A storm of rumors swirled around Discord Addams even before her name appeared on the cast list for RuPaul’s Drag Race season 18. Whispers spread through fan circles, alleging a disqualification stemming from on-set conflict and past behavior.
The speculation intensified when a years-old post from Drag Race winner Shea Couleé resurfaced, hinting at a tense relationship. The message, now vanished from the platform, reportedly declared “on sight” if she encountered Discord. This fueled the narrative of a brewing feud and potential misconduct.
When the official cast announcement arrived, fans were stunned to see Discord Addams included amongst the fourteen hopefuls. The rumors, however, refused to dissipate, clinging to the performer like a shadow.
Now, Discord Addams has directly addressed the swirling accusations in a recent interview. She dismissed the claims of disqualification as entirely fabricated, offering a playful yet firm denial.
The conversation turned to her time in Chicago, Shea Couleé’s hometown, and a lighthearted jab at the city’s gloomy weather. When pressed about the resurfaced post, Discord responded with a knowing ambiguity, suggesting a desire to unravel the truth.
“Not really…” she admitted with a coy smile, describing the situation as “kind of just fun” that was twisted by the internet into a narrative of her being a terrible person. The intensity of the online reaction clearly surprised her.
She then playfully leaned into the rumors, sarcastically recounting a fictional scenario of RuPaul discovering the tweet and immediately disqualifying her as a “terrible racist.” It was a deliberate attempt to dismantle the narrative with humor.
Discord clarified that the stories of a disqualification – and even a physical altercation over an eyelash curler – were simply untrue, all stemming from the initial online post. She emphasized the absurdity of the escalating rumors.
Despite the online drama, Discord confirmed she and Shea Couleé are, in fact, friends. She even admitted to not knowing if the original post was authentic, adding another layer of mystery to the situation.
Season 18 promises a dynamic competition, featuring a diverse cast including family members of previous stars. The queens will immediately face a challenge: creating stunning looks from discarded materials.
The new season is set to premiere, bringing with it a fresh wave of talent and, undoubtedly, more captivating drama. Discord Addams is ready to bring her unique energy to the stage, regardless of the rumors that preceded her.
