'RuPaul's Drag Race: Vegas Revue' premiered last week and as promised, the six queens — Yvie Oddly, Asia O’Hara, Derrick Barry, Kameron Michaels, Naomi Smalls and Vanessa Vanjie Mateo — brought the drama with them and how. This VH1-backed show didn't waste much to establish that it's going to be a rollercoaster and completely opposite of what 'RuPaul's Drag Race' is known and loved for. This is going reality TV to the core with oodles of BTS drama and relationship stories. 

In tonight's episode of the show, we see Nebraska Thunderfuck being attacked by the queens and a lot of it came from a place of lingering angst from a past event. Nebraska is one of Derrick's partners from the long-term 'trinogomous' relationship she has been in.

Previously, when Nebraska attended a get-together of sorts, she openly shaded Naomi with regard to one of her past Snatch Game performances, which didn't go down well with her. "I am going to see myself out," Naomi said. However, this move was not surprising because it had been an exhausting evening for Naomi with Derrick joining Nebraska in calling her out. 

Derrick knows it's hard to have Nebraska and Naomi in a room. They are going to have a hard time being civil around each other. Despite, the bitter equation, Derrick invited Nebraska for drinks with the girls at the casino. In the preview, we see a some ladies attacking Nebraska, asking why she was there. Did Derrick do this to put Naomi off intentionally? Derrick and Naomi don't get along ever since they appeared onscreen for 'RuPaul's Drag Race' and this could be Derrick's way of stirring the pot even further. But, he must know that this move may not be appreciated by the rest of the crew. 

Meanwhile, fans are hating on Derrick. "Gawd Britney, I mean Derrick, making #DragRaceVegas about herself is pathetic. Oops she failed at it again. Tired storyline! Next," a fan commented. 



 

Another shared: "Nebraska at a gig? Lmfao yeah ok sis. Also Derrick this is not a reality show about your life girl #DragRaceVegas #RuPaulsDragRaceVegasRevue."



 

"Ah, so it is Nebraska TF that’s causing drama where there shouldn’t be any... Was that Coco Montrese at Derrick’s party? #DragRaceVegas," a user tweeted. "I guess Nebraska is done auditioning for #DragRace and is just going to stand next to Derrick bringing up stuff that's five years old now...#DragRaceVegas," a fan shared.
