Season 13, Episode 7 - "Bossy Rossy: The RuBoot"
 

For anyone that still wants to watch this **** season :hmph:



This preview features the Reading mini-challenge

Sherry pie was more likeable than half of this cast.

Kandy being faux upset is even worse than is she was gloating.

Gotmik, Kandy and Tina are all so unlikeable to me

Oh now Kandy wants to act kind and upset lmao
The reading challenge wasn't even great, and that's usually my favorite mini-challenge.

And we obviously needed Tamisha for the readong challenge, that would have been 10 times better.

In fairness they've probably squashed any beef between the two of them, and there's been countless examples of queens who don't get along but still care about one another as a sister.

I won't defend her behaviour but I don't think she was being disingenuous when she was upset about sending Tamisha home.

I'm almost beginning to dislike Tina more to be honest... she was someone who was touted as a New York legend, a name mentioned in the same breath as Sherry Vine, Jackie Beat, Peppermint and Marti Gould Cummings. Everything she's delivered on the show has just been so drab... I wasn't really expecting another Bianca run, because she was really one of a kind and will never be emulated again since she was a friend of Ru who needed a platform to propel herself/the show. But... damn, even the reads in this video aren't great :unsure: throw on top her ugly makeup and boxy looks and I am itching for her to go home... even before Kandy.

Totally agree, I think Tina was one one of the only queen's I had heard of pre season and she's honestly not delivered at all and worse she's not even been mediocre but downright disappointing considering what people were probably expecting.

Kandy getting a high placement for delivering... nothing. This season is the ****ing worst. She would’ve been low for me over Lala. Denali and Rosé are SLEPT on each week, that chandelier look was STUNNING from Denali and she was funny in the challenge. The producers obviously don’t want them to go very far.

Lala :sad::sad::sad: I always knew she wouldn’t go very far because she wasn’t quite polished enough but she was so charismatic. Her and Tamisha going back to back is a pretty big blow for the series for me. Hopefully, Denali and Rosé will start to get more airtime and I’m loving Utica more and more each week.

...it’s hard to pick back up with this, isn’t it...after losing the heart and now we’ve lost LaLa...it’s like having that 2nd wave again...


...I loved the bead it runway...Denali, ughhhhhh...she was The Plaza Royal Suite and then some/beyond fabulous...:lovedup:...Rose/gorgeous and the Lady in Red, Gottmik...:love:...and Utica never disappoints...death by bead for her groom and bride becoming widow...Kandy, Tina and Symone were all pretty stand out as well, I thought...



...LaLa Ri....:lovedup:...

firm favs are deffo Denali, Rosé, Utica and Symone. also liking Olivia more and more but I'm feeling the same as the rest of us just not bothered with this series. Tina really does my head in

Olivia having free passes for wearing the same wig as Kandy (even if it's hers... don't let another queen wear it on the runway first :umm2:) and an extremely similar (even down to the hair) boxing look as Symone's is... interesting.

I didn’t get the hype for Symones outfit? It was good but there was better on the runway

I thought Kandy was underwhelming in the challenge, didn’t deserve top 3 at ALL

Screaming at the parallels of Ginny and Utica thinking they were going to smash the challenge and then both of them flopping

Favourites this week are Symone, Denali, Gottmik and Utica. Kandys runway look was cute, imo Rose did better in the improv challenge than the runway.

Tina’s didn’t do it for me again, the reveal was dead and the tired orange hair

Losing momma T and Lala back to back :bawling:

OK so first of all let's never talk about that reading challenge because it was not cute.

There was no question about Olivia winning this, she really did well. The outfit was fine, but the hair....

Symone's outfit as one of the greatest to ever be on the stage? Mmm k Ru, whatever you say.

Sad for Lala Ri but it was pretty obvious she was going to leave soon. What a nice charismatic queen who can lipsync the house down! :love:

Kandy being high is completely not deserved at all, Denali and Rosé should have been up there with Olivia. That chandelier outfit was VERY good!

You would have expected Tina to do MUCH better because it's the kind of challenge she's supposed to be good at. And it didn't happen.

I have a soft spot for Elliott so I'm biased but I do think she didn't do that bad? But she did well in the lipsync. Loved her outfit too.

I'm really struggling to care about this season, it's just too produced and I'm tired of challenges that are so obviously rigged. Let queens chose their own groups, let them improv and only give them the vaguest guidelines. It's kinda pointless if you're telling someone everything about their character. I just wanted to fast forward through that challenge at one point.

The Bead runway was cute though, but this series is dead on arrival because it has to compete with the UK version which is just more fun, even when it's a bit **** like this week's episode was.

I agree with others about this season, I also think because I LOVED S12 so much and apart from the Sherry Pie fiasco it will turn out to be a classic. If Utica or Elliot go I'll find it difficult to find anyone likeable.

I cant even be arsed watching, is it worth it??

this is starting to tie with season 11 for most boring season.. maybe if they had just dived straight in instead of wasting 3 weeks with the winners and losers gimmick it would've been more interesting. But this is episode 7 and only the fourth elimination? lawd

Yeah I agree about the long start. I think they were pandering to those who complain the 1st eliminated queens don't get enough of a chance to prove themselves... but let's all be honest... the first Elias were never going to win so let's just get going already

Watched it the other day... and yeah the judging is just way off. I love TS Madison but most of her critiques just confused me. Denali and Rose were the best partnership, and Lala wasn't bad... just not at their level. Another stellar runway from Denali... Rose's was okay - well crafted and constructed but I didn't like the colours, and I liked Lala's too.

I didn't enjoy Kandy's performance at all, she was too quiet and let Symone walk all over her (Ross claiming that her interactions with him had him in stitches, when all they literally showed her saying was "you bitch..." :umm2: reel in the favouritism, you tired queen), and her runway honestly just looked clunky and awkward to me; I didn't get opulence from it so much as "Buckaroo donkey wearing too much and ready to kick". Symone's performance was fine, and her runway was excellent, so that was a deserved placement.

Second week in a row where Utica's delivered the worst performance... I'm sorry y'all but I don't get her appeal. She's quirky and gummy and has served some fantastic runways but I just... where's the performances? Where's the comedy? Because saving it for the workroom interviews with Ru isn't going to cut it! Gottmik's performance with her was... the bare minimum. I'm trying to support her because of her looks but the Rolaskatox II (like the original, without the talent!) edit is testing me.

I beg to disagree! Olivia might just be the most boring queen they've ever had on the show, so to see her getting two wins in a row with a part that was specifically designed to go to the obvious "SHE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING BUT SHE STOLE THE SCENE!!!" edit was irksome. She seems lovely but I cannot for the life of me remember anything she's said, done or presented on the runway, and even though she's beautiful I just feel a yawn coming on when she's on screen. And her runway this week sucked and didn't really have any beads at all, so idfk how she ****ing won.

Tina and Elliott - I thought they did fine tbh. Tina definitely went OTT and drowned everyone else out, so that probably made Elliott seem weak by comparison, but I think both were funny enough to be safe.

I feel like we could have done without the scenes of the other girls spectating each other's improv and telling us what to think. Kandy just loudly declaring Elliott to be weak and quiet when she's clearly had an issue with her in the past and is just praising her friend Tina :skull:

Rankings for the episode:

Winner: Rose
High: Denali & Symone
Safe: Tina, Olivia, Gottmik, Elliott
Low: Lala
Bottom: Kandy & Utica

I just remembered Tina's runway and now I'm angry again

In this kind of challenge, the judges seem to overlook the outfit and focus more on the improv performance itself. And I think she did well. It could have been bombed very easiliy, but Olivia turned it out and made it entertaining.
Now for the outfit....yeah it wasn't it. But I think the judges looked at performance rather than the outfit. Which is contradictory to half of the decision they have made.
