RACHEL’S TEAM PICK:
Were you concerned that there wasn’t a reason to talk about Julie Goldman this week? I know, sometimes I worry too. But never fear, this week you can Julie early and Julie often starting tonight at 9 PM! (And available online the next day!) Julie Goldman will be one of 3 butch ladies on Drag U getting “glamazon makeovers” from Jujubee, Raven and Ongina. I don’t want to be premature, but I think this might even be better than Julie Goldman As “Masculine Bowling Lady” In Season Finale Of Bones. Which, I know, is a bold statement. But really, check this ish out.
Oh, and just as a perk, this episode will also feature Dot-Marie Jones, who I understand plays some sort of “coach” on a popular television show about singing children. Perhaps you will enjoy that also.
Are you as excited as me? No, you’re not, because no one could possibly be as excited as me. It’s cool I’ll just be over here wearing both flannel and eyeliner in honor of the occasion and clutching my homemade movie poster for The Nicest Thing. NBD.
omfg, this is going to be amazing.
I can’t even handle it.
I am SO EXCITEDDDDDD
words cannot describe. Be Still, my little homogay heart. <3
I love Drag U and I love Julie Goldman.
My heart may not be able to deal with this much awesome in one show.
Like a dream.
OH SWEET! I like this!
RAH! Drag U is my new favorite show, it makes me cry, it makes me laugh, it makes me feel all warm and gooey inside. And tonight’s show most likely will make my head explode from happiness.
True story: Watching Ru and all the queens on Drag U talking to the ladies has done more for my self esteem than all the other crap I’ve tried. Go figure.
we are sorry copyrights restrict us from playing this video outside the U.S

MEXICATESSEN

i don’t know/are you ok/how are you handling this?
It’s okay Julie when I wear heels I get in a state of delusion due to the pain and lack of blood going to my feet. My more femme really straight sister says “beauty is pain and we are masochists!”
She says a lot of ummm interesting things.
oh man whenever my mom would brush out my hair she would say “beauty is pain” when i crrrrrried. femininity. it be crazy.
julie makes a beautiful femme!
heels scare the living daylights outta me
I just happened to tune in and I was like WHOAMYGOD JULIE and ran to autostraddle because THIS IS HAPPENING I BET SOMEONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT
and here you all are! so reliable, you straddlers and our straddling overlords.
I AM SO EXCITED
consider this topic straddled
i do wish this episode were a little more butch positive. like being femmey is a persona you can bring out when you want and play with, not something you have to turn into right now and forever. omg the song is up next bye
i thought about that, too, but i think the whole being transformed by drag queens thing (as opposed to like, FAAB femmes) suggests that the butch in a dress is also playing with femme performance, not trying to become femme forever because butch is bad.
also it helps a lot that the brand of femme they turn them into isn’t normative/traditional at all. it’s prettttyyyy queer.
also i’m watching this on delay and i just have to say this: “adjustable rate mortgages”
THE BEST.
yeah totally, that’s a great point. i watch this show like evangelicals go to church so i am tuned into the queerness overload of it
this is my first episode! do they teach all contestants to be drag queeny, or do they teach other forms of queerness?
drag queeny! its more about self-esteem and body positivity/overcoming personal struggles. and glitter.
Lots of glitter!
Brandy and Haviland cameo—SHUT UP!! love it.
Waiting waiting for logo to post video for my non logo channel having viewing pleasure.
Woo its up!
Huh. I thought for sure it would be between Julie and Skylar.
The “Julie’s friends” moment was definitely exciting, because it was unexpected. Just like when Julie was on Bones. It’s like OMG THIS PERSON IS ON MY TV RIGHT NOW WHAT!?
Great stuff and one can watch it number of times.
Julie you cracked me up in this episode! Bravo for going along with the show.
