Manila Luzon gets backlash for ‘shady’ AI meme about Drag Race All Stars winner Ginger Minj
'It isn't even funny'
People are not happy after Manila Luzon shared an AI meme of Ginger Minj, who won Drag Race All Stars. She’s been called “shady” for posting the outdated image of her fellow queen, with one person saying they “feel sick” over the amount of hate Ginger Minj gets.
The photo shared appeared to show RuPaul hugging a smiling Ginger Minj from behind amid people saying she was the favourite, leading to rumours that’s why she won the recent season of All Stars. And what makes it worse is Manila was previously a graphic designer.
Viewers immediately recognised the photo wasn’t real when they noticed the yellow tint, and people are now speaking up on the amount of hatred Ginger Minj is receiving, following the latest crowning. One person just asked: “Why are they even doing this?”
Someone added, “They know this will only affect Ginger and the hate she’s getting. The only queen who I see actively asking people to be kind to Ginger is Suzie Toot. I genuinely don’t get why!” Another said, “Manila wants those social media impressions.”
We need to shame queens into not using this AI slop when it isn’t even funny.

The weird thing is, Manila and Ginger Minj are meant to be friends, and have done multiple interviews together. Either way, Ginger Minj is now “letting the monsters eat themselves” amid backlash from viewers that she won the recent season of All Stars.
She recently told Out after her win: “I just don’t pay attention to the negativity. Why would I? If I had been crowned 10 years ago, that version of myself probably would have been completely embroiled in the entire mix of it.”
Ginger Minj then added: “But at the place that I am in my life now, and I fought so hard to get here… I’m not going to sacrifice any of my peace or my happiness for people who are just looking for an excuse to be miserable.”
Despite appearing to have shared the AI meme, Manila commented with clapping and crown emojis on her Ginger Minj’s recent post. One person wrote underneath her comment, “wow after the ai post now you come to congratulate her? So fake.”
