Week 9 brings the Semi Finals and a roast with a theme! It’s time to feel the cleansing power of reading your sister into the dirt while standing at an extremely small podium for the 'Karma's a B*tch Comedy Roast.' All the eliminated queens return to watch the festivities from the front row (while being filmed from the side…oof). And on the runway, the category is English Garden Party Realness, and Alaska and Willam debate...

What exactly is a Hun? Willam and Alaska are poised to find out as Ru challenges her UK queens to give them a makeover this week. From sheep, to color blocked cover-ups, to vampire incest, the queens aim to show off that Drag Family Resemblance on the runway for the judges. But the real show stopper (and not in a good way) is Bonnie Ann Clyde’s half and half look that just doesn’t hit. How can one explain it? No panties, t...
It’s time for a little Hot Goss! Alaska and Willam chat about dial up internet, short hair gigs, and receiving a correspondence from the one and only Nyongbella! Plus they make plans to attend the Jessica Simpson Meet and Greet at the Glendale Galleria this weekend, realize the brilliant marketing strategy of 'All’s Fair' getting a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, and try to understand if Suzie Toot is a 'demonic Betty Bop' or not. ...
It’s Chair B*tch! After a mini challenge full of reads in the werkroom, Ru tasks the queens to show off their best celebrity impersonations for a Snatch Game dating game hybrid called “Snatch Me Out!” There are some questionable character choices and a broad range of success as some queens deliver a master class in comedy and others just ‘wing it’ with disastrous results. And the runway is giving ‘Ho Ho Ho Couture’ before ...

Plus they go spelunking in the DM’s without even opening up the inbox! Cue the soundboard, it’s time for some Hot Goss!
The DRUK Season 7 girls tap into their West End tendencies for a campy and crude send up of Peter Pan in this panto-inspired Rusical performance full of aging twinks, smelly fairies, and a horny old dog. Alaska and Willam want to know if the singing was actually live, did the right girl go home, and based on these Warrior Queen looks on the runway…who is really ready to live passionately tonight.

What’s better than a Drag Race green screen acting challenge? Apparently a lot! Episode 4 of Drag Race UK Season 7 asks the queens to act in romance novel inspired ‘Ladies of the 80’s’ camp skits featuring huge shoulder pads and crusty wigs. One could argue the competitive nature of Drag Race does not foster a vibrant creative environment. And the runway is a tribute to the iconic TV show ‘Absolutely Fabulous’ which left W...
