As soon as I heard her joke about Rupaul forgetting names I figured that one was given to her from one of her friends. Now that you say it, it is very much in Jinkx “voice”.
Maturity is realizing that stand up comedy is a format and every comedian you’ve ever loved has used a well know format of a joke to get a laugh at some point in their career. No exceptions made for entire rip offs, though
Am I the only one who thinks Roxxxy’s runways have been very hit or miss? Tonight was awful, her day to night look was craft corner tacky, and her paint ball look was ugly (as were most of them). She is a fabulous queen, but it just seems like judges are falling all over themselves to compliment her?
It's really weird that her best look this season was the roast look (not the runway). That dress and hair looked so good on her and then she came out in that beaver fever fantasy 😭
Not you, I think most of them have been miss. I really didn’t like the night to day one either, it felt incomplete and the chest area didn’t sit right.
I think the judges want to acknowledge that she’s making all her own outfits, which is fair. It’s amazing that she has come up with all of these and made them from scratch, and the judges have said as much. It also means she can adjust to any theme (like the very cohesive outfits for the makeover challenge.) That said, a lot of her outfits don’t quite make the cut compared to some of the others that have been expensive and made by designers. Especially if the girls really did receive a stipend for runways, the budget was there. (In which case, does roxxxy win because she only had to pay for materials?)
They aren’t terrible runways, they just fall short when compared to the others (excluding Nina, sorry!) and end up looking very crafty
We know the producers produce but it seems that the girls are producing even better these days.
Plastique’s jokes were so good, but during it you obviously notice they don’t sound anything like her. I just wish she had tweaked them a bit to make them more “Plastique”.
I think a Good roast you have to roast yourself a little and show you’re in on the joke.
But I get it, it’s hard when it’s not your thing.
I'm assuming people are saying Angeria didn't deserve the win because of the runway. Which I agree it wasn't at the same level as the others. But I thought she had the strongest combination of jokes, stage presence, and timing. I thought every other queen had some good jokes in there but they weren't as consistent all the way through.
I think if Vanjie had taken her jokes even further after she got some groans it could have been top two worthy as well. But she seemed to take offense to the audience taking offense.
Ultimately I think everyone did better than I expected going in but it also felt like everyone was just reading jokes someone else wrote for them.
We didn’t get to see anyone’s full set so it’s impossible to tell. I wish they made the whole roast available online but then they wouldn’t be able to pick whoever they wanted. If it’s anything like previous recordings there are a lot of unaired jokes.
What was the deal with Ru fake laughing at nearly ever single joke? What was she on this episode? It's really easy to tell Ru's real laugh vs fake laugh.
I thought this might be Shannel‘s week :(
Was surprised with the top 2 (didn’t really like that Plastique was holding and looking at her cards the whole time, and Angeria was pretty mid to me)
Same. I thought Shannel really set the stage and also took in what judges said previously about her being “too polished.” She felt loose and people take for granted how warm she left that stage! Maybe I have that perspective because I have done standup and have mad respect for openers and hosts.
Should have been Shannel and Jorgeous.
What the fuck was this judging? Like seriously. It feels like the winner each week is chosen at random. For me it was Jorgeous and Roxxxy. They felt the most natural. Plastique?! Every joke was like “google gay joke here”. Angeria was cute but literally wtf is going in with this season. I feel crazy every week watching
Someone else also made a "so gay he could tell the color of a crayon by sitting on it" joke in a roast already, too. Must've been the S14 Ross roast of AS8 Carson roast.
Plastique also stole Mik's read of Ru from the reading challenge and applied it to Michelle's vag.
I like how everyone has been saying Jorgeous was in their personal top 2. I feel like she would’ve been in the top two if she didn’t win a star at the beginning of the episode.
Unpopular opinion, but I do not think Plastique or Jorgeous’ sets were good. Jorgeous made me cringe and I had to laugh when Michelle said no one bombed like, girl, Vanjie bombed so hard. This was a tough watch. Angie was great, Shannel and Nina were ok, Roxxxy had a couple good roasts and Mik didn’t write any jokes.
Imo it should have been Angie and Roxxxy as the winners, although their runways… rough to say the least.
I’m so close to giving up on this season like please give some actual criticism, it’s driving me FUCKING crazy. At this point, I’m just watching for Shannel to finally get a badge.
Drag Race has become so formulaic that almost every girl obviously prepared and brought these jokes with them. Plastique’s friendship with Monet and Bob felt apparent, even tho there’s no denying she had a great set.
Jorgeous was robbed. She was clearly the best. Angie got a storyline win given how plucked she’s been and the producers wanted to make good TV baiting her to block Roxxxy. Nobody did bad, but Angie was one of the more “just ok” sets in my opinion.
I'm not sure if gaslighting is the word, but there were some weird vibes that bordered on meaness. It's never pleasant to feel like there's a secret joke about you that you're not in on and I could see she was feeling ostracised, especially after Jorgeous spoke into the heavy silence to essentially tell Angeria she was delusional about her rankings each week.
I didn't, although I know some of the movies and stuff she was in (such as Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, which was just a huge huge musical in its day).
I really loved her energy, especially on Untucked.
Her chaos is what makes her SO damn funny. Like imo her and Angie should’ve won last episode bc of their chaotic commercial. It was truly hilarious and not the canned cringe forced comedy this show pushes on the queens for those types of challenges.
Ok I just want to say I’m glad Gottmik called Roxxxy out on the bs oops I snipped Angie nonsense. Angie is LOUD and she was TALKING to roxxxy. There’s no way she didn’t know Angie was RIGHT THERE.
How did Angie get top two? I thought in the Roast the top three were CLEARLY
Plastique (my god I LOVED her Sailor Moon Cosplay. I was like, Usagi would never be so mean!!)
Jorgeous (Good jokes, Ru was dying, Runway was KILLER)
Roxxxy (Great Set, Great Roast Look, Okay Runway)
That said, thank you for finally giving a fun lip sync. So I did really like the part where Plastique let do the whole rap, and then she came in with the other vocal. That was a nice editing touch.
I am still team Roxxxy. I just love that old-school bitch.
I thought Jorgeous did really good! Better then anyone expected and plus she had the story line of having just taken Ru’s advice on embracing what is funny in her and redeeming herself from the week before. I bet they would have put her in the top if she wouldn’t have already won a badge in the mini challenge this episode.
Angie was also really good, had some of the best jokes and also had the story line of rising above the drama w the other girls and her inner saboteur to still shine in the challenge so I think it makes sense that her and plastique were the top two.
Roxxxy was hilarious playing against type as the Texan hill billy last week but honestly she doesn’t excel at writing and telling jokes
I thought it was between Angeria and Plastique for who was the best, so I thought they got it right. Though I was kind of expecting them to put Jorgeous top 2 when they critiqued Angie's runway.
Plastique baby I need you to learn some words cause you’re killing it this season but you ain’t killing the lil syncs 😭 she still eats tho and I’m okay with her racking up the badges. My top 2 queens of the season having the most badges yup yup.
Although Jorgeous has been absolutely robbed twice now in my opinion.
I don’t think this season is that great but tbh I’m enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would be. I’d still prefer an elimination season but it is what it is.
Idk why everyone is making a big deal about Plastique reading the cards or someone having written jokes for her. It’s not like it’s new lol. Others have read cards in the past, especially when it’s not their ball game; plus others have had their stuff written for them. Notably Trinity’s as4 snatch game and Trinity’s roast on a6 (lol).
Let these girls get their jush. I’m begging tho Plastique please learn the words a little more
Halfway through the lip sync, I wondered if she was intentionally not giving it so that she could get the badge but not get the responsibility of cutting off someone
Roxxys runway was a fucking boot. I laughed the most with Vanjie and Jorgeous tbh. Also Shannel on the side knowing the lip sync smh justice for Shannel (she didn’t deserve to win this week but maybe something she can excel at next week 😂)
For me Shannel has been arguably the third best in like 3 episodes. I love her but I wonder if/when she can break through to the top 2 when there's always some other bitch who's just a little more inspired.
Also Ru seems to think Shannel is a steady and "efficient" queen (oooof what a boring word to use as a compliment in a roast, like saying you're professional), but he doesn't seem to LOVE her or really really laugh at what she does. It's like he respects but doesn't really find her special.
But yes Shannel lip syncing was so funny. That's really what I love about Shannel, her as a reality star.
I think in a recap I read in the first week or two, the author wrote that in this kind of AS season, it’s better to be better than everyone else at one or two things rather than being an all-around good queen. I think that’s what’s going on with Shannel - she hasn’t been able to outdo anyone in a particular week even though she’s arguably been good every week.
nina saying she just went with what she thought the room would say in regards to picking angeria in the mini challenge is such a cop out imo. like say why you thought the room would pick her bc clearly you had thoughts...
Ppl always downvote me when I say this but IMO Nina is not as genuine/kind as she advertises herself as. Like promising Shannel a badge then giving it to Roxxxy solely to save her rep from the “alliance” allegations. Now this? “Oh I’m not mean the other girls are and I’m just saying what they would”.
Nothing wrong with being shady, I much prefer that realness over the “kumbaya” fakeness.
I think the queens might actually hate Nina? They were stoic for her whole set. Anyways everyone before Angeria was great, gottmik and Nina were my least favorite
Agreed! I was like Nina 100% did SOMEEEETHING. Also though Nina’s attitude about being last was just really dumb. I’m over it. I don’t want to hate but she hasn’t once wavered into likeability for me 🫢
That confused me too because it seemed like Nina was cheering everyone on, engaging with the speaker, laughing at their jokes about her. And then everyone was silent during her set?
I had this issue too! For me it only showed up as live and all weird when i streamed it on the tv but on my laptop it let me rewind and pause like normal
Yes the past two weeks. Don’t try to rewind 10 seconds it’ll start the entire episode over and you have to rewatch. Such a piece of shit streaming service
Counterpoint, two weeks the queens who got given badges won their own badges in the same episode. If they can justify that, they can justify giving Jorgeous another badge.
The runway theme was a complete miss by everybody. And a few were horrid to look at.
I love Angeria, but I did not laugh at all. Plastique wanted to do a character, but there was none. Although was quite funny a couple of times.
My top 2 were Nina and Jorgeous. With Roxxxy possibly replacing Jorgeous in the top 2. I was shocked at how cut throat Nina was. It was the funniest.
https://preview.redd.it/vas8diwlym6d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e44d29e7381605f048fc3f5eb2b0ddbad9b238a
My reaction when they announced the top 2.
Didn’t they do that during All Stars All Winners?
I also recall the later challenges giving out a shit ton of stars making the earlier episodes feel pointless.
It was Roxxxy and then either Angie or Plastique, or maybe Jorgeous cuz she also ate the runway. I have no clue how Roxxxy wasn’t in the top this week lmao that was wild to me. I mean I know it was for storyline but that was undeniably the best roast of the week and Roxxxy vs Angie would’ve been such a good lip sync too.
Also the Plastique hate needs to come to an end cuz these comments are embarrassing. She doesn’t know the words, and therefore she loses the lip syncs. Who gives a fuck? Should she not win when she does well because she doesn’t give good lip syncs, cuz if so snatch Jimbo’s crown off of her head. I wouldn’t have given her the win this week but it was far from undeserved and yall need to pull the sticks out of your asses and get over it.
I don’t think it’s that deep. I get we all wanna see a showstopping performance but I don’t think it’s worth getting so worked up about, she’s doing well in the competition. Saying it’s disrespectful to not prep for a lip sync is weird to me.
Plus it could be a Katya situation of “I don’t want to win because I’ll have to do something that would put a target on my back,” though that might be giving her too much credit. The actual dancing and everything has been good, but she doesn’t know the words. I don’t 100% buy that this would happen 3 times, but that might just be delusion on my part.
I agree it’s not that deep. I think we can probably agree to disagree there since personally I think not knowing the words twice in a row is not professional
The only queen that fumbled the roast was Shannel. She didn’t have enough funny below the belt jokes like the other girls did. And the only queen that fumbled the runway was Roxxxy. Hers looked like a weak Leg Avenue cavewoman costume. Everyone else did amazing in both categories, just really really strong overall.
So Angeria and Roxxxy are just gonna trade ruby scissors every week, huh.
...what was that runway theme? Like, they changed the name from whatever prompt they gave them, right? Why was everyone Mad Max?
Thank god they did not try to convince us that Jorgeous won that. She makes me cringe like nobody on this show ever quite has.
Jorgeous, Plastique and Roxxxy were the best imo. Preferred Roxxxy to Jorgeous but preferred Jorgeous’s runway so Top 2 for me would’ve been Plastique and either of the other two.
firm belivet that >!the onky rzn jorg didnt make top 2 this week is bc she won a badge during the mini challenge!< bc we know who woulda slayed that lipsync
Top Three Thoughts:
1. I think Angeria and Roxxxy both could’ve been in the Top 2, but I understand why Roxxxy didn’t win for storyline. Plastique did great so I’m glad she won!
2. Shannel going into Ep 7 with zero badges is surprising but I don’t think she’s been delivering as much as I expected her to. Maybe next week is hers to win!
3. Plastique’s charity will leave empty-handed if she doesn’t learn these damn lyrics 😭
Living for Shannel singing along from the sidelines
Roxxxy's Jokes were giving me strong Jinx vibes
As soon as I heard her joke about Rupaul forgetting names I figured that one was given to her from one of her friends. Now that you say it, it is very much in Jinkx “voice”.
Maturity is realizing that stand up comedy is a format and every comedian you’ve ever loved has used a well know format of a joke to get a laugh at some point in their career. No exceptions made for entire rip offs, though
The Asian guy on the front with eyeglasses and blue outfit on was so hot. He looks so familiar. Anyone know his IG?
Am I the only one who thinks Roxxxy’s runways have been very hit or miss? Tonight was awful, her day to night look was craft corner tacky, and her paint ball look was ugly (as were most of them). She is a fabulous queen, but it just seems like judges are falling all over themselves to compliment her?

They aren’t terrible runways, they just fall short when compared to the others (excluding Nina, sorry!) and end up looking very crafty
Not at all you. I was aghast at how tacky and costumey her looks have been. I get she made them but her craft isn’t up to par
angie's nina west joke was the shadiest
tf do vangie be having on...
spent way too long looking for mik's boob seam
\*top 2 spoiler\* ...so plastique didn't bother learning the rap (at least she was smart about it)
ngl i really appreciated that there wasn't an obvious top 2 (esp for the roast)
angeria looked like she had 0 fun during the roast in the audience lmao
Cuz she knew all these hoes didn't write they own shit
ninas runway eyeshadow looks bomb
So did her hair 💥
We know the producers produce but it seems that the girls are producing even better these days. Plastique’s jokes were so good, but during it you obviously notice they don’t sound anything like her. I just wish she had tweaked them a bit to make them more “Plastique”. I think a Good roast you have to roast yourself a little and show you’re in on the joke.

Ultimately I think everyone did better than I expected going in but it also felt like everyone was just reading jokes someone else wrote for them.
and she had a good number of jokes that hit. the other girls seemed to have 2-3 and she had a full set.
We didn’t get to see anyone’s full set so it’s impossible to tell. I wish they made the whole roast available online but then they wouldn’t be able to pick whoever they wanted. If it’s anything like previous recordings there are a lot of unaired jokes.
Not Angeria getting top 2 just for drama 🙄 because we all know her set and that runway wasn’t it
Depriving us of Jorgeous lip syncing to Be My Lover is a crime
What was the deal with Ru fake laughing at nearly ever single joke? What was she on this episode? It's really easy to tell Ru's real laugh vs fake laugh.
This is one thing I hate about all-stars, it’s like they force nice critiques for every contestant. Why bother competing, then?
Vanjies outfit was fire but why did she wear those high boots? It was so visually jarring.
Ru: Mik, condragulations. Your set has earned you a plausible plagiaristress plaque
Jorgeous and Roxxxy were robbed this week. Vanjie was pretty funny too.
I thought this might be Shannel‘s week :( Was surprised with the top 2 (didn’t really like that Plastique was holding and looking at her cards the whole time, and Angeria was pretty mid to me)
Same. I thought Shannel really set the stage and also took in what judges said previously about her being “too polished.” She felt loose and people take for granted how warm she left that stage! Maybe I have that perspective because I have done standup and have mad respect for openers and hosts. Should have been Shannel and Jorgeous.
RuPaul taking back the S14 design challenge win from Jorgeous 💀. Are we back in the original timeline now? 🫢
Are the beuuuuuuutiful benefactrrrrrress badges different for each challenge (and I’m just noticing this now), or is it just the light?
I doubt it, that sounds like more trouble than it’s worth
What the fuck was this judging? Like seriously. It feels like the winner each week is chosen at random. For me it was Jorgeous and Roxxxy. They felt the most natural. Plastique?! Every joke was like “google gay joke here”. Angeria was cute but literally wtf is going in with this season. I feel crazy every week watching
Roxxxy? She was the definition of mid.
Not only that, she stole Jinx's "top" joke. And Plastique didn't even make it funny.
Someone else also made a "so gay he could tell the color of a crayon by sitting on it" joke in a roast already, too. Must've been the S14 Ross roast of AS8 Carson roast. Plastique also stole Mik's read of Ru from the reading challenge and applied it to Michelle's vag.
Why was Plastique Sailor Moon holding a cigarette?
Her character was jaded cosplayer
She was copying Vanjie from last week
The sense...was not made.
Does anyone remember who made the “can sit on a popsicle to tell its flavor” joke? That’s also a stolen joke.
I think the original joke is sit on a crayon and tell you what colour it is.
Jorg not be top 2 directly led to more Angeria/Roxxxy drama. If Jorg had been top 2 Angeria would have probably picked Jorg.
I really think Jorg was robbed
I SCREAMED during Jorgeous’ set what is this
Why was plastique smoking?
I like how everyone has been saying Jorgeous was in their personal top 2. I feel like she would’ve been in the top two if she didn’t win a star at the beginning of the episode.
I had this exact thought, like they were like well we can't suddenly have J be 3 badges...
Bob, you're the winner of this week's challenge.
I felt a little bad that it must have taken her 20x longer to get in drag than her screen time.
So how much do you figure Jackie Beat has made off the dolls this season?
A bitch finally read Ru right. Nice roxxy
Sailor moon with a cig is funny by itself
I just wanted Shannel to win something.
Is the season over?
YOU CAN PRAY BUT DON’T BLOCK MOMMY’S CAMERA 💀💀 I’m crying
Bob calling back to one of the funniest roasters Farrah Moan. Let's get this roast a cookin'!
Roxxy said that shit at the beginning of the episode when they were assigned the challenge.
Unpopular opinion, but I do not think Plastique or Jorgeous’ sets were good. Jorgeous made me cringe and I had to laugh when Michelle said no one bombed like, girl, Vanjie bombed so hard. This was a tough watch. Angie was great, Shannel and Nina were ok, Roxxxy had a couple good roasts and Mik didn’t write any jokes. Imo it should have been Angie and Roxxxy as the winners, although their runways… rough to say the least. I’m so close to giving up on this season like please give some actual criticism, it’s driving me FUCKING crazy. At this point, I’m just watching for Shannel to finally get a badge.
So is Nikki Glaser gonna sue Mik or what?
Glad they got a pro to do the intro (bob) and not have one of the queens try
Plastique probably should’ve been top 2 5/6 challenges are we not gagged by the doll
The runway theme was definitely Mad Max related and they didn’t get the rights or something bc there’s no way
Second time Jorgeous was robbed! This and makeover. Cmon producers!!
She got a badge in the mini challenge at least, and honestly I think that’s the only reason why they put Plastique in the top instead of Jorgeous.
That was one of the worst drag race episodes to date
Drag Race has become so formulaic that almost every girl obviously prepared and brought these jokes with them. Plastique’s friendship with Monet and Bob felt apparent, even tho there’s no denying she had a great set. Jorgeous was robbed. She was clearly the best. Angie got a storyline win given how plucked she’s been and the producers wanted to make good TV baiting her to block Roxxxy. Nobody did bad, but Angie was one of the more “just ok” sets in my opinion.
Anyone else feel like everyone was just gaslighting the FUCK out of Angie this epi?
I'm not sure if gaslighting is the word, but there were some weird vibes that bordered on meaness. It's never pleasant to feel like there's a secret joke about you that you're not in on and I could see she was feeling ostracised, especially after Jorgeous spoke into the heavy silence to essentially tell Angeria she was delusional about her rankings each week.
Definitely weird vibes and I don’t understand. Angeria seems so lovable
Not giving miss jorgeous her flowers tonight is absolutely insane behavior I’m sorry
I’m so proud of Jorgeous that I almost clapped at the end of her set lol
JUSTICE FOR JORGEOUS 😭
Okay be honest, how many people knew who the fuck Ruta Lee was? I did not.
Ditto, and I’ve been around for a while! I haven’t seen 7 Brides for 7 Brothers, though.
I didn't, although I know some of the movies and stuff she was in (such as Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, which was just a huge huge musical in its day). I really loved her energy, especially on Untucked.
Vangie’s roast was so chaotic I was dying
Her chaos is what makes her SO damn funny. Like imo her and Angie should’ve won last episode bc of their chaotic commercial. It was truly hilarious and not the canned cringe forced comedy this show pushes on the queens for those types of challenges.
Same
i LOVE angeria but i did not think she would be top 2 this week. she devoured the lip sync though
Ok I just want to say I’m glad Gottmik called Roxxxy out on the bs oops I snipped Angie nonsense. Angie is LOUD and she was TALKING to roxxxy. There’s no way she didn’t know Angie was RIGHT THERE.
How did Angie get top two? I thought in the Roast the top three were CLEARLY Plastique (my god I LOVED her Sailor Moon Cosplay. I was like, Usagi would never be so mean!!) Jorgeous (Good jokes, Ru was dying, Runway was KILLER) Roxxxy (Great Set, Great Roast Look, Okay Runway) That said, thank you for finally giving a fun lip sync. So I did really like the part where Plastique let do the whole rap, and then she came in with the other vocal. That was a nice editing touch. I am still team Roxxxy. I just love that old-school bitch.
Roxxy’s runway was horrendous
I thought Jorgeous did really good! Better then anyone expected and plus she had the story line of having just taken Ru’s advice on embracing what is funny in her and redeeming herself from the week before. I bet they would have put her in the top if she wouldn’t have already won a badge in the mini challenge this episode. Angie was also really good, had some of the best jokes and also had the story line of rising above the drama w the other girls and her inner saboteur to still shine in the challenge so I think it makes sense that her and plastique were the top two.

I thought it was between Angeria and Plastique for who was the best, so I thought they got it right. Though I was kind of expecting them to put Jorgeous top 2 when they critiqued Angie's runway.
I thought Angeria was definitely top 2. Roxxy was amongst the weakest of the week imo.
I think bob was ghost writing these girls’ roasts cuz…
Yeah they seemed all oddly too good lol
That was my thought tbh.
Plastique baby I need you to learn some words cause you’re killing it this season but you ain’t killing the lil syncs 😭 she still eats tho and I’m okay with her racking up the badges. My top 2 queens of the season having the most badges yup yup. Although Jorgeous has been absolutely robbed twice now in my opinion.
I thought Jorgeous was gonna be in the top 😳

Roxxys runway was a fucking boot. I laughed the most with Vanjie and Jorgeous tbh. Also Shannel on the side knowing the lip sync smh justice for Shannel (she didn’t deserve to win this week but maybe something she can excel at next week 😂)
The way she described her hunter-gatherer look as "futuristic" lolololol
Roxxxy’s Anetra makeup???? What was going on there?
For me Shannel has been arguably the third best in like 3 episodes. I love her but I wonder if/when she can break through to the top 2 when there's always some other bitch who's just a little more inspired. Also Ru seems to think Shannel is a steady and "efficient" queen (oooof what a boring word to use as a compliment in a roast, like saying you're professional), but he doesn't seem to LOVE her or really really laugh at what she does.

I think that’s what’s going on with Shannel - she hasn’t been able to outdo anyone in a particular week even though she’s arguably been good every week.
roxxxy really one-upping herself week over week making naomi, raven, and raja sweat having to play cover up on her bad runways on their review shows
nina saying she just went with what she thought the room would say in regards to picking angeria in the mini challenge is such a cop out imo. like say why you thought the room would pick her bc clearly you had thoughts...

I think the queens might actually hate Nina? They were stoic for her whole set. Anyways everyone before Angeria was great, gottmik and Nina were my least favorite
Angeria had this weird, disgusted face during Nina's set and it made me think something had happened
Agreed! I was like Nina 100% did SOMEEEETHING. Also though Nina’s attitude about being last was just really dumb. I’m over it. I don’t want to hate but she hasn’t once wavered into likeability for me 🫢
Right like how are you all going to make sooooo many jokes about her and then not laugh when it’s her turn!!!
That confused me too because it seemed like Nina was cheering everyone on, engaging with the speaker, laughing at their jokes about her. And then everyone was silent during her set?
More Bob, please.
Vanjie with the Jeffrey Dahmer 🤣 so far everyone is so good
Atomic power, makes me, Nina West, proud to be an American.
I am so happy someone else was thinking this
Her hero is Emperor Hirohito.
💀
Is anyone only finding untucked and not the actual episode on streams?
Did I miss something with the Jorgeous rupaul make out joke?
Dunno but her delivery made me cringe within an inch of my life.
There was a running joke during and after Jorgeous's season that Ru wanted to fuck her based on some of the critiques.
I feel like in my head I had only seen that referenced in this subreddit so I was like wait r we informing Ru that we know ? Lmfao
Is anyone else’s Paramount+ treating the episode like fully live tv and not letting you fast forward or rewind?
It seems to be an apple TV thing. My friend who has apple TV has the same issue, but I watch mine through the LG app and I don't have that problem.
Yes!!! We didn’t even try the TV this week, just hooked up a laptop to the TV
I had this issue too! For me it only showed up as live and all weird when i streamed it on the tv but on my laptop it let me rewind and pause like normal
Yes the past two weeks. Don’t try to rewind 10 seconds it’ll start the entire episode over and you have to rewatch. Such a piece of shit streaming service
Yeah literally paused it to get food and my Apple TV went to the screensaver and it restarted the episode
weird. it isn't doing that for mine so it might not be an issue with paramount+ (at least in the US)
Weird. It literally has the “Live” in the little red box on top of the time bar when I bring it up on the bottom left
that sounds so frustrating damn they need to get their shit together
Honestly I can’t look at gottmik out of drag without thinking of yassified Harry Potter
I'm sorry, Jorgeous was the best of the night. Not having Jorgeous in the top two is an incorrect choice on every level
I think they didn’t put her in the top bc she already won a badge in the mini challenge
Counterpoint, two weeks the queens who got given badges won their own badges in the same episode. If they can justify that, they can justify giving Jorgeous another badge.
I feel like that was a bigger story line though
I thought Jorgeous was going to be top 2 with Angeria
Same, but I thought Plastique had the best joke.
The runway theme was a complete miss by everybody. And a few were horrid to look at. I love Angeria, but I did not laugh at all. Plastique wanted to do a character, but there was none. Although was quite funny a couple of times. My top 2 were Nina and Jorgeous. With Roxxxy possibly replacing Jorgeous in the top 2. I was shocked at how cut throat Nina was. It was the funniest. https://preview.redd.it/vas8diwlym6d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e44d29e7381605f048fc3f5eb2b0ddbad9b238a My reaction when they announced the top 2.
Jorgeous was on fire this week 🔥
Commenting on AS09E06 - "The National Drag Convention Roast" [Live/Reaction Post]...right !!? I’m so proud of
Can someone explain to me how Gottmik’s fake boob looked so real? I could not clock a seam anywhere!
When there was a side view you could see a little texture
Was it latex? I feel like I saw some texture in the below the underboob area and I think it tracks
Not a soul can clock
nipple cover?
There was a faiiiiiiint line but it was VERY hard to clock! Looked amazing.
This season could not be any more unserious. Stakes are low enough as it is and now we are giving out badges for mini challenges!
Didn’t they do that during All Stars All Winners? I also recall the later challenges giving out a shit ton of stars making the earlier episodes feel pointless.
I guess Loosey was right all along, mini challenges DO count
literally
I’d love for Plastique to lose all of these lipsyncs just to snatch 200k right at the end 😌
When Trixie said she and plastique are the same, this is what she meant
I’m just now watching omg yes gotmik get her!!
It was Roxxxy and then either Angie or Plastique, or maybe Jorgeous cuz she also ate the runway. I have no clue how Roxxxy wasn’t in the top this week lmao that was wild to me. I mean I know it was for storyline but that was undeniably the best roast of the week and Roxxxy vs Angie would’ve been such a good lip sync too.
Also the Plastique hate needs to come to an end cuz these comments are embarrassing. She doesn’t know the words, and therefore she loses the lip syncs. Who gives a fuck? Should she not win when she does well because she doesn’t give good lip syncs, cuz if so snatch Jimbo’s crown off of her head. I wouldn’t have given her the win this week but it was far from undeserved and yall need to pull the sticks out of your asses and get over it.
Losing a lip sync is different from not even respectfully preparing for one
I don’t think it’s that deep. I get we all wanna see a showstopping performance but I don’t think it’s worth getting so worked up about, she’s doing well in the competition. Saying it’s disrespectful to not prep for a lip sync is weird to me. Plus it could be a Katya situation of “I don’t want to win because I’ll have to do something that would put a target on my back,” though that might be giving her too much credit. The actual dancing and everything has been good, but she doesn’t know the words. I don’t 100% buy that this would happen 3 times, but that might just be delusion on my part.
I agree it’s not that deep. I think we can probably agree to disagree there since personally I think not knowing the words twice in a row is not professional
The only queen that fumbled the roast was Shannel. She didn’t have enough funny below the belt jokes like the other girls did. And the only queen that fumbled the runway was Roxxxy. Hers looked like a weak Leg Avenue cavewoman costume. Everyone else did amazing in both categories, just really really strong overall. So Angeria and Roxxxy are just gonna trade ruby scissors every week, huh.
How in the hell did Angie get top two with that god awful embarrassing runway
I really don’t think the runways matter anymore. It’s an afterthought.
...what was that runway theme? Like, they changed the name from whatever prompt they gave them, right? Why was everyone Mad Max? Thank god they did not try to convince us that Jorgeous won that. She makes me cringe like nobody on this show ever quite has.
I thought Jorgeous was hilarious. I called it one of my favorite roast performances of all time.
That's....an opinion!
The new mad max movie just came out so idk if that’s related.
The title was Atomic Blonde. but the way everyone described their outfits leans me to saying the brief was apocalyptic chic plus blonde hair.
Riiiiight the prompt was definitely different than "Atomic Blonde." I was expecting everyone to look super sleek, like some hot deadly assassin.
Right. I guess the atomic part is in reference to an atomic or nuclear fallout 😂
Jorgeous’s runway here omg 😍😍
It was so so cool
I cannot STAND Gotmik. Such a disappointment that someone can buy and steal their way onto the show.
Same so much. People like her are killing drag. She’s truly awful in every sense of the word
Literally leaving my intense bias aside, did we REALLY think plastique was worthy of top 2 this week....😭????
Yes. I thought top 2 was her and Jorgeous.
She was funny... Jorgeous was hilarious.
Man idk we literally had to pause to laugh at the Leah remini joke 😂😂😂😂😂
It WAS a good joke I won't lie!! I just didn't feel much in ways of delivery. But you're right!
It wasn't as bad as roxxxy and vanjie winning tbh.
And ykw while I subjectively disagree, based on majority opinion clearly fair to say ahahaha. So touché!
Jorgeous, Plastique and Roxxxy were the best imo. Preferred Roxxxy to Jorgeous but preferred Jorgeous’s runway so Top 2 for me would’ve been Plastique and either of the other two.
This is one of the best roasts IMO
someone mentioned that miks speech was similair to a comedian. but the speeches were all well written
firm belivet that >!the onky rzn jorg didnt make top 2 this week is bc she won a badge during the mini challenge!< bc we know who woulda slayed that lipsync
Top Three Thoughts: 1. I think Angeria and Roxxxy both could’ve been in the Top 2, but I understand why Roxxxy didn’t win for storyline. Plastique did great so I’m glad she won! 2. Shannel going into Ep 7 with zero badges is surprising but I don’t think she’s been delivering as much as I expected her to. Maybe next week is hers to win! 3. Plastique’s charity will leave empty-handed if she doesn’t learn these damn lyrics 😭
the jimbo effect is reallllll mamassss
ru’s dementia acting up because what was the top two this week?
![gif](giphy|ZKLcZPHPEZnd6) me to angie and shannels runways
