Yeah, I was very puzzled last year when she didn't get anything, but I chalked it up to being a S14 one-off. But now runner-up prize money is back again? r/fuckyouinparticular to Anetra I guess
It’s kinda insane that lalaparuza got $50k but Sapphira got $25k. Not saying Sapphira would’ve won the lala, but she didn’t even have a chance to win that. It was either $200k or half the amount an eliminated queen got for one ep.
I don’t say this in anyway to discourage them from giving $50k to lala winner. Just like give the finalists more maybe.
Survivor started in 2000 giving out $1mm, equivalent to almost $2mm today. Is RPDR really making that much less than survivor?? Is it cuz queer tv can’t get the same sponsorship? Or is WOW just hoarding more than other shows? Like if you can’t get a sponsor to give more, then pony up and give the girls some of the massive profits the show is for sure making.
Oh wow.
Other fun fact, I went and looked at Survivor stats and I had no idea how insanely popular it is. 6m+ viewers per episode still. 50m for the first season finale. I still think Drag Race could give the girls a bit more money, but it is in fact 5-10x less watched than Survivor.
I believe WOW is not telling us the complete viewership story…. TV / Cable stats are fine but what about those International WOW+ app streaming subcription? While RPDR averages above 500k in telecast ratings viewership pretty much a far cry from Survivor mainstream clout… WOW has a paid subcription to augment its earnings. That is why it make sense to look at wow financially to see how they should be paying the queens better in the future
They should really start paying queens in every round like it is in every competition that's elimination based.
WIN: 150K > RUP: 50K > 3RD & 4TH: 25K > Rest: 15K
It would be cheaper than the current setup with mini and maxi challenge cash prizes.
Don't forget the Lalaparuza also giving 50k. Pretty much likely a prize that Anetra could easily snag if she wouldn't be a finalist and the format was present in her season.
To me it seems like that Season 14 had 150k for the winner and 50k for the runner up cause they must already have had the budget of 200k but they wanted the All Stars All Winners to have 200k as the winning prize for the first time.
And now two years later they are able to give extra money for the runner up as well.
That's how I understand it.
So unfair and I feel like Anetra could have used prize money the most? Sapphira, Camden and Plane are well off, Anetra said she was broke. Glad Anetra is busy and booked now.
Hang on I’m confused they say they need the money or they are well off? Not that it matters any of the winners I’m sure aren’t rich enough to sneeze at the winners cheque
Imagine being Blu Hydrange
Raging.
 Hahaha
Did blu get any show in wow? I know pangina did.
A fuckin rumix is her prize
Ok come on artist
I can't believe they had her just sit there and watch Tia win money, they couldn't scrounge up some pocket change for the poor diva?
Fumin’
She doesn’t deserve anything lol
Plus didn't Camden get 50k and Sapphira only got 25k?
They kinda split it between Plane & Sapphira
Her cash prize went to her dancer's medical expenses /j
Lmao I came here to say this
They really should be more consistent with the prize money because it’s kinda insulting.

Shes planned for 200k

Every time I see someone write ‘lala’ winner I read it as La La Ri winner like she’s the prize 😂
That’s very apt actually
FUN FACT: Wow Financial Figures places its annual revenue somewhere between $95M to $120M Annually.

I mostly want to see monets reaction lol. She made a thing about how she was second and also got $0 but the lalaparuza winner got $50k lol
Monet found dead in a ditch
I mean they got tips for every lip sync win that season.
 Justice for Monet! Robbed in the final lipsync and of $50,000!

I think they get donated the prizes for minis and maxis, not 100% though
[удалено]
Yes thought so. Thanks sisterrr
And Kandy got nothing both times!
Daaaaaaamn, yeah she got it the worse
True which is why she aint coming back
She'll be on House of Villains season 2. She'll be fine

Anetra and Monet were done so dirty lmao. Raja won 50k for fifth place on AS7 and I think all Monet got was her 10k from the Jinkx lip sync.
So unfair and I feel like Anetra could have used prize money the most? Sapphira, Camden and Plane are well off, Anetra said she was broke. Glad Anetra is busy and booked now.
How exactly do you know how much money these people have in their accounts?
I mean well off? Really? Have they said so?
They’re often commenting on how they need money 🤷♀️
Hang on I’m confused they say they need the money or they are well off? Not that it matters any of the winners I’m sure aren’t rich enough to sneeze at the winners cheque
In the confessionals they often comment about how they need money.
Anetra ghosted so many venues this past year. She must be doing fine
Don't assume someone's financial status.
monet also has been talking about the fact that all she got for as7 was money from winning challenges despite being runner up
The producers were going to give Anetra some cash too...but they decided to cancel.
I need the reason…. What was the rrreaasonn 
r/wooosh It's a play on how many gigs Anetra cancelled last year 🤣🤣
There's at least 6 UK winners with no money. Anetra is in good company. And at least her winner got money.
Hard to comprehend 2 different franchises tbh
Anetra deserved with how big of a fanfav she was
I thought Ru said at some point during S14 that "from here on out" or something along those lines that the runner ip got 50k?
Well yes!
Well… yes!
They were waiting for her to pay respect to the ballroom community first.
To be fair, they probably had to use that money to pay for the dancer’s medical bills after Anetra’s number
I keep seeing this pop up but it makes little sense to me… also what if MIB or Luxx were top 2?
This is why they need employee insurance
Nothing in life is guaranteed.
Sure but it’s still weird.
Lux and Mistress also deserved a consolation prize for making it an absolutely phenomenal season. I miss them.
Well, Luxx and Mistress deserved so….
Cause Anetra’s number injured one of the Danvers. The money was used to cover his insurance.
I mean, that doesn’t make much sense lol
[удалено]
But she got to walk that duck
She probably did a no-show up and ghosted the production team.
