She's starting to feel more like the preordained champion (and no complaints), hits a sweet spot between fashion and comedy.

i am getting a tiny bit impatient for the individual challenges, tho.
has there been a sewing challenge yet? or are we not doing that anymore.
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Thursday, 9 April 2015 14:18 (nine years ago) link
I think they've been drifting away from the arts-n-craft challenges over the last few seasons.
― Eric H., Thursday, 9 April 2015 14:26 (nine years ago) link
One big reason why I can't wait for the Snatch Game here next week.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 9 April 2015 14:28 (nine years ago) link
but didn't bianca sew herself a dress for 3 different challenges last season?
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Thursday, 9 April 2015 14:31 (nine years ago) link
She may have worn one dress in three different challenges, yes.
― Eric H., Thursday, 9 April 2015 14:50 (nine years ago) link
yeah i am over the group acting/singing challenges

I have been on my phone & couldn't pull up the thread. Forced to wait for yall to bump :)
much better snatch game than i expected! kennedy killlllled it. and pearl was p hilar...i wish violet had done a bit more with her alyssa but it was kinda on point even so
max's sharon was unforgiveable wtf
ginger & katya horsing around outside in untucked had me dying
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 15 April 2015 00:40 (nine years ago) link
ugh max is just so insufferably performative all. the. damn. time. LaGanja old hollywood style, p much

Is this the first time an unabashed character queen has been eliminated in Snatch Game?
― Eric H., Wednesday, 15 April 2015 04:08 (nine years ago) link
Honestly, tho, the only two they could even conceivably bring back next week are Milk Max or Trixie.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 15 April 2015 04:09 (nine years ago) link
i think it's p obviously Trixie considering she like unianimously won the lip sync and got sent home anyway
― gybe horses (Stevie D(eux)), Wednesday, 15 April 2015 04:21 (nine years ago) link
Yeah gotta be Trixie.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 15 April 2015 04:45 (nine years ago) link
I hope it's Trixie.
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 15 April 2015 05:58 (nine years ago) link
Max seems layers upon layers of artifice, and the covert bitchiness in contrast to the nice as pie persona just offputting to me. The more of her I saw in Untucked the less I liked
Fame & Katya was a lovely moment
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 15 April 2015 06:00 (nine years ago) link
Also, the condragulations tie? I could think of many other snatch games that merited two winners more than this one, which Kennedy basically ran away with.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 15 April 2015 12:11 (nine years ago) link
Yeah that was weird. I also thought Dela, Adore, and Bianca could've shared the win last year then.
― LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 16 April 2015 00:55 (nine years ago) link
who's coming back though?
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Thursday, 16 April 2015 01:54 (nine years ago) link
How will they decide who gets to come back? Last time it happened I think it was Michelle who chose and she brought back Kenya Michaels.
― LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 16 April 2015 02:25 (nine years ago) link
who knows! if i had to guess its whoever draws the most viewers. could it be anyone but trixie? i dont see anyone begging for more mrs. kasha davis, tho it might be candy i suppose.

i never liked max and this is a great burn
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 16 April 2015 03:43 (nine years ago) link
max failing miserably at doing sharon was a perfect encapsulation of her specific mediocrity
i guess i'd like to see kasha davis come back. the mom thing won me over in the end. if not her then i guess jasmine
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 16 April 2015 03:47 (nine years ago) link
i thought max was great early on but idk, "there's no there there"
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 April 2015 03:53 (nine years ago) link
for sure
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 16 April 2015 03:53 (nine years ago) link
she's the kind of queen that makes you appreciate the true weirdo queens
the fact that she seems like a huge stick in the mud outside of drag was probably a sign

my fave drag queens are at least as interesting irl out of drag as their characters
it's gotta be more than striking a pose
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 April 2015 04:00 (nine years ago) link
I don't know, I agree his Snatch Game was awful but I thought Max was mostly great up until that.
And apparently his weird singing stunt was just really mean editing to make her look like a fool: https://twitter.com/MAXcollective/status/587814514231484416

Raja and Raven not too impressed this week. I loved Violet!

i wanted to like max because her runway looks were always so polished and specific, always high-concept without sacrificing glamour. i even admired the dedication to the grey hair. i dunno, there was a level of exacting control and tenacity that really benefited her style, but it turns out those same qualities made for an extremely stiff and mannered personality. i was hoping she'd stick around long enough to expel the cork from her ass. oh well.
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Thursday, 16 April 2015 13:35 (nine years ago) link
i'm calling katya for top 3 now, btw.
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Thursday, 16 April 2015 13:40 (nine years ago) link
Ginger and Katya are pretty seemingly locks. Third is a wild card between the three drop dead gorgeous skinny bitches.
― Eric H., Thursday, 16 April 2015 13:45 (nine years ago) link
i would like to see ginger katya and kennedy in the final 3 but ru has always showed a crippling weakness for pretty/pretty boring queens so i'm sure violet will worm her way in there
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 16 April 2015 14:16 (nine years ago) link
Other examples?
― Eric H., Thursday, 16 April 2015 14:22 (nine years ago) link
(Also, Kennedy has had exactly one good week.)
tyra, phiphi, & courtney all spring to mind for pretty/boring top 3 contestants
also tatianna but she was top 4
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Thursday, 16 April 2015 14:29 (nine years ago) link
Tyra and PhiPhi were def more pageant than glamour imo, but it's a fine line.
― Eric H., Thursday, 16 April 2015 14:33 (nine years ago) link
wtf is the diff btwn pageant and glamour?
― gybe horses (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 16 April 2015 23:15 (nine years ago) link
like does pageant have a slightly self-aware element of like campy performativity where glamour is just STUNNING FLAWLESS FISH or whatever?
― gybe horses (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 16 April 2015 23:16 (nine years ago) link
Pageant means they look better in drag. Glamour means they're sickening as both a boy and a girl.
― Eric H., Thursday, 16 April 2015 23:58 (nine years ago) link
Pageant usually also means "runway + lipsync and that is IT" plus big hair & GOWNS - glamour is kinda more high-fashiony
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 April 2015 01:54 (nine years ago) link
and glamour queens often dont really lipsync or anything, they just kinda look amazing
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 April 2015 01:55 (nine years ago) link
I know Ginger IRL. she is one of the most talented performers in O-Town, and I performed in Grease with her back in 2002. She was a phenomenal Tobias in Sweeney Todd too back in about 2005. Both her and her husband are very sweet, loving individuals.
obviously biased as Hell but hoping Ginger wins. gotta catch up on several eps.
