The Poinbankstars of RuPaul’s Drag Race did not sashay away after losing at the 2024 Emmys.
Several of the cast members of the hit reality competition series addressed one reporter’s claims that they left the annual awards show—cohosted by Dan Levy and Eugene Levy—early after losing out to the show The Traitors in the Outstanding Reality Competition Series category for the first time.
“It was a commercial break and the girls wanted a drink,” Queen Plane Jane replied to THR’s Chris Gardner on X. “We all stayed until the end of the ceremony. Take your pseudo journalism elsewhere.”
Fellow star Amanda Tori Meating also commented, writing, “It was a commercial break are we allowed to go piss girl.”
Gardner later confirmed that the cast was still in attendance at the event, though he did not take down his initial tweet.
As for Traitors, it was a big night for the series, after host Alan Cumming already scooped up an Emmy win for Outstanding Host For A Reality Or Reality Competition Program at the Creative Arts Emmys.
"We are so grateful because we are a new show,” Alan said while accepting the award. “And you guys, you know when you like something, you tend to stick to it, which is a good quality, but we appreciate it all the more.”
"I also want to thank Scotland, I owe it everything and it's such a beautiful costar,” he added. "I also want to thank Holland, because I don't think we thank Holland enough, because so many of these shows, like The Traitors, were first made up in Holland, and they obviously have something in the water, so let's find it, let's drink it and all of America's problems will be solved.”
On the red carpet, Alan teased the hit series’ upcoming season three.
"It's brutal," Alan exclusively told Laverne Cox on Live From E!: Emmys. "Big time brutal—and what I love about this is that some of the people, like the biggest set of stars in it, go out really quickly."
As he put it, "And what happens on this, I can't really say, of course, but it's a bloodbath, and then it gets really lovely."
