The Aimee Yonce erasure has GOT to end! I’ve had it. Officially!

 

safe?! She was top 2! Easily in the top over kitten or Venus. It’s far too much.

No! We need girls to stop making up personalities for an impersonation challenge! (She was funnier than Venus tho and honestly this was Venus’s first miss on the runway)

Yea Venus’ runway was also bad. Aimee’s was cute. But regardless of making up a personality, she was actually funny. Idk, Melinda was really the only funny one anyway. And as someone else said earlier- this season has like 1-2 good challenge performers and then like 6 bottoms each episode :sistrens:

I mean to their credit, I think it was a very clear b3 and re 3 safe girls all did well enough.  These days it’s 5+ bottoms across all franchises

Yea I noticed on Italia? I think- they sometimes call out like 4 girls and 4 get dragged and 2 are praised lol

Ugh, hated that Melinda won. Should have been Kitten or Venus. 

 

And so obvious she would have saved KiKi. And Aurora clearly ate Luna up in the lipsync. Great look queen but was never meant for acting challenges.

This is a very fun season. The save from the bottom twist needs to be become the new AS format.

Melinda did well in the challenge and her makeup was actually on point. I’d have put denim in the bottom over Aurora but whatever. Denim looked the best I’ve ever seen them on the runway… in a costume, covering up just about everything except for their face.
 

Aurora’s character was interesting and had a lot of potential but she just didn’t take it far enough. Her runway was spectacular and she definitely won that lip sync. 
 

Kitten definitely was the stronger of the two Jennifer Coolidges. Personally, Nearah should’ve been up for elimination based solely on the fact that she didn’t bother to bring a backup for snatch game. At least Kitten had one.

 

Venus did look like Joe Exotic. There was just enough there that I felt her place in the top was warranted. Her outfit was okay. I want to get her credit because she didn’t have all the same steampunk bits that almost everyone else had (top hat, goggles, etc). 

 

For me, Aimee’s runway was forgettable. Had we not seen Gay Jesus not long ago on DRDU, I would have probably enjoyed it a little more. 
 

Luna… was the correct choice to go home tonight. Her runway was nice but super generic. Showing some ass is nice but make it clever or fun. Wearing a corset and Panties with some steampunk **** attached and carrying a bunch of tool in each hand does not a steampunk runway make. 
 

Im starting to lose interest in Kiki. She does well in fashion challenges and her runway package is one of the best on this season. the end. I’m not seeing that much versatility and in this competition, that is important. 

Any guesses as to who will go home next week? Melinda, Nearah, and Aimee are my guesses for bottom three. After Nearah straight up said she would throw the strongest competition into the bottom two given the chance, I can’t see her being saved. Aimee is fading into the background. Melinda… after what happened last week/untucked this week… you can’t give up just because you have a bad week. Her attitude sucks and she’s been in this industry long enough to know better. 

 

I think each franchise needs to take a slightly longer break to actually source out some better queens. It’s very obvious that we have mostly instant drag queens and only a couple of seasoned performers.
 

CDR as a whole needs some retooling (although I do like the golden beaver twist this season). The inclusiveness of all the judges dilutes the perspective a bit and it seems like they focus almost as much on the judges as they do the contestants half the time. The whole nodding to one another bit is cheesy. Get rid of it. If Brad is going to be the fashion judge, he needs to step up his wardrobe. Wtf was he wearing? Brooke seems to finally be loosening up which is nice but she suffers from the cheesy, fake, forced interactions with the other judges (Brad specifically). Jaida was a pleasure to see on the judges panel. I do like that they are bringing in past queens from other franchises to judge (why the **** they aren’t in drag idk but whatever).

Melinda legend :jonnycat: I have a feeling she's gonna be the new star of the franchise, on the level of Jimbo. These two episodes basically set her on lock for a Rupaul hosted all stars season

Kitten did well, it's really noticeable how these two are the most seasoned performers in terms of improv while the others are just .. there. I would've given the third top placement to Aimee, the choice of the character was derivative but she did have fun with it and interacted with other queens, which I assume is not easy. Venus was just safe to me

Denim having zero screen time probably means she was bottom worthy. Kiki at least put in an effort with her performance, but she was probably in the bottom for the storyline purpose. Aurora and Luna were the correct bottom two and Aurora won the lipsync. It was her best look so far as well.

I find Denim very annoying. After Melinda pointed out she helped make her head scarf yet Denim kept insisting she should have not been saved in a very shady way.

Denim really annoys me and just creeps me out for some reason. I don't like watching her at all :(

Melinda really served one of the best Snatch Games of all time. I love when someone takes an unorthodox character and can be spontaneously funny with it. Some Snatch Games miss the mark for me with how planned out they are - like Venus for example could have been bottom 3 for me and I wouldn't have batted an eye. 

 

I'd love to see Denim leave soon!

Denim being so vocal about it should have been Melinda, the condescending laughter, “Kiki you made the wrong choice I’m sorry!” just felt so unnecessarily rude? Especially after Melinda helped with her outfit…? 
 

At least Venus made up with Melinda immediately afterwards + their body language showed they were on good terms.

 

Also, Melinda’s “I don’t feel I owe Kiki anything” when deciding who to save ajskjdkd, Cut throat ICON!!!
 

And then she ended up saving Kiki anyways…ugh compassionate ICON!!!

Melinda is lowkey carrying this season on her back. The producers should be thankful for that. Without her this season would’ve been very boring

I'm not sure about the results this week... I felt like they amped up the editing for some people to make it seem like they were doing better/worse than they were.

Aimee was robbed of that top placement and Denim/Nearah could've easily been in the bottom, but I'm not too mad all things considered.

 

Luna was a cute girl, but it was her time. Aurora ate her up in the lipsync.

yall are giving Melinda too much credit we aren't laughing with her we are kind of laughing at her :deadbanana:

Melinda serving the drama, the comedy, the personality. Truly the Jimbo of the season, except for the runway.
