THIS ‘POSE’ PARODY IS THE FUNNIEST THING YOU’LL SEE ALL DAY
It’s tens across the board for this hilarious “Basic Ball” sketch from HBO’s new comedy A Black Lady Sketch Show. Ever wonder what a Pose-style ball for the non-fabulous would look like? Wonder no more! Perfectly channeling Billy Porter’s Pray Tell, Bob the Drag Queen emcees a ball. The sketch, parodizing the categories found in the…
THE CAST OF ‘POSE’ REACTS TO THEIR HISTORY-MAKING EMMY NOMINATIONS
The cast of Pose is fully aware that their show got nominated for a bunch of Emmys today, and they’re really, really fucking excited, to say the least. The Academy of Television Arts and Sciences announced on Tuesday that Pose, the Janet Mock and Ryan Murphy-produced period ballroom drama now in its second season on FX, had received six…
“TOO CLOSE TO HOME”: POSE ADDRESSES VIOLENCE AGAINST TRANS WOMEN OF COLOR IN HEARTBREAKING EPISODE
Last night’s episode of Pose addressed the violence faced by transgender woman of color — historically and today. The episode is earning critical acclaim, as well as high emotions from critics and viewers alike. Pose, which airs on FX, is a Ryan Murphy show set in 1980s and 90s New York City.

RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE: SEASON 11 “GRAND FINALE”
As I sort of felt coming, RuPaul’s Drag Race ended, and all I feel is relief. It was an overly-long season that was capped with an overly-long finale. Sure, the right person won, but it came at the conclusion of a 90-minute finale that really only featured 20 minutes of content. Instead we were treated to extended…
RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE: SEASON 11, EPISODE 12 – “QUEENS EVERYWHERE”
You guys, I am tired. Don’t get me wrong, I still love RuPaul’s Drag Race, but mama needs a break. As we head into the upcoming finale, the thing that excites me most is for the whole thing to be over. It’s not the fault of the queens or the producers or Ru herself, there…
RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE: SEASON 11, EPISODE 11 – “BRING BACK MY QUEENS!”
Woof. That certainly was one stinker of a RuPaul’s Drag Race episode. Full of fan-favorite, dependable challenges and a head-to-head lip sync between two queens who have yet to appear in the bottom two, all the ingredients were there for a barn burner. And yet? In the words of Mama Ru herself, “Meh.” Instead, all this season’s…
RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE: SEASON 11, EPISODE 10 – “DRAGRACADABRA”
We all know are queer people are magic, right? I don’t mean to generalize, but having heightened empathy, creative aptitude, connection to nature and enduring spirit does make me believe that queer people are basically witches. (Every time we take our PrEP with vodka-soda we grow stronger!) That’s why I’m surprised it’s taken RuPaul’s Drag Race so…
RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE: SEASON 11, EPISODE 9 – “L.A.D.P.!”
It seems last week’s loose Snatch has led to a much tighter race between our remaining queens on RuPaul’s Drag Race. We’ve finally axed about half of our starting lineup, so now’s the time for the front runners to really start swinging. And last night’s episode gave them just enough rope to hang themselves. That’s not to say…
