Get ready to crack open ya books, or crack sumpin’, because here comes a whole lotta fun — with the new professors of RuPaul’s Drag U” set for summer school, hunty!
This year’s Superstar (for-evah!) Sharon Needles will be on the faculty, scaring up new looks for schlubs who want a change! Prof. Needles will be joined by Mama Chad Michaels, who will undoubtedly give lessons in poise and general ladylike behavior and decorum.
Sharon has your shot!
Rounding out the edumacatrixes will be bad gurl “slut” Willam, who will no doubt lose her tenure before summer school is OUT!
Other drag hags joining include giantess Raven (“It’s only tinted moisturizer”), the deliciously witty Pandora Boxx, Boston’s own Jujubee, the luscious (sarap!) Manila Luzon… (below).
Big gurls Delta Work and “MF’n” Latrice Royale also have some learnin’ for ya, plus Shannel, Mariah, Alexis Mateo, marvelous Morgan McMichaels and last year’s glamah queen, Raja!
VP of Drag Lady Bunny and her giant hair will also return, along with guest judges Donna Mills, Brittany Snow, Holly Robinson-Peete, Joely Fisher and others.
Betty’s been busy bustling through Bromley as part of her Diamond Jubilee tour. Wearing one of her giant birthday cake hats which appears to be eating her, and the Pearl Quatrefoil Brooch, Her Majesty looked beautifully tweedy and mildly annoyed.
The fondant ribbon on her bonnet appears to have escaped from a baby shower gift. Betty’s blush has that kiss of spring, with her lipstick giving her that ever so slight diabolic look.

One has impeccable lipstick, carefully coiffed hair, and a penis.
Sometimes dreams really do come true! That handsome man (right) is Boy Culture blogger, Pop Star founder and Encyclopedia Madonnica author Matthew Rettenmund, seen last night with his idol, some woman from Detroit. Madonna!
Matt has been a great friend to your Chexy, linking my stories and being a swell pal and advisor. He has also tormented me at autograph shows while he gets his celebrity “pic withs” and autographs while I take photos like the one above… well, not quite like THAT one. I get to do ones like… Lainie Kazan, which I prefer.
After following and chronicling Madonna’s every move for many years, the opportunity for a photo with her was finally arranged for the internet sweetheart. And he must have heard me saying, “Move back a little, Matt,” because the pic is terrific. Read the story here.
Betty Deuce took her act on the road again, this time for a speech to both houses of Parliament at Westminster Hall, where a stained glass window was unveiled, commemorating her Diamond Jubilee, marking 60 years on the throne. It was paid for by the members of both houses.
Her Majesty reminded that she’s seen a dozen Prime Ministers in her day, and said that her jubilee was a chance for people “to come together in a spirit of neighborliness and celebration.” I guess she’s going to throw a block party.
Betty wore a buttery suit and a hat festooned with what appears to be some leftover Thanksgiving decorations from America (I think we send that stuff over there), her usual pearl necklace, and the dazzling Jardine Star brooch (see below video), which is approximately 50 carats of white diamonds.
Take a look at the video and you’ll see how she praises Phil.
Here’s a closeup of the Jardine Star, a gift to Betty from Lady Jardine.
“I usually don’t talk about stuff like this on my show, but I really want to thank everyone who’s supporting me. And if you don’t know me very well, if you’re just watching maybe for the first time, or you’re just getting to know me, I wanna be clear — and here are the values that I stand for: I stand for honesty, equality, kindness, compassion, treating people the way you want to be treated, and helping those in need. To me, those are traditional values. That’s what I stand for. “
