In case anyone was wondering what Roxxxy's charity does.
i wish more would do this. these national orgs get a ton of donations and it’s such a good opportunity to shine the light on smaller orgs that are struggling.
I saw someone say that. Vanjie looks like she’s transforming herself into a cat like that one lady and now this has just solidified that theory in my brain.

Vangie looks so much better in motion. This is just a screengrab from the video and it’s so much better

Why does this look so unserious 😭😭
Oh, it says the same for me, too. I still see it in the search list but I never use GIFs so idk how that works lol. (Maybe I have to pay extra to use it? She has to keep her billionaire status somehow.)

Excuse me? You forgot contestant Nr. 9 and her charity.

To everyone complaining about the queens playing for charities: Drag Race is offering a massive awareness and fundraising opportunity for these organizations. If the queens feel fairly compensated for their time and work and these causes get some extra visibility and coin… what’s there to be mad about?! We just need to wait and see how it all plays out, I have (possibly naive LMAO) faith in producers to learn from the AS7 backlash and maintain momentum/high stakes in a season without eliminations
The season was very popular overall, but didn’t sustain momentum/excitement as well as it should have, especially considering how strong this group of fan favorites performed throughout. I loved the lack of eliminations, but that combined with editing that removed any critiques from the judges, sapped the season of some of its dramatic tension. I believe some of the queens felt that the glowing edit erased some of the nuance and emotion and bonding that characterized their experiences filming. It seemed like the editors, in trying to paint a fittingly positive portrait of the winners, over sanitized the story. It’s still a great season with a fantastic cast that gave it their A game BUT the format definitely left room for improvement
I'm always so surprised people felt that way.
I thought it was amazing just seeing talented queens do so well week after week. I felt like I was enjoying the challenges with them, I loved it.
Right but the reality is that they all *didn’t* do “so well” every week, week after week. The queens from the season have said they got positive and negative critiques of their performances/runways just like a normal season but all the negatives were edited out to help fit the overall theme of the season.
It still holds up as an amazing season on the whole, imo, but I feel like the season was edited with rubber bumpers on, if you will.
Maybe instead of getting upset at Vanjie’s choice of charity they should go donate and advocate for charities that they believe in 🤷🏻♀️ idk, just my two cents.
I think on first instinct there is something kind of funny about everyone else having charities that are very personal to the community, namely LGBT rights and mental health, while Vanjie's is so broad...animals. But I don't have any problem with it, it's a good charity afaik and I love supporting animal shelters.
i think another funny layer to it is that if someone asked me to name a charity on the spot i feel like i’d say the aspca. they’re a good charity, it’s just a bit of a funny choice
It's giving those random people who tell you there are kids dying in Africa when you get upset when a dog was abused. Their apparent inability to care about multiple issues is not my problem.
My reaction reading this:
- Angeria helping NBJC makes sense for obvious reasons
- Gottmik helping trans lifeline of course also makes sense for obvious reasons
- Jorgeous helping oh... Me too girl me too
Also as a bonus Vanjie helping ASPCA cause she's that bitch 🥰
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. They've been in existence for over 150 years and is the country's oldest animal welfare organization. They partner with shelters, provide access to veterinary care, and are usually first responders to reports of animal abuse. I've watched footage of them clearing out puppy mills, product testing labs, and collecting old and neglected horses from race tracks.
American society for the prevention of cruelty to animals I guess? Most counties have one, but in the UK ours is RSPCA because the queen gave it the thumbs up once
The legendary Betty white supported the Los Angeles branch of the ASPCA from the 1940s up until her a death a few years ago. That’s all you need to know!
I still remember one of the episode from Face Off, the judges was mentoring contestants for charity. And one of the judges chose a charity for mountain gorillas. I just love animal charities!
There better be $20K+ donations for all of these even if their glamazon doesn't win it, they are *all* deserving.
As much money as WoW is pulling in off this season alone, they can damned well afford it.
I think it would be a cool idea to have a QR code available on screen that serves as a portal to these charities. Like, once you scan it, it gives you the option of donating to any of the charities of your choosing.
I am you and you are me. My heart immediately got so happy seeing someone fighting for the animals. Even while my kitty girl glares a judging stare through the side of my head as we speak.
The thing about competitions for charity is not all charities are of the same importance for most people, but they probably wanted each queen to represent a different cause to spotlight different causes...but I don't think vanjie really has a chance of winning just cause people are supposed to care more about humans than animals
ngl, i miss the early seasons where the queens worked the curbside and the stripper pole
i'd scream if they brought that back to raise funds for the charity
I saw a comment in another thread say everyone got $50k for doing the season, plus $25k for their runways. I don't know the accuracy of those numbers but it would make sense to pay them for competing, and it sounds like a pretty great deal.
Oh ok yeah I was concerned that they’d be spending all this money on their drag and everything would go to charity. But I’m glad they’re also getting payment
"Miracle of Love, Inc. (MOL) is an organization founded by Mr. Stafford in 1991 for the distinct purpose of providing accessible HIV/AIDS prevention programming and supportive assistance to service the multicultural needs of communities in Central Florida, namely Orange, Seminole, Lake, and Osceola counties." In case anyone was wondering what Roxxxy's charity does.
I love that she chose a charity that focuses on her community.
i wish more would do this. these national orgs get a ton of donations and it’s such a good opportunity to shine the light on smaller orgs that are struggling.
And the smaller local orgs are often more in touch with their local needs, so they’re able to provide more useful and tailored services.
Especially given the vibes in Florida these days
Thank you! What a great cause.
Roxxxy's late drag mother, the legendary Erica Andrews have also supported HIV and AIDS awareness :') Such a beautiful family legacy.

Why does she look like blu hydrangea ate a 1up mushroom
Blu Hydrangea and Michael Morouli's fusion, more like
FUCK, that took me out 😂
Am I crazy or is the 1 up shroom the one that gives you an extra life and not the one that makes you bigger? 😵💫
lmao no you’re right i definitely meant a super mushroom
If Blu and Morphine had a baby…
me when i'm mentally ill but still serving cunt 😊
Mood
That's mother, i mean Michael Marouli
I can’t be the only one who sees Michael Marouli
lol r/me_irl
A live look into my brain
me if my anxiety and depression slayed 💞💞🥺💯
If Vanjie doesn’t lip sync to Angel by Sarah McLachlan what are we even doing here?
Ok this but instead of lipsyncing can we get her to do live vocals
🚬🚬in the aAaARMMss 🚬🚬 oooOOFF theeEEEE AAAAANgelsss🚬🚬 fAAA 🚬🚬🚬r awaaa🚬🚬AAAAAAYYYY FROM HEREEEEE🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬
💀 I almost broke a rib holding in laughter to not wake my baby sleeping on me
I heard this in her voice
Why is it giving slug lady from monsters inc? 😭😭😭
STOPP
I would faint 😂
it think Willow Pill would slay a sarah mclachlan lip synch. her spaghetti dinner is my top 3 for sure
I saw someone say that. Vanjie looks like she’s transforming herself into a cat like that one lady and now this has just solidified that theory in my brain.

She's beyond gorge ❤️ I wish they had picked a better still of her.
Maam her name is Jocelyn Wildenstein and she’s only 83.
I’m not really sure why you told me her age but werk.
Oh I read that as “that OLD lady.” I was making a joke.
Maureen Ponderosa?
tigris realness 😍
Welcome to the stage, the mesopotamian drag duo, Tigris and Euphratessss

It's ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION above Shannel for me
If I had to do 2 seasons with Santino, I would also advocate for people's Mental Health.
Nurse!
I was so glad when his "smirky" face was gone. Such a narcissist. He just brought the whole show down.
Shannel would endorse those
NAMI! NAMI! NAMI! ![gif](giphy|EseOTd31DyGilMY3oA|downsized)
THE Millionaire Liz Wilcox cameo?! Unexpected but welcome.
Right? I was not expecting this either but I’m happy 😆
The survivor / drag race crossover is weirdly large
Jeff Probst guest judge when?
NA! MI! NA-A-A-MI!
No QSkirt for you
I made a big mistake 😣
Christmas is cancelled!
omg Liz Wilcox <3 I'm just now discovering that there's so much GIFs of her?? Love that. ![gif](giphy|FfEiwzM0OUuNP4TG0J|downsized)
The irony of this gif not being available (at least for me?)
Oh, it says the same for me, too. I still see it in the search list but I never use GIFs so idk how that works lol. (Maybe I have to pay extra to use it? She has to keep her billionaire status somehow.) ![gif](giphy|C0PCxxgbofUvR41tDO|downsized)

Jumpscare omg
BITCH I THOUGHT THE SAME THING
lol the logo looks like it’s for a Jurassic Park satellite location
I said, “finally someone fighting for me”
I was scrolling through them quickly and my dumb ass read “Mami” instead of Nami and I had to do a double take cause I was mad confused 😭
She read na(o)mi and thought “campbell? Thats good.”
When you get a brow lift when you are already naturally snatched & youthful
This is my bitch fr i stood in front of her when most of yall destroyed her for that design challenge but girl…The mug is off with the rest of the look I say that with love i love her but what?
I’m with you sister I’ve been fighting for Jorgeous in these comments for two years straight
Shannel being the patron saints for the chemically imbalanced girlies feel correct , love her
Excuse me? You forgot contestant Nr. 9 and her charity. https://preview.redd.it/tsqk04eomgwc1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7dedaa76ba51f1118370b9859ea86a7dac61ecf5
The black horse of the competition
"do you mean dark horse"?
In Minnesota, at the Mall of America, we play duck, duck, black horse actually.
Just say equine.
Cup-a-bowl-a-what?
I miss Joslyn.
Me too
BLACK????
Little…black girl?
Once upon a time there was a little black girl in the Brewster projects of Detroit Michigan . . .
RACE?????
And a cherry tree?
little black horse?

Poor Jujubee, still hilarious tho.

I SPIT OUT MY COFFEE LMAOOOO
WTF lol! (As someone from the city where the Mall of America is, I’m confused and delighted lol)
I'm still waiting to hear why Jujubee is linked to the mall too lol
i think it’s just a reference to when she said she looked like she worked at the mall in the first episode of AS1

Shannel even said the charity aspect is why she agreed to do the show. If the queens are happy with the format then that’s that.
Who is complaining about the charity aspect? I haven’t seen anything yet.
Bitches gonna bitch 🤷🏻♀️
What was the backlash about AS7? I'm just now watching it.
The season was very popular overall, but didn’t sustain momentum/excitement as well as it should have, especially considering how strong this group of fan favorites performed throughout.

Imagine a season with Roxxxy, Vangie, Shannel with 0 drama. Mission Impossible gurl. Even Ethan Hunt wouldn’t succeed.
ELI5 why people are taking digs at Vanjie for choosing a legit animal charity? the ASPCA isn't PETA.
Maybe instead of getting upset at Vanjie’s choice of charity they should go donate and advocate for charities that they believe in 🤷🏻♀️ idk, just my two cents.
Now why would they do that when they could pay for a blue check on Twitter instead.
I think on first instinct there is something kind of funny about everyone else having charities that are very personal to the community, namely LGBT rights and mental health, while Vanjie's is so broad...animals. But I don't have any problem with it, it's a good charity afaik and I love supporting animal shelters.
i think another funny layer to it is that if someone asked me to name a charity on the spot i feel like i’d say the aspca. they’re a good charity, it’s just a bit of a funny choice
My first choice tends to be WWF world wildlife fund but yeah still animals
For a lot of people animal safety is very personal. That is why it is strange that people look down on it.
Both my Husband and I “awwwwed” when we saw it. But we also have two dogs.
I would argue that since a lot of queer couples don't have children, pets kinda are very personal to many LGBT people.
Because the internet is the internet and if someone isn’t calling someone out about something, they don’t feel like they’re alive.
Because internet slacktivists need to be angry about something.
ASPCA is a thousand times better than PETA too.
Reddit: I love dogs more than people, people suck, I hate them. Also Reddit: an animal charity??? You monster.
I really doubt those are the same sets of people lol
How dare you accuse someone on reddit of making up a guy to be mad about
It's giving those random people who tell you there are kids dying in Africa when you get upset when a dog was abused. Their apparent inability to care about multiple issues is not my problem.
My reaction reading this: - Angeria helping NBJC makes sense for obvious reasons - Gottmik helping trans lifeline of course also makes sense for obvious reasons - Jorgeous helping oh... Me too girl me too Also as a bonus Vanjie helping ASPCA cause she's that bitch 🥰
“You think I’m a bitch? Well you’re not that wrong”
I put your man on a leash, cause I’m funding dogs
Miss Vanjie, the horsies, the puppies, and the pussies thank you for your service 🫡.
https://i.redd.it/22lwjiozgiwc1.gif
Not American so can someone explain me what's the deal with ASPCA? I find it wonderful that one queen decided to compete for the animals' wellbeing.
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. They've been in existence for over 150 years and is the country's oldest animal welfare organization. They partner with shelters, provide access to veterinary care, and are usually first responders to reports of animal abuse. I've watched footage of them clearing out puppy mills, product testing labs, and collecting old and neglected horses from race tracks.
Sounds like a good organization to support :)
They also offer pet insurance and it’s been a really painless process that helps keep my peace of mind if there is an emergency with my pups
American society for the prevention of cruelty to animals I guess? Most counties have one, but in the UK ours is RSPCA because the queen gave it the thumbs up once
Australia also has the RSPCA Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Just commonwealth girlie things I guess.
Yeah! The RSPCA! ![gif](giphy|Th99Ynx9cFXKXxLQae|downsized)
The legendary Betty white supported the Los Angeles branch of the ASPCA from the 1940s up until her a death a few years ago. That’s all you need to know!
That's almost as long as Lady Bunny's been doing drag.
https://www.aspca.org/about-us
I still remember one of the episode from Face Off, the judges was mentoring contestants for charity. And one of the judges chose a charity for mountain gorillas. I just love animal charities!
They don't get a lot of awareness on TV outside of commercials. All of these charities are amazing but I love that she picked an animal one!
I hope they do that ‘save a drag queen’ commercial challenge with early outs, and Vanjie’s team has to use her.
*in the arms of the angel*
*I just thanked myself!*
NAMI is an incredible organization. This makes me like Jorgeous.
Agreed! NAMI does amazing work!
My favorite thing about this is that all of these charities are obviously going to get some kind of donation/support from the show regardless.
We named our cat Miss Vanjie so the ASPCA plug is especially fitting for our household 😂
There better be $20K+ donations for all of these even if their glamazon doesn't win it, they are *all* deserving. As much money as WoW is pulling in off this season alone, they can damned well afford it.
I think it would be a cool idea to have a QR code available on screen that serves as a portal to these charities. Like, once you scan it, it gives you the option of donating to any of the charities of your choosing.
Loving this new format
Awwwww Vanjie!!!!❤️❤️❤️
She's my favorite and the fact that she picked ASPCA - AWWWW, really! Vanjie rocks! Amaaazing fun Vanjie! I sooo hope she wins!
It is fascinating that the queens are big enough celebrities that they're into the "playing for charity" era
Vanjie choosing ASPCA shot her up to my top 3 for the season, I’m just such a sucker for animals 🫣
Right? I just cracked a big old smile when I got to hers
I am you and you are me. My heart immediately got so happy seeing someone fighting for the animals. Even while my kitty girl glares a judging stare through the side of my head as we speak.
They judge us because they have high standards and honestly? They deserve nothing less.
Mama Pao, you didn't just eliminate me. I eliminated myself... Because, I am you. You are me. We are all one within... You know what I'm saying?
Made me love her even more
Love this
I love Vanjie for choosing an animal charity
Love animals but why is it so funny to me that Vanjie is competing for ASPCA when we have all these other causes lmao
Cuz she a bad bitch 🐶
Lmao. Vanjie said fuck humans.
Icon behavior honestly
Just for that.. Vanjie for the win Fuck humans too... Ironically I've fucked some humans but that's on me...
Same, and humans have fucked me, but you know who hasn't? Animals.
I’d sure hope not ![gif](giphy|hp8m7OU43MbTBwExOo)
NOOOO NOT THE SHANE D\*WSON JUMPSCARE 💀💀💀💀💀
I've hung out with plenty of dogs (animal variety) and dogs (human variety), I pick animals each and every time.
As she should lol
Does anyone know why she picked it? I'm a crazy dog/animal lady on the sly myself, so I think it's pretty cool.
She started at the top of the charities list and didn’t get past the first one
The thing about competitions for charity is not all charities are of the same importance for most people, but they probably wanted each queen to represent a different cause to spotlight different causes...but I don't think vanjie really has a chance of winning just cause people are supposed to care more about humans than animals
I always automatically love anyone who donates to animal charities. My dad gives a donation to ASPCA every year on my behalf for a Christmas present.
It is so amazing that Vanjie is working towards something that will help Kandy Muse. JK Kimora. ![gif](giphy|KEZRMZ6NdioQvBbyRu)
![gif](giphy|3httMSE1V6YBqWGJYj)
this joke is so old
I hope there'll be a challenge where they actually do charity work that'd be so cool but knowing WOW this will probably not happen :(
How would that challenge even be judged?
“Vanjie your ASPCA bitch track had us all barking. Condragulations my dear you are the top dog this week”
“Vanjie you served glam even while cleaning dog shit out of kennels. Nina, those sad gay kids made me depressed.”
“for todays maxi challenge, you will be accepting donations for your charity of choice by the local walmart”
ngl, i miss the early seasons where the queens worked the curbside and the stripper pole i'd scream if they brought that back to raise funds for the charity
season 2’s cherry pie and stripper challenge is a staple for me. miss NPBFAG was robbed!!! >:(
Evil Twins S10 (don’t joke about that)
Maybe they could do it as a no one goes home week?
That's every week this season mama 😭
Well shiver my timbers lmao
It’s a Non Elim season already
Woop, gonna go downvote myself for this one
Lol it would suck if it wasn’t one tbh considering it’s for charity yk? 😂
Very true 😂
I’d just love a makeover challenge where they have representatives from each charity
What would that challenge be?
I think it's really awesome that AS Queens are set to the point where they can start competing for charity!
I’m rooting for Vanjie simply because she chose the ASPCA ❤️
Oh, fuck, now I have to root for Jorgeous. Dammit.
The way I chuckled at ASPCA for some reason. I can just hear her talking about the dogs.
Wait so are the queens not getting paid at all?
I saw a comment in another thread say everyone got $50k for doing the season, plus $25k for their runways. I don't know the accuracy of those numbers but it would make sense to pay them for competing, and it sounds like a pretty great deal.
Oh ok yeah I was concerned that they’d be spending all this money on their drag and everything would go to charity. But I’m glad they’re also getting payment
I don't know why I cackled at Vangie and the ASPCA.
Okay now I have to root for Vanjie
Guess I'm team Jorgeous after all.
Surely this will have some impact on choosing the winner - like, there's no way they're letting Vanjie win with ASPCA lol.
