Bianca served only slight variations on the same hairdo`s, dresses and make-up, but her attitude was deliciously snarky, where as Betty does just come off as arrogant.
Thorgy will probably be wearing similar hair for as long as she`s in the competition as she`s limited by what she can fit over her dreads.

As for Bianca... As much as I love her, and I really do, her lack of style variety bothered me. She was always on point, but fore the most part, it was the same shapes over and over. I always wanted to see a different shape gown or hair from her. The animal look and black and white ball gown look were so refreshing because they were so different from her normal style. For me, that was the only thing I didn't like about Bianca. Everything else was perfection. Especially her attitude. It worked because as hateful as she was, it was still fun and relatively harmless. She said everything with a twinkle in her eye and everyone got it. Betty doesn't have that and that's what put me off about her attitude. She was just harsh and... acidic. (I had to, sorry.)
Awwww, Thorgy. Did anyone else think of Cosima from Orphan Black when they saw her out of drag? That was all I could think of. Hopefully she can incorporate the dreads into her looks more so that she doesn't have to wear such bulky wigs all the time.
P.S. I would love to hear some of the Bianca and Adore stories, if you don't mind. :)

Thank you for calling them hairs, it made me think of Helena. :P

You`re right about Betty`s attitude, she`s a bit full of herself and that isn`t exactly endearing, but Violet wasn`t very likeable and she got herself a crown.

But enough about season 7, I like to pretend it didn't happen. ;)

Yes, Violet had incredible fashion and, of the group, deserved to win for that. The tartan was brilliant. My favorite was the bearded lady challenge where she had that gorgeous pink tea length 50's dress.
Personality aside, Pearl's beautiful. I did love looking at her. (Have you seen pictures of Pearl's dad? He's super hot, too, lol.)

I think the only Drag Race queen I fancied was Lineysha Sparks, but then when she didn`t even know who Diana Ross was it cancelled out all her beauty.

I... don't know if it's an old school thing. I think it's more that people are so over-sensitive any more. If you say even the slightest thing wrong, people attack. I think Bianca is great because she just does not care about that. She doesn't go out of her way to be insulting, but still. So, I gues, in a way, that disregard for being 100% PC at all time is more old school. But I love it. I hate how everyone is so touchy anymore. Pretty soon the entire English language is going to be taboo.
I agree though, you're going to love that type of attitude, or you're going to hate it. I'm lucky to have have friends and family who recognize my snark for what it is. :P
Hopefully Betty will soften up as the competition goes on. (Oh, Violet... )

I feel like I came out of an era where I dealt with a lot of adversity and developed a thick skin to survive it. These days they have it so much easier, but need constant validation of their self worth and book a therapist if they`re denied anything. It really has got to the point where people are scared to speak in case a Carmen Carrera type makes a stink :(
Even if Betty stays spiky I still appreciate her look, I don`t have to like the bitch for that !
The only thing I will say in Violet`s favour is that she really studied and knew her fashion, and to have that down so young is impressive to me.
no subject
I'm the same way. I had to toughen up and deal with all of the bullies and what not because the schools just did not care one little. In fact, they blamed me. I learned to deal with it and embrace who I am, no matter what anyone else thinks. If was awful, but I'm much stronger for it. I got me a thick hide now!
Now everyone gets a gold star simply for showing up.
Betty... Le sigh. I wish she'd just not speak because she is stunning in the challenges. The acapella challenge? I couldn't keep my eyes off of her. I keep hoping that maybe we get a tiny glimpse of something else personality wise. I hope we finally cracked through the shell a little bit when she pulled out the "fat" pictures and talked about hitting on Kim Chi. I want more of that attitude.

I may be just as clueless about 2k as a lot of kids are about the 20th century, but I was so amused by the way Bob convinced naive Naomi that Garbo was in the Spice Girls :D
I don`t actually find Betty unbareable, she just wanted to get the task down and to me that`s just being professional. Besides if Chi Chi has smelt the brains from a gangland shoot-out, she`s hardly gonna be phazed by Betty`s sissy showdown :D
