The Paramount+ competition, where drag queens from around the world sing live for a chance to win $250,000, is back, with a contestant whose drag name belongs in a hall of fame.
I’ve had a running list of potential drag names, which has been living within the notes app on my phone since 2016, just in case I were ever called to arms and needed to pick up a makeup sponge. I’ll save some for myself, should that day ever come. But you can have a few of the rejects: There’s Kay Y, a twist on the popular lubricant brand; NailMe Watts, a suggestive play on one of; and, of course, Dame Dooti Stench, an absolutely vile degradation of a beloved, knighted actress.
There are a few on that list that aren’t puns, thought up during the most low-level riffing with friends. But I have such a deep affinity for a really good, clever pun that most of mine are joke-based. So imagine my shock, awe, delight, and seething jealousy when I met Militia Scunt, a queen in the batch of contestants inMilitia Scunt. It’s so good that it took me a second to fully process the punchline, even after I digested the obvious curse word in her surname.
That’s a tall order. But these queens, called from around the world to do what they do best on an international scale, make it look astonishingly easy—even with a prize of $250,000 on the line. Their performances are sweeping events that look better thanQueen of the Universe ’s second season is a spectacular showcase of talent that revives the dusty singing competition genre. It’s a season of summer television that goes down as easily as a cool glass of lemonade.
