Tina Burner's redemption here is the stuff I love to see on All Stars. It's such a shame they're wasting her on this format lol. (We're gonna get to episode 10 and have 9 queens still left oh brother ðŸ˜). But she absolutely demolished the girls hdsjkf it's giving Nymphia's ball look lol. It wasn't even close.
NPBFAG's swimsuit being reminiscent of Jorgeous' winning look in S14... 💀
I'm not against an 'ugly' fashion moment but I'm not sure Lydia's look did it for me. I think it just didn't mesh. Then again, she was forced to use that material so I guess she did the best she could? I have to admit when I saw her in the variety show and then her first acting challenge I was resigned to her being a Aiden/Laila McQueen/early Trixie type, clearly going for something cool but still in the stage of figuring it out, but the producers ate with her because she really kinda does have the full package we've been missing on Drag Race. She's charismatic, she brings something new to the table, she's not someone's drag daughter, she can sew, she can do comedy, I don't remember her acting being that bad in the second acting challenge, she can lip sync without needing stunts. I worry a little that she's still a little half-baked because it hasn't been long enough since her season but we'll see how it goes. I really think she has the potential to snatch a crown if what she presents is refined enough. And Ru loves saying 'butthole' so there's that lol.
I literally cannot believe I'm saying this but I honestly might have given it to Kerri? It was very much relying on that body yes but the construction was still really stunning. Again, I guess the judging is thrown off by the fact that she was provided those materials, but idk. She did her big one.
Also can we talk about this ball not being a ball?! Hello?! The 8 ball pun was cute I guess but if there aren't gonna be three looks why even call it that?

Why does Ru refuse to update her wig?? She has the money to get at least a human hair 13x4 HD lace with bleached knots and plucked hairline, yet she wears these horrible synthetic 613 units with zero plucking?? Even my broke ass can afford that, and do the wig styling myself.

human hair isn’t everything girl, the styles ru goes for can only work w synthetics

u/Weightmonster May 28 '25
Question-Are wigs like Kerri’s made of really really long human hair Do people have to grow their hair that long for the wig?
Or is there a way to fuse shorter hair together and make it look like all one strand?

This is one of the funniest episode in a long time. Mistress's talking head, Jorgeous and NPFAG are hilarious.

It's a vocal crowd saying Mistress is mean, a bully and taking it too far so let me just say that her confessionals were the most fun parts of this episode (the only parts that made me laugh) and she's the biggest star on this cast

Agreed! I support people who are giving entertaining TV. Some fans need to go walk children in nature.

u/satanistbitch May 26 '25
Now that I think. There wasnt probably enough of that blue fábric for Mistress to do anything with it. It was enough for a cape or a skirt for Jorgeous, but that's one sleeve for Mistress.

Did anyone else see how Ru walked the runway? Looked like something happened between the two episodes, looked painful and very grandmaish in a non rude way.

u/lemeneurdeloups May 29 '25
It was that dress. Something unnatural and unholy was happening with the shoulders and waist and hips . . . 😖

u/rickettss May 27 '25
I thought so too, I also wondered if her dress was just a cumbersome/tight construction

u/Foamtoweldisplay May 26 '25
She is 64 so it could be something minor. Even small slips take a bit to recover from as we age. Hopefully she is okay.

u/Matthewrichvrd May 26 '25
Am I the only one who thinks Jorgeous interactions with Ru just aren’t genuine? Jorgeous is trying way to hard to like make a moment happen! She was like tripping over her words trying to get it out and be funny. It’s just not genuine and I feel I’m being gaslit into thinking it is!! lol

I didn’t love most of her runways on S17 but this one was easily top 2 for me for the episode (Tina was the clear winner tho).
Normally she needs a lot of editing but the point of this challenge was to use a lot of elements so it fit her aesthetic well. And I thought the garment actually had a clear POV in concept and execution (something she normally lacks) and felt streamlined all things considered.

LOL when Rupaul let the music play, Mistress was PISSED. She was just walking the runway and not bopping at all, I'm LIVING for it.
