Actually I could probably do a season ranking based on lip syncs alon-oh who am I kidding of course I will

6 (three letters: TKB)
2 (Shangela, Sahara, Raven, Morgan, Tatianna, Jujubee, nuff said)
5 (mostly classics [Oops I Did It Again and Party in the USA never happened, right?] which has to count for something)
-
3 (pros: MacArthur Park [which I still don't think was as one-sided as history remembers it but that's for another ranking], Straight Up / cons: the words "drag is not a contact sport" come to mind)
8 ("IIIIIII'M NOT GOING" *beads go everywhere, nearly killing Thorgy Thor in the process* is iconic. Props for actually doing a good lip sync to a Blondie song for once, too)
AS2
7 (containing some great lip syncs [Twist of Fate, Break Free, LOVERGIRL], but also containing the Pearl Smash. Swings and roundabouts)
-
4 (the Natalie Cole lip sync was offset by each and every time a wig was removed. Also what the **** was Mi Vida Loca all about)
1
-
AS1 (not even Latrice Royale doing There's No Business Like Showbusiness can save this)

Vogue, It's Raining Men, You Make Me Feel (Like a Natural Woman) & Keep On Keepin' On should push s4 up a bit :nono:

I was about to say the S6 ones weren't that great aside from TKB's... but Joslyn/Laganja, Dela/Darienne (part I) and April/Vivacious all bopped too.

I would venture that AS2 has been the worst for lipsyncs :shrug: just for obvious reasons of it not being that urgent for the queens really. I didn't even rate Tati/Alyssa that highly.

MB. 02-10-2016 11:43 PM

Yeah those rankings aren't really concrete or scientific and I'll probably have completely different opinions on them this time tomorrow

I think AS2's have been good from a technical point of view (is that even a thing when it concerns drag queens miming to pop songs? idk) but they're missing any sort of urgency or tension. Thinking about it, I'd probably put them beneath 7 and maybe 4's because I'm easily influenced like that

(oh and Natural Woman had Kenya orbiting Latrice so, um... yeah)

UserSince2005 02-10-2016 11:45 PM

4 is the best. imo. maybe its because it the first one that i watch whilst it was airing.

Saph 02-10-2016 11:53 PM

3>4>5>6>2>7>1>8

Shaun 02-10-2016 11:56 PM

I just like Natural Woman because you had the gay ginger from Modern Family and Jennifer Love Hewitt just visibly pitying Kenya Michaels and wondering why on earth she'd even come back <3

MB. 03-10-2016 12:00 AM

Yeah, I can definitely see its... appeal? (Santino's look of disgust at Kenya throwing her wig away almost makes me like Santino. But not quite)

I might do a full, hopefully somewhat better-informed ranking of all the lip syncs in herstory evah if I ever end up with an embarrassing amount of spare time

Shaun 03-10-2016 12:06 AM

lol who'd have the time for that-

as you were

Saph 03-10-2016 12:12 AM

everytime i think of princess i just think of that natalie cole lip sync where she just eyes her up and down

Smithy 03-10-2016 10:48 AM

The queens from AS1 should be allowed on AS3 seeing as they've changed the format (although I'd only want Manilla and Raven tbh)

Braden 04-10-2016 10:54 AM

Adore is going in on Raven Symoné for what she said to her during the first challenge:


MB. 04-10-2016 11:26 AM

Also Lotion Piano is human garbage


Tom4784 04-10-2016 11:42 AM

I'd say cancel him but I don't think anyone was for him in the first place.

Latrice, Juju and Tammie deserve another chance!!!!

also is it controversial to say that I really don't care for Manila at all? I think she's probably the show's most overrated queen

Shaun 04-10-2016 01:05 PM

Finally watched the episode and I understand the outrage tbh, Tati shouldn't have been B2. Detox's was terrible and no one but Michelle was living for it. Also think Tati's was marginally better than Alyssa's in terms of selling the product but Alyssa could just queef and everyone would gag :idc:

Katya won the challenge hands down. But Alaska won the lipsync hands down </3 and come thru Graham Norton for hating Detox's product!

8) Adore
9) Roxxxy
10) Coco

My ranking from week 1 really hasn't changed much at all throughout the season except Detox>Ginger

L****n P***e update: the guy who wrote Sorry, Hands to Myself and about half of Glory hates him

And when Laganja feeling very attacked is the rational one in the argument, you know you've ****ed up


MB. 04-10-2016 09:41 PM

Speaking of ****ty semi-permanent judges, here's a thing that happened:


Headie 04-10-2016 09:49 PM

^ Was just going to post that, he's gonna be great in Kinky Boots. When I went watching it with Billy Porter in it it was amazing :worship:

I don't get why Todrick gets so much hate :laugh: I quite like his stuff he makes tbh

MB. 04-10-2016 09:52 PM

I like him enough as a person but he's waste of a perfectly good chair on the Drag Race panel

Black Dagger 04-10-2016 10:00 PM

I mean he isn't Santino or Carson Cumswallower so that's nice x

Saph 04-10-2016 10:04 PM

I miss Santino, he always kept it real

Finally, something factual on Wikipedia

My condolences to Todrick's hairline, it seems to have passed long ago.
