Yeah, I think she's All Stars material tbh. I think she was just overwhelmed by the experience the first time around but I think she'd bring it if she had another shot.

https://zippy.gfycat.com/BadTerribleBengaltiger.gif 97th Place: Pearl (Season 7) - finished 3rd (officially "runner up" with Ginger but, I mean...) I keep trying to convince myself that I'm not at all a hater and that all of my rankings and reasonings in this rankdown thus far have been largely justified but I suppose I have my biggest struggle with my conscience when it comes to "where do I put Pearl?" Season seven had a very bad reputation despite giving us some of the show's strongest ever and most successful queens (Trixie, Katya, Kennedy, Ginger, Violet) let alone JASMINE MASTERS, and I definitely got wrapped in my "THIS SEASON SUCKS :mad:" bubble at the time. Since then, with repeated rewatches, the hate has fizzled... but my confusion at Pearl's trajectory on the show has not. I know it's terribly reductive to say that Pearl only made the top three because the judges thought the fans would love her because #trade... but seriously, can anyone pinpoint a challenge she excelled at? Because off the top of my head... - She TANKED the Shakesqueer challenge and didn't even land in the bottom two. "Cheerleader tryouts are happening today". What the ****? I can only imagine Kennedy got put with Jasmine because Jasmine's squat-thrusts to "I Was Gonna Cancel" would've KILLED Pearl. - She was the dirt-worst dancer in the "half man/half woman" challenge that Trixie was sent home again for, but they decided to judge them as pairs; Pearl was thus saved by Kennedy's chops. - SHE WORE A ****ING BLANKET FOR THE HELLO KITTY BALL AND FINISHED TOP TWO? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WITH A BLAND MADONNA SIDEKICK? I thought I'd buried this anger but I guess not. There was, however, the make-over conjoined twins challenge to bring back Trixie... and really, who do you think won that for them, with the idea to make one of the twins a busted, braces-wearing geek? :think: Pearl's other win came for an admittedly good DESPYS Awards presentation with Max; her impression of Ginger particularly stood out. I remember posting on here that I genuinely didn't get the fuss about Trixie Mattel (because she was painfully unfunny on the show. Both times :ninja2:) and I am actually one of the very few who actually thought Pearl won that lipsync... but of course it's probably the most contentious of all time (even though I would venture that "Peppermint beats Trinity Taylor" was FAR more questionable...) The fact that Pearl would go on to survive one more lipsync - a true contender for the worst of all time, against Miss Fame to Demi Lovato's "Really Don't Care" - was further bewildering. Of course, though, Pearl's cardinal sin was making the top three over Kennedy Mother****ing Davenport, and that is a case of the show buckling to the twatty fans' demands that I will never forgive. Production riggor morris was something I'd never really considered until S7/AS2, and the constructed nature of her talking heads (most notably: someone "throwing a glass of water at Pearl to wake her up! lol!") was particularly absurd, too, and stank to high heaven of trying to give her an arc that nobody was interested in. As I said - I'm being slightly unfair on Pearl here because her Snatch Game (as Big Ang, RIP) was pretty bloody good actually, and I do get the impression she's not as terminally dull as the edit suggests... but there were so, so many better queens than Pearl on this season that it's only fair I take it out on her by putting her below Sasha Belle. Memorable quote(s): "Is there something on my face?" Best Runway(s): 100% the Jetset Eleganza challenge. She has a lot of good ones but this was brilliant. I would understand if you made a case for the bearded queens look, though. Best Moment(s): Sasha Belle saying she should go home on the first challenge <3 |

https://78.media.tumblr.com/eaeb9cd5...MNw1qddzt0.gif 96th Place: Sasha Belle (Season 7) - finished 13th Just as a run-on from the previous ranking, may I add how pissed off I was by Pearl's toxic narcissism? Calling Sasha "John Goodman in a wig" after episode one was just ridiculously childish and ugh I'm glad I've thrown her out early now. BORING COW. Sadly, Sasha wasn't much more exciting. One of the tropes of reality TV is casting someone who professes liberally about how they've "cracked the code" and know what it takes to win, only for the cards to fall drastically against them. Sasha is the immediate example of this, to me: she came in as a self-proclaimed superfan but then wore a visible black bra in a sewing challenge to look naked :think: Remarkably, Sasha avoided the bottom two that first week because Kandy Ho had resurrected the spirit of Willam on her face - but there was no saving her in episodde two.... even though the only thing she really did wrong was struggle to take off a hairclip during that Glamazonian Airways challenge. Were it not for one of the weirdest and ill-fitting runway choices of all time, she could just as easily have escaped scrutiny here again. You might be asking how she's lasted so long in this rankdown, and NO, the answer isn't: because he looks like this out of drag, now. The answer is this very small, split second moment of the conjoined-twins challenge lipsync. In an episode where Ginger audibly expressed her discontent with being paired up with Sasha, despite all of Sasha's adoration towards her </3 there came one brief, iconic lipsync moment that saved Ginger's disastrous titties from herself. Said moment is at 1:20 here. That pussy pounding the floor whilst Ginger cuddles her pillow <3 ugh. A lipsync gem. Memorable quote(s): "How can you say I was basic? I wore a...lobster dress :(" Best Runway(s): I guess it'd have to be the Lobster Dress. Best Moment(s): Writing "Ginger for the win!" after she was eliminated <3 a queen with taste *not really remotely sorry, since I owe you nobodies nothing |
Pearl is a legend and should NOT be below Sasha ****ing Belle

not sasha belle :joker: isnt she trying to be a male model now

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/...20160208184011 95th Place: Gia Gunn (Season 6) - finished 9th There's going to be a run now of queens whose low placements are, perhaps rightly, going to upset many of you - but when compiling this I guess I prioritised likeable people and underdogs over queens that were overbearing and extremely nasty on the show. Gia Gunn is absolutely one of the latter, and her prejudices towards Milk and Darienne Lake left an extremely sour taste in my mouth. I know for a fact that she's matured and enlightened herself since season 6 and is now a far more tolerant/open person and has a good rapport with a bunch of established queens, but... Spoiler: Gia's short stay on the show was summarised by playing second fiddle to Hurricane Laganja, calling themselves Team Too Much. Together they dominated the drama of the season, and Gia's talking heads varied between genuinely hilarious and skin-crawlingly awkward and lacking in self-awareness. The original Kimora Blac, Gia fumbled some not-all-that-obscure references ("What's a Tony?", "What's a DeLorean?") and could've settled nicely into the loveable dumb girl role if: a) Joslyn Fox wasn't also in the cast b) She wasn't so unpleasant. Her coming for Milk might not look so bad now that Milk's shown her true colours in Allstars 3, but there was just this really acidic way with which Gia attacked her. Her exit, turning to the other queens and saying "You guys are all still dudes", and then the credits interview where she said "I'm upset that there's other crossdressers still in there that came to a drag show dressed as boys" was just... not good. At all. The show has put up with a ton of queens complaining about how to drag correctly and putting themselves in boxes that leave absolutely no room for creativity, but to my knowledge, Gia was the absolute worst for this and was in desperate need of someone to smack her and open her eyes. Thankfully, Joslyn did this in Untucked, calling her ignorant. All of this aside, I am fully prepared to embrace Gia as an Allstar if she continues with her knack for a good soundbite and ditches the superficial bitchiness. Memorable quote(s): "This is the Olympics of drag, honey, and ****'s getting gaggy." "I don't jump guns, I am the boom boom gun, honey." "I'm feeling my oats! Let me feel my oats!" "Feeling like pussy, feeling like **** x2" "How is she, though?" Best Runway(s): I didn't actually love any of them but this was probably the best one: http://i.imgur.com/k9yhTHv.png Best Moment(s): "I didn't quite cough like a man, but ok." |
Lol I love Gia, I found her hilarious <3

https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ba/6b...0177a93447.jpg 94th Place: Milan (Season 4) - finished 9th I feel like when a queen ends her introduction on the premiere of a new season with "...and you don't want it from her!" you're probably setting yourself up to prove a point. Milan entered with the token broadway campy music accompanying her, and sure enough ran right off the bat with a bunch of quips about how she couldn't be pigeon-holed, and her talents and inspirations were sooooo far-reaching and different. Her pretense got her wrapped up in all sorts of problems: despite being one of the few season four girls with acting experience, she bombed at the Tuckahoe sitcom challenge and had to send Madame LaQueer home. Despite being from the political, woke side of New York drag, she failed to resonate with the message of Stonewall during the Hope Floats challenge and ended up being sent packing by Jiggly. And despite her supposed savvy intellect, she tried dressing up as Whitney Houston to advertise a CD by...RuPaul. I suppose - whilst not all that bad and actually quite good TV - my biggest gripe with Milan is that she tried too damn hard to be extra and steal scenes. Her interactions on Untucked were particularly embarrassing and often resulted in her having her ass handed to her: most notably by Willam in this iconic moment: "Is the carpet comfortable?" ugh. Queen. She seems to have disappeared from the drag race circuit despite being one of the more memorable names from a big, fan favourite season... and having looked at her Facebook there were some weird pretentious ramblings a few years ago about being unappreciated and disrespected, that it's all just... vague and tiring. So that's why Milan drops out early. Memorable quote(s): "Coloured girl: why your base look like chalk?" Best Runway(s): Her only bad one, really, was her Hope Floats one. I would personally argue that [url=http://i.imgur.com/vRME2tQ.png]this was one of the absolute best RuPocalypse runways and should 100% have been in the top 3. But no, Lashauwn shoved a globe on her head and Princess wore something too clean so they deserved the top placings... despite still being read by Michelle. I guess. Phi Phi, Milan, Sharon = the correct top 3 that week :idc: IJS. Best Moment(s): She sent home Kenya Michaels, so thank you? In fact that Milan/Kenya lipsync is super underrated. Both killed it. |

https://media2.giphy.com/media/l46CA...QS52/giphy.gif 93rd Place: Naysha Lopez (Season 8) - finished 9th Naysha is one of many, many queens that I have a strong recollection of their elimination being unjust. Naysha, of course, encountered two - but one of them was fair enough. The first one, obviously. That RECTANGLE GIRLS OF THE WORLD... challenge was a mess from start to finish: Bob the Drag Queen slagged off Lorde and fought with Lucian Piane (the final tipping point into his drug-addled Nazism?), a team won for calling each other kinds of mustard, and none of them were Thorgy, and the bloke from Blondie (correctly) read a queen for wearing the same shoes during the challenge and runway. I did actually love this episode because it redeemed Robbie Turner fully, and had a brilliant runway (plus 2/3 of the teams did good) but I can't wrap my head around the justification for Naysha leaving for it. Her runway, in particular, that episode is criminally underrated and one of the - if not THE - best bodysuits ever seen on the show, and the lipsync itself seemed to act as a counterpoint to Ru's decision to send Sonique home over Morgan McMichaels back in season two; back then a queen just did flips and cartwheels and didn't concentrate much on the actual lipsync, and got sent home for it. This time she survived :idc: Perhaps if Naysha's wig hadn't fallen off, she could've survived.... but one would imagine she was primarily eliminated because she didn't offer as much drama as Derrick and Chi Chi. The one episode where Naysha was safe, she served up a chilling premonition of Bebe Zahara Benet's Drag Up Your Life verse in the RuCo's Empire challenge, and otherwise did a pretty good job of proving herself to be likeable and polished. Indeed, her departure (the 2nd one) saw her leaving two items of clothing for Chi Chi to use, which is one of those rare genuine good-gestures that the show thrives off of. Naysha's a sweetheart and I'm a big fan of hers, but I couldn't justify her finishing much higher based on the show's performance. Memorable quote(s): Kim Chi: "What about you, Naysha? What's your type?" Naysha: "Men." Best Runway(s): 100% her Neon Runway, but her Roller-Girl was gorgeous, too. Best Moment(s): https://media.tenor.com/images/45f45...b143/tenor.gifhttps://media.tenor.com/images/7cea8...7392/tenor.gif |
https://i.gifer.com/Cozc.gif 92nd Place: Kelly Mantle (Season 6) - finished joint 13th I already regret placing her higher than Naysha/Gia to be honest but the interviews and paraphernalia that I've seen of Kelly off-show just about edged her ahead whenever it was that I arbitrarily decided the order of this rankdown. Kelly entered season 6 as some fans' tip to win, and her talking heads/pre-season interviews, where she threw shade at friend and acting colleague Willam, certainly helped to create an image of Kelly Mantle being a frontrunner... but sadly, show production antics meant that she was placed under a closer microscope than any other set of first-episode queens. Splitting the 14 into two groups of seven meant that Season 6 is the only season where we technically have two queens that finished joint-last (although I suppose season 8 does, too, thanks to Naysha's return) - and it also meant that "nobody could fade into the background". To me, that just sounds like "we want to edit out the boring ones ASAP" and Kelly didn't quite have the OTT energy that her episode's cohorts Gia, Laganja, Vivacious and Adore did (despite Kelly putting together a dress that was more constructed than all of theirs :idc:) The only crime Kelly made was bringing that horrific red wig she decided to pair with her Downton Abbey bacon dress. Truly a Party City nightmare. Otherwise, she was pretty much an underwhelming delight; perhaps best explained by this clip: Off the show she made history by becoming the first ever actor to be considered by the Oscars for both "actor" and "actress" categories in 2014's "Confessions of a Womanizer" (which also starred Gary Busey and the Bella twins from WWE so... make your own minds up as to how likely that nomination would've been). Memorable quote(s): "I'm an actor, but I'm not going to go around reciting my IMDB page like some people." Best Runway(s): n/a Best Moment(s): Offering to school Magnolia Crawford at the reunion. |
love HER

https://media.giphy.com/media/3oEjI1...kbi8/giphy.gif 91st Place: Naomi Smalls (Season 8) - finished 3rd She's a pair of legs and not much else. I will be forever bitter that she stole Chi Chi's final spot for no damn reason, I will be forever bitter that she sent Acid Betty home by rolling around on the stage doing the bare minimum, and I will forever be bitter that she is one of the fan favourites for....no reason. OK so let's get her good points out of the way: she won the Wizard of Oz makeover challenge and rightly so, but can you remember her competition? Literally everyone else performed poorly that challenge bar Thorgy (who by then, the judges had it on for) and Kim (who ruined it with some weird "trading of the brooms" choreo). Outside of that ONE win, I actually enjoyed her performance in the Shady Politics challenge and she did a great job of reading Kim, however ruined it again by literally wearing the same outfit a queen has worn before (Raven's sort-of upside down cone thing). She also absolutely destroyed Derrick Barry in the workroom: However I guess the main reason I'm ejecting her this early - aside from the fact she was really one-note and has a very shallow and uninteresting approach to modeling and fashion - was her tweet she made in response to the attack on the MEN arena last year with the Ariana Grande concert. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DAej-f6W0AADRBT.jpg Sorry... she could be amazing on a future Allstars but I just can't look past how dumb and, sheerly vapid and assholey that was. It's up there with Paris Hilton's "stop being poor" t-shirt, to me. So yeah, **** off Naomi. Also: the MUG webseries was boring af. Memorable quote(s): "And Derrick has thin... hair. :o" Best Runway(s): 100% her Book Ball eleganza look. Best Moment(s): Her family (and mom in particular) were adorable. |
Naomi vs Derrick really is memorable thanks to Bob acting like a fool in the background, otherwise it would have been lame. But yeah, Naomi crucified Derrick.

https://media1.tenor.com/images/768c...itemid=8958792 90th Place: Farrah Moan (Season 9) - finished 8th Another placing I feel kinda bad about is Farrah, but at the same time I really didn't care for her on season 9 so it feels...right. Whilst season eight had a Britney lookalike going too damn far whilst doing nothing of note, season nine had the Xtina one - and I think introducing Farrah to her celeb counterpart in an unseen Season 10 moment is perhaps the first time I've actually felt something whilst Farrah was on screen. That's probably a bit harsh. She was pretty messy and lowkey iconic during the S9 Reunion with her Valentina drama, and she managed to get in a couple of jokes that redeemed her disastrous Roast appearance, but otherwise...? Her best challenge performance was probably the 9021Ho performance, and even then she fluffed her lines a few times. I think every season there's just a pretty girl who's rather inconsequential, and no matter how they tried to make Farrah cute by telling us how her whining was sweet (IT WAS JUST ANNOYING, THANKS), I was left waiting for her to go home. In Farrah's defence, she is exceptionally beautiful and polished and must have some talent to be in Vegas, but we just didn't get much of a taste for it in S9. Memorable quote(s): "I find it hilarious that Michelle Visage judges a talent competition. I don't know about you but don't you actually have to have talent, to do that? And I'm pretty sure having one song in the 90s that no one even remembers doesn't qualify you to be a judge on such a big TV show. Good thing she's been sucking RuPaul's dick for so long." mighta been a roast but points were made Best Runway(s): Her naughty nighties for sure, although the White Party comes close. Best Moment(s): Obviously the guttural noise she made when Eureka was sent home for being "too crippled" (RuPaul's words, obvi) |
WHAT
|
Farrah deserves better
|
She doesn't.
|
I live for Kelly's Vivacious impression.
I just don't care for Naomi. I have a soft spot for Farrah tbh, she was terrible on the show admittedly but I thought she was likable. |
"Lets get this roast a cookin'! :)" always makes me scream, like she really thought she was gonna have everyone on the floor dying after that one opening line :joker:
Farrah dragging that homophobic geordie slag in a kebab shop is about the only good thing she's done tho <3 |
She is lovely yeah, and I do like her, but she sucked on S9 and should've gone home sooner (she did worse than Kimora for the Princess challenge, I think, and would've been slain by Aja in the Holding Out for a Hero lipsync)
|
farrah way too low

https://media.giphy.com/media/IQnG9tF8uUQKI/giphy.gif 89th Place: Sahara Davenport (Season 2) - finished 7th It's hard placing Sahara anywhere in this list given her passing. Season two was a genuine gem of reality television and whilst Sahara wasn't as dramatic a part of it, she was truly a radiant and impassioned performer and gave her all to the three lipsyncs she was involved with. I guess she's also the first ever queen to give us a jump split on the show, and well, that's a legacy that carries on. As I've said, she wasn't quite involved with all the fights that season (Raven vs. Tati, Morgan vs. Mystique, everyone vs. Tyra) and so it seemed inevitable that she would be sent home sooner or later for not delivering on the "good TV" front, but Sahara managed to win a challenge (the poledancing / Cherry Pie! one) and left the season with a pretty strong sisterhood. If Miss Congeniality actually meant something, she would've won. Sahara is also remembered for being the ex-partner of Manila Luzon, and of course sharing a house dynasty with Kennedy. The Davenports - just by these two showings - are a name to be reckoned with and they deliver some of the best dancers the show's ever seen. Memorable quote(s): Watch from 19:35 :( Best Runway(s): Hard finding pics but this one Best Moment(s): The little scream of "YAY!" before she realised she'd sent her friend Shangela home <3 |
Farrah was done dirty I'm sure there's worse than her still to come :nono:
Sahara was always a bit invisible for me so.. :shrug: on her placing |
https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/...20160424141657 88th Place: Jade Jolie (Season 5) - finished 8th As "meh" as her impersonation of Taylor Swift during the S5 Snatch Game was, in a way it was a perfect choice for Jade Jolie: because despite a heavy "holier than thou" sugary, innocent exterior, there is a rotted nasty beast in Taylor Swift and I think Jade went extra method in capturing that throughout season 5. Now, I don't hate Jade, and actually think she was great reality TV and contributed a hell of a lot of drama that wasn't just the same old "Alyssa vs. Coco" tedium that season 5 would later become. But she is definitely on the meaner side of the Drag Race spectrum and would not let miss Alyssa Edwards live :( she definitely chose the wrong ally in Coco. Jade's time on the show was pretty lacklustre: she gave okay performances in Snatch Game and the ballet, but never came close to shining and was pretty obviously a filler queen. Then, if she lasted longer, perhaps the knowledge that she has starred in gay porn themed around Nazis would be a little more common. Which we don't want, really, and is why I won't mention it now. She read the hell out of Serena though, and for that, I love her. Memorable quote(s): "I am happy with what I got from the dumpster :)" "Serena said she went to art school. She might want her money back." "Girl you ain't that pretty. Covergirl not coverboy, baby." "Girl if I was gonna judge anyone, I'd judge you on that body where the shoulders should match them hips, but they don't, so... girl you had rolls, all over the back! It was disgusting!" Best Runway(s): Definitely her ringleader thing that I've used in the GIF above. Best Moment(s): I still get life whenever she does these weird knee-kicks and flicks during the lipsync vs. Coco, with her random af strands of hair flailing around her body :love: Alternatively, failing to notice the giant water tank behind her in the week 1 photoshoot :love: |

https://i.pinimg.com/originals/08/52...09c3a933f9.gif 87th Place: Laila McQueen (Season 8) - finished joint-last I guess it doesn't make a huge amount of sense to put this big a gap in my rankings between Dax and Laila when they both pretty much ****ed up the "I Will Survive" lipsync equally, but hey... I guess I like Laila. Laila's pretty popular among the other queens and immediately strikes me as probably the most polished "first eliminee" queen - Vanjie included. It certainly seems inevitable that she'll be asked back to compete in a future series, whether that's Allstars or something else, because she managed to accrue a large number of fans for... very little performance. OK so a huge part of my defence of Laila is that she 100%, no doubt in my mind did not deserve to be in the bottom two in the first episode. Her take on the Rupocalypse runway might not have been a complete head-to-toe look, but it was far more creative and well-constructed than Naomi's cheap gold dress and ugly-ass boat, Robbie's poodle monstrosity, and I would argue even Cynthia's Detox knock-off and Derrick's mistletoe pubes. There's still a strong chance she'd have been edited out in episode two anyway for failing to be a huge personality, but she didn't deserve to be a queen who lipsynced in every episode she featured in. Still: that first one to 'Applause' was a pretty stellar one, so there's that at least. And I think across all seasons, Laila is comfortably the queen I am most attracted to out of drag. So well done Laila! :clap2: Memorable quote(s): "Alright ladies, let's turn up the juice and see what shakes loose..." - I still have no idea what this means. Best Runway(s): She only had two. It wasn't the second one. Best Moment(s): Cynthia picking her for her team, calling her "Lyla" :love: |
I find Laila so overrated, I wasn't even that keen on her Week 1 lip sync either :shrug:

Sorry for all of the work getting in the way of this lately...
https://media.giphy.com/media/Fw1dLk8o3DUSk/giphy.gif http://logoonline.mtvnimages.com/uri...1523635391.gif 86th Place: Dusty Ray Bottoms (Season 10) - finished 11th My pre-season favourite based almost entirely on what he looked like out of drag, Dusty's presence in Season 10 was pretty much unnoticeable. Judging the queens from the later seasons seems quite hard and harsh to do now because it's pretty rare for a queen to deliver a performance in a challenge that is anywhere near as bad as, say, Milan's Tuckahoe acting, Milan's Diana Ross, or even Milan's Glamazon advert*. Pretty much all of the queens who get eliminated in the first half of the season now are capable of delivering at least one good performance; whereas back in season 5 and earlier, these slots were reserved for filler like Honey Mahogany, India Ferrah or Nicole Paige Brooks. Dusty certainly had two highlights that I can recall: her performance in the Dating App challenge was the best of a pretty horrible team (thanks a LOT, Monique, for landing Our Mayhem in the bottom two with piss-poor management!), and the episode before that saw her turn what could've been a winning performance in the PharmaRusical - had she been on the winning team. Because you cannot argue that the Vixen did a better job in that, or indeed her best drag, than Dusty :idc: Unfortunately once Dusty had spilled her devastating personal story of how she'd been forced into conversion therapy, she was inevitably left on the pile of "queens we don't know what to do with because they aren't fighting" and ended up tanking the global warming Ball on 2/3 looks. Bless her cotton socks for thinking that a glow-up wig would be visible for her Miami Summer look though :love: As I said, I really liked Dusty and she was a sweetheart, but she was totally not giving C-U-N-T on season 10, so has to go. Memorable quote(s): Well she tried to make "#NEVERLAVDYAH happen so let's go with that Best Runway(s): Definitely her 'Best Drag' runway Best Moment(s): Preparing a monologue read for every single queen in the reunion when they were only asked to give two each :love: *I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today and chose a random queen to target |
https://media.giphy.com/media/3ohzdT...dGYo/giphy.gif 85th Place: Jade (Season 1) - finished 6th There isn't quite a lot I remember about Jade, but I do still hold the strong sense that: if ever a drag queen was robbed on this show, it was Jade. Jade might not have stole the show in her first three episodes but the level of polish and preparation far surpassed the likes of Rebecca Glasscock - the queen who would send her home. And the GIF above is taken from episode four; the episode she was eliminated on. I'm still not sure how she even winded up in the bottom two: her ad campaign was a pretty sick look and she certainly didn't fluff her lines as much as Shannel or Bebe. Her most controversial moment came when she lipsynced against Rebecca, a video I've already shared in my Glasscock writeup :love: but that was truly the most clear-cut robbery in lipsync history. Even Trixie/Pearl, I at least enjoyed Pearl's ANGRY-FLAILING :mad: take on 'Dreaming' a little more than Trixie's forgettable cuteness. This was a straight-up riggery and Jade was justifiably pissed off at the reunion. Another Drag Race classic, that episode :love: and not just for Tammie coming for Ru. Jade recently popped up at the S10 finale as "only season 1 girl who actually looked excited to perform" and delivered the best medley performance along with Monique Heart: Spoiler: Otherwise sadly all I remember about Jade is her being interviewed on national news media in response to the Pulse tragedy - something she lost her cousin in - but I am pretty firm in my belief that I'd be more than happy to see more of Jade should Allstars ever come calling :love: Oh, also: obvious Jade/Trade pun here: http://i.imgur.com/G7b8HTr.jpg Memorable quote(s): "Merkel said in her statement: Ahmaja...ja... can do better. :)" Best Runway(s): Dodgy tuck aside: https://media.giphy.com/media/133aZyrDIBUhCU/giphy.gif Best Moment(s): Thinking that putting blackface on was the requirement of the "channel your inner Oprah" task <3 |
Jade :lovedup: an underrated robbed legend
