Mimi Imfurst Goes Solo With New Single

Mimi is back! She may not be with her gals in XELLE any longer (for reasons not exactly stated), but she has gone solo and is making it completely on her own. I mean, she did have a rather successful comedy act, but this is a song. Songs are my thing. Thus, we will talk about Mimi again. With love.

It goes without saying that this is a parody of the disco classic "I Will Survive" by diva Gloria Gaynor, but it really ended up being something more. The song has a lot going for it, but sadly it has a lot going against it, too. Let's say that Mimi is certainly not a singer, but I think she knows it. The song isn't about the vocals -- it's about the jokes, damn if she doesn't have plenty of them.

The plot of the song is pretty much a botched hookup. The guy promised her ten inches (yeah, that kinda ten inches), but only showed up with five, or four, or three, or even two. The running gag is that every time she sees his member, it gets smaller. The similes in the writing are really what top the cake here. Every line in this song had me rolling.

What I didn't like was that the video was more polished than the song. The video looks amazing, and yes I did rewind to see those hot tub boys make out a couple of times. The track, however, is not as top notch. It's one thing when a good song has a lackluster video -- you can still jam to it in your car, but when you have to watch a video in order to "truly" enjoy a song, that's where things start to sway in the direction of bad.

"Another Lie" is a solid first attempt for a comedy track. While I may not have enjoyed it as much as other funny queens releasing parodies, I can say that it being to the tune of such an iconic song, it will definitely earn her some brownie points. If I know Mimi, this is only a taste of what she wants to bring to the table. Maybe next time we'll get an original out of her. Imagine that, my friends!

The track is up for grabs on iTunes now!

RuPaul's All Stars Drag Race Recap - It Takes Two

The queens are back! Some for better, and some for worse, but they are back, baby! I really like the way they went about All Stars for this show, in that not all of the contestants are the top placers in their seasons. Instead, they picked those that have made an impact since they left the show including some low placing contestants such as Mimi Imfurst and Tammie Brown. Enough rambling, though, it's time for the race to begin!

[Note: As All Stars is a mini-season, I won't be devoting a lot of time or energy to this show. Very few screen caps and extras thrown in this go around. Gotta save my energy for Season Five! I'll try to keep up the laughs.]

Drag Race All Stars First Look

It is coming. I may not seem too excited about it as of late (it's hard to be excited when we've lost someone so special, but I'm keeping my head up), but I am beyond ready to see some of my favorites return to the show to prove themselves again. Thankfully Logo is really bad at keeping things wrapped up too tight, and has decided to show us the first few minutes of the show, with the queens arriving in the work room. Check out this craziness!

Of course two of my favorites are highlighted, but for two extremely different reasons. Manila Luzon was picked up in the promo because of how outrageously fabulous she is. She has the most extreme look of the group, with her hair literally holding an old fashioned cigarette in her Cruela outfit. Her attitude is sharp as always, and I have a feeling that she is going to snatch the crown this year. She may have some tough competition, but she has what it takes.

The best part of the whole promo had to be seeing Mimi Imfurst walk into the work room. Literally everyone  lost it. Of all the queens, Raven seems the most upset to see her back. I'm not sure if they have a history, or if I'm just not remembering Raven as being such a bitch on things that don't have much to do with her. Either way, the entire room went up into a roar of laughter and anger when she walked in. I guess some people are just jealous.

The footage we are seeing is taken from a few minutes into the show. We don't get to see the first queens walk into the room (I would have liked to see Tammie Brown's entrance), and many of the other queens were pushed to the background to make way for some of the big names. Pandora Boxx, for instance, is hardly even shown or noticeable in the background of the happenings while Manila, Chad, and Mimi make their way into the work room.

I have mixed feelings about this promo. Half the fun of the show is seeing a new set of girls come in to make a name for themselves. Then again, I have such love for Pandora, Raven, Mimi, Tammie, Manila, and many of the others that made it back onto the show. Many of the girls had connected before and after their season with girls from other seasons, so the dynamics and alliances will be fun to discover. The show probably has a few surprises up it's sleeve, so stay on your toes.

The first episode goes down October 22, in just over a week. The premier will be dedicated to the memory of Sahara, which is a very kind gesture from Logo. Are you ready for the madness to begin?
