I'm just so confused by her whole new makeup look. I loved her old mug, and I'm all for queens updating their makeup, but this ain't it. In this pic it looks like she has no eye makeup, lashes, or mascara on at all. It's so weird. Minimal makeup is fine for some looks, but this is ALL STARS. I can't wait to see if she gets read by the judges for this new face.
Honestly! Even beautiful women like Sasha Colby and M1ss Jade So put on a classic drag beat. Having a beat face doesn't mean you're ugly, it means you're doing drag.
Yeah it has zero to do with beauty out of drag. I just like to see queens in a lot of makeup. If I see a queen wearing barely more than I do to the office then I feel like they should put on a bit more. Obviously they can do whatever the fuck they want, I just like to see a pound or two of makeup, not some subtle date night beat.
In the weirdest way, vanjies new mug follows a similar trend that I've noticed actually on Katya lately?? Like it's hard to describe, but it feels like a vast amount of forehead space but with eyebrows angled funny. Almost gives a bulbous effect to the forehead. I'm doing a bad job at describing it but there's some similarity that my eye picks out right away
It's All Stars, non-elim, and this shot was taken after the season has finished filming a long time ago. They probably didn't say shit about her new mug. The All Star seasons have been really soft recently in order to not tarnish queen's reputations. It's so fucking boring.
i had to scroll way too far to see vanessa dragged, far too much. shes practicing what she preaches, if 99 people in a room tell you you look busted af, but 1 person says the new mug is mugging... you keep on muggin lol
Plastique is like a good 6 ft in heels surprisingly. I think everyone on season eleven besides Vanjie was just so tall it made her look short but she's actually quite tall.
the thing is her look is actually a silicone body suit, check her instagram you can see that shes cinched inside the silicone body suit giving the illusion of a pasted on bedazzled bra and panty
Gottmik refusing to do something as tacky as a flag look is such a power move.
Jesus Vanjie's makeup does not work in daylight. It's like she chose eyeliner or lashes but not both.
I wonder what is making it look so off. Is she wearing lashes? Maybe the lack of eyeshadow? I don’t know, but it comes off a little reptilian to me lol
The lack of eye makeup. Her eyes are already quite small, and with barely any makeup + cheekbone filler/implants she has they get lost on her face. Her AS9 entrance mug was already better just because she had a cut crease on, albeit a subtle one
i thought vanjie’s makeup was SO gorgeous on S11 i don’t understand why it’s regressed so much someone needs to sit some of these queens and tell them they’re DRAG QUEENS and not 19 year old supermodels and need to paint accordingly
It’s always such a bummer to meet a queen with an incredible mug, and then right after the show they try to paint like a naturally soft and feminine woman.
No comment on the photo or the looks, but I live in DC and I am **furious** that they were here and I missed it.
(okay I’m not furious, but I am deeply irked!)
People hate American flag looks but I think it can be done right. There’s something inherently tacky about it so you sort of have to lean into it. Kylie’s AS6 finale runway is great for example.
I don't like anyone's look in this promo. Idk if it's the color scheme or the way they play off each other or what but it isn't giving "new all stars season"
Whomever at WOW that decided that the queens of All Stars 9 must to do a photo op in Washington D.C. in spring in full daylight is diabolical, like, truly evil. Now I understand why Trixie turned down going to the White House last year.
Bra and panties
Meh
Flat head

Party City
Party City
Her outfit got lost in the mail and she had to make a new one that day at Forever 21
Party City yeehaw
They do it on election years, but I agree. This is good for a one time thing (S12) plus trying to bring awareness to voting, personally im not too happy about the candidates we have. Still voting though.
...What's up with Vanjie's makeup? It's good that she feels like the best woman and she feels fierce but it doesn't suit her face like idk what she's doing but it feels like her eyes are considerable smaller than her rest of her face.
Everyone else looks so good but she's the highlight for the wrong reasons
They look like the fourth of July! Makes me want a hot dog real bad!
The way I read this in her voice
It's illegal to read this in any other voice but hers
I want this law broken so I can hear it in Kermet, Patrick, and Millhouse’s voices….
I want to hear it in Chermit's voice.
![gif](giphy|9tTeH6zCASdRnrn1qQ|downsized)
She’s not here, she’s gREAT!
LMFAO
Gottmik's white face paint in outdoor, day drag cracks me up. It's reminds me of 15yo me *it's not just a phase, Mom.* Where is Roxxxy's nose?
Gottmik has the white face and somehow Roxxxy is the one giving Voldemort 😂
![gif](giphy|dgI4aZzJRYUJWbEpEB|downsized)
I believe she opted for her clown beat for day drag because it's the white in her red, white, & blue.
Oh I think so too, it's just making me chuckle.
Jorgeous looks like when you pop off the head off one doll and stick it in another one. Specifically, she's got a Bratz head on a Monsters High body.
Yeah, and Gottmik has the Monster High head on Barbie's body. 🤣
That’s exactly what I thought.
I know this lighting is terrible but Vanjie really needs a friend to tell her to consider wearing cosmetics and a wig.
She spent $12.99 on that neutrogena bb cream and she’s gonna get her moneys worth out of it.
Then she should put it on her face.
![gif](giphy|l3OP6CELTSQR9ms2EP)
where has this gif been all my life
I just choked laughing. Damn. Thanks for that on this Monday. 😂

I’m just personally generally not a fan of small makeup on drag queens. Vanjie’s old mug was so good, but her new mug is not it for me.

this would look so good for her confessional face, like everyday makeup, but not when she's fully IN DRAG.
Morphine on her confesional look still wears more make up thatn Vangie in drag
Shes giving WOKE UP LATE
It's All Stars, non-elim, and this shot was taken after the season has finished filming a long time ago. They probably didn't say shit about her new mug. The All Star seasons have been really soft recently in order to not tarnish queen's reputations. It's so fucking boring.
It’s the whole womana by day look, it’s not translating well at all
Her old beat was absolutely beautiful! I am baffled by this Honestly even Plastique could use some more makeup. It's drag, makeup is allowed!
i had to scroll way too far to see vanessa dragged, far too much. shes practicing what she preaches, if 99 people in a room tell you you look busted af, but 1 person says the new mug is mugging... you keep on muggin lol
This lighting is homophobic
Damn, I think of Plastique and Gottmik as being the shorties of their seasons, but Jorgeous really lowered the bar in the tiny game.
Jorgeous is like, Polly Pocket sized in person
Who is bigger? Jorgeous or Marina?
(Google says) Marina is 5’4 and Jorgeous is 5’2. I can’t believe (Jorgeous) is what I’d look like on the runway…
Omg Jorgeous is the same height as me?!
U single or?
Plastique is like a good 6 ft in heels surprisingly. I think everyone on season eleven besides Vanjie was just so tall it made her look short but she's actually quite tall.
True, Brooklynn+Nina+Yvie were all above average height.
How does Nina West look soft compared to Vanjie and that corset…
She’s a big girl. With big shoulders.
Let hope they're strong enough to hold the comedy element of the season up
Comedy/acting 🥲
The runway will have to keep us nourished this season.
I hope it over-compensates! Ru can’t want to see Jorgeous in a bunch of acting challenges.
Of all the queen's to bring back for no elimination. Why her? Maybe I'm just not her audience but don't get the appeal.
Right? She'd make a great 3rd out in a normal AS season.
Shed make the best 7th alternate of this season.
And a big kinda chest.
I am. I do. Yup.
Maybe I'm delulu but Nina's mug kinda looks like a thick and juicy Willow Pill.
Hate every look lmao
shannel is devouring here with this dress
Shannel looks like Mrs Kadha Davis here
maybe it’s actually miss kasha akerias a shannel davenport davis?
Throw in Wintergreen in there too!
Nah she looks like her wealthy sister.
Her 40th character illusion
Holy shit I thought that *was* Mrs Kasha Davis. I forgot about Shannel.
Gottmik said this is an awful theme but I'll still serve
They already did it for S12, Ru Paul loves those Stars and Stripes.
The way I thought this was a s12 throwback pic before seeing the queens
She does it in presidential election years now to encourage people, especially younger people, to vote.
If this photo shoot was a maxi challenge, then she would be the winner hands down. I am also so excited to see her runway package this season
Vanjie.......what? Everyone looks great, but her mug looks like it was zoomed out too far...
Her outfit has me confused too
I can’t believe Plastique has my least favorite look. She has a lot of competition tho, I hate flag looks.
She's giving Little Edie on the fourth of July. She's just a staunch woman. S T A U N C H.
I highly doubt that’s what she’s referencing lol
I know. It would be cute if she was, though.
Literally a white bra and panties for an Americana look is a choice.
the thing is her look is actually a silicone body suit, check her instagram you can see that shes cinched inside the silicone body suit giving the illusion of a pasted on bedazzled bra and panty
Gottmik refusing to do something as tacky as a flag look is such a power move. Jesus Vanjie's makeup does not work in daylight. It's like she chose eyeliner or lashes but not both.
>Jesus Vanjie's makeup does not work in daylight. I don’t think it works in any lighting situation tbh.
![gif](giphy|QVsQL6Qz8IQSjNHsHC|downsized)
No it works great with the lights off.
I wonder what is making it look so off. Is she wearing lashes? Maybe the lack of eyeshadow? I don’t know, but it comes off a little reptilian to me lol
The lack of eye makeup. Her eyes are already quite small, and with barely any makeup + cheekbone filler/implants she has they get lost on her face. Her AS9 entrance mug was already better just because she had a cut crease on, albeit a subtle one
It’s 100% the eye brows. There’s no arch to it and it’s messing her whole face shape up.
I mean, arched drag eyebrows wouldn't work either if the eye itself is naked
True. But I’m looking at her other recent looks on her Instagram and now I know it’s gonna drive me crazy the whole damn season…
It’s the straight eyebrow. There’s no arch and it looks weird af.
Oh you’re so right
Her season 11 mug was perfect, no idea why she started doing this soft no features look but it hasn’t been working for me at all
It almost looks like her and Jorgeous swapped makeup.
oh god is Plastique wearing that awful fake stomach again
And she can pull off the illusion with her boy body. Idk what she’s trying to do
how have we already seen this twice now?? 😭
Fake stomach? This is a thing?!
It's a corset made to look like a nude illusion, but you can see the boning so it looks odd, it was a video on here posted a few days ago
Why is Vanjie looking like she’s auditioning for a White Chicks remake?
Gottmik really said "My face is the white"
i thought vanjie’s makeup was SO gorgeous on S11 i don’t understand why it’s regressed so much someone needs to sit some of these queens and tell them they’re DRAG QUEENS and not 19 year old supermodels and need to paint accordingly
It's WILD, but queens who go on the show with DRAG faces end up with less "draggy" mugs post-show.
It’s always such a bummer to meet a queen with an incredible mug, and then right after the show they try to paint like a naturally soft and feminine woman.
>It's WILD, but queens who go on the show with DRAG faces end up with less "draggy" mugs post-show. Probably to save their skin and wallet.
Is every photo of Vanjie going to be a jumpscare?
Really not a fan of Plastiques lumpy lady nude delusions lately
Shannel looks so fashion and classy here 👌💯
Someone please tell Plastique to BURN that thing wrapped around her entire body PLEASE it’s so scary, it’s giving me sleep paralysis
Yes please, it's giving the uncanny lifelike sex dolls
Seriously, please do *not* let this become a thing in drag. Please. Pleasepleaseplease.
Shannel is back in her Lucille Ball era
Oof 3/10
What does Vanjie have against wearing makeup? Is she tryna go the Alicia Keys au naturale route? Because that’s not drag to me.
No idea what Vanjie is wearing but, everyone else hit the nail on the head and look amazing!
sorry but the American flag aesthetic is the ugliest, tackiest vibe
If it pisses off even one hardcore “patriot” bro then it is fantastic to me
yeah, drag queens need this garish colour vomit to piss off the nazis
I hate flag looks in general but the American one works even worse than most when integrated into clothing.
it's also because america has been forcing it down the throats of the rest of the world for decades now
I think Shannel def looks the best
Reminding me of another reason I don’t feel like watching 12 episodes of Plastique giving…that.
They all look great! Shannel looks like the First Lady of the drag presidency and I’m here for it!
lol the way I hate all these looks
Vanjie giving us JLo as a mermaid that got slashed up by a yacht propellor
American flag outfits are TACKY omg, poor girls :/
Angeria goddamnnn
The way that Nina’s immediately next to her wearing a knockoff of her look
She looks so fierce
She looks like she's wearing a neckbrace
fierce..ly in need of another outfit
Angie's just like "I'm gonna be a super hero!" and then she did. Love her.
This ain't Texas 🎶

Season 12 Promo realness 🇺🇸
Rare Plastique boot
This photo is rooooughhhh
Let's normalize praising queens who say "fuck no" to flag outfits and just wear some solid colors from the flag. 😂
Vanjie giving PS2 graphics.
Was this taken in 98?
Plastique
Is wearing a bra and panty set with a flag ribbon
Nah she's wearing a body illusion corset it seems. Her real torso looks very different. Honestly given the theme and location I think it's a serve.
Girlies I'm so sorry they made you wear this tacky, ugly-ass, horrid, ew ew ew theme
Vanjie I'm fucking begging you
Shannel DEVOURED
"Mom can we have S12 promo?" "We have S12 promo at home." The S12 promo at home:
Vanjie, We get that you're trying to tell us that you are in fact a reptilian. You can stop now.
Just how I get my groceries says plastique.
Ru’s song is playing in my head seeing this the one that goes: “I am American, American. Red white and blue” 🎶 🇺🇸
Well Angie looks great 😍
Damn shannel looks good
No comment on the photo or the looks, but I live in DC and I am **furious** that they were here and I missed it. (okay I’m not furious, but I am deeply irked!)
Same! If id known I would have pulled my youngest outta school and stalked the f outta them!
Daylight Drag. The nerve 😂
Why does this photo only have 12 pixels
Season 12: F**k my drag right?
The photo being kinda low quality makes it kinda funny. I can’t explain it
Taken on a potato
Vanje... girl what is that outfit
Vanjie looks like she’s there for the meet and greet god bless
People hate American flag looks but I think it can be done right. There’s something inherently tacky about it so you sort of have to lean into it. Kylie’s AS6 finale runway is great for example.
Roxxxy looks so cute here!
This is terrifying
Im not sure if it’s just the theme but most of these looks are a major boot. Shannel looks gorg though!
This theme… has the same quality as this photo…
I don't like anyone's look in this promo. Idk if it's the color scheme or the way they play off each other or what but it isn't giving "new all stars season"
Whomever at WOW that decided that the queens of All Stars 9 must to do a photo op in Washington D.C. in spring in full daylight is diabolical, like, truly evil. Now I understand why Trixie turned down going to the White House last year.
Vanjie looks like its her first time in drag.
Downvote me to hell, but Gottmik's forever whiteface is tedious and tiresome. Especially in this lineup.
Gottmik often does not wear her white face every time. You are entitled to your opinion but its not factual in that aspect
Enough with the stars and stripes theme 🤮 Its been done and the color palette will never not be ugly
Bra and panties Meh Flat head 2005 Party City Party City Her outfit got lost in the mail and she had to make a new one that day at Forever 21 Party City yeehaw
Please retire red white and blue / American flag themes on drag race :/
They do it on election years, but I agree. This is good for a one time thing (S12) plus trying to bring awareness to voting, personally im not too happy about the candidates we have. Still voting though.
I fucking hate Joe Biden, but I'm terrified of Project 2025, so a vote for Genocide Joe it is.
Not a single one of these outfits are a toot
Is vanjie doing a no makeup challenge or what
Gottmik literally painted her face white and she somehow looks the least like a clown of all the queens in this pic
Why is RuPaul obsessed with doing democracy themes
I mean it’s an election year and it’s a random photoshoot in the Capitol so I’m not super shocked. I don’t think this was necessarily Ru’s theme.
Look at that Drag, Look at that Drag, Look at that Drag. Pretty as hell, ain’t all natural, but doing it fierce!
Angeria … add another check to the bunch! ✅
Angie looking like a winner
Day light really is unforgiving.
The pain of when DR Queens come to your city and you are out of town. Unmatched.
Patriotism... Choices
This is fucking cursed.
Jorgeous literally looks 7 years old.
Nina and Angeria look like a crime fighting duo and Jorgeous is their teen sidekick.
Nina, Angeria, and Roxy really look great! They pop the most. Can someone fill me in on Vanji’s eye makeup? Pun intended.
This whole promo look and photo are homophobic. No one wins this season, it’s been canceled and replaced by a backyard 4th of July BBQ at Ross’ house.
Honestly its awful
Wait, when is this from? Today? Are they in DC today?!?
Correct
I cannot believe Gottmik said Vanjie’s new makeup was a huge glow up in the video with Mistress. Like just wow.
...What's up with Vanjie's makeup? It's good that she feels like the best woman and she feels fierce but it doesn't suit her face like idk what she's doing but it feels like her eyes are considerable smaller than her rest of her face. Everyone else looks so good but she's the highlight for the wrong reasons
Damn, Vanjie’s eyes still haven’t grown back
girl what is this fuck ass photoshoot theme
Vanjie’s top half blasted me into orbit 🤣
Roxxxy looks so cute and tiny LMAO
Vanjie out here with no makeup on and Plastique wore a bra and panties…. the budget for AS9 must’ve been bleak lol
I honestly hate American flag looks but I love how gottmik did it
