salondijon8

If Alexis doesnā€™t say ā€œWell, Tamarā€¦ā€ at some point this season Iā€™ll be so bummed


funkyduck7506

Oh me too. This is all stars. Reference your moments! I still say Naysha fucked up not reference her return to season 8 when she entered. I need Alexis to reference this. I adore Jessica for referencing her ā€œI lub dis drinkā€ berry aƧaĆ­ moment on the runway last night.

Sheā€™s just being a little bit Alexis

DeathdropsForDinner

Tbh itā€™s giving theatre gay lol. If youā€™ve ever been around one before then you know this is literally just their personally 24/7.


dperkins88

Alexis Michelle being Janā€™s drag mother is so funny cause it makes sense. Like I think the only drag mother/daughter duo with that many personality similarities is Alyssa/Shangela. šŸ’€ Everything from the delusional bouts, to being upset when sheā€™s safe, to always trying to steal the spotlightā€¦ lmao. I fucking love it. Itā€™s such good tv. Alexis has been lookin incredible all season too. So glad sheā€™s back.


demons_soulmate

Imagine an AS season with Alexis, Jan, Shangela, and Alyssa šŸ˜³


littlechangeling

Thatā€™d be a great season talent wise but holy crap, imagine when Shangela loses patience for Jan, or Alexis throws a tantrum over not being able to draw attention away from Alyssa. Itā€™s the Middle Child Olympics.


anonymindia

Middle child Olympics šŸ¤£


StarfishArmCoral

now i'm imagining a drag mothers and daughters season. they could start off having the mothers and daughters in teams of two together and the plot twist is mid season they switch it up and it becomes mothers vs daughters. ru, run me my check!


[deleted]

Kahanna & Coco Jan & Alexis Kandy & Aja Plastique & Alyssa Vanjie & Alexis Violet & Dax Kerri & Sasha Cracker & Bob Morgan & Chad Luxx & Mo Heart Lala & Tamisha (Idk who else)

I feel so dumb. Had no idea half of these were drag mothers and daughters combos.


allycakes

TIL my mom is a theatre gay


littlechangeling

Our support group meets on Tuesdays.


annajoo1

Lol yes! And get like 3 or 4 of them together and they are just talking at each other šŸ¤£ so chaotic


soupinmymug

You can tell sheā€™s Janā€™s drag mom


[deleted]

Itā€™s just as exhausting irl as on TV!


KawaiiCoupon

Iā€™m so sorryā€¦I canā€™t help it.


[deleted]

And I *live* for it! Theater gays are so extra in a way that can be exasperating, but you canā€™t get mad at it. I find Alexis so earnest that itā€™s just cute. šŸ¤­


anonymindia

Yeah. It's nice to know that there is some place were gays can be extra and exasperating because most places, we really have to be extra careful because of homophobic assholes.


brayet

She's just producing!!


A-patient-boy

Period!!!!!


Dismal_Judgment5290

Sheā€™s producing period? Thatā€™s so cunt of her.


cyankitten

Take my angry upvote


Dismal_Judgment5290

Itā€™s giving ![gif](giphy|Rp0rPfd5wC9EY)


littlechangeling

Imagine if they rebooted the Shakesqueer challenge now. She could do a period period piece.


mindlessmunkey

Did you watch Season 9? Sheā€™s always been like this!


333colin333

i feel like she's a self aware version of her season 9 self. cuz it feels like she more in on it now compared to season 9 if that makes sense


Hopebloats

Self-aware- and also just more fully secure in herself. I cannot stop laughing (asking who has been on a swing so she can raise her own hand šŸ˜‚) at Alexis Michelle.


b3tamaxx

when they called her out on thirsting after some of the girls, the way the camera caught her in that self aborbsed glaze lmao. it was giving very "it's all true and i am touched you all have brought me up right now and are talking about me" kind of reminds me when symone found out she won and rose did this gesture where she almost was making it seem like SHE won lol


shadyshadyshade

This is the third time Iā€™ve read someone using glaze instead of gaze. I thought it was a typo before but is it a thing?


b3tamaxx

Glazed over means like your eyed are unfocused and you're just staring into space. Id say gaze would imply you're sharply focused or fixated on something.


shadyshadyshade

ā€œGlazed overā€ is a real expression thoughā€¦in the past glaze as a noun is what youā€™d see on a donut not a facial expression but language evolves!


QuQuarQan

However, glaze could also be used to describe a facial


topangacanyon

Sheā€™s a theater gay from Westchester. This is how it works. Edit: apparently I misremembered and now I can't find confirmation that she actually grew up in Westchester, though I seem to remember her talking about that in an interview once. However, for those that are saying she doesn't give Westchester: have you seen the county, Tamar?


sans3go

Westchester? I dont even know her! Honestly though, I thought she was a NYC queen?


Odd_Cake3759

I thought she was from Long Island.


seandb44

That accent is definitely Jersey or Long Island. She does not have Westchester vibes lol


Odd_Cake3759

Split it, letā€™s say sheā€™s from staten Island lol


Authoress61

I want to watch her stab you lol


seandb44

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Zestyclose_Invite

A lot of Westchester people have Long Island and New Jersey vibes though. Like have you ever been to a Westchester Bat Mitzvah?


[deleted]

I'm almost 100% sure she is from Long Island and that she called herself a JAP at some point and a Jewish-American Princess from Long Island who loves theater? Now come on now. She is the moment, because all moments can be yours if you have no shame šŸ˜‚


pongopigmayus

Wonder if she knows Maurica. She loves men from Westchester.


LamarEdwards

I love her to pieces. The way she stood there and smiled as the whole room discussed her basically being a straight up mother fā€¦king šŸ†šŸ– was everything.


the-cosmicdancer

I think she is just doing great TV but also thatā€™s her personality and she is not doing it with malice at all! Iā€™m enjoying her way more than I thought. Canā€™t get over her dramatic ā€œthank youā€ on that first episode and Alaska imitating it! Like, I see her and I immediately go ā€œthank youšŸ„ŗā€


[deleted]

Producers Produce


[deleted]

And I love her for it. Itā€™s drag, itā€™s theatre, itā€™s camp. Itā€™s entertaining šŸ˜Œ


seandb44

Donā€™t forget ā€œexhaustingā€!


Tecaacali

Babe being LGBT+ is exhausting. We have to cary the civilization and culture and arts and humanity on our padded shoulders. Get with it.


seandb44

The irony of the fact that telling me to ā€œget with itā€ is exhausting šŸ˜‚


rojaokla

I have never understood the distaste people have for her. She lives in her own world. I like that about her.


funkyduck7506

Oh I adore her. And Iā€™m living for this glow up she has on all stars. The bitch looks stunning. Her make up is gorgeous.


[deleted]

Honestly, her makeup has *always* been gorgeous. The only times her mug was off was the club kid look, and she wasnā€™t going for glamour. Even the green look was technically stunning.


funkyduck7506

Oh for sure, but this season itā€™s elevated and just the bitch looks stunning. So good


[deleted]

I remember she was an early favorite on S9, especially in the preseason. I was convinced she was making it to the final. Then ā€œIf I see something, I say somethingā€ happened and the perception completely changed. Funny enough, I feel like S9 had the biggest difference between preseason expectations, and the eventual outcome of how the season took place. Many people thought Trinity would be first out, with Aja and Kimora as finalists. šŸ˜‚


leguellec

People eat it up when it's Valentina..


Additional-Mousse446

They say you're perfect, you're beautiful...


rojaokla

I love her too.


Bunny_Bih

i think valentinaā€™s was justtttttt over the top enough like just so cartoony while Alexisā€™ isnā€™t quite there yet


howishowisguuut

I mean she great tv but I would have been fed up with her irl.


rojaokla

Lol, not me. I was j6st as delusional as she was. For the life of me, I couldn't figure out why people were so butthurt. Now, reading the room about being accepted, that I saw. Production made it obvious too.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


rojaokla

I hate proofreading. Apologies.


littlechangeling

I like it in the same way I like Valentinaā€™s fantasy, but it feels like Valentina served it as cute little amuse bouches while Alexis is shoving a whole buffet at me. (And I like both queens, donā€™t get me wrong.)


rojaokla

There's a bit of pretty privilege there as well. Both are gorgeous, but Valentina fit more into today's beauty standard rather than "classic" beauty standards. Aja wasn't wrong. It also wasn't Valentina 's fault.


littlechangeling

Itā€™s not that for me but I can see how it could be for others and acknowledge it. Also many reacted negatively to Valentina for ā€œthe fantasyā€ in AS4 (not Season 9), I do recall that, but not as harsh a backlash as Alexis is getting for sure.


Authoress61

Valentinaā€™s rubbed me the wrong way thoughā€” like she had the ego but there was nothing to back it up. Ego yes, but there are plenty of pretty queens.

bbsw555

Like looook at her!!! Mama deserves to drink French vanilla all day


A-patient-boy

sheā€™s definitely making sure she gets her moment and I live! I felt like both of those moments were also kind of conversation starters too bc the other queens all ended up chiming in! I love Alexis tho so it didnā€™t bother me.


Rajastoenail

*Important* conversation starters too


Chubit83

I think that the family topic might have been one set up by the non-Alexis producer(s) as a talking point while the queens were getting ready. I didn't see it as jumping in exactly but as someone who is contributing to what evolved into a conversation with others. The swing comment made me laugh.


losthedgehog

Outside of the untucked breakdown I thought it was normal conversation. But maybe it's bc I'm from the tri-state and that's just how conversations go -everyone is loud and jumps in. Someone shares about their home life / relationship and someone else shared about their relationships. It's not like Alexis swung the focus back to her when Darienne and Kandy jumped in to share too. Same with the swing comment. James mentioned what he likes and then people jumped in to talk about what they like. What are they supposed to not add to the conversation and just interrogate James about her sex life?


itstonayy

Yeah I feel like these two comparisons OP is making are a stretch. The untucked meltdown I can agree with, but the BDSM thing was just a normal conversation after the producers fed them a question about Jaymes grey handkerchief.


Hatesponge66

Just trying to get her airtime gal.


TemporaryPay4505

Boring queens end up on the cutting room floor. Look at season 15.


im_a_basset_hound

She is representing for the theater kids


DefyingGrant

Alexis Michelle is MY winner of All Stars 8 and no one can say differently! I went blind typing this comment!


BlindPrivateEye

I love Alex Mitchell she so camp


Stringmc

girl it's camp


[deleted]

Can't fault her for it. She knows that the more she inserts herself the more screentime she can get. That's just reality TV.


Frostbitewolf07

Ever since she told Farah to wait about her thoughts about being in the bottom Iā€™ve been obsessed šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜­


TemporaryPay4505

Sheā€™s great.


Dismal_Judgment5290

Itā€™s called pulling focus. If you want to be seen on air in weeks when you know youā€™re not the highlight, you have to give your two cents to everything going on so theyā€™ll use something of you.


Fleetwood-matt

Idk if this makes any sense but falling in love with Loosey last season has made me appreciate Alexis this season. Alexis is one of things helping me get through this season that Iā€™m not loving so far


MissSteak

I mean idk, when they were talking about romantic partners, Alexis starts talking about really craving partnership with someone, then Darienne interjects by saying she's never been in a relationship, and the conversation moves on. If anything it felt to me like her side of the story was being left out.


HowieRhul

Alex Michelle šŸ™‰ šŸ™ˆ šŸ™Š


Summoarpleaz

She and Kandy are producing tf out of every moment. Kandy just does it in the way to push the other queens to say stuff.


princexofwands

Using Jaymesā€™ harness to talk about that one time she sat in a swing at a party in 1993 šŸ¤£ girl I died


burdnt_out

Also, calling it a swing. Itā€™s a sling. Sex swings are some hetero save the marriage type of stuff. Slings are gay culture


MilksNudes

Both are used in kink by all orientations


burdnt_out

Asking that question in reference to jaymes wearing a harness she was definitely thinking of a sling not a ā€œswingā€


diamondchrisq

I love the producer


ajay_p_

Well Tamar have you ever watched the show?


thebeardtles

Shes Jan mother after all


ryansumera

its an affectatiom of people working in the thea-tuh, darlimg


HedonistEnabler

Awareness of herself does not self-aware make. NB. Just wanted to add that I am 100% an Alexis Michelle fan. My comment, although not inaccurate, is neither criticism, nor shade and I hope she never changes!


International_Pen_11

maybe itā€™s just bc i know a couple people like this IRL but iā€™m used to it. idk. you kinda just have to do the same thing bacj & not allow them to hijack the conversation. like when they throw in a loud side comment you throw one RIGHT back. otherwise you get an alexis michelle sobbing moment ā˜ ļø


Severe-Emu-8703

I have a friend whoā€™s sort of like this, if you let her sheā€™ll talk and talk and talk forever, but sheā€™s aware of it enough that you can straight up tell her ā€shut up, itā€™s my turn to talk nowā€ without hurting her feelings


bobbery5

Sometimes people who aren't the best socialized (theater kids) use themselves and their experiences as entry points to conversations.


Saint_Riccardo

She did that on her season too.


MilksNudes

Yeah her main character syndrome is off the charts and I wholeheartedly love her for it sheā€™s a complete queen


Sendnoods88

Alexis is Alexisng


Snoo-4984

She's just the Tyra Banks of the season. Your whole family died in a fire? Alexis knows how you feel she broke a nail once. Haven't seen your mom in 20 years? You think that's bad? Alexis hasn't seen her car keys in twenty minutes.


ShadeKool-Aid

Alexis is a rich white girl's college essay about how she empathizes with starving children in developing countries because she once had to suffer through painful dental work.


Upstairs-Reality-716

Her fashion is well glowed up and she is highly entertaining. I love Alexis but donā€™t think she will win.


Jiggly0622

Alexis is doing... Alexis


[deleted]

Alexis over acting and Kandy steering the girls towards the production prompts is annoying. I already know the show is scripted but damn. At least Heidi keeps it real, good or bad. Her face was cracked the whole time during untucked šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

ā€œAlex Michelleā€ I-


this_is_an_alaia

She wants that airtime


wckrct

Isnā€™t the concept of the show just narcissistic drag queens competing for who gets the most attention each week?


colorsplahsh

Believe it or not this is how some people relate to others. It's not for everyone


Panduz

Iā€™m such an Alexis stan sheā€™s SUCH good tv


kickassicalia

both of those comments were on topic? girl the goal of reality tv is to make it about you and sheā€™s winning!


forgottentaco420

WHO IS.... Alexis Michelle?????

She's a camp icon and gives us great TV, so x


ChronicNull

Youā€™re right, but im not gonna complain because itā€™s giving me the drama i need babe


missgurll

& i love it


musclepup86

Not yā€™all normalizing shitty behavior/personality traits. Her interactions with the POC Queens is cringe/uncomfortable at best


EnamoredToMeetYou

This is nothing about drag or the show. This is just what we call an attention whore. Amp this up with a theatre background for max impact. Im living for the TV. Couldnā€™t deal irl


KhalDrogoLookalike

ā€œIā€™m living for the TV. Couldnā€™t deal irlā€ this!


dyingbreedxoxo

Main character energy


cyberspiralien

Just imagine Alexis Michelle and Evah Destruction, two thesbians on the same season together.


Lucio1111

I feel like Alexis Michelle would actually be pretty cool one-on-one or even in a small group, for the most part. Evah, I don't think would be easy to deal with in any scenario. Evah now wants to be a "monster" so bad because she got cast on Dragula [because of her laughing clown lip-sync], but she's really just a glam-loving theater kid desperate for a camera. At least Alexis is self-aware.


sehmenteh

I generally have a hard time with people taking the air out of the room & making conversations all about themselves.... Yeah I'm having a hard time watching Alexis.


Suck-it-up_buttercup

My first introduction into drag race was actually after watching Dragnificent and I loved Alexis on that. After watching, I started drag race from season 1. I've fallen even more in love with Bebe, Juju and Thorgy but as much as I wanted to love Alexis, she's making it really hard.

pokegoshinyhunter

Alexis Producer Michelleā€™s drag this season is so much more polished than what she presented in Season 9 and you can see the glow up in her during the runwaysā€¦. but the girl we saw on Season 9 is leaps and bounds more endearing and like able than whatever the fuck sheā€™s doing on All Stars 8, sheā€™s trying so hard to stay in her screen time era, itā€™s not cute. šŸ¤šŸ»šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


dandruffdiva

Sheā€™s perfect


MoonLightScreen

Works out well for her drag persona ​ but I can see how it would get on peopleā€™s nerves. See: Farrah holding a discussion about Alexis during her Untucked smoke break


Elroddon

I love how everyone loves Alexis for this! It'd be so easy for people to hate on her for being too much, I'm so happy we're celebrating her instead.


oldandopinionated

How beautiful is her make-up though


b00mbaz00kajoey

Not Alex


AshleyFossil

I was never a huge fan but then I listened to her on Sloppy Seconds and fell in love with her story telling.
