AS5 Episode 8, "Clap Back" (Finale) - Spoilers!!!
 

Another warning that the apparent winner of the season has been leaked, and so do not discuss even if it's one or two or three people until the episode airs please :oh:

them trying to force Blair's shoulder-shake and "shhhh!" as a "moment" or a meme as justification for her getting into the top four :love: bless

anyone know what time it gets uploaded to netflix because i have a packed day on sat and want to perch it in the early morning to avoid spoilers :eyes:

I really don’t know what to expect winner wise which is exciting. Cracker has the best track record, Shea is the fan favourite and Juju has had the best edit throughout the series (not that it really matters but I still don’t think Juju is out of the running at all)
There’s probably gonna be controversy either way, if they don’t crown Cracker it’ll be the 3rd AS in a row and 5th season In total in a row where they don’t crown the statistically strongest queen (right?), but if she does win most fans won’t be thrilled

if cracker wins drag race is axed

It's usually 8am I believe

there are now leaked screenshots of each of the 3 queens with a crown/sceptre so idfk who wins any more :worry:

thanks ! might have to find it illegally then lol

also erm i just realised they didn’t do my favourite challenge this season, the make over :(

Yeah I was a bit shocked about that actually. After watching crackers Whatcha Packin’, I actually really wanna see what her concept would’ve looked like :joker:

Team JuJu and Shea so fingers crossed. If crackers wins still I would not be too mad.

the blm episode we have been waiting for. Come on and Shea.

Well, it's over.

deserving winner tbh, would of loved jujubee, but we love a 3x top three queen without winning! her final runway is one of the best of all time for me :shocked:

in terms of the season as a whole i'll probably rank it as:
AS2 > AS3 > AS5 > AS4 > AS1

(I don't think any future all stars will beat 2 tbh, it felt like such a big event at the time, maybe if they do a UK, Canada and US big all stars in the future it could beat it out of the park)

Guys, doesn't it feel so good when the outcome is so right? I mean, this year Ru got it right with Jaida and Shea. A good year for RPDR.

It was a solid finale, the looks were served and so well executed. It really was pure drag and all looked gorgeous.

The performance was solid too from all three of them. I like the song, the energy, the setup of it all.

I was scared for a minute Cracker would take it with her track record and good critiques. The Jujubee fan in me wanted her to win, or at least another tie with Shea, but realistically Shea was the strongest from the very beginning to the end. She embodies what RPDR is, what Drag is, and is a really kind person.

Ru was so impressed, so were the judges, and she really looked happy and touched.

I CANNOT WAIT to see Shea in Marseille in September in the european leg of the Werq the World tour (fingers crossed it's not delayed again, or cancelled!). She is going to burn our concert hall down!

A good day for Drag Race!

PS: quote of the series from Juju: "Gloryholes in theory sound really great but like, that's when can you get presents you didn't want. Like, SURPRISE YOU HAVE HERPES". :joker::joker:

BLM!!!! So happy.

Screamed at Blair perched in the back of every shot trying to learn the finalists choreo and then literally getting no airtime for the performance :love:

nn @ netflix using shea winning as the thumbnail

good ep, I'm happy with the winner, we all knew it from the start lbh but she deserved it 100%

hated the song, sadly </3 it's too fast-paced and you can hardly make out any of the queens' lyrics. The final lipsync was the better moment, and Jujubee ATE it up :love: Cracker trying some cone bra reveal after all of the Aquaria comparisons :skull: bless her

girl..

Yeah, I had no idea what half of them were saying for their lyrics :skull:

I was surprised Shea won but only bc I saw a tweet from an account that said congrats @mizcracker (I didn’t read the rest but assumed it was congratulating her on a win)

I’d have preferred a Juju win, but happy with a Shea win

I assume that account was congratulating Cracker on doing a less impressive titty reveal than Asia O'Hara

Yay @ the result :love: everyone was on a pretty level playing field I thought this week for the runway/challenge but Shea had been the best all season.

I was obsessed with the final runway looks :love: utterly stunning.

Alexis, Blair, Shea, India, Cracker and Mariah all looked stunning. No one looked bad, but the top toot has to go to Jujubee... that genuinely made me gasp :love:

I'm so pleased they let everyone come back for the "best drag" moment... if not only because it was probably the gown that all of the queens forked out $5000+ for :skull: but because there was no returning twist, it was beneficial to everyone. I haven't seen the full episode to see what went down in the workroom, but from what I gather Miss Alexis was absolved of all wrongdoing and goes forward as another robbed queen :love:

I wish we could have every year all queens returning the their "best drag" moments and the reigning queen.

And they saved on the best lipsyncs of the season for last. Shea did something "unique" with it, while Jujubee SERVED it! Cracker couldn't compete with these 2. It's not like you can pause a song to help you win.... ;)
