A quiet personality is still a personality. I hate when people say certain queens don't have personalities just because they don't look like hysterical chickens yelling at each other.
Plastique was one of the few I was actually genuinely interested in hearing in this series
Arctic Monkey omg exactly!
Precisely fuk Rajah
hysterical chickens lollllll
very true
THANK YOU !!!!! the comment I was looking for.
John/Jenna Sequa didn't even mention Rajah yet you had to insult her. Don't be rude to ANY queen you watch on television while you sit at home.
Some of y'all never had to learn a second language and it shows
Thank you finally someone that points that out!! My native language is Spanish but I'm fluent in English and Korean, I don't have a thick accent but when I'm alone or comfortable with someone and I want to speak other languages I sound like Sofia Vergara 🙄 I'm not going to enunciate is a lot of work!
IKR?? For some people it’s a survival thing ..
So true!
Yeah like I dropped my Spanish for a year when I was barely learning how to talk I actually went mute because i didn’t know any other language. I learned both languages English and Spanish at the same time at 4. I now lost my accent and am losing Spanish rn and it’s really horrible seeing my family disappointed in my lack of Spanish.
True in so many levels
boy Plastique in a white shirt a bit unbuttoned is my new kink, too cute
Oof
Same sis.
HE'S MINE ASHDIUAWHDIUHASIDIAWD
Yeah he is hot
Ifkr
We need more asian queens on rupaul, wish plastique a long and prosperous career
Beem B the Asian girls usually don’t last that long sadly. Plastique is a real sweetheart. Seems like such a lovely person wish she could have stayed around longer
batgurrl Kim? Manila? RAJA?
@@natalie-tj8zm people for some reason always forget that Raja is asian...
There are SO many asian queens I hear about, find online, or know in my community. I'm surprised we don't see them more!
And don't forget the LEGENDS, the ICONS, *Jujubee* and *Ongina* !
when she says the asian accent isn’t my real voice she isn’t lying i change my accent around white ppl and on the phone all the time ever heard of code switching?
I wonder why Michelle wouldn’t understand?
*is my real voice
Same. When I moved to the UK at the age of 14, I had put on an American accent (even though I have no american blood) just so no one can make fun of me. My Filipino accent is only for family. Unfortunately, I was a teenager full of insecurities of being made inferior. I don't regret my choice but I feel ashamed not celebrating it.
Supr Eme, what the fuck are you talking about
@Supr Eme Lol so you're saying they're lying about 'code-switching'? Regardless of what you call it, as someone who can speak more than 3 languages, I definitely switch up my accents depending on who I'm speaking to. You are not getting it because you're thinking just about one language - English. It's not about immitating the accent of the person you're speaking to but switching between your own accent and the generally accepted/standard accent in the language you are speaking. For example, when I'm speaking to a Russian in English I'm not gonna put on a Russian accent because that's just rude, but when I'm speaking Russian to them I'll try to sound more Russian as I'm not a native speaker.
But at least she proved she's not just a one dimensional instagram influencer queen... versatility the house down
Versatility???? Not on the runway with the same silhouette /corset & stoned tights every single week 💀💀💀💀💀
did she tho?
@@peach-ls5uk Pretty sure she did. She didn't flop in the snatch game..she should count for something.
She aced the design challenge, and she is known to be the ''sow queen'' so she can sow the house down. Also, a perfect example of one trick pony insta-drag is Ariel Versace. Who did REALLY while Plas was in the top like..4 times, won once, won mini challenge then eliminated
I don't get why people say she is boring... Why is she boring? She is just 21 kid trying to prove something to the grown ups like.. She'll have all time in the world to improve and show who she really is. I think she is adorable
@@mariafeodorovna4487 right???? like????
Plastique is such a sweetie-pie! I want only the best things in life for her!
She is a Venus
CAST PLASTIQUE FOR AS6 CUZ SHE NEEDS TIME TO MARINATE. SHEA COULEÉ READY TO DOMINATE AS5!!
she's gonna be on as5
Nahh... star yeah... All stars nope!
Plastique will be on AS5, so she has to be sacrificed so Shea can get what's rightfully hers.

The whole accent thing is making me uncomfortable. You can tell Plastique tries to Americanize her voice and sometimes her real accent does peek through. You can hear it in this interview. Like, leave her alone, Michelle. They really did an injustice to Plastique with this whole pathological liar storyline/edit/whatever you wanna call it.
I agree! I understand it was confusing for people there, and I think distrust is exasperated by competition pressure. I actively worked on Americanizing my English and people sometimes seem to question that a grew up in France speaking French primerly (to be fair, I was always bilingual.) I think the bottom line is she very literally spent half her life with one language and half with another, so any variation in her accent is "her voice." She chooses to mostly use her American voice when speaking English cause that's how she wants to sound and to avoid being made fun of. My guess is she likes the challenge of mastering that accent as well. We're born screaming and our voices are drag, too! Michelle probably intends to be supportive here, I think she just doesn't quite grasp the nuances of being bilingual. Our voices are not as strictly set in stone as people may think.
Jorge Flores i think it was more for clarity’s sake. The liar storyline for her pissed me off so much 😡
Yeah I think in this they wanted to make it clear with an actual explanation. Still the pathological liar shtick went too far, and idk why she’s ok with being portrayed that way.
No not true. She comes off as a liar. She just told another one in this interview...quote 'I've been trying out many years'.. 😂 As Michele corrects her and says 'Not true cause you're just 21, the minimum age you could try out'... Get real!
Peter Pan she says “I’ve been waiting for it for many years” she literally also says that she started drag because of this show and I’m pretty sure drag takes years to develop. She meant it as she’s been working towards this for years and Michelle saying not many years is playing at her age cuz she’s young, but there are also other queens who have been trying way longer than she has. Think you twisted her words a bit
Michelle says you can't hear any accent in Plastique's English, but I would argue that you hear the Vietnamese tinge all the time in the way she speaks, and it's a part of who she is. As someone who lives in a foreign language abroad, I sympathize with her and understand the struggle of how much native language accent is going to come through at any given moment or on any given day.
Yeah, Michelle must be deaf to say she has no accent. She has a very distinguishable Vietnamese accent. Obviously her English is very good and I have no problems understanding her, but there is DEFINITELY an accent.
I'm glad she got a chance to talk about the whole pop culture debacle. People jumped down her throat so quickly when she said that on the show, but I don't think they understand what it's like to move to a country where you barely speak the language and have very little exposure to the culture let alone pop culture.
Taylor E But she knew New York immediately - a far more obscure pop culture fixture than Mariah and let alone Beyoncé.
@@dmitriagnes New York is more recent than Mariah, and as someone who's only 21 I don't think she has been through Mariah's golden era. It makes sense that someone who's only like 10 is gonna know more about some obscure RUclips singer than Michael Jackson even though he's the King of Pop. Plus if you take into account of when she started learning English and really getting into western pop culture it's a no brainer that she's more familiar with things in the 2010s.
I guess what I’m saying is everyone’s situation is different, she’s still YOUUUUNNNGGG, she’s had her own struggles, so we should all just try to be a little more understanding/less cynical as a fandom.
Okay, but who are you to question her experience? Did you live her life? While you may have emigrated from a non-English speaking country, that doesn't mean your experience was the same as Plastique's. It's not difficult to believe an immigrant with no knowledge of English wasn't aware of older North American pop culture. It's also not difficult to believe she would be aware of newer pop culture, because that's what she was experiencing while here. Knowing New York and not knowing Mariah isn't illogical or conflicting information.
Very true... I also don't understand why people assume that everyone should know every celebrity from America. People even argue that every country knows them... even people who are living in Asia because of TV.
To be honest, I only know Beyonce about 4 songs by Beyonce. Am Not a hater nor a fan, but that just proves not everyone is actually interested in getting to hear her music. I only know 4 or 5 songs of Mariah Carey because they've been played too much on contests and radios... And would you believe I only know 1 song from cher and 2 songs from Madonna?
Thsse people ARE BIG but doesn't mean everyone knows and should know them *^*
I wish she'd have gone further, was rooting for her👌🏻 Her drag is so beautiful, I hope she grows and maybe we'll see her on all stars
Craig Barnes she's not out yet
@@kyliegames5058 what do you mean? She just got eliminated

Kylie Games this is watcha packing?! Michelle interviews the eliminated queens
@@Pepperthecory I'm not following here... what do you mean by she's not out?
Michelle is a gift. Her drag and pop culture knowledge is so vast, anyone would be lucky to spend time with her picking her brain.
She was there when it all happened lol :D
For someone who has learned a lot of culture, she should rally respect Plastique as an ESL and not discredit her difficulties with her accent
I would like a return
Yea she said ''you don't even have an accent'' like it's a compliment and everyone should speak like americans ughh
I lost a bit of respect for michelle when she preached about asian accent and asian pride to Plastique, an Asian person. Like sis, you don’t know the struggles of ESL people when it comes to dealing with their accent and she has no right to say what is Plastique’s real accent.
This whole accent thing is so true because I’m a scouser but when I go home by Zimbabwean accent really comes out. You just can’t help it 🤷🏽♀️ so it’s not a reach that she falls in and out of her Vietnamese accent
You can literally hear it when she's speaking here too. Like how she says "bye" and any word with a "th" sound in it.
I too am an immigrant...Scotland to Australia , and I understand completely the slipping in and out of accent depending on where I am. I'm fully Billy Connolly around family and more a nasal Aussie around friends but the Scottish is my default. It happens when you get bullied for your accent as a kid in a new country. Only those that have lived this way understand it.
Haaahaa my accent is an amalgamation of like 4 accents now. At any given moment I sound different
Linda M yea a lot of people with accents do this, I don’t know why the girls were so taken aback by it.
@@GorginaGORG EXACTLY, im trinidadian and i speak differently when i am around other natives than i would when im with americans, i do it so that people wont be like "what did you say" " i dont understand"
When she was on stage and she said that that's how she does sound I believed her because I felt like her perfect lack of accent WAS her accent and an affect that she was putting on. It was nice to hear her clarify.
Angie Alzalde 100000%
Dear plastique and every other imigrant ever that moves here at age ten,
The struggles you go through in terms on acclimating and trying to catch up with the culture will never be understood by anyone. The moment you finish explaining yourself to whomever,you will feel foolish for even thinking anyone who is not you can ever truly get you. Accepting that fact and not making excuses for how you’ve tried to adapt and who you’ve become in that process will be you’re greatest strength :)
Beautiful words.
Thank you
I'm really upset with how rude Michelle was to Plastique and the sad part is, due to her upbringing (which she discussed on the show) she didn't talk back or anything she just agreed with everything. I was raised exactly like Plastique except I'm African American. When someone older than you says something you don't necessarily agree with, you just respect their opinion and validate it. Plastique WAS waiting many years to be on the show Michelle. Just because she was only of age to be on at 21 doesn't mean she wasn't wanting it before then.
Also, why were you grilling her on the whole "did you have a TV" issue? And why did you call her out on how her name could be spelled wrong?
Idk if Michelle was having a bad day or just doesn't like Plastique but this REALLY turned me off from her and no I don't really like her for how she was treating Plastique Tiara.
Agree
You don’t have to respect people’s opinions. Like really
They’re treating plastique like a criminal who needs investigating smh
She was very rude. Not a good interviewer but he handle it well.
@@thegayestgoth There is a difference between being polite and respecting someone. The least you can do is be kind and polite.
she had achieve so much attention and love and support.. i think she don't need the crown... she'll be good......
And we don't need her again in tv... it's so easy to point out a pathological liar!
@@mrloverandf9249 lol calm down ra'jah
@@mrloverandf9249 lmfao stfu you child. Tu madre estupido
@@mrloverandf9249 you a reason why this fan base is toxic. How about YOU eat shit. Bye sis
MRLOVER ANDF cálmate pendeja, it’s only a tv show and it’s not that deep lmao 🤣
Michelle really would have done well to educate herself a bit before doing this interview...she makes a lot of assumptions about Plastique's childhood and really doesn't seem to understand at all the nuances around accent-shifting etc. I feel bad for Plastique in this and I kind of worry when queens feel like they have to nod along with Ru and Michelle's "wisdoms." Hope Plastique will move forward with her own motivations and sense of self, and not worry too much about how preoccupied RPDR was with their insensitive storylines around her experiences as an immigrant...
English is my second language and I can relate. Whenever I'm tired or stressed my Spanish comes back with a vengeance.
Michelle is being super condescending & judgmental but plastique is handling it well. Wish you more success in the future. Much 💗
I was wondering if I'm the only one that felt that way! I took it as she continues and continues to tell plastique that she is wrong in everything.
Midnight Cat thank god someone said it!
Why do I get the feeling that Michelle doesn’t like plastique?? Like she was being borderline rude to her the whole interview:(
True
no she was not:) she was teaching him life lessons. loved this interview
She came off a little aggressive yeah
It was the awkward "yes gawds and yes mamas" where Michelle got turned off I think
@@BilalEllis agreed. I thnk that she wanted more depth in the interview rather than the ridiculousness she started off with.
Michelle i love you but for the love of god stop hammering on the accent thing!!! It sounds so ignorant. Literally every immigrant child feels the pressure to assimilate and make their natural accent disappear. It's not cause they become good at it that that means it becomes their "real" accent, it's just the one they think comes through better when being used in public instances or around people of a culture different from their own (like, let's say, in a television show full of non-vietnamese people).
Seriously it's not a hard thing to understand, stop trying to "call out" Plastique on it as though she lied. She didn't, that's how she talks and y'all sound ignorant about something serious (the immigrant experience) and pressed about something dumb (what someone says is their real accent) at the same time. It ain't cute
Rodrigo Borges see the comment I made . I agree 100%
She’s disingenuous when she claims her accent is the exaggerated Vietnamese accent when her real accent is the one she has in the interview.
People who haven’t lived through that experience are the ones who are trying so hard to disprove her story. Why can’t people understand that not everyone’s lives are the same, just because you talk a certain way or you’ve had certain life experiences does not mean everyone in the world is the same. That’s why people love Plastique because she has a story that’s unique to her but is relatable to sooooo many people, specifically immigrant kids.
@@MaxxyRainbowESC Sounds like you’re doing what you’re accusing others of doing.
Amen to that
Can’t disagree enough with Michelle. Sounding close to a native speaker is ever language learners goal!
Daniel Calvert see the comment I made. I agree 100%
she stops herelf because of racism she went through, is not just learning
My goal is getting a papi like you lol
YES - especially here where I am from - due to my native language I have a ‘farmer’s’ accent when I speak English and I am trying SO hard to learn it off.🙄
Ink BlottedSoul an I ask where you are from originally? I’m from “farmer country” (Devon) in Britain and I’ve honestly never experienced a foreign accent making English sound like that accent! I’m not saying you’re lying, I’ve just never experienced it :) but as a person ending up with an accent that doesn’t fit in Devon because my parents are from cities with very different accents and ending up with a “posh” accent it was weird enough for me.
michelle doesnt know what shes talking about in regards to immigrants not loving themselves because they want to have no accent. It's more a conversation about the ability to properly communicate! As an asian american, people are still taken aback when they see me and hear me speak english with no discernable accent, it's like they expect to have trouble understanding me lol
“Sesame Street should’ve been” 🤣Michelle slide that right in there. Subtle but still had a punch. I’m crying😭
i dont get the shade
Mna Iotb neither
Mna Iotb they teach you basic phonics on sesame street
Michelle showed her age on that one. Plastique was born in the same year as me, we didn't really have sesame street airing much when I was 10. Elmo's World, if anything. But Plastique would've been seeing Disney movies and shows like Recess and Filmore and
*She represents Vietnam so well. Proud of you, Plastique!*
Here's my issue:
We've seen many queens on the show over the years who are, for example, from Puerto Rico, with their native language being Spanish. Some had heavy accents, and I remember several people on the show who sometimes played up a kind of "energetic/crazy/spicy Latina" character. I'm thinking of Yara Sofia, Kenya Michaels, Jessica Wild, Alexis Mateo and Cynthia Lee Fontaine here. While I remember for example Yara Sofia and CLF being criticized by the judges at some point for bringing the same wacky character too many times, overall, I got the impression it was widely accepted for these queens to embrace their strong accent and exaggerate certain characteristics/embrace stereotypes sometimes for comedic purposes. And sure, you could argue it's totally fine since they are in fact Puerto Rican and maybe that's their drag persona or how they choose to represent themselves.
I'm not saying I necessarily agree with that, but I find it disturbing that the show seems to be playing by different rules for different people in this regard. Why is Plastique so heavily criticized for something I think queens of other ethnicities have been doing all along on the show and not been called out on (to my knowledge)? If CLF can play a (dreadful) Sofia Vergara on snatch game with her own native Spanish accent without starting a massive debate, why is the show creating so much conversation around Plastique playing a Vietnamese character and using her own native accent, as well as showcasing the total disdain of her co-competitors in this regard? Just because Plastique CAN have good English pronounciation doesn't make her less Vietnamese. I feel like they need to make up their minds on the show on this issue and not pick and choose by ethnicity which stereotype they consider "acceptable" and which are apparently "unacceptable".
There have also been many, many times that other queens were praised for playing up black or white stereotypes. The judges didn’t call out Silky for bringing fried chicken into her scene or Nina for doing an exaggerated southern accent. It’s unfair that Plastique is held to a higher standard. And it was really uncomfortable to watch Michelle, as a white woman, lecture Plastique about Asian pride.
Yes, thank you @@khloeknievel3874 ! This is *exactly* what I mean! (Although at least a Southern accent isn't racist) I was just giving one example that came to mind, but as you point out, there are many others. I also thought Michelle was being super inappropriate in telling Plastique how to feel about her experience... "But you should celebrate it!" or that "We want to keep it in the appreciation category" comment. Who's we?? Let Plastique have her own opinion and narrative.
THIS. THANK YOU. I noticed this too.
Absolutely. Having a heavy accent didn't do Mercedes and favours. If Plastique had done the whole thing in her native accent I'm sure she would have been criticised for that. At least being called a liar seems to have resulted in plastique feeling less need to emphasise her pronunciation and hopefully give less of a shit about what other people think.
So true. Just as how Manila Luzon was well accepted when she did her Filipino accent.
She's finally an official member of Haus of Edwards by not winning her season!
himawari lol
Haha 😂
But winning the hearts of the fans
But win the fact that she is the fan favorite
@@raemonmedina7870 YASSSS!!!! Very this!
This gives me kinda a weird vibe, like Michelle is testing plastique? Like girl she's already proved herself
same!!
Well at least she’s being clarified now by Michelle, otherwise the online fandom is going to bash her for being a “liar”. I thought that was good!
She always has this alpha dog mentality when talking to the girls sometimes. And she forgets she's a white bitch sometimes, I think.
@@robininoc708 But Michelle still saying "just be yourself" to the whole thing, she really can't understand why an immigrant kid would want to fit in as much as possible… Big oof.
I think they vibe on different frequencies. I didn't really saw a chemistry between them
The thing about accents is that when a person is constantly trying their best to speak a certain way so they don’t sound weird, when they get stressed, they’re not as focused on it and therefore they’re original accent can sometimes return and come out thicker than it otherwise could have if they were trying harder to conceal it.
Preach
You’re telling your story aren’t you
Im like that with my southern accent living in the midwest. If i’m upset or stressed it slips right back out. But i think people have a natural tendency to want to blend in with their surroundings
She's so young, beautiful, polished and talented. We will see great things from this queen in the future.
What i love about plastique is that despite her shortcomings, she is a humble soul and you can see that she is constantly trying to grow while in the competition. Her looks are also quite polished compared to some. Not a fan of hers at first, but she kinda grows on me.
Qhadaffi Siran 👍👍👍🌷
Asian: uses asian accent comedically
Judges: Don't overdo it gurl, don't be a stereotype!
Black girl: uses 'ghetto' accent and vernacular
Judges: Yas KWEEN! Werk, sistah. We eat it up every single time!
I feel most of the black contestants get more compliment and supports from Rapaul whatever his name his ..... it was unfair
Afrocentric, not ghetto.
people called manila racist for this too like huh 😭
lmao drag culture is highly influenced by black culture. drag is literally borrowing a large amount from black culture. without black culture drag woulnd be what is now. so stop trying to take away the shine of black people. if wanna fight for acceptance do this without putting down others.
on top of it black drag queens struggled for a very long time with limited opportunities, little media coverage so its not like black queen had it easy.
ghetto?…
Soooo sad that plastique had to leave
*crying softly in the dark corner of my room*😭
Uh, she used her nail salon voice 4 times, and wore the same black corset 3 times. She deserved to go.
True I was kinda bored by her runway because of the corset. Also silky read her for wear a corset every runway
Alberto Bustos silky wears the same thing too....
Ohh umm
@@spicyloona1939 vanjie too 😞
I get the whole hiding your accent thing. I have a very thick southern accent and have grown up almost all of my life in the south. But I have gotten picked on a lot for how thiccc it is. So I have worked to try and make myself not sound as southern and more well.. what i thought was normal.
Same here. Well not so much my accent as my name. I’d get made fun of and used to hate my last name but now I’m proud of it and my heratige
I am Finnish and for me at least personally pronounciating english properly is a task, and I have since childhood had pronounciation problems even in finnish language so trying to pronounciate english is sometimes difficult and by that I don't mean that im trying to hide my finnishness, rather that people can't understand what im saying, but I have learned to pronounciate properly, but sometimes if I get excited or somehow in a strong mood, I might "forget to pronounciate" and what I say again turns into this weird blur, and people have to ask me to repeat myself, so I understand if Plastique had the same happen "In the heat of the moment" as in she didn't even herself realize she lost her "act". Cause like I seriosly, kid you not am surprised sometimes when someone asks me to repeat myself, because they didn't understand what I said. I don't notice it myself, I just kinda figure out by the situation or ask the person, why I gotta repeat myself. I think it might be something to do with brain and linguistic parts of the brain not co-operating with one's mouth/voice producing organs.
I wanted to share this to open up an idea that this is also possible, not saying it's the case with Plastique, but possible.
As an African ESL, my accent slips in and out all the time when I get emotional or heated, or if I’m just not paying attention to maintain it
Same. I love it now though even if it only pops out when I'm around other southern or 'hood' types.
Sharon Tate Bulkying is a thing, you know
She has a great personality and lots of people love this delicious drag queen. 21!!! Very mature and ready to slay the next few years.
Omg Michelle is attacking her.
Ugh Michelle, don't tell a 21 year old what to focus on. She'll focus on whatever she wants, which she may not have worked out yet because she's, ya know, 21. When did Whatcha Packin' become 'let me sit down and preach at you'. Feels like watching someone in detention.
Y'all are really reaching. Yes Michelle was patronising but her point was that as you get older you learn to love yourself, you learn to forget about the little things and insecurities.
Lovely queen and lovely person. I wish her the best ❤
michelle's vibe was harsher than usual here. she didn't have the same warmth with plastique like she has with the other eliminated girls this season
1. I think natual speaking voice is probabky actually closer to the vietnamese accent from the show, maybe not as thick
2. That 2nd look...Yes.
Plastiiiiiique !! 🥰🥰🥰 love her so much
Plastique is handsome as a man and a beautiful woman, life isn’t fair 🧍♀️🧎♀️
cmon first season 11 queen to hit a million followers !!!!
iivan miss thing already has a ton before even being rumored to be on the show lmfao
@@MadonnasGrills she was at 200ish k before revealing the cast then 400k before the premiere. So its pretty amazing 600k in 9 episodes
Can’t wait to see her for All Stars
I'm truly conflicted whether to like or dislike this clip because I'm loving how Plastique gets to (sort of) clarify her story, but haaaaaating how Michelle cannot see how toxic she's being with her whitespaining. Plastique is an Asian class act, and her not talking over people to argue, not screaming to let everybody know she's hurt, not repeating the same thing over and over again to refute, does not make whatever bs thrown at her true nor valid.
I’m sorry but Michelle visage is being so belittling in this interview
These interviews isn't an 'omg tell me how amazing your looks are' for 15 minutes. Yes Michelle was condescending, but these interviews are an opportunity for her to actually have the conversations with the queens that she didn't get during filming - that means clarifying confusions, giving constructive criticisms and showing the fans that there's no beef between the queens and Michelle.
Yaaa it kinda felt like she was talking down to plastique
bitchh yass
She just don’t like the BS, fakes and excuses. Come as you are, be upfront, spend time knowing the business, knowing culture, love and embrace your own background and honor it. She was very complimenting of Plastique, very motivating and loving actually.
Michelle needs a new hearing aid cause I can obviously hear the vietnamese accent from Plastique
I loved Plastique a lot during the show cuz she showed how kind and nice she really is .. love you❤❤
Plastique talking about Paris By Night is the representation we NEED
something about her elimination felt extremely pre mature ,
Sharon Tate I think it’s just the feeling that she had way more talent and looks to show
Yes
Her new music video:
ruclips.net/video/JpgjPB2pUbw/видео.html
Producers be like "Okay so this week we will put Shuga and Vanjie in the bottom so Vanjie can show some lipsync-moves and even if she were to bomb, Shuga has been in the bottom 2 times already so she is out anyway. (Sees Shuga's amazing runway) F*ck, change of plans people!"
Yup, but I hope we can see her in a (not so soon) future all stars.
So sad to see her leave. But excited to see her walk into the werk room and see her become a Ru Girl
Michelle's behaviour towards accents and code switching is just bad.
Plastique Tiara, can’t get enough of you. You absolutely beautiful
Michelle digging away at the beginning, to see how truthful Plastique was being about pop culture and having a TV.. Then at the end saying about her doing beauty and fashion, as if that's all she's gonna be good at. I call shade!
More Asian queens on RPDR!
☝️
Michelle's face when Plastique said she would have worn a nude pump XD ahaha omg the judgement.
At least someone gave her some shade about the nude pumps and jewelled tights haha
Also idk why Michelle sometimes tries to shade queens/make them look dumb in these things just be nice they already lost lmao 😭
It is hard to believe she's so young, her level of talent and vision and taste is amazing!
Not to be hateful but Michelle has such a pretentious “I’m older so I know everything and you don’t” kinda attitude. It’s like she jumps at every opportunity to correct someone and show them why they’re wrong.
Ie. “WeLl YoUr NaMe WoUlD bE pLaStIc NoT pLaStIqUe”
Semen Demon She's a virgo lol
Was kinda thinkin the same. She was like that more so with Plastique. U can tell which queens she likes and the ones she could care less about based on how she talks to them. Plastique unfortunately being the latter.
Michelle is the worst
Julia Michelle can be harsh but she isn’t the worst. Michelle has earned her status; she’s a legend in drag
Dillan K yes she is, but she did come across as patronising in this interview. I’m almost the same age as Michelle, she doesn’t know everything about life! No one ever does.
Does Michelle STILL not understand that it IS Plastique's real voice??? She is not "laying it on thicker", she's letting loose of trying to control her accent. It's not hard to understand. Michelle is just being blatantly ignorant while thinking she knows better how to cope with having an accent people mock and ridicule constantly.
I agree. It kept driving me mad that Michelle repeatedly said it's actually not her voice. I have a deep southern accent, but constantly focus on controlling it, especially while teaching. Doing this doesn't change the fact that my real accent is quite thick. What's wrong with her???
@@tij_ana_ It's almost guaranteed that that's also the case with her. I hope no one's ever said things so heinous and disrespectful to you about your accent. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it, or wanting to cover it up.
@@Lisa-kf4iu She's racist and ignorant. Not the first time she's done stuff like this, but the season editing Plastique to be a "pathological liar" from the moment her accent is brought up to her being told multiple times that "that isn't your voice, honey" is absolutely disgraceful.
THANK YOU! Was just commenting on how ignorant and stupid this woman is.
Michelle: it’s like Linda came here and tapped you.
Plastique: ...what’s a Linda?
I feel you Plastique. I hid my British accent when I first move because people used to bully me in middle school.
What? British accent is sexy. ANyways, nobody reads the black girls when they do that ghetto girl "accent", which is a go-to character for almost every black girl on that show.
don't matter if you dind't won season 11, you are the queen of my heart ✨
"You didn't have a TV, so you were poor" lol. Americans are funny.. owning a TV is not a sign of wealth.
What are you talking about? It totally is, especially back in 1990s...
Growing up in Central America having a television was always a sign of wealth
I don't know where you're from but like in at least 90% of the world, a TV is an important sign of wealth and social status as much as a car is.
In some countries it is and in some it isn't. Many people don't own a tv just bc they don't watch it and prefer reading or doing other stuff. If a city has efficient public transport a rich guy can easily go to work by metro or bike and not need a car. What i mean is that she can't just generalize. Sometimes Michelle talks like a dumb bimbo who doesn't know anything outside of LA or wherever she's from.
@@LLLemi Lord you and so many other fans are dramatic. Yes Americans glorify certain capitalist material items but Michelle is just trying to get behind Plastique's exterior. Michelle has been in this show alone for close to ten years. She's spoken and connected with over 150 queens, I trust her to be a good judge of character of queens and I can tell she sees past Plastique's self-producing and facade. Now I'm not calling Plastique fake at all but it's very obvious that she has a case of the 'Valentina/Laganja/BenDeLa acting curse' where they're constantly putting on a character or in Plastique and Valentina's case in particular, seem to always be switched on and controlling what they say in front of the judges.
The kinds of countries you're talking about with 'efficient public transport' aren't exactly comparable to places like Vietnam, many Asian countries in general, South America, and Africa where I'm from. As much as Michelle might be generalising about a place which she doesn't know much about, you're acting as if people in Vietnam don't give two shits about the TV and respect reading and outdoor activities more than anything. I've been to Vietnam several times, and not that that qualifies me to make sweeping statements about the place but from what I could tell it's a lot like where I'm from. No people are not fighting tooth and nail every day to buy a tv and sit around watching tv, but a TV is a symbol of wealth, comfort, entertainment and pop culture like any other electrical luxury goods. Plastique literally reiterates that.... when she says that people in her neighbourhood would congregate in her house some days to watch TV. If that doesn't encompass the social prestige and status that a TV can bring, than I really don't know what does. Also Michelle is from New Jersey.
Dang Michelle.. We get it.. He's young... He's got a lot to do.
That's what I was saying all the time of the interview, I really hope that Plastique's future would be as good as her
(sorry for the misspellings but English ain't my first language)
She was, almost, always on the top and she was doing so good !♡ it breaks my heart to see her go, but i'm so freakin proud of her work and i will always support her in the future ♡ let's go queen !
*name drops Violet as young queen with strong aesthetic*
*Aquaria has left the chat*
#Dead
This is random but this is literal the most attractive face ever o-O whether as a girl or a boy I'm shaking
i cant imagine telling someone that they know what their real accent is and to not worry about their accent when they do not understand the experiences of ESL and growing up a minority with a thick accent. its easy to preach about asian pride when you aren't asian omg
Michelle already had royal blue in her mind before even asking Plastique lmao “say the right colour girl”
Michelle is incredibly overbearing and obnoxious in this interview.
Extremely sad seeing her go. God bless you girl and work that it queen. I saw you and you are so beautiful
As an Asian person it makes me uncomfortable to hear Michelle telling plastique what she has to do to embrace being Asian and feel good about that. Instead of acknowledging that experiencing racist comments about something like an accent must be difficult and she can’t imagine.
I feel like Michelle doesn't like Plastique very much. :(
I love Michele, but she being the critic of drag aesthetic will always make me roll my eyes. Seriously?
Um... y’all notice how plastique had little to no confessionals? Like, the wiggery? The robbery? The Tom foolery?
Shes so STUNNING
I started to watch this show because of you Plastique... you will be ok sweetie... love from Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 and Haiti 🇭🇹
He’s my ultimate crush. His face, personality, talent, and attitude is ❤️❤️❤️
Amazing talent. She's incredible. Also, I adore Michelle.
I was so pissed when Plastique got eliminated. She needs to be brought back!
Bella Mays true and armyyyy
i was looking forward to this interview and im literally in disbelief at how condescending and belittling michelle sounds. you can clearly tell she doesnt care about plastique and probably doesnt like her. everything sounds so insincere. she barely allowed plastique to talk, interrupting her every 2 words. she wasn't satisfied with any answer plastique gave because it didn't fit michelle's idea of her. its like she wanted plastique to say "yes i lied about everything". her weird irrational dislike for plastique was so clear here, im so disappointed. im sorry plastique, you deserve BETTER
He looks soo soo beautiful in drag look, no one can tell that he is a boy when he gets into drag look. Love love love him
8:52 - 9:00 This bit of conversation showcases how awkwardly I engage in conversations with men in clubs
Plastique es un encanto, tiene una excelente personalidad y sus outfits y maquillaje son espectaculares, él/ella es espectacular.
MICHELLE: You decided to do whatever you had to do to get the money........
Plastique : Gulp
Me: Oh the shade.
I am originally from the philippines. I moved to japan when i was 14. I am 27 now. I don’t know squat about the pop culture here. You know why? Because all those years i was here, learning a new language and the actual culture was more important than celebrities.
I honestly thought Vanjie should have gone home, Plastique outshined her in the lip synch. I was expecting so much more from Vanjie ,she just got a loud personality and that's it
John S I think if Vanjie got eliminated it would’ve caused a riot with stans so that’s why she’s always been safe until now, kinda sucks but I think they’re making sure to show that they’re trying to keep her on for as long as possible, plus the storyline with Brooklyn🤔
@@svby agreed
@@svby Literally not at all, Plastique reminds me of Valentina - immensely popular with fans who like fishy queens. Plastique's fans are not anywhere near as aggressive as Valentina's of course but she def has many more fans than Vanjie - literally look at Insta
YepItsThatGuy I meant Vanjie’s stans
I’m not gonna lie, if Vanjie went home on the first lip sync I would’ve stopped watching the show
I love his laugh. Cuteness!
educate the kids about code switch! yassss plastique
Sometimes I feel like Michelle cares more about the queens then ru does...( just my opinion )
I 100% agree, it irritates me to see all these fans saying that Michelle is hateful, bitter and judgemental towards Plastique. Like girl that's the point, Michelle sees through the bullshit, the acting, the self-producing and is eager to form an authentic connection with each and every queen, not have some smile-y fake interview giving only praise
She looks like a kpop star out of drag. She looks absolutely perfect.
루시 her new music video:
ruclips.net/video/JpgjPB2pUbw/видео.html
@@athelane um first of all I'm an asian person. Additionally I'm just referring a kpop idols because she reminds me of them not because asians=kpop stars. It is kind of like people saying someone is sexy as Ryan Gosling. Not because they are white just because they remind them not Ryan Gosling. I don't know why the race factor comes into had when I'm just giving out a compliment
He really look incredible doesn’t matter if he wears himself as he or she🥰
I am a little pissed at Michelle's comment about not needing to spend money on Drag Race and how that is Plastique's decision... like no... the bar is so ridiculously high these seasons that queens need to spend FORTUNES just to even have a shot at the crown.
She's the embodiment of the word perfection
Love ya plastique!!!!
She is so sweet and very kind with her sisters ♡
