She was introduced to many of us on Season 4 of Rupaul’s Drag Race being the reality “villain” of the season, was promised a redemption arc in All Stars 2 and was once again the reality villain of the season, and has since shown the world that maybe it was just the edit. Her compassion for charity is phenomenal and her beautiful cosplay looks took her into the mainstream media. Her name is Phi Phi O’Hara and she’s about to be EXPOSED: Virtual Edition! #PhiPhiOHara #DragRace #Rupaul

I used my Manscaped to give myself a quarantine haircut, IT DOES IT ALLLLLL
Joseph Shepherd can i use this even as a woman because i dont care for them lady products
Make mistakes but just don't make them again.
Love joseph
"The cast of Cats did not show up to the premiere dressed as cats." I love that analogy, so true!
This
Cause they are praised for being actors, not by their drag personas. That's a delusional statement.
Drag race fans be calling people “delusional” thinking they’re so creative, original, and funny
@@brandon080693 I called that statement delusional, lol. it's not personal. Even RuPaul had struggle to be valued out of drag.
@@NomadOracle He struggled to be valued out of drag so instead of making it easier for new generation to be valued for who they are themself, make them struggle even more on purpose? What's the logic here? And actors were praised for being actors because they present themself as actors, not characters they're playing. If you want to be recognized as artist, don't act as character you're playing 100% of the time. If showing up out of drag wouldn't be allowed by contract, it wouldn't happen, so it's free choice
RuPaul hosts the show and goes to events out of drag all the time, so what’s the problem with Jaremi attending events out of drag?
He is completely irrelevant out of drag, henny. He is not Rupaul.
@@NomadOracle at least jaremi is good looking in and out of drag
@@NomadOracle I mean, I don't like her all that much but if you give Milk the gender fluid pass you're just a piece of sht. Lol, if they want me in drag they should pay double. Just the tea. The fact that you're making it about worth lollllll
@@NomadOracle damn which season of drag race where u on?
@@NomadOracle so rude ....really dude???
You are a remarkable interviewer. Your questions show that you're well researched, none of those annoying hollow questions you hear sometimes. Thank you for putting this out and making it work during this time. You could have easily just postponed it, and no one would have blamed you, but you still found a way to put it out and I appreciate you for that.
Phi Phi only said one-or-two "mean" things. The rest of the time, she was fine.
People like Raven were WAY more brutal and mean. Raven said horrible things non-stop about the other queens during her first season...but everyone seems to forget that and gives Raven a pass?!
Difference between her and others, is that Raven owns it. She owns what she said, shes bitch, a bad bitch.
@@vapor5145 this... Do NOT excuse anything
Actually it's worse because shows how delusion someone can be about such a bad behavior to the point they think it's ok to own it.
Raven has conviction behind what she does. I'm not saying it's right but that type of confidence is something people like to stand behind. Phi phi seems meek and it comes off as disingenuous. That's not good when you're on a tv show.
@@VirgoVyrus i can see your point.
I think Phi Phi does lack confidence...and her only "villain" moments occured when she was pushed into a corner and snapped. Her outbursts did seem they came from a place of anxiety rather than cocky hatred.
@@vapor5145 Also, find the lie in what Raven says. She's the Vixen of her season, but the difference is fans like her.
People act like Rupaul is the messiah of drag. And yes, he has done a lot for drag, but he is not above criticism and he is not perfect. He isn't the be all end all of drag either.
I respect him as an artist, and I'm a fan of the show, but I definitely watch it with a different perspective than i used to.
The fact that Rupaul will only let trans queens on the show unless they are pre-transition or they pause transition, while allowing cis queens who have had a slew of feminizing surgeries shows his hypocrisy and transphobia.
Jaremi is right, Rupaul doesn't give a shit about his contestants unless they are making him money. Look how fast he will turn his back on any queen who gives him a sliver of criticism or disagree with him.
I think fame has gotten to is head. And i hope someday someone brings him down a few pegs.
While i was sad to see Ben De La fo from AS3, i was happy for her because it was like a big fuck you to Rupaul when she eliminated herself.
Spoonie Justice Warrior get over it... seriously
I totally agree with all your points and I don't plan on adding more to the topic, the one thing I disagree with you about Ben Dela Creme was that, I feel like RuPaul didn't care about the elemination or did not take it as a big fuck you because it brought more attention, drama, etc and that was RuPaul wants.
RuPaul wants money (so do I and many people so thats not an issue), they want fame, and to be remembered. And I think it has shown over the years and seasons. He doesn't care about the show as much ( i think now) because he knows that no matter what the fans will eat it up or maybe he does care but not enough or is only following what he is told, which I feel, he didn't 100% do in earier seasons. But I am not him and so i can only speculate and guess and talk shit
@@DGR1998 no, i will not "get over" blatant transphobia and discrimination.
Rupaul would suck at his own challenges.
Mitch Conrad Trans women built the drag community. Drag is an art form that anyone can do.
Could not agree with Jaremi more when he explained why he didn’t go as PhiPhi to press week, why did people have such an issue with it? When people interview Chris Hemsworth, they are interviewing him, not Thor - why should it be any different?
I will say that drag queens are slightly different. Part of the press event and the promo for the show is to see them all get there in some OTT drag getup, in character. But the fans shouldn't expect these people to remain frozen in amber .
IT3210 yeah I get what you mean but we get to know the people behind the character more than the character in my opinion so I think it should be okay for a queen to go not in drag without hate
Well honey because Chris maybe is not in Thor costume that time. But PhiPhi is..
When people interview Natalie Portman they call her by her stage name 🤷🏽♂️ it’s PhiPhi and Tyra that have that choice and it’s a choice 😂
Chris Hemsworth should be banned from wearing clothes when he's giving interviews.
This is by far the best interview I've seen related to rpdg. I will be honest, i wasn't a Phi Phi fan watching season 4(despite admiring her pure talent, that was undeliable) , but over the years I've seen just what exactly the show does to make its contests look a certain way. The world is not black and white. You're not inheritly evil or good. But we can change. My favorite part was him owning up to who he was and the way he acted. It shows so much growth and responsibility, and i admire that so much. Jaremi, i don't think you'll ever see this, but i have gained so much love and respect of you as an artist and a person. People have said such horrible things about you, i can't imagine how hard that must have been. Not to mention i can see the pain in your eyes as you answer some of the harder questions. You are so so strong. I am sending you all my love from the other side of the world ❤️
ria dsouza well said!
ria dsouza Well said. That’s exactly what I came away with. I only started to admire Jaremi when he had the balls to be a disruptive and do the publicity out of drag.
rupaul seems nasty when he doesn't get what he wants. it's such a shame because honestly, i didn't like phi phi! it worked on me! the editing can really screw someone. none of the fans really know what it's like to be on the show, so i think in terms of being vocal about "hating" a queen, we should all just shut up. it doesn't bring any good to send a human being angry messages. with that said, i'll still be watching drag race every season. it's a good show!
Sarah Anne They edit the show to fit the queens in a narrative they want to tell. Highlighting nasty comments from the ones that are going to be the bitches/divas/snakes of the season. It can really change the way we see them. I personally don’t think the editing is Rupaul’s fault.
It’s bad to manipulate their character like that because they’re real people. And it can actually affect their reputations and jobs.
But at the end of the day it’s entertainment. I mean, honestly, it wouldn’t be that fun without the drama.
I don’t like rupaul as a person, hate how drag race fans see him as some kind of god who can do no wrong
olive x I read that it was in an article with Pearl talking about drag race
I think about RuPaul as a person who has been in the 'industry' for decades so drag is a job to her at this point....I don't think she actually enjoys drag anymore but that's what he gets paid to do. Ru was more genuine in the earlier seasons w/ the queens (Raven, Latrice, etc.) and still has her faves (i.e. Vanjie) but I think she's pretty distant w/ the queens now.
The trans thing (to me) is moreso a network issue and not a Ru issue (which is why she always redirects the conversation when trans issues are brought up). Until recently (w/ OITNB and Pose) trans people had to hide in the entertainment industry or they weren't getting jobs unless it was demeaning af. I think they'll showcase trans queens NOW because it's more 'socially acceptable' than it may have been before.
@@ciaram1323 because we won’t had drag race without him. And drag was outside of mainstream until he filled how life with so many queens. So he gracious to someone that gave us more than most even that you and your ungrateful a$$
Only wanna say as a Brazilian myself that Brazilians love Phi Phi’s authenticity and 0 tolerance for bullshit! ❤️ Come to Brazil when this ongoing coronavirus pandemic nightmare is over, my queen! 🇧🇷
Could not agree more. Jeremy loves Brazil, and the feeling is mutual.
I feel like it's so easy to villianize someone for good TV, but I always saw Jaremi ("Phi Phi") as a good person with emotionally flawed moments, which is super relatable. I consider myself a good person and I think most people in my life do. But I've had super ugly moments (much uglier than Phi Phi had on her respective seasons) and if I was judged solely based on those, people would view me quite differently than they do in my everyday life.
I really want to commend Joseph for being able to conduct interviews of this depth given the circumstances. His editing skills were excellent, to the point I almost forgot this was a Skype interview! Keep up the spectacular work, and stay safe!👍🏻
From myself and my people back home I want to say *THANK YOU JEREMY a.k.a. Phi Phi FOR ALL YOU DID FOR PUERTO RICO!*
We will be forever grateful for your kindness and love! 🇵🇷❤
Also, if I may add for those who cannot separate a show from a person in real life. Please don't believe what a "reality tv" show push as narratives and edits. Jeremy is such an amazing human being. That's all, thank you!
Athena GM Puro Verdad! I agree!
Jeremy is so sweet and wholesome when he's not being edited. I just restarted allstars 2 yesterday and you can tell the horrible story the producers were going for. I'm glad Adore left when she did.
Yes I think Adore was going to win the show and was going to be favored but she saw how fake and dumb the show is. She said no ma’am ! She didn’t sign up for that
Don't agree. Yes Jeremy is sweet now and he might have always been sweet but he definitely did say what he said and was shady.
Just so you know it’s Jaremi :) production is screwing up this show.
@@HeavyMetalKittenx Oh thank, I knew I was spelling his name wrong but I wasn't sure in what way.
@@Skorpi00007 Well he did say in the interview that he intended to be a villain on season 4 so...
These people hating on Phi Phi in the comments are the fans that don’t understand the PRODUCTION behind the show. T o x i c
Ryan Lewis shes just annoying
Even so the show definitely makes sure we hate/love certain people by highlighting their bad/good parts while hiding away everything else just for entertainment. If Phi Phi really is such a bitch, it would still be messed up for her to be publicly shamed all the time because the show’s editors thought it would be good to frame them in a certain way to make good drama.
Yea I can see where you’re coming from! I do kind of get a bitchy or outright horrible vibe (🍒🥧) from many of the queens outside of the show. Im probably being too optimistic but I think the show can do crazy things to the people on it and maybe Phi Phi didn’t handle it well? Not sure, but I do definitely see what you’re saying
Troy Hardie Honestly RuPaul is probably my least favorite queen on the show! Some stuff she has done and said really are gross 😭 Also love Katya
You can tell my comments who LISTENS.....and who are just force fed fans of the show.
Those people don't deserve my time.
Thank you for watching and showing love!
You are an amazing interviewer!!
I hope you expose Adore someday! :)
Adore was my first drag interview like 5 years ago. I am waiting for her to respond to do an Exposed!
Nice!!
@@JosephAShepherd please try to get a hold of Rebecca Glasscock!!!! would love to see her
AGlassOfWhine ohhhhh i second this!! I know Rebecca doesn’t do drag anymore but that would make it so much more interesting
@@LaMenteOpen I thought she returned to Drag!
This interviewer is SO GREAT and RESPECTFUL! It’s amazing how he can see the situations through Phi Phi’s perspective and give her some validation! Also amazing how he can bring sensitive topics to the table without making it weird or gross! LOVED THIS! (also LOOOOVE Jeremy)
Great interview! It was great to hear Jeremi without the WOW filter. I did have a weird moment at the beginning trying to figure out whose voice I was being reminded of (Miz Cracker).
another great drag artist interview! I'm calling them "Underneath The Foundation". Jeremi seems like a very grounded person with a big heart that is actually helping to make the world a better place.
I would like to remind everyone that PhiPhi gave her phone call to Chad Michaels so the latter could talk to his partner. And PhiPhi even said that she wanted to win for that sole reason.
Yeah, PhiPhi can be bitchy - but hey, with her past and her being a drag queen (throwing shade is a lifestyle, darlin'), it's understandable. She can get angry pretty easily too. She's not a villain, but it's pretty easy to paint her as one.
girl... just because of one time she gave Chad her call makes her a saint?? she was rude to the girls and said to Sharon that if she (Phi Phi) didn't tell Sharon to do goth Sharon would not have won the challenge? hmmm kind of makes me think a little different of her... then she goes off about Alyssa and the judges say that "oh you could wear that because your Alyssa" girl... that kind of plain bitchyness. Like I like Phi Phi but her attitude was a little bit bitch and just cuz she is a drag queen does not give her the right to be rude and make ppl feel like shit, there is a difference between throwing shade and being a bitch.
@@keenmiller3403 stop fucking obsessing over whatever you see in the show and just the show. That show is not real life. And it never will be.
@@keenmiller3403 just think of her as a reality tv character. She was here for our entertainment (and she really was entertaining). What matters is her character in real life, which just fine. Maybe better than Sharon’s.
I always wanted to see what this hatred for phi phi was about after watching the season i felt confused. She was so misunderstood and everyone came for her first.
Claiming Sharon would go home first episode 🤷🏽♂️ guess PhiPhi was the first on that one plus jiggly was her friend and never said nothing about PhiPhi and Alyssa never said anything bad about PhiPhi so 🤷🏽♂️
This made me see Jaremi in a whole different light and it makes my heart happy.
You're literally the best interviewer I ever watched. Great job !! I'm always looking forward to a new episode of Exposed, really hope you'll do many more!
Jeremi is so talented and generous, and that laugh gets me smiling every time.
PhiPhi is a genius. 365 days of drag,Harry Potter cosplay,she designed mermaid dress for Monet X Changed. She's a production!
Like seriously people-stop hating her
What's she said: there is no reality in reality TV show
This was such a lovely interview. I’m so happy to see Jeremy happy.
You are an AMAZING interviewer!! You're an active listener and very very sweet. All your interviews are always 10/10 yesss
I’m so glad they got to talk about Adore in coherence to everything. I identified with Adore when I had a really neglectful friendship that time, and I’m glaaaad that people agree that it was the right thing for her to leave for herself. I thought it was iconic.
Congrats, very good interview. I was not expecting silly questions anyway, but you have really facilitated Jaremi to give a well-rounded picture of Phi-Phi and more generally of his art. I am still not convinced that Phi Phi on the show was completely a character, but I was neither there during filming or in the editing room, so I can't really know about it. In any case I wish him the best. Btw after reading some comments, I don't know what sound quality were people expecting from a Skype interview, but Joseph has fine audio quality in his regular videos. If you don't like something given to you for free, just leave it aside, or give polite feedback, making rude complaints is just unnecessary and contributes nothing.
Κωστής Σπηλιώτης I think she got too in her head about how she came across to the fans so that’s why she acted out in AS2. If she just have been herself or own the fact that she’s a bitch sometimes, people would’ve lived for it more.
Started off wishing that Phi Phi had leaned into the villain edit and ended up totally believing in and understanding what Jaremi is doing. He has a beautiful light around him and his heart and it shines through. I'm excited for his future projects and want to check out his master classes.
At one point it even looked like Josheph was fan boying along with us. Thank you 💗💗💗
You bring the positivity out of your guest every time with so much knowledge and awareness!
It feels like a catch up with a friend that you didn’t talk to for weeks!
They must feel great after being interviewed by you!
Well done Joseph for your relevant questions and great answers from Jeremy!
❤️❤️
When I watched season 4 I really hated Phi Phi, but then I remembered that the editors and producers actually control the way the queens look so now I don't hate her because I understand that it was all faked by the producers of the show. Also this interview helps me like him and sympathize with him about his experience in the show.
This really was a wonderfully illuminating interview. I love how Jeremy has taken control of his life and his career. I also love how he has insisted on separating his drag and his characters from the real person.
SO many queens seem to lose themselves in their drag identity.
Wishing all the best for Jeremy. 🙏🏼
So glad that she'll have a chance to enlighten us about everything Phi Phi. Not always agree with her but always respect her point of view.
I am living for Jaremi reading Rupaul to filth and I am also happy for Jaremi being a strong, independent individual and artist.
Wow, he made me realize sooo many things that were on my face about the show and how drags are shown on it. I now have so much genuine respect for this queen. It's sad that most of us, the fans, as she said 'got stucked years ago'.
What a nice interview. I'm not a hardcore fan of RPDR, so I didn't know much of Jeremy beside his Phi Phi persona. It was such a nice interview, I always suspect that Sharon and PhiPhi were acting up and were secretly friends. I also felt uncomfortable watching All Stars 2, because the 'shady' editing was QUITE obvious. I still watch RPDR because is entertaining, but I don't take it too seriously.
You are an amazing inteviewer. Great questions, totally respectful and natural. Love it!
I like how well her make-up is blended, her outfit is a toot, she has grown since S3 and AS2 so much.
S4*
Phi Phi was very Under-rated for her Fashion sense and Over-rated for controversy …..Phi Phi is an Amazing queen and creates Unique and One of a kid things! xo
Phi Phi shoulda won the Bitch Ball 100x
It would also have been better for the "plot" to have Sharon and Phi Phi tied instead of Sharon having four wins
Sorry, but I am sure the “edit” didn’t account for everything. You can tell by the reaction of just about every other contestant. I think the producers encouraged bad behavior for ratings, etc., but it was still bad behavior.
I honestly wish this interview was longer. I could listen to both of these angels speak for DAYSSS
Just got done watching this interview. Joseph, what an incredible job! Such great questions and I LOVE this format! I must admit that I did feel a certain type of way about her before watching this interview. I will say my viewpoint began to change for the better once I heard Phi Phi speaking on Alaska’s and Willam’s pod cast. And now, with this interview, I have full respect for her and understand her point of view. Thank you for another outstanding interview about an incredible and talented artist. :)
Ever since All Stars 2 there was something about Phi Phi that began to resonate with me. I went on to see her on the Christmas Queens tour and she was the only queen in the cast to mention anything to do with my country at all. Criminally underrated, and what an excellent interview!
I've always found it goofy as hell to expect drag queens to be role models. There are not many famous artists that aren't absolutely insane and that's the fun of it because their art is so good.
I'm surpised how Rupaul always talks about The Wizard of Oz, yet people can't seem to see behind the curtains. I love the show, but for me it's clear how they are able highlight some parts. Look how they were able to erase Sherry Pie this season even if she's one of the strongest contestant.
Ok but she was a predator so wtf is your point?
@@mintvelvet3351 My point is they were able to edit Jaremi as the vilain by showing only the bad parts and adding some dramatic music to it. I think you may need to calm down.
Blame it on production more than the editing
I just love seeing Jaremi truly happy. Loved the interview Joseph!! ❤️
I always like her. She is the nicest queen I ever met. I met her at a Halloween party and I asked for an autograph and she was nice about it. Later I went to a Halloween VOSS Event and she was dressed as Bianca Del Río and I thought she was her, Phiphi’s craft is out of this world. Talent and craft all the way.
This was nice. Honestly, the fanbase is so stupid at times.
Yes, we are PASSIONATE!
It's good to know that Brazilian fans' mentality is also changing, and we're getting to look at Jaremi as a person, and not as a character anymore. ♡
Lovely interview. Nice to see him being happy and chilled. 💜♥️💜
My issue with Phi Phi on AS2 is that she said Alyssa was throwing people under the bus and when people called her out she tried to pass it off as an opinion. Sis, what you said was a lie, but the context was acting like it was an observational fact and no one even properly called her out on that.
But what phiphi said was true...? Alyssa WAS way more concerned with throwing the others under the bus during deliberations.
Omg what a genuinely delightful, effervescent human being. This is such a lovely interview, I love how respectful both are and hearing him laugh and be so happy and comfortable is honestly super soul warming. Thanks to both for sharing such a lovely time with us 😊 ❤
I’m not even halfway through this video and I just want to say that I love what you represent and what you stand for. I was rooting for you (we were all rooting for you) during season 4 and I knew you were just playing during All Stars. I’ll also say that Tati, You and Roxxxy have always been my favorites. Much love and respect.
I must add that the episode where you presented your political debate was the best!
Phi Phi is an incredible, resourceful queen who went to the bottom and rebuilt herself up. This interview really does her justice. Great job!
I don't see any difference between the PhiPhi from S4 and AS2 and Jeremi in this interview. He wants to be seen as an angel when he's just like any other queen or person: he makes mistakes and he can be mean and say or do the wrong things, and that's fine! She will always be an iconic queen from two of the best RPDR seasons.
Yep he’s a total psycho.
Good for Jaremi. Glad he's doing great.
And Joseph is such a great interviewer (and SO CUTE).
i love that you ask everyone! are you happy? people forget the power of that question and the power in their answer! i am HOOKED on your interviews and channel! thank you!!
"There's no reality in reality TV"
It's true 👌
I think we can all relate to the "I used to hate you when I watched s4 and then I get to know you on social media and omg "
This is a great interview, really showed more of Jaremi and how perceptions can be super deceiving.
Great interview Joseph! One of the few decent interviewers out there x
Season 4 of Drag Race was honestly the turning point for the franchise. The calm before the storm, before it really blew up. I’ve been watching since the second season and although 4 isn’t what DR is really known for, that was the first season shit really changed! I have to respect everybody that comes from that season, they helped build this franchise. All of those girls deserve their chips for that Season.
Wow... I love your interviews... Getting to see this Queens is awesome... Much love to phi phi! And you!
Joseph is the Oprah of drag. 💖 Great interview
I absolutely agree!
So so good !!!! Great interview!!!
this was an excellent interview. Well done as usual. Jaremi shared so much wisdom. I've liked him before, but a bigger fan after this. Thank you
This has helped me see him in a whole other way, he actually seems like a really nice person who is not afraid to speak the truth about the show no matter what backlash he will get
This interview proves that we don't have to take the show too seriously. Phi Phi may have attitude but she is not mean, she understands how tv works and she enjoyed her character,not like others who play nice and then in real life are different. I loved this interview! ❤️
Jaremi is so aesthetically gorgeous both in and out of drag, I'm honestly transfixed every time I see them 😍
365 days of Drag is one of the greatest achievements in Drag imo. Thank you Jeremi.
Loved seeing Jaremi get a chance to be open and honest. Going into Allstars 2, I was hoping that the show would portray a better side of her and was disappointed when they clearly didn't. Growing up in an abusive household is rough and the toll it can take on a human being is often long lasting. We should have gathered around her and loved her from the beginning because we know that often when people lash out, it comes from a deeper internal struggle. She's got such a heart and I hope everyone can see that now.
Your interviews are PHENOMENAL! Well researched, well presented and one thing is that I love how you are genuinely interested in what your guest has to say.
I've only been following Jaremi for a few months now, but he seems like such a sweet, caring individual. Grossly underrated and incredibly talented and I can only see upward trajectory for him from here.
This made me completely change my mind about Jeremy. He’s definitely super kind and philanthropic. RPDR is so shady for how they edited him.
what a sweetheart jeremi is ❤️ and on top of that, just a really interesting and creative person.
I hated Phi Phi until this video. She’s so taken away the power of the WOW villain edit by not taking it seriously. Girl, I like you now. You are talented. I’m a fan.
Are people still thinking that she was a villian? I never saw that so I don't get it. =/
some people are delusional
I know, right?
All she said was "Go back to Party City"? Ooh...so evil!?! Lol
Other queens like Raven said absolutely worse stuff about their fellow contestants
@@MaleOrderBride The early seasons have the archetype villian character . My personal belief is that she operated from a place of self preservation. Yeah she was bitchy but it never really went past that.
welllll to me her villain moment was when she shat on willam HARD, and i mean HARD bitch, she apologized and truly regret this but yeaaaaah she wasn't (i stress the fact that i use the past tense, phi phi now is a great person) an angel per say
@@MaleOrderBride Hum... did you miss the part where she called Willam a disgusting person, that she didn't respect her and should've gotten kicked off the show? Phi Phi was brutally bitchy to other contestants on Untucked.
What an amazing interview! Made me realise that I was completely fooled by the villain edit xxx
AMAZING! Thank you for your diligence, kindness, and courage! This is the content WE as a community should embrace and encourage!!! Xoxo
Great interview. Jaremi is smart, but he's also a bit too defensive. I think that made it easy for the producers to turn him into a villain.
thank you as I always felt phi phi - Jeremy got a raw edit and should have been annpyed as your reputation is the only thing we really own. so to see him rise above their ayyempt to smear his rep is wonderful. always been one of my favorites.
Omg I love phi phi, I really started to like her after she was on ru’s podcast and she opened up ❤️❤️
she was on ru’s podcast??
you mean she was on "what's the tee" podcast? thats the only podcast i know Ru does. Sis tell me what im missing.
I thought RuPaul hates Jaremi tho?
Jaremi you are amazing and beautiful! I’m so very happy that you are doing all that you are. The world is your oyster as they say! ❤️❤️❤️
It honestly shocks me how anyone could genuinely fall for Ru's 'Say Love' schtick. He's allowed to live his life in a deluded bubble and nothing about him is true. It's a character!
RuPaul has done so much and gave a platform to these queens so they shouldn't complain when being portrayed a certain way, and just be grateful that they were given exposure? Do not forget that RuPaul made money out of these queens, too. RuPaul is being raised to the level of being the Messiah of Drag, but she's doing this because of money. What made these queens famous is because of their talent, not because of RuPaul. RuPaul benefited from these queen.
So just because someone helps you elevate your platform doesn’t mean that you can’t criticize their actions? Nobodies perfect and if someone feels like criticizing that it’s within their right to do so. No one complains about this with Willam or Courtney Act when they did it. The Phi Phi O’Hara hate at times is just a large double standard and I’m not here for it.
@@GrapeBird I think they're saying the opposite of that. They ended the comment by saying RuPaul benefitted by making money off of the queens. The person pointed out that that the queens were talented prior to Drag Race and that their runs on the show financially benefit RuPaul. I think they're trying to make the point that the queens are talented and just because RuPaul profits off of them/gives them exposure doesn't mean he's not open to criticism.
I loved Phi Phi on both seasons. I knew it was editing that created Phi Phi the villain. The moment with Sharon was just a freaking moment. Like it hasn’t been seen before in any past, present or future episodes. If anyone thinks that, they’re really not paying attention.
Great interview as always!
You're looking more like a snack even in quarantine 😍😍😍
Great interview. Glad that Jeremi did this to clear the air about his time on drag race, that the villain/bad guys is not who he is in life & to say it’s just a tv show. He’s incredibly talented too!
Jeremy is my favourite artist from Drag Race after this. What an absolute honey.❤
I'm only 12 minutes in but wow, this is such a good interview. Phi Phi annoyed me so much on season 4. Love the new perspective this has given me
Ugh, I love this! Jeremi seems like such a sweetheart! Thank you for showing us what drag race failed to ❤️
Really great interview!!! so many great questions. can’t wait for your future interviews with other queens
Thank you,I am grateful you both made this video.
I was like you, had a completely different opinion of PhiPhi prior to this, glad you did this Thank you ♥
That's why I'm watching! I hated PhiPhi 🤦😅.
Phi Phi is a brilliant artist and I love hearing her speak about the show; she's proof that what we see is such a tiny, manipulated reflection of who these queens are and what they're capable of.
I gotta say, I found Phi Phi on insta when she did the 365 days of drag and I fell in love with her creativity - I was so surprised to see her on drag race a year later when I started watching. Just saying shes right that she made her name on her own without drag race.
Jeremy you really killed this interview and you really made me look at situations throughout your drag queen career so differently thanks for opening my eyes. Thank you fo sharing your art as a drag queen
I think by disconnecting himself from Phi Phi he feels able to move on and all things he said/did in the past was just his character, not him. A very smart way to look at it, wish him the best.
I feel like you're still not getting it. He didn't really do anything that bad... he was just bitchy a few times on a reality TV show about a drag queen competition in order to make it entertaining to the viewers. He also said that at the time he did it because he liked the ideas of villains from comic books etc, which shows this disconnect from all the way back then.
It's not like he was recently like "damn, I need to move on from that, I was bad back then" so he tried disconnecting himself - he knew what he was doing from the start (and as do all the other queens).
Thank you Joseph for another amazing interview. I listened to it while driving to and from work. You’re super talented! And thank you for interviewing Jeremy.
I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed, and even “I” know reality tv is NOT reality. On that note I will say this: I love Jeremy even more now bc of your interview. Bc of Joseph, I got to see a whole other side of Jeremy. And I’m thankful for it.
I'm late as heck but I love that u did this specific interview because I've never had the chance to see Jaremi this stress-less, and they tried telling us a long time ago that DR is heavily edited. What's crazy is how Ru had even said "I invited Phi Phi to come speak her mind but she refused" so l'm happy they didn't go to AS2.
There's a vlog that Nelson Sullivan recorded back before he passed away(it's on 5ninthavenueproject a channel on YT)and he went with a few friends in drag(including Ru)to PRIDE and Ru just deserted them. It's like she used them to get her there and then took off? When the queens started coming out with how messed up and nasty Ru is to them and Mathieu Anderson, it reminded me back to when she ditched the man she calls her "mentor" and ran off? Maybe things would've been different if Nelson was still here(MA also was supposed to be a good friend of hers as well)possibly not?
