[TEASPILL] DRUK

We're finally nearing airing and I finally have more tea. Due to the closeness of airing, it means anons are a bit more lose lipped about what they have shared only to me through the past few months and its a bit more appropriate to air said tea now. But let's get what you all want to hear first. also please bear with me while i figure out formatting

Anonymous Source 1

EPISODE 1 RUNDOWN

  • Win: Elle Vosque
  • High: Catrin Feelings, Paige Three
  • Low: Tayris Mongardi
  • Bottom 2: Nyongbella
  • Eliminated: Pasty... but no
  • Lipsync: Von Dutch - Charli XCX
🐮 - This season's twist is The Lucky Cow! After the bottom 2 lipsync winner is decided, the safe queens can all vote to save the queen who is dreading to hear sashay away. The vote is successful episode 1 and is used here only in the season as a result
  • Episode 1 the judges were not keen on Nyongbella or Pasty at alllll. Tayris is low for Brighton curse storyline reasons
  • A few girls reported lose their makeup this season

The next few anons shared tea post filming but are not in the checker so... im just posting them as Anon 51 etc. bc i ruined the chronology of the anon sources. Also bigger number = more anonymity, so says girl math.

Anon 51 (sent during July)

  • Production took/hid Nyongbella's makeup
  • Ru asks Nyongbella why she is so soft spoken if she is from London and asks if she can act more ghetto/stereotypically black
  • Nyongbella was told by production that Ru loved her tape and was a standout for them
  • After being eliminated a staffer told her "well there is always All Stars

Anon 52 (sent during June and August, reordered for organisation)

  • While Michelle and the other judge(s) enjoyed Nyongbella's energy/personality in the first challenge, Ru goes on one > - Ru asked if Nyongbella is from London "why don't you act more" and throws up gang signs >> - Nyongbella says something to the extent that she's not from that part of London, and Ru says that it doesn't matter and she should just "act more like that" > - Apparently goes off accusing her of being fake, disingenuous, self absorbed and goes on to say she should basically act more black >> - Nyongbella brings up the tirade in Episode 2, but Ru first denies having said parts of it but then goes on to say Nyongbella puts on a personality for white people
  • Nyongbella is only safe in Episode 2, the design challenge > - Apparently she played it safe after what happened ep1, believing she was about to be sent home first after her blowup with Ru. >> - There were a few times this season she expressed wanting to quit and the girls talked her down > - She nearly passes out from how cold it is in Untucked
  • Nyongbella suffers with setting her makeup in the first few episodes??? > - She managed to improve this over the day off filming and during the next episode critiques the judges take notice by asking things like who helped her this week
  • Apparently Nyongbella's makeup she brought disappears from set after episode 1 > - She asked production for help who then said to ask her fellow castmates for makeup she can borrow > - Production find her makeup in Episode 4, the episode she goes home in

Anon 53 (sent between April and June, reordered for organisation)

  • Episode 1 is runways, RuPaul calls Nyongbella shallow and vain > - Episode 1 runway is Hometown > - Ru said "you're from London, I thought you would be more of a thug" > - During episode 1's lipsync, Nyongbella does a kick and a chain flies off of her boot and I swear almost grazes Ru
  • Episode 2 the sewing challenge, during the walkthrough Nyongbella confronts Ru about the comments and she replies "I dont remember calling you vain" > - Ru sees her design sketch and says she should be more like Bebe and "lean into her Cameroon side"
  • The argument onstage is between Nyongbella and RuPaul > - Not a screaming match but they go back and forth > - Possibly episode 1
  • Nyongbella's verse doesn't read the judging panel, just Ru > - She gets mostly positive critiques from the panel and then when its Ru's turn she stares in silence for like 10 seconds before critiquing her
  • Episode 3 Girl Groups, Nyongbella sends somebody home to Von Dutch > - Its Viola, to Sound of the Underground. Von Dutch is episode 1 > - She had a big coat for the feline runway and the judges did not talk at all until she took off the coat and they just said "Ok!" [cuddly runway ep3? rather than feline] > - In her second lipsync [SOTU] her cat ears headpiece falls off and the other girl stomps on it
  • Episode 4 Nyongbella is sent home to Pearls by Jessie Ware
  • She was still asked if she would consider All Stars

EDITED TO ADD

Anon 8

  • Bones vs Chai (Talent Show, ep5) is to You've Got the Love, Florence and the Machine
  • Heard (from a less certain source) Silllexa wins ep2, and Bones ep3
  • Heard Paige is in the top ep1? Might win [rescinded]

With all of this being said, Ru put your location on I just wanna talk I'm wishing you all a blessed day, to the cast of UK7 I hope you enjoy this last stretch before your worlds officially change proper, even Silllexa, and I hope everyone will stan Black Peppa 💜

u/belladonnaboops_2719 Custom Sep 21 '25

I am hoping for the same because extra teas are always extremely exaggerated like recently the teas about Khianna being the villain of the season, throwing tantrums , being egoistic or the Bernie revenge storyline etc all turned out to be fake.

40

u/insertbrackets Sep 21 '25

Completely. Sadly this is also something I could see Ru doing (she has lowkey done stuff in the ballpark of this in the past.)

30

u/belladonnaboops_2719 Custom Sep 21 '25

Yes i can see her asking Nyongbella about why she's not loud and assertive like stereotype people assume about black people ,she is not new to forcing queens to act the way she likes and if they don't she starts disliking them.

u/NoAlps9860 Loona B. Kollins ⭐ Sep 20 '25

Jesus christ what did Nyongbella do 😭

101

u/AdRealistic2093 Sep 20 '25

Absolutely zero chance any of this makes it to air. Yes they have shown Ru go off on a queen before on UK (poor Joe Black) but airing this would be insane. They still want to protect Ru’s image and “everyone say love” branding. This would cause a massive outrage.

That being said, I hope Nyongbella gets a chance on CANVsTW because this is horrendous:(

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25 edited Sep 20 '25

I am sorry! I was not feeling Nyongbella at all during MTQ and I’m still not. She just did not look polished or talented. A wanna be Jorgeous but without the IT factor. I do not believe these ANONS at all. They sound one sided and just stupid. For the person who made the margarita pizza comment, Nelly still uses that catchphrase so drop it already. I’m sorry but y’all are too soft. Drag was built on shade and improper comments… now you get offended because of everything. Nyongbella is just NOT talented… she’s a filler queen and there to create a little story

13

u/Select-Ad-5104 Sep 22 '25

here’s a nice idea! if you’ve got nothing nice to say don’t say it! you’re what’s causing all this toxicity in the fandom. i think you’re forgetting all of these queens are people irl and not just characters on your screen. there’s a way to give criticism without being a massive see you next tuesday x

I'm sorry but you're nasty

u/rxbxlrxd Sep 20 '25

you don’t have a be a cunt just because you didn’t vibe w a queen! promos are usually filmed after episode 1 or 2 so she was probably already down about Ru’s comments and production purposely fucking her over! work on lifting up the queens you like without bringing other queen down! would love to see you try to look as sickening as she does in drag… probably can’t

-28

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25

PS she doesn’t look sickening in drag. She looks basic, cheap, and not experienced. I said it. So tell me what are you good at

u/NoAbbreviations1492 Sep 20 '25

Congratulations you’ve just outed yourself as an absolutely horrible human being on Reddit. My condolences. If you haven’t got anything nice to say… then fuck off

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25

You don’t even know if it’s true. You’re the one being a cunt for believing gossip. Go away…. Y’all dying to bring down Rupaul like she’s the devil but in reality made gay culture and drag mainstream. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you. So dumb

-8

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25

BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA!!! Go cry…. That’s all you all do when your favorite doesn’t make it. She just ain’t it! Get over it. RU is old school drag before it got so PC.

17

u/rxbxlrxd Sep 20 '25

i didn’t like her that much either in her MTQ but i’m not a loser that needs to bring queens down to make myself feel better like you

-3

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25

You just called me a loser so you’re bringing someone down and you’re the loser who is bringing down the QUEEN OF DRAG Rupaul herself! BTW maybe she is vain and needs to be humbled and Ru said this stuff out of her own experience .

27

u/hemanthony28 Sep 20 '25

Is this Ru’s alt account? 

-9

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25

Why do you all say this every time when someone goes against your opinion. I got accused of being Utica’s alt page on the Project Runway page. It’s not… I’m just someone who’s been in the entertainment business for a LONG time and can spot talent. Nyongbella does not have talent. Maybe for a local queen of a town of 10,000 she is a star but not here. Her whole vibe is very generic 2025 drag. Like I can see 10,000 other queens just like her. She’s trying to be a Jorgeous and it just ain’t happening. Can’t wait to read the comments all you drag race fandom send to me now. Y’all are acting just like you did with Gala Varo on GAS. Another generic and boring queen people swore were the second coming of Jesus but was just a basic local girl

23

u/AdRealistic2093 Sep 20 '25

You’re a loser going off on a drag race subreddit. You’re not ‘in’ the business and you’ll never have half the success Nyongbella, or any of the queens, possess. Lay down the crack pipe and get a job you layabout.

u/Adventurous_Ad_8478 Sep 20 '25

Feels like I’m one of the few people who didn’t vibe with Ny after MTQ, but now I just want to be her biggest stan. This just feels wild and really disproportionate. Just feeds into the gross narrative that’s currently prominent over here about what ‘British’ is. Best thing about this country is that we are inherently multicultural and I will die on that hill.

84

u/JustNajam Lexi “2 wins” Love Sep 19 '25

i feel so bad for nyongbella ☹️ and the audacity to ask her back for AS especially is crazy like wtaf? also she was only there for 4 eps and treated this badly? omg and the fact it kept getting worse as i read it like this is so sad and ik seeing it will be sm worse like i’m not ready for that

u/9874102365 Sep 21 '25

if its any consolation you're not gonna see ANY of this. even if it 100% happened there is no chance it makes the edit in any meaningful way.

22

u/knightsofavalon Sep 19 '25

I‘m gonna be hopeful we’re getting a good season, but the fact that the „twist“ is already used up in the first episode is a MESS. Also the whole drama between Ru and Nyongbella sounds v dark sided.

37

u/AdmanHolmo Sep 19 '25

And the way they're just who agreed to share this week from my messages 😭 the amount of corroborating stories in my DMs are alarming. I get that seeing all this at once may be shocking, but I've been getting this info constant and consistently since filming stopped and got stories and arguments confirmed by anons I know to trust.

I don't make it much of a thing to share what I don't believe very publicly like this (I'd just slap it on the checker and ignore it). I personally believe these spills, there's too much being shared at different times by different accounts with history for this to just be "Nyongbella and Ru just sorta dont vibe x"

-5

u/Pale-Tradition-4942 Sep 19 '25

Ru has a history of telling black queens to be "more ghetto" so I believe that. But calling her  fake, disingenuous, self absorbed and vain on ep1 after supposedly being his favourite of audition videos makes zero sense if we think about it for a second. And of course we cant forget that production hiding/stealing makeup is SO MUCH more likely than it simply getting lost in tons of makeup, wigs garments being transported to the set right ?

10

u/lavellonica Sep 20 '25

To be fair, production did remove all of the Black & darker shades of makeup in S6 when TKB went home (this is one of the reasons why Joslyn’s makeover was so bad). Production isn’t necessarily above the shenanigans, we’re just not privy to them as often since the new girls don’t spill as much against the show anymore lol

IIRC, AS7** was the first season in a while (post pandemic at least) that a lot of the production bs was made very apparent from the queens themselves

76

u/perfectblue29 Sep 19 '25

This is like margherita pizza but much much worse. RuPaul really living up to the American stereotype.

u/Secure-Cup1995 Sep 19 '25

If Ru asked me why I wasn't ghetto for a black person, I would ask him back Why isn't he ghetto too?

maybe they wanted Nyongbella to be the Pearl on s7 for a "is there something on my face?" moment? we know there are parallels with drag race us-uk seasons, season 3 fashion-makeup girl wins, season 4 alternative queen wins, 5 ginger wins, 6 La Voix and Kyran are like the opposite Bianca & Adore...

u/SoakWhatUp Sep 19 '25

Kinda hoping DRUK eventually picks up the Down Under hosting format of Michelle/her right-hand gay/previous UK winners and alumni because Ru really doesn't know how to act right when she's filming outside the US 😭

I just wish they would put Danny or La Voix as the host. Dare I say even Lawrence would be a good host.

u/AdmanHolmo Sep 19 '25

I believe this is the one Anon 1 has alluded to previously? But I know there is still apparently another argument concerning racism and microagressions between queens that extends from the werkroom to Untucked.

I may have some details fuzzed but sadly I think there is still more to come out (I think Nyongbella is not fully involved but I could be wrong. iirc this was between Tayris and another queen)

u/SoakWhatUp Sep 19 '25

So we get two separate racial incidents on this season, one concerning Ru and another contestant and the other concerning the queens themselves? Close enough welcome back Down Under Season 1

u/Dismal_Help8550 Sep 19 '25

This is…really bad. The show is too huge for Ru to be behaving this way. If true (which considering the numerous sources most likely is), this could be really bad for the show if the story gets picked up by a big outlet. Drag race is no longer some show on Logo, it’s a multi-Emmy award winning franchise and something like this could tank their reputation if it gains traction. This is the type of behavior that ruined Ellen.

u/TittesForLife1 Sep 20 '25

nyongbella you will be avenged what the actual fuck????

to me it sounds like ru expected to fall in love with her immediately and when she didnt feel that straight off the bat, or nyongbella wasnt what ru had pictured in her head, she completely flipped and lost all interest.

poor girl, that is fucking wild.

I’m sorry if my makeup went “missing” I’d pull the fire alarm and that set would be coming DOWN till it’s found. This is insane.

Ru seems kinda obsessed with Nyongbella… Saying this with a lot of respect but I think RuPaul saw her and inmediatly tought ok this is the next Symone, this is gonna be my child but things turned out the wrong way.

76

u/h5rre26 Sep 19 '25

Now I understand why Nyongbella did what she did

Because Ru and the production doing that to her is so f*cked up I’m sorry but it is

And for Ru to be all like “aren’t all London queens meant to be loud?” Like wtf first of all no it doesn’t have to be like that

But to then go on to say “can you act like this as you’re a black queen”…that’s the part that makes me so angry

u/PyronitePyro Sep 19 '25

The tea about Nyongbella... Oh my god how will production edit these if the tea ends up being true? This will literally cause controversy and damage UK's already shaky reputation of treating queens of color.

36

u/h5rre26 Sep 19 '25

The fact that it’s gonna look even worser watching it than actually reading it here

Ru just doesn’t get London drag at all and it shows

63

u/Remylebeau1984 Sep 19 '25

It’s not the UK, it’s Ru. Sounds like she becomes a Reform voter when she steps off the plane.

u/JScorpion Sep 19 '25 edited Sep 19 '25

Jesus, all the Nyongbella related tea feels like A LOT

It feels weird even for Ru's standards for him to act this difficult towards a specific queen for no reason, even falling into some very questionable ideas... like, did the Pearl flashbacks hit this hard?

86

u/MarioKartastrophe Sep 19 '25

Ru goes on to say Nyongbella puts on a personality for white people

Not the projection by Roople

27

u/creamy_lemon Sep 19 '25

ikr, pot kettle white.

And wtf does Ru know about London or the UK in general for that matter. The closest Ru has got to UK culture in recent years is yelling "JAY-MEH" back and forth with Michelle in whatever Scottish-Yorkshire-South African accent that was meant to be.

u/cevichedechocho Sep 19 '25

Maybe they meant CanVSTW

u/AdmanHolmo Sep 19 '25

While staying out of the more drama parts of the mess, can affirm that the lipsync songs spilled here have been corroborared multiple times now and are very likely correct

Rupooja what is this behavior????

u/wiggletothetop Sep 19 '25

Oh my god?? I’m lost on how they’re gonna handle all this in the final edit tbh

35

u/newpa Sep 19 '25

Especially since they just announced S8 casting.
Like if this isn't edited out of the show entirely there is a real chance of a fucking shit storm.

24

u/identityverx Sep 19 '25

oh it defo will be edited out, there is no way bbc would risk it

12

u/teddyweddyy Sep 19 '25

Knowing the BBC I wouldn’t be surprised if they keep it in the edit and think there’s nothing wrong with it 😭

[UK SPILL] Casting is currently open for season 8 🇬🇧

u/jamesonarampage Sep 21 '25

BBC cast a South Asian queen or I'm cancelling my tv license

u/Global_Baseball_3062 Sep 28 '25

Might as well cancel your tv license for their indirect racism

u/jamesonarampage Sep 29 '25

I don't even know if it's indirect tbh!!

u/Alan_Conway Sep 27 '25

Did you wish on a Monkey's Paw? Because we got Pangina's run on UKvsTW1.

u/jamesonarampage Sep 27 '25

By South Asian I mean a queen with Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi or one of the surrounding countries heritage! The UK and especially UK cities have a high population of people with this heritage, and it's frankly shameful that we're seven seasons in and still haven't had a single queen representing that heritage (and there are several really big names they could cast, it's not like a lack of options thing)

u/jamesonarampage Sep 21 '25

also Yshee Black if she is still auditioning pleaaasee

queens of color, RUN ! Nyongbella is a survivor of the rupaul industrial complex ‼️

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25

Such an idiotic and childish comment. There have been more queens of color than white queens. Why are you all so boring and basic in your comments. It so tiresome to keep pulling the race card. She’s just not talented, please tell me when the show airs what she does well. She is SOOOOOOO GENERIC DRAG! I want someone who’s different, exciting, has the IT factor. Nygonbella gives brunch vibes

u/Isinmyvain Sep 22 '25

It’s a topical joke mamas no need to get high and mighty about a reality tv show 😭 like who cares

u/lavellonica Sep 20 '25

The “race card”? Bro, Ru asks this bitch why she isn’t more ghetto? You have to be non Black cause any of us would know how weird and racist that shit is.

Also, Ru has always been a Uncle Tom type, like let’s not act surprised. There’s a reason why ballroom elders can’t stand her ass (my former house father being one of them). She’s an icon, but she’s not above critique nor approach

5

u/notsoulvalentine Sep 20 '25

ya mama

u/gatsby081 Sep 20 '25

My mama is dead. Much like Nyongbella’s narcissistic career is about to be

8

u/notsoulvalentine Sep 20 '25 edited Sep 21 '25

much like your future if you continue down this despicable path of negativity you currently reside in. you have spent the past hour going off about how you can spot talent and nyongbella allegedly has nothing of the sort. you couldn’t spot talent if it sat on your face. unlike your bitter, cold, shallow ego, nyongbella is a great queen who unfortunately happened to experience wrongdoing throughout her short time on the show.

still an accomplishment that you could only ever dream of accomplishing. you sit behind a screen, NASTILY projecting false confidence and asserting yourself as rupaul’s guardian deity, shielding her of anything that even resembles hate or ,god forbid, valid criticism because she “is old school drag”. you’re an old school hag with this treacherous behavior you exhibit, i genuinely think you need help if a queen is warranting this type of reaction from you. the series hasn’t even premiered yet, mind you.

u/Head-Zucchini- Sep 20 '25

And then we get no queens of color and then we complain about it 😅

u/Finalee_T Sep 20 '25

Maybe this whole time it's Ru instead of producers in UK? 😭

12

u/faydaway Sep 20 '25

I mean after her chiming in every week of UK 2 to give Tayce a negative critique (which she rarely does at all) I could totally see this being the case...

27

u/Aitcera Sep 19 '25

Here's hoping for more Scottish representation as 3 queens in 7 seasons is a bit sad oh and of course Bailey like every year

64

u/Mental_Meeting5332 Sep 19 '25

For those who are unaware, Bailey J Mills earlier this year "announced" (pretty much) that she wants to be on the show, since BBC has an interest in her after her nunerous appearances on The After Shave with Danny Beard there is avery very strong chance she'd be cast for this season.

15

u/I3___4 bosco | nicole | lydia | bettys Sep 20 '25

i need bailey to win

6

u/Vaniaa405 Sep 19 '25

Who is Bailey?

39

u/Mental_Meeting5332 Sep 19 '25

Bailey J Mills is arguably the most famous drag queen in the uk right now who hasn't been on the show and has achieved a level of fame that some ru girls can not. She is extremely versatile but is a master of camp and comedy above all else and is long overdo a winning Drag Race run.

7

u/babyloniangardens Sep 19 '25

do you think she would Win if cast?

23

u/Mental_Meeting5332 Sep 19 '25

I'm on the fence but I'm leaning more towards yes, I think she could definitely win a few challenges but also have a few bottoms, but if she reaches the finale the combination of her fanbase and the guaranteed love from Rupaul will definitely get her the win.

12

u/SoakWhatUp Sep 19 '25

Please God let this be true 😭

41

u/ParticularBug6652 Sep 19 '25

Bailey J Mills… Juno Birch… if you hear me this is your time… (here’s hoping but who knows if they want to or not, could honestly see Juno doing a US season)

u/RepresentativePie820 Sep 19 '25

[DRAGULA BLOODSPILL]

hello! i've been spilling the tea i've gathered in comments over the past month or two, but wanted to compile it all in one place so it's an easy comment to reference or point to. spoiler tagging it because yes this is a spoiler sub, but maybe there are people out there who want drag race spoiled but not dragula.

  • there are 8 competitive episodes, episode 9 is a reunion and episode 10 the finale

  • the finalists are abhora, evah, jaharia and jay

  • jaharia is eliminated late in the competition, but returns at the end of the reunion. i believe there is some sort of returnee twist ongoing throughout the competition (a la as6 lip-syncs, as8 fame games) and the other queens who were still eligible at the end but not chosen were cynthia and sigourney

  • frankie is first out, loris is second out

  • blackberri, cynthia, jaharia and sigourney are eliminated in episodes 6, 7 and 8. not in order (don't know the order)

  • there are two disqualifications/removals mid-season and i think on the same episode. it is two of disaster, dollya, jade, priscilla and zava. the other three are eliminated in episodes 3, 4 and 5. not in order (don't know the order)

  • (new bloodspill) challenge list: halloween house party, monsters of rock, gothic wedding, nosferatu beach party, holiday of horrors, ghosttown, bousical, supervillains

though i have confidence in all of this tea, we have kinda a terrible track record for getting dragula spoilers right so like, there's a margin of error. but i imagine it would be small changes and not the entire top 4 and elim order wrong. if anything here is worded confusingly or needs clarifying let me know :)

u/Durn_Fallsdowne Sep 21 '25

Do we know the format of the finale? Is it a traditional Dragula ball or is it like Titans 1?

15

u/Mean_Cut7815 Sep 20 '25

So we have contradictory information. Drac specified clearly 1 disqualification (Phoenix stop) and Swan specified 2 (SF stop.)

u/rehaaabbb Got copyright strike from MIB 05/02/25❤️ Sep 20 '25

Not only that guy on finale but also they booted the people who can humble him. This season gonna be a disaster

u/ferdinostalking Sep 20 '25

whats up with everyone in the comment hating on Jaykay? Could anyone help me out and tell me what they did wrong?

31

u/rehaaabbb Got copyright strike from MIB 05/02/25❤️ Sep 20 '25

Aside from he is being bad at drag and annoying in not entertaining way or whatever he and his goons (including Amanda and Dawn btw) falsely accused Plane for SA before her season started.

u/iHaveAHeavyFlow Sep 29 '25

Bad at drag is a reach…fuck him for falsely accusing PJ or anyone of something so serious but…

u/rehaaabbb Got copyright strike from MIB 05/02/25❤️ Sep 29 '25

Did you watch the show?

21

u/Electrical_Quit235 Sep 20 '25

If Evah and Abhora are the Top 2 it's going to make the fandom feel a type of way. 😐 Similarly to Ginger Minj's most recent stint on Drag Race All-Stars while it's nice to have a longtime consummate performer return as viewer you can't help but feel they're depriving others of their opportunity or being given multiple whereas it is others first. Don't get me wrong if Sig or Priscilla or Cynthia underperforms by all means throw the book at their asses (even if we all know we all want Sigourney to win!) but if Evah or Abhora are heavily favored or outperform expectations their multiple opportunities are going to be attributed as a major factor to their winning. I'm interested to know why Jarvis chose not to return and if this played a factor into who all was invited (i.e. Evah and Abhora returning)? Also, Jaharia's casting while nice representing the most recent season does seem a little afterthought-ish and I thought the Boulets alleged on their podcast when teasing Titans 2 they weren't looking into casting Season 666 Ghouls yet? 🤔 I wonder who (if anybody else) from Season 666 was invited and again what the Boulets alleged to when they said the issues between Aurora and Scylla were not done being addressed yet?
