“RuPaul gagged us”: Why Drag Race fans are shocked over latest episode
The results of the Drag Race season 16 semi-final have left fans gooped and gagged. Spoilers ahead On the latest episode of the drag competition series, the final four queens – Sapphira Cristál, Nymphia Wind, Plane Jane and Q – were asked to dig deep and write their own memoirs. “For your final maxi-challenge, I want you to put pen to paper and write stories about your life,” Ru explained. “Then you need to come up with a catchy title for your book.
Next, you’ll pose the house down for a cover shoot with celebrity photographer Albert Sanchez.” Toward the end of her statement, Ru revealed to the queens that they would be interviewed by Fire Island star and comedian Matt Rogers about their books.
With their rules set, the ladies wasted no time getting to work on creating dragtastic and riveting memoirs. While Sapphira, Q and Plane seemed to develop solid ideas for their books, Nymphia struggled with writing her story. ‘I’ve had a hard time writing lyrics and jokes, but this is writing.
I don’t necessarily have to be funny; I just need a good story,” she said in a confessional. With their books finished and covers shot, the queens met separately with Rogers to discuss their time in the competition and their journeys into the drag sphere.
