REALITY

The bottom 3 were right. Arreitty, Crystal, and Lana were the worst. I would've put Arreitty in the bottom 2 because she truly had nothing besides "i'M a BaBy!!". Even though Lana and Crystal gave bad answers, they were still answers nonetheless. That said, I wasn't mad at the bottom 2. Both their snatch games and outfits were not good.

Crystal being eliminated was shocking because she had a great track record, but I'm honestly not as surprised as most people. Neither she nor Lana blew that lip sync out of the water, so it could've gone either way for me. Lana did do slightly worse, especially because her wig fell off, but this could've been a double sashay and I would've been fine with it.

Onya was the highlight of the snatch game and gave the only top-tier performance imo. I can understand why Sam and Jewels were in the top, but neither of them were that funny imo. They were kinda up there by default. And this is probably an unpopular opinion, but I didn't think Suzie's Ellen Greene was as bad as they made it out to be. I thought the impersonation was good and it confused me why everyone was like "Why does she have that accent??" Like girl, that's what she sounds like...I don't think she should've won, but she had more of a character than everyone there except for Onya.

As of now, I think Onya will win the season, and I'd be happy about that. Barring some of her werkroom shenanigans—I thought she was in the wrong in both the Jewels and Lexi situation—she's exceptionally talented and has been one of the most consistent queens throughout the season.

Damn everyone here seems to just HATE Lana being on the show :air: I can see her doing well in a Rumix or dance, maybe even the rusical, but comedy is not for her and it’s clear she’s not a fashion queen either based on her design challenges. I think people had high expectations of her based on her promo and the fact she is Luxx’s daughter but hasn’t met them unfortunately 

I love Kori for some reason, and I just know she’ll do way better on an all stars 

but I do agree with the fact that a lot of these queens just seem like copy n paste standard drag queens, there’s not much to set them apart from what we’ve seen. Onya is the most charismatic but I don’t think she’d win coz people aren’t loving her runways and how she’s handled situations in the werk room

Lexi is just there atm but it looks like production is trying to make it look like she’s going way better than she actually is

Tbh I never liked Luxxx either…….

I didn’t particular enjoy her on the first watch on S15 but she’s grown on me over time and I love that she made so many memorable moments on that season 

plus her runways were amazing

I'm enjoying the seasom but I am still not obsessed with anyone in the cast?? I love Lexi and Suzie for example,  but I'm not DYING for them to win at all times. It's a weird vibe. 

Snatch Game was terrible, the funniest joke this entire episode was told by Onya before the snatch game even started, when Lydia said she's doing David Lynch and Onya said something like "I heard lynch and got scared" cbdkkdf i laughed so hard

Lana should have gone home, she's gorgeous and has one of the best drag names in the show's history but she's been giving nothing this entire season. Crystal deserved better than leaving so early. Also I love Lexi but that top position was a joke, she flopped and nothing about it was good lmao.

Same … they’re talented ofc, but none of them have the IT star factor we’ve seen in recent seasons with let’s say Symone / Nymphia / Sasha Colby

yes but they were strong, and it was still a 'tight' race.

This season, it's still kinda unknown who the TOp 3-5 will be, but it's a lack of star quality for me. Most of them are way too young and amateur

This season feels weird. Maybe it's just me but I genuinely don't care who wins yet, I'm not really rooting for anyone :awkney:

I think they want us to root for Suzie Toot, but she's like the budget version of Jinx Monsoon....... :samanthac:

They should crown Lexi already imo but I think the finals will be Lexi, Onya, Suzie and Sam Star.
