Yeah, that was alright, right?

The idea was good, even though they couldn't decide if it was a stand-up, roast or inspirational speech moment.
 
The TWIST was interesting, I wonder how that's going to play out. I guess there's no much to do without any eliminations, except a double lip sync win, I'm sure there are two golden plungers.

I felt a bit bad for Yvie - I think Raja and Yvie were the ones who hit the mark the best with the graduation speech side AND the comedy. Jinkx was funny but I didn't REALLY get the inpsiration angle, same with The Viv. Well anyway.

Raja - not my favourite runway, nice as it was (TBH the whole category wasn't really thrilling), but that speech was probably my favourite.

The Viv - wonderful runway, funny speech (not sure how inspiring it was), but her BIT was a bit better than Jinkx's bit. And oh no, not incorrect subtitles for her in Untucked :D

Yvie - The best message, and she was surprisingly good with the delivery. Her laugh is still annoying as fuck, but I like her attitude this season.

Jinkx - I loved that butterfly veil, even if I didn't like the dress that much. The speech was funny, but I feel something a bit rehearsed about it her at the moment (see also Ginger's inspirational AS5 speech).

Shea - Oh another runway you need to explain :boring:. She's a true runway model - great walk, confidence, style, not funny at all

Jaida - Yeah OK she's charming. Dare I say a bit one-note, bitchizzzz?

Monet - I wonder if I would like her more this season but she's the salty Miss Congeniality as usual - didn't like that runway either, iconic? Looks like she got her head stuck.

Trinity - She really is naturally funny and self-deprecating. I like her, an off-week is alright
 
I'd guess the best person to give a star to would be Yvie right? Unless there's some alliance stuff going on, you wouldn't want to give any of the others one because that would put them in the 2-star club with Jinkx!

I wonder if it's a secret ballot, it would be a bit of a gag if Yvie gets two :D

Jinkx really is Bendelacremeing this season and it's a joy to see.

"I WAS HIT BY A FUCKIN' CAR!" :D :D :D

I actually cheered when Raja finally got her star. Shame the lip sync was a dud, but that song was clearly not her vibe.

I thought it was a really strong challenge. Monet the only one who fell a bit flat for me.
 
Jinkx is such a joy to watch. It makes me so happy when she wins. Her speech opener was great. She’s just the best.

I thought Raja had my least favorite runway, and she was so proud of the Voile shtick. Like gurl. I did think the lipsync outfit was gorge and a lot less fussy than her runways.

Eyvie had my favorite runway. Shae’s was instesting and Monet was a cool idea.
 
I enjoyed this episode a lot and loved the runway more than last week’s spikes theme.

Jinkx and Viv were fantastic and had me howling, but I agree with @Diddy about Raja and Yvie giving the best package (especially Yvie considering her runway look).
 
It was a really good episode. Tell'em Raja! She was the only one whose speech was consistently funny all the way through.

"I'm aware of your presence" LOL

Monet has become very unlikable very quickly.
 
Jynkx was surprisingly mediocre at this challenge. I thought Viv did much better.
 
Whilst it was a strong challenge (nay, season!) and everyone turned out the runway this week, I have to say, the fact there hasn't been ANY negative criticism at all is beginning to grate. I mean, I GET IT, but it just makes the whole thing come off as fake. Some (Jaida, Trinity, Monet) were definitely weaker in the challenge than others, but it isn't shown at all. To show light, you need shade (PUN INTENDED) if you ask me.

Nevertheless, I'm splitting hairs. Wonderful to see Raja finally get a star- and deserved- and Jinkx is just running away with it for me so far- which isn't REALLY a surprise, but one that I'm glad is coming to fruition. The Vivienne has upped her game too and made a mockery of my recent post about me not seeing how she would get any recognition.

TABLE

1. Jinkx

7. Monet
8. Yvie
 
Another reason Yvie should have made the top 2 is to FINALLY get a decent lipsync.

It’s either been good lipsyncers with bonkers song choices, or half arsed lipsyncs like this week.
 
Loved the top 2 before the lip sync. I think they should have chosen a queen each to duke it out on stage instead for the charity case star win (and at least it wouldn't feel either like a consolation prize or tactical "I don't think you'll win - enjoy!"

Viv was so lowest common denominator even Bagga would balk. A drag trope that needs to die.
 
Jinkx and The Vivienne were the most accomplished. Even if Viv's idea was a bit lazy, her execution was strong. Raja and Trinity were the next best.

Shea feels underwhelming this season. Monet less so because she's always indexed harder on Charisma and Nerve than Talent.

Jinkx is clearly the most talented of this bunch, but I do wonder whether she would have been able to steamroller the cast if Alaska, Bob and (dare I say it) Sharon had been there?
 
I was thinking I was happy Alaska is not in this season because I want her to win the next one and I think Jinkx would have stopped that.

Willam thinks Alaska is not featured because WoW would want her to compete in same season as Sharon. I doubt the fans care that much about seeing them competing against each other.
 
Hasn’t Sharon been cancelled by “the fans” anyway?

When I was mindlessly scrolling through Instagram drivel, I kept noticing her face blurred out and her name redacted. Nobody will actually say what she did though, I guess I missed that episode of Reddit
 
Didn't the corny bitch literally instruct a teenager on how to SLIT THEIR WRIST?
