Alsaka won?

WTF? She didn't even try during her lip-sync. She won twice and all she did was mockery of "lip-syncing." guess "schtick" wins over talent.

Agreed. She didn't do much at all, she just had the unfair advantage of the Li'l Pound Cake makeup making everything she did do look funnier. I didn't think PhiPhi exactly blew the roof off the dump, either, but she was at least making a real effort.

It's the only thing that bothers me about this season; besides making the group eliminate each other! That was lame in so many ways! ;-/

Boring song? Cheryl Lynn's 'Got To Be Real' is a classic!

[–] fiero-49251 8 years ago

I preferred her other hit from '78, "Star Love!" I performed it in '87! 

She was fabulous, you know Rupaul wants her to win

Not only that but IMO, Alaska failed in her runway look. The concept was to come up with 2 looks in one (a la Violet Chatchki). Alaska came out completely covered, only to uncover and reveal her Lil' Pound Cake look. The first "look" was not a look at all. But Ru loved Lil' Pound Cake (which partly belonged to Lynesha Sparks) so the judges gave her a break and didn't criticize her non-first look.

I have to agree, that look was NOT 2 looks in one. That was ridiculous. Just because she did a "character" from a previous challenge doesn't mean it's great. I like Alaska but she isn't THAT impressive. She makes me laugh but as far as the challenges are going I feel she hasn't done much, it's just a plateau of sorts, nothing new is happening it's all the same thing from her. Idk, I guess I'm starting to feel "meh" about her so far, hopefully I'm wrong. But Katya is my favorite.

As I think of it now, I think as great as this twist is this season, none of the Queens are extremely impressing me... What's wrong with me?!

[–] Fantomauve 8 years ago

She should not have won. Then again, I've never been impressed by Alaska. One of my least favorite queen.

[–] Allenism 8 years ago

And some people doubt that the competition is slanted heavily in her favor.

I don't get Alaska's appeal so to see her reaping the benefits of a rigged race is just disheartening.

Alaska had something that phi phi will never have,a personality. Oh and she's a huge c u next Tuesday.

Say what now?

Oh, for Chuck's sake, here we go again. In order for something to be rigged, there has to be a false claim that the winner is chosen by viewer votes or a specific points system or something. There is no such claim on Drag Race. Ru picks the winner and she can do so based on any criteria she wants. She can base it on who actually did the best, or who she likes best, or who washed her car and walked her dog. It cannot be rigged, You may not think the eventual winner deserves it and you may be right, but that doesn't make it rigged.
