10 of the Best Memes That Made 'RuPaul's Drag Race' Herstory

What would the internet even be without some of these iconic, and hilarious, 'Drag Race' memes!?!?

​In 15 years, RuPaul’s Drag Race has given us some of the most iconic and hilarious memes in reality TV herstory. From dramatic scenes to shade-throwing remarks to unforgettable catchphrases, the queens of Drag Race have given us a lot of meme-able moments that we love to share all over the internet.

While recent seasons have definitely contributed to the overall Drag Race meme canon, there’s no denying that the first decade of the show was jam-packed with even more of these moments that we’re still referencing and obsessing over. Nonetheless, let’s take a trip down memory lane to remember some of the best memes that have been brought to life in the Drag Race franchise.

Scroll through to check out 10 memes that made herstory on RuPaul’s Drag Race!

‘Not today, satan. Not today.’

Bianca Del Rio was the queen of throwing shade on Drag Race season six, but nothing was more iconic than her line delivery of “Not today, Satan. Not today.” A classic, timeless meme!

I can’t wait to see how this turns out.’

Season five featured the “Black Swan: Why It Gotta Be Black?” challenge that featured a highly-anticipated collaboration between Alyssa Edwards and Coco Montrese dancing together on stage. Right before this maxi challenge started, Mama Ru uttered the sentence “I can’t wait to see how this turns out,” which entered the canon of best Drag Race memes of all time.

‘Miss Vanjie.’

Even though we already had a few examples of iconic exit lines on Drag Race, the bar was raised when Vanessa Vanjie Mateo was eliminated at the premiere of season 10 and walked backward while chanting “Miss Vanjie” three times.

‘I feel very attacked!’

All season long, Laganja Estranja felt attacked by her Drag Race costars. This entire drama culminated in a legendary Untucked moment where Estranja said, literally, “I feel very attacked!”

‘Do I have something on my face?’

We had seen queens fighting back against judges like Michelle Visage and Santino Rice in the past, but never had a contestant faced off against RuPaul like Pearl did in season seven. During a casual conversation in the werk room, Pearl and Ru engaged in a face-off that ended with Pearl asking, “Do I have something on my face?” The drama, mama!

‘You’re perfect, you’re beautiful, you look like Linda Evangelista, you’re a model.’

Aja was not entertained by the overwhelmingly positive critiques received by Valentina during an episode of Drag Race season nine, which led to her iconic delivery of the “You’re perfect, you’re beautiful, you look like Linda Evangelista, you’re a model” rant in one of the most iconic Untucked episodes of all time.

‘Back rolls!?’

In the fifth season of Drag Race, Alyssa Edwards was accused by Jade Jolie of having back rolls that were showing when she walked the runway. Edwards did not take the accusation well, and was completely mortified in a legendary confessional segment.

‘Facts are facts!’

Dealing with fake news has become a bigger and bigger issue in recent years. On Drag Race season 10, though, Mo Heart (then named Monique Heart) was already keeping things in check by introducing us to the timeless “facts are facts” motto.

‘Because I am what? Sickening!’

Mimi Imfurst accused Shangela of having a sugar daddy that helped her out during the third season of Drag Race. Not only did Shangela shut those claims down, but she also delivered an iconic speech that ended in the meme-able line, “Because I am what? Sickening!” Shangela then proceeded to throw a drink right on Imfurst’s face.

‘I’d like to keep it on, please.’

Valentina didn’t know the words to “Greedy” by Ariana Grande in order to lip sync, which prompted her to ask RuPaul to keep on her mask. But during this pre-lockdown era of Drag Race, keeping a mask on was simply not allowed… resulting in Valentina’s shocking elimination in season nine.
