So much to talk about.

all the queens left over are pretty interesting so it'll be a small mourning period for me with each elimination

anyone else noticing how Ru is already pushing for queens to apply for S7?

Bianca better win, dammit. I like Adore but CINCH IT and Courtney is cool when she isn't trying to serve body-ody-ody, ya know?
Darienne may or may not be the black horse in this competition. I hope she quits with the sparkly garbage bags; she's reminding me of that Honey person with all the caftans

I noticed too that Trinity is an ace at the lip sync and not great at anything else. But given that the elimination comes down to lip sync, if you're gonna be a one-trick pony on this show it's a great trick to have!

I'm also rooting for Bianca.

she's gonna be this season's Coco :aaa:

can we get Phi Phi and Gia together and laugh at their awful makeup skills?
I swear Gia had decent eyelashes the first ep but then it's like she ran out of glue and tried to keep 'em on with like... hope or tenacity or something.

you can tell from the get-go who was hosed and going home with ep. 8 so at least there's that?

what would happen if Bianca and Willam teamed up? has that happened? would an ep of Bianca's Wheatdown come of it?!

The "make over a straight man" is a challenge in a different sort of way. Without being too spoiler-y, I think it's sometimes difficult for a queen to adjust her personal style in the way that's needed.

I get the feeling that a lot of the fishier queens don't have a lot of experience in the 'female impersonation' aspect and can rest on their natural face/body with a much more subdued makeup style. This doesn't translate well on the straight men, who are/are chosen for their more masculine appearance.

Hopefully we won't get another Carmen moment where she tries to give body with a bulky bro

Isn't this usually the ep where they bring someone back to add drama?

Joslyn needs to go. But I really don't want Joslyn to go because she makes me laugh just as hard as when I'm laughing at Bianca Del Rio's jokes, only Joslyn is saying "bobby pin" and it loving kills me.

such a small, incredible moment.
this season has been excellent for those tiny moments.

Willam was kind of invisible on the show but after the elimination blew. up.

It's rad that we're getting to see Willam do Willam because she's stunning and hilarious and I've never seen anyone else be fishy with a 5 o' clock shadow :allears:

a few years ago I was discussing fixing up my car with a friend at a cafe. upon stating that "the tranny is so fuckin' busted", a random person in the cafe who overheard my statement started freaking out at me for being an insensitive bigot. I had no clue what they were talking about til I googled "tranny" and dug around a bit. oh, country living and inadvertent ignorance :allears:

I agree with Ru's take on the use of that particular word, but can also see how it bums people out. kind of a can of worms, and I'm not sure how much good this discussion (in general in the world and not just on SA) will do in the end

I just rewatched Season 5 for the first time since it aired. I've gotta say it's been my favorite season to date. Roxxxy is still a whiny baby, though. Next up, Season 4!

Rolaskatoxx was so goddamn annoying, but if they didn't exist we wouldn't have had that wonderful moment from Alaska coming into the workroom and announcing "ALASKAAAA!" and seeing her come into her own was so :3:

"So, I'm thinking um, some type of collar, and maybe something, you know, like, coming up *here*, maybe something flowy but I'm thinking I'm maybe gonna go maybe like, very gown-ish, like maybe a... dress?" oh, Gia.

re-watching S6 is delightful, especially knowing what'll happen with all of these queens.

I recognized the background instantly and assumed they were just being cheap and reusing the same set. But gently caress I hope this is true. Double points if it's like a Divine inspired trash drag challenge.

that challenge would be exceptional but with no Alaska or Sharon turning trash into treasure...

I'm watching through this from the beginning with a friend and her immediate reaction to seeing Santino in S1 was "...he looks like Gay Wario" and now I'm dead. so spot-on!

and maaaan all the vaseline on the lens in S1! the tiny cast! Rebecca Glasscock's nose!
Season 7 needs to get here already.

Phi-Phi ended up being one of my favorites of the night, from her Power Rangers Rita act to the mini-snatch game where she played Gia Gunn (complete with the hula hoop bag and an entire wig track glued to her eyelash).

Phi Phi is did better as Gia than she did as Phi Phi, in my opinion. did she perform Bang Bang in Seattle, too? kinda shot herself in the foot by having the lyrics pop up behind her on screen since she hosed so many of them up.

I got to meet Alaska before the show outside while a few of the girls were smoking and was way too psyched on it. at least I was the only person talking to her that didn't run up saying OMG HIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!!1!

I wonder if any of the queens get really sick of certain catchphrases and such or if they're totally living for it.
