    Benjamin Paré: Survivor Québec’s Gay Villain

    Who should win Canada’s Drag Race All Stars? And what does a Survivor Québec player think of the new All Stars format? 👀 This week on THYRST, Aneal sits down with Benjamin Parry, gay Montreal creator, flight attendant and Survivor Québec contestant, for a chaotic deep dive into Canadian reality TV, drag, dating and queer life in Montreal. Benjamin takes us behind the scenes of Survivor Québec, from applying four times to finally getting cast, navigating alliances, embracing his villain edit and discovering just how quickly the game can change. Then, we get into Canada’s Drag Race All Stars: why Benjamin thinks the format makes it easier to eliminate strong queens, his case for Sammy Landry and Aurora Matrix, and our predictions for who could take the crown. We also talk about the rise of Canadian drag queens as mainstream celebrities, international Drag Race franchises, queer nightlife, Montreal Pride and whether dating apps have broken gay dating. Benjamin even compares dating apps to a casino, where constantly searching for the next jackpot can make it harder to recognize something real when you actually find it. And, of course, Benjamin enters the 30 Second Tantrum to deliver his Pride hot take: less circuit music, more Britney and Gaga. In this episode: Canada’s Drag Race All Stars • Survivor Québec • Sammy Landry • Aurora Matrix • Canadian Drag Race • Montreal Pride • gay dating • queer nightlife • LGBTQ+ creators • Canadian reality TV • Montreal gay culture
