's this amazing
44:00humility about you.
44:02It was so lovely and so
44:04engaging. I thought that you were really
44:06funny, but I did feel
44:08in some instances that you were giving
44:10a kind of democratic answer
44:12and that is a skill. Give a very high
44:14road answer, but you also have to know
44:16sometimes you have to balance that by giving
44:18the straight truth.
44:20This look is sensational and
44:22the reference is so fun and so
44:24camp and so Australian.
44:26I love the story about the
44:28giant statues in Australia. I really
44:30have to go on Down Under. Everything's bigger
44:32Down Under. Oh.
44:34Where's my ticket?
44:36After I
44:38was told that you were a pit crew
44:40gone doll, I saw
44:42the way that you worked with
44:44all of the things that were stacked against you.
44:46I love the way that you did the big hair
44:48hiding the shoulders. Big
44:50earrings hiding the shoulders.
44:52You know, you...
44:54And I'm not reading
44:56you. Big hips hiding the
44:58shoulders.
45:02Thank you, queens.
45:04While you untuck in the work room, the judges
45:06will deliberate.
45:12Drinky drink. Look at that. I can
45:14pick it up. Ay. Getting to
45:16be critiqued by TS, who
45:18is drag race royalty,
45:20it's a crazy experience.
45:22She's an icon.
45:24Truly. To hear
45:26her say so many complimentary things
45:28about strengths, even about weaknesses
45:30and how to, like, play off
45:32them both, that makes my
45:34heart sing. Nikayla, how did it
45:36feel to have her sing your praises right
45:38to your face? I feel like my critiques
45:40were really good. Obviously
45:42they wanted more, which does
45:44kind of scare me a little bit because
45:46we were all so good. Like they're splitting
45:48hair. Yeah. This is such an
45:50even across the board
45:52challenge. And also
45:54the runways were so good.
45:56They were all, like, top tier
45:58runways. At this point in time,
46:00I'm kind of on cloud
46:02nine. Like, I really am
46:04starting to feel the power of, like,
46:06what I've achieved.
46:08At this point in time in the competition, I've
46:10come too far. I don't want
46:12to go home, and I'm not going to go home.
46:14Yesterday was, like, some of the most fun
46:16I've had. I feel like I was the most
46:18comfortable in myself I've been so
46:20far in this competition, and I'm
46:22so happy they loved this look.
46:24This is amazing.
46:26Did you make this? Yeah, it's all
46:28hand-painted, hand-sculpted.
46:30I feel
46:32on top of the world, and
46:34I'm realizing I could really take
46:36this thing. I think
46:38I probably have
46:40the weakest of the critiques out of everyone.
46:42I know in
46:44that challenge, I held
46:46back a lot. I definitely think that
46:48this might be my second
46:50lip-sync moment. Everyone loved
46:52the look, minus Brooke.
46:54She might not like this look, but
46:56I am obsessed with it.
46:58I feel regal. I feel
47:00beautiful. So I'm, like,
47:02I'm feeling nervous,
47:04like, that it really hurts to
47:06be put in this, like, mental
47:08place. I'm a little frustrated
47:10listening to Perla. She's
47:12doing what I was doing a few weeks ago,
47:14which was just hearing actual
47:16constructive criticism
47:18as negative. Brooke just said
47:20she didn't get statuesque from your look.
47:22She didn't say she didn't love it, because how
47:24could you not? You look like a fashion model.
47:26I think you might just be being hard on yourself.
47:28They did give you a lot of positive critiques.
47:30I think our conversation
47:32getting ready for the runway
47:34brought up a lot of
47:36feelings of insecurity
47:38in her again. Honestly, after
47:40hearing everyone's take on
47:42the critiques, I don't know who
47:44is going to be lip-syncing, but we all
47:46better learn the song or know the song.
47:48It's a five-way lip-sync. Everyone
47:50pick a square. Don't leave it.
47:52All right.
47:54Just between us loons, what do we
47:56think? Let's start with Helena
47:58Poison. She really
48:00understood the assignment this week.
48:02She was sassy. She
48:04read the girls, and she
48:06got some beautiful heartfelt moments in there as well.
48:08She's been, like, sitting in
48:10the rocket ship, just, like, waiting
48:12to take off. And tonight, she
48:14just went straight to the moon.
48:16Sitting in an ensemble cast,
48:18watching the girls
48:20all work together, and then looking for
48:22that one standout person,
48:24she did that for me. Baby,
48:26she is a fierce queen. And that
48:28runway, girl.
48:30Her runway look was so elevated.
48:32It was just an absolute chef's kiss for me.
48:34Let's talk about Perla,
48:36our little pocket rocket.
48:38She's been in the bottom. She's been in the
48:40top. She's won a challenge. So she's
48:42kind of been all over the place. I still
48:44don't know if I have a sense of who
48:46she is. In the talk show,
48:48I just needed her to go in a little
48:50bit more. When you're down to five,
48:52this is not the time to be shy.
48:54Right. This is time to bring the
48:56big guns. I liked her
48:58look from a fashion perspective, because I
49:00knew as soon as she walked out that it was
49:02Schiaparelli. It was all of those
49:04references she gave us. But it didn't give me
49:06a statue-esque.
49:08And compared to everything else on the runway
49:10that we saw,
49:12it was lackluster.
49:14Let's talk the Virgo queen.
49:16You know, Virgo's coming off a tough couple of
49:18weeks, but she has turned it
49:20around. She's always kind of like
49:22looking like she's got a secret. She's
49:24kind of like, I know something you don't know.
49:26But the thing about it, she does.
49:28She does. It's that it factor.
49:30It's that she knows she's got it all in her.
49:32She was funny. She was
49:34heartfelt. She was sweet. She was
49:36playful. She was so poised.
49:38I really liked the way that
49:40she sat there in the middle and
49:42said, I'm the star of this whole show.
49:44And this runway tonight, this
49:46golden goddess, like, she
49:48really committed to this runway.
49:50What do we think about Miss
49:52Michaela Couture? Here's the
49:54thing. Michaela is beautiful.
49:56She's witty.
49:58She's smart. I think she has
50:00surface-level confidence, but I don't think that she
50:02has an understanding of her presence
50:04yet. We see it for her.
50:06But she needs to believe it.
50:08Sometimes when people feel like they have so much
50:10to live up to, they're too
50:12busy trying to get to that point
50:14instead of living in the moment.
50:16But her runway?
50:18Oh, I bow to the queen.
50:20She came out.
50:22She ate that up. Next up,
50:24Minnie Wang.
50:26Is it really Minnie?
50:28Minnie's not coming to play.
50:30You know? She's like this quiet,
50:32fabulous storm that's just brewing.
50:34It's interesting that she is not
50:36a working queen, so this is not how she makes her
50:38money. She's literally here
50:40for the art. Right, right, right.
50:42I think it's kind of served her
50:44to not be deep into
50:46the drag world, you know?
50:48She's such a
50:50smart queen in so many
50:52ways that we've seen so many
50:54different sides of her drag,
50:56but there's still always this core
50:58authenticity of
51:00who she is.
51:02All right, I think we've made our decision.
51:04Bring back
51:06our girls. Hold up, honey.
51:08That's my line.
51:10Bring back our girls.
51:12Welcome
51:14back, queens. Based on your
51:16performance in the challenge and your runway
51:18presentations, we have made
51:20some decisions. The Virgo
51:22Queen, your goddess look
51:24was heavenly, and in the
51:26talk show, you really did
51:28yourself justice.
51:30Helena Poison, in the challenge
51:32you served talking head,
51:34and on the runway, you were
51:36stone cold stunning.
51:38Helena Poison,
51:40congratulations!
51:42You are the winner of this week's
51:44Maxi Challenge. Oh, finally!
51:46I'm proud of you!

51:50secured my spot in the final four.
51:52Feels correct. It feels very
51:54correct. You have won
51:56actually, to tell
51:58you what you've won...
52:00Oh, my God!
52:02Oh, wow!

52:06Hey, everybody! Oh, wow!
52:08Jimbo!
52:10What the fuck is Jimbo doing here?

52:20Oh, my God!
52:22Sponsored by House of Jimbo,
52:24and of course, my golden boobies.
52:26I was gonna say golden boobies. Yay!
52:28They're priceless. Thank you!
52:30Oh, wow!
52:32I have $5,000 and a box of
52:34titties from Jimbo!
52:36You're rich now!
52:38You look gorgeous, Jimbo!
52:40Oh, so do you! We could be twins!
52:42We could be!
52:44You wanna try on this crown?
52:48Thank you, Jimbo. We are so proud
52:50of you. Thank you!
52:52Thank you so much for eliminating me!
52:54Anytime! Speaking of which,
52:56sashay away.
52:58Why?!
53:00Alright, I guess
53:02I'll go. Bye, Jimbo!
53:04Thank you!
53:06I'm a
53:08winner, baby! Yay!
53:10See you later!
53:12Congrats,
53:14Helena. You may move to the
53:16back of the stage. Thank you all so much.
53:20Take my bin of money
53:22and titties.
53:26Virgo Queen, you are safe.
53:30Congrats, babe.
53:34Mini Wang,
53:36you are safe.
53:42That means Perla,
53:44Michaela Couture, you are both up
53:46for elimination.
53:48Two queens stand
53:50before us.
53:52Prior to tonight, you were asked
53:54to prepare a lip sync performance
53:56of Desperate Measures by
53:58Marianas Trench. This is
54:00your last chance to impress us
54:02and save yourself from
54:04elimination.
54:06The time has come
54:08for you to
54:10lip sync
54:12for your
54:14life.
54:16Good luck.
54:18And don't fuck
54:20it up.
54:22Gonna make

57:05You may join the others.
57:09Perla, the world is your oyster.
57:18And we can't wait to see how you make it shine.
57:21I love you all.
57:22You're a fucking icon.
57:23Thank you, baby.
57:24Just everything you say is so good.
57:26Now sashay away.
57:27I love you, Perla.
57:28I love you.
57:29I love you all.
