That's the thing, she's been consistently good for the past few weeks. Unlike a fair amount of the already departed she can back all the talk up. (In comparison, Laganga starting to yelp more and more about how things aren't breaking her way even when they're 'supposed' to says it all.)

laganja is far and away my least favorite remaining contestant

Darienne not too far behind for me. Girl is getting shady, and not in a funny Bianca Del Rio way.

LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 1 April 2014 15:19 (ten years ago) link

Bianca not winning the reading mini challenge was like a deliberate slap to her face.

hahaha

The only thing that could've made that gif more otm would be to have Gang doing death drop after death drop after death drop in an endless loop of drag cliche.

I think it's Darienne who delivers that line that was in the intro to the first episode of the season growling about how she'll show versatility when Michelle does something and "Santino starts wearing a dress!" The editing made it seem like it was delivered directly to the judges and they didn't show who it actually was -- it's probably more of an Untucked grouse or something -- but she sure didn't sound like she was having fun.

The insecurity parade between Trinity and Laganja is a, wait for it, major DRAG on this season. Trinity looked fine as hell on the runway, though. Thing with her is that she's rarely as bad as she expects to be in these performances (excepting her rap).

I'm not getting a bittercakes vibe from Darienne, even in that mini-confrontation with Ben.

Ned Zeppelin (Leee), Tuesday, 1 April 2014 16:50 (ten years ago) link

When Michelle wears a turtle neck lol (x-post)

LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 1 April 2014 17:08 (ten years ago) link

Ben looked even more hella like Michelle when he was wearing his hip hop costume.

Ned Zeppelin (Leee), Tuesday, 1 April 2014 17:11 (ten years ago) link

I wonder if he would've played her in snatch game if Sharon hadn't already done it (brilliantly).

LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 1 April 2014 17:48 (ten years ago) link

OMG Alaska interviews Gia!

I was a little behind this week, finally caught up. yay!

I have definitely turned a corner on Adore, I think she's great and I'm so glad she won...she was so on point with her rap game.

Darienne's starting to show her true colors and she is not a very nice person imo. But I dunno if Ben is as sweetness and light as she's making herself out to be.

Can I just say that one of the things I love about the Lipsync for your Life challenge is the way that Michelle always sings along to all the songs. I like that about her. Oh and I lol'd at her whole 'TRACK NINE ON THE BODYGUARD SOUNDTRACK FYI'

oh and I was a bit sad to see Milk go but it wasn't heartbreaking. I kinda think that as shitty as Trinity is at almost everything else, she'll never go home while she has to lipsync. That she can do.

Coco and to a lesser extent Alyssa slayed in lipsyncs, though.

Ned Zeppelin (Leee), Thursday, 3 April 2014 16:48 (ten years ago) link

true

I'm not too bothered by Darienne, but for those who are, here's some schadenfreude for you:

Love the filial bianca-adore dynamic tbh, both are my picks to be finalists. ben also likely, imho.

patron sailor, Thursday, 3 April 2014 18:33 (ten years ago) link

also adore's walk on the runway this week is one of the best walks (if not looks) of all time, loved it so much, that runway hasn't been pummeled so since raja iirc

patron sailor, Thursday, 3 April 2014 18:39 (ten years ago) link

I'm not too bothered by Darienne, but for those who are, here's some schadenfreude for you:

Thank you. I really think she should've been in the bottom instead of Milk. Her rap sucked and her runway look was boring. The judges always say they want to see versatility but apparently it doesn't apply to her. At least Milk tried something different.

I guess the producers saw more opportunity in creating drama *yawn* by keeping her.

LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 3 April 2014 19:08 (ten years ago) link

Agreed with the idea of Bianca/Adore/Ben in the final three -- not that it will be for sure but that's looking more and more damned likely. (Bianca at least is a shoo-in unless something REALLY weird happens.)

Meantime, Alaska, Pandora and Jinkx say hi dere:

Red's a good look for Pandora.

Ned Zeppelin (Leee), Thursday, 3 April 2014 21:15 (ten years ago) link

I loved that thing that Adore said in one of the cutaways about Bianca will do stuff to make you want to hug her but she'll be all 'fuck off' if you try to

<3

LeRoo otm, I didn't feel like Milk was anywhere near as bad as Darienne in the video, and Milk's runway getup was no great shakes but Darienne looked pretty off the rack
*shrug*

I'm not really into Adore (and kinda not seeing what everyone else is seeing in her), but early in the episode where she cracked herself up was very endearing.

Ned Zeppelin (Leee), Thursday, 3 April 2014 21:57 (ten years ago) link

*sigh* TWO episodes tonight plus Untuckeds for both, there is no way I'm going to make it through all of them.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 01:24 (ten years ago) link

YOU BETTAH WERK

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 8 April 2014 01:44 (ten years ago) link

Some wine and Ben and Jerry's might help...

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 01:47 (ten years ago) link

HA I KNEW IT.

No wonder they're doing two episodes tonight.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 05:00 (ten years ago) link

And good lord this second episode is starting out with ALL the claws out.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 05:03 (ten years ago) link

...okay?

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 06:03 (ten years ago) link

I can't tell you how richly satisfying it was to have Ru and Michelle both dress her down.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 06:04 (ten years ago) link

Anyway, Untuckeds for tomorrow SLEEP NOW.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 06:05 (ten years ago) link

Ok guys, here the scoop (I go to a big viewing party hosted every week by Dela and Jinkx). The heckler was Jinkx's veteran from last season who was in the audience. Edited out was Bianca TEARING INTO HIM during her act.

So glad Laganga is out, so happy Ben stays. I was gonna flip every table in the joint if she was sent home.

kate78, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 07:58 (ten years ago) link

You know, I *thought* I recognized that guy!
