Just saw untucked and I was rolling my eyes along with Nina while Alexis was calling the queens for not warn her that her looks was basic, making all that scene. Bitch, do you guys have mirrors? Use them! I get, seems that you helped other queens, but theres no away everyone can cover up others mistakes/know what the judges will like or not. If you are so on point to not let anyone go to the stage looking bad, why Peppermint went to the stage wearing thoses lame pink skirts for two weeks? Should she put the blame on you? Other than that, I didnt know that Farrah had such a bond with Cynthia, so it makes me understand why she was extra emotional. Nina was still on her head, Shea was a really good sister to como over to her, even knowing that if she turn around she could be competition. After see that support, really girl, get over the victm character here I dont say again that you will give up (we didnt heard from her but other queens mentioned she said that, despiste the fact some believe that she wouldn). Talking about give up, the queens really got disappointed with last week/were worried for the season reputation after that lip sync.

Its really becoming hard to watch most of these teams trying to work together.. Wish Shamir and Brooke were team up (they would have gone leg 1, eliminated on the first task cause one wouldnt be able to do anything and the other would just give up). And Michael and Ashton also should be a team, so they both could crash their heads against each other.. If I was Scott, I would probably give up.. You can see at his face that hes comming to the conclusion that unless he manages to do everything (with is impossible), they wont stood a chance. Michael and Liz totally can rebound IF Michael stops to be so passive agressive towards Liz. ´´You know it all, You know it all, choose it``. SHHHHH!!!! If you see that you are being clueless/making wrong decisions pretty much the full leg and your team mate is at least keeping you guys on track, don´t act like shes steping up over you.. If wasnt for Liz, they would have lost waaay more time (really that he wanted to go kayak again? after their major struggle with it on leg 1?). And the U-turn rules changes since when? Cause as far I remember, teams could only use it one time during the entire race....

Yep, based on the lyp sinc, probably Farrah would go. But Cynthia keeps proving shes not able to be competition for the queens behind her. She tried her best, but its very predictable and not great/little lame in spots. And she failed on this challenge because she couldnt rely on her ´´Cucu`` thing. Thats a big problem, its showing that the only thing she has is this (apart from a nice/friendly personality out of drag, but we are not judging that).

Okey dokey... On the challenge first: The judges were spot on with top and bottom queens.. Shea totally earned her victory by killing both challenge and runway. Alexis could had a chance but damm, she goes to the runway looking like she was about to make a surprising reveal and she give us a sales dress that you can buy at any store?!! And Peppermint and another random piece of pink fabric under her waist again?!!! Geeez girl. And yes, please Nina, NO MORE DRAMA! Really glad they called her on the fake conspiration. Get it out of your mind and be the fierce queen we know you can be. Well, once the crew member showed under the table I knew Eureka was a goner, no mistery there. For sure not the way people expected to see her leaving, that was sad. But, pretty sure she will return more bitchy next season. Wondering again, how much was the difference between her injury and Charlie´s, cause Charlie really went home as quitter while Eureka really had no choice. And Cynthia and Farrah? Unless you step up, you can both go away on the next two episodes, in no particular order.

I heard it from her too.. And I´m not sure how much its totally true or its just a excuse. Like, even if producers didnt want her to tell about it, why she had to say that shes a live singer/she dont lip sync?! That was the part that most people went ´´WTH?!!``. For me, I think she might have hurt herself, but it wasnt as bad to make her enable to continue on the show (if it was the case, they would made some drama about it and also she wouldnt be able to hide it) or at least to make it possible for her to do a better performance. IMO, its one more excuse along with ´´I´ll be sent home cause they want to get rid of the oldest bitch`` or the fact she kept those extreme tall hight heels so people would go ´´ohh, how could she move with that?``. Yep, she probably would be beaten anyway, but she could have done something, she wasnt paralyzed. I like Charlie, she released a cool single today on her channel, but I hear excuses to hide the fact she gave up or even went to the show just for promote herself, not looking for the prize/afraid to go further and fail in other challenges.

Yep.. While I dont agree that the leader should always take the responsability but on this case it was clear that her decisions (since all came from her) were mostly wrong, starting by signing herself a role that she couldnt deal with. If wasnt for Nina and Eureka, that team would be as bad as that group from season 7 with Pearl, Kennedy and Jasmin were everybody was a mess/didnt know what to do on stage.

As far the lack of a real battle on the Lip Sync (mentioned above) I think we still gonna have some really strong ones from both sides.. Aja, Trinity, Shea, Peppermint, Nina.. They all come of as strong performers/not mess around on the lip sync. Cinthya we still need to see her not going against a queen killing on wheels (I´m still waiting to see some improvement on her from last season tho)..Eureka wont also be knocked out easily. Not sure on Sasha, Valentina and specially on Farrah (I think the song choice will make the difference with them). And theres is Alexis thas so far has being very competent at everything but no ups and downs, so I´m wondering if her lip sync will be the same... competent, not bad but not wow.

Just embrassing myself for the chance that once Shamir finally comes last it will be a NEL =_=. Cause for the last two legs, they only survived by external factors, so they time must be expiring. However, its probably about time for us to have a NEL...

Watched untucked.. Eureka and Trinity kept their arguments from the runway, till Trinity left and queens from that team sorta realized they had a poor time management and that the biggest mistake was from the ancors part plus Trinity being a dictator. The queens really expected the bottom to be Trinity VS Peppermint, with Trinity saying she only choosed Charlie to go home in the runway cause she expected her to be spared.. And Charlie didnt prepared at all, she was really praying to not fall in the bottom. As far Charlie goodbye, it was nice that despiste her assuming not having the fight spirit required, she wants queens over 40´s to believe themselves and try to get into the show cause they have alot to offer. She said she would do her impersonation of Joan Rivers on Snatch Game, that she would kill it.. After this week, I´m not sure how well she would do on these sort of challenges, cause she seems the type of artist that does well by her own, but when it requires to interact with people with different process, have to improvise, she kinda chokes. Dont know, she really could have killed it, but have she choked, it wouldnt do her much favors since she works as impersonator. PS: Nice to see Ross getting emotional with her leaving, he really cares.

It seems like most of them are either too much on their heads or just dont have it.. Thats why Valentina, even being the youngest, is the only one standing out, cause shes acting at least shes playing both fearless and charming at the same time, while the others are in a shuffle week by week on sorta stand out or just being middle pack to bad. Like I can´t point out a top 3.. I thought I could on epi one, and Charlie was there and look now... Lets see when Snatch Game comes... In other hand, if some queens start to get their groove aswell, we might have a more wide open competition, different from last season. Watching untucked now, a fan posted it on youtube, just search for ´´drag race untucked`` and filter the search for the last 24 hours.

Nah, we had montaged runway in other seasons too. It usually happens when the main challenge takes more time, there is some drama going on and the runway theme is random/wont interfere at all in the judging. The only thing was different its that when we had challenges like this, queens never did it ´´live`` so we always watched the final recording version with the judges in the runway. This time, since we watched it all while they recorded it we went straight to the winners announcement and critics.

Wooow, huge disappointment on Charlie. Like, watching her character on the show and on her youtube channel, I knew that at some point her serious/too calm personality with just a few jokes here and there would caught up to her, but not this early. She really sold herself with the looks, but that was it. And WTH with ´´I don´t lip sync???!!!!`` What? That was sad, if wasnt for Trinity I would feel depressed for that Lip Sync. I dont even think someone at Charlie´s age should consider him/herself such as a old person.. In other hand, I can understand that drag is hard and that was probably the reason that Ru didnt snap at her giving up (and for some respect). About the rest of the episode, Sasha and Shea totally owned the challenge, not even close (glad to finally see Sasha showing personality). Eureka and specially Nina did really well...Alexis, Farrah, Cinthya were ok. Valentina and Aja were off and should be glad the other team was waaay worse. Charlie, Trinity and Peppermint were suffering to watch. Dont gonna comment much about the runway looks since they mean even less than normal this week. Waiting for untucked since we actually got some real tension going on this week.

Damm, there shouldnt be any U-Turn before the teams have to at least to do roadblock or one side of the detour first! Really messed up, we lost a really good team to watch compete to have to deal some very annoying/useless people. And Redmon? ´´Are you afraid of me?! Are you?! You should be! You´re weak!`` What a douch! Damm, he made himself look even worse than Shamir that is more like becoming lame. Just wondering if they have a U-turn to use and Vanck & Ashton are still on the race/behind them.. They will use it on them, even they being ´´weak``?

It seems like she just had her group of closest friends as the top queens, no bias at all. She mentioned her, Sasha, Charlies should be there that Aja would be in the top. None were top three material. Also funny that after be confronted with the reality, her, Sasha and everybody else gather around Aja to fix a bunch of stuff they saw that was off on her look.

Watched untucked and Aja´s atittude was almost as ugly as her makeup/look. Totally got defensive and started to attack other queens, starting by taking all her frustation in Valentina. Yep, maybe she shouldnt be in the bottom 2 but she earned her place in the bottom 3, so she shouldnt act like it was outrageous (time to realize shes not at her facetune word, on the stage were shes popular, that shes facing very polished queens). Look at yourself in the mirror girl, rewatch your confusing character. Lmao at Alexis thinking the top 3 should have being a combination of her, Sasha, Charlie or even Aja. Kimora redeemed herself a bit for at least appreciate the friends she made and by not go out as such delusional as she presented herself at first. She knew it was her time, her limitations.

Geez, Kimora couldnt even delivery a emotional backstorie. She pretty much failed at everything. If she pays for people to do her stuff, either she needs more money or get a better taste cause everything she presented looked cheap. I see people wanting Farrah in the bottom with Kimora, but Aja needed that wake up call. She looked like a beaten up clown. PS: Smart move from Trinity. She looked at Valentina victory over her last week and saw what she was missing: personality. And she just took advantage of the challenge to actually show one.

Exactly. Stupid deal? Yes, but they both agreed with it and they stated they expected the other team to wait for them (wondering how they would react have the other team got there first and broke their deal). They just got really cocky by having that lead/expected to take this leg with no competition. Not only they had to swallow a third place behind the team they deceived, but they raised a big target on their back from the U-turns and other teams might not trust on them anymore (save the lies for strategic moments, either later on or for a extreme case). And we couldnt even blame teams to have them as a target, cause they can easily get perceived as a strong team, on the top of that now they showed they shouldnt be trusted! It is a bad strategy to hold a grudge against weak teams/waste U-turn on them. But on this two, I wouldnt think twice before U-Turn them cause I would know that I was getting rid of a strong team (if there was a really good chance of them placing last, not having a second U-Turn wide open). This is not just a straight race, this is a game too! Use well your cards otherwise...

It seems like at that moment when he asked for the doors to be closed/cameras to go away that Shamir not only wanted someone to take care of his balls, but that he probably threatened the producers to leave the race and they had to persuade him to keep going. Thats probably why Phil asked if he still wanted to still in the race. From producers stand point, while they for sure got mad with him and could let him go away/get a pennalty, find a way to keep Saara with another one (specially this season random partners going on) but they probably gave priority on keep him for drama. They will explore him exploding the most they can (as we already saw on the preview for next episode). Talking about changing partners, I was wondering if they could add another thing to the race, were the team that wins it, could swap other team partners or themselves at one point (of course, it would need to be something really worthy to get, not a given prise like the express pass was this season). Having a U-Turn so early, maybe there will be something else going further?

Poor Sara, being pared with this big cry baby that unless he gets a confortable and smooth race he gets angry and even break stuff (I agree that he should have got a penalty for break the window). Actually, I wish there could be a way only him could get a penalty and Sara could get a new partner. What lessons we got from this episode? 1- Don´t get too cocky for having a lead/dont mess up with another team this early unless you´re racing for last, 2- Have fun/confortable with your partner with the race but not too much to the point that doesnt seem you are racing for 1 million dollars (thats what sent the first two teams home). Glad that we are having a wide open race and that the top 2 teams of this week were the opposite ones/the ones that struggled on leg 1. PS: Since I live in Brazil, just to clarify: That type of gym is not a common thing here, like, I never saw one btw.. We actually have normal gyms, specially in Sao Paulo with those very fancy ones.. I get what they choosed it as a challenge, but it was a little bit out of reality context. PS2: Can you imagine if Shamir and Brooke were paired together?

Just watched Untucked... And yes, most part queens are very supportive to each other, even when trying to throw some underline shade or be critical on each other. Only awkward moment was Charlie losing his cool and asking Eureka to shut up (lmao at one of the queens taking the chance to point out that Eureka actually talk over people too much). T Talking about Charlie, he needs to stop putting the blame on his age/ say the will get rid of the older one. As a joke, it would be fine, but he really was talking serious. In other hand, at least Kimora acknowledge that she went to the show overconfident. Also, we saw footage from Valentina explainning to the judges the reason for her wedding dress. This girl is not fooling around/resting on pretty, other queens better watch out. Shes veeeery endearing and as long she keeps it up and performs well like this week, judges and the audience will totally fall in love for her. At least, so far, the queens were supportive to her cause if they single her out again for her lack of experience, it will make her a more stronger contender for the tittle. Watching the age thing going on, I´m wonder if it will develop to a battle between the most experienced queen X the least...

Well, it was a fine episode... The challenge was actually a challenge to the queens on to keep up with the routine and still show personality, not the best one for us viewers tho, but it was a good way to warm up these queens on what they should delivery going on. The runway was really solid, apart from Kimora. Waiting to see a sewing/glue stuff challenge to see how they present themselves without looks brought from home too. But again, for now, this was good, see if they have taste/sense of style. Funny that Kimora talked about queens looking cheap but she looked the cheaper of all (as her looks from last week also). Lip sync could go either way... was just ok... The right decision was made just because Jaymes was giving ´´I´m done, please send me home in a nice way or I´ll fully hide myself in my head`` vibes while Kimora at least can be bitch for one more episode, but even on that, she better step up, cause right now shes comming of like those queens that thinks they are fierce/bitch and all but they are just whining and boring. Right now, all the queens are sorta meeting with my expectations before the show started except for Valentina and Sasha. Valentina I was expecting her to be the one that would rest on pretty alone, but shes showing personality, performance. And Sasha, that I expected to be a fierce contestant/outshine the queens from the beginning, is falling in the middle (her eyebrows are the only thing that made me go: oh look, thats her!). But lets see, too early...

IKR? What a waste! But again, the feedback Gaga gave to her should be applied by all queens: listen to your guts and dont second guess yourself! I would also add: Don´t let Ru Pauls plant doubts in your head during his visit on the workroom, dont take producers advices, let the judges critics get into your head.

I liked it as a premiere episode... As long the focus on the guest star dont become a pattern during the season, I dont see a problem to have this extra focus by having Lady Gaga on the show, a pop icon that is close to the drag aesthetics/culture and I really liked her.. Of course she would be a little more serious and wouldnt make fun of the queens. She showed respect to their work, different to some other guests we had in past, like that girl that I dont even know her name, with the big eyes, not nearly as popular as Gaga that just would roll her eyes watching the queens and bring them down with uncalled comments. Let this job for the judges, they are the ones paid for it. And, as long we dont have double eliminations, with this non elimination episode, we gonna have the regular elimination, lip sync, mini and main challenge episodes. This was more like a special debut. As far the Queens, I see alot potential going on... Nina, Charlie and Farrah really stood out with their looks... I expect a little more from Sasha, I think we gonna get there.. Valentina still needs to turn down the Bianca Del Rio make up cause she could be really beautifull. And yep, Aja´s make up is rough, but is official : Jaymes Mainsfield is the one really out of her league, that is not even funny (literaly, since she tries to be funny but ends up let us feeling like ´´poor thing...``). Every appearance she made from the promos, shoots, premiere red carpet, the three looks on first episode. Eureka just redeemed herfelf with the Telephone/Gaga look. Other than that, very predictable jokes. PS: Watched the untucked now and Gaga not only went to thank the queens but she shared her notes to every single one of them on how they can improve. That was very nice (I remember her as a mentor on American Idol and she did a great mentoring with great advices on how the contestants could improve their performances. Same happened here, very constructive advices).

Unless Ru takes the crown from Alaska (disqualifying her for try to bargain with the show prize/money), I dont thin there will be much to watch either.

Since the show is pretty much 90% (to say at least) scripted, why give us winners that we can see from miles away, specially on all stars? (where there should be multiple choices). Geeezz, I know that logo/producers always saw something extra on Alaska that I didnt, but it was needed to give her most of the wins, go away with most of the cash (unless the money prises are also fake)? This season started of really well, but went downhill the last three/four weeks. Its like they want to have a audience full o people watching it for hate the queens. Damm, even their choosen one they made away to make people dislike her.
