The big boys have come to slay on HBO Max’s ‘Legendary’!

Kyle Jackson

Get ready to watch the bears vogue the house DOWN!

Season two of the hit HBO Max show Legendary has been absolutely fierce! Just in case you haven’t been watching, let me tell you that the kids have been werking and voguing for the GAWDS, honey! And we are absolutely living!

Judges Jameela Jamil, Megan Thee Stallion, Law Roach, and Leiomy Maldonado have a big job on their hands judging some of these houses. Some are great, some get a pass, but they all bring their own style. But what else would you expect? These kids know how to walk a ball.

What we didn’t expect, however, was how much the bears and big boys would be represented this season! Six of the ten houses had a big guy on their team, and it was actually very refreshing to see both the show embrace larger bodies and the houses push their larger members to the front to show off their skills. This is a lane that’s usually dominated by very small and flexible people, and they came to show us something different.

Whether their houses make it to the finals or not, these big boys definitely showed up and SLAYED!

Watch these bears slay on season two of Legendary, now on HBO Max!
