Things I Lurve: RuPaul's Drag Race

Mondays on Logo, there's a new show that very nearly provides a worthy substitute for Project Runway. It's RuPaul's Drag Race, in which aspiring drag divas compete in challenges involving fashion, makeup, wigs, lip synching, product pitching, celebrity interviewing...

Sounds pretty good, doesn't it? It is. And the best part, of course, is the divine RuPaul hermself, who acts as both Tim Gunn:

AND Heidi Klum.

If you're still not sold, let me briefly summarize: bitchy drag queens connive over scarce makeup, hair and fashion resources to compete for a prize. The two queens with the lowest scores are forced to lip synch for their lives to such classics as "The Greatest Love of All." Miss Ru sends the loser off with the words "sashay away."

If you're still not sold, you're reading the wrong blog.
