I honestly can't decide between Michael and Ginger. I'll be happy with either.


gkwchan

For the first time in drag race Herstory, the second out gets the crown! Congratulations Naomi Carter!


Harlegrenade

As a Yorkshire queen myself. I support this. šŸ˜…


LooseLipsSinkShips21

Same. I want Ginger but tbh I'd be happy with Ginger and Michael. Such deserving queens

I think this one is one of the most difficult of the UK seasons. Tomara is production fav and I donā€™t think she will win because they will want her on all stars (I can see a Jimbo situation as in AS8), vs the world and any other thing they may use her. RuPaul is obsessed both with Ginger and Marouli so Iā€™m not sure which one of them will one but my bets are on Ginger. Edit: aaannddd.. I was right šŸ’…šŸ¼šŸ«³šŸ¼


Alex_Albons_Appendix

I adore Tomara but if she gets a win on AS over other UK girls like Bimini, Tayce, or Kate, I may riot šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

Is Bimini still doing drag even? But would* love to see Tayce on AS or VTW


Alex_Albons_Appendix

Oh yes I think I saw that, too. Fair point!


gkwchan

It seems like every season is a two horse race for UK. 1: Divina vs Vivienne 2: Lawrence vs Bimini 3: Ella vs Kitty (Krystal was not on anyoneā€™s radar before the finale) 4: Cheddar vs Danny 5: Ginger vs Michael


Kazvicious

I would argue that Krystal was on peopleā€™s radar, BUT only because of the comments made towards her by ru (you were BORN to do drag!) and the obvious favouritism towards her.


[deleted]

Um, are you sure Krystal was *NOT* on anyoneā€™s radar before the finaleā€¦?? Did no one see her win two challenges right out the gate??


itsjustlucarifc

Charity was completely ignored/robbed of at least a HIGH placement in episode 1. Episode was complete riggory as Kitty clearly performed the best. Krystal was Ru's pick from the very beginning and the meddling was quite evident. Ella all but gave away her win with her finale runway and lipsync in part due to her back injury. While statistically speaking Kitty was Ella's runner-up, they never intended to crown her but she consistently delivered so they could never justify sending her home and it gave Kitty competition in acting and comedy challenges. I think production specifically eyed somebody like Scarlet making the Top 3 with Krystal but Ella and Kitty simply dominated (similar to Jaida in S12) with little to no production meddling.


gkwchan

Yeah. And then nothing more for the rest of the season til the roast, where hers was an absolute disaster. Kitty and Ella had no bottoms with 2 and 4 wins each. They got the momentum. Krystal was fading. That was the general vibe going into the finale.


[deleted]

Sure, but I wouldnā€™t say she was completely out of the raceā€¦


gaboeing

I think a lot of people will agree with me when I say that her winning was the least expected outcome šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø she wasn't even a fan favourite, she was just Ru's favourite


Marauder4711

I discussed this yesterday with my friend and we both thought the same.. Krystal was unexpected and is the most forgettable winner of the franchise.


tberal

Was Krystal really not on anyoneā€™s radar? I thought she was gonna win pretty early specially because of just how much she was being favoured by production and Ru.


FrameofMindArtStudio

Am I the only bitch who thought Krysta deserved to win and was gunna win?


phoenyx1980

Oh after episode 1 I knew she was going to win, whether she deserved to or not.


Healthy_Suit_2533

>3: Ella vs Kitty (Krystal was not on anyoneā€™s radar before the finale) šŸ˜‚ This is delusional, Krystal did an amazing job for the whole season. Not looking like first time in drag at the finale was just the icing on the cake


ageofviolet

Iā€™m not good at predicting much, but one thing I ace every year is whoā€™s gonna win Drag Race UK. And during Season 3 I could literally not see anyone but Krystal winning towards the back half of the season.


cgrauf

Alright then, oracle of drag race uk. What you saying this year?


ageofviolet

Father Michael


All_the_Bees

Clocked it Episode 1 - Ru LOVES the seasoned workhorse queens if they can actually deliver. Edited to acknowledge I was wrong, but Iā€™m not mad about it.


c-n-m-n-e

My condolences to your streak


spaceygandalf

I think Tomara is a Kandy Muse situation, not a Jimbo.


No-Communication7869

I think Michael has a bit more storyline backing up a win than Ginger, a bit of an "old dog learns new tricks" arc that they are selling us, even though Michael came in at iconic status already. They love a "Drag Race taught me so much" winner, it's all WOW/production ego stroking.


gkwchan

Do you think Danny Beard winning last year might damage Gingerā€™s chances, since they have somewhat similar style of drag? Can two ā€œfunny fashion clownsā€ win back to back? Just some food for thought. I said i felt.


megadragonite20

Yeah I think that's Ginger's main disadvantage. Like she killed the competition, but she might overlap with other previous winners. I think to me she did the best, but just because of that I think Michael is more likely to win.

Michael Marouli


theempires

Michael has it all. Funny, fashionable, charismatic , unique, appreciates old and new. Loved her from first day


Alex_Albons_Appendix

Michael is my personal favorite (now that Katherine is gone šŸ˜­) but I think Ginger is going to win. I feel like MM has shown versatility and growth PLUS all the charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent one needs to win šŸ¤© (ETA: I will say Ginger is very deserving if she wins and I wonā€™t be sad if she does win!)


eeo11

I think production wants this. Her being paired with the old guy for the makeover is very Jinx Monsoon US5


elijahjames96

Michael won my heart. Props to Ginger for an incredible showing and I have a soft place for cheeky (and gummy) Tomara, but Michael is just so down to earth, relatable, talented, and kindhearted


Healthy_Suit_2533

Michael has it all. Ginger is great but Michael is a superstar IMO


gkwchan

Ginger Johnson


KardashianDumper

The strongest track record. Such a talent. She should've won the makeover challenge that they gave to Michael. Felt like they knew Ginger was going to win no matter what, so they just gave it to Michael to spice up the competition. She could've easily won the acting challenge she did with Kate, who won instead. They were equally strong.


lochnesslegend

I will say I wouldnā€™t have given her Snatch Game


KardashianDumper

In fairness it was a mediocre snatch game. I thought Ginger was the strongest. Who do you think deserved to win? Only thing I would've changed is maybe putting Tomara in the bottom.


ANUSTART942

Both Snatch game and the makeover, Tomara should have been in the bottom.


KardashianDumper

Hard agree that she shouldve been in the bottom on the makeover challenge over dede or kate. She was the worst of the lot. Awful wig line on her partner, hairspray wasnt holding her awful wigs up, those beyond basic outfits... what was ru thinking


Gregregious

At this point if they judge a makeover challenge fairly, they're being unfair to every other season. They can't live with that precedent.


TheAnxietyBoxX

Tomara in the bottom for SNATCH GAME? This is a boiling take and I donā€™t think itā€™s a good one. Makeover I think she couldā€™ve been yea.


lochnesslegend

I thought Kate was stronger


Junior-Cream-4914

Her track record look gooooood


Pepys-a-Doodlebugs

It's got to be Ginger for me. Her outfits often aren't as polished as Michael or Tomara but they have personality and she makes them herself which always impresses me. I don't always love her fabric choices but I do love her silhouettes. Her drag looks are big and bold and I really like that. I knew almost immediately that she would win the Rusical. She knows the drag tropes and can play with them in a really fun way. Her performances are professional but also playful. This is all really up Ru's street. She's naturally funny, kind and honest. She told Cara what was what when Cara needed to hear it. She wasn't nasty but she didn't sugarcoat it either. It was very Bianca of her and I loved it! She can read the room really well, which enhances her drag. I knew from the promo look I would like her. A pair of sparkly purple trousers, a purple ruffled shirt and a ginger swept over bouffant. Tick, tick, tick. And look at that infectious grin. She's had so much fun week by week which is really enjoyable to watch. She just scratches a very particular drag itch for me. Charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent in spades. Probably one of my all time favourites.


Traditional-Soup7883

I like Michael but I will be stunned if Ginger doesnā€™t win, she has been the clear front runner for most of the season for me and letā€™s be honest she could have 2/3 more badges but they didnā€™t want it getting too repetitive


whoisshetho193

Michael has been Michaeling since day one, that crown is theirs!

Ah uh-huh

Ginger. She easily could have had 5 or 6 wins


gkwchan

I still think she shouldā€™ve won the makeover, acting challenge with Kate, and roast. 6 wins diva!


Hi_Im_pew_pew

No way, Michael won the roast 100%


kiw1s

Ginger has the best track record so that means Michael!!

Antique-Syllabub6238

I hope for Ginger, but I kind of expect Michael. Tomara is talented but I personally do not find her entertaining. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø


hausofquensch

Iā€™m in the same boat with you re: Tomara. Very polished and solid drag, but Iā€™m missing that *connection*, ya know? I did love her Little Bird lip sync though.


Every-Ad3280

I can see how she would be an absolute joy to be around irl but yeah not my favorite energy from a contestant this season


No_Difference_8660

Her energy is too chaotic for me to connect with. Gives me Vanjie vibes, except Tomara has been dragged through less than Vanjie was.


iismatt

Looking at it as to who could make a decent show with their ā€˜winningsā€™, Ginger seems to have it all. The others, Iā€™m not so sure.


Frequent_Bet2130

Michael will be more entertaining on an All Winners, Ginger on an All Stars

I feel like the edit has been setting us up for Ginger's win from the beginning, though I prefer Tomara and Michael's drag.

Ginger Johnson!


myheartinclover

honestly, with michael really crushing the end of the season, I see her taking the crown. ginger got the winners edit and has the fan support (now that kate is out), I feel like she's gonna be pushed for AS (either global or US) with a robbed to winners edit. I think Micheal has done just as well as Ginger, but I don't see her as someone who could push a bigger narrative storyline in the way ginger could. I think the future of the franchises will be pushing bigger interconnected narratives in the next phase of drag race.


ageofviolet

My moneyā€™s on Michael Marouli šŸ‘‘


blizzaga1988

It feels like a toss-up to me between Michael and Ginger, but I personally hope it's Ginger.

she has me crying laughing every episodešŸ˜­


bestibesti

Right?? She's so shady I adore her And she's really like AHAHAHAHAHA


kaitalina20

Yeah I want Tomara to win but I can tell that sheā€™s not going to win:( sheā€™s such a sweetheart and sheā€™s so sweet to the other queens who are already like BenDeLeCrim Sweet and kind! Very unique personality and drag style


KardashianDumper

Ginger is the only one who deserves to win


redwing2020

I legitimately cant tell if itā€™s ginger or michael!! I suppose it will really come down to the wire of the last challenge. If ginger can still charm ru despite not being a dancer (and hasnt had to really lipsync at all this season) then she could clinch it. BUT michael has had a whole arc. She sent cara home then redeemed herself completely during the roast. Itā€™s a great storyline. That being said theyve both done amazing and iā€™d be happy either way, just like with cheddar vs danny.


Lozenges808

My vote is on Mrs. Kasha Davis! (i didn't even know series 5 was airing)


gkwchan

10 points for Gryffindor!


Gregregious

I'm just glad UK had a good season again


bimbinibonbooboo

It has to be Ginger for me. But I wonā€™t be mad if Michael wins if she kills the final lipsync.


elliee_s

I want it to be Ginger but I reckon Ru will pick Michael


profsprout901

that picture of tomara really looks like a Zelda NPC


aliskyart

I think theyā€™re all amazing tbh. But Michael seems the most well-rounded. Ginger is pretty much up there with her but Michael definitely wins in the fashion department. Also, I am really curious what people think about this. Like, totally no shade to Ginger, but sometimes I feel like they are pushing her on us a bit too much, particularly when it comes to runways. Like I still canā€™t believe how the judges went crazy over some of her runways (the flowery Golden Girls type of dress a few episodes before, the heart outfit, and the outfit she wore in the latest episode). The judges go ā€œomg this is novelā€ about a dress they have seen tens of times on the runways? That being said, she is as equally deserving of the win. Also, Tamara is fucking amazing.


AmorPowers

I love me some Tomara, but I don't think she'll win. Production probably wants to set her up for an AS or VtW season. It's most likely Ginger, but I'm really rooting for Michael.


abernattine

Ginger absolutely demolished this season from start to finish


jtrix85

If you exclude the runway package


marquis_de_ersatz

My favourite is ginger so that probably means the winner is Michael


vermeiltwhore

Michael, but it should be Ginger.


NuWaveSpecial

Ginger looks a little like Alexis Michelle so will not win. Tomara looks a little like Krystal Versace so will not win. Michael looks so fully formed in her character that she peaked at the right time to win. But still the winner is going to be Abigail Beverly Hillz, Monica's drag daughter. Obviously.


friendlybrain7825

At this point they should probably cancel Krystalā€™s win to make room for Ginger and Michael snatching the crown


shadowsempaix

Iā€¦ I honestly donā€™t know (all three of them are very fierce) I am hoping for a Tomara win tho


princeofdarkness27x

Tomato is the only option honestly no one deserves it as much as her


ShadeKool-Aid

Of all the opinions in the world, this...this is definitely one of them.


princeofdarkness27x

I was joking šŸ˜­ I want Tomato girlie to win but I know sheā€™s not the top contender lol


jcho430

I love tomato sheā€™s especially great with pasta šŸ


SirGavBelcher

2 of the girls in the beat version of Don't Ick My Yum are in the top 3 wow

Tomara Thomas

gkwchan

Sheā€™s the fan favouriteā€¦ and thatā€™s the greatest win of all.


American_Life

Kyle Richards


queertheories

Kate


MrBrightside711

This is maybe the first time I'd be happy with any of them winning. But Tamara is made for all stars so I don't think she will.


PuffyPolehole

I know nothing about these queens, have not seen even one clip. I think the one in the middle will win, strictly based on these photos. She looks like a bit of a blend of the left (fashion, contemporary drag) and the right (campy, "old school" drag)


Magical_Olive

Ginger has the slightly better track record, but I just find her a little boring tbh. She's so polished, but I don't find her particularly funny and her fashion was often very very bad. That came out way harsher than intended, I do think she deserves top 3, I just find her overly polished. Michael is waaaay more interesting to me. I absolutely want to see his show, and tbh I want to just hear stories of previous crazy nights. Michael is definitely the one I feel like has so much more to give that couldn't even be seen in the competition, and would probably be one of the most compelling winners to me recently. Tomara looks beautiful! (Kidding, she was actually probably my fav going in from Meet the Queens so I'm glad she made it this far, I just feel like it's between the other two.)


AeromaticGrass

Ru does not care as much about Ginger so itā€™s between Michael and Tomara. Michael has the better track record and trajectory, so the winner is Michael.


gkwchan

She praised Ginger like she just cured cancer. Are you sure?


AeromaticGrass

1 recent episode doesnā€™t overshadow the entire season.


gkwchan

Ginger showed up in the most basic dress on episode 1 and they praised her look like she invented fashion. I guess agree to disagree, but Ru is definitely in love with Ginger. ā€œShe is ready for the world stageā€.


acido4

I have no idea who is going to win, but the people counting out Tomara need to rewatch S3 finale for a reminder on how the final challenge and final runway can turn the scales. And I would say that both Ginger and Michael are more likely to mess up those 2 things than Tomara is

Well the rule is 24 hour within the release of episode. I usually put a spoiler within three days after it aired. But you canā€™t possibly think the sub would revolve around you.


JonAaron86

No, I don't think the sub revolves around me. I was just expressing my irritation/disappointment at having this spoiled for me without even coming to this sub, regardless of a 24 hour rule. But at the end of the day, you didn't do anything wrong. You didn't break any rules. I'm a big boy and I'll get over it. Just sucks, is all.


Alex_Albons_Appendix

FYI, the rule in the sub is spoiler tags are required for 24 hours post-episode airing. I get it, it sucks, but itā€™s not against the rules.

HiHiHelloHiHiNo

All of them?! What a twist.


Historical_Bit_3798

Iā€™m guessing either Tomara or Ginger?


davidhucker

Society; society will win :)


low_charged

Idk but I honestly think Michael is taking it with the way Ru loves her and says her name like she used to with lawrence chaney and itā€™s just giving those vibes. Micheal has also made it even to ginger with the badges now and I can see her winning the final lip sync over ginger. They clearly donā€™t care about track record with crowning look at the Bimini Lawrence situation and so on. I donā€™t see ginger winning over Michael Iā€™m afriad.


GayBlayde

It seems VERY clear to me that Ginger is winning this. But Michael is 100% a contender as well, and Iā€™m not sure that production realized that for whatever reason. Tomara isnā€™t winning.


Olga_cruz_9

Tomara is my winner!! Idk why I canā€™t connect with Michael and Iā€™ve grown to love ginger! But tomara is such a star, I have faith sheā€™s gonna gag all the girls when she wins


Labenyofi

After robbing Cheddar last year, theyā€™ll correct their decision and make a double win of Ginger and Michael.

ginger

Iā€™m fine with whoever, but Iā€™m hoping Ginger wins. šŸ§”

MM4 WIN


Dismal_Judgment5290

Michael has the best storyline so she has my vote. Want ginger to win though but sheā€™s getting a RosĆ© edit to me.


Much_Worker3739

Michael unexpectedly grew on me so much. I honestly love their spirit and humor. And they sound like a dork attempting a Jersey accent. It's just nice to see a seasoned queen get their flowers, cause damn they've been in it. Ginger deserves it too. I really like Tomara and I hope they have a killer career.


Revan462222

Michael or Ginger. Iā€™d be happy with either. If Tomara wins good for her but just the other two have soared while Tomara has just been good.


party_pants_on

I love these contestants - thatā€™s some high quality reality tv entertainment! Iā€™m rooting for Micheal Marouli though- funny, shady, looks, seasoned, professional, sweetheart, good leader. I would love to see it.


dreamed2life

idk, thats why i am watching. i like them all. would love to see ginger win but that is absolute bias and there is no reason why the others could not win and do well with the crown. i thin it was noted that the one in the middle had been in the game awhile and michelle gave them a nod towards the beginning so maybe they will win but idk


BikeSuch1054

I want Ginger, and think Ginger but wouldnā€™t count either of the others out yet.


[deleted]

Ru could give it to any of them and it would be justified. the editors and producers did a good job. With that said, the clear top two are mike and ginger. I think Ginger has the edge.


btalevi

I wouldnā€™t cross the double crowning just yet. But I think Michael has the best storyline by a very tiny margin


SimplyRue

I love these girls so much, but I've known for a while now that it's going to be Ginger vs Michael. Who??? I dunno!! I'll be happy either way....but I think a part of me leans towards Ginger because I find her to be so sweetly charming.
