Let the Drag Race Begin!

By
"RuPaul's Drag Race," the search for the "next superstar drag queen," premiered its first episode on Logo last February 2. And boy, are we in for a ride!



Hosted and produced by legendary drag queen RuPaul, this reality show is a combination of America's Next Top Model, Project Runway, and a little bit of American Idol on the side. The winner, who will earn the title "America's Next Breakthrough Drag Superstar," has to outmodel, outdesign, and outperform all of her competitors.

In the first challenge, the queens were given a limited budget and created a drag outfit using the items sold at a 99-cent store. The bottom two queens were then pitted against each other at a free-for-all lip-sync showdown.



This show is indeed a celebration of the beauty and grace exemplified by these lovely queens. (And I hope it will be shown in the Philippines.)

    Aww, since most of us aren't aware of this show yet, why don't they come up with a tagalized version this early on? Its either that or they revive Super Sireyna in Eat Bulaga.

Mga parausang lumang sinehan

By
NAG DESISYON na ang Korte Suprema na labag sa Konstitusyon ang ordinansa na nagbabawal ng short time sa mga motel sa siyudad ng Maynila. Wala na ring balak pa umanong maghain ng apela si mayor Alfredo Lim sa naturang desisyon. Nagbabala naman si Lim na handa niyang ipasara ang anumang motel sa lungsod ng Maynila sakaling may makita sila na pinapayagan na magpapasok ng mga estudyante para magshort time. Pero, teka, ito talaga ang pakay ko, ang mga lumang sinehan sa Metro Manila. Taong 2005, balak ko na itong iparating sa dati kong boss na Kongresista, ang patuloy na pamamayagpag ng mga lumang sinehan sa Maynila. Subalit, may tila tinik sa aking lalamunan na nakabara. Tila, wala akong boses sa tuwing ako ay maghahanda sa aking mga sasabihin. Tila, nakagapos ang aking mga kamay para isulat ang mga hakbang na dapat kong irekomenda para masulosyunan na ito. Alam ko, ikaw ay pamilyar ukol sa mga lumang sinehan sa buong Kamaynilaan. Sa unang pasok ko sa ganitong sinehan, ako ay tuwang tuwa. ...

PHILIPPINES: 'A Nation of Servants' - HK Journalist

By
Do we deserve this? The war at home by Chip Tsao HK Magazine The Russians sank a Hong Kong freighter last month, killing the seven Chinese seamen on board. We can live with that—Lenin and Stalin were once the ideological mentors of all Chinese people. The Japanese planted a flag on Diàoyú Island. That’s no big problem—we Hong Kong Chinese love Japanese cartoons, Hello Kitty, and shopping in Shinjuku, let alone our round-the-clock obsession with karaoke. But hold on—even the Filipinos? Manila has just claimed sovereignty over the scattered rocks in the South China Sea called the Spratly Islands, complete with a blatant threat from its congress to send gunboats to the South China Sea to defend the islands from China if necessary. This is beyond reproach. The reason: there are more than 130,000 Filipina maids working as $3,580-a-month cheap labor in Hong Kong. As a nation of servants, you don’t flex your muscles at your master, from whom you earn most of your bread and butter. As a pat...
