I don't think Rebecca or Bebe stand a chance against Nina. Nina, has not been shown to be bitchy or 'unladylike' in any way. She has the friendly/happy diva edit. I think given the sponsors and this is the first season, they want someone who everyone finds likable. Bebe and Rebecca have both been shown to have their nasty diva moments.

I actually think Chantal was the truest big drag star with her costumes and make up and attitude. But could anyone see her as a spokesqueen for MAC?

And also agree with whoever commented that Rebecca is more tranny than drag in alot of ways. I was schooled in the levels of male to female levels some years ago by a very beautiful 'tranny'.

Crossdressers-straight men who like wearing women's clothes

Female impersonator-Man who dresses specifically to look like someone famous (Cher,Marilyn, Liza etc...)
Drag queens-Men dressing as women with over the top make up and costume, usually done for performance (hostess,dance, lipsync or singing)
Tranny-(formerly transvestite)-A man who dresses/acts to pass as a woman, usually done for special occasions. Can be 100% undetectable to the straight male eye (much to their surprise!)

Transexual-(pre-op)living their lives, and expressing themselves as the opposite sex. Some with added hormonal or surgeries to change their appearance.
Transgendered-post-op changing of sexual organ

I do believe that their has always been the component of female impersonation and transvestitism in drag, and it is accepted as part of drag now. Rebecca seems to me to be more of a tranny who performs. Although one could argue so is RuPaul, but when RuPaul gained notariety, there were no 6ft+ blonde haired, black women, and because she was more caricature than true female.
