A lot more outright, probably, is that the ranking classifies any type of queens that really did not make the “Leading 20” right into 4 considerably questionable “power colleagues”: The Tops, The Upper Rate, The Mid-Tier, and also All-time Lows. That aggravated All Stars 2 queen Phi Phi O’Hara– that, by the way, additionally saw that her biography was wrong.

And Also though Marauder‘s prelude makes it clear the courts were placing just Drag Race entrants, the heading called these 100 honorees the “Many Effective Drag Queens in America,” that made for some obvious noninclusions, as All Stars 4 co-winner Monét X Adjustment mentioned.
Additionally I’m simply seeing this goddamn checklist! Fuck @vulture and also their positions.
