lol awesome

And Jinkx just now on FB. Yeah, I think I'm ride or die with her for life now:

In the heat of everything. Amidst all the criticisms and all the fan adoration and all the craziness, the one thing that stays the most important to me is the texts of undying love and pride from my youngest brother, Jacob, that mean the most and give me all the strength I need.

I love you Bug.

On the one hand, it's nice that there's still a clear villain going into the final 3. On the other hand, I hate that there has to be a villain going into the final 3.

Sort of shocked that Alaska called out Jinkx on the runway to go home, but maybe it was intended to light a fire under her going into the LSFYL.

Beautiful editing on the Untucked ep as Jinkx went from thinking Roxxy was complimenting her to realizing she was, yet again again, reading her.

Oh, and Alaska has Miss Congeniality in the bag I think.

Getting a big time Nancy Boys vibe from that cooking demo. (Nancy Boys being the premiere and as far as I know only drag variety show on Minneapolis public television.)

Alaska is growing on me. I like Jinkx the best personality wise, but I will say I don't think she's winner material. I would just prefer she were my friend above any of the other queens.

also Roxxxy Andrews is a pretty benign villain. Phi Phi was far more annoying.

eh roxxxy is just one of those people who confuses meanness for wit iirc

There's been some image control on Rox & Detox's Twitter accounts this week, but I still blame selective editing for some of the nasty the former displayed ... or at least the amplitude of it.

So we've got tonight, recap next week (I assume) and then the finale in two weeks...

Meantime, Jinkx news -- she's now up to a sixth night on sale in NYC with her two-person Vaudevillians act

While we've also got Jinkx and Alaska via podcast in Florida why because great

And now -- two weeks of hacking the vote! (Maybe.)

Geez, I thought last night was the finale. Boo. Hopefully Roxxy fans aren't tech savvy enough to push her win.

was super-impressed by Alaska's defend your life speech, and I liked her LSFYL performance

Yeah, great stuff for sure! I am fine with it coming down to a split between Jinkx and Alaska for the win (I can't see Roxxy marshalling anywhere near enough support now after that last episode.)

Oh BTW, Jerick aka Jinkx out of costume last night

Roxxy's weird rant about all the 'comedy' in the courtroom scene was O_o ... she sounded like a 5 year old way past naptime

....yeahhh, all her saying it was trying to mindgame everyone = I think not! (Besides which, if anything she didn't help herself given Alaska putting the exclamation point on it all; then again she was savvy enough to note where the other two had slipped, so the advantage of going last!)

Thing about Roxxy is that if the two had been contemporaneous Divine would have trashed her attitude completely and played the big girl card hard in return. So, like, fail on Ms. Andrews' part.

It amazes me that Roxxxxy is so stupid as to have no concept of drag's inherent camp value. You're dressing up as an ott fascimilie of a woman, gtfo w yr whole THIS IS V V SERIOUS AND NOT AT ALL PLAYFUL OR FUN bs

Yeah, it's just straight O_o

honestly i can't even bother with roxxxy's complaints, which seem to be about how the competition should have been better suited to her style of drag (looking like a low-rent lainie kazan wearing peel-n-stick eyebrows and a tearaway bedsheet)

<3 <3 <3 that is the best description of Roxxxy ever

both roxxxy and coco had these intense rants about their competition which was basically them projecting their weaknesses and insecruties. it really was like watching a kid or a teen lash out.

A roffle

Girl I am gagging!

Recap show tonight; they've got the first part up already:

http://www.logotv.com/video/misc/904099/rupauls-drag-race-episode-13-season-5-countdown-to-the-crown-part-1-of-6.jhtml

Recap show way too busy/staged for me, rather preferred the style in older seasons. Still two moments were keepers:

* the correct pronunciation of 'brocade'

* Dave the veteran's gift to Jinkx

brocade was awesome

alaska's table dance had my attention

think I'm rooting for Alaska. I don't know why, just that goddammit she's fuckin adorable & hilarious

preview of the opening (snicker)

roxy looks way too covered up compared to the other 2...her steez is always so Designing Women

Tonight!

Meantime, Jinkx lives the dream:

Peaches Christ Productions Proudly Presents
GREY GARDENS
With The Original Stage-show Premiere of Return To Grey Gardens
Starring JINKX MONSOON as Lil'L Edie and PEACHES CHRIST as Big Edie
The Castro Theatre, Saturday October 12th

wow

that sounds awesome!

And! Ru in an interview with the NYT. Fascinating to see him sans makeup -- he's rocking those freckles!

http://www.nytimes.com/video/2013/05/06/arts/television/100000002210489/the-conversation-rupaul.html

xpost - and yeah, VG, you should go!

I'm seriously considering it.

I'm content.

Ha, Ms. J. herself spoiled it for me, she already posted on FB and I was foolish enough to see an autoupdate. And yeah she just had to win even with Alaska's good finish in the final episodes. But if I can just say right now YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH JINKXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. World conquest plz.

Yay! Manila's Instagram spoiled me. Bugger. I'll watch it soon.

Also Ivy Winters as Ms Congeniality = way cool.

And final thing to add -- holy hell did Raja kill it there with her look! Beyond that my other faves were Sharon Needles with the Pee Wee Herman and Detox's black/white approach.

Sharon's Pee Wee realness was amazing

Psyched for Jinks, that's a great ending. Pretty awesome season, this one I thought

I have to do an Alaska tribute though
