also most queens who make it even past the first 4 or 5 episodes wind up being big enough in their own right on the RPDR circuit for a few years but like how do you bounce back from this? Inevitably this will define her from here on out
I think, eventually, she'll be able to leave it behind her (Phi Phi *almost* pulled it off), because a pretty face buys a lot of leeway. It won't be easy, of course, but a lot of people are going to give her the benefit of the doubt (rightly or wrongly). All that said: entirely inexcusable. At least she owned up to it.
Any hate spilled onto Nina is entirely stupid (while she and Valentina both contributed to falling into the bottom two, nothing Nina did DURING the lipsync made Valentina unprepared), but then don't bet against stupidity on the Internet and of the people.
OK but let's talk about Sasha and Shea! Yay!

omg they were so good

Saw a comment that it was almost like an audition for their own WOW Presents series. Would watch.

totally. they have great chemistry
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 20 May 2017 20:12 (six years ago) link
I do love their chemistry a ton. Tho I do think Sasha's Russian act suffers from having to follow Katya.

but i have a knee-jerk hatred of hot gay men who think that they're hot/funny/interesting and also i project a lot so

he reminds me of popular gay ppl i've met at parties and bars and stuff who I'm introduced to and are rly standoffish and snobby, did i mention i project a lot?
― he not like the banana (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 20 May 2017 23:02 (six years ago) link
he was a bit too "caricature of a flaming queen" at first but i love his references & i dig his sense of humor

ugh otm stevie
― clouds, Monday, 22 May 2017 01:14 (six years ago) link
i think valentina will be ok. it was shocking and sad in the way stevie describes but i think people recognize her talent, and she wasn't defiant or arrogant about her lip sync disaster like charlie hides. it was a very human failing, people usually empathize with that. also i think i read something about her being pretty popular anyway.
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 23 May 2017 03:54 (six years ago) link
sad for the show tho. i think she was really talented and unique and i hope she gets brought back on the inevitable next edition of all stars.

production crew makeovers in the new ep this week 😃

yeah i saw a clip & the crew are all p cute

No one will ever top Detox's military makeover sister.
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Tuesday, 23 May 2017 17:11 (six years ago) link
Well, I mean, probably someone has and/or will top her *in that sense*
*badumtish*
Also if you see an advance and even breathe a word about it we will hunt you down.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 23 May 2017 17:17 (six years ago) link
After reddit leaked #maskgate last week, I'm not sure I'll get episodes as quickly from here on out.
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Tuesday, 23 May 2017 17:27 (six years ago) link
oh good
― clouds, Tuesday, 23 May 2017 19:22 (six years ago) link
So now that we've all had a few days...who's your top three *now*?
(I would not be unhappy with Shea, Sasha and Peppermint.)
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 23 May 2017 22:06 (six years ago) link
^^^
― clouds, Tuesday, 23 May 2017 22:13 (six years ago) link
yep to that! i wouldnt be mad if trinity was top 3, i like her more & more. I love Pep but seems like she could go either way at this point? like she could blow us all away or flame out totally
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 23 May 2017 22:27 (six years ago) link
Alexis needs to get the heave-ho next AFAIC
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 23 May 2017 22:34 (six years ago) link
is it just me (tm) or is the talent pool not very deep this season? I don't really love any of these queens that are left.

You terrible person.
Way upthread a couple of years back or so, the big change was noted in that there's very little emphasis on creating something in the work room to wear anymore. It's the one element I would change back -- you can tell people already have their costumes and things brought to bear.

i'm in2 Shea, Sasha, and either Peppermint or Trinity in the top 3. Alexis is terrible and I have to say I'm really fucking disappointed with Nina's shitty-ass attitude.
― he not like the banana (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 23 May 2017 23:27 (six years ago) link
Anyone who bombs the Snatch Game is always going to be fighting an uphill battle with me, so even tho Pep has grown on me, I'm not ready to declare her top 3
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Tuesday, 23 May 2017 23:45 (six years ago) link
i understand & am sympathetic to Nina but she is down *so* deep mentally that it's just translating as bad tv
i mean even Shea is giving up on her. at least Trinity K Bonet had a turning point before she went home
i still keep rooting for Nina tho. this seems like pretty much all she has & she's so good when she's performing
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 23 May 2017 23:55 (six years ago) link
wow, that was bleak
― he not like the banana (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 27 May 2017 01:03 (six years ago) link
It was a long time coming, regrettably.
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Saturday, 27 May 2017 01:09 (six years ago) link
Also, Sarge camping it up as Peppermint's sister lifted me up.
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Saturday, 27 May 2017 01:10 (six years ago) link
yeah, it was a long time coming for sure, but I'm really bummed it ended *that way*
― he not like the banana (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 27 May 2017 01:11 (six years ago) link
but apart from the elimination this episode was SO FUN
And, damn, Ru only hires blazingly (if boringly) hot PA's on this show.

Rizzo and Josh could both get it afaic
spoiler alert I was so #TeamSarge it hurts

plot twist of the season, i know
is Untucked done for the season?

true but it didn't look like they sent them backstage at all??
