  • Eureka! You found it! The elephant queen has competed on season 9, season 10, All Stars 6 & The HoliSlay Spectacular. She's had quite the career throughout her trajectory on the show, and hasn't been shy of controversy either. In this video, I go into her journey.

      @starskreem8258 Рік тому +91

      Exactly. If Eureka won the Pink table talk challenge like she should have. She never would have been eliminated at the top 5. It would have likely been Kylie or Ginger. Eureka would have then entered the finale with 2 wins and would have had the best track record. The top 4 most likely would have been Eureka, Rajah, TKB and Ginger and thats where I believe we would have had a double crown of Rajah and Eureka.
      But For whatever reason production isnt willing to let Eureka win despite the fact she is one of Ru Pauls favourite queens. I hope that if they ever let her on a global all stars or another normal all stars that they finally crown her. She is too gifted a drag queen to not be a winner.

    What really rubbed me up the wrong way with the ‘eating dont joke about that’ argument is the whole tictac lunch is based around an eating disorder/dieting joke. From S3 to present day Ru and Michelle have made so many diet/eating disorder jokes as have other queens across all seasons and franchises. It’s uncomfortable how eating disorders can be mocked.
    But because eureka is a bigger girl. Society sees that big = fat not a possible eating disorder such as those like anorexia/bulimia.

      A skinny queen gets laughed off. A big girl would be attacked. The same queens that would attack a big girl will kiss Ru and Michelle’s ass because they’re too 4. They could possibly win.
      It’s funny how the jokes don’t matter when there’s a cheque for 100k on the line. Again, if it was Eurekas drag race all the “don’t joke about that” fly out the window. You can’t hold someone else accountable and no one else.

      @@meowmdosI agree that commenting on somebody’s body is rude no matter what, especially in the context of EDs.
      However it should be understood that, although all sorts of people struggle with ED and self image, fat people undeniably have it the worst in terms of receiving hate, bullying, and vicious abuse under the guise of “wanting you to be healthy”. If you’ve never personally experienced that I don’t think you can understand what it’s like to struggle your whole life over your body image and still be seen as gross and invalid in your struggle while thinner people with similar experiences get much more wide acceptance and sympathy.
      Everything about Eureka’s loudness, competitiveness, and sometimes rude assertiveness reads to me as a deeply hurt person trying desperately to earn respect and admiration they’ve never felt before. I think she definitely deserves compassion and a second chance given the person she has become now. We all know hurt people hurt people but Eureka seems to have grown and learned since then

      My mum did this programme and she lost 40 kilos, mainly through the dieting but also learning other coping mechanisms to help the comfort eating.
      many people eat because of trauma, low self esteem and more and there needs to be the same access for people who are both overweight and underweight, otherwise its going to get worse and our healthcare systems are going to be fighting the consequences of these issues rather than dealing with the issue in the first place.

    I think it's pretty fair to speculate that Jackee Harry is a follower of drag race, and probably took the Vixen's side of things at the time. Nothing shattered the conversation more than when the Vixen said, "Everyone is telling me how to react, but no one is telling her how to act."

    I've known Eureka a long time. Her home club is Newbies in Johnson City but it's sister club (in my mind anyway) is scandals in Asheville NC, which I lived at on the weekends at one time.
    The show really enjoys giving her a villan edit. She has her moments yes. ( ex. My favorite was when my best friend who was super drunk said he tipped her a dollar and she said "Great. Now I can buy a McDouble" he still hates her and its been a decade) but she can also be so kind. I cant say I have alot of interaction with her specifically but I did apologize for my drunk friend and she was kind. And if we ever met in the smoking hole she would always speak

    Mistress Isabelle Brooks is doing a good job as well. So she could reach that level for me as well.
    But for now Eureka is still an incredible queen and I really hate this attitude fans have towards her.

    Altough I completely agree with all of The Vixen's comments and ideas about race, I really do think that she liked to use that a lot in order to defend herself from actually hypocritical behavior. For example, she criticized eureka for saying that "she apologized for her behavior but put no effort in changing it" but it's actually hypocritical because she said the exact same sentiment on untucked on an earlier episode. She spoke about Eureka's quote on quote "unprofessionalism" during snatch game and tried to get the girls on board to criticize her for that but literally all the girls went to defend eureka, even girls who were supporting the vixen at all times like monique and asia, which shows her delusion at that point. And even off the show she's still having beef with both bob and monet

    That moment with Gia was purely for the camera, so Eureka could get shown in a positive light, and that's why Gia was not interested in hearing it in that moment.

    I honestly was surprised you didnt mention the irony of the Lip Sync episode from All Stars and how Eureka was hated on yet again for beating Silky and coming back right after she was eliminated. Silky was also really REALLY hated in her original season and had a massive redemption in All Stars and when Eureka beat her I saw a lot of ironic hate from fans (most of whom probably hated on Silky during S11). But alas, I dont think our Elephant Queen will ever get the true respect she deserves. Thankfully We're Here has her cast in a much better light.
