to Naomi shade, although her appearances on WowPresents are quite hard to watch because she is so void of charisma :p I just find her so beautiful :love:

MB. 04-05-2017 07:15 PM

I think whoever gave Naomi and Kim their own YouTube series was being a tad overly optimistic

Shaun 04-05-2017 07:16 PM

dw on reflection I like her more than Pearl

but I'd even put S4 Phi Phi ahead of her :worry:

Kim can be funny but you have to wait for 3 minutes of incoherent lisping for a diamond to appear

Pretty much.

I'm yet to re-watch it, but I still think its overrated because S7 came before it and was so bad.

Shaun 04-05-2017 07:21 PM

S8 started to go downhill when people thought Thorgy might be a villain.

Braden 04-05-2017 07:29 PM

I swear everyone bar Cynthia and Kim Chi were referrered to as villains at some point or another. Either that or they were too irrelevant (Dax! Laila and Naysha, eeek).

Shaun 04-05-2017 07:41 PM

True - there wasn't a real villain, just everyone getting exasperated with Derrick somehow making top 5. And Bob robbing Thorgy of deserved wins. #JusticeForCookie

Headie 04-05-2017 07:56 PM

Bob is one of the most deserving winners ever IMO, and probably my fave winner along with Bianca.

Chi Chi was robbed of Miss Congeniality, she was a real diamond in the rough <3

I actually really enjoyed Season 8, I don't get the hate, especially with it coming straight after the worst season ever.

Shaun 04-05-2017 08:02 PM

yeah I think it's a great one. Some of the eliminations were suspect (I wouldn't have sent Betty home after being consistently high and doing a semi-funny giving birth lipsync over another pretty leggy tall queen just giving sex) but the challenges were great and so were most of the queens.

It's just Untucked lacked drama and the runways weren't great.

Braden 04-05-2017 08:03 PM

I think the cast was strong but they didn't mesh well with each other. Most of the story-lines were either contrived or boring, and I don't think their was enough cohesion throughout the season on an episode by episode basis. I think that's the reason I like S6 so well because they did such a good job of creating many interesting narratives that flowed throughout the season.

Bob is a good winner though.

Braden 04-05-2017 08:21 PM

I guess the reason I love Naomi so much is because she's essentially me:


MB. 05-05-2017 03:31 PM

So Kimora auctioned her Princess Banana Lady outfit for charity... and, er, Alaska bought it :joker:

Shaun 05-05-2017 03:38 PM

charitable queen :clap1:

I actually really loved her look on the runway :worry: I know I wanted her gone but that was hot as hell. Trinity's imitation a week or two later made it look even better.

Tom4784 05-05-2017 03:39 PM

It was a good look tbh.

MB. 05-05-2017 05:38 PM

In other news, I've just seen a str8 male friend on Facebook share a Todrick Hall video

It's happening :worry:

Shaun 05-05-2017 05:41 PM

I've got a straight acquaintance from uni who I only talk to on Twitter with about the show. It's odd. But I would. So I'm intrigued.

Last night's elimination spoilers

Spoiler:

THANK GOD. I had heard T that this week's B2 would be Nina and Aja (and it was) but the T I heard said that Nina sashayed and I was ready to kill.

Sasha was B3 with them but I can understand why she would be safe (I say this as if I've even seen the episode).

Trinity wins a second challenge! She finishes in the top 3 with Shea and Valentina this week. I'm really pleasantly surprised by how much of a contender she is.

lewis111 06-05-2017 08:28 AM

Spoiler:

This episode showed just how strong this seasons queens are. And the thing that I think makes it most exciting is that so many of them are on par and on a similar level unlike the past few seasons when there's been a clear top 2.
I think a Trinity/Valentina/Shea top 3 would be the perfect choice and there's no filler obvious 3rd place n there like Pearl and Naomi
Good episode Amazing result

lewis111 06-05-2017 08:38 AM

I'm also glad that yet again it was proven that flips and death drops doesn't equal winning lip-sync
But the lipsync was another average one again

MB. 06-05-2017 10:00 AM

I can't believe I really enjoyed an acting challenge :o

Spoiler:

It felt as if they were setting up for a Shea win with a slight possibility of it being Valentina, so Trinity winning came a little out of the blue... not that she didn't deserve it, mind. I'm enjoying how many queens with strong comedic timing/acting skills there are left, considering none of them are actually comedy queens. I'm glad the long-rumoured Nina/Aja lip sync finally (geddit?) came to fruition, even if they could have done a better job for that song, and although I like Aja she was near the bottom of my rankings so I'm happy with the result. This season seems like it's back on track!

MB. 06-05-2017 10:06 AM

...of course, AVClub only gave this episode a B+ because whoever does the Drag Race reviews over there is a joyless monster

Daniel-X 06-05-2017 04:15 PM

Spoiler:

Again a really great episode, the queens this season are really strong and I wouldn't say there's any filler queens left now (well maybe Farrah but she did really well this challenge tbf). I thought Valentina should've won the challenge hands down, Trinity was funny and good but not as amazing as the panel were making her out to be. The FIRST lip sync of the series were BOTH of the B2 actually gave it their all :love:

Rankings:

1. Valentina
2. Nina
3. Shea

4. Peppermint
5. Trinity
6. Farrah
7. Sasha

8. Alexis

lewis111 06-05-2017 06:33 PM

1) Nina
2) Trinity
3) Shea
4) Sasha
5) Valentina
6) Peppermint
7) Alexis
8) Farrah

Farrah is the weakest preformer there and is only being kept because she appeals to a large part of the audience
But, I don't mind her anywhere near as much as I do other queens who fill that role like Naomi, Fame, Pearl etc because I think she tries harder than most of them and is more likeable (still my least Fave left but that's only because these girls are so talanted)

Shaun 06-05-2017 08:42 PM

I don't want to post any spoilers but there's a couple I've read up on and oh boy we're in for a tumultuous few weeks :worry:
