Rupaul’s Drag Race Season 2 Hopefuls: An Early Roundup

The casting site itself is a fun distraction from your day job — or a nice time-suck for the unemployed.  Allow us again, like we did last year, to direct your attention to the following trannies (all from San Francisco, and including one bio-female) who we’d like to see thrown in the mix next season.  SF, represent!

There’s still a month until the first round of web voting is complete, but in the spirit of voting early and voting often, we recommend you start now (you can vote for each queen once a day — and Nina Flowers didn’t stay on top last year without a large and quick-fingered fan base).

Raya Light
She’s one of those queens who’s just retardedly insane, and last year she posted this video with a batshit rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” that included a crack/meth pipe, and we were in love. The former Miss Trannyshack showed up at a party we were at last week in a hospital gown and pushing a walker, and as we speak she’s riding in the AIDS/Lifecyle ride down to L.A.  If she gets on the show, this bitch will freak everyone out and will not disappoint.

Drag Queen Pollo Del Mar
Pollo Del Mar

Due in part to her persistent Facebooking, Pollo’s the highest ranked of all the SF queens currently throwing their hats in the ring.  She was the last, and technically the still-reigning Miss Trannyshack (see her multimedia winning number here), and she is a sometimes guest blogger on The Sword.  She is Amazon-tall and has a flair for self-promotion, and we would love to see her do battle with some tinier princesses on that catwalk.

Drag Queen Pollo Del Mar

Hoku Mama Swamp
A faux queen who vied for the Miss Trannyshack title herself with a huge period-costume number, Hoku takes her performing seriously, but believes drag should always have a sense of humor.  You can watch her audition tape here, which begins with her munching on a corndog snack by the fire and talking about her roots in Hawai’i. We don’t know if America can handle the concept of a faux queen, but we’d love to watch them try.

Ginger Snap
Ginger used to perform regularly with her drag mother Gina LaDivina at our favorite unironic drag venue, Aunt Charlie’s, and now she hosts a monthly party called Snap-ilicious. She’s a Bay Area native, an ex-Baptist, and she is also very tall and not afraid to kick some tranny ass.

Mercedez Munro
Check out the guns on this one!  Mercedez appears as a boy in this first intro video, and wants to show the world that “big boys can make pretty girls too.”  S/he promises to be in drag in the next video, but until then, vote for Mercedez so we can watch her beat up on the girls.

And we also want to give shout-outs to and tell you to vote for Miss Nix, Cookie Dough, Landa Lakes, Diva Dan, Anjie Myma, Paju Munro, Veronica Lewinsky, Artemis Chase and Holy McGrail.  And she doesn’t need our help, but we’d love to see NYC queen Hedda Lettuce make it on the show as well.

  1. Of course, there is also the tiny detail that one of the drag queens you give a shout-out to used to be a porn star (some low-budget stuff but also one Lucas movie).

    1. Good morning. Sorrow was like the wind. It came in gusts.
      I am from Vietnam and also now am reading in English, tell me right I wrote the following sentence: “The returning silk pursues the non-combustible sink into a large, nude and average small-time form for temporary motifs.”
