‘Let the monsters eat themselves': ‘RuPaul's Drag Race' winner Ginger Minj spills the tea on her online haters and what the scepter really tastes like
After Ginger Minj won RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10, she couldn't stop herself from biting into her sparkly new scepter. Unfortunately, it didn't taste as good as it looked. "To be completely honest with you, it's like when you chew on tinfoil, you get those little zings through your teeth," she tells Gold Derby. "I also accidentally bit one of the rhinestones, so I was picking little glass shards out of my teeth for like an hour." Winning the competition still "hasn't really set in yet," explains the 39-year-old comedy queen from Orlando. "The viewing party was Friday night, and then the weekend was such a blur. I woke up this morning after finally sleeping, and looked over at the crown and scepter, and I was like, 'Oh, holy sh--, I won.' It feels so good, but it also feels so weird, because it's like, well, what's next?" More from Gold Derby Zae Frederich on his dramatic exit from 'Big Brother,' Jimmy's HOH win, and why he wasn't 'fanboying' over Rachel 'Big Brother 27' spoilers: Jimmy's HOH is a dumpster fire, and Rachel's mouth just added gasoline Ginger already has a tattoo to commemorate her Drag Race journey, and now she plans on properly finishing it. "I started during Season 7, and I've added to it every season," she states in our interview. "So, it's got the two flags, the seven, and then the two yellow stars for All Stars 2. I'm gonna put six stars on it for All Stars 6, and then I'm gonna put a crown and scepter around it." Fans long considered Ginger to be one of the best queens that had never won, but now that she's off that list, who does she hope prevails next? "I want Peppermint to have a crown so bad," she divulges about the Season 9 fan-fave. "She is such a star in and out of the Drag Race world, and one of my favorite people. So, I would just love to see her succeed. Jujubee [from Season 2] I think deserves one at this point — and again, just another one of my favorite people." Ginger "loved" this season's Tournament-style format, in which RuPaul Charles split up the 18 contestants into three different brackets. "I personally think it's so fresh. I grew up doing drag in the pageant world — that's where I learned everything. In order to compete for a national pageant, you have to compete and qualify at a prelim, and that's what this felt like with the brackets. They felt like preliminary pageants that led up to the big, final pageant." When she watched Bracket 2 play out on TV, what was her reaction to seeing Mistress Isabelle Brooks and Jorgeous lie, cheat, and steal in order to earn more points? "I knew that something had happened in Bracket 2, but all of those girls refused to talk about it with the rest of us," Ginger reveals. "They refused to give us the actual tea, so we found out with the rest of the world when it aired. All of us were like, 'Holy sh--. So shady.' Yeah, it's a competition. And to me, that means something different than playing mind games and trying to trick people out of what is theirs. It was good TV, but I don't know that I should be rooting for this or cheering this on." Speaking of Mistress, her "feud" with Ginger was completely "one-sided," the winner explains. "I didn't even realize it was happening! I could feel her poking me here and there, but it wasn't until it aired that I realized how much I actually got under her skin, which is so funny, because we actually get along outside of all this. We have great conversations and a great relationship, but in the actual competition, I really did affect her that way." As for her online haters, Ginger approaches them "the same way" she dealt with Mistress. "I'm so focused on what's in front of me, the love and positivity. It's kind of a one-sided fight with all of these people. Let the monsters eat themselves, and I'll just continue to do what I do, and do it to the best of my ability," she says. Addressing her longtime fans, Ginger declares, "This crown isn't just for me. This crown is for the people that have been with me from day one. I started this 10 years ago, and I may not have the biggest fan base, but I probably have the most loyal. I have grown and changed and learned so much in those 10 years, and I've been so open about everything that I've gone through, that I feel spiritually connected to this fan base. They're the ones that kept pushing me to be better, and it felt like the culmination of 10 years of hard work for this giant, extended family of mine." Jorgeous is poised to "take over the world," she predicts about her 24-year-old runner-up. "I love Jorgeous, and it was really exciting to be standing next to her. I represent one side of drag, and she represents the complete opposite of that. But together, we really represent the best of what drag has to offer. She loves Drag Race, maybe even more than I do, so I'm sure she will be back, and she has it in her to win. She knows that she has me in her corner if she ever decides to do it again."

Kori King praises Lydia B. Kollins on 'All Stars 10' & shows love to lesbian fans
Good morning Kingdom! Kori King is one of the undeniable breakout stars to come out of RuPaul's Drag Race season 17. Not only is she entertaining audiences with her viral Cameo videos and booking gigs across the country, but her adorable romance with her Drag Race competitor Lydia B. Kollins is making hearts melt all over the world. After performing to a sold-out crowd at the RuPaul's Drag Race Season 17 Extravaganza at WorldPride, King showed her support to Kollins ahead of the All Stars 10 finale. "I am so happy! She has been killing it and I'm very proud of her. Shout out to lesbians! We are the lesbian power couple. I love that we're able to give a voice, especially in the drag community, [since] there's not a lot of lesbian representation," King tells PRIDE. See on Instagram Beyond falling in love with Kollins on the show, King has another hilarious highlight from her time competing on Drag Race. "If we're going to be honest... when I went home! I love the love from the fans, but the hate gets so old. The RuGirls can attest to this — when you get eliminated, all of a sudden everyone's like, 'We do love her!'" King even compared her elimination and positive reception from the fans to people mourning an iconic celebrity's death. "It's like when you're a celebrity and then you die and everyone automatically loves you! That's what it's like when you get eliminated on Drag Race. It felt like I died and I was reincarnated and I could watch over my funeral and see everyone mourn!" RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10 is streaming now on Paramount+.

RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10 Finale: Which Wild Card Pick Will Return? And Which Queen Was Snubbed?
Gooped. Gagged. Gobsmacked. If any of the above describe your current emotional state, there's a good chance you just finished watching the penultimate episode of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10. I'll start with the question on every viewer's mind: What the heck happened to Mistress Isabelle Brooks? Initially considered a frontrunner in the competition, both as a fierce competitor and a shady schemer, the Texas titan returned for the semifinals last week as a shell of her former self, bombing Snatch Game and having to lip sync for her life. But instead of letting this light a fire under her, Mistress continued to spiral this week, landing back in the bottom two after a subpar talent show performance and so-so runway look. More from TVLine Criminal Minds Boss Talks Finale's Chilling Tease, Reveals Season 19 Time Jump and 'Overdue' [Spoiler] Arc Get Paramount+ for Just $1/Month - Binge Criminal Minds, The Chi, Drag Race All Stars and More Save the Dates: Eva Longoria's Wrexham Spinoff, Drop on Peacock and More And that's to say nothing of her bizarre behavior throughout Episode 11, beginning with her icing out the other queens with short, snippy responses. I'm proud of Aja for maintaining her composure in the Werk Room; lesser queens would have lost their cool over Mistress' senseless taunting. The more she talked, the more I felt like I was watching someone unravel — someone I once genuinely rooted for. But after suffering through more of Mistress' shenanigans this week, I wasn't the least bit disappointed to see Lydia B(utthole) Kollins send her home at the end of the hour. That's right, Mistress was the last contestant eliminated ahead of next week's grand finale. That means the following queens are confirmed to be competing in the Lip Sync LaLaPaRuza: Aja, Bosco, Daya Betty, Ginger Minj, Irene the Alien, Jorgeous and Lydia. But wait, the gooping, gagging and gobsmacking continues! Following Mistress' elimination, RuPaul (with an assist from the always-delightful Angeria Paris VanMicheals) revealed the judges' Wild Card picks: Ross Mathews chose Mistress, while Michelle Visage and Ts Madison both chose Kerri Colby. Did anyone else assume that three judges would mean three queens? Because I sure did! And are you also surprised that none of the judges voted to bring back Denali? Don't get me wrong, Kerri definitely deserved a vote, and I'm not totally shocked that Mistress got one, but Denali felt like she earned a shot at Ru-demption. The online backlash after she 'lost' that lip sync to Ginger was real. Regardless, two Kerri balls and one Mistress ball were placed in the sacred Drag Race Bingo cage, but whose name did Bruno pull out? Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until next week for that answer. (Believe me, I watched that preview from the finale in super slow motion. No dice.) On a more positive note, I'd also like to congratulate Bosco on her well-deserved win this week. Watching her thrive on this show all season long has been a delight, and I'd be pleased as punch to see her crowned the winner of All Stars 10 next week. #TeamBosco Who are you hoping to see back on the main stage in next week's finale? Were you also expecting to see Denali's name in one of those envelopes? And who do you think will/should win the whole season? Vote for the name you hope to see in Bruno's hand, then drop a comment with your thoughts on all things below.

'Drag Race All Stars 10' Snatch Game: Questions, reactions, & results
- YouTube Editor's note: This article contains spoilers for episode 10, titled "Tournament of All Stars Snatch Game," of . Nine queens from three brackets compete in one Snatch Game, and the result is a whirlwind episode of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10 where strategies, fandoms, and storylines collide. Inspired by Survivor, fans have been referring to episode 10, titled "Tournament of All Stars Snatch Game," as a "merge" for All Stars 10: The coming together of queens who initially competed within separate groups. That element is alive, indeed, as we watch dizzying day-one dynamics playing out in week 10. Except that this is an All Stars season, so an otherwise pleasant meet-cute is also packed with callbacks and biases. There is also a sobering reminder from the queens' heightened emotions around the Snatch Game that, unlike a Survivor merge, this is not the halfway point of the season. This is not an opportunity to reset, make new alliances, and re-calculate one's position on the chess board. This merge is on the verge of the grand finale, which makes it a disruptive and nerve-racking new format to the overall RuPaul's Drag Race franchise. Paramount+ Tournament of All Stars sign on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 10 episode 10. The nine semi-finalists literally walk back into this Tournament of All Stars. It's a cute choice to have them re-enter the main stage, like the nations that introduce themselves during an Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games, or teams that walk through the field to warm up before an actual game. Aja, Bosco, Cynthia Lee Fontaine, Daya Betty, Ginger Minj, Irene The Alien, Jorgeous, Lydia B Kollins, and Mistress Isabelle Brooks enter this drag-o-dome with the points system that qualified them to the semi-finals. However, in typical Drag Race twist fashion, the rug is immediately pulled right under them. "Starting today, and for the next two weeks, semi-final rules are in full effect," a mustachioed RuPaul announces. "To start, we are wiping the points you've earned in the preliminary round, so everyone starts the semi-finals on a level playing field." RuPaul explains, "Moving forward, I will name one top All Star of the week who will receive a cash tip of $10,000. And the two bottom queens will lip sync for their lives." Paramount+ Bosco; Ginger Minj; Daya Betty on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 10 episode 10. Well, yes! The All Stars 10 semi-finals have queens shaking in their boots when Ru announces that the bottom 2 queens of each week will be lip syncing for their lives, just like they would in a regular flagship season of Drag Race. In other words, these semi-finalists in the Tournament of All Stars will not lip sync for their lives (as paired-up competitors on All Stars 1), or for your legacy (as introduced on All Stars 2), or for a Ru-demption (as utilized over the years). Their fates will not be decided by a teammate, by other queens voting in a Ru-mocracy system, nor by the top 2 queens of the week. For context, the official "lip sync for your life" term was only used once on All Stars 2 for the "Shut Up and Drive" lip sync between Alyssa Edwards and Tatianna. It made sense, as those queens had been eliminated from the season and were lip syncing for a chance to return to the competition. That term was then used similarly in the "LaLaPaRuZa" episode of All Stars 4, which was also about the potential return of eliminated queens. As eliminated queens were paired up with current competitors, RuPaul declared that they had to "lip sync for your life" to keep that spot in the game. There really aren't any other instances of that term being used on All Stars. Even the iconic lip sync smackdown that nearly brought back Silky Nutmeg Ganache onto All Stars 6 was worded as a "lip sync for your Ru-demption." Nonetheless, that is the rule moving forward in the All Stars 10 semi-finals — a refreshing twist that raises the stakes of this season yet again. No, this wasn't the worst Snatch Game of all time. We've seen worse, several times. Unless it's for recency bias, this Snatch Game probably doesn't enter a rock-bottom list. But this intense reaction comes from a fandom that is — for once — openly loving this season. It's also wild to consider that literally all nine of these queens have made us laugh many times over the years… And then there's this. The Tournament of All Stars Snatch Game included the following impersonations: Aja as Samantha "Cookie Tookie" James, Bosco as Kenny Kerr, Cynthia Lee Fontaine as Dracula, Daya Betty as Jane Lynch, Ginger Minj as Reba McEntire, Irene The Alien as Zsa Zsa Gabor, Jorgeous as Pitbull, Lydia B Kollins as Pete Burns, and Mistress Isabelle Brooks as Natalie Nunn. Paramount+ Raven wears a crown during the Snatch Game of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 10 episode 10. In case you haven't paid attention, RuPaul ends every Snatch Game with an unserious announcement about the "winner" of the challenge. These unserious "winners" have been "the Amish, because they don't have televisions," Victoria Porkchop Parker, "Who cares?!", Charo, and "All of the celebrities who weren't impersonated tonight." But it seems like thousands of likes, comments, and re-posts are taking this unserious winner a little more seriously. "Now, the moment you've all been waiting for. Today's winner is…" RuPaul says at the end of this Snatch Game. "Raven!" The camera cuts to Raven's face. "You're a winner, baby. Condragulations, Raven. Finally!" RuPaul teases. "Is there anything you'd like to say?" Raven, with a literal crown on her head, responds: "With a tanning booth and a dream, anything is possible." Logo TV; Paramount+ Ginger Minj wins the Snatch Game as Adele on RuPaul's Drag Race season 7; as Phyllis Diller on All Stars 6; as Reba McEntire on All Stars 10. All jokes aside, actual Drag Race herstory is made during this episode. Ginger Minj (as Reba McEntire) wins the Tournament of All Stars Snatch Game and becomes the first queen of all time to win the Snatch Game three times. Ginger (as Adele) first won the Snatch Game on Drag Race season 7 in a tie with Kennedy Davenport (as Little Richard). The second time came with Ginger (as Phyllis Diller) also winning this challenge on All Stars 6. VH1; Paramount+ Cynthia Lee Fontaine is eliminated after a Snatch Game impersonation as Sofía Vergara on RuPaul's Drag Race season 9; as Dracula on All Stars 10. Gia Gunn was the first queen — and, until this episode, the only queen — to be eliminated twice as a result of underperforming in the Snatch Game. The first time as Kim Kardashian on Drag Race season 6, then a second time as Jenny Bui on All Stars 4. Cynthia Lee Fontaine's first Snatch Game, as Sofía Vergara, resulted in her elimination from Drag Race season 9. The Cucu queen unfortunately has the same outcome after impersonating Dracula in this All Stars 10 edition of the Snatch Game. Paramount+ Mistress Isabelle Brooks lip syncs to 'Who's Zoomin' Who' by Aretha Franklin on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 10 episode 10. Facts are facts, America! Mistress Isabelle Brooks delivers a truly legendary lip sync performance to the a cappella version of "Who's Zoomin' Who" by Aretha Franklin. And speaking of facts: Franklin's 30th album, Who's Zoomin' Who? (which has an actual question mark not included in the title track), is celebrating its 40th anniversary this Wednesday, July 9. Beyond what anyone thinks about MIB's reality TV shenanigans and/or social media antics, the diva is entirely clocked-in for this lip sync and had old-school drag fans passionately snapping at their TVs for the entire duration of this number. Mistress had a powerful command of the stage while serving a wildly entertaining face journey and being in perfect synchrony with the rhythm of the lyrics… An absolute knockout of a performance that stands out for all the right reasons. It was hard to believe that Drag Race, in 2025, took such a big swing with an a cappella lip sync for this Tournament of All Stars. But it did, and it was incredible. Thank gawd. Do we love to hear that Cynthia Lee Fontaine is suddenly eligible to enter this lottery system being teased all season long? Yes! Are we confused about how this lottery twist actually works and feel like it was heavily implied in the preliminary brackets that this was another chance for the queens who didn't qualify to the semi-finals to have a chance in the next round of the competition despite not making it there with enough points? Absolutely. Multiple things can be true at once, and that's beautiful. drops new episodes every Friday on . - YouTube This article originally appeared on Out: 'Drag Race All Stars 10' Snatch Game: Questions, reactions, & results
