This is the only show I can watch with my sister without her complaining that she wants to watch something else.

Of course we each pick two favorites at the beggining of the show and staunchly support them over the other one's favorites.

[Sifen Yamishi]

No Asian queens this time though.

Cast has been revealed, dolls!
I've posted up their mugshots onto the front page.

[Sifen Yamishi]

Anyone have predictions on who they think will take the pennant?

[Pr0dlgy]

Can we discuss how SICK'NING the TRAILER is?

Based on that alone, my vote is for Sharon Needles and The Princess. They gave me my LIFE!!

[Sifen Yamishi]

Saw the trailers again and these are my favorites:

Alisa Summers
Chad Michaels
Dida Ritz
Kenya Michaels
Milan
Phi Phi O' Hara
Sharon Needles
The Princess

And has anyone noticed that Willam was one of the girls from the audition special last year?

[Pr0dlgy]

Hmmm... I might have to check it out!

Side note: Jiggly Caliente is the only big girl that I see going far. The other two are booger DOWN!

Jiggly reminds me a bit like Stacey honestly.

Look-wise, most definitely. But Ms. Caliente's makeup is more polished to me.

Commercial and mugshot: Top 5 (IMO)

The Princess - every time I saw her in the commercial was SICK, the pic made her look uber-bitchy but she's on point.

Sharon Needles - a dark themed drag queen? Yes please!

Chad Michaels - she just oozes confidence... her make up is DONE!

Phi Phi O'Hara - She's pretty and gave me Top Model realness

Willam - sensuality for your NERVE!

From the interviews, Milan or Chad will be Miss Congeniality but I LOVE Sharon's character.
