Watched the reunion before I left for work this morning and tbh I don't really see where this support for Vixen has come from. I know that the Eureka comment of "trying to test her" was uncalled for (but tbh, I think it was just a throwaway comment about the girl who literally came in saying she wants to fight, and had just thrown up drama with Miz/Aquaria for literally no reason... and also think it was just more... pathetic from Eureka and like a childish moment of "I KNEW SHE'D DO THAT, I KNEW IT" rather than actually calculating?) but it still doesn't excuse Vixen's conduct later on in the season. Let's not forget this is the queen who:

- Took everyone saying she should be eliminated as a personal attack and a key to suddenly go "**** all of y'all, you're all fake, you're not my friends" when EVEN EUREKA didn't choose her.
- Said Eureka should sashay away for Snatch Game when she was clearly the 2nd best performer that week, again proving her lack of professionalism and wild bias.
- Didn't even give Eureka a chance and based her off of 3? 4? weeks of a Season 9 showing. If we're going to bemoan the editing and the cameras building up her ABW trope and how wrong that is, you can't in the same breath say "I didn't like you based off the same editing tricks I am criticising".

I'm sorry but her attitude stank at the reunion and whilst Asia had points, the way she tried to come for Monet was ridiculous. She didn't have any of her quotes and receipts right, and she just looked stupid. And absolutely no moment of "I came to say what I wanted to say and now I'm going to leave BYE" is ever going to scream "moderate, considered, reasonable woman". I give huge props to Asia for trying to defend her and say we shouldn't give up on her - and in spite of this paragraph :laugh: I don't, I think she's very talented and exciting and interesting - but I fully agreed with Ru that you can't reason with someone who doesn't want to be reasoned with. And I think all the fans attacking Ru are just trying to kick someone who's recently been problematic for other reasons (the trans queens comments, the weird pseudo-psychology stuff, the stupid S9/AS3 production twists)... and obviously there's the problem that she ostensibly doesn't care about too many of the queens unless they're making her money. Fair criticisms but honestly, some of the crap I've seen said about her (she's "racist", she's "out of touch", she's "basically white now") is just tired.

From the rest of the reunion... eh I enjoyed it? Some of the subject matters were a bit odd though.
- Discussing the amazing lipsyncs but including Monique/Vixen and not mentioning Mayhem/Yuhua or Kameron/Monet?
- Discussing the runways and using... Miz Cracker's silver fox look? Really? It was bland and didn't even meet the challenge criteria. If you're going to pay it forward to her delusional fans, use the Birdcage look or the handbag hair look. :shrug:

It did get a bit too sob-story after Vixen left and all-in-all it wasn't as gaggy as S9's reunion with Aja going off, Charlie being killed, Farrah bringing up seventh-grader level drama, etc. But I enjoyed it.

Re: the Kameron drama... hmm... I guess it's weird because it's something we wouldn't ever have been privy to... but the sheer number of queens who had a problem with her makes me wonder if it's true. I can't see Monet, Blair, Monique, Kalorie, Dusty AND Yuhua all having a problem with her standoffishness as an act of conspiracy. Like, there's being shy and then there's the stuff they accused her of... granted, she wasn't "Valentina" levels of FAKE BITCH but still, I can't help but think there's something beneath her :) gosh i'm just so introverted :) edit.

Shaun 23-06-2018 03:46 PM

PS. I hope the white teen fans don't lump on Asia for getting so choked up and voice-cracky. She is probably the biggest heart of the season and it honestly sucks that so many got worked up about a comment she literally apologised for the episode after even without Cracker there to hear it. Idk if anyone saw her tweet about being bullied as a kid/receiving continual death threats and that all being brought back up again but ugh </3 my heart breaks for her.

Spoiler:

Especially knowing what's coming on Thursday. I PRAY it's not edited as horrifically as it could be because... that is some next level horror I didn't expect of this show.

RileyH 23-06-2018 03:57 PM

I don't understand why they were coming for Kameron so hard :skull: Like honestly with the amount of big personalities you can't blame her for being a tad intimidated and I don't think she means to come acorss standoffish/rude but I've had the same kinda problem :shrug:

RileyH 23-06-2018 03:58 PM

Oh and I knew it was coming but I still screamed @ Vixen walking out :joker: queen

Asia really dissapoited me at the reunion. Vixen is a grown up, trying to insinuate those who never ran to stop her leaving are bad people pissed me off.

Vixen is a mess and she chose to run away and nobody should be expected to run after her like a mother caring for a child having a tantrum.

Asia snappt

Saph 24-06-2018 10:26 AM

I honestly despise Vixen so much, she ruined the season for me

Tom4784 24-06-2018 11:26 AM

I dislike her but I do appreciate her fine contributions to Untucked.

Not here for shade against Asia though, the TRUE Ms Congeniality of the season.

There have been aggressive queens on the show before who haven't been required to apologise for their behaviour. Throughout the discussion about The Vixen's fight with Eureka, in particular, I understand why she got pissed off and felt there was no point in explaining herself. The Vixen wasn't wrong whatsoever during her argument with Eureka, yet Ru still used it as an example of how she was a needlessly aggressive person who has a serious problem to overcome. Most of the queens agreed because I think they're conscious that it could help them get on future All-Star seasons.

I think in terms of whose side you take, it comes down to whether you think The Vixen does have a problem with how she conducts herself. Personally, I genuinely don't think it's that much of an issue, but I appreciate Asia's sentiment about how you have to fight these situations with love. Also, it's amusing how The Vixen's role as the aggressor comes up with the Aquaria/Cracker situation (obviously trouble was going to be caused there, I won't deny it), but all she set out to do was tell the truth. Afterwards, the Aquaria and Cracker storyline was never highlighted again, as the situation being exposed allowed them to talk about it. The Vixen actually did us a favour by exacerbating the problem, allowing the both of them to get it out and the open, and then saving us from a tedious storyline.

Rupaul is the biggest villain of this season

Period.

Let Bianca Del Rio take over.

RileyH 24-06-2018 02:00 PM

I've been slowly going off Ru ever since those comments towards trans, but and argument with Asia didn't help that. I'm over her

Asia is a legend honestly, the way she defended Vixen and was so passionate towards it :love:

Ru was obviously gearing up to yell at Vixen but Vixen left before that happened so poor Asia got it instead. It was a bizarre outburst tbh, very unneeeded.
