Rich gays of WeHo out here talking about "representation" while I'm just over here eating my bulk instant oatmeal trying to figure out how $40 is gonna last the rest of the month. Yeah... I feel so "represented" right now. 🙄
I'm missing the longer drag race episodes. I don't feel like we've had the opportunity to get to know the queens enough this season. And the runways feel like they are over in one single heartbeat. Fingers crossed they return to the full length in future seasons.
Mid March ! They will be back! And I'm glad because I was offended. It's the same thing is downsizing on product of the store... Pay the same price but the package is smaller? No ..WE WANT FULL PACKAGES! Can I get an amen up in here? 😆 And to do it on a season where you have 16 Queens was adding injury to insult. It's nice to know the fans are heard and honored
The thing is I'm not that upset about the 40 minute episodes, its the fact that they decided to do it with the biggest cast yet and made the editing far more difficult to watch with major jumps and lack of screentime for all the queens, especially on "the biggest snatch game yet" being quite literally the shortest with 20 seconds of a runway. It will ease up toward the final episodes with less queens, but they set up this season with arguably one of the best cast
Drag Race has that working class struggle that appeals to a mass audience; the pathos of escaping an intolerant world only to end up being harshly critiqued by your own community. WeHo seems to perpetuate the Velvet Rage myth that gay men must be smuggly upper-middle class and constantly the center of attention to be happy. With housewife shows there's at least an implicit commentary on the Feminine Mistique, but this seems smug and beige. It might be better if Michelle Visage appered at the end of each episode to summarily judge everyone's life choices.
Thank God for Real Friends of WeHo. I feel seen and heard because I, too; am a wealthy, conventionally attractive actor and judge of Canada's Drag Race.
@@thomaskelliher I know it's the "thing" ...plastic surgery and lots of it..(I mean let's be honest RuPaul would be a much different looking Queen without it) however I kind of miss the way Brooklyn used to look. And you are gorgeous. Unless you are an arse-hole he treats people poorly, it's about your heart not just you looks. (We're only actively sexual a little over third of our lives... Google thing is great but the friendship thing is where it's at as far as being a couple. Just my opinion
let's be real ... because you belong in a community doesn't mean every trashy decision a fellow member makes needs to be praised and supported.. we can also focus on excellence and praise that
Would that be the 35, 000 jealous Nelly's that didn't get on, that must have been some casting call ! Nothing about any of the is representative of me in any way..
At this point Todrick is starting to cling to fame the way Trisha Paytas does, hoping the next controversy he has isn't as bad as to get totally cancelled but enough to cash in from it
I said this on reddit but I'll be 100% honest, if they gave this show literally any other time slot (either before drag race or after untucked) I don't think fans would be half as mad since it wouldn't have felt like it was taking up show space/people wouldn't feel like they're being tricked into watching it. If they had done that, and actually cast Willam (she had auditioned but didn't get in, thing is the drag race fandom would be way more likely to watch if she was there), maybe they could get more of their target audience. It was a bad initial move, and made a lot of people mad, but it didn't have to be as much of a disaster as it was. But I haven't watched the show so for all I know it's fine. Just could have had a better launch/better scheduling
@@donlepard7614 I mean if they want drama. Honestly any relatively well liked queen who lives in the area would probably draw some viewers, I mainly say Willam since she's the one I've heard auditioned. But from what I heard Bob and Monet were in an episode of the actual show so if they wanted a less controversial pick they could have asked one of them probably (unless they're too busy as is)
But why are people harassing, sending scat comments to the actors and NOT MTV. Why are the people (other than todrick) getting hate for something MTV executives did...?
The best thing about your videos is that sometimes the way you spill the tea takes me back to those playground days when someone had some gossip and would recount it to you. It's just a unique part of your delivery and I freaking love it!
It's too bad that the cast is receiving backlash when the justified anger should be directed to MTV. I don't watch the show because it's just not my taste. These 6 men do not really represent the LGBTQ+ community and it seems disingenuous to claim we should be grateful for any representation. Great commentary as always, Matt!
It's giving outrage marketing. Like no way MTV didn't do their research on how ppl feel about Todrick and the decision to cut down drag race. They just wanted us all to get mad and go on social media talking about the show and give them free advertising.
i really don't think so, or else brad wouldn't be there. todrick is just in with the right people, the same people who had him on as a choreographer on drag race.
Todrick should just resign fame, and become a producer with a pseudonym/different artistic name. He's immensely talented, but his antics and behavior are very questionable.
I get so annoyed when I hear about Todrick saying because you are gay you have to support more gay men in the spot light. Yes, we need to have more representation, but where is the same call for lesbian/queer women content ? Drag race gave us a tiny bit with Victoria Scone and the amazing trans women, but that’s about it. All other queer woman things are normally cancelled quite fast or not as highlighted. If you want to give us diversity, give us diversity. This isn’t it.
If they would have aired this is a different placement than there wouldn’t be this much drama or hatred. Let the drag race fans have their FULL LENGTH EPISODES ALREADY
I am really surprised that Todrick keeps getting opportunities even though his horrible work reputation is well known and it is also known that he isn't liked by audience. I was really surprised to find out that he landed some reality show, then I quickly forgot about it. Because nobody cared. And now that, as usual, it ends up in flames and in bad taste reactions, we are talking about it.
I gave up on him along time ago… And he is STILL lying about “his house” by claiming that he “bought it” and owns it… That is an outright lie! He is only renting it!
Todrick imo is not likeable and has a huge arrogance about him. Plus, how many ppl keep coming forward about his behaviors yet he still says ppl are jealous/I’m not the problem etc. I’ll admit he is vocally talented but ego always overshadows talent.
I would totally be down for a friends of WeHo show. I would just want it to have a diverse cast of interesting queer people who are actually friends, and not… whatever that is. Do they even know us? We don’t want to see more Todrick, unless it’s him sincerely acknowledging the harm he’s done and a commitment to addressing his problematic behavior. Imagine a show centering around people in Willam’s circle of friends. That could be hilarious, interesting, refreshing. They might even be able to avoid casting a reprehensible, irresponsible fop who’s despised by most of the queer community. Imagine!
LOL, you said that there were accusations that Men of WEHO was fake. I assumed from the start that gay men + WEHO = fake. The entire show is a sham and needs to go. MTV is really taking Drag Race down a notch
And 24 hours later, with the last episode of WeHo ending, MTV announces the return of 90 minute episodes. They screwed over Drag Race fans and the WeHo cast. 🙄
Quite disappointed that some of my faves are friends with someone as narcissistic, sociopathic and toxic as him, makes me wonder now about them because birds of a feather...
I have the theory that this was supposed to be Todrick's show. Like, the network wanted to give him his own show, but when they realized that he wasn't going to be able to get much audience by himself, they decided to get him a group of "friends" and tried to replicate the Real Housewives format. That's why he was so offended with people hating on the show while the others just stayed quiet.
The Real Housewives franchise work in a way, for that reason people love it. The real friends of We Ho doesn’t work for different reasons. 1 they name is fake they aren’t friends they could be friends like dogs and cats. 2 if What Dorian said during the interview is real that mean MTV lie and manipulate them or at least Dorian. 3 We Ho ( I don’t wanna write the entire name every time ) try to use the formula of The real housewives, at least from the scene I saw to me look like this, if I’m wrong I will do modifications on my comment. 4 Housewives ( same as write before ) show the lives of the members of the cast there family and what is best the frights, the feuds, and the drama between them, for that reason work.
Feel bad for the cast member who had his sexuality labeled by the show without his permission. Really makes it seem like the show really was created to exploit queer culture to sell to curious straights.
I'll be honest- I'm 100% disappointed by drag race this year. There is just no time to see the girls or the outfits fully( a quick up and down is not ok). I'm not watching Weho at all. I watch drag race the next day so it doesn't come up in between. Sure I'm happy for a new show but is that the cast we want to see? I don't think so.....The fact that Toderick is on it is a real shame! I'm sure he brings the "drama" but can't they find someone else to give the spot light too? He's been in so many things- why add him to this? Thats how I feel
maybe we’ll get hour episodes next year, but they won’t change this season again… tbh once we get down to there being fewer queens i think people might actually start to be able to enjoy the shorter episodes… it’s always toward the later part of the season people start meaning and groaning. it’s been rough starting w 16 girls though. and why does ANYONE (other than the LANDLORD-😖) care about todrick’ rent?! lololol
@@basil33 that makes sense. i guess i just never took todrick seriously enough one way or the other to feel disappointed by him- the behaviors are corny and gross, but he is hardly the first in hollywood to try it. i just hope his oz memorabilia is safe in a bathroom somewhere
You know what, we actually have plenty of queer representation in the media, especially in reality TV. What we actually need is relatable and authentic queer people/characters. Seeing rich people flaunt their wealth isn’t relatable to a LOT of queer people. Especially queer people of color, unfortunately. So. Maybe get in a board room with people other than just white WeHo gays.
Im just sad a few of my favorites still try to make “Todrick” a thing but what can you do? Not support what you don’t like and so I will continue to do that
Toddrick is just a shallow person, whose only interested in his personal gain. There has been countless stories that everyone has heard of (specially if you live in LA and frequent the weho scene) about how awful and shady he is. It’s almost like Perez Hilton. Just so shallow and lacking any self awareness.
He was told he was going to be on a show called the The A listers of LA😂😂😂😂?!? Talk about delusion, none of these are anywhere near A list. Not even D list…they’re the wannabes of not even WEHO.
Its like fine, I dont care if MTV wants to ass real friends of WEHO to their list. However you play literally 20 hours of Ridiculousness every single day. Why did you have to cut off drag race time if youre so LGBT friendly? Like Im confused
Ok I get todrick has done a lot of questionable things, that he said why are people angry that he lied about buying a house that he was renting when that’s pretty much what every single person does on social media is lie and make their lives seem better than they actually?
Ummm no people don’t actually do this. And it’s different when you (falsely) brag about your wealth while actively not paying people. Pick a lane are you too broke to pay them, or are you a wealthy star who’s just an ass and doesn’t pay?
I think it’s also pretty different when you film and post what is basically somebody else’s property, post it online for millions, then advertise it as your property. That’s fraudulent
WE could have supported the show but put more energy into NOT supporting the show. Either out of loyalty for Drag race or hate for Toddrick which is twisted. I see the hate in the comments and it's unnecessary.
I believe the cast of WeHo are under fire for many reasons, one of them being Todrick Hall acting like the typical entitled brat and not taking any ownerhsip who prefers to write a letter instead of addressing the issues head on is really pathetic and disingenuous. Secondly, they show no real life struggles within the lgbtq community from not being accepted by their families, hunger, homelessnes, hiv awareness, etc. Lastly, from being a meaningless reality show they are taking up space from my favorite show, it's disheartening that I was so excited for this season just for it to be cut by 50% and rushed through as if it haven't won 24 Emmys.
So......... they are upset with the actors on the show NOT MTV...? Let's honestly break this down; MTV made these choices, MTV made the shows, MTV cut Drag Race. Drag Race is edited and done. They aren't going back to fill the edits. Why are we, as a community, attacking our own when it should be the executives at Paramount? The fact one of the actors didn't even publicly come out, gross. I would love to see actual friends like Logo's A List New York. Not the best, but it felt more real.
Feels so wrong of MTV to shorten RPDR and move Untucked. Zero desire to watch Friends of Whatever. I feel for the queens who get on Drag Race and only have a few seconds airtime to show their outfits and and other efforts. Why take such a popular show and lop off a third of it?
Then why was Toddrick being sued for back rent for the same house? Also people are constantly talking about how Housewives and Bravo lacks in diveristy. Maybe tje show should just be better.
It does suck that there was hate against a lot of the members in this show (undeserving hate, btw). Of course, Todrick didn't make it any better with his posts on IG. But I definently feel for the other cast members who were lied to, and who had hated directed at them because of the change in time. But, yeah, the show wasn't diverse at all. I mean it is great that there are black cast on there, that it isn't just a whole bunch of white gays. But if it has to be men, where are bisexual/pansexual men, ace/demi men, trans men? I get that the show has "gay" in it, but gay has been used as an umbrella term for ages now. I just, this show could've been good, but it just felt weird trying to cash in on LGBTQIA+ experience for what? And then we have Drag Race where it's the biggest cast yet, though the episodes are cut down to 40mins, you really lose a lot of drama, and a lot of character with the shorter segments, that now that it's back to the full 60mins, it's going to get a bit boring with only 6 cast members.
Why are other reality shows not receiving a similar backlash though? All people in popular shows of the same genre are 1) privileged 2) entitled 3) problematic. I mean, Kardashians, hello? Any of the Housewives etc? Also, surprised the reality show is scripted and fake? Are you for real?
How is this more representation? It's a net loss, the queens don't get to have a personality in exchange for a small group of gay men taking the shine off a timeslot that should have high ratings.
Toddrick thinks he knows it all. He is very much not humble and a chronic liar. And then thinks we should just like him? Producers are going to stop casting him unless he changes his act. I can see the only reason they keep him around is because he knows how behind the scenes things work.
It’s just bad…a comment for each cast member…Host, Arrogant, Self Hating, Boring, Self Obsessed, Most to Lose/Gain. Oh yea and the show it totally fake and doesn’t even try…😮
I was kind of a fan long ago around when his Oz show. Thought was a good talent. However, over the years, learning all of all this drama and attitude and arrogance has tainted his reputation unfortunately. Shame. Wish him positive energy and hope he can be a better person 🙏

Please 🙏🏾 😭😭
I think that's also partly because there are too many queens.
WE DID IT JOE!! THE LONGER EPISODES ARE COMING BACK!!
Mid March ! They will be back! And I'm glad because I was offended. It's the same thing is downsizing on product of the store... Pay the same price but the package is smaller?

The thing is I'm not that upset about the 40 minute episodes, its the fact that they decided to do it with the biggest cast yet and made the editing far more difficult to watch with major jumps and lack of screentime for all the queens, especially on "the biggest snatch game yet" being quite literally the shortest with 20 seconds of a runway. It will ease up toward the final episodes with less queens, but they set up this season with arguably one of the best cast
The show absolutely awful, Torrick Hall being cast is a slap in the face of the Drag community
You think Toddrick is fat?
@@snakey319 ok.... so a muscle gay? a win for diversity!
Seeing The Real Friends makes me agree with Mistress Isabelle's read: I think I understand homophobia, especially Brad and Tod.

Drag Race has that working class struggle that appeals to a mass audience; the pathos of escaping an intolerant world only to end up being harshly critiqued by your own community. WeHo seems to perpetuate the Velvet Rage myth that gay men must be smuggly upper-middle class and constantly the center of attention to be happy. With housewife shows there's at least an implicit commentary on the Feminine Mistique, but this seems smug and beige.
It might be better if Michelle Visage appered at the end of each episode to summarily judge everyone's life choices.

It was tone deaf af
I am stuck on the fact that one cast member on the reality show, has *not* come out as homosexual. I- I- I.. just 😳
Being gay is not an excuse for bad tv
The editing of the runway last episode…. atrocious.
Just goes to show his true colours that the scene he chose to “recreate” was the one where Regina frames cady
Literally, choices....
I was just about to comment about this being layer upon layer of irony how he chose that particular scene to recreate.
Representation? A few fit good looking gays, most of whom are actors to an extent, is such a great diverse cast... not.

Let's face it, Todrick could be talented, but he's not likeable, that's it.

That’s not true. Todrick has been blaming the lack of interest in him and his life as being against LGBTQ+ representation on television.
It's just bad all around and none of 'em are "real friends"! And nobody cares about TH anymore, another c celebrity get some coins.

People should stop talking about that scammer instead of keeping him relevant and on topic. My opinion
Haven’t watched and don’t plan to. I hate them holding Untucked hostage.
Im so glad they made the episode 90 minutes again
The real friends of WHO
Regardless of Todrick and his controversies, I felt this show in general was wholly reductive, and painted gay men as bitter, childish, and petty.
The Real Housewives franchise work in a way, for that reason people love it.
The real friends of We Ho doesn’t work for different reasons.
1 they name is fake they aren’t friends they could be friends like dogs and cats.
2 if What Dorian said during the interview is real that mean MTV lie and manipulate them or at least Dorian.
3 We Ho ( I don’t wanna write the entire name every time ) try to use the formula of The real housewives, at least from the scene I saw to me look like this, if I’m wrong I will do modifications on my comment.
4 Housewives ( same as write before ) show the lives of the members of the cast there family and what is best the frights, the feuds, and the drama between them, for that reason work.
The show actually out one of the cast members? If what he says is true he needs to sue.
Feel bad for the cast member who had his sexuality labeled by the show without his permission. Really makes it seem like the show really was created to exploit queer culture to sell to curious straights.
I'll be honest- I'm 100% disappointed by drag race this year. There is just no time to see the girls or the outfits fully( a quick up and down is not ok). I'm not watching Weho at all.

He's been in so many things- why add him to this? Thats how I feel
maybe we’ll get hour episodes next year, but they won’t change this season again… tbh once we get down to there being fewer queens i think people might actually start to be able to enjoy the shorter episodes… it’s always toward the later part of the season people start meaning and groaning. it’s been rough starting w 16 girls though.
and why does ANYONE (other than the LANDLORD-😖) care about todrick’ rent?! lololol
It’s cause he was flaunting his wealth for clout in a video about buying his dream home, but people felt deceived when it came out that he was renting
@@basil33 that makes sense. i guess i just never took todrick seriously enough one way or the other to feel disappointed by him- the behaviors are corny and gross, but he is hardly the first in hollywood to try it. i just hope his oz memorabilia is safe in a bathroom somewhere
Dorion is a business man. He read the friggin contract. Gurl bye
The fact that even Todrick admits his inclusion was 'controversial' just shows how out of touch the producers are. I mean... know your damn audience!
And for the record…Dorian is not an actor…he owns his own skincare line.
You know what, we actually have plenty of queer representation in the media, especially in reality TV. What we actually need is relatable and authentic queer people/characters. Seeing rich people flaunt their wealth isn’t relatable to a LOT of queer people. Especially queer people of color, unfortunately. So. Maybe get in a board room with people other than just white WeHo gays.
Im just sad a few of my favorites still try to make “Todrick” a thing but what can you do? Not support what you don’t like and so I will continue to do that
Toddrick is just a shallow person, whose only interested in his personal gain. There has been countless stories that everyone has heard of (specially if you live in LA and frequent the weho scene) about how awful and shady he is. It’s almost like Perez Hilton. Just so shallow and lacking any self awareness.
He was told he was going to be on a show called the The A listers of LA😂😂😂😂?!? Talk about delusion, none of these are anywhere near A list. Not even D list…they’re the wannabes of not even WEHO.
I think we all could see that a group of gay rich guys having fun all together is gonna be the fakest show in history.
Its like fine, I dont care if MTV wants to ass real friends of WEHO to their list. However you play literally 20 hours of Ridiculousness every single day. Why did you have to cut off drag race time if youre so LGBT friendly? Like Im confused
I’m a huge fan of RPDR and not a fan of Todrick…. I miss the longer episodes of RPDR… I also wonder why he’s being casted…
11:34 did Dorian think the production company was rebooting the Logo show The A-List?
the ego you'd have to have to say people don't like your show because they couldn't be on it 😭
Bring back the format of RuPauls Drag Race. We don’t get any insight into the Contestants or the Judges.
Ok I get todrick has done a lot of questionable things, that he said why are people angry that he lied about buying a house that he was renting when that’s pretty much what every single person does on social media is lie and make their lives seem better than they actually?
True
Ummm no people don’t actually do this. And it’s different when you (falsely) brag about your wealth while actively not paying people. Pick a lane are you too broke to pay them, or are you a wealthy star who’s just an ass and doesn’t pay?
I think it’s also pretty different when you film and post what is basically somebody else’s property, post it online for millions, then advertise it as your property. That’s fraudulent
@@beccas7424 that’s literally TONS of people on social media right now lol
WE could have supported the show but put more energy into NOT supporting the show. Either out of loyalty for Drag race or hate for Toddrick which is twisted. I see the hate in the comments and it's unnecessary.
He pays if he promises to ? In which world does a job say that to an employee lol I guess that’s the representation tv should have for lgbt
The fact that they aren’t real friends is what has kept me from watching the show. Just keeping it REAL lol
I believe the cast of WeHo are under fire for many reasons, one of them being Todrick Hall acting like the typical entitled brat and not taking any ownerhsip who prefers to write a letter instead of addressing the issues head on is really pathetic and disingenuous. Secondly, they show no real life struggles within the lgbtq community from not being accepted by their families, hunger, homelessnes, hiv awareness, etc. Lastly, from being a meaningless reality show they are taking up space from my favorite show, it's disheartening that I was so excited for this season just for it to be cut by 50% and rushed through as if it haven't won 24 Emmys.
mean girls reference in 2023... groundbreaking
We don’t care about this show
2:53 RICKY!!! 💜💜💜 Ricky Cornish is this generations Ryan Seacrest. Love him❤️
And as of today starting in March full episodes are back
So......... they are upset with the actors on the show NOT MTV...?
Let's honestly break this down;
MTV made these choices, MTV made the shows, MTV cut Drag Race. Drag Race is edited and done. They aren't going back to fill the edits.
Why are we, as a community, attacking our own when it should be the executives at Paramount?
The fact one of the actors didn't even publicly come out, gross.
I would love to see actual friends like Logo's A List New York. Not the best, but it felt more real.
Feels so wrong of MTV to shorten RPDR and move Untucked. Zero desire to watch Friends of Whatever. I feel for the queens who get on Drag Race and only have a few seconds airtime to show their outfits and and other efforts. Why take such a popular show and lop off a third of it?
Then why was Toddrick being sued for back rent for the same house?
Also people are constantly talking about how Housewives and Bravo lacks in diveristy. Maybe tje show should just be better.
Brad ... isn't he the guy who tried to shade Rachel Zoe ???
It does suck that there was hate against a lot of the members in this show (undeserving hate, btw). Of course, Todrick didn't make it any better with his posts on IG. But I definently feel for the other cast members who were lied to, and who had hated directed at them because of the change in time. But, yeah, the show wasn't diverse at all. I mean it is great that there are black cast on there, that it isn't just a whole bunch of white gays. But if it has to be men, where are bisexual/pansexual men, ace/demi men, trans men? I get that the show has "gay" in it, but gay has been used as an umbrella term for ages now. I just, this show could've been good, but it just felt weird trying to cash in on LGBTQIA+ experience for what? And then we have Drag Race where it's the biggest cast yet, though the episodes are cut down to 40mins, you really lose a lot of drama, and a lot of character with the shorter segments, that now that it's back to the full 60mins, it's going to get a bit boring with only 6 cast members.
Why are other reality shows not receiving a similar backlash though? All people in popular shows of the same genre are 1) privileged 2) entitled 3) problematic. I mean, Kardashians, hello? Any of the Housewives etc? Also, surprised the reality show is scripted and fake? Are you for real?
How is this more representation? It's a net loss, the queens don't get to have a personality in exchange for a small group of gay men taking the shine off a timeslot that should have high ratings.
Omg remember that show The A List: New York??? Yea that show was 10x better than TRFOWeHo....it at least wasn't more honest.
12:06 why aren't enough folks talking about this?!! Like the people casted on the show itself are calling the show out for (except for Todrick ofc)
Toddrick thinks he knows it all. He is very much not humble and a chronic liar. And then thinks we should just like him? Producers are going to stop casting him unless he changes his act. I can see the only reason they keep him around is because he knows how behind the scenes things work.
Real friends shows that gay men can be as shallow as anyone else. Give me more Drag Race, please.
It’s just bad…a comment for each cast member…Host, Arrogant, Self Hating, Boring, Self Obsessed, Most to Lose/Gain. Oh yea and the show it totally fake and doesn’t even try…😮
Why would you need to take away from drag to make room for this housewives knock off? There is barely anything worth watching on MTV.
I was kind of a fan long ago around when his Oz show. Thought was a good talent. However, over the years, learning all of all this drama and attitude and arrogance has tainted his reputation unfortunately. Shame.
Wish him positive energy and hope he can be a better person 🙏
todrick needed the money to finally buy his dream home or at least pay back the rent
