The Suck Off (Competition)

**The Suck! Off** is a monthly drag competition held at Delmonicas in Glasgow. The competition is generally held across 3-4 weeks/heats, followed by the finals in which one drag artist is deemed the winner of that month's Suck Off. This competition is one of the most popular stages aimed at platforming new drag performers in Scotland.

Each week, a different pair of fresh drag artists are assigned a random lipsync song (with several weeks/months to prepare prior). The winner moves on to *Suck Harder* - the finale week - while the loser of the lipsync is eliminated. The audience and the judges of the competition (Suck! hosts Rujazzle, CJ Banks and Chucky Bartolo) work together to decide a winner each week.

At the finals, each competitor gets to showcase their own solo performance in a "quick fire round". As of the 2023 February Suck Off, one of the top 2 is decided by the judges, then the second is nominated via the audience's cheers. This top 2 then lipsyncs to a pre-determined song, and the winner is deemed the champion of the Suck Off (of their month).

The Suck Off occurred over 3 months in 2022 and will occur for 5 months in 2023. Due to a lack of online information, it's unclear how many months the Suck Off occurred in years beforehand, or the exact results of some.
