Jinkx季风的“ Rupaul's Drag Race”第5季获胜,部分原因是她的抢夺游戏模仿"Little Edie" Bouvier Beale. Almost a decade later, she's a frontrunner again on the current "All Stars" all-winners season thanks to another Snatch Game slam dunk. Or dunks.
PRIDE GUIDE:“ Drag Race”最爱中的出现是本月的大型活动之一
Monsoon obliterated the competition with her uncanny impersonations of Natasha Lyonne and Judy Garland. Her Lyonne was eerily accurate, from the voice to the anecdotes. But her Garland was a direct channeling of the singer. Everything about it was perfect.
自从她最初的比赛以来,季风就在戏剧,音乐和电影中取得了成功。她谈到了回到大火,缝制挣扎和那场比赛巡回演出的情况下。
Your Judy Garland impression for Snatch Game was one for the herstory books. Are you surprised at all the love?
是的,我想是的。我上次做这件事是十年前,那是当时的全面球比赛。为了了解这种抢夺游戏的表现的速度是在整个粉丝群中以及整个媒体中都得到的,这确实是超现实的。我很高兴人们喜欢它,这是我很兴奋的事情。我很高兴。我希望爱情在整个季节中都带来,不仅对我,而且对我的所有姐妹们都在演出中。
您的口袋里有多长时间的朱迪和娜塔莎·莱昂(Natasha Lyonne)?
当您接到“阻力竞赛”的呼吁时,第一件事是您开始思考自己的抢夺游戏角色,至少对我来说,因为您知道它会以某种形式或方面出现。我很快就降落在娜塔莎(Natasha)上,因为我遇到了几次。我只是被她迷住了,我发现她很迷人。当我开始玩声音时,我想:“好吧,这里有些东西。”我想至少做一个活着的人的抢夺游戏角色,因为我以前从未做过。与朱迪在一起,她是最后一刻的决定。我一直来回走动。是我的朋友口渴的伯灵顿,他在我体内解锁了朱迪,并教了我如何去朱迪。我没有告诉她这是什么用途,但是我说:“如果我要在高调的环境中模仿朱迪,我有你的祝福吗?(Garland voice)
当您接到本赛季的电话时,这是立即的吗?
我告诉他们:“给我一个星期的思考”,我想我花了两个星期。随之而来的所有有趣的东西,当您是完美主义者和像我这样的工作狂时,没有什么一半。我真的,真的做了很多工作,只是准备再次回到这个领域。但是我认为最终是我丈夫说的:“如果它播出,而您不在那儿,您会后悔没有做任何事情。无论需要什么,都可以找到一种让自己进入那里的方法。”为什么我花了一段时间才决定的很大一部分是因为我对我的职业生涯和生活中的生活真的很满意。我在手工艺和艺术形式上做了很多工作。作为人类,我为自己做了很多工作。我非常接近三年清醒的周年纪念日。我只是在这个非常好的地方,我中有一部分人喜欢:“为什么要篡改一件好事?”但是我认为这也是因为我处在一个好地方,现在是最好的时机,并将自己重新引入世界。
像回到沃克房间一样,那是什么字面上的第一刻?
I think there was a moment of, "OK, you got this. You've done this before. There's some queens over there. There's some cameras over there." It was definitely less of a shock to the system than the first time that I did it. I kept singing the song "As If We Never Said Goodbye" from "Sunset Boulevard" to myself on the day of our first episode filming. I felt a little bit how Norma Desmond feels when she thinks she's gonna have her big return. There's something nostalgic about going into that arena again after a long break.
Did anything on this current season throw you for a loop?
I think the most surprising thing is the comfort and ease that I felt with the rest of the cast. And the comfort and ease that we as a cast felt with the crew and the production aspects of it. Some of those girls, this was their third time being on the show. There was a familiarity and a family quality to everything. It just felt like the whole time we were really there to celebrate ourselves and each other in a way that was different from the first time in the competition.
在整个比赛中,柱塞有多少压力点?
In a normal season, if you do well, you get to kind of sit back, for a second at least, until the next challenge. But with this element, with the plunger and the blocking, doing well means you're most likely next on the block-block. You gotta do well and keep doing well, otherwise you're gonna be subect to a blocking.
您是否第一次从本赛季有任何帮助?
One of the biggest lessons I learned the first time was whatever you do, whatever your aesthetic is, whatever drag you wanna present, do it at 100-percent. Nothing was brought to the competition without lots of thought and lots of work put into it ahead of time. All of my looks that I wear on the runway were carefully thought out by me and my designers. When it comes to the challenges, I just had to trust my instincts as a performer and trust that I've been doing this for awhile. Whatever the challenge is, find a way to make it fit within who I am as an entertainer and an artist so that I'm always staying genuine and authentic, even if it's difficult.
您通过缝纫挑战做到了!看起来真的还不错。
我认为最终的结果是更好的比我worried it was going to be. But also, I'm very realistic. No one person can have every talent. Knowing that this was my weakness, I just wanted to get through it and on to the next challenge. Luckily, Trinity (the Tuck) stepped in and talked me off the ledge at some point. But when you look at the queens that are there with the design skills to pay the bills -- Jaida (Essence Hall) and Trinity are such amazing seamstresses, Shea (Coulee) has such an eye for fashion, Raja has such a unique vision, Yvie (Odlly) always finds a way to bring her style and her aesthetic. I didn't know as much about The Vivienne's design skills, but even she was super-skilled at everything. And Monet having had to go through so many designing challenges. Everyone had their own skills and limitations. But I don't think I ever thought, "Oh, I'm gonna win a ball challenge." Kind of being realistic throughout that, it wasn't so much of a tragedy. I was prepared to not be the best in that category. I was just happy to wear something that stayed together and held up as I walked the runway. And, you know, purple looks great with orange hair.
