Hearing rupaul go "Alright...this is for real" is so much scarier than "don't eff it up"
I wish this would scare me lmaooo girl pls
I went to the Season 11 finale and yeah. it's chilling.
@@kevinjamaal4660 "This wouldn't bother me at all" - Guy who will never have to experience it
@@danwilliams2551 literally 😂😂
@@danwilliams2551 I mean, neither are you. Weird thing to have grab attention and comment on lmao. All I see is Kevin bein confident. Nothin wrong with that.
"Hm I've seen your drag, your grandma's not gonna be dead very long" this caught me so offguard HAHAHA
☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
That’s such a Kim Chi read too 😂
I don't get it :(
@@CCSTOMAwe baby. Kimchi knew what Trixie was referring to when she said “I have to go away for a month my grandma died”. She knew she was going to drag race. So she said her grandma wouldn’t be dead very long implying that she would go home early.
@@tanaiseverything9384 lmaoooooo. Thank you.
Today is the day I realized that drag race is basically a pink, glittery psych ward
No phones, meals provided, scheduled activities during the day, not allowed to leave your room after certain times, monitored interactions.. wild. 😂
i was thinking this 😭 pink looney bin
I love this, i work in a psych ward in Denmark where all the walls are pink cause its supposed to have a calming effect on the patients. these people have obvs never seen drage race
Lmaoo the accuracy 😭
Not to mention having to regularly participate in group activities with people you may or may not hate, and regularly meet with authority figures so they can assess if you're ready to go home or not
It’s also funny bc the queens have to take psychic test to get on the show 😂
Fun fact: Nicki Doll revealed that they don’t isolate the queens on DragRace France because it’s illegal under their production laws so they queens go out during filming.
Just a bunch of French drag queens in a room with the AC on -12 just having a fierce Kiki. 😂
I was thinking about the same thing, and I guess it's not the only country where you can't lock up people like that 😂 Don't know how it works for the secret though.
@@maegc9876 they sign NDAs. idk for drag race specifically but usually it's pretty hard sanctions like 4 zero fines sometimes even not winning the show. So they have to stay silent 😶
Loved this! 😍x
In España they rent a house where the queens live together in.
Jaida was an alternate on Season 12 as Tamisha Iman had to drop out due to her illness, I'm glad we got to see Tamisha on Season 13 and I'm also so happy Jaida got on Season 12 and fully deserved to win
Apparently violet was an alternate for season 7 too, which is wild.
@@cormac5817 not only that, but ginger was originally intended to win season 7 pre airing
She saw her name on the cheque!@@left2rightanimations561
Jaida deserves the win
We all know Jaida was never gonna win if the controversy with cherry pie didn’t happen. Be foreal lmao.
trixie saying "how the sauce is made" and not "how the sausage is made" is so precious to me lol
Vegetarian things 😂
Lmfao
@@kirac.7368yeah but it's 'how the sausage is made' because the process of making sausage is kinda gross and unpleasant and you don't want to know, it's really making the vegan argument if you think about it
Secret sauce?
Trixie complementing the crew on being considerate on dietary restrictions reminded me on Willam cracking down on that same crew on giving them little to no money for ordering food, much less DIET-RESTRICITED food.
The doors she opened (and closed)...
Makes you wonder how accurate Willam's portrayal was.
I wonder if the crew was pushed to work better in accommodating the contestants since season 4, to avoid experiences like Willam’s that could be controversial for the production and branding, if talked about in public?🤔
@@lukerinderknecht2982It was accurate. Several of the queens on Willam's season have backed up what he said.
@@issy4122 oh absolutely I think that was the case. I don't think Willam's account was wrong by any means (although I do believe she could've amp'ed some stuff up for dramatic effect), I do believe her telling that to the world surely made them rethink their approach with the Queens PAs - at least once they started to realize how big the show would've become, and they started doing All Stars, meaning they had to play nice to actually make the Queens want to come back.
Well, the show itself was pretty low budget at the time.
I myself have worked in a local tv station (low budget) and what she pointed felt accurate to what I've seen in my time, specially people being jerks, lil tv big ego. One of the hosts was Miranda Pristley in flesh, a local tv station, in Brazil country-side.
The marketing woman that you are. I see you Patricia
explainnnn
LITERALLY like ohhhh yeah you just thought you’d do this all on your own 😅
Patricia, head of SEO at Trixie LLC
She’s boosting SEO because the new season just came out and she’s doing pitstop so she’s getting her YT mentions up
yeah, she loves RPDR, but this was pretty thick hahaha, still love everything thing she does though and she is the only reason I am watching this season lol
@@bagelbenji
I think it’s craaaazzy that Violet was an alternate. I have no idea who she replaced but I’m so glad she was there
No proof of this. Just Trixie’s heresay
@@catsthatsmokemeth violets brought it up before too lol
@@catsthatsmokemeththat she's heard from someone on wow..
@@catsthatsmokemethWell Trixie was on the show.
she was asked about it on Exposed I think and she said she had no idea, the only thing she knew was that Trixie kept telling this story about her being an alternate @@left2rightanimations561
Trixie: You might not know this but drag race episodes are filmed over two days
Some twink every single episode of drag race: ITS A NEW DAY IN THE WERKROOM
Trixie using images from her Season 7 looks reminded me that she was a serious underdog when she made her debut on Drag Race. She's just such a drag superstar now that it's hard to remember the time when that wasn't the case
I remember not understanding why she was eliminated so early season 7
I actually love seeing the compassion because she clearly is much better now, and wasn't afraid to learn through the way.
"ive seen your drag, your grandma won't be dead for long" LMFAO, KIM
I'm still laughing about that 🤣
Her reads are lethal BAWAHAHAHAHA
The NDA has run out!!! 🎉😂
This was actually so informative and fun to learn the behind the scenes of drag race
was it
beautiful genuine comment woah
DISCO!
Trixie looks like she’s slowly metamorphosing into Rupaul with this look lmao
Yea the time she went on Project Runway in 2008.
Trixie's hairline is softer than Ru's!
just waiting for her to go 'winner winner chicken dinner' while bobbing her head around--oh wait...
I can kind of see trixie taking over Ru if she ever retires honestly. I can't think of many people who'd be able to having that sort of presence when judging, except latrice or alyssa. But alyssa has that whole dance business going on.
She's morphing into Lady Bunny
THE HAIR. THE BLUSH. THE EYES. THE OUTFIT
She gets more gorgeous every year
The hair is a mess. Be honest. Fena took the day off, clearly.
uhm, i clicked *_for_* the hair. It's giving Lady Marmalade-era Christina Aguilera not giving 2 fux about the haters
@@carmen000laurent Girl please lol no 😂😂😂
The T.
i know trixie keeps comparing dragrace to other reality shows like they all abide to the same rules, but my heart still goes out to the queens, because i don’t see a love island or house of villains cast member learning lines, doing backflips in heels and wigs…
shes comparing how they’re produced, not the talent necessary to be on them
Well I feel like you’re just describing the difference between being a conventionally attractive person on a dating show and being a literal drag queen lol
Proof is in the sauce. Palace has guards. Have to break glass, mustn't tell, mustn't tell!
Is “hard ice” why Thorgy, Eureka and Alyssa were bursting at the seams to speak all the time?
This is a big day for Trixie, but it's a big day for Drag Race too. Huge!
Sight unseen!
with all that trixie's been through.... this is huge
@@brookestevenson1626 huge.
But than again… all that drag race been through it’s a BIG day…
What happened?
"I loved doing drag race"
This is Trixies audition for all winners two clearly
She’s said she will never do it again.
@@lordwalker71and that she didn't like competing
Possible, but I assume this video was a suggestion by WOW to promote the new season
@@lordwalker71She also said that she made them promise they would call if there is ever an All Winners 2.
@@vovan7349that was before AW1 happened and we saw they all got to stay the whole time and was pretty favorable to all the queens involved. It’s pretty different compared to AS or a a standard season
“Your grandma’s not going to be dead very long.” Literally lol’d and almost choked. Absolutely❤ Kim Chi!!!😂
The technical mastery it must take to get clear sound when those microphones are being bullied by the loudest cacophony of fabrics, jewelry, and baubles imaginable 🔥
as a former PA/producer for reality tv... thank yew for the shoutout and love to the staff :')
We're you a terrible producer like Willam describes.
Hi Trixie, 10-1 as in bathroom break is actually walkie talkie lingo which dates back to filming, well, films! And before that it was military walkie lingo. Also used by police walkie talkies and CB radios. A big 10-4 buddy.
Anybody reading this who is interested google 'radio 10 codes' and you'll find lists of them
Can confirm! My parents were cops and would say they’re going “10-100” and “10-200” as slang for using the restroom
Hahahaa even little kids will say "going number one" or "going number two." Means the same!!@@Jmags1012
Yup, we stole a lot of terms from the millitary. I was training a PA who had just done a tour and he found it hilarious
Yep! Makes sense cops and military need concise and FAST way to communicate. On set we've got to get the word to another group concisely and QUICKLY. No one wants a drag queen peeing themselves!!! Or the talent to be late. heehee@@AC-ze1nh
Laganja entrance line was because she could hear chatting in the work room, where she heard about twists.
what was her entrance line again?
Laganjas? It was OH YALL WANTED A TWIST EYY. COME ON SEASON 6 LETS GET SICKENING!!!
🤯
"Hard ice" explains Pearl's story about her gushing at Ru and her saying "save it for camera".
Tbh I always thought that story sounded harsh but reasonable. I understand why Pearl was upset about it, it was kind of a rude way of putting it, but at the end of the day, it's a job, it's a TV show, and yeah, it's about what happens on camera.
@@bryonybates897 “Save it for the camera,” as I understand it, is literally just a normal thing people say when they work on TV sets. I think Pearl doesn’t quite get that Ru wasn’t being a jerk when she said that… she’s literally just a professional doing her job, which is to run a wildly successful TV empire.
I’m not saying Ru is a saint, because obviously not. I’m just saying that I always thought Pearl took that specific comment a little too personally.
There's a difference between saying "what you say doesn't matter if there's no camera" and "we're currently not allowed to talk unfortunately"
Plus I don't think this was during the filming of the actual show but during the casting ?
@@CarolineisJam yeah, one is said by the talent the other is said by the crew
I thought of that moment too!
It's nice to bear witness to the show's evolution. The considerations for food during Willam's time were very different back then. One day I wouldn't mind watching Willam and Trixie swap war stories on the Then and Now of Drag Race.
Violet's legacy of facetiming Trixie to ask about where she heard she was an alternate contestant.
I dont know if its the makeup or the wig but something about Trixie’s mug this video is AIRBRUSHED🥹 The base is so soft and subtle
trixie wearing the superstar barbie outfit the day after margot robbie wears hers
Sounds like the production team/ crew really improved between Willams S4 and S7 when Trixie first appeared.
Glad to hear the queens get fed properly these days at least! 😅
I think Willam is the reason the food stepped up for the show, because she was the one who put the producers on blast for not making sure dietary queens were taken care of.
OH Mother looks GORGEOUS today💗🎀
Trixie "turning the corner" at 10:48 was SUCH. A. SERVE.
Thats some sharp liner trixie. Carefull. You could puncture the hall of an empire-class fire nation battle ship, leaving thousands to drown as sea, ... because, its so sharp
"I've seen your drag, your grandma's not gonna be dead very long" LOL KIM. What a legend.
Jaida being an alternate, having less time to prepare AND WINNING IS JUST SO ICONIC 2 ME ❤
Iirc Violet was like that too. But Jaida ALSO had the pandemic to work around. Genuinely amazing how well she did.
@@razrv3lc yes! So many obstacles and yet winning. I love her so much. Also, about the violet thing, there's an interview, i think from the exposed series from Sheppard, where Violet debunks that she was an alternate, like... she has a chat with Trixie about that. I think it was just a rumor but idk
@@razrv3lc Wait, but wasn't S12 filmed in 2019 and aired during the start of the pandemic?
I’ve always wondered if the queens can hear the puns the judges make as they walk or if that’s filmed later
They actually do the runway two times! The first is to music where they just walk and serve and the second is with no music while the judges make their jokes and sound bites.
Trixie switching between camera angles is gold
6:03 “nothing you say matters unless those cameras are rolling”
And that's just the harsh truth in showbiz. Poor Pearl was so naive lol
@@novakd1530pearls moment wasn't for the cameras. Rupaul should of just known that. Shows rupaul doesn't care for the queens only the money.
@@perezdavidangelWell that's not true. Rupaul and the judges are activists. They are also real humans and sometimes humans can be harsh. If Pearl would have said that on camera then that would have made Pearl more likable. Helps them both out. She put it very harshly for sure though.
We love acknowledging the sound team/production staff! Truly the unsung heroes
There's actually a study that proves that pink walls (especially when you'll be in that space for a long period of time) inicially increases tranquility, but after a while increases the level of aggression and stress, and I think that is the main objective of the production lol
Trixie, I fell in love with you on this channel then started watching Drag Race. Thank you for opening my mind and heart to this beautiful art. I can’t get enough of you or Drag Race. I looked forward to your videos and each season of Drag Race. It’s made my life sweeter.
Honestly, this queen literally only gets better with age, wow Trixie you look gorgeous!
“Alternate” cast crown winners include… Violet and Jada (so I’ve heard 🤫)
Police dispatcher here, 10-100 is code for bathroom break. That’s where it comes from.
Is there a code book where all of this stuff is written down and 10-100 just happened to be where on the list bathroom fell?
@@Pathfinder2 lol idk but you look up 10 codes online. It’s pretty common.
Oouuu! 🎉
I work in the film industry!
10-1 (10-100) is radio code for pee (10-2, is well, a number 2 but no one generally uses this code) It's just a more private and polite way of telling your team/crew you're stepping away for a bathroom break.
monet has talked openly about pissing herself on the mainstage 💀
This was a great video! The nerves of a pre-song before the song sounds absolutely horrifying 😱
Omg I love your videos! So fun to know you watch Trixie 😄
I'd love to see a behind the scenes video about The Pit Stop.
Bianca gave some tidbits about it. You have to watch A LOT of dragrace LOL
@@novakd1530 Where can I find this?!
This is so funny because this is what most Ru girls do to kickstart their CZcams channel, and Trixie is years in
She has the most perfect ears to hold the earing so u can see them really well. Even through a wig
This is a really big day for Rupaul's Drag Race.
I had to 10-1 the whole time I was watching this video.
what do you mean "the whole time" the video has been out for eight minutes 💀
Might be my favourite Trixie hair.
Me when I lie.
Same.
“Cold, Happy, Dry and Respected, Out of Darkness 2 Electric Bugaloo: The Trixie Mattel Story”
I can’t even focus on what’s she saying Trixie is TOO beautiful
i just wanted to say your makeup looks so symmetrical and stunning in this video heart emoji
Trixie, I know you know this, but you look incredible.
10 codes vary from field to field. They’re walkie talkie lingo that go from 10-1 to 10-20 usually, as a way to facilitate communication. So the meanings of each 10 code vary depending on what information ppl usually need to convey in the corresponding industry/field. On set, using the first 10 code (10-1) as a quick bathroom break is usually also accompanied with using 10-2 as a longer bathroom break… just cause, ya know. number 1 and number 2. Originally 10-1 in walkie talkie lingo meant “bad reception” or “unreadable transmission” but I guess in the age of technology, we dont need to say it that often anymore. lol. 🤓
also, ppl just say “extend my 10-1” now so others just know you need a longer bathroom break. It’s the TV, you might be pooping, snorting a line or having a panic attack. Maybe all 3. None of their business.
We still get bad cellular mobile phone reception.
How incredibly organized are the Drag race production team to make so much content in one year... Drag Race US, All stars, drag race uk, mexico, down under, canada, france, among others.
I was so excited when i saw you was hosting the pit stop. I was just as excited to watch the pit stop as i was to watch the new season. Congratulations trixie🥰
I love when you do any behind the scenes stuff.
Also, please bring Johnny Ross on the channel.
Trixie's hair is giving "just took out a headband"
It's funny how similar my experience with Painted With Raven was. Even though it was not in person there was a lot of waiting and Hard Ice. The producers were super accommodating, I agree! Funny they called our makeup looks from the main challenge "Runway" behind the scenes. Lol 😂 the pee breaks were just pee breaks 😂 we were constantly forgetting to look into the camera instead of the judges on Zoom, that was very hard to remember. I'd love to do the Drag Race but I've got no costume and I'm lazy..lol 😂
U know world of wonder was like "girl make a video for us please"
Just when I think you couldn't get any more gorgeous, you do. Thank you for being such a hard working, talented, and fabulous artist!
it's really nice hearing a queen speak nicely of production! we usually only hear the bad
Tracy Ozempic Martell💅🏻
Rupaul is going to hunt you down for this video, Trixie.
Lil Kim has a lyric when she says "send a b!tch a kite" and thanks to THIS video, 20 years later I now know wtf it meant! 😂😅
Why was this so positive i wanted you to tell me Michelle's deepest darkest secrets !!
Really interesting to hear what changes were made over the years. Willam's accounts of the S4 filming, with regard to AC and food especially, are so different from this.
Omg I loved this video! Trixie literally answered all the questions I've had when watching Drag Race. I hope she'll do another video!
Other questions: how long r u on stage getting critiques from the judges? How long are u actually backstage filming untucked? Are y'all just locked up in a room on Saturday and Sunday or do they let u go out for food? When do they film the promo looks and meet the queens?
That info about how drag race schedules filming (the two days per episode thing) was such a freaking satisfying piece of information for me. I have wondered that literally since I started watching drag race. Thank u trixie. I love this bts tea
This was FANTASTIC. I literally ask these questions every single episode. Thank you.
Tracy can you do a video about your costumes? How often you get new ones, the process behind design, etc
In the confessions their reactions seem so fresh and real! I´ve always wondered when they filmed that. Cause sometimes they will say stuff that they already know the answers too, i just find that so interesting.
Omg girl how'd u just elevate the quality/perfection of queen you are already? seriously looking amazing 🤩
I love how positive all of your commentary is! It sounds like RPDR has a phenomenal crew and set culture (which you can't take for granted in that business...)
Trixie looks super beautiful today!
Best part of Monday!!!!! Love you Trix!!!! 💖
THIS HAIRRRRRRR 😍😍😍😍🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Ozempic face is showing through his mask 😳
A photo of Leighton Meester with the text: 10-1, girl!
Trixie looking fabulous today!
I wish they would make a limited series of Behind the Scenes of Drag Race. I love all of that stuff.
Pleaseee make another one of these videos Trixie! This was so fascinating to hear!
Ooooo can’t wait for the fresh hot tea ☕️ to drop today 💖✨
So they live eat and breathe with the lip sync songs the entire time and Valentina still couldn't muster up the lyrics on her last lip sync 😂😂😂
A seven word chorus girl!!
Proof that stress will break your brain. Just like Katya on her last episode of season 7
Thanks for going over those facts of the show . I think I’ve watched it since it’s come out . I’ve grown to admire and look up to you all for your hard work and dedication plus in the way you treat others . I love you on CZcams and enjoy your videos.
this HAIR! on trixie made me fall IN LOVE!
I’ve always wondered if the judges can hear the the little monologue that the queens say when they’re walking the runway
“This week on the runway I am giving …..”
No, it's a confessional edited over the clip of them walking. The only time they would is challenges like the superheroes in as1 l, fairytale design one in s9 or the inner saboteur one from s10 where they had to actually write a monologue for their characters. But for normal runways where the queens describes her runway and inspiration behind it, no
Omgggg you should do a part 2 to this video with Katya I feel like I would love to know more about both sides 😆❤️
I LOVE that you thought of Meredith Baxter Birney as the secret guest judge!! You crack me up!!!
I've been LOVING the disco ball earrings you've been wearing lately😍 Also the 80s hair, PERFECTION
Trixie’s recounting of the sound check followed by the chilling “ok, this time is for real” is her “99 people in a room.” I feel like I have heard this on UNHhhh, The Bald and the Beautiful, The Pit Stop, Trixie and Katya Live, Growlr, Grindr, Scruff, Sniffies…
Did she really tell that one some other time? I'd never heard it! I guess I should catch up on The Bald and the Beautiful and UNHhhh.
I exaggerate slightly but I think this is at least the third place I’ve heard it. 😂 And yes, UNHhhh and the podcast continue to delight!
Love this Trixie ❤
The video I've been waiting for! How fun and insightful. TV is such a crazy place
This was so much fun, thank you Trixie!
