Who else got choked up when Jericks Dad said "water off a ducks back" 😢💗 I don't recall ever seeing such a wonderfully touching and genuine documentary or should I have said drag umentary. LOL
Jinx and Raja have always been my favorite, but Jinx has always felt like a friend. Always felt the most natural, the truest person. I hope the greatest of success for her entire career!
I was so honored to have my song played at the end of this documentary! I remember when it premiered at a movie theater in Seattle and we got to see the whole documentary on the big screen. I knew Jinkx about a year before they won drag race season 5, it was such a pleasure watching their performances, and how they grew and became more confident in their abilities. Thanks for posting this on RUclips so I can share it with my friends!!!
Thanks for posting! Jinkx is the best, and ironically her family was brought together by something that tears so many families apart. It's a tribute to their love. Overall I think this is a quite beautiful story of family, chosen or born into.
I LOVE that 20-50 years from now Jinxx and Benda will have iconic historical pictures on the wall in ALL the clubs next to Nirvana, Soundgarden etc laying down that incredible growth and magical entertaining grunge that makes Seattle so stellar!!! Yall bitches ROCK!!! Thank you for this drag doc!!
I ❤ that Jinkx is so young, but her drag & references are things that an older Queen would perform. She has been my favorite of all seasons and Jimbo is right there also. I would love to see a Jinkx & Jimbo crazy collaboration.
1:19:53 Jerick Hoffer's words about the impact of his achievement on his family are remarkable because it is not about being a Drag Queen; it is about his decision to do what he felt like doing, indeed. Everything that has a solid foundation has a positive comeback. My only wish to you, Jerick, please, don’t stick with weed. No matter how fun and relaxing it can be, the outcome is never the one expected. There are ways to manage mental particularities like OCD, Dyslexia, or ADHD. Emotional Intelligence is a great start. Bravo, you are a fine artist ❤
What a gift to get to know jinx this well. What we saw of her on drag race was really a miniscule part of her enormous Talent. There's also a sense of comfort in being reminded that to be Human and flawed is okay and can often create amazing things.
Documentary was quite raw in contrast to the “illusion” . Well done. Talent comes in different shapes and forms. I have always enjoyed drag impersonators, the Liza’s, Cher, Carol Channing…..old school. Went to a show back in 2013 and things had evolved to a different level. Was just too nasty for my taste. As a biological woman it amazes me how damn much goes into our effort to present (So to speak). I cannot tell you over the course of my adulthood how damn much $$$$ I have spent on hair, makeup, hosiery, lingerie, nails, clothes, earrings, shoes, purses…….but fashion became a chore, was freeing not to put on my face everyday. Watching this even I became exhausted bc drag is burdensome, it’s celebrity, fame , ridicule, quest to sustain a living (not to mention REAL relationships) it is never ending. Jinx is young, resilient, determined and is very honest about what goes on behind the scenes. I’d like to see another documentary on “the golden years” of retired queens. It’s my understanding that the original screen write for the TV Golden Girls was of gay men but network couldn’t make that fly in society back then. I still watch those reruns!
I'm just passing by to inform everyone who's watching this that as of 2024, this is HERA Hoffer, also known as Jinkx Monsoon, pronouns she/her in AND out of drag 💗💙🤍💗💙🤍
That freaking scene explaining jinx and nick's relationship like i want what they have together a friendship where nothing is off bounds. youve seen every part of this person. and the way nick is looking at her when she is talking??!!??!! fuck i rewatched that scene an embarrassingly amount of times
I've seen this documentary many times. I always catch little bits I missed the other times. I'm so happy for his success and his talents are so many (except he still can't sew LOL) Love you Jinkxie!
As gay elder, I have seen do many bad drag acts over the decades that I became totally dismissive. However, having seen Jinx online recently I am struck by the sheer intelligence and brilliance of this unique performer
FantasticFierceFlawless. I love the family dynamics...representation of 'modern family', trials/tribulations & Phoenix rising. Thank you for allowing me into your world but for a smidge of time. ¡Bes💋s!
The pressure seems insane.. Also, the brothers are so sweet.. I think the parents really need to do some hard time in therapy, and officially apologize to him.
Dear Herra. You are so talented and beautiful and beyond funny. I am so proud of your skill and personal accomplishments, your intellect and how you exude style vibrancy and embrace your inner strengths.
Everyone should be who they are. And be able to do what they want as a career, can make for a very happy person. Republicans need to learn this. Their self righteous behavior is such a turn off. Jinkx you are fabulous! Be true to yourself always.
I'm subscribed to Jinkx Monsoon on RUclips & I would like to Thanks Jinkx for bringing up The Wheel of Time on Prime. What a great series! Brooklyn NY time: 3:00pm
I'm from Vancouver that I grumbled and complained that the girls never did shows here. And while I was grumbling it appears I missed the most amazing drag race cast in history perform what must have absolutely fierce.
I am glad to hear that Jinkx relationship with her mother was good. Since I only heard of that from the Drag Race only. And I appreciate that her father, absent as he may have been, was a decent man. It is a bit jarring to see Jinkx being called he/him, when I am more familiar with them in the latter year when they start using they/them.
(for me) You're the best, talented, truely inspirating, original, rebelle and soooo comic , love u from Emily from Paris, France!!!! You're ours souls sisters! I I wich, one day, meet you in a Parisian Burlesque Show!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩😜
I'm so very happy for you detox that you're in a happy space and place I'm one of your biggest fans I love you keep doing what you're doing thank you.💜
How can you not root for Jinkx, a genuine, sweet, talented queen, a star!
The clips of Jinkx’ early life serves heavy John Waters vibes, but in Seattle not Baltimore. Also; her “Little Edie” is sooo spot on it’s scary!
DITTO❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jinkx has a real talent
💯👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
I hated how everyone else during her season keeps shading her and treating like shes some lowlife drag-wannabes
Who else got choked up when Jericks Dad said "water off a ducks back" 😢💗
I don't recall ever seeing such a wonderfully touching and genuine documentary or should I have said drag umentary. LOL
Hats off to dad for being so forthcoming about past failings. Hopefully the future is warmer.
He was a literal child the mother was a predator.
@@AppalachianRootsyou thinking like that makes you perverted.
Jinx and Raja have always been my favorite, but Jinx has always felt like a friend. Always felt the most natural, the truest person. I hope the greatest of success for her entire career!
I can't think of anything more perfect than Jinx passing the crown on to Bianca. Shear perfection.

I first met jinx from Rupaul dragg race . My wife and i followed him all the way to the end....she is. Awesome .whould love to meet her someday.

I second your motion!
She’s definitely an “old soul.” In another life she was dancing in wild abandon at Woodstock and then was discovered by John Waters.
What a talented performer. I enjoyed Jinkx on drag race and am so happy for all her success many more to come

Evertime i feel anxious or a bit depressed this is one of the documentaries i watch that makes me feel so much better!
Jinkx is so very kind& loving im so glad that they look out for their young niece & brothers as well ❤
Jinx you are my most favorite of all the shows
Thank you for being so wonderful
This is just brilliant. i didn't think I could love Jinx more, but I do!!

please take care of yourself...thank you for sharing...you are very kind...kindness can heal the world...arohamai!! all the way from aotearoa(nz)
Excellent documentary. I was already a big Jinkx Monsoon fan, but this increases my admiration even more. Great storytelling. Thank you.
what a beautiful artist & kind loving human being!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why am I crying??!😭 I'm overwhelmed with her kindness. Her heart is so blessed.
I love seeing families brought together by the art of drag!
love seeing benda and jinx’s friendship pre-dragrace
I feel like Jinkx’s dad wasn’t recalling a memory as much as. He was sending a message ❤
Love Jinx!! So creative talented and an amazing performer!
I've seen this documentary many times. I always catch little bits I missed the other times. I'm so happy for his success and his talents are so many (except he still can't sew LOL) Love you Jinkxie!
It was the;
“How much?”
“(Tee-hee) I have a dick.”
for me!
😂
I have a love and respect for my aunt that jinkx and her aunt have. Makes my heart so happy. There is nothing better!
As gay elder, I have seen do many bad drag acts over the decades that I became totally dismissive. However, having seen Jinx online recently I am struck by the sheer intelligence and brilliance of this unique performer
lol I learned the word "flaccid" from Death Becomes Her when I was a kid! Such a great movie 😍
Beautiful. Thank you for showing us your family and yourself. So heartwarming.
I've loved Jinxx since her 1st appearance on Drag Race. I love her even more watching this!
FantasticFierceFlawless. I love the family dynamics...representation of 'modern family', trials/tribulations & Phoenix rising. Thank you for allowing me into your world but for a smidge of time. ¡Bes💋s!
I love jinx so much I wish we could be friends and hang out. He’s so much fun and incredibly talented
It’s amazing to see a great person evolve…Plus, I’ve heard about her history of course…But, it’s prophetic seeing Jinkx’s mom and early self
I love this person, the entire person.❤
The pressure seems insane.. Also, the brothers are so sweet.. I think the parents really need to do some hard time in therapy, and officially apologize to him.
Jinx is the Queen of all queens!!
Jinkx is a force of nature, honestly one of my very favourites along with Katya and Tracie Motel. You got your looks from your mum, you look so alike!
Fantastic. Very proud of the stand up man that dad is.
I’m sooo glad this video appeared in my YT feed. Welcome to NYC Jinkx, you’re finally home!
👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Love you Jinksie!
Who made this film? It's brilliant. Absolutely lovely. Can't wait to go see her in August at the Orpheum in LA.
That was awesome !!! Thanks for sharing your story! So inspiring! And beautiful
Dear Herra.
You are so talented and beautiful and beyond funny.
I am so proud of your skill and personal accomplishments, your intellect and how you exude style vibrancy and embrace your inner strengths.
I wish everyone had such a loving support system.
Jinx is amazing to behold.
so blessed to see this here
LOVED LOVED LOVED IT.. THANK JINKX
This just flashed in my notifications. Iam so looking forward to watching this! ❤ u Jinx!
Everyone should be who they are. And be able to do what they want as a career, can make for a very happy person. Republicans need to learn this. Their self righteous behavior is such a turn off. Jinkx you are fabulous! Be true to yourself always.
Jinkx you are totally " AMAZING " ❤❤❤❤
Great documentary - the reality of a reality tv star

I love Jinkx Monsoon.

I love Jinkx he the most talented actor and singer he/she best all around performer !
I absolutely love her dedication. The most talented Queen in my humble opinion.
I'm from Vancouver that I grumbled and complained that the girls never did shows here. And while I was grumbling it appears I missed the most amazing drag race cast in history perform what must have absolutely fierce.
