Is your friend Laganja?
― Godsleee You Black Emperor (Leee), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 19:23 (nine years ago) link
There's a thought.
Anyway some fun/interesting details in that interview. How had I missed the Pit Crew's web series?

Didn't realize Max was from the Twin Cities.

I am intrigued by Violet but idk if she's anything more than a look
Mrs Kasha Davis & Jasmin look like they might be fun
Kennedy Davenport is for real, her dancing is ridiculous

i am too tired to stay up & watch untucked online tho, will catch up tomorrow
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 March 2015 06:14 (nine years ago) link
good cast thoughthat max is kinda interesting! violet chachki is fun to watch but idk personality wise she seems a bit dead in the water
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 March 2015 06:15 (nine years ago) link
I'm kind of still getting them all mixed up, especially the young fishy ones. The ones that stand out for me so far are Max and Katya. I'm glad we're getting Untucked on TV right after the episode here in Canada. It's an integral part of the show for me (although this particular one was boring. I'm not sure I like how they are doing it this Season.)
― LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 3 March 2015 16:33 (nine years ago) link
i was annoyed that they blurred the bodies, made it harder to tell how crappy the paintjobs really were
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 March 2015 17:42 (nine years ago) link
Yeah that was really dumb. Blurring fake nudity? Ugh. At least we got to see what they looked like on Untucked. Especially Ginger lol!
― LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 3 March 2015 18:44 (nine years ago) link
Delays delays, ONLY just got around to seeing the episode. (Ending up crashing out last night, just too tired from my birthday weekend.) Liked the change up for the opening challenge and how Alaska was just...there. Because why not!
I suppose they couldn't do what they did last season and break things up initially without ruining the surprise, but it did feel a little rushed this time around, especially since we only got an hour long episode instead of the older hour and a half season starters. Maybe next week will cause things to settle a bit.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 01:55 (nine years ago) link
Alaska was (brilliantly) impersonating Anna Wintour!
I rewatched the episode and it was better this time around because I could remember who was who. There were just to many new faces yesterday. After seeing it again, I thought they got the bottom two wrong. For me it should have been Jasmine and her cocoon vs Sasha and her not understanding the assignment. But I think the producers chose to have Tempest and Kandy lipsynch to continue the drama they had going since the very beginning of the episode. I'm surprised miss Ho's ageism was Ruwarded with a win.
― LeRooLeRoo, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 04:29 (nine years ago) link
god Sasha was horrible
she looked like me walking out on the runway in my spanx
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 March 2015 04:41 (nine years ago) link
Yeah a second watch should help things sink in a bit more. Was catching up on the various web clips and things now, Pandora B in full effect as always...
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 04:54 (nine years ago) link
And having seen the Untucked now...hmm. It IS all different. I kinda liked seeing more of the whole behind-the-scenes in general -- like, the actual reverse side of the workroom doors, who knew! And the basic couch format is okay enough though I do miss the Ru shrines and all, plus no peekaboo moments as well, I guess.
Strange, though, how the whole episode felt very...almost elegaic. More restrained and almost melancholy in its shooting and editing, but also in the discussions. It wasn't sold as bitchy backstage drama, it's a bit of a sharp turn. But maybe that was the whole point, that they'd reached a limit?
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 05:31 (nine years ago) link
Anyway, Raja and Raven back with the Ruviews tomorrow!
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 05:32 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, the split premiere, for its faults, really let you get to know the contestants, and I'm still trying to remember who gave birth in their Werq Room entrance, who said they had a body of an Irish rock climber, etc.
I was surprised with Max -- flat/shallow personality judging from her MTQ video, but her looks were so far out of the box that there was plenty of room for Shangela in there. But I think she's going to be a more clueless April.
Pearl's entrance was my favorite.
Some of these girls are cinched to the gawds. Damn!

I loved Max's resort retiree with the crutches, that was all up in some Sharon Needles steez, so awesome
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 March 2015 05:59 (nine years ago) link
And I presume a wink to Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" video.
― LeRooLeRoo, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 06:24 (nine years ago) link
oh yeah that too! *forehead slap*
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 March 2015 06:27 (nine years ago) link
She wishes she were shady, when instead she's a garden variety a-hole.
One of the fishies -- I think Violet? -- out of drag is what I imagine Detox to look like pre-surgeries.

Also, I have just noticed that there's a commentary version of the episode with Alasks and Bianca Del Rio BEST IDEA EVER

Where's Untucked?? Is it only going to be on Youtube this season?
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Saturday, 7 March 2015 03:30 (nine years ago) link
online only
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 7 March 2015 03:47 (nine years ago) link
I couldn't find it on Logo's site though! I ended up watching it on YouTube.
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Saturday, 7 March 2015 19:06 (nine years ago) link
Yeah I think it's only on YT -- I guess the idea is try and showcase their channel there more.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 7 March 2015 19:25 (nine years ago) link
Oh and speaking of, the first RuView with Raja and Raven did go up:

Okay that made for a great ending. (And was not the Olivia song I would have picked, even though I was just thinking about it recently!)
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 05:03 (nine years ago) link
Ru is such a nerd with her special guest judges & song choices
also Sasha Belle's sad boob malfunction was hilarious and a fitting punctuation to her overall sad-drag
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 05:39 (nine years ago) link
The best thing she did was show up in the Milla Jovovich/Fifth Element knockoff right from her introduction and even that wasn't much. Combine that with the pretension that being a self-proclaimed hyperfan of the show who had 'cracked the code' was enough and yikes, crash and burn, especially after Katya pulled off the fast AND slow splits.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 14:24 (nine years ago) link
Oh and can I just say -- Moby? Out of nowhere? Getting blown? As it were.

yeah that was weird and awesome
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 16:23 (nine years ago) link
Also I love how in the space of six months or so Jordin Sparks has been in a Left Behind reboot and shown laughing her ass off at a group lipsync routine full of reverse cowgirl action and oral sex and etc.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 16:27 (nine years ago) link
As much as I didn't enjoy her last week, I thought Jasmine should've been in the top 3 this week. Fashion really isn't her thing, but she might keep herself on the show with her lipsynch like Coco and Trinity did. I do agree Ginger deserved the win though.
