I’m just worried for what her international reception will be. I don't think it'll be much of a hindrance. She'll probably still get some bookings. Her main source of income, and this goes out to the non canada/us/uk/australia girls only, will always come from her homeland. PPN had some bookings here and there for DragCon and a few pride events overseas but the bulk of her success is in the Philippines. Even Marina who is inarguably the most popular DRPH girl barely got any overseas booking because it's just not sufficient to have a huge chunk of the money they receive and only have it go to taxes, fares, and expenses. At most, Katkat is looking at a few western appearances, tour SEA, and become an even bigger legend in the Philippines. I think only Pangina is the queen that was able to overcome this and she had the luxury of being a host for the show and being on a Rupaul judged season. Edited October 5, 2023 by #1Pokpaker
Cryptique Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 Wait, the International Fans loathed Katkat? Understandable, but gurls character development is REAL Also, a lot of international viewers felt like Miss Jade was robbed when lbr, she's the least talented from top4.. or even top6 i dare say

Not that it has any bearing on Katkat's career though. She'll still be one of the top drag queens in the Philippines and be successful in SEA. I just hope that she's surrounded by more forward thinking people and learn from her mistakes. She's been on a redemption streak lately.
shark_heather Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 What a season I wouldn't mind watching KatKat , Jade , Bernie , Arizona and OV for another 5 episodes ( as long as there was some drama ) Fantastic queens and it was really hard to choose Bernie with her personal drama was the queen that i believe connected with most of the viewers but her outfit choises and the small wig issue on the lipsync were Jade my God what a persona . I hope i see her in All stars AND in VS and wherever is possible. Sadly she was destroyed by Arizona Arizona reminds me of Adore in S6 . Charismatic , talended , great performer but very immature and unpolished KatKat was floating on the top during the entire season as a personality, in the challenges and on the runway . I wanted an WOW moment on the final lipsync, unfortunately i didn't get any , but still she was slightly better than Arizona 1
shark_heather Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 Also what an epic moment when KatKat and Arizona took out together the 2 flags ICONIC
Rigalo Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 They all served downnnnnn mawma well yes!!! the first two lipsyncs gagged me, I loved the camera work and that they show the whole song being lipsync’d. Bernie was my pick to win the season but Katkat stomped and I love how she built the performance and was going all out by the end. She also had the words down. I know Jade didn’t do much in her lipsync but she looked ******* INSANE. When she got basically naked my jaw was on the floor Also I controversially didn’t mind the ru songs, at least they were kunty Katkat slayed this season, a deserved winner for sure.

She made the finale funnier with her runways schticks, elimination, and confessionals I hope a Bisaya queen makes it to the top 4 next season cuz Hana got really close. If not, her and Morgana are probably locks for top 4 in an All Stars anyway.
#1Pokpaker Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 Drag Den 2 getting Rampa, Kakaibabe, Basang-Basa Sa Ulan, Morena, Puede Ba, and other OPM songs In an alternate timeline, we could've gotten a Vice Ganda lipsync smackdown for the crown. Ru needs to lower the use of her songs for lipsyncs to 2 per season cuz having 4-5 Ru songs in a season is overkill.

I think it’s more of a budgeting issue more than anything tho.

I want someone like Hana Beshie or Morgana to win but the rest of the O Bar queens are probably locks for next season and may pull a Katkat/Bernie joint slayage. Maxie seems like an all rounder so I hope she's in cuz she's gonna demolish.

NumbSoul Posted January 19 Posted January 19 This was SUCH a top tier season and I'm so sad I didn't get to experience it with everyone here in real time But yeah, there was so much Drag Race last year that I couldn't keep up and only finished S2 today. All I have to say is: Bernie Legend 1 1
