It has been revealed that RuPaul is officially stepping down as host of ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under,’ with Michelle Visage taking over as host of season 4 with Mama Ru’s blessing.

What are your thoughts on this?

    Yeah I’ve seen watcha packing and you’re funny, she is very loving and supportive. The episode with plasma was my favorite because it was the first time someone shared the same passion for Plasma’s background in musical theater I also felt.

    I hadn’t thought about how she evolved, but what you’re saying seems very true. She did go from the evil to the caring judge. I hope there won’t be a charisma vacuum though because with all the things one can criticize about Ru, she’s so damn charismatic and she really fills the room. In any case, I’m going to be rooting for Michelle and the new season of Down Under

      I hope that they have at least one guest drag queen judge per week which should help with that part.

      This also will make the “the host is a drag queen runway reveal” moment strange. Michelle is ALMOST a drag queen, but are we going to get some crazy outfits or will it be more her traditional Jersey style?

      It will be fun to watch either way, and I hope it’s good!

        Oh ye you’re right! I don’t see Michele doing the ‘may the best drag queen, win!’ moment. That would be cringe. I’m sure she can come up with an altenative
