After watching this week’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race, I can now tell you who I want, and who I feel deserves to be both America’s Next Drag Super Star and Miss Congeniality. And it’s not even one of my top three picks. It’s one of the under-dogs, CoCo, Jinkx, or Alaska. By the end of this episode, one of these girls shined bright like a diamond, and one of them turned out to be a piece of coal, needing more time to grow into the future diamond she can possibly be, possibly.
Episode 10 of RuPaul’s Drag Race - Season 5, titled “Super Trooper”, paid homage to gay men in the military. Being fit is the one universal requirement for any man to be in the military. So, for the mini-challenge, RuPaul sent the girls through a mock boot-camp, where they were exercised to the point of exhaustion by Los Angeles fitness trainer, Storm. The girl who could exercise for the longest would be the winner of the mini-challenge. It ended up being Alaska, surprisingly.
