#legendary #ballroom #voguing - บันเทิง
"For me it was regular, for the regular people ( Y'all) it's fucking phenomenal " this was thr funniest thing all season
she read the contestants and the whole damn audience in one breathe.
@@SalvagedCreativity I love how Dominique kept the same standards for this show as a real life ball. Part of the expectation with a show that’s now available for mainstream audiences is for it to be viewed through what is new or shocking to them, but she made it clear that she wasn’t gonna sacrifice authenticity for commercial gain and that’s real.
@@ii954 RIght and people think she was over the top and doing too much too like... Miss thing you're gonna hate actual ballroom places then because they're much more extra than this no tea no shade.
@@SpecificValio right ??? and its such good tv, like why do people hate good tv 😭😭😭😭
@@patchoulini NO FR I was gagged when she said that and living for it! She is ballroom! Unlike "Law" Roach... 🫣🍵
"Y'all are competing for $100,000. Don't come with a $50 performance."
That line from Law Roach lives rent free in my head.
Let's play Annie up mm222
Dominique was so unhinged and hilarious. I can't wait for her to be back
I know it was an act but it was too much
@@RNCHFND Yeah lmao I just with her top was properly fitted so she didn't look like a clown while she wanted to be the icon
@@RNCHFND ya she was trash
SHE WAS AN ICON!!!!!@@ScoutOnly
I really miss when the audience was this real and excited, they even dressed for the theme each function
I remember watching this during the lockdown, it was such a surreal experience. I can't express how much love i have for this show that helped me in a difficult time
💗💗
same!
Same, I gagged every single time
Every episode felt like a dream to me 😳
Same here
same.. brought LIFE to a shitty situation. Love this show
Packrat’s face after honey’s “YOUR MAKEUP LOOKS NASTY” never gets old 😭
😂😂
The voice tho 🤣🤣
The editing decision to show the girls getting read rather than Honey speaking 😂
we took season 1 for granted huh. We didn't know this was gonna be the best season out of the three
You ain’t neva lied
I've noticed that when ever Law has a bowl cut he gets nastyyyyyy
😂😂😂😂
he’s mad he has to look like that
Whenever Law wears a bowl cut It’s giving very much “will where are you?” 😂😂😂
That body challenge was a bisexual’s wet dream. And for good reason.
Jameela catching stray bullets, LITERALLY, will always crack me up lmaooo
Jazzul getting cut during that body category literally killed me. I was sitting there like 😐
Right ?!
Jazzul was it for me! Thicc snacc realness!
THAT BATTLE BETWEEN SHORTY AND MAKAYLAH IS STILL THE MOST LEGENDARY THING EVER TO HIT THE FLOOR! MAKAYLAH SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN HER OWN TROPHY!!!!!
Packrat and Megan moment is so emotional yet powerful especially for women who's People Of Colors...
I usually find it corny when people always claim the first season is always the best cause “that’s when it all started” but for Legendary that’s basically the case. S1 was just magical and fun. However, I think the format change is basically what hurt S2 and S3, S1 was fun because not every episode had a performance, we had runway episodes, category episodes and performance episodes so it made everything an even level playing ground, making it more unpredictable and also showcase each house member’s strength. S2 and S3’s point system ended up taking away a lot of that as every episode has a performance with a 5 minute category for an extra 5 points so there’s not much change or variety which as result doesn’t highlight each member at all as the main focus now are performances.
And the tea is served
Seeing this compilation makes me remember why I loved this show so much and it’s so weird seeing that change now.
Idk I’ve always preferred season 2 just because they let Dashaun actually host - Jameela’s cringey self imposed lead judge role in S1 made parts of it so hard to watch 💀
@@zenobianone the tiscis being eliminated was the end of the superiority for that season
Agreed+
the cast was just phenomenal...
Talent! Talent all over the place! 🤩
There should be a “why legendary s2 is iconic” and just play every performance by the house of Tisci, then end the video
It’s Tisci duh!
FACTS ARE FACTS
TISCI WAS ROBBED
Still can't get over Jazzul in that body category 🥵🥵🥵🥵
Stil don’t know why he was chopped
@@erikpope559 Law was probably pressed 'cause Jazzul didn't reply his messages 👀👀
I MEAN! THAT WAS V CUTE!
@@WellingtonOliveira_well_author KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKK PQP
@@erikpope559Law had to just be pissy because not only was he SEXXXY he was giving pure body and face. I was BLUSHING when I saw it for the first time
A little subtle change is that I remember in season 1, tons of the audience would dress up for the theme of the episode. I don't really see that in S3
True!
What you mean? Season 3, you can clearly see they dress up for the theme every ball. It might not be as in your face because the audience is more hidden in the current season due to the staging, whereas the audience in season 1 was more visible
Its so exciting to see males who dance in a 'feminine" way be celebrated for being their authentic self. For so long gay men have had to try to hide that part of themselves, and try to be 'masculine', this can inspire young LGBT people to be who they are.
Its so saytisfying seeing dancer like this being adored.
Its not just "males" or "gay men" in fact categorising them in such boxes completely defeats the purpose but i do understand how that could be empowering to a self-identifying cisgender gay men, its not that its an art form where we express true masculinity but a form where we actively reject and rebel against masculinity we are not "gay men", we are a purely non conforming entities who transcends the limitations and norms of heteronormativaty and the gender binary. So yeah, some of these "gay men" are not men at all and some of us dont use the label "gay" and much prefer to identify as "queer"
@@superego7533 you speak for all of Ballroom? It is empowering for a Cis person to see *some* of the performers balance the concept of being cis and not playing by the rules of gender expression. A bitch can act fem, masc, dress or look whatever they want and change it on a dime but their gender not needing to change to break from conformity is empowerment.
@@superego7533 and some of us don't prefer the slur 'queer' and use 'gay' - don't take random comments so personally lol
@lar ksjsk I think they are talking about ballroom becoming mainstream, or just more known even among queer people.
@lar ksjsk I believe there talking about it being more mainstream and on different social platforms like tv, TH-cam and so on. Yes ballroom has been around for some time but for a while it was hidden, not any more though is the point I think they’re making
Season 1 brought us the infamous 3 fab mice category where the judge went chop crazy lol
Man I wish the future seasons had more categories
the streets are saying the 3 fab mice category is returning! So exciting!
The thing that has annoyed me the most about the recent season is the lack of categories. I prefer the category battles to the group performances. I want iconic moments like the hero vs villain hands performance and the "get over here" snatch.
Season 1 really set the bar high
The current season just meh
But the judges the current season bringing the drama that we deserve hehe
Facts 🤭🤭
They need to bring Dominique again bc she's drama!
From some season 3 trailers i think she will be coming back but tbh i would love for her to be permanent judge
They better miss Dominique aka miss tyra allure is an icon in the ballroom scene
I'd rather have her as the permanent judge. I think she has the knowledge and experience of ballroom
Yes I rather have her then law 🥴.
@@vincentvillasenor9678 AMEN
8:12 is still the most iconic thing to come from this show
and now look at Lolita on S3 gagging the children w/ back to back sickening performances
i was so excited when i saw that the audience was getting back in season 3 cause i thought it was really missing in season 2, but they are not giving like the season 1 audience was giving. changing location of filming was a mistake. the s1 audience was truly ballroom audience, in s3 they're just there standing and clapping 🙄
Its probably bc season 2 was *technically* rigged. Balenciaga was contractually pushed to the very end. Honey's contract said that she would only appear on the show if she was guaranteed to make it to the end.
@@sh0nen_protag wait i'm lost, the location change was because of balenciaga?
@@sh0nen_protag oh, that's some tea! 👀👀👀👀
I live near LA and I think people didn’t show up because most people did not meet vaccine requirements. I remember when they released tickets for audiences and the requirements said you needed all booster shots by January 2022 and filming was in March I believe. If you see LA today most neighborhoods feel like ghost towns still, even a lot of gay bars did not make and have been foreclosed due to the pandemic. . If we get season 4 in 2024 I think the audience will be much better. This year felt like test run back to normalcy after COVID.
Gross not season 4 in 2024!!! I would die.. I meant *2023*
When Dominique Says " FOR THE REGULAR PEOPLE (looks at audiences) Y'ALL!"
i burst out laughin.🤣🤣
it's so funny and shady at the same time.
Erika ate her damn heel with that "that's why we shouldn't be battlin' virgins, I AM legendary" rant when she lost and had to chop Gucci using Makayla, that episode was so much!
The fact that Honey and Lolita have been shining lights in the seasons they got on... Legendary season one energy.
But it does suck that as Leiomy's garments and hair got better we got less of her performing on the runway
Thank you for including Jazzul walking body. I will never recover from it. 🥵
Jazzul had no business getting chopped. Law was hating hard.
Jazzul didn’t have to be that fine, LAWD!
waiting for smone to say it
“I AM BALLROOM” SUCH an iconic moment
Lanvin saying every 5 seconds Balmain is a virgin and losing to them in the final round... I lived xD Balmain, Ninja, and Lanvin were amazing this season
I don't want to take anything away from the casts of Season 2 and 3 because the talent is there, the passion is there, and the performances were definitely there! The only real issue with the later seasons is the production - it's become over-produced to the point where it's not doing the Houses justice! The stage is just too big (wide and long), the lights and effects are too much, and the judges are too far away to be connected to the performances!
I love to see Ballroom being highlighted and elevated properly, but there is a line where it becomes style over substance, and the battles especially don't have the same feeling of grit and authenticity as they did in Season 1, and I think that's because of all the extra production which is taking away from the talent, which is there!
You tell them! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
While I definitely agree that production takes a role (yes! Why are the judges so far away?!), I believe the hunger from season 3ms contestants aren’t there. Season 1 had something to prove out the gate so the creativity and tenacity was there.
I also wish to see more judges that have a connection with ballroom like Teyana Taylor, FKA Twigs..
Mother Shannon talked about this last season. The all white production and lack of ballroom representation besides the talent is what’s holding this show back. A lot of these houses do amazing in the real ballroom scene but how are you going to let producers pick people from completely different chapters in a house that they never met each other but because they’re good for TV that’s the selection that’s made not necessarily emphasis on the cohesion or bond of the groups
@@maxbaltz2490 oh wow. So you’re saying the members of the house aren’t necessarily from the same city/region house. So they’re mixing LA/NY girls of the same house?
@@breskiboo Yep! Production decides the houses they'd like to choose from, and then individual houses and chapters under that overall house must apply to be on the show, however, production decides each house member so you can end up with a team with members from different chapters who may know of each other but don't often hang out in the same circles.
Just recently watched S1. All I want to say is "that mummy serving you Old Way!" (5:56) has haunted me ever since. I say it when I'm in the store. I say it alone in my room. I don't know if I'll ever escape it.
still the best season ! the other seasons just lacked the authenticity of s1, i also feel production also messed up w. the cast moments, we were shown alot more into the lives of each house members while the newer seasons i just didn’t feel invested enough to root for them
THIS!
Because season 1 was the only season that let them cast their own houses. Producers not from ballroom don’t know who to look for and season 2 was amazing but Covid restrictions didn’t allow them to interact with other houses. I think an All stars or a really amazing season 4 will help this franchise. I don’t want to say because of one not stellar season that the franchise needs saving. I think they have proved that their formula has worked not perfectly but entertainment wise yes
@@maxbaltz2490 even if they did let them cast their own houses, that still wouldn’t matter if they’re not showcased. s1 had like an untucked like scenes where the house members would sit and talk to eachother and it allowed us to get to know them individually. The performances also don’t feel as grand either
yeah we all get that its a new season and they're trying out new things but i wish that they don't get rid of the things that make it great. that's why rewatching season one is still as impactful
How this wasn’t bigger than drag race popularity is crazzy
Homophobia 👀
Lolita’s cape SNATCH being the most rewated needs to have a reward🤩🤩
they should bring back the merged houses challenge, it can open up such amazing possibilities
Absolutely!
Hated that challenge honestly. So weird and confusing and pointless
That absolutely GAGGED ME- It did give a chance for houses to work together and bring themselves to the top. Especially with the fact that it made me even more gagged with the results at the end of the episode.
9:57 It NEVER ceases to amaze me. Michaela aka SpiderB!tc# is a beast!
🤣🤣 When Tamar said: "Spider B you showed out tonight!"😭😭😭😭
Battle with House of Ebony vs House of Lanvin will forever be in my head rent free along with the House of Ninja's Grand March
I’m 3 years late but I completely agree. Also I don’t ever cry while watching shows but the house of ebony elimination got me BAWLING
When Jazzul is serving body and Twilight screams in awe... I identify spiritually with that shout.
I like that we are all fans of Jazzul here. The only right choice.
It was Dr. Strange and Red Skull *REALNESS!!* Serving the Children a full balanced meal for me.
Packrat winning body!!!!! & her & megs moment brings me to tears every single time I see it. As a thicker girl It just warms my soul 😭😭😭
I will NEVER forgive Law for chopping Jazzul on the body category
that emotional moment with megan makes me cry lmaoo
that McKayla-Shortie battleeeee sooo fireeee!!
They need Dominique as a permanent judge.
I love that in Season 1 other categories had equal weight to the performances. I feel like that was lost in Season 2 (and continued with Season 3) when the other categories are more an afterthought as a way to earn extra points. As someone not in ballroom I felt like seeing the other categories allowed me to learn much more and made it different from every other dance competition show. Season 2 had so many great, creative houses but you could feel how production was pushing for Legendary to just become more or a dance competition show instead of what it could be.
0:04 tell me why I sometimes I walk into a room saying I’m talking about lei-lei-lei lei flipping my nonexistent wig 😂
7:31 imma tell my kids this is Dr Strange vouging for his life 🤣🤣
Fair enough 😅
The fact that someone chopped jazzul during body I will never understand
Let’s take a moment to thank House of Lanvin for carrying that Season.
No shade, but Leiomy and Deshaun's Perfirmance was the best of the season. I love this show with all my heart and soul. Amazing how much it has evolved in just 3 seasons. So Fucking Superb.
watching this... I get why Leiomy was a bit bored on the season 3 performances and I get why I got lazy watching the next epsidoes of it too TT compared to season 1 that I finished in 1 sitting
And that's the tea! 👀
I miss Legendary so bad!!
I remember gasping when Michaela climbed that wall
Chills
That, “Get over here” move, is one of the most iconic things ever televised for gay culture. It don’t get more *unt that that.
I will never get over the jazzul chop he was giving body and the little wheat in the mouth was the final straw for me
Also how the fuck did makayla climb up that fucking wall I need to know
Father Jamari Balmain really does something to me
I miss the old stage and the crowd in the audience. S2 and 3 feel a lot colder and distant.
It still amuses me how someone took "3 Fab Mice" literally, like actually
This will forever be the best season of Legendary! The people on now are great but a lot of them aren't from the ballroom they're just amazing dancers. Season 1 was ballroom!
Jazzul shouldn’t of got chopped for the body category 🫠 I wanted that teddy bear !!
The fact that Law chopping Jazzul for body when he was doing THAT wasn't even the worst thing he did in this season...
The best moments are when two performers are duking it out and after their stunning performance they show their competitors an overwhelming amount of love.
Ballroom is about the show, but also the love. It warms my heart to see incredible talents celebrating each other 😭
Jazzul blew my hair back with that body walk. Yee-haw indeed he can get it.
Something about ballroom culture just tears me up every time
I still love the show for sure but nothing can touch this season. the houses, the audience, the crowd, the dramatics, the VOGUING
Jazzul Escada, DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN. OMG I can't breathe
Season 1 had phenomenal performances and law is extra as always! Love it!
I wish I saw more of the ninja ladies. I really do think a couple of them got chopped when they shouldn’t have. Pain.
the guy with the shiny stoned dress is a frequent ballroom audience. i swear i see him everywhere in ballroom pages in instagram giving all the face and reaction
I was really hoping that season 3 would give us the passion and intensity of season 1 and the cleanliness and creativity of season 2 😔
This is my fantasy
Jazzul Escada is everythingggg
the get over here always gets me like it doesn’t matter how much times i watch it im always gaged😭😭😭
HBO if you don't bring this show back, I'll rip your ribs.
I love how during the battles, if the performer runs at the house they just know what they finna do like yep now we queen chair flippin them back onto the catwalk!
Like its choreographed and I knowww its not, I was a battle hip hop dancer and those moments are organic and exhilaratin!!!!!
UGGGHHH BALLROOM YOU SAVED MY HEART!
Special shoutouts to Carlos 😭🫀 such a Legend in the dance world in general!!!
fab show with audience energy and all talent
We never gettin another house like Ninja 😵💫😵💫😵💫
“I love you jeter… I love you too makayla” 🥺
for the regular people.............y'all
IM SO FCKING MAD THAT HBO DECIDED TO REMOVE LEGENDARY CAUSE I REALLY WANTED TO WATCH IT WHEN I DISCOVERED THIS VIDEO...
Heyyyy diego legoo my eggoooo HAS ME IN TEARSSSSS
Ok but Jazzul was the only reason I was hooked on season one! 🥵😮💨🥵
I've only seen the 1st season in full (only season that's here in the UK) but I've seen clips of the others and none of them compare to my love of 1st. Lanvin, Balmain, Ninja, Escada etc. They were all so good
jameela waiting for a high five from law roach at 8:30 made me crack up
Gay culture is such a beautiful, colorful and energetic thing. It’s just incredible to see the creativity and passion the gay community has for everything they do. Specially the black and Latinos
I love Leiomy's reactions LMAOOO
After watching S3 recently, I appreciate the huge talent in S1 even more. S1 was another level.
this compilation is everythinggg bless you for making it!
When Ms thing jumped off the way into a dip got me my lifeeee
There were so many off the cuff funny and organic moments from this season. 😂 Ngl some of the houses from s3 feels like folks that just wanted to be on tv lol
For me this video missed one very important thing being Makayla saying “can I get my heels”
I literally just binged the whole first season yday cause I didn’t know this show existed till recently and…IT GAVE WHAT IT NEEDED TO GIVE ✨✨
i need daddy jazzul back on my tv fr fr
DragRace could NEVAAAA this just blew my mind 🤯 never heard of this show before but YALL GOT ME!!
Never forget what they took from us
I stg I have never been more attracted to someone than jazzul 🥴🥴
Ouu i miss house Ninja sm like fr
They slay! 🤩
Season 2 and 3 were heavily edited. I miss the underground vibes of season 1.
