AND the fact that they're putting her in a cast with girls that the fandom do not appreciate just so she can have the most fan support and her winning doesn't seem rigged It's super weird but ig it makes sense if you think of it like, after a vstheworld season that rupaul hosts happens, international queens that were judged by rupaul are THEN eligible to be selected for regular allstars since rupaul judged them.....ig even if you'd assume that was their allstars lol

I've always been confused cause she is lowkey great to descent in most things related to drag but something about her just doesn't scream winner She's fine, she's objectively great at drag and drag race. She just lacks the sort of star quality that translates into a notable post-Drag Race career because she's more of a jack of all trades type than a standout in a particular area. Good runways, but not anything revolutionary fashion wise that will get her major fashion attention Funny, but it is more of a general simple drag host comedy that isn't going to blow up Moderately good performer, but you're not going to see a Trinity lip sync that leaves a lasting impression on in your memory Personable, but not in a way that makes you want to listen to her now defunct podcast on a weekly basis Music occasionally catchy, but mostly is just the typical c-tier drag music. She's an everyman's classic drag queen which imo is good to have in the winners circle for that representation, people just need to adjust the expectations of where she's gonna be able to go with her career compared to a lot of the other winners.
TROPICUM Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 I agree the final twist is kinda harsh but let's not pretend Monét wasn't robbed of several stars all season long... she deserves her Top 4 spot however she got it.

She'll occasionally serve a look but even her confessionals aren't entertaining like she use to be. It's a shame she'll be in the top 4, it should definitely be Viv there with them at this stage. Absolutely. It doesn't help that she doesn't have a personality too. Disappointed with the rumored AS8 cast. Were there no others to invite?
Shendelzare Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 shea seems to only show some personality in untucked

She's objectively one of the most versatile queen of the franchise. While I agree that she doesn't excel in any of the things you've listed, it's very rare to see someone that can do a good-to-great job in basically everything. I've always thought that she doesn't even put that much effort into what she does, it seems like she has a great time and fun doing IT but she's doesn't have the hunger or the ambition to be above the rest of the cast.
Afferty Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 The new speculated AS cast is a disaster. I hope that it is wrong

While she may not be THE best in any category, Trinity can still create a great look, do decently in improv, lip sync quite well, and do well in comedy. Some people don’t care for her because of the alleged SheDevil thing, and some don’t care for her because of her dual crowning with Monet. I think Trinity is a good winner/recipient of the crown. She can do it all and she’s been around long enough for viewers to connect with her.

Alexis Michelle Heidi N Closet Jaymes Mansfield Jessica Wild Jimbo Kahanna Montrese Kandy Muse Lala Ri Monica Beverly Hills Mrs. Kasha Davis Naysha Lopez i guess i see kandy and jimbo making it far but other than that they're pretty much all wildcards This can either be AS5 or AS6. I can see Naysha and/or Jaymes actually unexpectedly slaying. imagine.. Jaymes joins Shea, Sasha, and Trinity as winners from season 9.

Relampago. Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 I haven’t watched the episode but Monet apparently washing Jinkx to a monologue is hilarious I do not think that bodes too well for Jinx and Swish Swish since this monologue would definitely be more up her alley than Swish Swish, even if Monet has performed this monologue before.
That Bad Eartha Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 As much as I hate to admit it, I still think Jinkx is probably a lock for the crown even knowing that Monet will completely wash her to Swish Swish. She's consistently been the one with the most fan support since week 1, is the only winner ever guessed by all the pit stop guests, the judges will truly give her a star every time she's in striking distance of the top whereas most of the others have been robbed or overlooked once or twice. Jinkx will do some mid-level DeLa-doing-Anaconda white girl "comedy" for her Swish Swish lip sync, they'll cut to Ru putting on one of his fake lip sync cackles, while showing the least amount of Monet's performance they can get away with without being blatantly obvious.
justlore Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 I started this season as a Jinx's stan, but now i want Viv or Jaida for the crown!

Jinkx wasn't washed by anyone, especially someone that forgot some of the words...

I thought this too but ru’s praise for monet this week does make it a bit more suspect now hihi

TheOnlyOne Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 I'm TheOnly Sugarbaker, Monet X Change's #1 stan. I couldn't help overhearing part of the main thread's conversation And I gather from their comments there are a couple things they don't know, ATRLjorie. For example, they probably didn't know that Monet was the ONLY contestant in Drag Race herstory to sweep the crown AND congeniality Or that when she walked the runway in her sponge dress, 5 racists died on the spot Or that when she emerged from the isolation booth to answer the question, "Why are you worthy of stanning?" She spoke so eloquently of C in the UNTY that grown men WEPT And you probably didn't know, ATRLjorie, that Monet was not just ANY winner She is THEE winner She didn't just put on a p*ssy cat wig That p*ssy cat wig had another one underneath it And when she pulled that p*ssycat wig off her head It flew higher, further, faster than any wig has ever flown before Hitting a transformer and showering the darkened stage with sparks! And when it finally came down, ATRLjorie, my Monet caught the p*ssycat wig And 12,000 people jumped to their feet for a 16 and one half minutes of uninterrupted thunderous ovation as flames illuminated her perfectly beat face! And THAT, Atrljorie Just so you know And your faves will someday know is the night the lights went out in ATRL

TROPICUM Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 Is it bad that I actually cried while the lipsync was happening? Like she's really mother I love Jinkx but She DEVOURED her... like ATE her and PUKED her right out
