Ginger Minj vs. the world: 'Drag Race' queens and fans are fighting
- YouTube From the moment Ginger Minj was announced as a competitor on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10, a pretty intense discourse was ignited over this being her fourth time vying for the crown on RuPaul's Drag Race. While there have been other queens who competed four times in the franchise, that intense reaction came from this being Ginger's fourth time competing in the U.S. series (one flagship season and three U.S. All Stars seasons). Some fans and queens are also claiming that "production" is "favoring" Ginger — though she just happens to be excelling at the maxi challenges in this third bracket of All Stars 10 — and/or that Ginger shouldn't have won the lip sync to Miley Cyrus's "See You Again" against Denali. A flood of social media posts reacting to this discourse has taken over the internet. Some shady posts had Ginger literally tagged in them. Other posts from fellow All Stars 10 queens are sharing their points-of-view from "being there" while filming. There are also queens who shared shady reactions and later claimed that they weren't necessarily reactions to Ginger. Last but not least, there are also queens who are either defending Ginger or pointing out the fact that this is "a lot of emotion for safe." Keep scrolling to see the good, the gagged, and the gooped reactions to Ginger Minj winning the maxi challenge and lip sync of episode 8 on — and make sure to watch new episodes of the season every Friday on . Eureka — who also competed on Drag Race four times between season 9, season 10, All Stars 6, and Canada vs The World season 2 — wrote (and literally tagged Ginger Minj in the X post): "Congratulations on winning All Stars Season 10 you've deserved it for while. I guess I'll watch Ginny and Georgia @TheGingerMinj." Eureka subsequently replied to a fan, writing: "What are you even saying. No one bullied anyone. Get off my page baby." Amethyst responded to Eureka's X post, writing: "Girl save it." Drag Race season 11, All Stars 6, and UK vs the World season 2 star Scarlet Envy wrote: "Imagine being FAVORED on drag race cannot relate." Drag Race España star The Macarena wrote: "Drag Race is not a God damn sports events, you don't win just for doing flips and kicks. Jesus fucking Christ y'all hate drag." Drag Race season 2 and All Stars 2 star Tatianna wrote: "Oh they are just playing RIGHT in our faces…" Drag Race España star Sagittaria wrote (translated into English): "Let's see, Denali has done a lot of splits? Maybe, even so, Ginger has done the same thing as always and honestly it's also tiring to see 40 splits in a row, for that I would have given it to Denali who at least worked on a choreography and such, I don't know." Drag Race season 11 star and Canada's Drag Race host Brooke Lynn Hytes wrote: "Are y'all ok?" Drag Race season 7 star and All Stars 3 winner re-shared Brooke Lynn Hytes's X post and wrote: "But for real!" Drag Race season 13 and All Stars 8 finalist/runner-up Kandy Muse wrote: "Girl, I'm not finishing bracket 3 call me back when the merge happens…" Drag Race season 14 star Alyssa Hunter — who's competing with Ginger Minj in the same bracket of All Stars 10 — wrote in response to Kandy Muse's post: "GIRL… Watched it in person and now on screen, still giving the same energy." Alyssa Hunter also replied to a fan, writing: "It's not about behavior, I'm only talking about the lip sync. thats all, Let me be clear: I'm not coming for any of my sisters. Outside of this produced show, I respect them all. Let's not take this personal, my loves. We all have the same right to share our opinion." Kandy Muse replied to a fan who observed that Kandy hadn't mentioned anyone by name, suggesting that people were wrong to assume that the X post was about Ginger Minj. Kandy wrote: "!!!!!! NO BC CLOCK IT." Drag Race season 15 finalist and All Stars 10 competitor Mistress Isabelle Brooks commented in the thread of X posts that included Kandy Muse and Alyssa Hunter with the "frowning face with open mouth" emoji. Kandy Muse subsequently clapped back at fans alleging that she was also favored during her two Drag Race seasons. Kandy re-shared one of those posts and wrote: "People keep saying this as if I didn't deserve every challenge win I got! try again [cigarette emoji] (I was also put in the bottom every single time I fumbled a challenge) because RuPaul genuinely liked me doesn't mean its favoritism!" Drag Race season 17 star Suzie Toot wrote: "Ginger is a superstar and you bitches wish you could do what she can." Drag Race season 4 Willam posed a question to Ginger Minj: "Question since we all here and wondering do u think you won those lip syncs too? u were there. what's your take?" Some fans pushed back on Willam asking that question. She wrote in response to one of them: "So i can't ask questions or smoke meth? can i smoke the grass or just touch it? it's not mean to ask a question. i wanted her first hand knowledge. i'm working with Jorgeous your other fave tonight Rigo. i'm gonna tell her you said hi." Another response from Willam read: "Don't say we like you speak for everyone. we don't hate ginger. you might. but the world doesn't. a lot of people love her and that's why she has been employed in this industry for two decades." The Boulet Brothers' Dragula and Sloppy Seconds podcaster Meatball wrote: "Leave her alone." Drag Race season 15 star Morphine Love Dion shared the following reactions to watching the episode: "Oh…" "All I'm gonna say is [that] I'm mad that Cucu [Cynthia Lee Fontaine] wasn't in the top." Drag Race season 16 finalist Plane Jane wrote: "Wtf did RuPaul keep laughing at??? Ginger just standing there tickles her brain tumor so fiercely." Drag Race season 9, All Stars 3, and All Stars 10 star Aja wrote: "I actually think she won this one." A fan agreed with Aja in regard to the lip sync between Ginger Minj and Denali. Aja replied: "I just feel like the performance was way more energy than the song called for and wasn't in the same vibe." Drag Race season 17 star Kori King agreed with Aja and wrote: "WAKE IT UPPPP." Amid the chaotic discourse surrounding her winning streak on All Stars 10, Ginger Minj wrote: "While I have everyone talking about me, why not just advertise some stuff." Ginger is referencing a new production that she's in, Hokus Pokus Live, premiering later this year. drops new episodes every Friday on . - YouTube This article originally appeared on Out: Ginger Minj vs. the world: 'Drag Race' queens and fans are fighting

Jake Paul has spent $39M for a massive Georgia ranch — ‘I wanted a place where I can wakesurf, hunt and build a racetrack'
Jake Paul, the YouTube star-turned-prizefighter, has just picked up a sprawling piece of Southern sporting history. The 27-year-old paid $39 million for a roughly 5,653-acre ranch in Georgia's Decatur County known as Southlands, in what brokers say is one of the largest recreational land deals in the state's history, according to a press release. The property, which came to market in October for $42.5 million, hadn't been publicly offered for nearly 90 years. Advertisement 16 YouTube star and boxer Jake Paul has purchased a historic 5,653-acre ranch in Georgia's Decatur County for $39 million, one of the largest recreational land sales in the state's history. Jon Kohlr & Associates 16 Paul said on 'The Iced Coffee Hour' podcast that he used his earnings — roughly $30 million — from his 2024 match against Mike Tyson to buy the ranch, fulfilling a longtime dream. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post Paul discussed the purchase earlier this month on 'The Iced Coffee Hour' podcast, revealing he used the bulk of his roughly $30 million earnings from his 2024 boxing match against heavyweight legend Mike Tyson to fund the acquisition.

AMC announces 'The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon' season 3 release date and trailer
¡Bienvenidos a España! Yes, "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" will officially see the titular zombie survivor (played by Norman Reedus) heading to Spain in the third season of the popular "TWD" spin-off, which is set to premiere Sept. 7. Fans got a sneak peek at all of the post-apocalyptic Spanish adventures to come in a brand-new teaser trailer. AMC released a 30-second teaser clip showing Reedus's Daryl Dixon and Melissa McBride's Carol Peletier adjusting to life in their new setting. "Felt like something had been lost, a chance to really have something" Dixon says in the short trailer. McBride's Carol adds in voiceover, "First you survive what happened to you, and then you start living again." But clearly, the characters haven't shaken off those survival instincts just yet, as fiery, zombie-filled battles are very much in their futures. "The road home is brutal and the fight to survive is far from over," reads the description of the new sneak peek, which you can watch below: AMC's official logline for season 3 of "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" reads: "Daryl and Carol continue their journey to return home and to the ones they love, but their path takes them farther astray, leading them through distant lands with ever-changing and unfamiliar conditions as they witness the various effects of the Walker apocalypse." And along with a peek into this season's Spain-set plotlines, the teaser also confirmed that the third installment, which is subtitled "The Book of Carol," will begin on Sunday, September 7 at 9 p.m. ET exclusively on AMC and AMC Plus, kicking off a six-episode run. Along with leads Reedus and McBride, Eduardo Noriega, Óscar Jaenada and Alexandra Masangkay are joining the cast as series regulars in season 3. Actors including Candela Saitta, Hugo Arbués, Greta Fernández, Gonzalo Bouza, Hada Nieto and Stephen Merchant will round out the ensemble. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. In addition to the season 3 teaser trailer, AMC also dropped some behind-the-scenes insights with a new on-set video, catching up not only with Jeffrey Dean Morgan to discuss "The Walking Dead: Dead City" season 2 but also Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride from Spain during filming of "Daryl Dixon" season 3: As for how their two characters end up in Spain, the "Daryl Dixon" team is tight-lipped, but showrunner David Zabel did previously tell The Hollywood Reporter that the nomadic nature of Daryl and Carol's survival helped "reinvigorate" the show season after season. 'We loved the reinvigoration we experienced going to France, and we wanted to continue doing that,' Zabel said. 'On a story level, the characters should not settle down. It should be a road show. They have to keep moving [to return home]. At the end of season two, they're going somewhere. We don't know exactly where, and it's not a direct line to the next place they go. But the idea is to keep the characters struggling and striving to get home and moving.' Tom's Guide will keep you updated on all things related to "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" season 3, including character details, plot points, new trailers and more.
