Welcome to MsMojo, and today we’re counting down our picks for the Top 10 RuPaul’s Drag Race Moments That Made Us Laugh Uncontrollably.
For this list, we’ll be looking at the most gut-busting moments in “Drag Race” herstory.
Which of these entries had you wheezing like RuPaul? Sound off in the comments below.
#10: Tia Kofi Assesses Her Look
“Who Wore It Best”
The queens’ runway commentary is a highlight of any “Drag Race” episode. While most of the contestants use the opportunity to talk themselves up, UK drag queen Tia Kofi was less than enthusiastic about her own design. Tia’s hilariously straightforward self-critique of this outfit “made of materials that is on her body” became an instant classic. But not even her snake arms could distract the judges from noticing just how subpar the look was. Regardless, Tia maintained a positive attitude about it, cracking up the judging panel with her banter. Even the notoriously critical Michelle Visage couldn’t help but laugh at the queen’s complete commitment to the bit.
#9: Roxxxy’s Sequence Gown
“Can I Get an Amen?”
What is it about drag queens being wrong that’s just so funny? Over the years, “RuPaul’s Drag Race” has been a veritable mishmash of malapropisms, notably Alyssa Edwards’ take on postmortem rigidity. But few are as memorable as the one that brought the recording of the timeless drag anthem “Can I Get an Amen” to an absolute halt. Fans can never forget when Season 5 queen Roxxxy Andrews made it clear that a sequin dress is actually called a sequins dress. Why? Because it has more than one sequin. Duh! Look, we stan a grammar queen, but yes, Roxxxy, ‘sequins dress’ is indeed “wrong English.”
#8: Latrice Makes Peace
“Frock the Vote!”
Season 4 fan favorite and Miss Congeniality winner Latrice Royale was quick to laugh, but she somehow always managed to be poised when she threw major shade. Her insightful and sometimes biting commentary on her fellow queens’ behavior was funny and accurate. Nowhere was that clearer than in this Episode 9 challenge, which had the queens face off in a mock presidential debate. Guest judge Dan Savage asked Latrice the last time she made peace with someone. The quick-witted queen took the opportunity to get in a major dig at the season’s apparent villain, Phi Phi O’Hara. It was so good that even her competitors fell apart with laughter.
#7: Back Rolls
“Snatch Game”
Full disclosure, body-shaming is never okay. Still, every “Drag Race” fan remembers where they were when “back rolls” happened. While Alyssa Edwards and Coco Montrese may have had the most legendary feud of Season 5, young Jade Jolie threw her wig in the ring during this classic “Untucked” episode. After receiving some unsolicited advice from the dancing queen herself, Jade snapped back with a vengeance. She took a shot at Alyssa’s shoulders not matching her hips, and also accused her of having “back rolls.” Alyssa Edwards is a queen of unintentional physical comedy. Her eye-popping reaction to Jade’s insult is what really enshrined this phrase in the “Drag Race” lexicon.
#6: Crystallized Chicken
“RuPaullywood Stories”
Excelling at “Drag Race” means believing you’re the most gorgeous thing on the runway, no matter what. Kennedy Davenport put that theory to the test with her ‘Death Becomes Her’ look. What probably came off as a bedazzled, dirt-brown chicken bodysuit to the audience was actually, in her mind, the height of glamor. Let’s just say it would definitely stop traffic. And maybe a few hearts, too. Needless to say, her Season 7 sisters Ginger Minj and Katya had questions about the meaning behind the outfit. Kennedy’s long and drawn-out explanation only made the moment all the more iconic. That’s the power of drag… and delusion.
#5: RuPaul vs. Tammie Brown
“Re-United!”
Walk some children in nature before you come for her. Tammie Brown may be dramatic, but she doesn’t do drama. When RuPaul tried to lecture her during the very first reunion special, the host clearly didn’t realize the future All-Star was not one to be messed with. When faced with conflict, the kooky and unflappable Tammie’s defense is usually some outrageous non sequitur. Her quip about “walking children in nature” still confounds us to this day, and only Tammie can make such a retort at Ru and get away with it. Many queens may have stood up to the host since then, but none as hilariously as Tammie Brown.
#4: Orange-gate
“Snatch Game”
Alyssa Edwards and Coco Montrese’s off-show rivalry became one of the defining story arcs of Season 5. The two took constant potshots at one another over some pageant drama that was never totally explained on the show. However, things weren’t all fun and games for Coco. The tension got so thick in the workroom that Alyssa’s so-called jokes about her makeup brought her to the point of rage. The ridiculous comment and Coco’s immortal response have since become some of the most quotable lines for “Drag Race” fans. It may be the defining moment of the two queens’ feud, but it’s also one of the most meme-worthy scenes from the entire series.
#3: Jinkx Monsoon as Judy Garland
“Snatch Game”
The All-Winners edition of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” gave Jinkx Monsoon the chance to showcase her top-notch comedy skills once again. When it comes to legendary performances, though, her Snatch Game recreation of gay icon Judy Garland is destined to go down as one of the best in “Drag Race” herstory. From her masterful Old Hollywood accent to spontaneously bursting into song, Jinkx manages to bring the long-dead legend back to life. And who doesn’t love a little dirty humor to top things off. Ru, the judges, and even her fellow competitors couldn’t deny how hilarious Jinkx’s impersonation was.
#2: Miss Vanjie
“10s Across the Board”
When she showed up on set for Season 10, Vanessa Vanjie Mateo probably didn’t intend to go home first. And she most likely didn’t think she’d become a meme either. But that’s exactly what happened by the end of the very first episode of the season. All of America watched as a despondent Vanjie repeated her name three times and then vanished from our screens forever… Or at least, until the next season. What could we do but laugh? Ru, Michelle Visage, and the other queens kept referencing the iconic moment throughout the season, even before they knew it would become an Internet sensation. Who says going home first can’t make you a star?
Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions.
River Medway's Traffic Cone, “The Return of Royalty”

Vivacious’ Entrance, “RuPaul’s Big Opening Part 1”
Mother Took Quite a While to Actually Arrive
#1: Utica Serves Face
“RuPaulmark Channel”
A werkroom visit with RuPaul turns wacky when the host asks Season 13 contestant Utica Queen if she’s ever smoked a certain illicit herbal substance. Unsure how to answer the question without incriminating herself, Utica does what any sensible person would. She makes a series of faces for the camera that become more and more unhinged as the seconds stretch on. There’s nothing all that clever about it, but RuPaul’s echoing laughter and Utica’s relentless grimaces make for a ball of fun, quirky and ridiculous joy. Legend has it that Ru’s lungs grew three sizes that day. The rest of us, however, are still catching our breath.
