Ginger and Katya are pretty seemingly locks. Third is a wild card between the three drop dead gorgeous skinny bitches.

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

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

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.
― Hammer Smashed Bagels, Saturday, 18 April 2015 20:08 (nine years ago) link
very cool!
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 18 April 2015 21:28 (nine years ago) link
Nice! What role did she play in Grease ?
― LeRooLeRoo, Saturday, 18 April 2015 22:31 (nine years ago) link
Doody (ie, "Those Magic Changes"). She also choreographed the show. fantastic singer. had also played the Emcee in Cabaret as a young teen. ridiculously talented. Orlando theatre community is going nuts over this at the moment, and naturally of course Ginger can't spill the results. :) not that anybody would want it ruined.
― Hammer Smashed Bagels, Sunday, 19 April 2015 05:17 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, I think this season we finally get a big-girl winner.
― Eric H., Sunday, 19 April 2015 05:23 (nine years ago) link
Well that was an unexpected twist for the episode and show. Not the ending, that was a hair too preordained (would have gone for Katya/Kasha to win, but it was close, while Ginger wasn't going to go, period).
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 05:05 (nine years ago) link
Best episode of the season so far I thought. From Latrice MF Royale to the mini challenge, to the twist, the runway, and the lypsynch. Very entertaining.
― LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:56 (nine years ago) link
Yeah I loved Latrice! What a perfect cameo!
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 22 April 2015 00:43 (nine years ago) link
Not only probably the best ep of the season so far, but the best Untucked too, from what I've seen. Like Robert Altman came back from the grave to restage Paris is Burning.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 22 April 2015 04:14 (nine years ago) link
Felt a little bad for Tempest tho, being the first sent home and now this.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 22 April 2015 04:15 (nine years ago) link
Katya's description of the lip sync ... OMG.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 22 April 2015 04:16 (nine years ago) link
would have gone for Katya/Kasha to win
Really? Even given Kasha's umpteenth boxed wine gag?
PS Kennedy seems to love trade almost as much as Kasha loves boxed wine.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 04:46 (nine years ago) link
Think you misspelled "shade" there.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 22 April 2015 04:55 (nine years ago) link
Hahaha.
BTW the Untucked, omg Katya and Trix were on fire. Also Jaidynn seems to be such a sweetheart, even all the production assistants were giving her a hug and a kiss when she left.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 05:15 (nine years ago) link
kennedy gets love for those ashy knees holy shit i was dying
katya is killing me. that fucking costume
Larry Bird & Raven Simone in a permanent butffuck position omgggggggggggg

Fame is really growing on me, kind of like a fouler Alyssa, what with her oblivious dorkiness.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 06:24 (nine years ago) link
Plus her support for Katya in the previous episode was awesome.
Jaidynn is the perennial Miss Congeniality that doesn't win.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 06:30 (nine years ago) link
I liked her but it was time to go
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 14:24 (nine years ago) link
Sad thing about Ru's Trixie engineering is that it deprived of us of her Snatch. I was daydreaming about alternatives, like eliminating Max earlier and keeping Trix and then bringing Max back after SG so that we would've been spared her Needles.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 16:19 (nine years ago) link
Although the theme was already done to death, Fame did such an amazing job with Kandy's makeup. Most of the time I couldn't tell them apart.
― LeRooLeRoo, Wednesday, 22 April 2015 16:20 (nine years ago) link
Absoluteleeeee! I had to work to remember that Kandy is really short.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 16:25 (nine years ago) link
I'm amazed at how the show could predict what happened with Trixie. What if people didn't care about her? It was a risk, but they must have been so happy when they saw the reaction online to Trixie's elimination knowing what was going to happen later. (x-post)

I def appreciated Pearl's makeover on Kandy Ho a whole lot more the second time after watching shangela/alaska's commentarytoo bad the costume was a snore

this was pretty fun you guys

Almost surprising John W. hadn't already been on before! (Still, given the past week, hearing Ru start the intro message with a "Hello Baltimore!" was pretty jarring.)
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 28 April 2015 05:07 (nine years ago) link
I wish Katya could have won. But Ginger did great. Kennedy really went for it too!
and I know they were flat but the 3 Divines was still p lol

Pretty sure Violet's dress was designed by Sandhya.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 29 April 2015 03:52 (nine years ago) link
Fame looked great but so not an ugly dress
lol @ untucked that Pearl was imitating Trixie's eye makeup...and katya killing me again
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 29 April 2015 03:55 (nine years ago) link
Feel pretty bad that Fame never really got to capitalize on her oddballishness in the end.
We're all in agreement that Fame and Pearl were totally kai-kai'ing right?
― Eric H., Wednesday, 29 April 2015 04:12 (nine years ago) link
Katya deserved the prize for tackling the only non-Divine/Edie character and slaaaaaaaying.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 29 April 2015 04:13 (nine years ago) link
fame said on Whatcha Packin that she wants to bring drag to high-fashion & be a drag fashion model. She could totally pull that off. She has so much poise on the runway & her face is always goddamn immaculate.
Like, she *could* give us Raja levels of amazing but she's still kinda...undercooked? I dont think she's quite there yet but I think she is capable of killing it even if she is a complete dork inside
