We will never be able to look at beads the same!
It’s Saturday and you know what that means? A brand new episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 13!
Comedy was the category for episode seven with the girls dusting off their improv chops and stopping by Ross Matthews talk show Bossy Rossy After Dark. From comedic gold to a beaded filled runway the queens laid it all out on the table.
Check out some of our favourite moments below.
1: The opening of the Library!
We have now come to that time of the season where the Library officially opens. For the mini-challenge, the girls are given a chance to READ each other to filth (all in the name of love of course).
Denali threw shade at Utica and Gottmik while praising Olivia’s pearly white smile.
Symone hilariously read Tina Burner by poking fun at her drag name.
Whereas most of the queens delivered in the Library, Elliot with 2 T’s struggled a bit to land her reads.
After sharing a few laughs Gottmik was crowned the winner of the mini-challenge!
2: Olivia Lux and Symone Bossy Rossy personalities.
For this week’s Maxi challenge the queens were told to “improv for their life” as guests on the trashy talk show Bossy Rossy After Dark.
For the challenge, the queens were paired off in either a duo or a trio by Mother Ru herself.
Each girl brought their own to their assigned characters and delivered some hilarious moments.
But Olivia Lux and Symone stood out as their characters Cheryl the ex-mime and Lil Deb Deb aka DebOrah.
From the minute these queens showed up on set their acting and jokes shinned, showcasing their undeniable comedic skills and versatility hunny!

3: Elliot with 2 T’s and Tina Burner discussing mental health
After the queens rambunctious appearances on Bossy Rossy After Dark the queens headed to the werkroom to prepare for the runway challenge.
During this time viewers were treated to a truly heartwarming moment between Elliot with 2 T’s and Tine Burner.
While getting glammed up, Elliot opened up to Tina about feeling ostracized by the other girls after the maxi challenge.
“And it’s just like you know, you get to a point where it’s like, it gets to you,” Elliot says.
Tina went on to explain how the other girls may have pushed her to the side due to them not knowing who she really is.
Elliot went on to open up about her ongoing fight with depression stating: “I think a lot of my insecurities with how I interact with others comes from, like, I have a pretty severe case of clinical depression.”
She continued: “I have since I was about 13 and so I think that’s why I kind of put in that face, that mask because I don’t want anyone to think, ‘oh girl, she has depression’.”
During a confessional Tina praises Elliot for being open about his mental health while also talking about his own mothers battle with depression.
“My mom’s had depression since I was a kid. Without pills, my mom is a very different person.
“I grew up in a household of that so I know how hard it is to be around and how hard it is to deal with it,” Tina said.
It was so nice to see Tina Burner and Elliot with 2 T’s share their struggles with mental health and bring more attention to this important conversation.
Depression is real . Remember to listen and remember to love . We all could use more love. https://t.co/rNtSsRkh6W

“This look is one of my all-time favourites and it is a design that came straight from my mind.
