Shantay, they stay… at VH1.
After the February announcement that “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” would move from VH1 to Showtime for its fifth season, producers revealed on Friday that the series will in fact remain on VH1 when it premieres on June 5. Both networks are owned by ViacomCBS.
The initial decision to move “All Stars” to Showtime caught some flack from fans displeased that they would need to subscribe to the pay cable network to see it. But in a press release, the decision to keep “All Stars” on VH1 was chalked up to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, which “resulted in various scheduling and programming adjustments.”
The release also officially revealed the cast of 10 previous contestants on “RuPaul’s Drag Race” who are returning to compete for the $100,000 top prize and a place in the “Drag Race Hall of Fame,” alongside previous winners Chad Michaels (Season 1), Alaska (Season...

It's hard to pinpoint exactly what has brought Lady Bunny the most fame.
The legendary drag queen, who created the non-defunct annual New York City drag festival Wigstock in the mid-80s, has been performing, DJing, releasing music and appearing in films and on TV shows like "RuPaul's Drag Race" and "RuPaul's Drag U" for nearly three decades.
Known for hilarious -- and filthy -- parody covers of tracks by pop stars like Katy Perry, Bunny released an uncharacteristically straight forward dance single, "Take Me Up High" (see the video above) in July and the track has already climbed to number 29 on the Billboard Dance Chart.
We caught up with Bunny to chat about her new song, her connection to the transgender community, how her life changed after 9/11 and more.

RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars - Are These Queens Your All-Stars? Update: Yes They Are!
Uh oh... Is there a leak in the RuPaul's Drag Race camp? Or a strategically placed (yet glamorous) red-herring?
While catching up on my Facebook newsfeed, I came across a post from a group called RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars Fans that featured a picture of all twelve contestants who will appear on the show. While there is a lot to get excited for, the official announcement was scheduled to be revealed tomorrow after the season finale of RuPaul's Drag U. So before I give you reasons why this "leak" is a tad bit suspicious, here are your "alleged" queens of RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars!

"RuPaul's Drag U" (Mon., 9 p.m. Et on Logo) returned for a third season of inspirational drag queen makeovers. The show brought back Jujubee, Manila Luzon and Latrice Royale -- former "RuPaul's Drag Race" contestants -- to work with RuPaul in helping this week's batch of women. The connecting factor for these first three women is that they are all recent divorcees dealing with those still raw emotions.
It turned out, that working with the drag queens to help them find their inner queens, and outer drag beauty, helped the women find some of their lost confidence as well. Appropriately, they got to strut their stuff to the classic female empowerment anthem, "I Will Survive."
RuPaul was even on hand with some words of advice for the women, telling one of them, "Having that anger is a way to hold onto the relationship. That is the one block standing in the way.

After giving fans a serious case of blue balls by withholding the winner of RuPaul's Drag Race until last night's reunion episode, fans were gagging on their excitement as the final three -- Sharon Needles, Phi Phi O'Hara and Chad Michaels -- gathered in NYC for last night's live reveal as the clock struck 10 p.m. And when all was said and done, RuPaul chose Sharon Needles as The Next Drag Superstar!
I caught up with Miss. Needles (one of the most inventive, exciting and original queens to ever compete) after her crowning to find out what it means to win, what she'll do with the money and how Jared Leto factors in to her master plan!

RuPaul's reality show only has four seasons under its overly bedazzled belt, but Logo announced Monday that it's launching an all-star edition, "All Stars: RuPaul's Drag Race," reports EW.
The network is calling the second spinoff for the series (the first was "RuPaul's Drag U") a "battle royal," pitting previous seasons' contestants against each other. Producers have 46 past contestants to consider for the show's slots -- but fans get a say over one of them: Online voting on the show's Facebook page will decide a returning contestant (come on, Jujubee and Nina Flowers!), so you betta vote.
The series will consist of six one-hour episodes, airing this fall on Logo.

Gay TV as we know it is dead.
Just as MTV pulled the plug on music programming in the '90s, the network's younger, swishier cousin, Logo, has decided to say goodbye to its original raison d'être: gay-focused television. One reaction has been to bemoan the news and call Logo a traitor for walking out on its community. But given the current state of Logo's programming, the decision just may be a blessing in disguise for the gay rights movement.
None of Logo's upcoming series include gay characters in "lead" roles, according to a press release announcing coming programming changes, first revealed by Queerty. Instead, the network has opted to green-light only female-friendly, gayish knock-offs of the reality shows Toddlers & Tiaras and Mob Wives, with show titles like Eden Wood's World and Wiseguys. Even RuPaul's Drag U is getting a revamp to reach a more mainstream audience. In other words,...

For some reason I get at least four emails each week from VH1 Press telling me all sorts of exciting news about the network that I haven't actually seen since I last watched Pop Up Video reruns while doing homework in 1998. It's rather inexplicable, not because I don't get a ton of pointless trade news to my Pajiba email but because I get this to my private email account. It is the only trade news I get to that email account. And I felt that eventually I needed to share with you. Because I'm a giver.
Some of this news is past due (i.e. advertising episodes that have since aired) but I know that it doesn't matter. Just because the train wreck isn't on the side of the road anymore doesn't mean the pictures aren't still astonishing.

I get many emails asking me to write more frequently about the small screen so I figured I should cave if a tv series really excites me (like Mad Men) but on one condition: it has to reference the movies (or feature a beloved movie actress) or involve awardage. I've highlighted movie-adjacent TV before like pre-fame TV roles or unexpected actress moments. So henceforth, I'll package it in series form. You know how we do here at Tfe. If something I happen to catch on television references the movies, I'll feature it on Saturday mornings to thank it for doing so.
Last week on Friday Night Lights Becky fell asleep watching Thelma & Louise and that is... well, I can only suspend so much disbelief and you just don't fall asleep watching that movie. It's awesome -- top ten of the 90s level awesome. But Becky is my least favorite character so whatever.

It's hot. I think it's hot everywhere for the moment and it's only going to get worse through the rest of the summer and the thought of that is distressing. And at least here in Maryland, and most likely in Miami when I get back there in August, it's super humid too. On one hand, my clothes are never wrinkled; on the other hand it's impossible to go anywhere that's more than a five minute walk without showing up sweaty and miserable. With that lovely mental image in mind, here's tonight's TV:
8:00 p.m.: "The Bachelorette" on ABC.
"Behind the Music: Usher" on VH1. Second season finale. Having heard some of his latest contributions to music, I feel like Usher took some kind of dare about whether or not he could turn various inane phrases into actual hit songs and he's winning in a big way. All the rest of us,...

What exactly was it about the first two seasons of RuPaul's Drag Race that made for such incredibly watchable television?
I think it was three things: (1) some very likable contestants who gave you a real feel for the genuine artistry of drag; (2) the fact that the contestants took the competition very seriously, and as a result, you cared what happened to them; and (3) the ever-fascinating RuPaul, who has the personality of a freight train.
At least two of those three things are back in a Drag Race spin-off reality series, RuPaul's Drag U, premiering Monday, July 19th on Logo at 9 Pm/8C.
The gimmick of Drag U is that each week three women who are unhappy with their lives are invited to attend "Drag U," where three Drag Race drag queen favorites will act as "professors," giving the women a "drag" make-over. At the end of each episode, RuPaul and...

Made in Brazil is reporting that Brazil is close to passing a law banning gay couples from adopting. "This new law aims to legally prohibit adoption by homosexual couples by stating that homosexual couples are not able to constitute a family, and that a child adopted by two homosexual parents is subject to embarrassment and harassment growing up." A poll of gay men and lesbians reveals that tennis is the most gay-friendly sport, with 65% saying it's the most welcoming to gay players and fans. I have to say I agree. There have been a few anti-gay bad apples, but overall tennis is a cut above. Now if only we could get a male player to come out.
