Miss Understood on Project Runway!If you love drag queens and Project Runway, today is the show for you!

We’ve got New York City’s very own Miss Understood of Screaming Queens talking about the Drag Queen Challenge on the hit reality TV show Project Runway.

Miss Understood spills the beans on how reality TV shows are taped and what it takes to make it big.

Join us as we talk about the designers we love, the ones we hate- and the clothes that made a lasting impression.

We watched the airing of the episode at Retro Fit in San Francisco. It’s a shop run by LeMay, one of the drag queens on the show. She who wore the awful dress with the unbelievable collar. As we watched poor Jerrell construct the crazy drag costume, a crushed LeMay kept screaming “No, don’t do it!” The party goers loved her enthusiastic drama.

RuPaul and Heidi KlumRuPaul is a judge on Project RunwayRuPaul made her first television appearance in quite a while, but why did she look so awful? That wig looked like it had gone through the washing machine. We know, it’s hard to “do a twirl” or “sashay, shante” but just pass a comb through it once or twice. They even used Joan Collins level Vaseline on the lens and she still looked like a hung-over Sarah Jessica Parker!

A cross dressing thief in Florida snatched a woman’s purse but the person left behind a very important clue- a fake breast. Well, it may not be an important clue but the police are processing the water filled condom for fingerprints and DNA evidence.

I think we finally figured out why McCain picked Alaskan Governor Sarah Pallin for his vice president. She is a metaphor for the republican party. She is a loving mother who’s child has strayed and now she is making everything better by getting her pregnant daughter married. She’ll do the same with her faltering party and steer it on the right track.

Her speech at the Republican National Convention seemed to say everything the party wanted to cover- terror, taxes and energy. That’s the great thing about rhetoric, it doesn’t even have to be true to resonate.
