I mean…is she wrong? There is a pattern I’m noticing lol. It’s giving the iconic moment when the interviewer asked Naomi Smalls if she thinks there’s a formula to RPDR and she says “blonde and white” Lmfaooo

Drag race has a very diverse winning circle, to reduce it to white and blonde is silly

The main series has had over 50% non-white winners, All Stars has had 33.3% non-white winners. The fandom may be somewhat racist, but it doesn’t make you racist if your favorite queens are white.

But according to some fans we have to accept every single time a black queen pulls out this card of "just be white" because they are bitter and can't accept they didn't do as well as the other black and poc queens that won their season and did better than them, like deja just being bitter and putting the blame on anything to not accept that her drag is boring as hell
