Drag Race stars rally to support Tia Kofi after hateful abuse

Drag Race stars rally to support Tia Kofi after hateful abuse
Tumblr media
Tia Kofi’s drag sisters have rallied to support the Drag Race UK vs the World winner after she copped vile abuse following the finale.
UK queen Tia won RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs The World season two over the weekend.
The finale was a real nail-biter, with Tia and Aussie Hannah Conda ending up in the final lip sync together.
The pair earlier beat La Grande Dame and Marina Summers in the series of lip sync eliminations.
But online in the Drag Race fandom, things took a dark turn after the result was announced.
The usual “my pick was robbed” discourse escalated into some very nasty – and racist – abuse against Tia.
Tia herself responded to one post on Twitter X that was so disgusting the account holder was suspended for it.
“Let’s not. For real though, let’s absolutely not do this. At all. Ever again,” Tia wrote.
“Drag is meant to fun, enjoyable and entertaining. Do not behave like this.”
RuPaul’s Drag Race queens call out the hate
Finalist Marina Summers, from the Philippines, also rallied her fans to support Tia.
“I am so proud of each of my sisters for putting out an amazing season for everyone to enjoy,” Marina wrote on X.
“I would appreciate if everyone show the same amount of love and respect I have for these amazing queens.
“@TiaKofi is an amazing person with the kindest heart who doesn’t deserve any form of hate. And that goes to ALL of my UKVTW 2 Sisters.
“This should be a time to celebrate. This is drag. We should ENJOY it!”
Season two sisters Scarlet Envy, Arantxa Congenial-La Mancha and Choriza May also hit out at the “disgraceful” comments in fiery posts.
Hello loves! It’s been a wild 24 or so hours since the Finale of @dragraceukbbc I am so proud of each of my sisters for putting out an amazing season for everyone to enjoy. And I would appreciate if everyone show the same amount of love and respect I have for these amazing queens… pic.twitter.com/LNi6Bjnu7I

Couldn’t fit all this into one tweet. Please be kind!!! Sending love to our new QUEEN of the MotherTucking World @TiaKofi ❤️❤️❤️ pic.twitter.com/MlbBIR4bNO

I don’t care if ur a fan. If I see one nasty disgusting racist comment you will be dealt with, baby. 🫶 this Miss Congeniality comes with extra trans violence and will defend her friends no matter what.
— Arantxa Congenial-La Mancha (@arantxaclm) April 1, 2024
If u are sharing hate because of last night’s result, u have no space in the world of love & fun we’ve created through Drag. Some comments we’ve seen are DISGRACEFUL, u should be ashamed. Have a favourite & send them ❤️ without bringing other’s spirit down. Karma will get u.
— Choriza May (@chorizamay) March 30, 2024
Tia Kofi reacts to Drag Race win
After the Drag Race UK vs the World win, Tia said, “It means the world to me to win, it’s the perfect culmination of years of dedicating myself to drag and working hard at myself inside and outside.
“The one thing that watching the show taught me about myself was that even in hard times, I can still put a brave face on it.
“Aside from that, I feel like being the first winner of colour in the UK is game-changing. To give people who look like me that representation, it’s really special, and something that I take extremely seriously.
“I want to be that beacon that shows we can all, no matter where we come from or what we look like, achieve our dreams.”

Drag/Drag Queen Masterlist
Aria in the Snow (ao3) - Eavans
Summary: If you asked most people of Daniel J. Howell’s lot in life, they’d tell you it was pretty good. A small career writing for a fashionable magazine, the heir to one of New York’s most prestigious hotels, the convenience of youth and an ailing millionaire father… what more could an 18-year-old ask for?
So when a night at the symphony turns into the start of a whole new double life in the city’s queer underworld, the heir to New York’s most fashionable hotel will have to learn what is what when you're dating a cabaret singer, and who is who when that singer becomes a troubled star.
So it’s nothing but fate to blame when things start to fall apart. The catch? It’s the last half of the 1920s—
And this romance is illegal.
Black Velvet (ao3) - Nefertiti1052 (Succubusphan)
Summary: Phil is a successful photographer who just landed a photo shoot with his muse: Rupaul’s Drag Race winner, Obsidian Rose. Will he be able to win a place in her heart as well?
break free (ao3) - wiccamoody
Summary: Dan is a competitor on the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
Dance for me? (ao3) - orphan_account
Summary: Murder, intrigue, and a dashingly charming police officer- all Dan needs.
The scene is set- a series of murders in 1922, an undercover officer who's discovering that he may not be as straight as he thought, a gorgeous young drag queen, and a budding romance between furtive glances over shoulders. Detective Phil Lester is sent to bust a drag ball, but instead is drawn into the eyes of Daniel Howell. He makes an impulsive choice, and begs the young man to help him- the murders are stacking up, and Phil needs a partner.
Dan, of course, agrees. How could anyone resist the deep blue eyes of someone that swept you off your feet?
Drag Me (Wattpad) - natwhatacat
Summary: Phil Lester is a drag queen. What happens when the school bully Dan Howell shows up to the show one night?
Dude Looks Like a Lady (2) (3) (4) (5)- catlester
Summary: Dan is a drag queen.
For The Gods (ao3) - danrifics
Summary: Dan and Phil's son, Evan, is in the top 4 of RuPaul's Drag Race UK. This weeks task is 'Family makeovers' and Dan volunteers to be Dragified.
I Make These High Heels Work (ao3) - orphan_account
Summary: Dan explores his more feminine side when he gets a day off and spends it in from of a mirror in a dress and heels.
Just Another Drag Queen (ao3) - iamthechickenqueen
Summary: The Fantastic Foursome find themselves in a complicated whirlwind of love, deception and men dressed as women
Kiss Me on the Mouth (And Set Me Free) (ao3) - xoPrincessKayxo
Summary: Dan finally manages to get an invitation to The Underground, an extremely exclusive club. While there, he is mesmerized by Luna, a captivating drag queen that looks a lot like the gorgeous stranger he met earlier that night
Shante, you stay (ao3) - danrifics
Summary: Dan and Phil's son is a drag queen know as Betta Norman
some killer queen you are (ao3) - possumdnp
Summary: Dan’s enjoyed taking a break from YouTube, but for some reason, he still feels like something is missing. Determined to fill the creative void in his life, he decides to try out something new: drag.
The Birdcage (ao3) - sadlybunny
Summary: Phil Lester is the owner of the popular drag club, The Birdcage. Dan Howell, his long term partner, is the headlining queen “Amethyst Star”. But when Phil’s son comes to them with important news, their relationship is threatened by the promise of new in-laws who might not know that Phil is gay.
Walk Like A Man (ao3) - Spiteful_Letters
Summary: Phil is a drag queen named Phillippa Treasure.
Dan is just very confused.
we break the dawn (ao3) - templeofshame
Summary: The last time Dan was here without a tour hanging over his head, he wasn’t even watching Drag Race, let alone ready to be spotted in the crowd at a drag show. Tonight, if someone recognizes them, asks for a photo, even takes a creepshot… they can knock themselves out. There’s no limit to how queer Dan and Phil can be in public, not anymore.

I am really enjoying RuPaul's Drag Race UK vs. The World, Series 2. I think I've been able to just have fun with it. It doesn't feel like the stakes are as high as on the sixteenth season of the US flagship, and it's nice to have something more chill to watch, even though I'm sure the contestants did not experience it that way.
There were a lot of looks on this episode, but the two that really stuck in my brain were this one from Keta Minaj and Tia Kofi's, though I admit that I'm highly biased towards Tia. She's one of the main reasons I was interested in tuning into the entire season.
I thought La Grand Dame's look was cool, but I felt like we've seen it before on both Drag Race and Dragula.

Canada’s Drag Race: Canada VS The World Review
This post has spoilers for Canada VS The World and CAST spoilers for Rupaul’s Drag Race All Stars 8, also take this as a general spoiler warning for the franchise as a whole.
Tumblr media
So I’ve been working on a huge Rupaul’s Drag Race review project where I review episodes based on specific criteria and I figured I’d post my ratings of the most recently finished season as well as share some of my thoughts on the vs the world series and the eventually the wider franchise. I’d like to use this review to introduce and demonstrate the rate system as well as provide some cool write-ups.
I rate each episode in four categories, 1-5 for each. These are the basic categories I believe make a good episode of Drag Race:
Funny - Self explanatory
Fashion - I consider only official runways, seeing as challenge outfits are usually supposed to be silly and it’s hard to judge the two things at once
Fun - I usually consider the actual structure of the episode in terms of production for this, are the challenges interesting, was the runway category a good idea how did the contestants act on the episode in response to these things, etc
Fierce - Rated based on emotional resonance. This can mean storylines, lip-syncs, drama, narrative/production decisions, other contestant behavior. Kind of an “X-Factor” category.
Tumblr media
My Canada VS The World Rate Table
I found Canada VS The World to be pretty disappointing overall. Only 2 seasons into the VS The World franchise, WOW has announced Rupaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars. Based on that info, it seems to me like VS The World is over. It was an interesting experiment but it may be too tall an order to continue to fill. It must be borderline impossible coordinating different production studios in different countries and contestants allegedly straight up refusing to be on non-RuPaul hosted seasons. Then again, who knows.
I won’t lie, I was excited for Canada VS The World. After the glorious dumpster-fire of UK VS The World I was genuinely interested in how the contestants would react to the season ruiningly cut throat gameplay of the franchise’s first entry. Unfortunately- they reacted in the most boring way imaginable.
All in all, both production and cast decided this season needed to be insanely positive. To be fair, this may have been the safest decision with the way the season played out. Storylines and werk room chatter usually center around somewhat surface-level discussions of mental health and social justice topics. Do not get me wrong, I’m not some kind of edge-lord idiot that can’t handle those kinds of themes- the thing is, there was just very little else going on. The issue is that it was often the only thing anyone was interested in talking about.
Here’s the thing- reality television is hard to make. I’m not saying the contestants should have had stupid fights and fought each other all the time or that production should have caused conflict. I just think there weren’t many interesting narratives present at all until the end. There’s an element of this that is kind of just random. A lack of interesting narrative in the real world during filming just happens sometimes and that’s fine, but it doesn’t mean the season is going to be interesting to watch. It’s a lot of people talking about their “truth” and their “journeys” (Icesis specifically did this a lot). Maybe this is just a me thing but over-reliance on pop-health/wellness language like this usually annoys and bores me. Especially when it’s in service of branding and marketing.
Arguably the most satisfying and interesting narrative through-line was Silky Nutmeg Ganache’s story of overcoming her fan-perception from her two previous Drag Race seasons. It’s interesting to hear the contestants talk about the consequences of their appearances on reality TV and I felt like it was a responsible and surprising production decision to focus on it so heavily. Then again- if the best part of a season is based on other seasons... that may not be the best sign. Combined with her clearly improved runway presentations, it was all the more anticlimactic when she did better in the final lip-sync (imo) and still didn’t win the whole thing. I guess production thought Ra’jah D O’Hara was a safer bet. Silky was the star of CVTW for me.
Tumblr media
Silky Nutmeg Ganache for the Queen of The World Category
Canada VS The World revealed some innate problems with the VS The World format (originally created for Rupaul’s Drag Race All Stars 2). The Lip Sync For Your Legacy format basically forces the cast to play nice with each other every single week- or face the wrath of both their fellow cast and online fandom. This format can create some pretty insane television moments (see Manila Luzon’s All Stars 4 elimination, Pangina Heals and Jimbo’s UKVTW eliminations, etc). I think the shorter episode counts of VS The World are why it’s not working as well and why the queens of CTVW seemingly refused to play dirty or to play interesting. 10 episodes gives much more breathing room for relationships and conflicts to develop over time, 6 episode season are simply too over and done with for anything that interesting to happen without throwing off the seasons. 
UK VS The World’s shockingly competitive gameplay early on ruined the season in the long-run since the finalists who did really well for the first half of the seasons were almost all eliminated, spelling disaster for viewers as the finalists weren’t very many contestants who had actually excelled at the competition. CANVTW has the opposite problem, nobody wanted to repeat the previous season’s mistakes and therefore there’s zero strategy or drama in the eliminations. Basically what I’m saying is this format doesn’t work in these micro-seasons.
Another issue that makes this even worse is Icesis Couture’s self elimination. It felt tonally strange threw the season w a y off as well as eliminated one of the few frontrunners, leaving only a couple contestants who had done very well to be finalists. I’m absolutely not invalidating Icesis’ decision to quit, I think it’s cool as fuck of her, but the season was just so much less competitive after she left- and likely pushed Rita Baga into the top as the Canadian finalist. This effected the my rate of the season pretty negatively overall as I don’t enjoy Rita Baga’s humor or runway presentations. 
Tumblr media
Rita Baga for the Y2GAY Category
It’s clear to me that there was kind of an unspoken agreement among all the contestants to play the game basically the same way, leading to very few interpersonal conflicts and very little tension as a viewer- the elimination decision each episode was unanimous for god sake (for the first time in Drag Race h e r s t o r y). It just wasn’t engaging and it was hard to care at all in early episodes since the gap between who was performing well and who wasn’t was so wide. 
The scrappy fun of the previous the seasons of Canada’s Drag Race felt present for sure, but it was severely missing the teeth that makes reality TV interesting to watch. Boring storylines, over-reliance on sappy werk-room segments, confusing judging decisions and overdone challenges made 4/6 episodes of this season receive below average (below 3) scores. Thankfully the finale episode was a lot of fun and somewhat satisfying despite the absolutely detestable finale format of Lip Sync For The Crown- but I’ll write about that in another post. It was full of nice moments and fun production decisions as well as contestant performances. I loved Monet X Change showing up, I loved Victoria proposing to her girlfriend, I liked when the rest of the cast came back, and I loved the final lip sync.
Tumblr media
On the winner: Ra’jah O’hara is the first multinational triple-season complete winner arc, which is unprecedented so far on Drag Race, but I have a feeling we’ll be seeing more of these in the future. Ra’jah was my pre-season pick, but I felt her All Stars 6 showing was more deserving of a crown- and I don’t like wins that feel honorary or based on extra-textual context. They are lame.
Tumblr media
Ra’Jah D Ohara for the Plaid Girls Club Category
I feel like I’ve been harsh, so here are some
Things I liked:
- Victoria Scone was great on this season and I’m glad we got to see a lot of her even if I don’t always like her sense of humor.
- The cast was one of the most diverse ever, which is very cool. It’s important for the art form and for the show to showcase as wide an array of points of views and aesthetics as possible, there’s still a long way to go though obviously though.
- The finale episode
- Silky, Ra’jah, and Icesis on the runway
Final Stats:
The lowest possible score is 1, the highest is 5. These averages are calculated from each of my rates in each respective category in each episode.
Funny: 2.5
Fashion:  3.166666667
Fun:  2.333333333
Fierce:  2.833333333
Overall Score:  2.708333333 on a scale of 1 to 5
Afterword:
Those acting challenges are still SO HORRIBLE I don’t even know how they could fix them at this point. It’s just kind of an inherently bad structure for a challenge I think. Also the humor of the US judges is bad but I’m not sure it reaches the soulless phoning in of the Canadian drag race judges. Part of my idea for rebooting the show includes abandoning those stupid fucking runway comments the judges are always making. Genuinely makes the show hard to even watch sometimes. I’ve heard some people watch this on mute.
I don’t think Canada VS The World was very good overall but I guess I’m happy Ra’jah finally has a crown.

The 26-year-old became the first-ever Scottish champion of the competition series last year, with Bimini Bon-Boulash and Tayce coming as runners-up. Since ruling the beloved show, the queen has enjoyed a slew of TV…
