Watch the RuPaul's Drag Race season 13 queens hilariously read photos of their first time in drag

As the timeline of chaos in 2020 winds down and hope for 2021 dawns, EW has assembled the RuPaul's Drag Race season 13 cast for a queer summit on important issues heading into the new — ok, Ru — year: Harsh hairlines, protruding clavicles, and the sanctity of silky bubbles covering one's nipples.

Before season 13's premiere this Friday, the polished crop of 13 new queens vying for the title of America's Next Drag Superstar gathered to open the library one last time this year — all in the name of hilariously reading photos of each other's first-ever drag lewks.

From Tamisha Iman's vintage snapshots at a 1992 pageant to the America's Next Top Model audition photo shot by Kahmora Hall — who spends most of EW's video splashing in and out of frame from her bathtub — watch the new cast of queens read each other's first drag photos above, and tune in to the RuPaul's Drag Race season 13 premiere Friday at 8 p.m. on VH1, MTV, MTV2, Logo, Pop TV, and The CW. Read on for a summary of the best quotes from the clip.

“The girls knew that I was a trained dancer because I’d already danced for all the girls in the pageants, then I started to do drag… I never had a drag family, I never had a sisterhood, so I had to figure out everything myself. I never had any help!” — Elliott with 2 Ts

“This picture is literally what 2020 would look like [as a queen].” — Tina Burner

“Living and breathing proof that it does in fact get better.” — Joey Jay

“I was a cha-cha girl then and I’m a cha-cha girl now… I was serving a little bit of Tyra Banks in the forehead…. I really thought I was that girl thinking she couldn’t wear actual wigs with actual hairlines, wear a few bundles of a ponytail and call it a day. [I feel like] everything in this JOANN Fabric's stoned amazon bodysuit!” — Denali

“This is my dream hairline in or out of drag, mama.” — Rosé

“Kahmora is wearing no makeup here, and it still took her four hours to put this on.” — Rosé

“It’s a Top Model polaroid picture!” — Elliott with 2 Ts and Olivia Lux

“This was around season 7, so if you notice, those are the Pearl eyebrows and the Trixie Mattel contour. It’s not my first time in drag, but it’s the first time [in drag] after I shaved my face, because I was a bearded queen when I first started!” — Kandy Muse

“The Muppets really do take Manhattan! You look gorgeous baby.” — Tina Burner

This is literally my entrance look, so f---ing work, bitch!” — Rosé

“I just imagine the conversation, let me get a picture: ‘Where should we take [the photo]?’ Oh, I’m going to stand right by the cornhole.” — Joey Jay

“Video vixen! Ebony magazine cover!” — Kandy Muse

“She’s ready to log on to Grindr and catfish the rest of the night away.” — Denali

“That was my absolute first time in drag. That dress was a size small and didn’t fit, so I had to string up ribbon in the back to make it work.” — Olivia Lux

“F--- you, Olivia!” — Symone

“Olivia was like, ‘Find a Snuggie and make it fashion.” — Tina Burner

*exits frame* — Kahmora Hall

“She’s going to the bar to pick up a gentleman in this!” — Symone

“She’s going to murder a gentleman!” — Tina Burner

“At least you matched your foundation correctly to your chest!” — Kandy Muse

“It’s a blocked brow over some oatmeal, honey.” — Symone

“I wasn’t even born yet.” — Gottmik

“You’re still doing it, it’s not that different!” — Rosé

“I just want to point out that you look stunning here, and for all them years in between, you still look stunning. Black don’t crack, I’m sorry. If ya’ll want to prove that black don’t crack…” — Olivia Lux

“If you zoom in, I have one eyelash left on. We were going from a party [themed to] the Real Housewives of Mt. Olympus, [we were] just stupid making our own party. You couldn’t tell me that I wasn’t c--t! I want some body shimmer on and some lashes!” — Tina Burner

“This is by the snack table at Drag Race.” — Gottmik
