RAVEN?

 

[Berly]

No way is Raven doing this what the hell

 

[Dark Carnival]

RAVEN?

IKR?!

Some of these girls are a choice

Raven being cast is a GAG. Obviously a cheap front for crowning her. And I'm totally ok with that. But I feel bad for the other girls who probably feel cheated lol

Will be nice to see Michael Marouli again though.

 

[K.C.]

Tyra is gonna be so pissed.

Can you imagine if Raven doesn't win? Although I would've liked her to win a more worthy season than this.

 

[Joseph]

 

[K.C.]

Sorry but Rihanna wishes. This is closer to Aaliyah coming back to life.

 

[straightorbroken]

Raven is the new black.

Why is no one GAGGED at more NPB content?

THIS! Fuck Raven, roll on NPBFAG

 

[Berly]

I think it’s a stunt

 

[straightorbroken]

I'd be surprised if she wasn't actually on the panel.

 

[dUb]

All signs point to it being legit.

 

[K.C.]

I only know Raven, Lala, and Michael. What are the other queens like (if anyone's watched their season)?

 

[Tisch]

NPBFAG apparently confirmed in a TikTok live that Raven is indeed a contestant. She was also asked by production to change her look in her promo shoot as it's so similar to Raven's but she replied she "didn't care"

 

[K.C.]

She hates Raven so much lol

 

[straightorbroken]

I'd be surprised if she wasn't actually on the panel.

Spoilers on popsquare are out and seemingly on the panel.

Trailer

 

[Music]

Looks like they have more of a budget this time around! I'm still not convinced that Raven will be an actual contestant.

 

[dUb]

Yeah it appears from that trailer that it's just another hilarious fakeout

 

[straightorbroken]

Which is actually kind of patronising to the actual contestants at this point

 

[straightorbroken]

Strewth, I'm starting.

 

[straightorbroken]

NPB-FAG already sending me.

 

[straightorbroken]

Thank god none of these queens are buying it from Raven.

 

[straightorbroken]

The colour of Raven in the workroom. I'm cringing. It might just be the bleached hair.

So she is actually a contestant after all?

 

[straightorbroken]

Not buying that Raven made that wig by herself. Unless she really was this crafty in her original seasons.

 

[straightorbroken]

So she is actually a contestant after all?

So far, but I still have my doubts.

 

[straightorbroken]

Some sloppy editing here on the runway, particularly cutting Reece off before Nicole comes out.

 

[straightorbroken]

Miss Jade asking La La if she's NPB and La La saying yes

 

[straightorbroken]

When the lip sync song started I suddenly mistook Beks for BESS and got rather excited.

 

[Music]

Solid first episode, Miss Jade is STUNNING. Still not convinced about Raven, was that Michelle phoning her at the end?

 

[Berly]

Stacked cast! Looks to be a great season! I do think Raven is a contestant now… too much stuntery will backfire. Surprised but positively. Great start.

 

[straightorbroken]

I would have had Raven top over the UK queen then, I just loved that wig. I wonder how her lip syncs will read these days. They're not stunt-laden, but I genuinely think she's great at them and her own song choices especially good taste going on all those old Mickey's uploads.

 

[Joseph]

Yeah some of the placements were odd but overall a fun first episode. Coco already having a sad story and that awful outfit had me believing she was the first out.

 

[K.C.]

Definitely strange placements. Estrella was easily bottom 2 for me.

It's too late of a gag for Raven to not be competing anymore. She definitely had one of the stronger looks but the pants weren't great. And I think that wig is very plausible for her. There's no way she hasn't learned a trick or two, if not especially for this season.
