Ru spending Crystal's entire interview asking her about her family members' tits... chile

How nice is it to be surprised by an obvious winner losing last minute.
Much much deserved for Jaida! She was strong throughout the whole season and really delivered.
I'm happy Heidi won Miss Congeniality, and Chrystal's solo lipsync was so great. I loved that outfit on the last lipsync.
Congrats to Jaida!

Speaking of which, the editors using stock footage of Ariel Versace and a Zoomed-in video of Rachel Bloom fondling her boobs as reactions to Jaida's win :love:

Iconic :clap1: its what we deserved

I'm happy with Jaida's win but it kind of proves that the finale has no bearing really and that Ru just kind of picks who he wants.

Jaida's lip-sync from home was obviously the most predictable, least creative one of the three, and then Gigi obviously won the finale lip-sync. Jaida was literally wearing an orange curtain it was so obvious it was a cheap reveal.

I also feel like it's kind of based on the popularity now, but Crystal couldn't win with the least challenge wins and the basic final lip-sync performance, and Gigi was the least liked going off social media plus they definitely want her to come back and win All Stars, so Jaida was a happy medium.

Can you say... legendaric?

Saph 30-05-2020 10:35 AM

just finished the ep

Jaida killed the final lipsync for sure, Crystal didnt really do much and Gigi's reveals were so tame I didnt even notice them until after :skull:

I screamed when they did the bit for key workers and Nicky said "thank you to the delivery driver from my local indian"

Crystals bird lipsync was something else :skull: I think she knew she wasnt going to win so just had fun with it.

I'm so happy with Jaida winning, she was definitely the most deserving. the other 2 did good but it just feels right having Jaida win. I think the fan backlash definitely hurt Gigi's chances (which is partly Ru's fault for giving her those unnecessary wins)

I’m so happy for her! A queen who you can tell has so much passion for drag and puts so much effort into everything she does.
I feel like when filming and editing they were setting up for a Gigi win, and maybe the fans did have some influence on deciding the winner - but for me Jaida done better on the show anyway despite Gigi’s better “track record”

Saph 30-05-2020 10:37 AM

I read that Gigi apparently filmed her solo lip sync in a studio and the show told her to re-film at home or be disqualified

Shaun 30-05-2020 11:07 AM

I am fully nourished after perusing over a number of dragracists upset their privileged queen didn't succeed. <3

lewis111 30-05-2020 11:09 AM

I wasn’t expecting to see SO many comments on Insta and Twitter moaning about Gigi being robbed. The amounts of claims that she only one because of the George Flloyd situation :umm2: Can people really not believe that black queens can be talented and win on their own merit?

I've seen so many people saying this.. :rolleyes: definitely the types who tweet #alllivesmatter

A good end to a good season. Jaida is one of the strongest, well-rounded winners we have had in a long while.

I really liked all three of DIY-type lip-syncs but didn’t care much for the other two sets tbh. I’m just happy Jaida won.

Just rewatched Chrystal's solo lipsync, and "wtf" is the only thing that comes to mind. But a good "wtf", as in very creative and completely insane.

I'm happy for her, you can tell Jaida is so passionate and driven and overall a great representative.

Jigs 30-05-2020 01:28 PM

This finale was the best it possibly could’ve been considering the circumstances. Ru’s look was a damn mess but I came to expect it so it was pretty funny above anything else. I thought every single queen looked absolutely incredible tonight, especially Aiden and Dahlia who absolutely slayed it.

Really enjoyed Crystal’s Nelly Furtado lip sync; incredibly well thought out and completely different to what we came to expect from a finale lip sync. HOWEVER, the crafty nature of it was more reminiscent of something you’d see on a mini challenge so I would have ultimately eliminated her at F3 (especially considering she didn’t provide anything wow for the final final lip sync).

Jaida Essence Hall was my winner pick from the very initial cast announcement so I’m very overjoyed she managed to win. Not since Bob on S8 has my pre-season fav gone on to win the crown. I thought she truly BROUGHT IT in her “at-home” lipsync and managed to outshine both Gigi and Crystal using nothing more than a big fan and some Windows Movie Maker effects :love: Her Survivor lipsync was also light years ahead of the other two so a very well-deserved winner on a very positive, fun and consistent season of Drag Race~

Jaida ate that final up, the twinks are rattled!

Samm 30-05-2020 03:01 PM

The finale shocked me as it was probably better then last year's final even though it wad filmed virtually :joker: the tribute to jacqueline was so sweet i didn't know about her at all before, she seemed like the sweetest soul.

In terms of lip syncs, Gigi and Jadia both won the first up-close lip-sync in my opinion and they were all a force in the second lip sync I couldn't really find many faults in their performances. The final lip sync was a Jadia win, she bodied the song with emotion and her look was solid, a clear winner so happy :clap1:

As for Gigi, I don't really dislike her as many do, however her privilege position is defiantly noted and she didn't really perform that great in the second part of the season. I agree with her on her confidence stance she can truly turn looks and I don't necessarily think she's cocky.

anyway can't wait of the year of ESSENCE! :love:

The way Gigi is holding her red cup at the beginning is triggering me :skull:
lol @ Crystal "I was doing a Tik Tok dance!"

Saph 30-05-2020 03:31 PM

Crystal looks so much better there than on the actual finale :skull:

Braden 30-05-2020 03:34 PM

I would’ve paid money to watch either of Crystal’s parents walking in on her recording the I’m Like a Bird lip-sync.
