Close one between Crystal and Jaida. Really looking back at Gigi's outfits, there were nice but boring. Yes it's fashionable but where's the spice and the spirit?

I watched both this and the previous episode in one sitting because I guess even in a quarantine I can't find the time to watch the last one last week :unsure: so here're my thoughts on both episodes...

Penultimate episode
I generally didn't care for Jackie throughout the season but she should've won this one. Her routine was heartfelt, funny, smart and a big risk for her. I know Crystal has deserved a win for a long time but it was not this one: her exotic dancer thing was just... a bit lame, to be honest. I didn't think much of it. Sherry was the only other one who did good, but obviously ran over and shouldn't have won as a result. Oh Heidi... Heidi Heidi Heidi :( she could've had something if she stuck to just two characters, and I loved her gown... and I know Jaida was messy but I still laughed more at her performance than I did at Gigi's :idc: Call me a hater, this was a third week in a row that Gigi should have lipsynced... but at least it gave us a 10/10 Jaida lipsync in lieu of that robbery.

This Episode
Yeah the performance just really didn't impress me :shrug: just found it corny and the 4 white girls really just... showed their whiteness when it came to the rap, lmao.

OK so I'll be reasonable here: I hated Yvie Oddly a LOT. She was awful. She is awful. But when it comes to "top 5 performance challenges having a standout winner"... SHE WAS ONE. GIGI WAS NOT. Name one thing Gigi did better at than Jaida here. I'll wait. So why the HELL does everyone just get called "safe" at the end of S11 and now we throw another god-damn bone to Gigi this time? God I love this season but the ****ing favouritism is giving me an aneurysm.

Disappointing final looks too... Sherry's was great, and I loved Jaida's dress but didn't see the point of the black cape. Gigi's was nice, but again, costumey... and Crystal's was odd but not entirely in a WOW WINNER way.

Jackie was obviously the weak link and that's fine, but these past two episodes at least helped me appreciate her more.

For me, the season would be judged thusly...
