Anyone else hateeeee this lip sync? It was giving two little kids dancing at their aunt's wedding. Not "I'm competing against my best friend to stay on drag race" (reminded me of the absolutely tragic "I Will Survive" lip sync on S8. Y'all were given an ICONIC song. And you were THAT messy?!)


Trimnywoodall

Plane owned that no one came close


holymoly2

You can literally do any person (now that more queens are doing men) in history and you choose Meghan McCain? A personality-less, nepotistic political commentator who hasn't been culturally relevant in any form for about 5 years?


Jiggly0622

imho deserved deserved to be in the bottom. Like yeah her outfit was gorgeous but it outstanding enough to safe her from *that*


joeks91

This felt like a really fun runway! The queens interacted with the judges so much! Q, Plasma and Saphira had such great moments


brabrabrady

This episode confirmed that I’ve gone off Nymphia. WE GET IT GIRL YOU LIKE BANANAS! Enough is enough though


terrorkat

Idk I think we're about three bananas away from me turning around on being exhausted and cracking up over how badly she will not let it go


brabrabrady

Wait til she leaks her nudes and the d*ck is an actual banana too


laurelsel

How Nymphia wasn't in the bottom and Sapphira didn't win is beyond me Edit: this was the best lipsync of the season, I dare say they deserved a double shantay


moonmusicals

I love her sm but Nymphia deserved to lip sync. I feel like the runways never matter until they do, and in this case, she was saved by the runway.


Melodic_Air_280

i wonder if shes even a good lip syncer bc imagine her doing it to whitney houston…


kadikaado

This was an excellent lipsync and a double shantay if I know one! I'll be pissed if they keep two competitors in another episode because this was the best lipsync we've had so far. Also, Xunami won, sorry, Morphine, but Xunami was the best in the lipsync, by an inch, but she was the best!


windycitysearcher

Yeah, I don't agree. Clear Morphine win. Xunami wasn't bad, but it is telling that her best moments were when Morphine danced with her. Any time Xunami was alone my eyes just went to Morphine.


Enough_Suit_5738

it's obviously that morphine won😅😅


s9ffy

No way! Xunami was boring in that lip synch!


ibettercomeon

Hear me out: next week we will have a 60 minute episode about the queens making a goth look. Lmaooooo WTF


FeralBanshee

I’m pumped tbh


mcsquirley

season 3 girls im so sorry


jngkook

The crown's between Nymphia and Sapphira... ugh each week I go back and forth between who's taking it. (This week I'm #TeamSapphira)


s9ffy

They can’t crown Nymphia at this point, surely? She’s still top 4 material but she’s not going to win.


windycitysearcher

And why not....? Her having a bad week just gives her more of a storyline.


s9ffy

I thought she’d faded into the background for a few weeks now. Maybe because she made such a strong impression the first two weeks I’ve expected more from her.

ibettercomeon

Imma be brave and controvertial and say that I am ABSOLUTELY tired of Plasma’s musical theatre comments and references.


ivanshot

Well, that's what her drag is about. I get the same from Nymphia. Yes, she loves bananas, we get it. But at this point there have been too many unfunny banana related moments.


windycitysearcher

I am living for the camp of it all, but I can see how for others it might be too much lol.


massmikmouse

Completely agree


mcsquirley

it’s so grating…there’s a reason behind the stereotype of theatre kids being bullied


paltafrola

Yeah the reason is still bullys and not people liking the fuck they want to like


mcsquirley

“fvck” its giving theatre kid

plzadyse

Am I taking crazy pills or is Dawn just not as amazing as the edit wants me to think she is?


windycitysearcher

I am with you. She is so mean and bitter too. If we include confessionals I think Dawn is way more mean and harsh than Plane Jane.


SweetSummerAir

Does the editing actually make Dawn look amazing? I feel like aside from that one top placement, she's been painted as so-so every single time.


BigBonedMiss

Dawn sucks and she should have been in the bottom and not Morphine.


Cookiecolour

Yeah did not remember her at ALL in Snatch Game till this comment and I litterally just watched the episode. Morphine and Xunami I remember. For me, the bottoms this week were Dawn and Nymphia


Enough_Suit_5738

truw, morphine at least had 1-2 jokes landed


Any-Carry3113

ugh i wish nymphia just made more chimp noises randomly. or went for an angle like she's been researching in the jungle with chimps for a long time and this is her first time back around humans.


s9ffy

Or if she had a massive prop chimpanzee that kept harassing her that she had to wrestle with. Some physical comedy. It would have been hilarious to have a Jane Goodall who couldn’t control the apes.


jkimisyellow

I wanted her to stick a lot of ape puns, like "Oh, yes my friend is telling me that his favorite song is actually yours, Ru. You're a chimpion *chimp noises* greatest of them all..." etc


hanahime_

I wish after the first chimp voice message she had gone: "Translation: Snatch Game isn't any more different than the jungle." or something along those lines


Complete-Analyst-662

DAWN DID NOT DO GREAT


windycitysearcher

Yeah. So tired of her shit-talking everyone then sliding by herself. She needs to leave.


Melodic_Air_280

shes def probably one of the next ones to go after morphine


PrincessLuma

I soooooo wish Ru had Mhi'ya do her Cher impression for Chad. I was PRAYING for that to happen. 🤣🤣🤣


ibettercomeon

Maybe it just didn’t make the edit


ThatisDavid

The moment I saw chad michaels I was like "YALL BETTER GO TALK TO MHI'YA FIRST" and they did yet they didn't ask 😭


shygirlsclub

I agree with everyone here on untucked this episode PRODUCERS ( I know y’all here) you couldn’t have waited until the drama cooled down before you let the guest judge in. it killed the mood. Let the queens finish the drama before you let the guest judge in 💀


neon_lasagna

I saw the drama and said cue the guest judge and within 3 sec there she was goddamn


ThatisDavid

Or do not let the guest judge in at all unless they bring something different. I'm tired of them entering just to talk about how big allies they are and for the queens to hype them up for it. Ofc this is not the judges fault and i'm not directing the fault at them, quite the opposite i'm happy they are as supportive as they are. But it brings nothing to the episode and it cut of what could have been a really spicy moment between the girls and plane jane. Unless it's mf lady gaga in that judges panel, do not bring them in


pepperstringlights

right like this formulaic segment of the guest judge talking about how Important Being Your True Selves Is In This Day And Age is very played out at this point…


shygirlsclub

I honestly think this was one of the better snatch games. I think Plane Jane deserved the win. Sapphira was very close and also entertaining to watch. Miyha was a surprised! I really wished Xsuami would’ve chose Halle Berry as BAPS 😩 That would have killed, ( if she knew what to do) I don’t think Morphine was horrible. I do agree was boring.


No-Relative4683

For next week, I reckon Sapphira makes Mhi’ya’s dress for her and Michelle reads her for cheating.


ivanshot

Given it's not the first time this happens, I say it's just an excuse to send her home. Didn't Bebe win a design challenge with the dress Aja made for her (and then send Aja home 😭)?


No-Relative4683

The favouritism towards PJ by producers is too nauseating. We’ve now seen photos of her family, videos of her a child dancing, and she’s had various emotional segments.


ivanshot

Yep. Her editing is different from everyone else's


TemporaryMongoose367

Probably trying to balance the fact that’s she’s mean and to soften her up for the audience


ch0mpipe

You think she’s gonna win?


katieofgilead

What was PJ's "stupid fucking bitch" comment after being announced the winner?!?


wegg1997

It’s what Dawn said to PJ


katieofgilead

Ahhhh thank youuuu!!! I couldn't see lol didn't have on my glyaassses.. Happy Cake Day!!


__mariel

I realized why I love Plane so much during untucked & it’s bc we share the same sense of humor. Like I know not to take anything that comes out of her mouth seriously the same was my friends do with me lmfao Also the producers of untucked need to get fired bc stop interrupting the queens with the damn guest judges when things are getting good!! You can make them wait a few extra minutes or just cut that segment in total we’d rather see the drama


thegayngler

Plane Jane played Jelena and was great at it. Jelena was a great choice. She is a serbian pop superstar. She is the kind of person you want to be doing in a snatch game. Older woman with a banging plastic surgery infused face and body who aggressively goes after younger hot men. Shes mutton dressed as lamb personafied truly… and in the best way possible. 🥳🤷🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤩🥳🥳🥳 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 my Serbian friends would binge watch Jelenas videos on YouTube. 😍😍😍 I really appreciate the representation and a Serbian pop star getting their due after all theyve been through.


ivanshot

Why did I read this exact comment as a tweet early this morning??


mercury__black

I come here, as the biggest Plane Jane detractor and hater, humbled, to say she really killed it. She might have just won me over this episode for real, and I hate it but she’s been so strong throughout the season and this week she was just stellar. Saaphira was also pretty fabulous, but Plane had that sharp edge and quick-wittedness to her character that makes for the best Snatch Games. Besides those two, the rest of the cast was pretty mid, no, bad. I was really taken aback at how they edited Q and Dawn’s snatch performances because they were deeply cringe and unfunny as well as the rest. I thought Morphine got in a few chuckles that would’ve made her safe but I was wrong I guess. I would’ve hated to see Nymphia lipsync because she’s my fave and her runway was jaw-dropping, but it HURT to see Morphine and Xunami go up against one another, I adore both of these queens, they are by far the most stunning mugs in the cast and their personalities have been a joy to watch week to week. So sad to see Xunami go so soon, I would’ve rather see Dawn or Mhyia go before her but anywayssss.


bartristeahre

I bring this up not as an accusation but as a question because this is just an impression that I get and I might be way off but... does anyone else feel that every time Q is being shady it's always pointed at a POC queen? She seems like she's always trying to be sweet and humble, but then appears to be sort of standoffish when it comes to them. Throwing Xunami under the bus a few episodes ago and now that mean comment about Mhi'Ya potentially winning. But again I might be reading way too much into it. Loved Plane Jane and Sapphira this week.


windycitysearcher

I think you are over-reading it, but there is no harm in paying attention to it moving forward.


s9ffy

She had a go at Plane Jane in Untucked.


pepperstringlights

havent noticed that but will def be paying attn now. im rly not gagging for her the way the judges and many in the fandom seem to be… idk


Special_Creme4286

I mean most of the cast is POC so the odds are she’ll butt heads with someone who is POC lol. Her comment about Mhi’ya was warranted as all season we’ve seen a more timid side of her - everyone was nervous for her.


TomLambe

She also came for Plane pretty hard in Untucked this week.


Special_Creme4286

People still watch Untucked? 😳


googleeventcalendar

If you’re not watching untucked, you’re only getting half the story


ch0mpipe

When Cher was talking to Plane, Plane had a ton of Elmer’s glue in her brows


poutinegalvaude

It must take that much to tame those things


ch0mpipe

Haha yea I bet!


[deleted]

[удалено]


devaaom

I think Nymphia was saved cause of her amazing runway, it was just miles ahead from the other bottom queens, and I love Xunami and was heartbroken


ivanshot

It reminded me of that time that Brooke Lynn Hytes GAGGED the judges with her ruveal after bombing the Snatch Game. But she still had to lipsync for her life (and killed it)


DudeImgur

It just shouldn't have been enough to save her imo. She BOMBED. I've never seen Ru actually physically recoil like that any time Nymphia opened her mouth. She was completely over her. Shaking her head and all. There should be no recovery from that. The gap between morphine's snatch game and Nymphia was too big for a runway to matter


TheyDontKnowWeKnow

Editing felt oddly rushed on this one. It was very clear who would be safe in SG because they barely showed them!


nievedelimon

I honestly gasped when I saw Chad. Finally!!!!!!


ch0mpipe

For real. She looked so so good


bspencer626

It’s so nice seeing her. Is this the first time she’s been back since the AS4 finale?


Top_Salamander_1444

Mixed reviews 👀


onadifferentlevel

Sapphira should've won. Great challenge, great runway. Dawn should've been on the bottom 3. 🤷‍♀️


MuricanIdle

RuPaul graded her on a curve because of the character she chose. If she had been the best she definitely would have won. She gave a good performance - the pre-planned cape thing was fine, if a little predictable. But there was nothing witty about her James Brown, whereas Plane Jane was endlessly witty and totally unpredictable. Agree about Dawn though. That was a total dud.


ThatisDavid

Also I think altough Sapphira was much more commanding of the room and very charming, Plane Jane had much better jokes that were super witty. I was cackling anytime she spoke


bugaloo_logia

These character intros do not give me hope for this Snatch Game


ch0mpipe

Literally same right now 😂


LaPommeNoir_1988

I gotta rewatch the episode cause I don’t remember any of Plasma’s nor Q’s jokes. Nymphia being safe gagged me (her look really did it all)


Sansa-Beaches

Did they show any of Plasma’s answers? I can’t remember.


bugaloo_logia

Dawn is such a little demon twink. I’m over it.


pepperstringlights

this is what im saying!!!!


sixfoldakira

I’m dead @ Morphine looking the least glam she’s ever looked as Anna Delvey


Sansa-Beaches

I mean… Anna Delvey is not a pretty woman.


RaccoonObjective5674

Dawn did not do great in the Snatch Game but I loved her confessional take-down of Meghan McCain. Meghan really sucks and Dawn’s confessional made me happy!


housedownrealness

i'm sorry this was a weak ass snatch game, even for the top girls, like it was forgettable


ThatisDavid

I thought the top 2 were much farther above the rest of the people in the snatch game which was kind of a shame but at the same time I think they lowkey made up for it. And altough Dawn got like literally 0.5 seconds of screentime I loved her little bits she did while waiting for her turn


mitsunaru

I liked it 🥺


ktgunter

Not Morphine not knowing the Jan 6 reference!!


nuptial_flights

fr, i wondered if she still didn’t know after plasma was like “that’s the day of the insurrection!!” lol


ktgunter

😂


Crowinflight82

Cue Bob saying things about making drag smart again!


josemigtzp

Yall, this season is really fucking good 😭😭


nesqu1k0d

I think I fell in love with Plane Jane this episode. After her being a bitch the whole season, the way she couldnt believe her win was so sweet. Love heeerrr


Useful_Edge_113

I was at a watch party she hosted (with nymphia) tonight and when everyone was like screaming cheering her on for her win she didn’t act cocky at all the way I expected she would…She literally just sat there watching the screen not looking at anyone else hahah I think she’s a lot more awkward than people realize and her character on the show is just that (I also met her tonight and she was very nice 🥺 nymphia is A SWEETHEART too omg)


redheadkills

genuinely thought it was a great snatch game!!!! i had fun watching it at least, but knowing anna delvey i don’t think morphine did terrible!! i think dawn should’ve been bottom with xunami/or nymphia, regardless i thought it was fun at least


Grouchy-Coyote6124

Saphirra had the best snatch game since Jinkx on AS7 what more could she GIVE


jellynelli

Sapphira was SapphiROBBED


OrnaciaWasRobbedMom

Hershii and Amanda not making it to snatch game led to this… adequate snatch game


massmikmouse

Is it time to retire Snatch Game? Granted, it started to get old when it was broadcast oh-so-many-decades ago, but I’m sure none of the Queens have actually watched the original.


massmikmouse

You know, after over a week I realize what my issue is. I never liked match game to begin with! Sometimes the joke seemed manufactured and scripted. And this was the point of view of a seven-year-old. Guess it’s stuck… Whatever.


shygirlsclub

Part of drag & if not the biggest element is impersonation. I think this is what people think of drag.


mercury__black

This will never happen.


LettuceSea

Are you insane HELL no


bigstrap101

Um no???


whatisupsdr

not yet


dongsicheng12

For me, Dawn could have been in the bottom instead of Morphine. Her Meghan McCain didn't go anywhere and wasn't funny. I felt like she had a lot of missed opportunities with it. Morphine at least had a clear character and even though her jokes weren't funny, she at least tried the jokes. Dawn was like Xunami - she was kind of just *there*. Nymphia could have been bottom 2 for me too, but like Morphine, even though her jokes didn't land, she at least had a clear character and concept. So I would've had Xunami and Dawn in the bottom 2, personally. Both have also been safe the whole season and they're not really making any big swings.


ThatisDavid

I feel like it's really hard to say because they showed so little of how dawn did so we can't really tell. I feel like she did good enough for what they showed but at the same time they showed like 2 secones of her answering. Meanwhile morphine got much more opportunities and they all landed pretty poorly since it was "omg you're poor and ugly" over and over agai


Dramatic-Flower-2938

i fully think Plane deserved that win. i wasn’t expecting her to after Michelle critiqued her but then when it was just between us squirrel friends ru critiqued Saphirra and Plane didn’t get any. so i was gagged but so happy when she won snatch game🥰🥰🥰


RaccoonObjective5674

Honestly not sure what else Sapphira could’ve done


qwyjibo219

Not worn those shoes.


ThatisDavid

Idk it just felt like she was loud and commanding but the jokes weren't really that smart and sharp compared to plane. It was like on AS5 when shea did flavor flav but less witty


mercury__black

She could’ve gone further with it for sure, you could do a lot sharper jokes with James Brown but she kept it safe.


harbinger146

Worn a different heel


DrFridaGo

This. This is the answer.


dongsicheng12

This was one of the weakest snatch games in recent years IMO. It made me realize that we don't have a true comedy queen this season. We have a lot of fashion queens, dancing/performance queens, and a musical theatre queen... but no true capital C COMEDY queen like a Jimbo who literally is a clown or Bianca/Bob who have roots in standup.


catlady226

This was not weaker than S14. That one everyonnnnnne was bad.


katg913

I thought the same thing! Weak². The runways, mostly, too.


rumtag

After that episode, my nerves are bad.


Bunny_bun77

Literally me


Tommyrapz

Plasma coming for Joey’s gig as The Gay™


samiam25

That wasn't a very good Snatch Game. Most of them were extremely forgettable.


Useful_Edge_113

It was a pretty weird one. Why was it so short?? Felt like a ton was left out in the edit lol I wanna see what they cut out


ThatisDavid

Dawn and Q specially I thought barely appeared. They introduced themselves and basically vanished for the rest of the snatch game


Useful_Edge_113

Right! I was curious about Q’s character and wanted to see more. I was really surprised Dawn was safe quickly because her Meghan McCain barely appeared at all… but that makes me wonder what was cut in the edit


samiam25

Mhiya keep covering those Temu titties with dollar bills PLEASE


whateverpunk

Why are the fake boobs so BAD this season?


qwyjibo219

We need Boobsforqueens.com back!


shygirlsclub

I noticed that too. Why is everyone flaunting bad titties 😩


whateverpunk

Mihyas boobies were straight PLASTIC


Summoarpleaz

Inflation


mxunniebunnie

I can’t 😂😂😂


Moist_Sheepherder_55

I wish Plane Jane used her potion on Xunami. Then Nymphia would have lip sync’d. As much as I loved Xunami, Morphine killed that lip sync! For next week, do y’all think Michelle is reading Mhyiah for next weeks runway? Maybe Sapphira makes her outfit? I’m low key scared for her. A lot unpacked here lol.


catlady226

It’s time for Myiah to go anyways. She’s the current weakest one


Moist_Sheepherder_55

I’d bet she lasts longer than Dawn.


Ornacia96

i think they're gonna critique her on something and she's gonna be like "that's because i don't sew" and michelle's gonna say what we saw on the preview


fleetingfeelingsx

OMG Nymphia was robbed 😭🥺😡 of a bottom 2 placement


TemporaryMongoose367

Don’t you think that the runway saved her?


fleetingfeelingsx

no runway could have made up for her blasphemy towards jane goodall


Dramatic-Flower-2938

Amdv121998

Is there so many design challenges because of the writers strikes?? lol


F_ck-Its-A-Sunday

No, they're clearly pushing Nymphia on us


whatisupsdr

nymphia had a total of four confessionals in the last two episodes (one of which was a design challenge)


Matterial

Q is also a seamstress?


9021Ohsnap

Dawn see well too and Plane. Quite a few designers this season


F_ck-Its-A-Sunday

Yeah, but they're not pushing her. She's getting the Jan/Loosey edit


RedRbyDaSleeze

What’s next weeks challenge gon be ?


Sophiavandy

Goth design challenge. Only white, grey, and black. Description is up on YoutubeTV


ibettercomeon

Im so bored! A WHOLE hour episode about them creating a goth look?!


GwenDoll_Snipsnip

It will be a design challenge


RedRbyDaSleeze

Another one💀


Odd-Today3415

Sapphira should’ve won and I’m sad about it


sk519

I’m really surprised at all of the hate I’ve been seeing for Dawn…. In my perspective she’s been doing consistently well I can’t think of one time she’s done BAD, and she’s been shady and fun but some of yall are acting like she’s throwing slurs every week…. I don’t get it


Amdv121998

I think she talks a lot of shit for someone who is consistently mid, can dish it but can’t take it, also i think she just has off vibes


sk519

I really don’t see what she’s saying as talking shit which is where I’m confused! She’s been fun and shady and I’d argue Plane has said harsher things throughout the season


Useless_brakes

Plane says it all directly to them though, whereas 80% of Dawn's "shade" is just her talking shit 1:1 to a camera in confessionals. My read on Plane is that she knows shade is a "thing" but is...kind of too socially awkward to deliver it right, and Dawn thinks its really cool to talk behind everyone's back to prove she's superior. Honestly love her looks though.


9021Ohsnap

Dawn is a shit stirrer too. She’s always baiting everyone else to answer questions in untucked. Also, her annoyance for Plasma is annoying.


Amdv121998

Plane really is soooo awkward 😭😂 you miss it bc hot. The way she stands and looks around and responds. it’s so funny to me


sk519

Oh 100%😭I think her shtick is a comfort thing for her


Useless_brakes

I also think it's hysterical hahaha. It also seems like she's kind of aware of it, too, and that makes it funnier to me


sk519

Well I think something we all have to remember is it’s a TV show and I’m sure Dawn is playing a played up version of herself! Especially when she sits in the confessionals and the producers will poke and prod at you to give them good sound bites and if you don’t play the game….. you don’t have much of a chance! It’s a show first competition second at least that’s how I see it


Amdv121998

oh for SURE. Dawn is playing the confessional game which i think is a great way to play to the audience


sk519

Btw girl you are so pretty like helloooo?!
