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

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*

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

and Untucked made me crush on Detox's baby queen 10x more
and Alaska's. Suuuper cute. jesus.

Oh wait, that's not what I meant.
You can have both.

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

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

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
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

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!

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:

having more & more affection for Alaska as this thing goes on
she's really grown on me
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 21:09 (eleven years ago) link
and Ru's point about her pulling off the suit/pants in drag was key
She's great! I still want Jinkx to win and then some but if it's Alaska, no complaints. (If it's Roxxy, derp.)
There were some great red carpet clips with Jinkx and Alaska in the promos for the awards last night. Alaska as Not-Sharon matched with Jinkx AS Alaska. Her imitating Alaska giving GPS directions had me roffling for a good two minutes, it was so note perfect.
