Reminder that Anetra is the fan favorite who has 100k more followers than alleged legend Sasha Colby despite being an unknown queen with only 8k followers before the season started and WILL be winning the fan vote if she makes top 4. 

as did mik and gigi hihi

Forgot to mention, the make over challenge is notorious for rigging for the story line sake, so it's hard to see who could go home next week honestly.

 

Luxx, Mistress and Loosey have their own storyline with their beef with each other, Sasha won't be eliminated for sure, and Anetra has her underdog storyline. So who knows.

I would bet money Loosey goes home next week. It really just feels like they aren’t taking her seriously as a competitor

[Venice B]

I think Luxx and Loosey will lipsync next week based on the promo alone. Or maybe Luxx will win the challenge and Loosey will lipsync and be eliminated. But the episode appears to be focused on their beef

I think the promo is making it appear like Loosey chose all (or maybe just Luxx’s) the girls partners and she gave Luxx the bad one. If that’s the case they’ll leap on the moment to have Luxx overcome the sabotage and win the challenge while putting Loosey in the bottom to humiliate her

They could go either way: giving Luxx the win to overcome Loosey's sabotage or make them both lipsync to feed on their rivalry.

I hope Loosey sends her home, but based on Luxx’s confidence outside of the show it seems like she made it to the end

Historically the fan votes really don't matter. It's utilized more for social media engagement than actually deciding on a winner. The show always crowns who they set out to from the beginning regardless.

jinkx (unfortunately) won the as7 fan vote

ra'jah won the canvtw fan vote

blu somehow won the ukvtw fan vote

kylie won the as6 fan vote

danny won the uk4 fan vote

willow won the s14 fan vote

symone had more fan support than kandy

but most of these queens also did better than their peers during the finale so

i agree. the narcissistic bad vibes coming from luxx and mistress... you can see the moments they are gaslighting loosey. she is an easy target for them though with her high school traumas so there's definitely a psychodynamic play going on and even salina pointed that out with how they are feeding off of that energy like two narcissists. there's so much to be said about how they are playing that out unconsciously but i fear it's too much to comprehend for the fans who are living for the DrAmA and ofc the producers need a villain for their narrative 

I can't help but feel the same. Especially I think Mistress (?) saying "Go Salina eat her up" during the lipsync felt really mean-spirited. Like let them battle it out on their own

Especially considering that in Untucked she's like "I'm not coming for her with a malicious intent"

Everyone acting like its decided that Sasha is winning forgot about how Sasha Velour snatched the win from Shea in S9…. 

It's a given at this point. They need Mistress, Lux and Anetra for All Stars. Sashas storyline is just made for the win. She's not good TV but the most polished. Give her the crown and off with her

[Both Sides Now]

Neither Sasha nor Luxx have been in the bottom/low correct? If they make it past next episode they’ll be the first US queens since Bianca to make it that without low placements?

 

It feels a bit weird if they end up with such a flawless track record because they haven’t necessarily dominated the competition IMO.

Sasha was LOW last week. Mistress has also only been LOW once, no bottoms.

Sasha's already been low and Luxx surpassed Bianca's record of most episodes without placing below safe.

Oh yes, I forgot about Sasha’s low placement. One more week for Luxx then. Unless she pulls a Jinkx and falls into the bottom at the last hurdle.

But Crystal M., Jujubee, Bimini, Ella, etc also all won their votes too. I don’t think production cares that much about the fan vote, it’s just that recently the winners have been the fan favorites too. 
 

I think it’s also time to accept that the age of Drag Race IG followers is over. Anetra is only at 350k or so, which is great, but it pales in comparison to s13 and before. How were the S14 girls doing at this point, does Anetra have the potential to surpass even Willow?

And all of them, with the exception of Blu, were clearly productions picks to win since the get-go.  IIRC, Bimini won the UK2 fan vote, but they still went on to crown Lawrence in the end. 

 

The fan votes usually are in line, sometimes they're not, regardless the show always goes with their winner over SMs.

I don’t like excessive highlight but why dies it work on Sasha

Glad flaccid **** is finally OUT but it wouldve been a kii if they had sent LOOSA home  

next episode about to be a kii tho luxx and mib are pushing it a lil at least in the edit. it was also a kii when **** pointed out that loosa said her name when she was just crying on her shoulder in the werk room ksksksksk and luxxxs speech just to drag loosa

Yeah, the way Cuxx says something along the lines of "that's why you never try to sabotage me, it always backfires" or something (paraphrasing) makes me think it's something she says after winning the challenge, or dropping LaDookie to the bottom while she escapes it yet again

Tbh she should be grateful because Luxx should of gone home on the Lollapalooza.

The producers have 0 issues with rigging things towards Yuxx's favor and the lipsync in the threeway lipsync where both Jaxxx and FaDnetra both stomped her out, where they used the excuse "idk I guess Suxx just embodied the song? slay" excuse.

 

These makeover challenges always have shady results, have there been any where the rightful winner actually won? Crystal Meth robbed

And this is exactly why you all need to stop paying attention to High/Low placements  the only placements that matter are WIN and BTM2

Glad she’s making fun of those ridiculous fans

Instagram is kind of dying, and zoomers are not really interested in Drag Race going by the ABYSMAL TikTok numbers these queens (except for the tWINS) are getting. The age of 1 million followers for just reaching the finale is over. Hell, not even 300k at this point. 

If Anetra wins she's definitely getting over Willow tho. But it took would have took her two viral moments + a win to do so. What "viral" moment helped Gigi or Gottmik get to where they are at? Like they gave nothing all season long.
