15 Of The Most Underestimated Queens Of RuPaul's Drag Race
15. Tammie Brown: Season 1 of RuPaul’s Drag Race didn’t really give justice to the talent Tammie’s got. Luckily, we got to see it in All-Stars Season 1. Tammie is quirky, bubbly and out of this world. When you see Tammie Brown live you instantly connect to her without any words ever coming out of her mouth. That’s star power.
14. Adore Delano: Currently on Season 6, Adore is a force to reckon with. She may not be as in your face as other queens but this bitch knows how to be a triple threat and tour-de-force. Naturally funny and stunningly beautiful, Adore has what it takes to win the whole thing.
13. Shangela Laquifa Wadley: We all know just how much of a masterpiece Shangela is. We even have celebrities quoting her “Halleloo!” And we all know she is werking it OUT all over the place. Not seen as much of a threat, Shangela has won our hearts and proved that with a little sense of humor and a big heart she can have longevity.
12. Morgan McMichaels: If you watch any of Morgan’s body of work, you know she is as funny and as talented as any of them combined. She is over the top and fabulous and is a huge staple in LA. Just because we talk about Raven and Sharon and Latrice doesn’t mean Morgan can’t hold her own. This one is a powerhouse!
11. Jade Jolie: Proving she is no punk, Jade has reinvented herself time and again and proves that she is in it to win it in everyday life.
10. Yara Sofia: Many people know Yara because of her over the top personality and her one liners, but Yara is one sickening queen! April Carrion definitely pays homage to Yara in many of her stylistic ways and Yara is a life of her own. Anyone who watches her lip sync knows it’s time to turn it out!
9. Magnolia Crawford: This toothpick nosed queen was sent home early but if anyone knows her from YouTube, she is one of the funniest drag queens alive. The lipsync alone should have RuPaul calling her back. Magnolia is unique, funny, original, sassy and wonderful. She’s more than you think.
8. MILK: One of the quirkiest queens ever, MILK is doing her thing and it’s making America good. She doesn’t pose much of a threat or says anything that you may find challenging, but like Jinkx she’s letting her talent show and it may just get her the crown. She is one underestimated queen!
7. Delta Work: This enormous talent cracked under pressure but proves that she is bankable and talented as the rest of them. Delta is the original classy lady and don’t you forget that! And when you look at Darienne’s painted face, just know Delta paved the way.
6. Darienne Lake: Speak of the devil, this one is clever, witty and beautiful. The ones people think are not a big deal actually are. Darienne has fabulous one liners, fabulous taste and just may be the first big girl to get the crown. Fingers crossed!
5. Honey Mahogany: This brown sugary confection got tossed out for her elaborate silk numbers but truthfully, Honey stands on her own. One of the most cherished queens, she just might return to All-Stars 2 and do the damn thing!
4. Lineysha Sparx: This Spanish queen got lost in translation and went home but we all knew she should have returned!! There was no beauty like Lineysha on season 5. If she spruced up on her English, she just might win All Stars…if she’s there…I hope….Anyone?
3. Sonique: This beautiful flower is the real deal. She’s not catty, she’s not bitchy and she’s a winner, just not Drag Race winner. But I wished people saw what I saw. Sonique is one of those women you want to see make it because she deserves it all!
2. Jujubee: Let’s be real, while we all fell in love with Jujubee and she’s one of the most recognizable faces in RuPaul’s Drag Race herstory, Jujubee was quite the underdog. She was thrown to the wolves and came out on top. There were times where she doubted herself and felt like she just could go home, but she made it very far..twice!!
1. Raja: Usually topping all my lists, Raja was one of the drag queens (and continues to be) who always has to explain what kind of drag queens she is. But if you look at her body of work and personality, you know that she deserved that crown and she will always be, to me, the most flawless Drag queen in Drag Race History. She’s stuff of legends and to see her perform is to watch Marlene Dietrich or Bette Davis. She commands the stage and for that moment you feel like you were in the presence of greatness. She was judged, hated on and there were moments where she probably felt like she would go home. She paved the way for drag queens like MILK, Sharon Needles, Magnolia Crawford, Alaska who thought an unaverage kind of drag could mean getting sent home. Nobody understood and Raja made them eat it. Sounds like a winner.
