RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars was back and Jimbo was celebrating her 4th win of the season! She shared that she eliminated Alexis Michelle because of her track record and the judges’ critiques. It turns out that Kandy Muse and Jessica Wild agreed with her, also choosing her lipstick. Turns out, Kandy had several alliances going on, but it didn’t impact her decision to send Alexis home anyway.
There was a complex mini-challenge this week. The queens had to make their own corset designs and pose for a photo shoot that would be inspired by a perfume that they had to create. Well, just a perfume ad. Jessica won the challenge!
RuPaul then shared that we were getting a makeover challenge with lesbians! Finally, giving queer women a spot on this show! Jimbo was paired with Amanda-Faye, Kandy was matched with Angie, and Lisa would work with Jessica.
It was fun to see the queens bond with their partners. Jessica and Lisa found common ground in their past with bullying, Angie and Kandy bonded over Kandy’s mom who is also a butch lesbian, and Amanda and Jimbo had the same sense of humor. However, they did not have the same sense of style, and that would cause problems for the pair along the way.
Of course, it’s never easy on Drag Race. The queens would also have to lip sync with their team to the hit, Charisma Peanut Butter, Bitch. You know, that RuPaul mashup.
While everyone was getting into drag, they had an open conversation about reclaiming the word dyke, which was really awesome to see. The moral of the story was that everyone in the LGBTQ+ community needs to stick together, especially during this political climate. It was really great to see them all coming together and having such a powerful conversation.
The queens were taking the stage in front of Ru, Michelle Visage, Carson Kressley, and Zooey Deschanel. On the runway, everyone looked amazing! It was clearly an all stars season because picking a winner and losers for this challenge was difficult. Kandy and her partner, Kookie Muse, definitely stood out in the lip sync too, so they deserved their win!
The lip sync assassin this week was none other than Canada’s Drag Race winner, the amazing Priyanka! She and Kandy faced off to Jumpin Jumpin by Destiny’s Child. It’s so fun to watch Priyanka perform. Also, that was her first time performing in front of the American judges even though she won the first season of Canada’s spin-off. She was so excited to win, which was so cute.
Since it was so late in the competition, if you weren’t in the top, you were in the bottom. Jimbo and Jessica had to vote for who they wanted to see go home, and of course, they picked the other queen, so elimination power went back into Kandy’s hands, and she chose to send Jessica packing. It was so incredible to see Jessica make it to the top 3. I would have loved to see her go all the way!
So, which team are you on? Team Jimbo or Team Kandy? And who are you voting for in the fame games? Sound off in the comments below!
