RuPaul Vs. Tyra: Miss J Weighs In! Jaslene Loves Drag Queens! Duh.

MissJ

Last night, Oxygen hosted a NYC party for America's Next Top Model: Obsessed, a new Sunday night show that's a weekly mash-up of the series' craziest clips (or something like that).

Anyway, I stopped in and while I didn't get a chance to bend Tyra's ear (her bulldogish lady-publicist whooshed her by all of the reporters from the likes of Us Weekly, In Touch, the Enquirer and me), the uber-legendary ANTM judge/runway-coach Miss J Alexander did chat for a hot mo'.

Most importantly, since RuPaul claimed last week that she taught Tyra everything she knows, I wanted J's take on this tidbit of tiff-tempting trivia.

Quoth Miss J: "Well, everybody’s got a teacher. It goes from one drag queen to the next. Why not? I’m sure RuPaul taught her how to do her makeup and her wigs!"

When asked who'd win a supermodel walk-off between Tyra & Ru, Miss J was quick to answer: "RuPaul. He would bring a little extra something special."

Ouch... Ya think Mama Ty would condone such treason?

Tyra vs. RuPaul: Who truly owns the runway?

Then Miss J was asked how she planned to celebrate Drag History Month? "Drag History Month? That’s new to me… How about with a big ol’ wig and makeup." Sounds basic enough. And then finally Miss J offered her nominee for the most legendary drag queen of all-time: "Milton Berle. Him and Flip Wilson."

Wonder how would that sit with RuPaul, given his old feud with Uncle Miltie back in the day?

Jaslene: Raised by drag queens.

Anyway, ANTM Cycle 8 winner Jaslene Gonzalez isn't a drag queen (she swears) but she gives them props for making her who she is today. (Shocker!) She told me:

Drag queens are the ones who made me. I think every girl deserves and needs a gay or a drag queen best friend. They remind you how to be fierce. They’re so over the top! Sometimes women are so sheltered and reserved, but the queens bring it out in you, so I learned a lot about being a woman from drag queens! I’m such a fag hag!

Thanks, Jassy. We knew that already. And who does she think would win a walkoff between Tyra and Ru? "Tyra, of course. She’s the runway diva! She owns the runway. She’s a supermodel, so there’s no waaayyyyyy…"

Whatevs. My money's on Ru, children. But no matter... Check out more pics of the Top Model refugees and other sassy party guests below.

ANTM winners Dani and Jaslene attack a willing Nigel Barker. Hot mess threesome!

Joannie
Cycle 6's Joanie: When asked what she learned from Miss J, Joanie cracked: "How to be a pervert! He’s got the dirtiest mouth you ever heard! Get him off camera – he’s such a funny guy."

Nice lanky Heather was there. She was shocked to find that gays love her. "I went to Chicago Pride and was stopped on the street for hugs and photos every five steps. It took forever for me to get home."

MollieSue
Cycle 6's Mollie Sue said of drag queens: "Most people think I’m a boy so, I can relate. But I think drag queens influence anyone who wants to be fabulous. You see them looking more fabulous than you, and you’re a woman, you’re like, “I gotta show that girl up!”

TyraMouthErrrrr
Here's a pic of Tyra doing her press-line drive-by. She zoomed by to eat this guy's digi-recorder, and then off she went!

CrystalStewart
Miss USA Crystal Stewart put the sash in "sash-ay." When asked if she was inspired by drag queens, she cracked up: "Come on, I’m in pageants! There are drag queens everywhere! Between dressing, makeup and hair, I think they’ve taught me all that I know." Yes, indeedy.

ConnorPaolo
Gossip Girl's little resident gay Eric, known in real life as Connor Paolo, popped by the Top Model hen party. He dyed his hair all dark n stuff. Also, he's about 3 feet tall, just so ya know.

Jael
And Top Model's top mess Jael dropped in, with her boyfriend Ghost. And her panties. Thank God for her panties...

NickAdams
Out Broadway boy Nick Adams is gonna be in Guys & Dolls soon. You've also seen him on the cover of Instinct. And in A Chorus Line with Mari Lopez. And in 2Xist ads. (Schwing!)

SaleishaSaleisha-cover
Cycle 9 winner Saleisha was there too, looking good. But I think I liked her better when she had "Tootie" hair.

Speaking of Tootie... Ta-ta, y'all!
