RuPaul's Drag Race season 14 queens savagely read photos of each other's first time in drag
Before pills came in two sizes (big and Willow) and Merle Ginsberg was a missing person, the cast of RuPaul's Drag Race season 14 were just baby queens trying to get out there and — like the Gospel of Bosco — make a difference in shake-and-go wigs and off-the-rack fantasies.
In the great tradition of, well, ourselves, EW has once again assembled the latest class of Drag Race gals to savagely read photos of each other's first time in drag, from Jorgeous as a 14-year-old baby queen to Kornbread getting dolled up on the way to visit her self-described sugar daddy.
EW RuPaul's Drag Race season 14 cast read each other's first time in drag photos.
Before the next new episode airs Friday at 8 p.m. on VH1 (followed by EW's new Quick Drag Twitter Spaces recap series at 10:05 p.m. ET / 7:05 p.m. PT), watch the season 14 queens read each other's looks in the video above, and read on for an outline of the best reads from the clip (including timestamps).
