RuPaul’s Drag Race has undergone many changes: New casts, new judges panels, new networks, new episodes lengths.But one thing we can always rely on?
Our steady rock in uncertain times? Why, it’s the Pit Crew, those grinning, underwear-clad gents who are always willing to give the queens a helping hand. (And, yeah, we’re pretty sure the queens wouldn’t mind giving them a hand, too, if you know what we mean.)Of course, the Pit Crew roster does change every once in a while, and we’ll never complain about meeting someone new to pine after.
But, in all this time, Drag Race has yet to gift us with a truly thicc crew member. Aren’t we overdue for some body diversity?Content creator Elliott Norris sure thinks so!
