Based on what we were shown, that lip-sync put the earlier one that gave both queens a chanté to shame. Coco had the rap down, and I understand why Alyssa had to leave this week given her ill-advised choice of words about coasting to the top on one LS4YL after another. But damn, that was not the way I wanted that rivalry to break.

I can only presume Coco's days are numbered, but the "dress up someone who doesn't normally do drag" episodes have a way of really blowing a cyclone through the presumed order of things.

After the last few Untucked episodes, I'm thinking Alaska might have Miss Congeniality wrapped up, unless Jinxx folds under pressure.

Yeah the next challenge should be interesting -- the only time Raja had to lipsync was with her equivalent episode.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 2 April 2013 23:26 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, and Sharon also got sent to the bottom 2 on that challenge.

alternately mean and handsy (Eric H.), Tuesday, 2 April 2013 23:26 (eleven years ago) link

i want to see jinkx lip synch, not because i think she deserves to be in the bottom two ever, but because i'm certain she's so good at it

ampersand cooper black (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 3 April 2013 15:16 (eleven years ago) link

She kind of did in that pseudo-gloryhole mini-challenge early on (she didn't win).

alternately mean and handsy (Eric H.), Wednesday, 3 April 2013 15:19 (eleven years ago) link

haha i'm obsessed, but there's some decent stuff on jinkx's YT channel, the medea diaries are pretty lol

xpost -- she also did in that one bit on the second Untucked where the lip-sync group challenge went down. Just because I remembered the amazing looks/performance she gave on "...relying on that BODYodyodyody..."*rolls eyes*

Whaddya know? Looks like Jinkx is about to fall on a big ol' grenade.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Monday, 8 April 2013 12:32 (eleven years ago) link

(Oh, and Detox's military sister is really hot.)

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Monday, 8 April 2013 12:34 (eleven years ago) link

with any luck that navy daddy paired with jinkx will be the most naturally campy queen of them all

ampersand cooper black (elmo argonaut), Monday, 8 April 2013 12:53 (eleven years ago) link

Maybe, but at first blush, I think Alaska definitely picked the easy winner in that lineup.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Monday, 8 April 2013 12:54 (eleven years ago) link

Ha, Jinkx got the best one out of the five if you ask me! Dude had stories.

Anyway Jinkx survives, SEEYA COCO.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 05:01 (eleven years ago) link

Promo for next week makes it seem like RuLaskaTox trying to drive Jinkx out...I have my doubts.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 05:06 (eleven years ago) link

Meantime, Little Edie returned recently...

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 05:43 (eleven years ago) link

okay Alaska's Nebraska was cute premakeover but DAMN she is a fine queen. Crappy padding or no.

Detox's Retox oh hai hott. I could watch her walk in those heels all day long. The makeup kinda bummed me out though.

Coco's Horchata looked like a kabuki actor! So bad. Didnt think she lost the lipsync but who cares BUHBYEEEE

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 06:03 (eleven years ago) link

Nah, she lost. Detox's comment about having more fun on stage underscored why.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 06:05 (eleven years ago) link

That's true

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 06:06 (eleven years ago) link

Coco had such a stick up her ass 24/7

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 06:07 (eleven years ago) link

faaaar out Detox's family-time on untucked made me bawl

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 06:13 (eleven years ago) link

and Untucked made me crush on Detox's baby queen 10x more

and Alaska's. Suuuper cute. jesus.

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 06:21 (eleven years ago) link

OK. I want Detox's little soldier.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 21:08 (eleven years ago) link

Oh wait, that's not what I meant.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 21:08 (eleven years ago) link

You can have both.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 21:16 (eleven years ago) link

lol

soldierboy is killing me

can he stay on the show, and be detox's mascot? CAN THAT BE A THING PLZ

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 21:31 (eleven years ago) link

I'd def let him kill me.

Also, I only just a few weeks ago put together that Michelle Visage was in Seduction, so it was extra sweet to hear her song put up as a LSFYL.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:01 (eleven years ago) link

I looked her up on Wiki to find out who she was supposed to be, and that was the first time I'd ever heard Seduction. V cool

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:04 (eleven years ago) link

that whole conversation about tucking, soldier boy with his SIZE 15 FEET

*dead*

LOL, I almost missed that ("Anaconda," r u for real?!) because I was in hysterics with Coco's guy.

"Where are your balls."
"They're in my hand."
"Your balls are in your hand?"

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:25 (eleven years ago) link

that whole thing was so funny

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:29 (eleven years ago) link

"Can we start with the shoes?"

*heart melts*

Fuck Mysterious Skin. Looks like Tarzan, sounds like Jane is very much AGL in this case.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:31 (eleven years ago) link

Oh, and Jinkx's mom crying was the emotional highlight for me.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:33 (eleven years ago) link

Er, Detox's.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:33 (eleven years ago) link

xxpost totally, soldierboy worked those pumps something fierce too

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:34 (eleven years ago) link

yeah the mom moment was basically rivers of tears on my couch

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:34 (eleven years ago) link

No, I meant Jinkx's stage mom crying because he long ago gave up any hope to fraternize with the younger crowd. That sort of got to me.

cacao nibs (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 22:40 (eleven years ago) link

oh yeah, that was really touching too. he was an interesting guy

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 23:02 (eleven years ago) link

Indeed. And thanks re: which mom, I was all "Er wait." Yes, dude's a treasure.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 April 2013 23:20 (eleven years ago) link

And boom, top 3. And I agree Alaska won that round and as soon as I saw it was Yma Sumac for the lip sync I was all "Jinkx survives" and so it proves...

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 05:01 (eleven years ago) link

Meantime hmmm indeed. Also interesting to note in this interview how Alyssa fesses up to being a Jinkx fan!

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 13:30 (eleven years ago) link

i'm waiting for eric to start the drag race alumnae dance singles poll, when is that going to happen eric

ampersand cooper black (elmo argonaut), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 14:58 (eleven years ago) link

i'm not saying any of the music is particularly good but if this show is pretty good at getting its fans to buy singles on itunes

ampersand cooper black (elmo argonaut), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 15:06 (eleven years ago) link

Taking advantage of the market. (Hey, why not.)

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 15:14 (eleven years ago) link

Meanwhile Jinkx ruling every roost from over the weekend, whether solo:

Though admittedly I think Raja kinda kills the entire universe there.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 20:22 (eleven years ago) link
