International RuPaul’s Drag Race fans have notice something a little different about the Portuguese translation of the hit reality series.
RuPaul’s iconic line, ‘Sashay Away’, spoken to contestants when it’s their time to leave the show, has a very different vibe in the European language.
Phi_lipi of Twitter posted a screen capture of the newly translated program with subtitles, which instead of ‘Sashay Away’ reads “Bye, go home, no one loves you.”

While RuPaul is known for showing tough love to the competing queens, this is of course not what she says in the original iteration of the show… but it could well be what she is thinking.
