I'm just saying she smply outperformed Nelly in the challenges presented this season. I still don't think this is accurate to say- but to each their own 6 hours ago, Hexchromatica said: they're setting up a Season 5 Jinkx 2.0 win with Nehellenia From your lips to god's ears! The difference is that jinkx was dominating the challenges and actually being given the wins for it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it's not about rigging, sometimes it's clear someone did better than you and that's fine. The only win I think Nehellenia could've taken was the Girl Group challenge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Drag Race has gotten pretty "corporate" over the years but damn. Really? And not Kween saying "thank god, that was going to be boring" when the alarm sounded just as Nelly was starting to talk. Alyssa usually does well during branding challenges. Kitty hasn't done one that I know of, and Kween ended up flopping around on the stage in the lip sync for hers. Idk about Tessa or Nelly. If they can make it funny then they may be okay. Kitty might do well if she can make it fun and make sense. Fingers crossed we get a Kween/kitty bottom two with a double sashay for a gaggy as **** finale. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah was gonna point out how painful this little segment round the table was: from Tessa's interview naming all Top 5 queens she went for the shady tone + laugh when she got to Nelly, Alyssa asking if anyone expected to see themselves in the Top 5, and after everyone said yes she goes "did you, Nelly?", then Kong saying that after the alarm... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way she could genuinely think her busted construction worker ass drag is better than any of the ESL queens.... right? I don't think they've had problems with anyone else from the cast except Nehellenia? Soa, Gala, Tessa, Vanity have had confessionals saying Nehellenia is shady or fake or implied worse in some way. Idgi but the editors are clearly not showing us whatever is rubbing the queens the wrong way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HonourableVomit Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 I've come around to thinking Kween's psycho attack was actually kind of camp. Keep saying "i can see your beard omg" to my sisters and making them really uncomfortable. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThehushSound Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 (edited) Poor Nelly is going to get hounded by whatever 3 queens make the top 4 with here especially if Tessa makes top four as well. Imagine Kong's meltdown if Alyssa or Shitty butt plugs gets sent home. Edited October 10 by ThehushSound 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just snorted at shitty butt plugs omg And yea this edit is so weird bc if they're editing out all of the unlikable moments from Nehelenia, then that gives me hope that maybe she could potentially win! I just don't wanna get my hopes up. the other problem with this season is that they casted Alyssa and have stuck her in the background the ENTIRE season. Maybe she just wasn't giving them enough material. She's clearly more careful and thoughtful about how she's presenting herself this time around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about Alyssa, she clearly has her pageant front up and is very careful about how she might be perceived. You could say she is in her Switzerland era. Neutral.

Life Savers Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Nelly has done well but she did not dominate the season in the way Jinkx did. Season 5 arguably also had one of the most competitive if not the most competitive cast the show has ever had. I do think she'd make a good winner but the comparisons are mostly because of the underdog versus click narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almodusa Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Finally caught up with this show! Okay so yeah some weird judging decisions (Soa being in the bottom for that cocktail dress?) at times but overall this isn't horrible the way Twitter folks are making it seem. Vanity!!! Eva's talent show Quite surprised at the lack of Alyssa payola Also I love Ru's runway looks, she's doing different silhouettes this season! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like there definitely won't be a reunion after how horribly this season was received. It seems like left and right they've been trying to sweep this season under the rug as much as possible. The fact that they didn't do a huge press tour with the whole cast prior to the season, no pit stop, weekly ads feel like they're kept to a requirement rather than really trying to maximize reach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GotMyBlueprint Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Alyssa being gifted the final challenge win so they can try to justify a crowning last second I'm betting. Sapphira CHRISTal being robbed by the Banana tribute act only a few months ago teas. As long as Shitty and Kweef lose, I suppose. Also, Tessa easily won that lipsync 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see the hunger to get into that top 4, but unfortunately Kween had to be kept around because of her 3 wins (not that I agree with them, let's be clear). Tessa you are and will always be a star, 5th out is a lovely placement and some of the most iconic Drag Race queens filled that spot. I'm sure she'll be back someday and will truly storm the competition, the upgrade from Germany S1 to GAS was already astounding so I can't imagine how much better she'll be in a few years' time. I guess Alyssa's win was justified, although it could've also gone to Kitty. Alyssa's runway was a standout though so that's probably why she won. Nehellenia never-below-safe Aruta I know that's f*cking right!!! The STAR that you are 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draper. Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Tessa won that but we know how this goes… But yas! Lipsync Lalaparuza next week! Hopefully Vanity or Tessa win that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Gaga Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Didn't watch the ep yet but Tessa T know the star that you are. I remember when the cast was just being Nancy drewed and everyone was like wtf why her out of everyone from Germany. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
